Luo Yunxiao thought for a moment, and asked the local tyrants quite seriously: "Then I'll ask you a question first." What would you think if one of these women was to be sold as cattle by your daughters, your sisters, or even your main house and concubines? ”

After listening to Luo Yunxiao's words, those local tyrants suddenly lost their voices, and they were all speechless like deflated balls, with nothing to say.

Luo Yunxiao seemed to use a slap to give a candy to eat: "However, don't be in a hurry to get out of here." Wait a little while, and I'll help you get the gold back. ”

Several local tyrants were suddenly shocked, and asked in surprise: "Really? Is this true? We heard you right, right? ”

Luo Yunxiao didn't pay attention to their questions, and continued: "The gold will definitely be able to be asked for back. But you must be punished for this kind of aiding and abusive behavior. So be it! After the gold is brought, everyone will have to deduct a fine of 10 percent, which is considered a punishment for you, and it is also used as a subsidy for the people of Lingnan County, do any of you want to? ”

The local tyrants immediately nodded like garlic and said, "Yes, yes, we're all willing." ”

Luo Yunxiao said: "Then let's say it." Let's get in quickly, otherwise there will be more and more deals. With that, he led a group of men and rushed towards the center of the courtyard.

Along the way, 5 or 6 local tyrants and more than 20 women were intercepted, and the girls were all 500 elite soldiers led by Xu Jiayun to find a few empty rooms to settle them. Luo Yunxiao was first hard and then soft with those local tyrants, and then reasoned with reason, and moved with affection, which finally stabilized their minds.

Eventually, we came to the place where the transaction was placed. Human trafficking is in full swing here, and it's a lot of fun. More than 100 of the 200 beauties in the first batch have been sold, and the transaction amount has reached 100,000 taels of gold, and the amount is still rising.

Suddenly, thousands of fierce and vicious people appeared, and immediately frightened everyone present, and they fled and avoided in all directions, and the field became chaotic.

That Zhang Zhongliang is also an official after all, and he still has some guts. He came to Luo Yunxiao and the others, and said with a sneer: "This official really underestimated you." Who are you sacred? Why do you want to come here to embarrass the official? ”

Luo Yunxiao said coldly: "It's not that Luo wants to embarrass you. It's all your own fault. As an official of the imperial court, is it your way of being an official to sell the women stolen by the bandits? What's even more terrifying is that you are in a nest with bandits, snakes and rats, and you are in cahoots, which is simply hateful to the extreme. Just ask! Do you still have to be complicit in this kind of behavior? ”

Zhang Zhongliang did not show weakness, but still said eloquently: "A county with a population of more than 100,000 people needs silver everywhere, do you think you can move your mouth?" It's as simple as you think. This official earns some silver taels, not for his own sake, but for the people of a county to make a living, and to seek welfare for them! Is it easy for this official to do this? ”

If Luo Yunxiao didn't understand the situation, he might be moved by his words, and tears flowed on the spot. But the facts are very different from what he said, poor families in this county can be seen everywhere, and it can be said that they are poor in ten rooms.

Luo Yunxiao secretly sent Ye Yunjing and Xu Jiayun to visit dozens of households in the county, and more than 95% of them couldn't open the pot at the moment.

There are more than 60,000 people in Lingnan County, Zhang Zhongliang does not care whether you are an adult or a child, a man or a woman, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, he insists on collecting taxes according to capitation, and stipulates that each person must pay 5 taels of silver every year; In addition, there are 890,000 people in the vast villages outside the city, and each person has to pay 3 taels of silver a year. Some people have a family of 5 or 6 people, and they can only earn 12 or 3 taels of silver in a year, which is not enough to pay taxes and silver. For this reason, many families can only wander and be displaced for many years.

Therefore, Zhang Ziliang, who said here that he is dedicated to the people and cares about the people, said all the lies and could not withstand the slightest scrutiny.

I heard Luo Yunxiao righteously refuting him: "What you said is nonsense. Trick some people, this trick may be okay. But Luo will not be easily fooled by you. You say that you earn money for the people of your county, so what do you do by collecting such a high tax per capita every year? The imperial court stipulates that the tax profit of each household is 3 taels of silver for 1 year, and you are good, but there are 5 taels per person in the city and 3 taels per person outside the city. He also kept saying that for the livelihood of the people and for the welfare of the toiling masses, he would really put gold on his face! ”

Zhang Zhongliang knew that he had encountered a hard stubble today, and the other party knew the affairs of the court well, and he knew it so clearly, it can be seen that his identity was unusual. Now he wants to think of a way to round this matter, the only possibility is that he must give up the child in order to trap the wolf!

