Chapter 509: A Magical Counterattack
Mo Yun was taken aback, he didn't know why his eldest young master was so excited when he heard that he was spending money to hire someone to pick fish bones, and he was afraid that he had done something wrong, so he stammered and explained, "This money ...... It's not expensive, one or two pennies, and those aunts still think that there are few fish......"
Who told you this! Ouyang Kang said, "I'll reward you with twenty taels when I turn around!" If you want gold, go outside and keep it. Dad, I have an idea, please listen to it......"

In an inconspicuous low-rise house on the side of the road, someone pushed the door in, and a gray-haired old lady in the house piled up wrinkles on her face, sighed, and said, "What are you doing here?" What are you doing tying up an old woman who is about to go to the ground? I said, young man, you are all right, let me go. My wife can't stand your toss, so why bother to take my life? ”
The old lady's hands were tied behind her back, and her eyes were blindfolded, but she was placed on a kang, and looking at the description, she didn't suffer much except for fright.
She couldn't see, she could only hear a low, honest middle-aged man say, "Don't be afraid, old man, we won't harm you, but ask you something, and I'll send you back after asking." Well, this is ten taels of silver, and it is for you to be shocked. ”
The old lady heard this voice unfamiliar, not like the young man who had tied herself, and said, "Are you their leader?" Then you ask, I don't want the money, if I know, tell you. But my wife has never heard of any treasure or anything in her life, so don't you kidnap the wrong person, right? ”
The middle-aged man chuckled lowly, and suddenly called out her name, "Seventh Grandma, what I want to ask is the former tofu Shih Tzu." Today's Princess Ping, is Hui Niang born to the Shi family? ”
With just this sentence, Grandma Seven's face changed instantly, "Who are you?" Why do you ask? ”
"You don't care who I am, just tell me honestly."
The seventh grandmother obviously hesitated, and said, "Hui Niang is the Shi family's two who have pulled and urine since they were children, of course they are their daughters. ”
The middle-aged man's voice was closer, "What I asked is, is she the Shi family." Biological daughter. ”
Grandma Seven was a little flustered. "What the hell do you want to do? Didn't you see that people were rich and noble, and wanted to pretend to be his relatives? I can tell you, I won't do such a bad thing for you. ”
Quietly, the middle-aged man said. "That said. Hui Niang is really not born to the Shi family. ”
Grandma Seven was in a hurry. "I mean, what the hell is going on with you?"
Before she could finish speaking, suddenly there was a child's milky cry, "Grandma." Grandmother! ”
The seventh grandmother was shocked and frightened, "Dog? Did you catch a dog? ”
The child was quickly gagged and stopped crying, but the seventh grandmother became more and more flustered and angry, "What do you robbers want to do?" Children who are just over two years old, can you do it? ”
There was a little more majesty in the middle-aged man's voice, "We can't do it, it's up to you to tell the truth." Say! ”
The seventh grandmother trembled with fright, and struggled for a long time before she choked up and said, "I, I said...... Hui Niang, she, she is ......"
It didn't take long for her words to finish, and the blindfolded cloth was also soaked with tears.
The old man has been honest and kind all his life, and when he is old, he has done such a thing to expose people's secrets, and no one knows the pain in his heart.
The middle-aged man's questioning was not over, "Who else knows about this matter?" ”
The seventh grandmother shook her head, not wanting to bother others, "It's gone." I'm the only one alive, and Hui Niang and her mother. ”
The middle-aged man saw her so sad, and his tone softened, "Don't be afraid, old man, we won't hurt her, you can go." ”
He did what he said, and soon someone came over and helped the seventh grandmother and the little grandson out together. He got into the carriage again and sent it home.
It was not until she was in the woods at the entrance of her village that a blindfolded young man laid her down, untied the ropes from her hands and the black cloth that blindfolded her, and gave her ten taels of silver.
But the seventh grandmother threw the ten taels of silver into the pond in the village, only holding her little grandson tightly, and staggered home with tears.
She wouldn't tell anyone about it. But this guilt is destined to be brought into the coffin.
On the other side, Ji Longfeng, who finally asked the truth, had just come up with a clever plan and wanted to summon his subordinates over to give advice, but suddenly someone came to report, "General, things in Xianyuan Town have changed again!" ”
What the?
Ji Longfeng was stunned, and first asked in the most incredible place, "King Ping and Weng Weng's son-in-law, compromised?" ”
"Nope! They turned against the officials! ”
The subordinates who talked back and forth were so excited that their eyes lit up, these days, those of them who stayed in Xianyuan Town from beginning to end, they really watched a good show.
First of all, the attack of King Ping and his son-in-law, and then the counterattack of local officials, when everyone thought that King Ping and his son-in-law had entered a dead end, this pair of Weng and son-in-law fought back magically!
※
The county government gate of Xianyuan Town is more lively than the New Year.
The common people lined up hundreds of meters long with their families, all of them were full of red light and excited. What do you want to ask them for? Good thing!
What's the good thing? Get the silver!
Looking at the villagers in front of him who came out happily with fifty taels of silver, the people queuing up behind him were excited, "Is there anything else?" ”
"Yes, yes! Do you have all your belongings? If you can't bring it, you won't be given it, and it will be gone if you run again. ”
"Then come and talk about it, see what the shortcomings are, and quickly ask my boy to go back and get it."
I still wanted to inquire, but no one had the time to take care of it, so they all inquired around the person who had successfully received the money.
