Chapter 126: Crazy Arrest
Zhang Lin, under the leadership of the exiles, continued to wander around the city, and soon arrived at a place where iron tools were made.
At present, the volunteers have a Mitsubishi stinging spear in their hands, and they cannot be equipped with it, because Zhangjia Village has only one iron head for iron, and there are many more blacksmiths in the county than in Zhangjiacun, and there are seven or eight blacksmiths in the past.
The appearance of the volunteers and his party, the blacksmith who was striking iron stopped the action of hammering, and looked at the situation outside, and a group of people came inexplicably, who was not curious.
Zhang Lin let the people from the county seat Yaxing go in, explaining the recruitment situation in Zhangjia Village, the craftsman who struck iron had three taels of basic silver every month, and there were various rewards according to the situation.
The people of Yaxing walked around all the blacksmith shops, and there was not a blacksmith who was willing to go to work in Zhangjia Village, and they would rather guard this ancestral shop than leave.
These blacksmiths may earn less than one tael of silver for a month, and in the face of three taels of silver in Zhangjia Village for a month, it is false to say that they are not moved, but everyone is reluctant to leave, and there is a feeling that it is difficult to give up, anyway, it is not to the point of starvation, they are willing to leave home.
Zhang Lin listened to the report, it is undeniable, these conditions are given by the chief, he is only responsible for the implementation, just now he just salutes first and then soldiers, and is willing to follow the volunteers to Zhangjia Village, naturally everyone is happy, since they do not cooperate, it is to give shame, prohibit alcohol and eat and drink, there is nothing to say.
Zhang Lin waved his hand, under the leadership of six volunteers, followed by seven or eight strong homeless people, they were responsible for the hand, the volunteers rushed into the blacksmith shop, found a rope and arrested people.
"What are you doing, let go of my father."
A young man of about fourteen years old, when he saw the volunteers coming in and arrested people, he was immediately anxious, and wanted to pick up the hammer to fight hard, but before he could get over, he was hit by the volunteers with a spear and a stick.
"Tie him up, too."
A few homeless people stepped forward and tied him up, bought one and got one free, caught the big one, and brought the small one.
Hearing the movement outside, a lady and three emaciated girls ran out of the backyard, and knelt down in fright when they saw the volunteers tying up the two pillars of the house.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I beg you, let us go!"
The three girls were also scared and cried beside them, and the scene was a tragic scene.
The volunteers asked the homeless people to take people away and throw them in a pocket, "People won't let it go, this is ten taels of silver, give them a settling-in fee, if you want to see them, go to Zhangjia Village, rest assured, just catch them and go back to strike iron, it won't hurt them." ”
Before the volunteers left, they explained by the way, just lowered their posture and came to recruit people, so it is better to cooperate violently, arrest people back, first come to a three-month free part-time job, and then give everyone a silver or two if they perform well, and continue to strike iron if they don't perform well.
As for whether their blacksmiths would rather commit suicide than work for the volunteers, then whatever, if people are caught and want to commit suicide, they will commit suicide, and if they have the ability, they will run into the charcoal stove and burn themselves as firewood, so that the volunteers will save the effort of collecting the corpses, as for the explanation of their families, what to confess, it is they who committed suicide, and it is about the nonsense of the volunteers.
The woman watched the two men in the family being taken away, and could only wipe away her tears, and now in front of the door, she watched her man and boy being tied up and taken away, and the tears flowed again, hoping that the other party did not lie to her, but just arrested the people to strike iron, otherwise she would be left with a woman with three girls in the future.
Behind her, several girls pulled the corners of the woman's clothes, looking out in horror, in addition to their family, the blacksmiths of other families were also tied up and taken away, this day was a devastating blow to the blacksmith street, everyone who could strike iron was taken away, and the rest were either women or children, could they pick up the hammer.
Zhang Lin shrugged his shoulders as the chief, what kind of people are they, it is not good to cooperate well, if the volunteers solve it violently, it doesn't matter to the volunteers, anyway, it has no effect on them.
The more than 20 blacksmiths who were tied up with ropes had a miserable expression, who knew where they were taken by these people, and what if they were some kind of murderers and cut them with a knife. The eyes secretly looked around, trying to find an opportunity to escape, but there were homeless people everywhere, and their every move was watched, and the escape plan failed.
Just now the volunteers went to arrest people, and it was not that there was no blacksmith to resist, who would be willing to be so unclear and not kidnapped, but unfortunately it was also not, after the volunteers knocked off the weapon in their hands, and then five homeless people rushed up, pressing the blacksmith who wanted to resist, and then a rope was tied to death, and there was no more.
