"Third uncle! This must be a new trick of blackmail that Lao Ba came up with! One of his nephews, Liu Guangbiao, couldn't help but say

Liu Guangbiao studied business in Fucheng, and he can plan to keep accounts and understand all kinds of business tricks, which is a great talent in Lingao, so the Liu family simply asked him to come back and become a general account office to manage the family's industry.

Liu Youren didn't say anything, Chen Minggang took the opportunity to blackmail this is needless to say. The question is: do Australians have any plans to do so? Is it just to use this to knock the mountain and shock the tiger and force everyone to have a few more "reasonable burdens", or do you really want to find out the number of acres in the county and start from scratch in a new way of changing the dynasty?

It's a big difference here. If it is just to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, the countermeasure is easy, it is nothing more than to buy Chen Minggang with more benefits, let him report another 100 acres of land, and give him more money and food; If it's the latter, things are a lot more troublesome.

Liu Youren has always been a very assertive person, and he also fell into hesitation at this time. Australians are no more efficient, decisive than the government, and they are a group that dares to do things. He had already seen this. With Wu Mingjin, a "good official" who is still in the past, he has never done something in the county, but the Australians came, and they did what they said, and they did many difficult things one by one. Even if they really want to carry out a thorough county-wide household cleanup, it is not surprising.

It's useless to think about how Kao used to deal with the government and bandits. Come hard, the Australians are not afraid of massacres, and they will probably be happy to give them such an opportunity; The Australians are surprisingly incorruptible, and money bribes are of no use to them.

What do Australians really want to do? Liu Youren thought that if he really wanted to be in the field, he might still honestly report the number of acres in his family to be the best choice, and as for the land in his own name, he would not be busy. But if this is just a bluff, he is so honest, he is just a cheap servant for nothing, and he is ridiculed in vain - he can't afford to lose this share.

"What did Master Zhang say?" He asked. The so-called Master Zhang is Zhang Youfu, the mediator.

He said that he had been there, and that Chief Wu, who had handled the matter, was not at home. Others don't care about it, and they don't know. ”

"Not at home." Liu Youren chewed on the taste of these words, "Really not at home?" He muttered to himself, this group of people is really unfathomable.

"The farmer of the Heaven and Earth Society-Nong-"

"Agricultural technician." Liu Guangbiao said.

"Yes, is Master Yun here?" Master Yun, Xun Suji is also. Because of the shortage of agricultural professionals, he has a lot of experience in growing vegetables, and he has also been hired as a part-time agricultural technician by the Tiandi Society, of course, he has undergone special training in advance. The people of the Heaven and Earth Society now have a mysterious aura in the minds of the people of Lingao, so Ye Yuming would rather find a traveler who is a monk halfway than use an indigenous agricultural technician for the time being, just like in the early days of reform and opening up, everyone especially believed in foreign goods.

"He's coming on Wednesday."

Liu Youren calculated, it would take seven or eight days for him to come, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed. If this Xun Suji had come, he would have tried to find out what was going on inside them—it would be nice to find out something.

It's a pity that the general benefits, they are not interested. Liu Youren once again sighed at the invulnerability of the traverser's invulnerable spirit of public service. It is really not customary for those who are in power not to accept bribes.

Liu Guangbiao is very clever, knowing that the head of the family is worried about this matter, he already has an idea in his heart, and now he feels that the time is ripe.

"Sanbo!" Liu Guangbiao said cautiously, "Meilan in the fourth room, she is not young, she is tall and tall, and she has never been able to find a suitable in-law-" As he spoke, his eyes rolled on Liu Youren's face.

"Oh!" Of course, Liu Youren knows what this nephew wants to say, the road of money can't go nowhere, and women may be able to. He has long heard that there are very few women in Australians, and many people have nothing to do except watch "secret shadow plays" all day long......

Liu Youren used to think about sending a woman like a maid to Xun Suji as a reward. But thinking that the maids in Liujiazhai are not as good as the maids of big families in the city, not only are they from peasant families, but they also work all day long in the Liu family, with rough hands and feet, and dark skin. The Lord had never shown the slightest interest in them.

In contrast, it is better for a girl in his clan to marry him. After all, the maid is an outsider, and she is a slave when she marries, and she has no status and will not be valued. If he really marries Xun Suji, he will have to take care of his wife's mother's family.

Liu Meilan is a girl in the fourth room, because she is tall and strong, she has always been ridiculed - she has no appearance of a girl, and she still has no in-laws in the blink of an eye after nineteen. The nieces and granddaughters of this clan can be considered. This family does not have a high status in the clan, and even if they don't want to, they don't dare to disobey it.

Liu Youren nodded, thinking that it would not cost much: the Meilan family is a distant branch, even if the Australians are defeated by the government in the future, it will not be too much of a burden to the family, and it is a sacrificial pawn.

"Good. Go tell her daddy! Liu Youren made up his mind.

