How poor is Mojia Village!

As long as you inquire, you will understand that in every surrounding village, everyone has only one impression when they mention Mojia Village, poor! 'Marry a daughter and don't marry Mojia Village, I'd rather throw it in the riverside' has become a local saying, and anyone who can get by is unwilling to let their daughter marry into Mojia Village and suffer from poverty.

Therefore, every year, women from Mojia Village get married, but it is rare to see men from Mojia Village marry, and over time, the entire Mojia Village has hoarded a large number of singles.

But it's one thing to hear about it, it's another thing to see it with your own eyes.

Under the leadership of Uncle Li and Fu Bo, Morton saw the real Mojia Village, a potholed dirt road running through the village, and the road was full of villagers' domestic sewage, black and emitting an unpleasant smell. On both sides of the road are low thatched houses, and a bleak autumn wind blows, driving a lot of thatch to fly in the sky.

An old man with gray hair rushed out of the room, trying to chase back the thatch that had been blown away, but watching the thatch fly higher and higher, he finally gave up in despair, and finally returned to the house with a curse.

"Whew!"

Morton exhaled solemnly and said, "Let's go!" ”

Walking forward along the potholed path, Fuber and Li Yi glanced at each other, and followed closely behind Merton.

"There are a total of 960 households in Mojia Village, a total of 3,512 people, this is your Uncle Wang's family, Uncle Wang used to be the master's personal guard, and he was a first-class hero in the Shengong Camp back then."

Fauber pointed to a lean one-armed old man in front of a thatched hut.

"Uncle Wang." Merton saluted respectfully.

"The young master has tormented the old man!" Uncle Wang hurriedly replied.

"This is your Uncle Yu, known as Master Yu, making fish is a must, he was the leader of the gang in the army back then, and now the saint has eaten Master Yu's meal when he was in the army, which is full of praise." Li Yi pointed to a middle-aged man in his forties in a nearby house.

"Hello Master Yu!" Merton greeted.

"It's ......"

"It's ......"

One by one, Merton greeted the past.

Hearing that the little master came out to inspect the village, many villagers poured out of their homes one after another, vying to watch and say hello.

"Hello young master!"

"Young master!"

"Little sir!"

……

Although the greetings are different, everyone respects Merton from the bottom of their hearts, after all, Merton takes out his own money every year to relieve Mojia Village. Although Mojia Village is the poorest village within a radius of dozens of miles, it is the most united.

In addition, the Mo family advocates and loves all living beings, and the whole village helps each other, no matter how big the disaster year, the Mojia village has never starved to death.

And Merton looked at the respectful eyes of the villagers, and couldn't help but feel sour, because he found that many of the villagers did not have a complete set of clothes, and most of them were wearing very old patches.

And now it's winter, many villagers are still wearing single clothes, everyone is yellow and thin, and their eyes reveal misery.

What's even more poignant is that all the people who come out are a group of men, there are very few young women, and there are too many singles in Mojia Village.

"How many men in Mojia Village have not married?" Merton asked in a deep voice.

"Three hundred and fifty-one people over the age of eighteen have not married, from the sixth year of Wude to this year, a total of twenty families have been married in Mojia Village last year, and this year there is no villager to marry!" Li Yi choked with tears.

"Mojia Village is so poor that any family member who can survive is unwilling to let their daughter come to Mojia Village to suffer." Fauber sighed.

Merton was silent, and there was an energy rising in his heart, these villagers were the soldiers who followed his father in the four directions, they were all his father's brothers, and many of the teenagers were brothers who grew up with him and played together.

Now that these people are living in dire straits, Merton feels the need to change the status quo in Mojia Village.

He wants to let the villagers of Mojia Village live a happy life, and he wants Mojia Village to become a rich village in the world, which can not help but be the remnant of this body, and it is his responsibility as a current person.

Thinking of this, Merton was suddenly full of passion, and strode to the top of a large stone pier.

"Uncles and uncles, brothers, you have suffered!" Merton bowed and apologized to the villagers.

"The young master can't do it!" The villagers immediately shouted and persuaded them, in their impression, they were all saluting the young master, how could there be a time for the young master to salute them.

"Young master, I can't help it!" Li Yi and Fu Bo also persuaded one after another.

