Chapter 19: Joining Fists (4)
87_87379 "One thousand taels of silver is not enough, a hundred taels of gold for a family, a thousand silver dollars!" Big cattle and carts were delivered, and food was full!
In addition, the money accounts and grain accounts of each family were burned, and the people of Liu Laozhuang had one stone of grain for each family.
That's all I want, no two prices! Liu Yitang, you have to give an extra fifty taels of gold!
If you admit it, you will each write a document for the purpose of serving the grain and grass, and if you don't admit it, I will do business here! β
These three families are richer than Sun Shouye, and they can just scrape together enough 1,000 taels of gold, plus 3,000 silver dollars and grain, which is enough to spend on going to Cangzhou.
"Young man, don't be too presumptuous! This Qing Dynasty has an official government, you want a hundred taels of gold, a thousand silver dollars, as well as livestock, grain, the little old man has recognized it, but why should the accounts of each family be burned, do you want to pull the entire people of Liu Laozhuang into the Boxers? Is there a way for us to live? β
Liu Yitang is feminine and feminine, but the account books are the lifeblood of the three of them to control the people of Liu Laozhuang, and without those printed money accounts and grain accounts on credit, the loss can be more than 100 taels of gold and 1,000 silver dollars, and it took more than ten years or even decades to control the surrounding farmers.
Once these accounts are gone, two bumper years in a row, and in the next five or even ten years, his Liu Yicai family will lose hundreds of acres of land every year, regardless of whether he is a tenant or a yeoman farmer, one acre of land can give Liu Yitang at least one tael of income every year, ten years is a lot of money, what is the difference between this and digging ancestral graves?
And then the people of Liu Laozhuang entered the Boxer Rebellion, didn't they have to settle accounts with the three of them, and it was true that the three families were big families, but what about the people with knives? How is this account calculated?
"The Qing Dynasty? Feudal official? And how? The government has allowed the Boxer Rebellion, what can you do?
Sue sΓΉ y'oe! I asked you to burn the accounts and send food door to door, not to pull people, but for the survival of the three of you, the Boxers just started to make trouble, and when the trouble started, there were Boxers everywhere in Zhili, at that time, how would the three of you live?
While the Boxer Rebellion has not yet made trouble, the three of you have been exempted from various debts, and one family has sent a stone of grain, and the surrounding villagers, do you miss your good son? The Boxers are coming, will the villagers protect you?
The three owners know this truth better than me, if you can figure it out, do it, and don't regret it if you don't understand it!
Our Boxers are playing to rob the rich and help the poor and kill Maozi, from Shandong to Zhili, from Zhili to Tianjin Wei, can you go over without eating or drinking along the way? What do you eat and drink? It's silver! Where does the silver come from? Do the common people have money in their hands? Who are you robbing if you don't rob big families?
Even if it is robbed, we will burn the account books and divide the grain, and when the time comes, the government will come to investigate the case, and the villagers can honestly say that the Boxers did it? A shot was pointed at the parishioners, and the court did not have a way? Who would dare to take care of such a case? Didn't you just die in vain? β
Li Dacheng's words, the three people who said sat on the ground, and the cold sweat was also dripping, this senior brother said this clearly! These three big families are all well-informed people in the local area, the imperial court allowed the Boxers, and the people of the Boxers were things that could not be touched, the Boxers were robbed and killed, and some food was distributed to the people, and those mud-legged people could go to the government to report the case when they turned their heads, saying that the people robbed and killed the three of them.
What tricks can the government have when the time comes? When you see it, you can't see it, and when you hear it, you can't hear it! Dozens of people from the top and bottom of the three families died in vain.
"Senior brother, do you mean to let the three of us practice the group?"
Liu Yitang is a scholar, he is older, and he has more experience, what this senior brother means, isn't it just to let the three of them practice in a group? This thing was done by Liu Laozhuang during the Xianfeng Dynasty, but it was abolished because it cost too much to raise idlers.
"Practice? You Liu Yitang can really think! How dare you think about it! If a Boxer is deflated, there will be more and bigger Boxers coming to your Liu Laozhuang, and you will die even more miserably at that time.
