Chapter 16: Temptation to build a pear garden

When the people from Yushu Village were happy, County Chenggong Xiao and Zhubo Zhan ignored their fatigue and asked someone to pull them to the dock with a car. The two of them sat in a car, squinting their eyes while resting.

"Brother Xiangyun, after you arrive at the place, you tell them the truth and tell them what they want to do. You must tell Zhang Zhong if you don't agree with it. Don't get it. I will give them the advice to ask them to find the ginseng. As long as the ginseng is found, things will be easier."

County Magistrate Xiao said to Zhan Zhubo that the two of them should arrange their respective division of labor at this time, otherwise they would be able to get the money and Zhang Zhong got it, and the two of them would not be worth the money.

Zhan Zhubo also knew this and said, "I will talk about it at that time. I have the responsibility to report some of the things that the county magistrate has done. As long as I want to report it, he will not dare to give it to the land. If you want to get it, you have to give the benefits of the two of us."

"Yes, that's it, not just that, but we have to share a portion of us when they make a deal here. No matter what the deal is, the money can be paid by ourselves."

County Chief Xiao found that he could not continue to put money out, so he could only find a way to make money. He didn't believe that those businessmen dared to disagree.

The two of them decided to go to bed after they lay there and slept for less than an afternoon. The two of them had not fully recovered. Zhan Zhubo kept muttering there in his sleep. Occasionally, a name by Zhang Zhong would appear. It seemed that he had lost a lot of money this time.

The merchants are indeed at the dock now. Erniu led them around and let them see what these places are suitable for. As for the place on the dock, they are not under their jurisdiction. Bigou's nephew wrapped it up and made it similar to the dock on Xiao Luoshui. The only regret is that there is no such mountain, and there is no more lake.

The place he chose was a wasteland. There are still some restaurants and warehouses built now. He is planning to rent out the warehouse while managing food and drinking. Everything is made according to Xiao Luoshui. People who are used to carry the living on the dock will come to Huayuan County in the future, which can provide Huayuan County with many job locations.

At this time, Erniu was talking to those masters about what would happen if the development here is good in the future. The merchants actually didn't have to listen to Erniu, and they knew that there was an example of Xiao Luoshui.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have come here to find County Magistrate Xiao and Master Zhan. Who knew that when they came, they could take over the fertile land as wasteland in just a while, but the new county magistrate saw through and everything was over.

Erniu is the new county magistrate, and the merchants also knew that when they brought them out to see the place today, they became more and more aware that the new county magistrate just didn't want to give the benefits to the magistrate and the county magistrate, but they didn't want them to occupy land.

"In the future, the ships here are not only used to deliver goods and recruit people, but also help people there to deliver letters to the capital, especially some talented men. The things they write are not easy to let others know. Our restaurants here are responsible for spreading them. Every few days, they will invite some talented men to gather everywhere and follow them down. It's all money."

Erniu continued to say there, the merchants really didn't know this, and they became fascinated as they listened. Erniu continued, "Also, we need to build a place like the pear garden in the future. Maybe the emperor will come and have a look when he is happy. Then this place will be different. You have to think about where to choose."

"This, brother Erniu, if it is also called Liyuan, would the emperor be unhappy?" When a businessman listened, he felt that countless money was about to be poured on him, but he was a little worried about his name.

"Then let's change the name. Then we will invite you to compete in the Liyuan in the capital. They are not ordinary people, they are singing, dancing, playing, etc., and not many people who want to listen to them will take out hundreds of quotations, right?"

Erniu continued as Zhang Xiaobao taught, the merchants were all thinking about how much money they could make then, but they didn't expect how many people were here.

In this entertaining atmosphere, the merchants had forgotten the price they had to pay. The merchants who had just asked him could not help but ask in a blunt manner: "Brother Erniu, what do you need your master to do? If it is money, we will count it and we will summarize it. It won't be too difficult."

Other businessmen also thought of this, and looked at Erniu there and waited for him to give a number. They thought that this was what the new county magistrate asked Erniu to bring them over.

Erniu shook his head, "What is my master's identity, don't you know yet? Zhangjiazhuangzi belongs to my master, and Xiao Luoshui belongs to my master. How much money can you take out? What you have to do is other things. This occupies land, not the final word of my master.

