Chapter 461 The auction is over
"What! Even if you are a civil and military officer now, you can't catch people casually! What's wrong with what we said? Lin Fan! Explain it clearly to us!"
"Yes! What did we do wrong? Don't we just want some land? These lands should be given to us!"
A group of people shouted.
Lin Fan looked indifferently at the arrest of the ruthless people who were shouting, and then said, "This thousand acres of fertile land belongs to me. What do I want to deal with? When will it be your turn to comment?"
"I think this official has given you too much sweetness. When you were sleeping on the streets and eating leftovers, it was a gift from God to have a mu of land."
"Haha! Now that you have land, I am not here! Come and beat these people hard, each person will have thirty boards!"
Lin Fan said angrily.
Immediately afterwards, the yamen runners pressed the people to the ground and beat the thirty slabs in public. Now, the victims became honest because Lin Fan was right.
If Lin Fan hadn't been Lin Fan, they would still be sleeping on the streets and would not even be able to eat, so they could only eat what others had left.
"Today, there are 500 acres of fertile land that anyone can participate in the auction, and the gentry can do it, and the 500 acres are only for the poor people, and the gentry cannot participate in the auction."
"Now, the auction starts with the gentry. Starting with one tael of silver per acre of land, the highest bidder will choose first, and you can buy all 500 acres of land at one time."
Lin Fan said.
Those with the highest bidder can buy all the land at one time. In this way, the auction will inevitably be very fierce. After all, these gentry have more money.
Their thoughts are different from those of the people. With land, they can generate silver continuously, so they are naturally willing to bid for high prices.
"I'll pay a tael of silver per acre!"
"I'll pay two taels of silver per acre!"
"Three liang! I'll give three liang!"
The squire began to bid. At this time, Li Youcai stood up and sneered, "These lands are all fertile land. Do you not feel shiver when you pay such a small price? Lord Lin, I will pay ten taels of silver per acre, no one bids for it, I will ask for it all!"
hiss!
As soon as Li Youcai spoke, everyone present was stunned. Ten taels of silver per acre, and the five hundred acres would be five thousand taels of silver. How could Li Youcai be so rich?
For a moment, the gentry thought of Li Youcai's laundry detergent business. It seemed that it was a cooperation with Lin Fan. It was normal that he could make so much money.
Anyone with discerning eyes can see that Li Youcai was deliberately raising the price with the goal of showing kindness to Lin Fan.
"Mr. Li, the price you paid is really high. I am willing to pay eleven taels of silver per acre."
One person stood up.
Since Li Youcai got so many benefits from Lin Fan, he could do it himself, and it seemed worth it to buy the land at twice the extra price.
Especially the method of making gypsum, Lin Fan is going to Zhenzhou. If he can get gypsum from him, wouldn’t this business be even bigger?
"Haha! What Mr. Zhang thought was really beautiful. The price of eleven taels of silver per acre is not much. I am willing to pay 15 taels of silver per acre."
An old man said with a smile.
As the saying goes, the older one becomes, the more refined one is, so he naturally sees what Zhang Yuanwai means, and directly quotes fifteen taels of silver per acre, and wants to buy the opportunity to cooperate with Lin Fan.
"Haha! You guys underestimate me, Mr. Li. I offer twenty taels of silver per acre. If someone fights with me again, I will give up."
Li Youcai said with a smile.
Now all the competitors were silent. This was ten thousand taels of silver. They could take it out, but they almost lost everything.
Seeing that these people were no longer competing, Li Youcai was able to smile and said, "Mr. Lin, these 500 acres of land are mine, 10,000 taels of silver, I will make someone prepare it later."
"Okay, these 500 acres of land are yours, Mr. Li. The next auction will be for the poor people. The starting price is still one tael of silver per acre, and the higher the price will be the first."
Lin Fan said.
There will be no trouble for the poor people to bid for more money. It is obviously unrealistic to ask them to get more money. The price of one tael of silver per acre is the limit.
The most common people bought five acres, and the rest of the people also collected one tael of silver and bought one acre of land, so their future lives would be much better.
The five hundred acres of land were auctioned off, and Lin Fan looked at the hundred people standing outside the venue.
These people were the victims of the previous disaster. After getting the acre of land that Lin Fan gave them, their lives improved a lot and they were no longer civilians.
However, among them, some of them are greedy and take the lead in causing trouble. Now the person who leads the trouble has been taken down, and the remaining ones are pitiful people.
These hundred people must be handled properly. If they are not handled properly, they will most likely cause trouble after they leave.
The way to not want them to cause trouble is also very simple, that is, to make those thorns disagree with them.
"You were all victims of disasters before. Although you did something wrong, I will take care of you. Now, I still have a hundred acres of land in my hand. I will sell it to you for ten cents per acre. You can buy at most one acre of at least one acre."
Lin Fan said.
What!
Ten cents per acre!
When he heard what Lin Fan said, the hundred people's eyes widened and walked to the front excitedly, wanting to buy a mu.
Lin Fan received their copper coins and gave them land deeds to the fields. The people who had caused trouble before were beaten to the board and could not stand up on the ground.
They regret it now. If they didn’t take the lead in causing trouble at that time, they would still be able to get a mu of land now!
"Damn it! This Lin Fan is really hateful!"
One person roared angrily.
In less than a while, hundreds of acres of land were sold out, and the few thorny land were not obtained, so I was naturally extremely jealous.
The people who got the fields left with satisfaction and went home to farm well. These thorns were thinking of taking the lead in causing trouble, and they would not participate.
"Okay! People, today's auction ends here, and I'm going to leave now. Take care of the people. When things happen in the future, you must unite and never be fooled by the little profits."
Lin Fan said.
bite!
"Congratulations to the host for completing the task of educating the people and rewarding 20,000 people's heart value!"
Then, he was about to leave. When he turned around, he saw Li Ningxiang standing in the crowd and looking at him. He paused slightly, but left directly.
It’s not that he doesn’t like Li Ningxiang, it’s just that he’s not suitable.
When Lin Fan returned to the county government office, he learned something that Zhao Bucai issued many policies to benefit the people. The first county town to be tested was Siping County.
Chapter completed!
