Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

The Dong Xun army that entered Pingzhen was led by a military marquis. Escorted by several soldiers, he walked down the street, raised his head and said, "Don't be afraid, as long as each of you hands over five buckets of grain, you will be safe." ”

Ten buckets are a hu, and a hue is a stone.

Under normal circumstances, a stone of grain is about 200 yuan, but now Nanyang is in chaos, and the price of grain has been high, and a stone of grain has to cost at least 600 yuan, and a better grain costs thousands of yuan. Now Dong Xunjun wants the people of Pingzhen to give five buckets of grain each, which is equivalent to asking each person to pay three hundred yuan. It doesn't seem like much, but you must know that the income of middle-class families at that time was more than 10,000 yuan a year, and the average monthly income was

It's almost a thousand yuan, and the income of the people at the bottom is less, and for people, three hundred yuan is not a small amount.

Hearing that the military marquis said that he would hand over five buckets of grain by himself, the faces of the people present were more ugly than one another.

One of them, a young man with an impulsive temperament, asked loudly, "Why does the military master want me to hand over five buckets of grain?" We, the people of Pingzhen, pay taxes every year! ”

The marquis turned his head to look at the young man who spoke, spread his hands and asked, "Where are the taxes you paid?" ”

"It has long been handed over to the government ......"

"So, your taxes haven't been paid to us!"

The military marquis pursed his lips and said in a loud voice: "General Dong led us and other soldiers to help you fight the Luoyang Army desperately, and now there is a shortage of money and food in the army, so why is it wrong for you to donate some money and food?" The young man was speechless for a moment, bowed his head, and did not speak again. The military marquis laughed twice, looked around at the people around, and said loudly: "I repeat, as long as each of you is willing to hand over five buckets of grain, my army brothers, Keqiu will not commit any crimes, if you are unwilling."

handed over the food, and refused to pay the money to top, just thinking about sitting back and enjoying the success, hehe, then don't blame our army brothers for not being emotional! As he spoke, he deliberately patted the saber under his ribs, making a snapping sound.

After glancing around again, the military marquis waved his hand, and the soldiers present dispersed and collected money and food from the people present. Some timid people, thinking that they were unlucky, could not get so much food, so they paid the money.

Every person who paid the money and grain was given a small wooden sign as a voucher.

Some poor people really want money and no money, and they want food but no food, and when they see that the situation is not good, they turn around and run.

But the street has long been blocked by Dong Xunjun, where can I run away? The people had not gone far before they were stopped by hordes of soldiers, who punched and kicked them.

Other soldiers arrested other civilians in the town and placed them in the streets to be guarded.

Soon, some soldiers came to the inn where Liu Xiu and the others were. One of the captains of the army at the head shouted loudly: "If you have food at home, each person will pay five buckets, and if you have no food at home, you will pay three hundred yuan per person!" ”

Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Xiao frowned secretly, and turned their heads to look at Liu Xiu. The four of them have to pay 1,200 yuan, which is of course nothing to them, but they just feel too cowardly and unwilling.

Liu Xiu smiled indifferently at them, signaling that the three of them didn't care, there was no need to cause trouble here. Comprehending Liu Xiu's meaning, Long Xiao unwillingly and reluctantly took out the money bag and slapped it directly on the table, making a muffled sound.

Seeing this, the captain of the army walked over, glanced at Liu Xiu and the others, and then his eyes fell on the bulging money bag, the corners of his mouth were hooked, and he asked with a smile: "Are you together?" ”

"Yes!" Long Yuan replied expressionlessly.

"Four people, a total of 1,200 yuan!" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and the old god said on the ground, "Pay the money!" ”

Long Xiao glanced at him, opened the money bag, and poured it out, not all of which had been poured out, but more than a dozen turtle coins had already been scattered. He took out four of them, patted them in front of the captain, and asked, "Is it enough?" ”

The soldiers and diners present were all surprised to see that Long Xiao had so much money on his body. The captain of the army was also stunned for a moment before coming back to his senses.

Unexpectedly, this kid had so much money in his money bag.

He picked up the four turtle coins and checked them in his hand, heavy, the silver content must be a lot, this is indeed one of the real platinum three turtle coins.

The captain of the army handed over the four turtle coins to his subordinates on the side, his eyes swept over Liu Xiu and the four of them, and asked, "What are you doing?" Why did you bring so much money with you? ”

Long Yuan raised his eyebrows and was about to speak, when Liu Xiu preemptively said, "We came here from Nanjun to do business!" ”

Nanjun is adjacent to Nanyang, and there are frequent exchanges of merchants between them, in addition, now that Nanjun is controlled by Qin Feng, for Deng Fengjun, the merchants from Nanjun have a certain weight.

Liu Xiu had fought in Nanjun and knew the local accent, and when he spoke, he also deliberately changed to the accent of Nanjun.

"Oh! It turned out to be from Nangun! "The captain of the army was a little disappointed, if the other party came from somewhere else, he could still take the opportunity to make things difficult and get more oil and water, but the other party was a merchant in Nanjun, which was not easy to do.

The captain of the army smiled and asked, "How many brothers are from Nanjun?" ”

"Liqiu!"

"Yo! That's King Chuli's territory, do you know King Chuli? ”

"The military master is really good at laughing, I am waiting for the little people, where can I know the king, I have only seen it once from afar......" Liu Xiu smiled, calmly and with the captain of the army.

