Chapter 70 Qian’s Judgment
Jiang Ning slapped his forehead, almost forgetting the business, and hurriedly followed Zhou to the village. On the way, he met the three old men, Yang, who must have received the news and were about to go there.
There were already many villagers in the yard outside the ancestral hall. Men, women, old and young gathered in a circle. The children who used to look like monkeys were now one after another. They were all hiding behind the adults' buttocks, instead of peeking at a few with their eyes. The cadres just gathered together and whispered.
Jiang Ning took a look, yo! He was still an old acquaintance, so he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Master Cha, when will it be announced?"
Gao Yong's eyes lit up when he saw it was Jiang Ning, and he spoke very politely, "I wonder if Qian's family is here?"
Old man Yang pushed aside the crowd, "Here he comes! The old man is here! I am her father-in-law. My son is injured and can't get off the ground. My grandson is too young and can't make the decision. I just want to listen!"
Gao Yong looked at Old Man Yang's age, and a flash of sympathy flashed in his eyes, "Let's do it! I'll just say it. According to the investigation, the county magistrate has confirmed that the Mao brothers are human traffickers. The villagers of Rongshu Village have been successful in catching the human traffickers. They will be rewarded with ten taels of silver. Rongshu Villager Yang Dou killed Mao Erli with his life and was rewarded with 2 taels of silver for his meritorious service. Although Qian did not intend to injure anyone to death, it was a fact that he deliberately let go of the Mao brothers for his own personal gain. It was a serious mistake and he was sentenced to three years in prison. , I hope he wakes up and never does it again.”
After Gao Yong finished speaking, he saw that most of the villagers were confused and had not yet reacted. He said it again concisely, "It means that the villagers of Rongshu Village will be rewarded with ten taels of silver for catching the bad guys. Yang Dou will be rewarded with two taels of silver for killing Mao Erli." "Qian's crime was not murder, but it is true that she let the bad guys go. She will be sentenced to three years in prison."
“Oh no, no, no, will Qian’s imprisonment affect our Rongshu Village?”
“Is it ten taels of silver for a village or ten taels for a family?”
“What sweet dream are you having! Return ten taels of silver to one household!”
The villagers started arguing.
Gao Yong frowned slightly and answered some key questions, "It's ten taels of silver for a village. Also, Qian's mistake is not big or small, because it didn't cause much damage to others, so A gentle punishment will not have a bad impact on Rongshu Village, so it will be okay now!”
Gao Yong handed the ten taels of silver to the village chief in front of everyone, and immediately went to Jiang Ning with the other two people, "Ms. Jiang, can we start the construction of the house that I discussed with you before?"
Jiang Ning also wanted to tell him about this matter. Since Gao Yong spoke first, she nodded immediately, pointed at Old Man Yang and said, "This is my father-in-law. He is responsible for building the house. We have already built a workshop at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain. Gao The head catcher can go and sit there.”
When a group of people arrived at the workshop, Gao Yong only took one look and marveled again and again, "Ms. Jiang is still amazing. We didn't even have this yard before when we came here to investigate! It didn't take long for it to reach this scale!"
Jiang Ning covered her mouth and chuckled, "Isn't this the old man who is anxious? After all, it is a big matter of making money. Before it gets really cold, we can do as much as we can. It's really inconvenient to do anything when it's really cold. "
Gao Yong strongly agrees.
An old man who followed him muttered: "Look at the fired tiles and floor tiles. They are indeed no worse than those from brick kilns in the county, but the price is half cheaper."
"Yeah, Uncle Niu, I just said I found a treasure!" Gao Yong looked proud. Seeing Jiang Ning's curiosity, he introduced: "This is the county government's widower. Everyone calls him Uncle Niu. This is Uncle Niu's son Niu Yiwu." , my little brother. "Jiang Ning bowed quickly.
"Ms. Jiang, you're welcome. I also want to build a yard for my boy, but I am short of money and have no ideas. I recently heard that Gao Yong said that your family can take over the job of building a house. I came here to have a look. I don't know. When will Mrs. Jiang take over my job?”
Although Niu Yunshan is a widower, he looks more like a doctor. He speaks unhurriedly, is gentle and polite, and has a natural humility.
Jiang Ning hurriedly looked at Old Man Yang, "Dad, you have to discuss this matter. I said it can't be done accurately."
The most capable person that Old Man Yang has ever come into contact with in his life is the village chief. He never thought that one day he would be able to do business with people from the yamen in such a friendly manner. He was so nervous that he swallowed his saliva and stammered for a long time before he could finish it. Speak neatly.
In the end, the result of everyone's discussion was that Old Yang took over Gao Yong's job first. Gao Yong wanted to marry his son and planned to build a row of four new houses, just like the Jiangning family. It is much easier to connect four houses than to build four houses separately. According to the speed of the three of them, if two more people are called in, it can be completed in half a month.
After finishing the work in half a month, I immediately went to the Niu family. The situation of the Niu family was different from that of the Gao family. They were planning to build a new yard, with two front and back entrances. The second entrance yard was divided into four small yards. All the houses together had about thirty rooms. They Three people will definitely not be able to finish the job. If they want to finish it before spring, they will have to call on at least a dozen people to help.
There happened to be a lot of idle men in the village at this moment. Yang Laosan went to talk to a few reliable young people in the village, and he quickly settled on the people who would do the work.
While everyone was discussing, Li came over with a gloomy face and said, "Old man, hurry up and follow me to the west of the village. The Qian family is making trouble."
"What the hell? The Qian family still has the nerve to make trouble!" Old Man Yang spat angrily and strode out.
Yang Laosan was worried that something might happen, so he hurriedly followed him. Before leaving, he shouted to Jiang Ning, "Sister-in-law, please find the village chief. The Qian family is not easy to deal with!"
Jiang Ning ran away without a trace before Yang Laosan agreed. She had no choice but to grit her teeth and follow him out. Finally, she invited the village chief to the west of the village. From a distance, she saw a crowd of people surrounding Yang Dou's house.
She followed the village chief in and heard Qian's mother, Chen, cursing in a loud voice, "You Yang family are evil-hearted, shameless, rotten-hearted! My good daughter has been put in jail by you, and this matter is not over yet." , It’s definitely not over!”
"Bah! You, the Qian family, don't know how to educate your daughter and are causing harm to my son and grandson. I haven't gone to Qian's Village to settle the accounts with you, but you have the nerve to come to my house to make trouble! It's not over anymore, right! Then go to the county government office and ask the county government for help. Let’s see if it’s our old Yang family’s fault or your Qian family’s shame!” Mrs. Li’s mouth is not as stupid as Mrs. Chen’s, nor is her voice smaller than Mrs. Chen’s.
The Qian family did not respond after listening to Li's words, and kept accusing the Yang family of harming the Qian family. This was clearly a case of blackmailing the Yang family.
"I don't care. If we don't give our family an explanation for this matter today, I will stay here and not leave!" Mrs. Chen sat down shamelessly, with a posture that was clearly meant to fight to the death with Mr. Li.
Li was so angry that she wanted to take action, but the Qian family, father and son, were watching eagerly. There was only an old man and a young son on her side. How could she beat the Qian family? People in the village would help, but because many people in Qian's village were hostile to their family. If someone has an opinion, Mr. Li also wants to be shameless and cannot do anything like begging for help in a low voice.
