Chapter 295: Mayor Request

The ronin's business is over.

I think that after being scared away by the ghost this time, I shouldn't come to trouble them again in the future.

However, by surprise, I still got a staff of nine chrysanthemums.

But this thing, Nanchen and the others have not fully grasped its effect.

Now it is used by Wen Cai as a dog beating stick.

It was getting late at this time, and the three of them chatted in the courtyard for a while.

They went back to their rooms and fell asleep.

As for the ronins, the three of them ignored them completely.

And those ronins are experiencing the most terrifying night of their lives at this time.

Those wandering ghosts, after receiving the paper money, kept scaring these ronins.

Basically don't give them a respite.

Let their spirits have been in the most fearful stage.

Looking back, there were ghosts in white.

The ronin's frightened screams and wails continued to sound one after another.

They ran away desperately, wishing they had four legs.

Several of them are ronin, and they came to Renjia Town.

I regretted making trouble with Nanchen and the others......

This night, Nanchen slept more sweetly.

When I woke up, it was already early the next morning.

In Renjia Town, rumors are rife.

Especially for residents who live in the southern suburbs, not far from Yizhuang.

Early in the morning, I started talking about last night's events.

What do you say last night, the door of the ghost was wide open, and the evil ghost appeared.

It is even said that the Yin soldiers cross the border, and the hundred ghosts travel at night.

Others said that it was Yizhuang's ninth uncle and three apprentices, and Nanchen Qiusheng Wencai was summoning spirits.

Anyway, there are all kinds of people who say all kinds of things.

However, some of the squires, including Mayor Ah Wei and others, understood what had happened last night.

After getting up, Nanchen didn't think about last night's ronin.

It is time to cultivate, how to cultivate.

After Wen Cai had a chrysanthemum stick, he deliberately went to Uncle Jiu's study.

I rummaged through a book of secret records dedicated to practicing stick practice.

In the middle of the morning, Ren Long of the town took Ah Wei to Yizhuang.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw the mayor waving his hand at Nanchen and the others:

"The three virtuous nephews suddenly came to the door and disturbed a lot. ”

When Nanchen and the others saw the mayor, they had already guessed in their hearts what the other party was doing.

Nine times out of ten, I asked if I killed anyone or anything about the situation last night.

Nanchen and the others also waved their hands.

Then I listened to Nanchen's symbolic opening:

"The mayor of the town is far away, so sit inside. ”

The mayor smiled, and with Ah Wei and a few security guards, he went directly into Yizhuang.

Wencai also knew each other and went to make a few bowls of tea.

Qiusheng even asked Ah Wei in a whisper, why the mayor suddenly visited the office.

Ah Wei muttered in a low voice:

"It's not a matter of the ronin, and then I want to ask you to do some kind of ritual to worship the sky, saying that it is to ask for rain.

Now the villagers are making a lot of trouble, and there may be a civil uprising at any time. ”

As soon as Ah Wei's words fell, Nanchen said to the mayor:

"Mayor Town, I don't know what happened to Yizhuang?"

The mayor took a sip of tea:

"Oh! yes, I wanted to ask.

The ronin came over last night, nothing big happened, right?

Some residents in the southern suburbs saw a group of ghosts and said that they came from Yizhuang.

W- This is what you put out?"

Without waiting for Nanchen to speak, Wen Cai had already shouted:

"Don't worry, Mayor Mayor, we put the ghosts.

But they are all wandering ghosts, and there is no harm.

We scared them and didn't kill them.

I think those ronins have already left town, right?"

Mayor Mare nodded:

"That's good, that's good!"

Then, the mayor changed his words and spoke again:

"Nanchen, Qiusheng Wencai.

I'm here today, and there's one more thing. ”

"Mayor Mare, but it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

Nanchen spoke calmly.

Mayor Mare nodded:

"Well, it's been a long time since we've had rain here.

Many fields are already dry.

Now Uncle Nine is not here.

So I want the three of you to beg for a rain in town. ”

When Nanchen heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Rain?

What are you kidding, they're going to beg for rain.

Not only Nanchen was embarrassed, but Qiusheng Wencai was also embarrassed.

"That mayor, begging for rain is such a thing.

I'm afraid we don't have enough Dao Fa to do it!"

Nanchen told the truth.

But the mayor waved his hand and smiled lightly:

"It doesn't matter if you succeed or not, as long as you do it.

After all, it's all sincerity.

As for whether the dragon king is willing to use clouds and rain, it still depends on the sky, right?

As long as the three of them are willing to set up an altar and go through the motions.

I'm willing to pay a hundred oceans, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Nanchen was a little confused.

What does this mayor mean?

knew that Nanchen and the others couldn't ask for rain.

But as the saying goes, if you go through the motions, you will give a hundred oceans?

What is this mayor's plan? Too much money and no land?

Nanchen showed a hint of suspicion.

Qiu Shengwen listened to it, but his eyes lit up.

Wen Cai was even more excited:

"Really, set up an altar and give a hundred oceans?"

"Mayor Mare, don't lie to us?"

The mayor touched his mustache:

"I, Ren Long, as the mayor of a town, naturally counts when I speak.

As long as you set up the altar, you will sit in a decent manner.

After that, I went out a hundred oceans. ”

Nanchen looked at the mayor's evil smile, and instantly understood something in his heart.

I'm afraid the mayor of this town is continuing to ask for rain to collect money.

Nanchen raised his eyebrows and directly pointed:

"Mayor Town, you asked us to ask for rain to make money, right?"

The mayor of the town smiled "hehe", he had this calculation in his heart.

Recently, there has been a severe drought near Renjia Town, and the crops are drying up and dying.

If it doesn't rain, there will be no harvest this year.

The grievances of the villagers are naturally very heavy, and the people may revolt at any time.

As the mayor of the town, he wants to appease his grievances, maintain stability in the town, and continue his rule.

After all, in this era, as the mayor of the town, he is the emperor of the soil here.

So I came up with the trick of praying for rain.

Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, first stabilize the mood of the villagers and stabilize their rule.

As a result, you can also get some oil and water from the pockets of the villagers.

Using praying for rain as an excuse, let each villager give a little, just a few copper plates, saying that it was to pay tribute to the dragon king.

It doesn't hurt or itch, but it adds up.

Cumulatively, there are as many as 500 oceans.

When the time comes, give 100 to Nanchen and them, put aside the rest of the miscellaneous uses, and take care of the upper and lower hands.

If it falls into his own hands, there must be two hundred oceans, to say the least.

This idea is not high, and it can strengthen the rule, enhance his prestige in Renjia Town, and make money.

Killing two birds with one stone, it's exciting to think about.

So, the mayor smiled and said:

"One person has one or two copper plates, and the merchant is the big one.

Let's get some money from the middle, that makes sense, right?

Moreover, you have a hundred oceans, which is already quite a few. ”

The mayor of the town thought that Nanchen thought that a hundred oceans was too little, and this was to increase the price.

But Nanchen wanted to refuse.

First of all, he doesn't pray for rain.

Also, he doesn't really want to make this kind of money that damages yin morality.

If you have a cause and effect on your back, you don't know how you died.

Therefore, Nanchen has to refuse.

But Qiusheng Wencai grinned:

"Not a lot, not a lot, a hundred oceans is a lot.

That's it.

Let's go pray for rain......"
