Chapter 262: 264 You're Short On Numbers

264 You’re Short On Numbers

Two big and one small bags of grain were placed on the scale, and the weight was 1.7 stone.

“This can’t be right. If it’s calculated by half, it should be 1.9 stone. Why is it 1.7 stone? Third Uncle, the amount you have isn’t enough.”

Da Bao carefully checked the numbers again and turned to look at third uncle Qin.

“How is that possible? I weighed it properly at home before bringing it over. Why is it not enough for you? Da Bao, you can’t do this!”

Third uncle Qin originally thought that the Qin family’s eldest branch must be the same as the Qin family, that the scale had been modified. If the scale was not enough and the difference was too big, he could also make an issue out of it. In the end, he didn’t expect the scale of the Qin family’s eldest branch to be an accurate scale.

This time, he had already hidden a portion of the food and was acting unreasonably. Now, he didn’t even have the opportunity to find more food for himself.

“Third uncle, the scale in my house is accurate. it’s your scale that’s lacking in quantity. How can you say that it’s my scale’s problem? Don’t tell me that you’ve been bullying me since I am young and don’t understand these things?”

At this moment, the smile on Da Bao’s face gradually disappeared. His small face became serious, and he looked a little imposing.

“Da Bao, you’re considered my master now. How would I dare to deceive you with an insufficient amount of rent? But you can’t just say that I reduced the amount, right? If I dare to do that, if you don’t give me the land in the future, who am I going to reason with?”

Third uncle Qin also went all out. Anyway, Mo Ruyue was not at home now. As an adult, how could he not play with a few dolls? Let’s make things real first, then think of other ways later, who cares if it’s a cry, a tantrum, or a suicide?

In short, he wanted the grain, and he wanted to continue growing the land.

The four babies in the house had all seen what was happening in the courtyard outside.

San Bao was a little worried as he said to Er Bao, “Second Brother, are we just going to watch and not care about Eldest Brother?”

“Have you forgotten what Mother said before she left?” Collecting rent was a form of training for Da Bao. What his mother cared about was not the food, but whether Da Bao could hold up. He’s going to be a big businessman in the future. If he can’t even handle such a small matter, how is he going to do business in the future?

Although Er Bao said this, he had already clenched his fists tightly.

Da Bao was being questioned so aggressively, but the smile on his face was still there. However, the smile had obviously faded a lot.

“Third Uncle, you’re getting old, why is your temperament also rising? My mother said that being angry is harmful to the body. If you get angry, you won’t be able to eat the food that has been left behind.”

Da Bao’s words made it impossible for anyone to pick out any logic from them. They were clearly all good words, but they could still make people so angry that they vomited blood.

When third uncle Qin heard this, he was seething with anger. This little brat actually told him to be careful of being angered to death?

Even though he was the child of the main family, in terms of seniority, he had to be called third uncle! How could he be so disrespectful to his elders? He was simply rebelling!

“You, how can you say that? I’m your third uncle!”

He pointed his finger at Da Bao and was so angry that he could not even speak properly.

“You’re the third whatever, we have to be reasonable.”

Da Bao appeared to be more at ease. He continued to say with a smile, “If you think there’s something wrong with our scale, there’s an uncle blacksmith in the village. We can let him see if the scale has been tampered with.”

“Moreover, the amount of rent each person has to pay is clearly stated in the contract. Even if you want us to give you half, there has to be a discussion process, not just a one-sided agreement.”

“Finally, you said that the three acres of land only had six piculs of corn. Then I really should go and see what’s wrong with that land. Why is it that other families only have nine piculs of corn, and there’s such a big difference between yours and theirs?”

When he said this, he paused slightly and stared into third uncle Qin’s eyes, but he did not say anything.

Third uncle qin was no longer as calm as he was before. His eyes were wandering, and his hands were covered in cold sweat.

At first, he thought that since Da Bao was in charge of collecting rent, the young man would be fooled by him. But after some confrontation, he found that the young man was so difficult to deal with.

“Da Bao, look at what you’re doing. Isn’t it a good thing that your third uncle is here to deliver the rent to you? Why are we quarreling? ”

Third uncle Qin forced a smile and tried to play the family card. However, before he could say what he wanted to say, he was interrupted by Da Bao.

“Third Uncle, it’s a good thing that you’re here to pay the rent. We know that your family’s life isn’t easy. In order to not let us take advantage of your family, we should be even more calculative, right?”

“So, I think we should do it this way. Let my brother ask uncle village chief to come and take a look. His family’s land is growing very well, but our family’s land is just a road away. Why is the harvest so bad? Third Uncle, your income has also decreased. Won’t this year’s hard work be in vain?”

“Let’s find the problem and avoid it next year. We’ll strive to get 90 piculs of grain, then you’ll have more grain left right?”

“Ask San Bao to invite the blacksmith uncle over to see if our scale is accurate. If it’s not, then adjust it quickly.. What do you think?”

Third uncle Qin was already confused and disoriented by these words. How could he dare to agree to follow Da Bao’s plan? If he really did so, he would be greatly embarrassed!

“Da Bao, don’t, don’t, don’t be like this. Listen to Third Uncle. We can discuss this matter, right?”

Third uncle Qin racked his brain to think of a way to resolve the situation.

“Fine, just pretend that I didn’t say anything just now. There’s no rush to pay the rent today, right? If Third Uncle’s eyes are playing tricks on him, he won’t have the face to see you.”

He was quick-witted and thought of a solution in a few sentences.

“Since that’s the case, then Third Uncle can take the grain back and weigh it again. However, I hope you won’t make a mistake the next time you come.”

Da Bao had no intention of making things difficult for third uncle Qin. On the contrary, he agreed to his request very generously.

“Alright, alright, I definitely won’t.”

Third uncle Qin agreed repeatedly and reached out to take the food bag. At the same time, he turned his head to look for Old Li. however, Old Li had already left in half a day’s time, and his shadow was nowhere to be seen in the courtyard.

“Third Uncle, do you want Da Bao’s help? But I still have to continue collecting rent, what should I do?”

Qin Qingduo tilted his head and cut off third uncle Qin’s words before he could speak.

“Ah, no, no. The grain is so heavy. Why would third uncle ask Da Bao to carry it? You can’t carry it with your small body.”

Third uncle Qin smiled awkwardly. He did have this idea just now, but he didn’t expect that Da Bao would see through it and put it out before he could say it.

Helplessly, he could only make two trips back and forth and move the grain away.
