Chapter 111: Begging for food with a golden rice bowl

Shen Jincai put down the teacup, raised his head and said with a straight face: "Oh...... They all say that they are a family, so what is polite, just talk about it, just talk about it. ”

Wu Zheng glanced at Shen Zhiyuan and said: "Uncle Shen also knows that now that the imperial court's financial resources are tight, Wu Zheng's three thousand mouths are waiting to be fed, so he has no choice but to come to Uncle Shen for help." Wu Zheng wanted to borrow some silver from Uncle Shen, not much, just six thousand taels, and when the imperial court allocated the silver taels, Wu Zheng would definitely pay it back as soon as possible. ”

Six thousand taels, you can pay a month's salary, so that you can spend this year safely.

Shen Jincai's face slowly became solemn.

"Lord Wu, although the Shen family is a wealthy family, this silver is not blown by the wind. After you returned to Shining Town, you took six thousand taels of silver from the Shen family twice. Now that he wants six thousand taels, Shen really can't do anything. ”

In an instant, Shen Jincai's chubby, friendly smiling face disappeared and became Shen Bancheng.

"Uncle Shen, I really didn't know about the previous five thousand taels in advance, but since it was in my hands, I will definitely return it in the future. As for the last thousand taels, I asked Zhiyuan to exchange it for the Jade Buddha. Today's matter is a bit abrupt, but Wu Zheng promised to borrow and repay, and hoped that Uncle Shen would help. ”

Shen Zhiyuan persuaded on the side: "Dad, Wu Zheng is his own person, and besides, he didn't spend the money himself, and when the court allocates the money, he will pay you back." ”

When Shen Bancheng heard this, he turned his head and snorted angrily at Shen Zhiyuan: "Raising a daughter is like raising a robber, if you don't want to raise a son who is more ruthless than a robber, you might as well chop your father up, sell bones and meat to help him!" I've never seen your elbows bent outwards like yours. ”

"Your father doesn't want to help him. If he used the money himself, his father would have gritted his teeth and given it to him, but his money was a meat bun beating a dog, and there was no return. The court had no money, so it raised its own money. 3,000 mouths, plus his lavish spending, two taels per person, is 6,000 taels a month, and no matter how big the family is, it will be gone. Tell you, it's not your turn to be in this house. ”

Speaking of this, Shen Bancheng slowly turned his head, squeezed out a smile and said to Wu Zheng: "Look, Lord Wu, Shen really can't help with this. ”

Wu Zheng couldn't hear that Shen Bancheng said this to himself.

Shen Bancheng had already picked up the teacup and scraped it with the lid of the bowl.

Wu Zheng understands, that is called serving tea and sending guests.

Helpless, Wu Zheng got up and arched his hand and said: "In this case, Wu Zheng is not good at forcing it, so he can only think of another way, disturb Uncle Shen, Wu Zheng will leave." ”

Shen Zhiyuan stomped his feet and said, "Dad, you really don't help?" If you don't help Wu Zheng this time, I'll ...... I'm not coming back. ”

Shen Bancheng forcefully put the tea bowl in his hand on the table, spilled the tea on the table, and said sharply: "The door is there, please!" Lao Tzu should not have given birth to your bastard son. ”

Before Shen Zhiyuan could speak, Wu Zheng grabbed him, "Forget it, you can't blame Uncle Shen for this, let's go back first, and then think of another way." ”

The two of them walked out the door.

I didn't want Shen Bancheng's voice to come from behind him, "Lord Wu, in fact, Shen is very puzzled, why are you begging for food with a golden rice bowl?" ”

Wu Zheng was stunned for a moment, stopped, and looked back at Shen Bancheng with Shen Zhiyuan.

"Uncle Shen, what do you mean by this?"

