Chapter Twenty-Three: The Wicked Have Their Own Grinding
Chapter 23 The wicked have their own evildoers
Guo Jiabao, in the courtyard of Guo Papi's house. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Guo Papi was holding an old cigarette gun in his mouth, carrying it with one hand, and was pacing back and forth in the yard, Guo Shiling and Guo Er, who followed him and was lobbying for Xu Guoren: "Dad, the security team doesn't have a gun, how can they protect us Guo Jiabao?" In case the bandits come again, it will be our family who will suffer.
You think, give some money now, and keep safe in the future, it's a good deal! ”
"You stinky girl, why hasn't Xu Guoren's kid come to me for money yet, you want to go first?" Guo Papi stopped with some dissatisfaction, turned around and glared at Guo Shiling.
Guo Shiling stuck out his tongue and said with a smile: "Dad, Xu Guoren said, if you want to buy a gun, the thousand yuan you gave will definitely not be enough." ”
"Did he really say that?" Guo Papi said with some pain: "A thousand yuan is not enough, so how much do you want?" ”
"Dad, don't be reluctant, you think, if the bandits come again, when the time comes, it will be as simple as spending thousands of yuan to rob our family of money and food." Guo Shiling followed the path of seduction and threat.
"Hmph, what do you know about your little girl, take out all the money, what are we going to eat and drink?" Guo Papi snorted coldly.
"Then, if you don't pay, who will pay?" Guo Shiling said.
Guo Papi groaned for a while, and said cunningly: "Didn't Xu Guoren, this kid, say, the security team not only protects our Guojiabao, but also is responsible for protecting all the villages within a radius of ten miles, so the landlords within a radius of ten miles have the obligation to pay, let Xu Guoren find them to raise money." I'm not going to do that. ”
At this time, a nursing home came to report: "Master, Captain Xu of the security team asks to see you." ”
"Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive, let him in." Guo Papi waved his hand and said, "Just tell him what I think." ”
"Daddy!" Guo Shiling was a little anxious.
"Go, little girl knows something, go back to the house." Guo Papi said with a serious face.
Guo Shiling pouted and just left, Xu Guoren walked into the Guo family compound with a smiling face and Guo Hu.
"Uncle Guo!" Xu Guoren raised his hand to greet him, as if he had seen a relative.
"Nephew Xu Xian, come to me for something?" Guo asked neatly.
"There's something wrong, isn't this the establishment of our security team, and now the brothers don't have anything to do with it." Xu Guoren said with a smile: "I plan to buy a batch of robbing, with the gun stick, our waist will be hard, next time the bandits come again, we are not afraid, but the money is not enough, so please Uncle Guo dial some more." ”
"Guoren, it's not that I don't want to pay any more, it's really tight on money, you look at my family, I have to eat and drink, and the expenses are very large." Guo Papi said sincerely: "You see if this will work, Uncle Guo, I will give you an idea, when the security team was established a few days ago, didn't you say that our security team will not only protect Guojiabao, but also protect compatriots in other villages in ten miles and eight townships."
In this case, they should also contribute, so, you have to think from the landlords of other villages! ”
When Xu Guoren heard this, he immediately scolded in his heart, okay, you Guo Papi, who doesn't know that there is only you, a real landlord and old wealth, where do you let me go to find a landlord who can take out one or two thousand oceans in one go?
Otherwise, why don't the bandits pay attention to other people's homes and come to you specifically to find your bad luck?
This old thing really doesn't see a coffin, and it doesn't cry.
However, the wicked have their own evildoers, and Xu Guoren has his own ways to cure him.
