No matter what happened next, Qin Xi’s application was finally approved. Moreover, it was approved so fast that even Sun Song was surprised.
Sun Song was more impressed by her ability, especially when he saw the signature and date on the application document. It was actually signed by the Director of the Land Bureau himself.
This was simply jaw-dropping.
Now, Qin Xi had the right to use the mountain. Moreover, the price was 80,000 less than before. This was a token of appreciation from Dan Fang to Qin Xi for helping him find his son.
Qin Xi was happy that she saved 80.000. With that money, she installed a landline for her family and the village office.
This made Liu Shuan beaming with smiles.
After leaving the town government, Qin Xi went to visit Xia Tangxin’s grandmother and helped her treat her illness. She then wrote a prescription and returned to Shangwan Village in a good mood.
Shangwan Village was very quiet today. To be precise, it had been very quiet for the past two days.
At least, at the entrance of the village, there were no more old people sitting there gossiping or mischievous children playing. The entire village seemed to be asleep.
“Yo, Xi is back?”
When she passed by a family, an old lady in the courtyard greeted her happily and even lovingly called her by her nickname.
Qin Xi had a good memory. She had never interacted with this old lady before, let alone been close to her. Why was this old lady so friendly and nice to her?
However, since the old lady had greeted her, it was only polite for her to greet back. She smiled sweetly and said, “Hello!”
However, she realized that it was not only the old lady who greeted her warmly. Everyone who walked past her and saw her would greet her equally warmly. Those who did not know better would think that they were Qin Xi’s relatives!
In fact, Qin Xi didn’t know any of them.
It was no wonder. Ever since she transmigrated, she had been very busy and had no time to get to know the villagers.
As for the original Qin Xi, she knew very little about the outside world. When she was young, she was allowed to run around outside. Later on, she was enslaved and held in captivity by the Qin family. She rarely came out. It was unlikely for the villagers to know Qin Xi, let alone greet her.
Actually, it was obvious that the reason why these people were so enthusiastic towards Qin Xi was because they knew Qin Xi was the one who bought the mountain.
After all, it would cost at least a few hundred thousand yuan to buy an entire mountain. The news that Qin Xi had earned nearly a million yuan spread like wildfire in these villages.
Some greedy people even attempted to sneak into the Han family to steal at night. Unexpectedly, when they arrived outside the Han family’s courtyard, they started to run around in circles. This was all done by Jiu Yuan. This was also the reason why Qin Xi could leave the village for a few days without having to worry.
At the Han family.
Luo Xiujuan, who was about to send some herbal tea to Han Dazhu and Han Shi, saw Qin Xi coming back and immediately went up to welcome her. When Qin Xi saw how concerned Luo Xiujuan was about her, she felt a lump in her throat.
She looked at the big bucket of water in Luo Xiujuan’s hand and took it with a smile. “Mom, let me deliver it. I need to go and take a look at the mountain anyway.”
“Alright!” Seeing that she was in good spirits, Luo Xiujuan agreed.
Qin Xi took a small path. There was a steep slope here and a small cave in the middle of the steep slope.
Due to the steep terrain, very few people came here. It was said that the cave was inhabited by snakes, so the villagers often warned their children to stay away from it.
