Chapter 506: The Next Trick
Qi Chengfeng was puzzled, thinking about it, and he didn't know how these grains came from.
After all, their kitchen usually stores things that can be eaten for a day or two, and the food in the cellar is only taken every other day, and only a batch was brought out yesterday morning, and I haven't gone in to get anything this morning, so I didn't find anything unusual.
After speculating, it can only be said that other people brought food to put it yesterday, but ...... No one else came in yesterday. Qi Chengfeng suddenly had a flash of inspiration, a robber came into the yard yesterday!
However, the robbers did not touch the contents of their house, and it was impossible for them to put the food in!
Qi Chengfeng was thinking about it, and heard the villagers talking above, "Their family is really hammered now?" I didn't admit it before, but now I'm silent, and I guess I'm thinking about countermeasures! ”
"Don't laugh at him, we have to get this grain back! We must ask him to compensate us for our silver! ”
“……”
Everyone was talking, and a hint of pride flashed in the village chief's eyes, and he spat at the mouth of the cellar, and said, "Young Master Qi, are you convinced?" Apologize! By the way, the silver that will be compensated to us will be compensated to us! ”
"You're beautiful!" Qi Chengfeng looked at these grains that were not their family, and said, "These grains are only five or six bags, tell me, the whole village has a total of six bags of grain?" And these are still unhulled millet! If you want to be falsely accused, you have to find other food! ”
The villagers all made a "tsk" sound, feeling that Qi Chengfeng was just struggling.
The village chief shouted, "Come on, bring the stone lid and cover it!" I'm not afraid that he won't give him money! ”
Several villagers obediently lifted the stone lid and covered it with a "snap".
In the cellar, Qi Chengfeng heard the sound of hollow echoes, and the candle in his hand suddenly became as thin as a rope, and it was almost extinguished.
Now, the villagers have closed the manhole cover!
There was already little air in the cellar, and they didn't do this to let him die? Or rather, to threaten him with silver!
They can do anything to achieve their goals!
"Crunch-" The voice suddenly sounded from the top of his head, Qi Chengfeng looked up, and saw a corner of the lid exposed, and sunlight entered, and then, the sunlight disappeared, and he saw the village chief's dark chin and stubble, and the village chief said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Qi Gongzi, you are a smart person, and if you don't give money now, you are taking your life as a child's play!" ”
Listening to the village chief's voice, Qi Chengfeng felt a little proud, and then thought about yesterday's events, and said in a deep voice: "You designed this matter with Zhang Xiucai?" He used the name of her lady to like Mo Shanggongzi to invite those public games to attract the whole village to listen, but how could almost all of them pass? And you told the villagers to listen and watch, and hired those bandits to rob them, right? ”
"Y-You!" A trace of panic flashed in the village chief's eyes, this matter was indeed done by him, he did ask the bandits to do this, and made a contract with the bandits, so that the bandits took advantage of Qi Chengfeng and the others to go to see Mo Shanggongzi at the same time, let the bandits take the opportunity to enter Qi's house and take a few bags of grain to come in and frame Qi Chengfeng! However, he didn't tell the villagers about it!
After all, he made an agreement with the bandits that they would give him one-fifth of the goods after they got them!
Those things are all the villagers' things, how dare he let the villagers know! Fine sweat broke out on the village chief's forehead, and he said to Chengfeng: "You, you are talking nonsense!" It's clear that you did it, and you framed me! You found the bandits, right? ”
"Ridiculous!" Qi Chengfeng shook his head, a slight contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "If it weren't for you, why would you be so flustered?" If it weren't for you, why would you bring the villagers to attack my house? ”
With a "snap", the village chief ordered someone to push the lid again, and through the stone, Qi Chengfeng heard the village chief and others muttering: "Everyone, if he doesn't give silver, we will consume him!" ”
The thought of the thin air here, Qi Chengfeng felt bad, the villagers covered the exit, if he breathed slowly, he could hold on for two hours at most!
The village chief waited for a long time, but he never saw Qi Chengfeng stop, but the guards came over and shouted, "Where has our master gone?" ”
"He's ......" A villager wanted to speak, but the village chief glared at him, and the villager was immediately silenced, and the village chief slowly said to the guard: "Your master is now staying under the cellar!" He said he would give us five hundred taels of silver as compensation. Go and bring the money with your wife. ”
"You ......" The guard was very observant, and when he saw that the entrance of the cellar was closed, and there was still a group of strong villagers standing here, he guessed something, and immediately nodded and left to inform Su Wanwan.
Su Wanwan was furious, and almost had another tire, "What! You say they're going to do it to me! And...... And to threaten his life for money? ”
The guard nodded and said, "It looks like so." ”
“……”
These people are really vicious! Thinking that Qi Chengfeng was still in the cellar now, Su Wanwan was very distressed, now giving silver is the safest way, at least saving Qi Chengfeng's life!
But after giving the money, their family was convicted of this crime, and they had no face to get along with the villagers in the future!
Su Wanwan's face was very heavy, and she said, "I'll meet them!" ”
"No!" The maid immediately stopped Su Wanwan, who was about to get out of bed, and said, "Madam, those people are very thick-skinned, you are very easily provoked, so it is not good for the little young master, you better not go out?" ”
"If I don't go out, what should I do?" Su Wanwan walked out, afraid that her body would catch a cold, so she put on a thin cloak and went out.
When the villagers saw Su Wanwan, they all said, "Where is the silver?" ”
"You're so anxious?" Su Wanwan sneered and said, "Five hundred taels of silver is not unaffordable, you open the corner of the lid first, besides, it is not convenient for me to give five hundred taels for you to share, give you the copper plate!" ”
Saying that, Su Wanwan commanded her subordinates to go to a certain room and brought two large boxes of copper plates, the villagers were very excited, thinking that it was enough, but when one person touched it, he found a big stone, and the village chief immediately said: "We have to count enough silver before leaving!" ”
"Done!" Su Wanwan nodded, and the next person brought a stool over, and Su Wanwan sat and looked at them.
The villagers counted enough silver and were about to leave, Su Su Wanwan said coldly: "What? Want to leave? My friend is already waiting for you! ”
"Friends?" The village chief suddenly felt that something was wrong, and suddenly found that a bunch of catchers had appeared at the gate of the Qi family's courtyard!
