Verbal criticism and writing, everyone spurned, it is no longer enough to describe this scene, Wang Zhong and the three of them, under the siege and scolding of the villagers, are red-faced and red-eared, and they can't move a step.

Xi Duyun stopped their invective words, looked at Wang Zhong and said, "This is a new opportunity for your village, do you know how much benefit this matter has brought you?" If the dam project is really completed, the volcanic ash will become a favorite building material for the dignitaries, and when the time comes, I will ask the five princes to report to the emperor and let you cooperate with the government to jointly develop this mountainous area, how much money will you earn at that time? ”

"Cooperative government?" When the village chief heard these four words, his lips trembled slightly, which he couldn't think of, cooperating with the government, can they really cooperate with the government?

"Yes, I've thought about it, if the dam project is successful, I will definitely explain the reason to the five princes, but now it seems that there are such narrow-minded people in your village, then I don't need to say it anymore." Xi Duyun sneered and turned around to leave, but the village chief hurriedly stopped her and fell to her knees with a thud.

Where had Xi Duyun seen this kind of posture, and he was immediately stunned, so he hurriedly picked up the village chief and said, "What is this for?" ”

"Miss Xi, all the mistakes are my fault." The village chief said with a handful of snot and tears: "It's me who didn't teach these people well, don't worry, there will be no such thing in the future!" ”

"Why should I believe you, do you know how big my loss is, do you know that the people outside are displaced, the dam matter is urgent, these people can do such a big rebellious thing for their own selfish desires, it is really heart-wrenching!" Xi Duyun said coldly.

The village chief wiped his sweat, "This is indeed our fault, the fifth prince's side, and I also ask Miss Xi to say a lot of kind words." ”

"It'......s not impossible for me to speak for you," Xi Duyun muttered deliberately, but the village chief was startled, "Miss Xi won't let us pay for the loss, right?" ”

"I said that I don't need you to compensate, so naturally I won't break my promise." Xi Duyun just wanted the village chief to punish Wang Zhong for a small punishment, the village chief thought about it for a while, quickly reacted, and immediately said: "Miss Xi, don't worry, the family has family rules, the country has national laws, we won't spare these three people, but after all, they grew up in the village since childhood, and it is not appropriate to punish them too severely, you see, just lock them up for a month, how about it?" ”

Xi Duyun thought about it, the village chief probably made this decision for the sake of this matter being able to go smoothly, so he nodded in agreement, "Village chief, I will let them go so easily for the sake of your face, otherwise it will be more than enough to send them to the government and sit in prison for ten years based on the losses he has brought us." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone thanked them, not to mention that they themselves hated the actions of Wang Zhong and others, but because of the face of the same village, it was not good to say anything, if Xi Duyun really wanted to send them to the official mansion, the people in the village would naturally not gossip, but they didn't expect Xi Murong to spare them so generously, and they were immediately even more grateful to Xi Murong.

Xi Duyun looked at Wang Zhong and the others, and felt a little strange in his heart, would anyone really do thankless things?

Wang Zhong still looked at her with hatred, it seems that even if this kind of person is good to him, he doesn't appreciate it, in fact, the hard work is not in vain, as long as it can stabilize the hearts of the people in the village, it is enough, this is an extraordinary time, don't have an accident at this time.

Wang Zhong and several others were pushed and dragged to the village and locked up.

Xi Duyun thought of another thing at that time, and asked the village chief, "Where is Wang Zhong's family?" Can I go check it out? ”

The village chief sighed, "What are you doing with that thing that was warm?" ”

"I was just thinking that I brought the opportunity to make money to him, why didn't he do it? When he talked to me about business before, he didn't look like a person who likes to work hard, but he can be regarded as able to endure some hardships, how can he make trouble at this time? Xi Duyun said.

The village chief didn't understand these outside flowers, so he just nodded and agreed: "You're right, Wang Zhong can also endure hardships, and when he said he wouldn't do it at first, I was really surprised." ”

"It's not good for oneself to harm others, no one will do such a thing." Xi Duyun said.

The village chief seems to have understood something, "You mean ......" 000 literature

Xi Duyun smiled, "It's just a guess, take me to see it." ”

The village chief nodded, and led Xi Duyun to a low earthen house, the roof of the house was covered with a damp smell of dampness in the thatched house, in fact, every family here is like this, they are used to being poor, so they cherish the opportunity to make money so much.

Xi Duyun looked around, it was really a house with four walls, there was no rice in the rice jar, there were a few yellow-flour flatbreads on the table in the back room, and other than that, there was nothing to eat or anything valuable.

It's not that he has money, and he doesn't cherish the opportunity to make money in front of him, so there must be something tired of it.

Xi Duyun searched everywhere, but couldn't find anything, so he turned back to the village chief and asked, "If you have something valuable, where do you put it?" ”

"Hey, what do I have anything of value?" The village chief smiled and shook his head.

"It's been a lot of money in the past two days, where will you hide the money?" Xi Duyun asked again.

"Carry a few copper plates with me, and I'll put the rest in a clay pot and bury it." The village chief said.

Xi Duyun nodded thoughtfully, if he had received a favor from someone, the money would not be too far away from him, so he searched around the back of the house, and finally found that there were traces of loosening under the floor tiles of the house.

She opened the floor tile, only to see that the soil inside was very soft, and when she swept the soil on it, there was a butter paper bag inside, and she took it out and it was heavy, I don't know what it was, and when she opened it, he and the village chief were both stunned.

A gold bar thicker than a finger, lying quietly inside, no wonder it was so heavy, she laughed, and seemed to be just as she thought, "Do you think he will have this gold bar?" ”

The village chief swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his hand trembled slightly as he picked up the gold bar, "This, is this true?" He had never seen it in his life, and if there had been such a gold bar, the village would not have been so poor.

"It's true." Xi Duyun put the gold back into the oiled paper bag, put it back into the soil, covered the floor tiles, and looked at the village chief, "Don't talk about today's things. ”

The village chief was so surprised that he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, and finally just nodded mechanically, and said hesitantly: "How can he have gold bars?" ”

"It's not easy." Xi Duyun pondered for a while and said, "I think it may have something to do with the court, village chief, I want to ask you for one thing, don't tell this matter until the matter is clear, you shouldn't have seen this gold bar." ”

The village chief hurriedly patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, I promise not to say anything about this matter, you are the great benefactor of our village, I will definitely listen to your words." ”

"When the deed is done, there will be a great reward." Xi Duyun said immediately.

"W-what's so embarrassing?" The village chief immediately resigned.

"I won't do you any wrong." Xi Duyun smiled, she had to give what she should give, and she couldn't let the people who helped her chill her heart.

All traces of the future tense were erased, and after she went back, she asked Gu Jianglin's people to report the situation here to Gu Jianglin to see what he had in mind or what countermeasures he had.