"Yes," Liu Guangbiao secretly agreed, he had another dark intention in his heart. Liu Meilan had offended him in the past because of the matter of collecting sacrificial rice, and he had long wanted to take revenge.

"Hmph, I'm going to throw you into the fire pit this time to taste the wax." Liu Guangbiao heard an aborigine who had watched the Australian's "secret shadow play" in Dongmen City said very mysteriously that Australians are very obscene in sexual affairs: they like to tie women up like zongzi, and then torture them with all kinds of torture, and they also like to use candles to drip women's **......

Liu Youren didn't know the dark thoughts of his clan nephew. He pondered for a while and said, "Tomorrow you prepare a post, please come on Tuesday." ”

"Don't invite Chen Baye?"

"I'm afraid I can't move him now." Liu Youren said, "Zhou Qi is his eldest apprentice, and his words are just as effective. ”

"Come on, send Eighth Master Chen." Huang Shoutong greeted.

"Don't dare, don't dare, please stay with Master Huang-" Chen Minggang smiled all over his face and left with his subordinates.

Huang Shoutong watched them go out of the courtyard gate, and beckoned the housekeeper: "How many of his subordinates have been sent away?" ”

"Back to the old man," said the housekeeper, "three hundred 'straw sandal money' per person, and a meal of wine and dinner." ”

"Okay, there you go." Huang Shoutong coughed, and his second son Huang Yukun hurriedly came over to help him. Huang Shoutong has been injured since he participated in the counteroffensive last year, and his health is not as good as before.

"Out of the way." He said, asking, "Why don't you go to the county school recently?" ”

"The son is not a child, so he doesn't have to go in the first place."

"It's not going to be done." Huang Shoutong shook his head and said, "You are a showman, you have to be a person to shine in the court." ”

Huang Yukun smiled bitterly: "Master, you don't know that the Ming Dynasty has been founded for more than 200 years, and there have not been ten people in the county, and the son is about not such a big blessing." ”

Huang Shoutong shook his head and said, "Even if it is a paper in the field, you must not be too decadent." He returned to the hall of the back house and sat down, "Now that the county is disturbed by the Australians, everyone is a little uninterested in studying, the more you do this, the more you will work your homework, so as not to waste ......"

Huang Yukun thought that his father was going to discuss with him about the Australian Zhangtian's harvest of autumn fu, but he didn't expect that the opening remarks were a cliché asking him to study hard, and he couldn't help but wonder if his father was a little stupid.

"Sir!" He couldn't help but say, "What are you going to do about this autumn fu?" ”

"Hmph, this gang of thieves is simply disobedient." Huang Shoutong slapped the table very emotionally, "Zhangtian is also what they did?!" ”

"Sir, how do we deal with it?"

"There's a lot of mystery about this." Huang Shoutong said, "What kind of Australian ecstasy *soul* medicine did this person take to help the thieves toss the grain households so energetically?" He snorted, "Does he think that this world will be a thief from now on?" There is really no Heavenly Principle King Law! ”

"This kind of pawn is nothing more than mercenary. Don't be angry, sir. ”

"Zhangtian's matter is just a false shot for the eighth child." Huang Shoutong said, "He didn't plan to take any field at all, he wanted to use this excuse to force everyone to pay more grain, so that he could please the Australians and reap a lot of benefits." ”

"Yes, my son thinks so too, and the thief was probably moved by the eighth child's words, thinking that he could collect more food. Today, seeing the words of the eighth child is very lively, and the son wants to give him some more personal benefits, apportionment to the reasonable burden in the village, and add dozens of stones......"

"No, although Zhangtian is a false shot, but things are not so simple." Huang Shou waved his hand in unison, "Who is the thief, who will be played with by Lao Ba like this?" ”

"And what do they want to do?"

"Money and food are probably not their main purpose," Huang Yukun said, "Think about it, how much oil and water can Lingao have?" Besides, if they want to ask the liaison officer to take care of it, which village would dare not pay it? Why do you need to pick the old eight to make a fortune? A lot of manipulation - they are drunkards, not drinking. ”

"Are they trying to take advantage of—"

"Kill the chickens and make an example of the monkeys!" Huang Shoutong had a gloomy face, "Take advantage of this opportunity to stand up!" I think it's easier for the small household this time - not only is it easy, but there are also some benefits to it. For a big family like us, this level is not easy to pass. ”

Huang Yukun suddenly became nervous: If you want to say who is the most hated by the big family in Lingao, his own family and Liu Dalin are about to be called a double match. When dealing with thieves, one was to give advice, and the other was to fight in person. The thief has probably hated him for a long time. But Liu Dalin has the hat of "the only jinshi in this county", and his reputation is very great, and the thief has to buy it. From the reopening of Jasmine Xuan Academy last time, we know that Liu Dalin is the target of their focus. In contrast, his own house is a very haode target. (！ )
