Chapter 230: Chapter 232 Buying a Homestead_1

The next day was set for purchasing the homestead and writing the contract. After breakfast, the pair split up to take care of preparations, with Tan Zhenghong responsible for inviting guests, arranging wine, and other miscellaneous tasks, while Qiao Duo'er handled setting up a table with wine and food.

By around ten o'clock, the guests began to arrive one after another.

In rural communities, the purchase of land was given utmost importance, for causing delay to the host's affairs could lead to a tarnished reputation.

Among those who came were Tie Niu, Scholar Zhou, Wu Youcai, and Uncle Huang, as well as Dàlín and Iron Bolt.

Tie Niu represented the government office, and it was Elder Mr. Zhou, the Academician, who wrote the contract. Earlier, he had been the one to draft the Relationship Termination Letter. Wu Youcai and Uncle Huang were the witnesses.