The kind man pointed to the side, "You have to inquire, and the one who follows the gong is the soldier." ”
From afar, I heard the soldier's full voice clearly, "As long as the male who is at least eighteen or fifty years old, in good health, and has no disabilities, can find more than three neighbors as a guarantor, he can go to the county office to receive fifty taels of silver and one ingot." Send this silver to the Pingwang Mansion in the capital within three months, remember that you can use this silver to go to the official road! You can get a letter of guarantee issued by King Ping, and you will be exempted from military service for life! Or, take a letter of guarantee to enter the capital to join the army, and guarantee to eat the emperor's food! Limited to one place per household. First come, first served. If you have a tea field, you can give it to the two, but if you come late, there will be nothing! ”
What the? Is there such a thing?
Can't believe it? Please look at the sword of Shang Fang at the entrance of the county office. It was given by the emperor to the county horse, can there be a fake?
But isn't this silver a tea tax? If you don't pay it, it will still be used on you.
Brother, are you dreaming? When did the yamen pay the people back? Anyway, we paid our taxes, and we don't know where to spend them.
Didn't King Ping say that your Lingzhou tea is not good? Are you still coming?
Hey, King Ping had already explained, and what he said was not good. It's some black-hearted businessmen who are not good. It's not that the tea grown by our tea farmers is bad. He came up with this idea this time, and he also wanted to do something good for the people of our Lingzhou. Especially the people of our Xianyuan Mountain, which is the closest, can take advantage of it.
Look at your bones. I can try to be a soldier. Like my daughter-in-law's uncle's cousin of the grandson of my sister-in-law. This time, I made up my mind to become a soldier. This is the soldier of the capital. It's just that you can't be famous, so it's good to open your eyes in the capital for a few years.
But such a pie in the sky, you are not afraid that he will lie to you?
How can it be? Are we really stupid? The county horse personally signed and drew the charge. He is also a native of Lingzhou. Fellow! No one can pit us?
If King Ping didn't look at his son-in-law, why would he care about our idle business? There are people in the DPRK who are easy to do. Our son-in-law married, ah no, he married the daughter of King Ping, but he married the right one.
What the? Q: How do I send the silver to the capital?
Who are you? Why should I tell you? What if you come to rob it? Anyway, our family has a way. If you want to take advantage of this, hurry up and line up behind, if you want to steal chickens and dogs, it's a dream!
……
Chai Rong's lungs were about to explode.
In the end, the emperor still gave Shang Fang the sword, but isn't the Shang Fang sword used to cut people? It's good for him to hang at the gate of the county government, is this a town demon, or is it bewitching the people?
He had already contacted him, unless Ouyang Kang bowed his head and admitted defeat, otherwise as long as he dared to transport this batch of silver, Min Ye would lead his troops to rob it. At that time, Ouyang Kang couldn't do anything, and he lost such a large amount of silver, he wanted to see that even if the Ping Wangfu could afford to lose, this reputation would be completely ruined.
But he never expected that Ouyang Kang would be so cunning. He did not take a piece of silver back to the capital, but broke it into pieces, marked all the silver, and distributed it directly to the people. Then he used the method of joining the army and exempting himself from military service to drive so many ordinary people to work for him.
Seeing that ingots of silver fell into the hands of the people, and then were carried home by families like protecting chicks, what did Chai Rong do? Could he still send someone to intercept and kill all these multi-family people?
Not to mention some villages far away from Xianyuan Town, after the people got the news, they all made an appointment from village to village. Almost the old and young masters of the whole village are carrying hoes and latches into battle, and they want to rob them of their silver, unless they slaughter the village.
"Why? Do you want to rob our family's money? "Accidentally, I moved closer to an old lady. The old man in his seventies and eighties suddenly trembled and raised his kitchen knife slightly, staring at him with presbyopia.
Chai Rong swallowed his anger and stood far away, such a strange thing, how could Rao be a powerful martial arts master?
Want to impeach Ouyang Kang's illegal operations?
What did he do? It didn't cost the court a penny, even the money for the carriage and horses was saved, and 200,000 taels of silver were sent to the capital, so could the emperor blame him for working hard and mobilizing the people?
Even if Mu Shaoqin issued a letter of guarantee for exemption from military service and escort to join the army, it would be reasonable. Whoever calls someone is the prince, he does have this qualification.
Counting all of them, it is only three or four thousand, even if all of them join the army, or all of them are exempted from military service, such a scale is a big deal in Lingzhou, but when you look at it in the world, it is a piece of cake at all.
Maybe the emperor will praise Ouyang Kang a few words, young man, with a good brain, there is a way.
Of course, such a compliment Ouyang Kang would not dare to swallow it alone. In the first half of this plan, the piece that was broken into pieces was what he thought, and the follow-up was all the idea of the old man.
Especially the one that can not only be escorted into the capital to join the army, but also exempted from military service, is simply a stroke of genius, which makes Ouyang Kang admire it so much.
One of them alone may be criticized. But Mu Shaoqin made a multi-choice, and the situation was immediately different.
This is not to shake the country's military service system, and it is also a matter of discretion to give people choices.
Worried that the people are greedy for money? This money may indeed be something they can't earn in their lifetime, but they will exchange the fifty taels for the whole family, and even to protect the lives of their neighbors?
Don't be funny! If you tease it again, it means that your brain is likely to be flooded.
(Tomorrow, resolutely release the news of the little bun.) Hehe, Kang Shao, get ready to take it. Pink is almost 100, although there is still a little distance from being on the list, but resolutely do not abandon or give up, sisters, please support more. (To be continued......)