You don't need to practice the group, just let the people protect you, as long as the people from ten miles and eight towns gather, which Boxer dares to come? After surviving this for a while, are you rich and powerful to make a fortune quickly? β
There are also ways and means to rob and blackmail, and if you go up and beat and rob, people are not angry, so they don't look for you to retaliate? Don't people think about you afterwards? These landlords and big households are all intersecting with the black, white and gray forces, and when they arrive in Cangzhou Mansion, he Li Dacheng's Yellow River Boxing is not the boss, at least there are still officials and soldiers there.
In another way, you robbed and slammed, you finished grabbing, you are finished, just this kind of goods, and you have to say 'thank you!' βγ
"The three of us have thanked Senior Brother for his guidance, the money and grain will be delivered tomorrow morning, the accounts, the three of us will find nearby farmers and burn them in front of us, thank you Senior Brother for saving the three of us in danger."
Li Dacheng even pointed out the way to kill people, no matter whether the three of them can see through his plan or not, this money and food must be paid, and this account book must be burned, otherwise they will be remembered by such a shrewd mud leg, and the three of them will not survive.
Liu Yitang's experience was provoked by Zhou Futing, he knows this matter best, what is the Boxer Rebellion? The bandits still talk about the rules! The Boxers were a bunch of unruly bandits.
"I've said everything I should say, what should I do for the three of you to weigh it yourself, let's go!"
After sending away Liu, Li Dacheng found Li Dahan, and the two ate some mutton in a cold nest, and Li Dacheng began to arrange for people to block Liu Laozhuang.
"You bring a few reliable people tonight, guard the three big households of Liu Laozhuang, and put the night patrol people outside the Zhuangzi, and they are not allowed to enter or leave, and let the refugees outside the Zhuangzi patrol today.
When Cheng You comes back, you ask him to send those useless clothes down door to door and buy some donkeys, mules and carriages, remember, we don't accept Liu Laozhuang's people, and those who come to defect will give some food back. β
"Senior brother, let those refugees keep vigil, what should they do if they run away?"
"Run, run! They were so honest that they ran just right! β
"Done! I know what to do! β
"Hmmm! Remember, if the brothers make mistakes again, it is still ours to beat and break them. β
"Hmmm! I'm just angry that they don't listen to you! β
"Some things take their time, it's not good to be in a hurry, they hate you when they're in a hurry, it's not good, go ahead!
Remember, don't kill the people in the Zhuangzi, just arrest them! β
Li Dacheng's cautious arrangement basically had no effect, and the three big households in Liu Laozhuang were brightly lit that night, and the whole Liu Laozhuang was jumping with chickens and dogs, and the cheers and thanks of the villagers were endless.
Liu Laozhuang's three major households, did not forget to make Li Dacheng famous, in the second half of the night, groups of villagers came to the land temple to thank him, after being driven away a few times, they also knew the rules, with a family at the door of the land temple, kowtow a few heads to repay the favor.
"Brother Dacheng, how did you come up with this idea?"
The matter of the three major households, Li Dacheng went back and told the Sun family and the grandfather, Sun Shouye even gave a thumbs up, praising the benevolence and righteousness of this matter, with a stone of grain for a family of three to eat thin, can make do with the moon, at this time can have a stone of grain, this kindness is too great, but Li Dacheng didn't think so, just handy, he was not a good person after doing this.
There were many people who came to thank Xie En at night, and the noise was so noisy that people couldn't sleep, and the girl of the Sun family had to pull Li Dacheng to watch the play, but he had no choice but to get a ladder, and the two climbed to the roof of the Land Temple.
Looking at the villagers who kowtowed to thank her, the girl of the Sun family was no longer disgusting, and she didn't call herself a bad seed, she opened her mouth to be Brother Dacheng, this girl has fallen.
"Xiang one, I'll sue you!"
"Speak quickly!"
If you can let it go, you can let go of everything, the girl of the Sun family paid the fee quickly, and waited to listen to the play with her ears pricked up!
"Speaking of this, that is, the child has no mother to talk about a long story, seeing that you girl can't eat, I thought, this girl is good! If you don't eat, won't you be hungry? I simply made a play for her to see, and when I was in a good mood, I could eat, so I came up with this method. β
"You're teasing me again, but I love to hear it!"