There are also county magistrates and masters in the yamen, especially masters. He can report some things directly to the upper house. Do you see if there are any fertile land on both sides? Only this wharf occupies saline-alkali land, you have to find a way to do it."

When Erniu said that the merchants were in a dilemma, they really didn’t know what to do. If they gave money, how many people would have to give it to them to be satisfied.

At this moment, County Chenggong and Zhan Zhubo's car came over. The two of them didn't care whether the car was bumpy or not. They slept in the car so much that it was so fragrant. The car stopped and was still snoring there.

The servant plucked up the courage to wake up the two of them, and then wiped their faces with a wet wipe when they came.

"It's time now?" County Chief Xiao wiped his face a few times and asked.

"If you say it to the master, it will be here. In two quarters of an hour. If you leave the car, you will see that the brightly lit place in front is the dock here. The merchants should be there. Should you tell me the little one over and let them come over, or should you go there in person?"

The servant said respectfully and pointed at the other side with his hand.

County Magistrate Xiao hesitated for a moment and said, "I'd better wait for it to go there and eat something."

At this time, Zhan Zhubo ignored it and left everything to County Magistrate Xiao to arrange. The two of them sorted out their clothes and the car continued to walk there.

The merchants are almost drunk now, and they keep pulling Erniu to ask about some things, such as what the county magistrate likes, what the people in their families like, etc., and began to think of ways to do this.

"Erniu, how about you sending your master a beautiful concubine? The top scholar, I heard that there is only one wife, and one is enough. From now on, it will be a big family. How many of them will be needed to spread the branches and leaves."

A businessman thought of the most common method, not giving money, but giving it to others, and looking for a beautiful woman to give it to Zhang Zhong.

Erniu shook his head like a rattle. "If you really dare to give away a woman, then don't think about occupying any land here. The master will drive you out of Huayuan County. If you want to take this road on a boat in the future, you won't be able to take this road."

Erniu knows the master and cannot find another woman. He treats his wife well, and there is also a son like the young master who protects his mother. No other woman dares to enter the house. This matter must not be done.

The merchant who spoke this idea was obviously disappointed, and then he remembered carefully that the people on the dock had already discovered the car coming over there at this time and asked from the side: "Are there any other people you have come over there?"

Everyone was eating and drinking on the dock, looking in the direction the man pointed. Sure enough, two cars came towards the side, one in front of the car, and there were lanterns carrying a little far away. They couldn't see clearly what the words were written. When the car was approaching, they realized who was coming.

The merchants felt it was difficult to deal with. They originally wanted to get the matter of the county magistrate first and then find the county magistrate. At this time, the two of them found this place and must have known that Erniu, the county magistrate's family, brought them here. Could it be that the land occupation matter was about to be completed?

While the merchants were thinking about it, the people on the dock had already roared the boat to pick it up. Two people came down from the carriage there, looking at it with the light of the lanterns. Who were they?

Erniu saw the uneasiness of the merchants and persuaded him, "It's okay, I'll go back and take a look. You tell them, it's just right. If you understand them, then my master's place will be easy."

"Thank you, brother Erniu, brother Erniu is wronged. Let's talk to County Chief Xiao and Master Zhan." A businessman finally let go of his concern when he saw Erniu go to the back.

Not long after Erniu left, the boat came with the Lord Bo and the county magistrate. The merchants stood up one after another and said compliments.

"How is it? How is it here?" County Chief Xiao asked deliberately.

The businessmen had just let go of their hearts and raised them up again, wondering what it means to be here for the two of them.

The businessman who just talked to Erniu replied: "Just look, no matter which place you choose, you will have to go to the county magistrate and Lord Bo. The two magistrates are coming just now. I'll have something to eat together."

County Magistrate Xiao looked at the dishes that had been eaten almost the same, but did not reveal them. He nodded and said, "Okay, I don't know how to find the county magistrate after you have chosen the land? You must know that the county magistrate's family is not short of money."

"What the county magistrate said is that I am worried too. I also asked the adults to help me say a little. I will thank you very much. The five thousand guan a piece of paper I promised would not be missing." Another businessman said by the side as he took the opportunity.