After hearing this, Xu Guoren was not angry, and frowned and muttered: "In this case, the little nephew has no choice, there is no money to buy a gun, so he can only disband the security team, and he can't come again next time the bandits come and let the brothers fight with others with burning sticks, right?" They were all raised by their fathers and mothers, and whoever lost their lives was distressed! ”
As he spoke, Xu Guoren arched his hand, turned around and left, and said to Guo Hu as he walked: "Oh, Huzi, you said that the bandits suffered such a big loss last time, and they didn't even snatch a grain of grain, will they give up?" ”
Guo Hu was smart and immediately realized: "Definitely not, maybe they are all thinking about how to fight back now." ”
"The security team is about to be disbanded, this Guojiabao is not safe, let's take our father and mother away from home, so as not to lose our personal wealth when we get it." Xu Guoren sighed and said.
Guo Papi was terrified when he heard it, recalling the terrifying scene of the bandit attack last time, he suddenly couldn't hold his breath, and when Xu Guoren was about to step out of the door of his house, he hurriedly waved and shouted: "Virtuous nephew stay!" ”
Xu Guoren immediately stopped, turned around and asked, "Uncle Guo, are you still in trouble?" By the way, after the disbandment of the security team, I will ask Huzi to send you the remaining hundreds of oceans, and if you spend it, you will not be able to return it, after all, the disbandment of the security team will also make the brothers feel dissatisfied, and if you want the military salary back, you will be angry. ”
Guo Papi said a little anxiously: "Oh, virtuous nephew, I will pay the money, I can't pay the money, you said that it is all over this, you disband the security team again, the people of ten miles and eight towns scolded me for not saying it, and when the time comes, the bandits will come again, but what can be done!" ”
"Uncle Guo, don't you have a nurse?" Xu Guoren teased with a smile.
"Oh, these few of them, that's okay!" Guo Papi was afraid of Xu Guoren, why didn't he find this little bastard so insidious before, and said with a painful look: "How much money is missing." ”
Xu Guoren said: "To buy fifty long and short guns, it takes a total of eight thousand yuan, and I still have nearly a thousand yuan in my hand, Uncle Guo, you can give me another seven thousand yuan." ”
"What? To be so expensive? Guo Papi was taken aback when he heard this, 8,000 pieces of ocean, how much grain can be exchanged for it? For many years the land has been sown in vain.
Xu Guoren also knows that in this era, taking out so much money at once is definitely not a small amount, and he can't blindly scare Guo Papi, in case the game collapses, it will not be good.
Therefore, he persuaded in a soothing tone: "Uncle Guo, listen to me, it hurts to pay some money now, but I guarantee that it won't be long before you can return to your capital, and you can also keep your family business and your family's lives safe, which is definitely a double win." ”
"How do you get it back? You say it lightly. Guo Papi looked like a dead father and mother, and said angrily.
"You see, as long as our security forces are really armed and have combat effectiveness, first of all, we can ensure that one side is peaceful, so that we can intercept taxes, and villages within a radius of dozens of miles are no longer allowed to pay rent to the county government, but will be handed over to us, so that we will have a stable source of tax revenue.
Second, when the time is ripe, I will take the security team to suppress the bandits, and the bandits' lair will have a lot of money, food, weapons and ammunition, and they will not lose money by fighting to feed the war. I assure you that half of the annual tax will be given to you, which will be regarded as making up for your current capital contributions, until the eight thousand oceans are replenished. Xu Guoren said eloquently.
"You said it easily, the county government can let us withhold taxes? Isn't this a rebellion? Although Guo Papi was very excited, he was also very scared.
"What year is it now, it is a troubled time, of course, whoever has a hard fist in the troubled times, who will call the shots, when the time comes, we have guns, and what can the county government do to me?" As long as the security team is armed, Xu Guoren is really not afraid of Wang Zhenxing's police station, they can't even exterminate the bandits, let alone the fully equipped security team.
"At that time, we can also reduce the amount of taxes slightly lower than the county government, so that we are not afraid that the people will not pay taxes!" Xu Guoren added.
Guo Papi's heart was moved when he heard it, if this was the case, his 8,000 yuan would not only be able to return to his capital, but also have the hope of making a lot of money. And as Xu Guoren said, he can also be blessed to save his property and the lives of his family.
Therefore, gritting his teeth and stomping his feet, Guo Papi agreed to Xu Guoren's request.