As they spoke, several other soldiers walked into the corner and approached the four young men and women. Seeing the girl's appearance clearly, the eyes of several soldiers lit up at the same time, and they said secretly: What a beauty!

One of the soldiers asked solemnly, "Do you pay money or grain?" ”

The older young man arched his hand to several soldiers and said, "I am waiting to come to Nanyang specifically to defect to General Deng, and I also ask my eldest brother to make it convenient......"

Before he finished speaking, the questioning soldier waved his hand and interrupted: "Okay, okay, I don't know how many times I've heard these nonsense in the past few days?" Hurry up, are you paying money or food? ”

The four young men and women frowned in unison, and their faces were not very good-looking. One of the young men took out his money bag and said, "This big brother, we don't have that much money on us. ”

As he spoke, he poured out all the money in the money bag, which included both the five-baht coin of the Western Han Dynasty, the Daquan coin promoted by Wang Mang, and a turtle coin. When all of them are added together, it is not enough for a thousand dollars.

The soldier stretched out his hand and picked up the money on the table, and roughly calculated, it also looked like six or seven hundred dollars. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "That's all there are for you?" ”

The older young man arched his hand and said, "Please make it convenient for this eldest brother!" ”

The soldier almost laughed angrily, looked at the scattered coins on the table, nodded, and said: "A total of six or seven hundred yuan, right, it's okay, even if I have nine hundred yuan, the three of you will pay your share, but what about her share?" ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at the beautiful young girl.

"This big brother ......"

The soldier waved his hand and said first: "It doesn't matter if you can't hand it over, but she, we have to take her!" ”

As he spoke, he shook his head to his two companions to the left and right. The two soldiers walked around the table and approached the girl, making a gesture to pull her.

Before the hands of the two soldiers touched the girl's body, they were waved open by the girl with two snaps. The two soldiers both screamed in pain, raised their hands, and subconsciously took two steps back.

When I looked down, I found that the back of my hand was red and swollen.

"Fuck! Dare to beat Lao Tzu! The two soldiers were furious, and both raised their spears. Seeing this, the three young men who were with the girl stood up in unison, and their hands also held the swords under their ribs.

The captain of the army, who was looking for something to talk to Liu Xiu, heard that the movement here was wrong, turned his head to look over, and saw his own soldiers and four young men and women fighting, his face sank, and he asked, "What's the matter?" ”

A soldier ran quickly, pointed at the four young men and women, and said, "Not only did they refuse to pay the money, but they also beat people!" Both of our brothers were wounded by them! ”

When the captain of the army heard this, his face became more and more gloomy, and he looked at the four young men and women coldly. The slightly older young man Zhengse said: "We really don't have that much money on us, and we ask you big brothers to be accommodating!" ”

"No money? Isn't there someone who has no money? The complainant pointed to the girl and said, "Just leave her behind, and you can go!" With that, he turned to look at the captain and winked at him.

The captain of the army also noticed the girl's appearance, which was indeed as delicate as a flower. He nodded expressionlessly and said, "Since you can't hand over the money and food, then follow the rules and take the people away!" ”

As he spoke, the soldiers of the inn ceased to be polite, and gathered around the four young men and women with their spears. The four young men and women also held the hilt of their swords, ready to draw their swords to resist.

The battle between the two sides was about to break out, and the diners present were so frightened that they dodged backwards, and some simply ran out of the inn. At this moment, Liu Xiu suddenly spoke: "Brother Li! ”

When we talked just now, Liu Xiu already knew that the captain of the army was surnamed Li.

The captain of the army turned around and looked at Liu Xiu in confusion. The latter smiled slightly, took out four more turtle coins from Long Xiao's money bag, and said, "I will help pay their money." ”

As soon as he said this, everyone present was stunned. Liu Xiu said: "It's not easy to go out, in this world, try to help each other if you can!" ”

The four young men and women looked at Liu Xiu in surprise, and they didn't react for a long time. The captain of the army came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Jin Gongzi is generous!" ”

Liu Xiu still uses his usual pseudonym, Jin Wen. Liu Xiu said with a smile: "Be forgiving and forgiving!" It's convenient for others, but it's not convenient for yourself? ”

As he spoke, he approached the captain of the army and whispered: "Those who dare to travel with a sword, not ordinary people, really start fighting, who will suffer is not necessarily!" The captain's eyes flashed, he looked at the four young men and women again, and then deliberately looked at the swords under their ribs, and then withdrew his gaze, pondered in his heart for a moment, and said quietly: "This time you are lucky, I will give Jin Gongzi one."

Face, spare you and wait! After speaking, he picked up the four turtle coins handed over by Liu Xiu, waved to the surrounding soldiers, and withdrew from the inn, and at the same time took out several diners who couldn't pay the money.

After the soldiers left, four young men and women came to Liu Xiu together, bowed their hands one after another, and said, "Thank you for your help!" ”

Liu Xiu smiled lightly and said, "It's just a gesture!" ”

The older young man handed the money bag to Liu Xiu and said, "There are more than 700 yuan in it, even if it is 700 yuan!" Please also ask the son to stay in the residence, another day, I will definitely come to the door to thank you, and by the way, I will return the money owed to the son! Liu Xiu said disappreciably: "I said, it's just a gesture, you don't have to pay attention to it." With that, he turned and walked towards the backyard of the inn.