Rao is villagers persuaded again and again, and Merton still got up after three breaths, looking up at the dense villagers in front of him, and when Merton raised his head slightly, all the villagers stopped all their movements and stared at Merton.

"Mojia Village is very poor! Very poor! ”

"Mojia Village is full of disasters and difficulties, and there are disasters and famines every year."

"The men in Mojia Village can't marry their daughters-in-law, and the women in other villages don't want to marry them, for fear of hardship!"

Merton became more and more sad and angry.

With every word he spoke, the heads of the villagers of Mojia Village were lowered by one point. This is the pain of Mojia Village, many people are full of pain and tears, but no one cries.

"But none of these can defeat us Mojia villagers, all the elders were once good men who followed their ancestors all their lives, and the other brothers are also good brothers who grew up with us.

Merton paused, looked at the villagers' gradually raised heads, and said in a loud voice: "Today, I, Merton, stand here and promise you that from now on, Mojia Village will no longer starve and freeze. Every brother in the village can marry a daughter-in-law, and I want to make Mojia Village the richest village in the entire Tang Dynasty. ”

If you don't starve or freeze, you can marry a daughter-in-law and become the richest village in the Tang Dynasty?

Is this possible? They are now one of the poorest villages.

Looking at the villagers' incredulous expressions, Merton's heart ached, he knew that these things were things they had never dared to think about.

He didn't expect the villagers to believe him right now, because it all had to be told by the facts.

Merton looked at everyone and said solemnly: "I know that this road is very long and difficult, but I will work side by side with all my uncles, uncles, brothers and sisters, I promise that as long as there is a bite of food in Mofu, you will not be starved, not only to survive the most difficult period in Mojia Village, but also to live better than others." ”

"The young master's benevolent and righteous old man is to give up this old bone and fight with the young master!." Li Yi suddenly said loudly, now that Mojia Village is at a critical juncture, the young master can awaken in time to lead everyone through the difficulties, and that is the old lord's heroic spirit manifestation.

"The general is loyal and martyrful, the young master is benevolent and righteous, and my old fish will also follow the young master." Master Yu said heavily.

"My old fortune also follows the young master!" Fauber also stood up.

"Let's fight, let's do it with the young master."

"Fight! No matter how poor you are, how poor can you be? ”

"That is, maybe it can fight for another world."

More and more people began to respond, and Merton couldn't help but nod secretly when he saw that the eyes of these people were no longer confused and painful, but instead of hope.

Merton stretched out his hand, and everyone fell silent, staring at him.

"Now I'm going to issue a mission, Fauber! Immediately count the grain stocks in the house, and let some villagers who can't open the pot be relieved first. Merton instructed Fauber.

"Yes, the old slave obeys!" Fauber replied.

Merton looked at Li Yi again: "Uncle Li, you now immediately organize people to immediately repair all the roads in the village, and some villagers' houses are very damaged, immediately organize people to repair them, some villagers' houses are no longer inhabitable, so they will be placed in the house, and the specific wages, after you distribute them, let them go to Fubo to collect them, and it is okay to ask for money, or to ask for food." ”

"Young Master is benevolent! The road and house are all done by us, how can we let the young master pay for it again? Everyone said yes! Li Yi shouted at the villagers.

"That is, how can we make the young master pay for our own work?"

"Young master, most of our families still have food in stock, which can last for some time."

“…………

The villagers were very simple and said one after another.

"Then write down the account first, and in the future, when Mojia Village is rich, you can compensate everyone again, and if you need it, you can withdraw it immediately." Merton said.

Coming from later generations, he knows that the passion of the big pot of rice does not last long, and the continuous income is the driving force for people's struggle.

Li Yi thought about it, this is indeed a solution, after all, some families do have difficulties.

"Young Master is wise!" Li Yixin was convinced, originally he thought that Moton was a whim, but now it seems that Mojia Village may really be able to succeed under the leadership of Merton.

Thinking of this, Li Yi's enthusiasm became even greater and shouted: "Those from the east come here, follow Lao Wang to repair the road, and those from the west follow me to repair the house." ”

"Howler!"

The villagers immediately responded.

Never doubted Merton's ability to lead them to prosperity, but they never imagined what a glorious path they were about to embark on.
