Chapter 205 Can't Be Scared Away
"Who wants to buy the wasteland in Lao Gu's backyard?"
Without waiting for Tong Huaqiong to reply, the village chief Liu Tielan stepped into the Gu family's gate.
Liu Tielan was helping Tong Huaqiong hire people to farm the land, so he hurried to Tong Huaqiong to talk about this and to look at the sterilizer and insecticide. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Boss Qian's luxurious carriage and knew that someone had come to Tong Huaqiong's house.
When I heard someone in the house say that they wanted to buy the wasteland behind Tong Huaqiong's yard, I got very excited.
Why do you say that?
Because the land behind Tong Huaqiong's yard is said to be the burial place of the innocent souls who died in the war.
When residential land was distributed in Qinghewan in the past, no one wanted that piece of wasteland, for fear that wronged spirits would come to claim their lives.
Tong Da Jiao had a bad reputation in the clan back then. When Xu Yong's father was the village chief, he took money from the head of the Gu clan and specially assigned Tong Da Jiao's family here.
I thought Tong Da Jiao would make a fuss, but I didn't expect Tong Da Jiao to build a yard here without saying a word.
According to Tong Dajiao, having his own house and yard without any neighbors to bother him is exactly what he wants.
As for the wronged ghost, she didn't kill the person, so naturally she wouldn't come to claim his life.
Every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. If you want to find the person who killed them, then find the person who killed them.
Originally, Tong Huaqiong wanted to tell He Chao and Boss Qian that there were remains buried in the wasteland in the backyard, but before she could open her mouth, Liu Tielian came into the yard.
No, she had to tell them about the wasteland and dissuade Boss Qian from becoming her neighbor.
Tong Huaqiong said hurriedly, "Sister Hong, the wasteland behind my house is where the dead souls from the war are buried. I'm afraid the mud is full of bones and it's hard to build a house."
Mrs. Hong is a sickly beauty, I'm afraid she will be scared.
Tong Huaqiong apologized and said that in order to drive Boss Qian away, she had to reveal the truth.
Even if Boss Qian didn't reveal it today, she would tell He Chao.
She had the same idea as Tong Dajiao that every wrong has its perpetrator and she was not afraid of the wronged spirits seeking revenge.
If we were to trace the wronged souls, throughout the long river of history, I'm afraid there are wronged souls everywhere in Qinghe Bay, and there must be piles of bones buried in everyone's yard.
Just because she doesn't care doesn't mean others don't care.
People like Hong who are in poor health would be more reluctant to live with wronged spirits.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Hong smiled palely and said, "There are dead people in every dynasty and every piece of land. As long as I can be neighbors with the Dong family, I am not afraid, even if it is a cemetery."
Tong Huaqiong: “…”
She underestimated Hong's ability to bear it.
I didn't expect that this frail beauty is actually gentle on the outside but strong on the inside.
He Chao said: "If there are indeed wronged souls inside, we can build a house to dig them out and pray for their salvation, and find a place to bury the remains so that they can pass away and reincarnate as soon as possible. Wouldn't that be better?"
What's the big deal.
When he was a child, he fled from famine and slept next to a dead person.
Boss Qian clapped his hands and said, "Old He is right. I will pay for the salvation and invite a few monks to chant for 49 days to send them off. When they see our sincere hearts, they will not only not harm us but will bless us."
"Shopkeeper Tong, you don't have to worry about us. You are not afraid living here, so why should we be afraid? Besides, I think this is a good place for Feng Shui. For example, Shopkeeper Tong, you can open a shop by yourself and raise a son who is good at studying and a daughter who is talented in business. So I have decided that if your village chief agrees to give me this piece of land, I will build a house here."
Tong Huaqiong: “…”
These three people spoke the same truth and made all the sense, what else could she say?
Maybe it was because she was reborn into Tong Da Jiao's body. She didn't know where Tong Da Jiao's soul was wandering at the moment. She was shocked by He Chao and Boss Qian's proposal to liberate the soul of the deceased.
