Chapter 102 Breaking the Game
There are five farms in two days, which belong to the Ni family, the Zhou family and another small family named the Sun family. More than 80 people were wounded, more than 50 were scattered and missing, and dozens of tenants fled one after another.
The property loss was more than 100 taels of silver, more than 40,000 copper coins, and other property equivalent to more than 400 taels. In addition, 3,100 stone of grain, 116 pigs and sheep, more than 600 chickens and ducks, 21 cattle, 14 donkeys and mules, and 2 horses were lost. In addition, it is difficult to count the burned houses, damaged utensils, wells, etc., for a while.
The sudden sneak attack caught the small family alliance led by the Zhou family off guard. However, after being stunned, they suddenly became furious, and several families gathered more than 800 people together, killed Xiaohongling, and vowed to uproot Qin Bai's men and horses......
……
Looking at the bonfire outside the village, Qin Bai turned around and asked Dong Chuan with a smile: "How are the matches?" It didn't affect the yield, did it? ”
Dong Chuan hurriedly said: "Today, there are more than twenty boxes a day, and there are already more than a hundred boxes in the warehouse. If you follow your instructions and divide into three shifts and do it in the evening, the output may be doubled. It's just ......, Second Master Bai, is it really okay outside? ”
"Cut!" Qin Bai sneered, "We don't lack manpower, firewood and grain, do you come in with a bunch of miscellaneous people?" Let's just consume it, and see who can consume whom? Eh, have you paid all the money? ”
"It's all gone."
"And what is the morale of the brethren?"
"Not bad. Seeing that there was a crowd outside, they didn't dare to fight at all, and their hearts were settled. ”
"That's good. Tell me to go down, and let the people on duty in each shift be vigilant, so that no one can touch the city wall. As long as there is this stockade, we will not be afraid of spending a year! ”
"Huh!"
With the arrival of follow-up people, there are now more than 1,000 people outside the Xiaohongling Village. However, in the face of the towering city walls, the besiegers were all dumbfounded. If it is attacked, it will not be able to afford so many casualties. And so there was such a ridiculous stalemate, not even a tentative siege. At most, the two sides sent people to scold each other every day, and the verbal fight was quite fierce.
As the saying goes, there is food in the hand, and there is no panic in the heart. Now the grain and grass stored in the village are enough to support more than a year, so I am not afraid of such a funny marshmallow siege at all. Especially Qin Bai didn't care about other losses at all, like the two squares in Jingjiazhuang, as well as the mines in Shanglin Village, he could give up. As long as the production of match workshops can be guaranteed, they will not lack financial resources in the future.
Dong Chuan led the people to arrange it in a hurry, leaving only Li Kang and a few henchmen around him. However, at this time, Li Dang and the others finally expressed their worries: "Second Brother Bai, although we won't be afraid, how should this matter end?" ”
Now the situation is getting bigger and bigger. To be honest, there wasn't much oil and water in those farms, and the key was that it disgusted and angered the small family alliance. As a result, the two sides have become more and more like a situation of never dying.
Qin Bai smiled slightly. He had long found out that Li Kang and the others had too little experience, and he didn't even have a more effective helper by his side. Therefore, I have been taking the initiative to teach them by word and deed, hoping to help them grow rapidly.
"Dare, let me ask you, when we come to this Jingjiazhuang, we are destined to live a stable life. One is to swallow your anger and get by, but are you willing to live such a day? Or are the brethren willing? Also, even if we swallow our anger, we may not be able to pass the big dog tooth at that time; Another option is to break the game. We didn't think about bullying people, but we also wanted others to never dare to bully us. In fact, there is only one thing we want - let us make matches safely and steadily, make money safely, and everyone else should not be so full to provoke us! ”
"But people often make cheap mistakes, and they will remember the lesson when they suffer from pain! Could it be that in the future, when our matches are red, they will come to look for trouble if they have something to do, and come over to fight the autumn breeze if they have nothing to do? If we can't help it, isn't it all day and night? Even if you don't fight, you have to be prepared every day, which day is the end? It's not as good as it is now, the long pain is not as good as the short pain, and it will completely hurt them at one time. ”
"No wonder!" Li Dang suddenly realized, "You arrange the big jackals and Master Wu outside." Second Brother Bai, will you notify them to do it now? ”
"Don't worry, wait a few more days, and let more people come. There is only one chance, and it is necessary to turn Jingjiazhuang upside down. I believe that after this time, they should talk to us. Qin Bai smiled.
In addition to the people in the stockade, Qin Bai ambushed another strange soldier outside. More than a hundred people led by Cao Dacai and Wu Lisong, when the people of the small family alliance were all attracted over, they would go to Jingjiazhuang to sweep. Relying on these people, it may not be enough to plant a flag, but it is more than enough to wreak havoc.
Qin Bai wanted to form this situation of mutual harm. For him, even if he didn't have two workshops and mines, he wouldn't even be able to break his muscles. But for those small families, how much loss can they endure? There will always be a limit, and in the end you will have to choose the negotiating table.
……
At this time, the main tent on the opposite side was extremely noisy, and around the main thing this time, Zhou Lipeng of the Zhou family, the main affairs of each family were arguing.
"Master Wednesday, you have a good word, how long will we be around? It's not a matter if this day goes on, right? ”
"Hey, it's not been a few days, aren't your Li family impatient?"
"What's the matter, if you Shen family have the ability, go and fight? If you have the ability, you will be a pioneer tomorrow, and our Li family will give you a pressure! Don't worry, I promise to collect your body! ”
"Eh, it's all about the fire, the fire. But Lord Wednesday, you should get a charter. How long are you going to play? How should we divide the extra military spending? This should be explained, right? ”
"That's it! After we occupy Shanglin Village, we not only have to divide people to protect the people who built the mine in Hefu, but also provide mining blacks? Can't cut off the ore supply of Hefu? What kind of do you think this is? Are we here to fight Bai Er? Or are you here to help Bai Erbai work? ”
"So what do you say you should do? Bai Er's bastard is a turtle, he doesn't come out of the village, how can we fight? ”
"I'm going to ask you about this. Which bastard said at that time, there are so many of us, Bai Er was scared when he saw it? Now I don't know if Bai Erqi is peeing or not, but I know that he didn't come out to fight, and he didn't run away in fright. Just watch our jokes every day. In addition to the other things, the brothers have to eat their daily wine and meat, and the younger ones must also have their stomachs full. There should be an end to the daily consumption of food and grass, right? ”
