Prepare for Operation!
Qingfeng Yang had already determined that the pond water was the source of the poison, and the banana was also poisonous.
Therefore, the bailiffs quickly cut down all the plantains and filled up the pond.
Li Ming's heart was already bleeding when he saw the banana he had painstakingly planted destroyed just like that.
He was also unwilling to accept Qingfeng Yang's judgment, but at least he was able to keep his life.
Li Ming had no choice but to acquiesce to this trial.
The surrounding commoners saw this scene and started to point at Qingfeng Yang.
At this moment, Qingfeng Yang, Hao Chen, and Delin Zhang had already disguised themselves and hid in the crowd.
"Lord Yang, this time, you've really solidified your reputation as a fatuous official.”Delin Zhang smiled at Qingfeng Yang.
"As long as the truth is revealed in the end, there's no harm in being a muddleheaded official.”Qingfeng Yang smiled.
Li Ming looked at the mess on the ground and thought about how he still had to compensate Li Laosan for the 200 taels of silver. Li Ming instantly had a frown on his face.
His entire fortune was only eighty taels of gold, how could he have the money to compensate Li Laosan?
Unless he sold his houses.
Although Ming Li was very unwilling to sell his ancestral home, Ming Li had no choice. He immediately wrote a notice to sell the house and pasted it at the door.
The commoners outside the house looked at the notice and sighed.
"Sigh, this Mr. Li is really unlucky. His good intentions turned into bad things. Now, he even wants to sell his ancestral business.”
"There's nothing we can do about it. After all, we have to compensate Li Laosan 200 taels of silver. If we don't sell our ancestral business, we can't afford it.”
"I really don't know how this Lord Yang sentenced him. He actually sentenced him so muddle-headedly, it's too disappointing.”
………
When Chen Hao and the others heard these discussions, their expressions did not change.
Although the notice had been posted, no one had asked about it yet.
Qingfeng Yang couldn't help but feel anxious, but Hao Chen was calm.
No one asked now, but it didn't mean that no one would ask later.
Two days had passed. Hao Chen and Qingfeng Yang waited from morning till night, but no one came to ask.
"Constable Chen, are you sure that someone will come and buy this courtyard?”Qingfeng Yang couldn't help but ask.
Why was this different from what he had expected?
If no one really came to buy it, then he would really be doing something stupid.
"Lord Yang, don't worry, someone will buy it.”Chen Hao took a sip of tea and said calmly.
There was a huge treasure hidden underground. Otherwise, two people would not have died alive.
Qingfeng Yang heard Hao Chen's words. Although he was a little suspicious, he could only wait. After all, Hao Chen wouldn't let him down.
Soon, the third day arrived. Hao Chen and Qingfeng Yang had just arrived near Ming Li's house when they saw Ming Li auctioning his house.
Qingfeng Yang was overjoyed. Someone had indeed come to buy it.
At this moment, the third round of bidding had already begun.
This was because there were only three thatched huts in Liming's house, and the pool in front of the door was poisonous.
The location was also relatively remote, and the starting price was not high.
There weren't many people who participated in the auction, only three or four of them. One of them was the famous local tycoon Liu.
Chen Hao learned from the people around him that the bid had already reached 250 taels of silver.
Although the others were also rich, they wanted to take advantage of it.
However, they didn't expect Mr. Liu to be interested in this piece of land as well. Therefore, when the others saw the price, they also flinched.
"Do you still want to raise the price? If not, I'll buy it." Mr. Liu looked around and said.
His tone was arrogant and smug, as if he was completely at ease.
The surroundings were silent. No one raised the bid.
Li Ming saw that 250 taels was enough compensation, and there was no one bidding around, so he thought of closing the deal.
Just as Li Ming decided to close the deal, a Chang 'an accent sounded.
"Three hundred taels, I'll buy it." A man walked over and said. From his appearance, he should be a merchant from Chang 'an.
Mr. Liu didn't expect that someone would go against him. When he saw that the person was a merchant from Chang 'an, he smiled contemptuously.
"Four hundred taels." Mr. Liu said calmly.
"Five hundred taels!" The Chang 'an merchant said as if he wanted to argue with Mr. Liu.
"Six hundred taels!" Rich Liu was not to be outdone and directly added 100 taels online.
"Seven hundred taels!" The Chang 'an merchant did not concede.
"Eight hundred taels!" Mr. Liu continued to raise the price without changing his expression.
………
Very quickly, the price had already risen to a thousand taels.
The surrounding commoners and even Ming Li were surprised. The house had actually been flipped so many times!
One had to know that there were only a few broken cottages here, and the pool in front of the door was poisonous.
It could actually be sold for 1,000 taels of silver. This was simply too unbelievable.
The Chang 'an merchant did not expect Mr. Liu to bid 1,000 taels of silver. At this moment, the Suzhou merchant did not raise the price.
In the end, these houses were bought by Mr. Liu for 1,000 taels.
The surrounding commoners discussed animatedly.
"Is there something wrong with Mr. Liu? This 1,000 taels of silver could buy a large courtyard in Chang 'an.”
"I don't know. Maybe I can be arrogant because I have money.”
"I suspect that Mr. Liu might have gone crazy. When he comes to his senses, he might regret it to death.”
…………
The surrounding commoners were talking about it, but Hao Chen and Qingfeng Yang revealed a knowing smile.
Rich Liu directly took out a thousand taels of silver and gave it to Ming Li. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Rich Liu had come prepared.
However, when Ming Li saw that his house had been sold, he was in a hurry to compensate. He didn't think too much about it and directly signed the land deed.
The next day, Mr. Liu found workers and said that they wanted to tear down these broken cottages and make a big house.
However, the villagers realized that these three thatched cottages had not been demolished. Mr. Liu had first ordered people to build a two-foot-high wall around this area.
It surrounded the thatched cottage and the pond.
When Chen Hao saw this, he knew that Rich Liu was about to take action.
"Constable Chen, should we start the operation?”Qingfeng Yang asked Hao Chen.
After all, everything before him was exactly as Chen Hao had expected.
Qingfeng Yang admired Hao Chen even more.
Ding! Qingfeng Yang's favorability towards you 10, points 50!
"We can move now." Chen Hao said.
Everything was going according to his plan.
Next, he could catch a turtle in a jar!
Qingfeng Yang heard this and immediately asked Delin Zhang to start the deployment.
Zhang Delin nodded repeatedly and turned around to return to the Yamen to begin the deployment.