She really hopes that the innocent souls buried in the wasteland can be freed from their suffering and go to a place of light and freedom.
It would be better to go to the place where she lived in her previous life, where there is peace, equality and freedom. I hope they can sit in bright classrooms, have enough food to eat, and live a life without fear.
Liu Tielian heard the voices in Tong Huaqiong's room and did not dare to come in for a while.
After listening in the yard, I couldn't help but go into the upper room.
He is the village chief, after all. Since everyone is willing to buy the wasteland where the wronged souls are buried, he has to step forward.
"Dashu Niang, your guest wants to buy wasteland?" Liu Tielian asked.
Of the three guests in the room, he only knew Mr. Qian, the owner of Fengle Building.
"Boss Qian, are you going to buy land?" Liu Tiesuan asked Boss Qian directly.
"You want us to buy a residential plot." Boss Qian was quite indifferent to his fame. He stood up and shook hands with Liu Tiejian, making Liu Tiejian feel embarrassed.
Tong Huaqiong said, "Village Chief, you've come at the right time. This is Shopkeeper He and his wife from my shop. Shopkeeper He and Boss Qian want to buy the wasteland behind my yard as a homestead to build a house. They want to become villagers of Qinghewan."
Boss Qian continued, "That's right. I want to discuss with the village chief whether he is willing to accept us as Qinghewan villagers. If possible, Shopkeeper He and I plan to buy the wasteland behind Shopkeeper Tong's yard."
Liu Tielian became excited.
Mr. Qian, the boss of Fengle Building, is second only to Mr. Huang in his reputation for philanthropy.
He welcomed with open arms such a kind-hearted person to be a villager of Qinghewan.
How else could he open the most luxurious restaurant in Yanguan Town? From the way he spoke, it seemed that he wanted to invite monks to pray for the souls of those who died unjustly in the wasteland.
Liu Tielian said, "Why not? You come to live in Qinghewan, and as the village chief, I welcome you."
"As for the wasteland you mentioned, Dashu Niang has told you all about it. Since you don't mind, I, as the village chief, will give that piece of land to you two. After all, that piece of land is ownerless, and it would not be appropriate for me, as the village chief, to sell it and collect money. The money from that piece of land can be used as a gift to the wronged souls in it for salvation."
Boss Qian said, "The village chief is very generous. I will give some money to the village to repair the ancestral hall. After all, I will be a resident of Qinghewan in the future, so I have to contribute."
Liu Tiejian was so happy that his teeth were not visible and he said, "Boss Qian, you are too polite."
Tong Huaqiong simply couldn't bear to watch. Liu Tielian, where is your dignity as the village chief? You are bowing down for money!
So quickly, I mistook Boss Qian for a villager from Qinghewan.
Boss Qian continued, "The reason why I, the village chief, was willing to come to Qinghewan to buy a homestead was because of the recommendation of Shopkeeper Tong. After coming to Qinghewan, I really think this place is good."
Boss Qian wished that his relationship with Tong Huaqiong as neighbors would be destroyed.
Sure enough, Liu Tielian looked at Tong Huaqiong with eyes full of appreciation and gratitude.
Tong Da Jiao made great efforts in helping him to gain a firm foothold as the village chief, and brought such a generous and wealthy man to the village.
After Liu Tielian finished talking to Boss Qian, he looked at He Chao again.
This person looks a little unfamiliar. I just heard Tong Da Jiao say that he is the owner of Taohua Dessert.
He seemed to have heard that Tong Da Jiao went to Pingchuan County and hired someone to be the shopkeeper, and he was afraid that this was the person.
Of course, He Chao had been to Qinghe Bay twice and had never met Liu Tieshan, so Liu Tieshan was naturally a stranger to him.
Tong Huaqiong said to Liu Tiejian, "Manager He and his wife used to live in Pingchuan County, and they want to move their household registration to our village. Village chief, do you think it's possible?"