"That's it! Just take a look, there is still some mutton in the pot over there, go down and eat some, cool at night, wear more, cover more, don't get sick, it's hard to cure if you're sick! β
The next day, Liu Laozhuang's three major families obediently sent Li Dacheng what he wanted, the Zhou family had a great harvest here, the Zhou family did grain trading, the family had 20 big mules, five horses, and sent 20 carts of grain, with these grains, Li Dacheng was more confident in his heart.
The green-robed monster ran five last night, and Li Dacheng didn't feel sorry for this, running away may be a way to live, but following him may not be a way to live!
Sent away more than 20 old, weak, sick and disabled, and sent five silver dollars to the upper and lower people of the Yellow River Boxing, and the newcomers were issued with three yuan, which doubled the Yellow River Boxing, and continued to run to the Cangzhou Mansion with a majestic spirit and high spirits.
"Dacheng, further forward is Gaozhai, we can't get over one day, let's divide it into two days!"
Sun Shouye didn't sleep very well last night, and he woke up when he was old, and he squinted in the carriage for half a morning today, and after a few Zhuangzi, he caught up from behind.
"Uncle Sun, is there anything different about Gaozhai?"
Hearing that Sun Shouye had the meaning of questioning, Li Dacheng asked rhetorically.
"What do you think?"
"It's either that the terrain is high or there is a wall, and Zhili is still a peaceful place, so I think it should be higher.
If the terrain is high, it is not easy to fight, if it is a town, with the help of houses, it is even more difficult to fight if there are fewer people!
Uncle Sun, don't worry, I won't attack the town stupidly, there's no need for that. β
"I know you can't fight, there are pawnshops and blacksmith shops in Gaozhai, and there are swords in pawnshops and blacksmith shops, don't be in Gaozhai for those jewelry necklaces, you have to go to Cangzhou Mansion, where the territory is big!"
"Uncle Sun, there are Boxers in Gaozhai, right?"
"It's an ancient town, what do you say?"
"I know, it's not the Boxers in Shandong, I don't want to fight them, but there is one thing they don't mess with."
The gossip of the two was still said by Li Dacheng, and less than half of the two-day journey was completed, and Li Dacheng's Yellow River Boxing met a local regiment in Cangzhou.
"You are the senior brother of the Yellow River Boxing who killed Zhao Tongjin in Liu Laozhuang?"
Half of the dozen or so people on the opposite side were riding horses, Zhao Tongjin should be a green-robed monster, and more than a dozen people should not have made Li Dacheng jealous, but Li Dacheng was very jealous of them now, because these people carried three guns.
"Not bad! It was Lao Tzu who did it, the Boxer Rebellion Zhao Tong violated the two major precepts of greed for money and lust, shouldn't he be killed? β
The people on the opposite side deliberately distanced themselves, making it a little difficult for Li Dacheng to start, their horses were fast, and they hid on a dirt slope before rushing out, and they were very abrupt when they appeared in front of them, and they didn't arrange time for Li Dacheng to defend at all.
"The boxers in the world are one family, even if they break the precepts, they shouldn't say kill them! The elder brother at the mouth of the altar will naturally be punished. β
The person on the opposite side should be carrying ** behind him, wearing a red scarf with a knife in his waist and a white dress, this should be a serious Boxer with an altar.
"I am the senior brother of the altar, I followed the red light in Shandong, and I worked with the officials and soldiers in the Senluo Palace, Lao Tzu has the qualifications to open the altar, right?
Are you the same as that altar? When I saw the elder brother of Tankou Zhangquan, is it such a virtue? Tell me about the name and surname of your senior brother at Tankou, I will meet him and teach him what the rules are! β
How could the Boxers have a serious organization? Everywhere is doing its own thing, starting a turtle king eight can open the altar, the key is that there are not many people, more people are naturally bigger, look at the opposite posture, it is obviously the kind of people who have a lot of people.
is at a disadvantage in numbers, but Li Dacheng has an advantage in terms of qualifications, Zhu Honglan is recognized as a senior brother, with the name of Zhu Honglan, no matter where he is in the Boxers, he can not bird them, Zhu Honglan is dead, and he can be regarded as a grandfather in terms of seniority
