Chapter 347: Let's get down to business

And the old man urged impatiently at this time, "What are you still doing standing here?

Qin Wei unhurriedly took out a piece of meat wrapped with hemp rope and leaves from his bag, threw it directly into the old man's arms, and then continued to look at each other with a smile.

The old man was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Qin Wei to have the foresight to prepare in advance, he smacked his lips and muttered, "You kid is quite smart", and then he stopped talking, nor did he make any more requests, and ate and drank on the ground.

Qin Wei just leaned against the wall and watched without saying a word, and Martha also quietly accompanied him, until the old man started to wipe his mouth after eating, he didn't speak, "You also ate the meat, and you also drank the wine, it's time to get down to business, right?"

Hehe, the old man made a smirk-like voice, but his eyes when he looked at Qin Wei and Martha were no longer so frivolous, "This gentleman is kind-hearted and smart, there is actually a reason why I did that, please come to the house with me, and let me repay the kindness of the two of you for this meal!"

His unsightly, sloppy old man was actually the chief hunter of Pasbay, but his emaciated and rickety image was not at all as bright and majestic as old William, and Martha did not have a good impression of him at all, even if he had explained it.

"I just want you to get out of Pasbay, don't meddle in this!"

That's what the old man said, he had done this kind of "unkind" behavior many times before, bluffing away many "ignorant" young hunters from other places, and even the villagers' lies were all due to their collusion.

But why did you do this? Who is the wild boar pretending to be? And the target is likely to be just going for the village chief, so what is wrong with that village chief?" Qin Wei asked with such doubts.

"That land isn't his!"

The old man told the truth, and the village chief of Pasbai drove out the tenant farmers of the original land by "legal" means, taking advantage of the weakness of the other party's illiteracy, and even tricked and coaxed the tenant farmers to sign cheap deeds of sale and take the land for themselves.

By the time the tenant farmer reacted, it was too late, he was already homeless, and had to run to the woods to fend for himself, but when did that hard life come to an end?

And the truth is far more serious than he imagined, his wife was directly mismarried because of malnutrition, living conditions are too bad, and her body has been getting thinner and thinner since then, and she did not survive the second winter, and only one sharecropper was left in the supposed family of three.

But the village chief's approach was legal, and the title deed and his handprints on it were proof, and even the king could not deny it, so he could only retaliate in private, and since I could not own my farmland, then you should not want to plant anything on this land.

The tenant farmers wreak havoc on the freshly sown land at night with their pointed sticks, and deliberately imitate the shape of the boar's hooves to leave their mark, as if the boar were really ploughing back and forth with its fangs.

But after coming and going, the village chief naturally knew who did it, he hired thugs to ambush in the field to prepare to catch a pawn, and then use this excuse to execute the tenant farmer, which was a hundred, but he didn't expect that the other villagers were sympathetic to the tenant farmer, because the village chief offended the villagers on weekdays, and bullying men and women happened from time to time, so the villagers discussed giving the tenant farmers a message to let the thugs repeatedly pounce on the air.

This gave the village chief a headache, and the people in the village all had opinions about his actions, although he dared to be angry and didn't dare to say what he could do, but it was still okay to engage in these small actions in private, so he couldn't openly say what the villagers were like, and he could only threaten a few words verbally.

After that, he had to ask people to search the forest, but the tenant farmer had been in the forest for a long time, and he was very familiar with the forest, and the thugs couldn't find where he was hiding, and they were crippled by the traps made by the other party.

Therefore, the village chief put his hope on "foreign aid", he looked around for unsuspecting hunters from other places to help him track down the "wild boar", no need for hunters to kill him, just find where "it" is hiding, and his thugs will naturally do the rest of the work.

But the villagers also have their countermeasures, they squeezed out all the outsiders hired by the village chief by not cooperating and providing false information, and used this negative attitude to fight him silently, but Qin Wei and Martha just happened to be involved in this confrontation.

"So, you better continue to travel, you should not get involved in the affairs of Pasbai, I think you are all like good people to tell you the truth, and I don't have such a good face for others!"

"Don't worry, the village chief doesn't care about you, we will keep spending time with him, and we won't let him be so arrogant in Pasbai, otherwise maybe one day other people's land will be deceived by him!

Originally, Qin Wei, who heard about this accident, still felt that the atmosphere near the royal capital was just like this, but when he heard the old man's last words, he realized that the self-protection consciousness of the people here was still quite high, and there was still a rescue.

"Shall I help you?"

"Ah!?" The old man was very surprised by Qin Lao's words, and even the wine glass in his hand almost fell to the ground, which outsider didn't have anything to do with himself and ran away quickly, for fear of offending the village chief and being retaliated, how could he help the villagers in turn like Qin Lao? But the young man in front of him revealed an extraordinary aura everywhere, maybe he could really help the villagers to bring down the village chief.

"Then~ how can you help?"

"Hehe~ Didn't they say that there are wild boars in the forest, then let them see how powerful the wild boars are!" Qin Wei laughed gloomily, making both Martha and the old man feel a bad premonition.

"How does Mr. Qin know that this old guy wasn't playing tricks on us in the first place?

Martha was amazed at Qin Rank's foresight, but she waited until she had left the old man's room before asking Qin Rank.

"I just remembered a story about a boy named Zhang Liang who was teased several times by an old man, but in the end the old man gave him an amazing book, and he became an amazing character later. ”

"But that old man didn't give us any books, did he?"

"Uh~ It's just a description, he can say so much to us is beyond my expectations!"

Qin Wei only remembered the allusion in a flash of inspiration at that time, and then bought a piece of meat when he bought wine in the tavern, if the old man didn't want it, he planned to share it with Martha himself.

And if the old man still refuses to express his intention after asking for it, then he is still thinking about whether to salute first and then soldier.

"Then let's go around the place the old man said, and then go to the village chief. ”
