Chapter 552 - 552: Not Selling
The Zhao Family was arrogant, and they were the County Magistrate’s good friends, but so what? He was leaving the country soon, and he would be out of their control.
The land agent was very angry about the Zhao Family’s behavior as well.
The good field was worth eight liang per mu, but Old Master Zhao tried to take it to five liang for one mu. That was blatant robbery!
The land agent had wanted to ask Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan about it and they ran into each other accidentally on the same day. That’s how the land became theirs.
Since the Zhao Family was playing a trick, then the land was not going to be sold to them.
The land agent did not have any specific intentions towards Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan. Those who could offer the proper price would become the owner. So, he was being totally reasonable.
He had no idea what Old Master Zhao had done behind his back.
So, when the housekeeper asked him about that, he answered him calmly,
without trying to humiliate the Zhao Family.
The land agent would have told the housekeeper who bought the land if the buyers had not been Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan. But the couple had repeatedly stressed that the agent should keep the secret for them, and even entrusted him to sign the contract.
So, the land agent did not answer his question.
The agent said something vague, and the housekeeper asked no more.
The two of them waved each other goodbye.
The housekeeper had a stinky face as he headed back to the mansion with the news.
Old Master Zhao turned furious. He struck the table and cursed. “Who in the hell bought my land? Look into the matter and tell me who dared to steal my business!”
He said sinisterly, “l am going to make him pay!’
He had been so confident and done a lot of work just to make sure he could get the land. But now, it turned out to be totally opposite from what he had expected.
He had thought that the land agent would get anxious and try to sell him the land after being ignored for three days, so that he could be easily persuaded.
But someone else cut in.
Old Master Zhao was very wealthy and always had a very smooth career. So, he became really arrogant after making so much money.
Moreover, the land agent did not want to reveal the buyer, so he was sure that this buyer knew about his intention of buying the land, thus humiliating him by cutting in.
He was going to find him!
He was not stupid. He was very smart!
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan had always kept the secret about them buying land at the Zhang Village. But if someone wanted to look into this matter carefully, they would more or less be able to find out the answer.
Ding Erzhu and his team would not say a thing, and those from the Zhang Village would not think deeply if a story was woven and told to them.
Housekeeper did not delay and sent out his men to look into this matter on the same day.
After a few days, they finally found the accurate news.
The housekeeper learned about it on the day when Shao Yunduan accompanied Master Yun and his servants leaving the county. He told everything to his Old Master Zhao.
Old Master Zhao sneered. “Shaoding Village? Those poor people who make a small fortune… I think they should die! How dare they steal the land from me? A Cultivated Talent? Who does he think he is?!”
Old Master Zhao showed a look of greed.. “You said that they have more than 200 mu of good fields and one tea mountain of over 500 mu?”
