Chapter 161: Lose
Zhang Viper struggled to stand up, and shouted to the surrounding villagers with a little weakness: "Fellow villagers, what the adult said just now is right, good and evil will be rewarded in the end." Not only I, Zhang Viper, but also many of the children of the villagers in the village died when we did evil, maybe this is God's punishment for us. ”
Zhang Viper was beaten by a dog and a yellow squirrel just now, and now he speaks intermittently, but he still endures the pain on his body and continues to speak: "Since our ancestors, we have been living by doing evil, so that our descendants can live a chic life, and we have continued the tradition of our ancestors and have been doing evil. However, the money we use is not clean, we are not afraid of everyone's jokes, and sometimes we will wake up in the middle of the night with nightmares. The blood on our hands is something we can't pay off in our lifetime. Now that the county magistrate is willing to give us a chance, I Zhang Viper is the first to sign up. After that, I will hand over all the looted property of my ancestors to the county government and tell me all my crimes. I will not live in the dark in the future, and I will also be an upright person. ”
"Fart!"
The dog rushed out and scolded Zhang Viper loudly, just now he hid aside, so he escaped the killing of Dian Wei, and said sharply: "Our wicked village has always made a living by doing evil, other villages can also grow grain, what can our wicked village do? Zhang Viper, don't think that if you say a few words, you will treat yourself as a good person. Do you also believe in the words of the government, have you forgotten what happened? Although Brother Han Dahu is dead, our wicked village has been led by evil since ancient times, and from now on, my dog and weasel are your bosses. ”
"Ahem!"
Zhang Poisonous Snake coughed and mocked: "I, Zhang Poisonous Snake, am a big man, with hands and feet, and I am afraid that I will not be able to live." Anyway, I'm not going to do any more evil, I'm going to keep my chest up and live. ”
The dog's eyes flashed with cruelty, and he smiled cruelly: "Since you want to die, Lao Tzu will fulfill you." Everyone shot and killed this traitor together, and then our brothers killed his daughter-in-law together, and everyone can enjoy all the glory and wealth in the future. ”
The surrounding villagers struggled with their eyes, as if they were thinking, and finally everyone exhaled, as if they had made a decision, and slowly surrounded them.
Zhang Viper closed his eyes, although he was about to die, he did not have the slightest fear. Because, he felt that his heart had been sublimated, and he could die without regrets.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing, hit the wrong person!"
Zhang Viper's ears suddenly heard a scream, opened his eyes, and was stunned to find that the dog and the yellow squirrel had been beaten to the ground by everyone, and wanted to reach out to stop it. However, with so many people using their hands and feet, the two of them can't stop it.
"Brother Viper is right, we have to be human again!"
"Yes, we can't let our children and grandchildren suffer with us!"
"Kill these two unrepentant things, and then we will go together to confess our sins to the adults. ”
Zhang Poisonous Snake's eyes were wet, the villagers finally realized their mistakes, and now it is still too late to repent, and the village of the wicked will definitely become better in the future.
Wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Zhang Viper looked at his daughter-in-law on the side, and said softly: "Xi'er, this time I went to the county office, maybe I won't be able to come out in the future." Don't stay in the village of the wicked in the future, get out of here and find a good family to marry. You are a good girl, not afraid that there is no way out. ”
Xi'er shook her head and said quietly: "My family is dead, and I don't know where to go." After spending so much time in the Village of the Wicked, I think it's actually quite good here. Everyone is also very kind in their hearts, and now they finally understand that there is nothing wrong with staying here. If you are willing, Xi'er is willing to serve you for the rest of your life. ”
Xi'er lowered her head slightly shyly, and Zhang Viper was stunned. He had already heard what Xi'er meant, and this service was different from the one who treated him as his father-in-law before.
"But, you're my daughter-in-law..."
Xi'er smiled and asked, "Master, do you know why I have been with Brother Yuzi for many years and have no children?"
The leftover son is naturally Zhang Gouyu, the son of Zhang Viper, listening to Xi'er's tone, it seems that the relationship between the two is quite good.
Zhang Viper was stunned and asked puzzledly, "Why is this?"
Xi'er's face was moved, her eyes were already moist, and she choked up: "Actually, Brother Yuzi has long known that he has a disease. The reason why he begged Han Dahu for me was because he took pity on me and didn't want me to fall into their hands and be humiliated by them. Brother Leftover also knew that the Wicked Village would perish sooner or later if it continued like this, and he also wanted to change the situation in the Wicked Village, but Brother Leftover's ideals had not yet been realized, and he had unfortunately died. Brother Yuzi said that the old man and the people in the village are actually kind, and sooner or later they will repent. If Xi'er is willing, let me serve the master in the future. Until the moment when the master stepped forward just now, Xi'er until the master was just as Brother Yuzi said, so Xi'er was willing to take care of the master for the rest of his life. ”
"Woo, my poor son, why didn't Dad wake up earlier, otherwise you wouldn't have left Dad so early..."
After hearing this, Zhang Viper immediately cried. After crying, Zhang Viper glanced at Xi'er hesitantly and said, "Xi'er, if you say that, we don't have the name of Weng Daughter-in-law, and I'm also happy." It's just that this time I went to the county government to surrender, I don't know how long it will take to come out, maybe I won't be able to get out for the rest of my life, I don't want to delay you, so..."
Xi'er stretched out her hand to cover the mouth of the poisonous snake, and said softly: "Master, it doesn't matter, Xi'er will always wait for you, whether it is ten years, twenty years, or a lifetime." ”
Zhang Viper was still a little hesitant, after all, if he agreed, it would hurt Xi'er for the rest of his life.
