“The name of the village is auspicious. Our future must be very blessed.” Madam He smiled brightly when she saw the name of the village.

The name of the village was secondary. The main thing was that they finally had somewhere to settle.

“Yes, Mother. Our future must be better,” Ning Yue replied with a smile.

The guide led them to the very center of Laifu Village, where the natives lived.

The village chief of Laifu Village was a middle-aged man who looked slightly older than Ning Bai.

“This is the village chief of Laifu Village, Yang Guang. This is the village chief of the Ning Family Village that the magistrate told you about, Ning Bai.”

The magistrate had actually informed him beforehand!

Ning Yue saw the benefits of the bronze token again. At the same time, this person’s identity was even more suspicious.

Thinking of this, Ning Yue looked at Gu Yu again. Gu Yu definitely knew that person’s identity, but he was unwilling to say it.

Forget it. She would ask another time.

Ning Yue came back to her senses and saw that Yang Guang was already checking the official letter.

The more Yang Guang read it, the more surprised he was. This group of people’s accommodation fees were written clearly, and it was the kind that was casually quoted.

It seemed that these people were all respected.

He silently sized up the large group of people. However, these people were dressed in tattered clothes, so he could not see anything different.

They were also fleeing for their lives. It was obvious that they were poorer than the people of Laifu Village.

“I’m very welcome to have a large village like yours set up here. It’s just that I have something to say first. I’m the village chief of Laifu Village. I’ll be the only village chief in the future.”

“If you have any problems or difficulties, you can come to me. The east side of the village is a forbidden area. No one is allowed to approach it. You have to control the children at home. If anyone doesn’t listen and goes to that area, they will be dealt with by the village rules.”

“I’ll mark out the large open space to the south for you to settle in. As for how each family will be given, you can decide for yourselves. Remember to tell me when you’re done.”

“It’s already afternoon. You’re not in a hurry to build a house today. Building a house isn’t something that can be done in a day or two. We have a few families who moved away. You can stay over there until your house is built.”

After Yang Guang finished speaking, he returned the official letter to Ning Bai.

His arrangements were good. What they needed most now was a place to rest.

Just as Yang Guang had said, building a house was not something that could be done in a day or two. They had to find a place to stay first. Otherwise, there would be no shelter.

“Thank you,” Ning Bai said gratefully.

After so long on the road, he finally had somewhere to stay. How could he not be happy?

Yang Guang looked at this group of people and actually felt quite upset. Originally, their village had very few people and had a lot of resources. Now that a group of people had come to split the resources, and the resources each of them could obtain would decrease.