So he changed his face and said, "This friend." The official can't confirm your identity and origin at the moment, so let's call you a friend for the time being! Friend, we might as well be like this, when this transaction is over, the official will take out 150,000 taels of gold and give it to you, so you don't have to worry about this matter anymore, do you think it will be successful? ”

Bribe, this is Chiguoguo's bribe! If Luo Yunxiao was an ordinary person, I am afraid that he would have been bombarded into a white rabbit toffee by the other party's sugar-coated cannonball at this time. 150,000 taels of gold is equivalent to 1,500,000 taels of silver! It is estimated that there are few people in this world who can resist it.

But in Luo Yunxiao's eyes, these gold are nothing at all. At present, the Duxiu Mountain Group Army controls the vast area of Jiaozhou County and Jiangzhou County, and has more than 2.2 million mu of good land, of which 800,000 mu are planted with Youxiang No. 8 rice seed that he brought from the future time and space, and 1.4 million mu of land is planted with Xingguang No. 3 rice seed with a single-season yield of 1,200 catties per mu developed by Xu Zifang and others, and the annual grain output alone has reached more than 50 million stones. In addition, there are more than 100 Yunxiao restaurants and 2 soap factories. All these industries can obtain a net profit of 80 million taels of silver in a year. He was already indifferent to gold and silver.

So he is also indifferent to the other party's bribes, and there is also the fact that whether the silver is more or less is secondary, it is mainly the bottom line of being a person. Luo Yunxiao has always had a strong sense of modern human nature, and he has always hated and hated this extremely hateful behavior, how could he go along with that Zhang Ziliang? This is simply an insult to his personality and habits.

He categorically rejected the temptation of Zhang Ziliang's money, and said coldly: "You use this mere 150,000 taels of gold to buy this official?" Hey! You're underestimating your own officials. With that, he took the decree out of his bosom and unfolded it.

Originally, he and Zhang Ziliang were standing face to face, relatively close; And the words on the holy decree are also very large, and Zhang Ziliang naturally sees it very clearly. He was suddenly stupefied by the young man in front of him.

Zhang Ziliang originally estimated Luo Yunxiao's identity, but seeing that he was so young, he should be a 7 or 8 grade petty official sent by the supervision department. That's why he blatantly bribed him, thinking about 150,000 taels of gold, enough for this young official to live comfortably for several lifetimes. Unexpectedly, the other party was actually a high-grade imperial court official, the governor of 21 states and counties, which is too scary!

Zhang Ziliang suddenly knelt down with a "poof", and begged bitterly: "Lord Shangcha, spare your life!" The lower officials were also confused for a while, and they became greedy. Please also read that there are old and young under the officials, so let go of the lower officials! ”

Luo Yunxiao smiled coldly and said: "Your evil deeds are too numerous to be written, it has reached an unforgivable level, no one can save your life, just wait for your death to come!" ”

Zhang Ziliang was trembling there, forgetting what he was going to say next. It was at this time that a voice suddenly came out: "I don't think so." Whether Zhang County's order is dead or alive, it is not who says that he can do it, he can do it, it depends on whether Lao Tzu agrees or not. ”

Luo Yunxiao looked back and saw a group of people walking not far behind him, and the person at the head said as he walked. Luo Yunxiao recognized this person at a glance, he was the bandit leader who robbed himself outside the county seat before, and it should be Long Xiaokun, the big boss of Qitian Hongmen.

The Long Xiaokun walked to Luo Yunxiao's side and said very arrogantly: "No matter who sent you, no matter how big your official position is, in the land of Lingnan County, I, Long Xiaokun, am the Heavenly King Laozi, and it is useless for anyone to come." Hum! Before Lao Tzu loses his temper, you can get as far as you can! Otherwise, Lao Tzu will go on a killing spree. ”

After all, he himself has a first-class 6-star strength, although he does not have the ability to check the strength of others, but he thinks that there is no one in the territory of Lingnan County who can control him, and the result is the same whether he checks it or not. However, he completely forgot the phrase, saying that there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people. With his current ability alone, any leader in Duxiu Mountain can destroy him 808 times without change.

However, Luo Yunxiao has not yet spoken, and the people under him will not make any moves, and they regard Luo Yunxiao's instructions as if they were holy decrees.

Luo Yunxiao just smiled indifferently and said eloquently: "Your top 10 gangs in Guangzhou County, if I remember correctly, your Qi Tianhongmen should be ranked 6th, right?" If you directly compare it with the first-ranked Tianyoumen, it is obviously embarrassing for you; How about the No. 2 Amazing Mountain Villa? I think you must be willing to bow down with your strength. In fact, what I want to tell you is that yes, these two gangs are all defeated by our Duxiu Mountain. ”