"Iron head, you shouldn't have come out, now that we've all been arrested, what should your mother do!"
"Dad, how can I watch you get taken away by them."
Li Wen is silent, it's all at this point, what else can he say.
The woman turned off the fire of her own iron shop and closed the door, she could not do such physical work as iron, as a blacksmith's wife, she still knew this kind of trivial matter, and it was no longer necessary to open the door now, so she could be expected to strike iron.
The eldest daughter came with a cloth bag, which had been dropped by the volunteers just now, and the woman opened it and looked at it, and was so frightened that she almost threw the bag on the ground, it was all silver, pieces of small pieces of silver, and the woman poured them all out and counted them, ten taels of silver.
With the silver, the woman felt a little relieved, at least the other party had no motive to kill, otherwise she would have used the silver, and now she can only hope that the man and son in the family can live a little better.
Zhang Lin arrested people in such an open and honest manner, and no one came out to stop it, which was originally the responsibility of the government, but now there is no order from the county official, and the people of the government have no one to make up their minds, so they can only watch the volunteers do anything wrong in the county.
When Chinese people encounter things, if there is no leader, things will be like this, no one cares, as long as it doesn't happen to their heads, take care of him, and sweep the snow in front of the door.
Now the officials in the county government, they are glad that the volunteers did not come to the door, they usually bully the honest people who dare not resist, it is okay, if they really want them to fight, it will be funny, Zijian's former leader, even the bandit government like Zhang San can't be exterminated, if you really dare to provoke the volunteers, there will be a good show. The Volunteers are not good babies.
Last night, Chen Wenjie just came over to pretend to be a comparison, but he was sent back by the volunteers, and the rest of his body was taken away by the wild dog, and the Chen Mansion was also blackmailed with 20,000 taels.
There is also a Qianhu guard stationed in the county, but the Qianhu Lord is hoping that the volunteers will not come to the door at this time, as for what they like to do in the county.
The guard post has long lost its responsibility to defend the territory, and has become a source of corruption among officials, and the thousands of households eat too much empty salary, so that the remaining military households in the guard post are less than 100 people, and they dare not come forward to die.
The volunteers dared to rampage in the county town with less than 100 people, but the 1000 people in the Qianhu Guard Station shrank up and were unwilling to come out to die, and the gap was not ordinarily large.
There are a lot of private soldiers in the thousands of households, which is to protect the safety of the families of thousands of households, as for whether the people in the county town die or not, it doesn't matter if they don't die, maybe after the volunteers are gone, they can still deduct money from the family in the name of suppressing bandits.
The county has the ability to come out to stop the volunteers, and there are two families, the Wu family and the Xue family, but they are frightened by the tragic appearance of the Chen family, the conflict between the Chen family and the volunteers has almost wiped out the Chen family of the three major families, do they still have the courage to come out!
Zhang Lin took people to arrest people in the county, as long as there was a little craftsmanship in his hands, the flow became the object of the volunteers, first let the people of the tooth line come forward to intercede, promised to be happy, if it was absolutely simple, close the door and let the volunteers, did not say, came to the door with a rope to tie up.
Then he threw down ten taels of silver, said that he would not kill people, and wanted to see people in Zhangjia Village to see them, and then went out, as if he did not hear the crying behind him, and the volunteers would not kill people indiscriminately, so they took it for granted.
The family of the person who was taken away didn't know about it, so they thought they wouldn't be able to come back, and they cried like a dead child.
At noon, the volunteers caught more than 600 people in the county, all of them are craftsmen with craftsmanship in hand, seventy percent of the craftsmen in the county were captured by the volunteers, the county due to the lack of these craftsmen, will slowly fade down, don't look at the usual these craftsmen in the county quietly, but the two are undoubtedly the elite of a city, without them, the county will soon fall into ruin.
Ten craftsmen of all kinds were tied together, and the volunteers frightened them, and if one of the ten men was missing, and the remaining nine were beheaded, in the face of such a threat, the craftsmen who had the intention of fleeing were watched by their companions, and they had no chance to find a chance.
The lack of two people in the Volunteers is so powerful that now all the people with a craftsman have been arrested, even the coffin maker.
The volunteers left with a satisfied mood, and at the same time took away the essence of Maoming County, the practice of the volunteers is simply mad, this is not the ordinary people, and the essence of a city, Maoming County lost these talents, the defeat will be slowly revealed, at the same time, Zhangjia Village was originally an ordinary small village, due to the addition of a large number of talents, rapid development will be inevitable.