"Hey, viper, everyone is willing, you still hesitate. ”
"That's it, everyone has the courage to say such a thing, and you are still cowering as a big man. ”
"Viper, promise someone!"
After cleaning up the dogs and yellow rats, the villagers all stood aside to listen to Xi'er's words, and were very grateful for the hard work of Zhang Viper's son. At the same time, I also admire Xi'er very much.
Zhang Viper was so stimulated by the villagers, and immediately said arrogantly: "Okay, since the big guys have said so, then I'm not hypocritical." When I get out of prison, I'll give you a beautiful wedding. Since our wicked village has decided to change its ways, I will not be called Zhang Viper in the future, and the name will also permeate people, from today on, everyone will call me Zhang Laogen. ”
"Haha, poison... What Lao Gen said is reasonable, and we have all changed our names. I don't call me a scorpion anymore, the big guy calls me Mogen. ”
"I'll change it too, I'll call it Sangen, everyone follows the old root, haha..."
After hundreds of years in the village of the wicked, there was finally laughter and laughter again, and the gloom that pressed on the heads of the villagers seemed to have dissipated. The sun shone on everyone's happy faces, as if it was heralding a different future for the village of the wicked.
……
Towards the evening, Han Sui and Dian Wei finally solved the troubles of the villages under the jurisdiction of Dongping County. Those whose behavior is not very bad will be caught and taken to the county government to wait for disposal, and those who behave badly will be directly killed on the spot. Dian Wei's eyes were shining brightly, and the halberds were dyed a layer of blood red.
"Lord, my subordinates have fulfilled their mission and completed the task of the main bus generation. ”
Dian Wei and Han Sui came to Yuan Chang to resume their lives.
"Hehe, Zilong, I'm having a good time today. In particular, there is a village called the village of the wicked, where the guys are very fat, and they even want to attack and kill me, and as a result, hehehe..."
Looking at Dian Wei's excited face, Zhao Yun was a little depressed.
"Zilong, the lord didn't let you make a move, are you unhappy, it doesn't matter, next time I won't fight with you, let you go." ”
Dian Wei looked at Zhao Yun's face, and thought that Zhao Yun was unhappy because he didn't have a chance to make a move.
"Hong Fei, did you kill those villagers?"
Yuan Chang glanced at Dian Wei and asked. Dian Wei's heart tightened, and he said everything happily, I don't know if he will be scolded by Yuan Chang. Although Han Sui also killed the bully, the other party resisted very fiercely and wanted to kill Han Sui, so Han Sui had no choice but to kill him. The others, at most, were arrested or seriously injured.
"Haha, Hong Fei, you did a good job, those guys have no humanity, kill them. ”
However, to Dian Wei's surprise, Yuan Chang did not scold him, but praised him lavishly. This made Dian Wei extremely puzzled, according to Yuan Chang's character, it shouldn't be like this, could it be that the lord has a more inhumane way to torture himself. Thinking of this, Dian Wei suddenly cried with a sad face.
"My lord, if I do something wrong, you say, don't torture me. ”
When Yuan Chang heard this, he was immediately dissatisfied, and scolded with a smile: "Hong Fei, if you haven't been scolded, your skin is itchy." In that case, squat in the corner for me. ”
Dian Wei breathed a sigh of relief, this is like Yuan Chang!
However, Han Sui found that not only Zhao Yun, but even Guo Jia also had a depressed face. What happened to Zhao Yun and Guo Jia, how could they have such expressions?
The matter can be traced back to after Dian Wei and Han Sui left.
"Airplane, Junko, haha, neither of you played your cards, double in the spring!"
"Big second fried, king fried, haha, quadruple!"
"Shunzi, then Shunzi, the second big fried, the king fried, wahaha, two fried, spring, eightfold..."
In this way, after a whole day, Guo Jia and Zhao Yun were bombarded by Yuan Chang, and they lost all the beef cattle. Except for one or two rounds of good luck to win a little, at the end of the day, the two of them lost all the money for the next half a year.
Zhao Yun and Han Sui were the guards given to Yuan Chang by Yuan Shao, and the two of them were given a hundred stones. Fifty stone rice, and the other fifty stone is converted into money, which is about 10,000 yuan. Taking one stone as sixty catties now, that is to say, one catty of rice costs a little more than three yuan. According to the research of the brick family and the beasts, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a coin was about 3 yuan, that is, a catty of rice today is nearly 10 yuan. Compared with before Yuan Chang's crossing, it is simply a world of difference, and it is no wonder that many grain merchants stockpiled grain and raised prices during the famine.
However, because of the war, food prices have increased today. During the reign of Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty, the lowest price of grain was only 30 yuan per stone, that is, only one penny for two catties of rice, which was about the same as the price before Yuan Chang's crossing.
Guo Jia and Zhao Yun lost half a year's Yulu, that is, 60,000 yuan, which is equivalent to nearly 200,000 yuan, which is simply a big gamble!
Guo Jia and Dian Wei were received by Yuan Chang himself, and Yu Lu was paid by Yuan Chang.
Dongping County, managed by Yuan Chang, is a medium-sized county, with 400 stone of Yulu every year, 100 stone each of Guo Jia and Dian Wei, and 200 stone of Yuan Chang, which is enough to spend. In ancient times, when you were an official, money was enough to spend. If you want to delicate the mountains and seas every day and wrap n milk, then it's a different matter. Therefore, in ancient times, officials did not have to worry about money at all. Sometimes if you do a good job, your superiors will reward you.
Yuan Chang shook the IOU in his hand, and said with a thief smile: "Fengxiao, Zilong, it is natural to repay debts, don't think that we have a good relationship, just want to repay the debt, hehehe..."
After speaking, Yuan Chang swaggered away, leaving Zhao Yun and Guo Jia alone to cry without tears.