Shen Bancheng said: "What is the most valuable thing in your hands now?" ”

Wu Zheng thought about it and said puzzledly: "Wuzhuang's fields and shops have been rented to those people, and the only thing worth a little money is Wuzhuang's house, but that's where my father and sister live...... ”

Shen Bancheng raised his hand and said: "Shen is not talking about this, I am talking about the three thousand people in your hand, which is your golden rice bowl." ”

Wu Zheng didn't understand even more, "What does Uncle Shen mean...... Well, it won't be for me to lead troops to rob the rich families in the township...... right? ”

Shen Bancheng almost vomited blood, pointed at Wu Zheng, and said with a trembling finger: "Look, you are also a smart person, how can Shen instruct you to rob a rich man?" ”

Shen Zhiyuan stood on his father's side at this time, rolled his eyes at Wu Zheng and said, "That's it, how can you instruct someone to rob you." ”

Wu Zheng's eyes lit up and he looked at Shen Bancheng.

Shen Bancheng was furious, his fingers were so angry that he pointed at Shen Zhiyuan trembling and shouting, "Get out...... Get lost...... You're going to die outside! ”

Wu Zheng hurriedly stepped forward and helped Shen Bancheng back to sit down, "Uncle Shen rest assured, no matter how bastard Wu Zheng is, he won't do such things that are a disaster for the villagers." ”

Shen Bancheng glanced at Wu Zheng and said: "Maybe this is a rabbit that bites people when they are in a hurry, Shen heard that someone robbed his in-laws for a few mouthfuls of food and killed people." ”

Wu Zheng sweated profusely, which pot was not opened, as soon as he let go, Shen Bancheng sat empty, sat on the ground and shouted.

Shen Zhiyuan hurriedly stepped forward to help, kicked Wu Zheng hard, and scolded: "My father was injured, I'm not done with you." ”

Wu Zheng was also nervous, and together with Shen Zhiyuan, he helped Shen Bancheng up.

Fortunately, the shock is greater than the injury, nothing serious.

Shen Bancheng nodded at Shen Zhiyuan with satisfaction, at a critical time, his son was still reliable.

"Wu Zheng, I mean, you didn't want to let those 3,000 people move the nest?"

"What are you doing?"

"You...... You haven't heard of several nests of bandits and bandits on Pinggang Mountain. ”

Wu Zheng heard a flash of inspiration, "What does Uncle Shen mean to suppress bandits?" Wrong...... What kind of money can those bandits and bandits have, and most of them are just croppers who have no way to live, and keeping them may be able to help the court fight against the Qing Dynasty. ”

Shen Bancheng shook his head and said, "You...... Dream your big dreams! Maybe in the past, it was you who said that, they were all crops with no way to live. But now it has long been different, these years the world is in turmoil, refugees from all over the country are like a tide, Pinggang Mountain is connected to the Siming Mountains, many brave and ruthless people who have come from the flow gather there, robbing everywhere, more than hundreds, less than dozens of people, the surrounding people, passers-by are miserable. Just a few days ago, you knocked on the bamboo pole of the Chen family, and ....... ”

Wu Zhenghong said with an old face on his head: "Uncle Shen, you know the reason why I took the Chen family's grain, why do you still mention this?" ”

Shen Bancheng glanced at Wu Zheng and said, "If you don't mention it, don't mention it, what are you...... After that, Huang Xian Ling ran away, didn't Huang Boyan sell his house and land cheaply, loaded a few cars of property, and wanted to leave Shining Town to vote elsewhere. ”

Wu Zheng shook his head and said, "I really want to take revenge, but isn't it three fierce battles in a row, and I can't spare time?" ”

Shen Bancheng opened his mouth wide, was stunned for a long time, and finally closed it, and came with this sentence: "My Tao was discovered by your conscience, and you were merciful, it turned out to be ...... Now it's okay, you also remember, not long after the Huang family went on the road, they were robbed by bandits on Pinggang Mountain, not to mention the loss of money, a family of more than ten people, all of them were on the side of the road, poor Huang family's daughters...... Hey, that's a miserable one. ”

Wu Zheng scolded secretly in his heart, should!
