Chapter 858. Scammed
The talent of watching the excitement is really innate to human beings, and when a living person is kicked all at once, all of a sudden the nearby builders carrying wood, the masons who make cement, the merchants who deliver goods on Dongjiang tricycles, or the idle citizens all surround them.
In front of everyone's eyes, Luo Jin, who had been kicked in the ass, held the ground with his left hand with great difficulty, and then lifted his upper body with great difficulty, and when he turned around, he roared in annoyance.
"Dog minion, dare to do something to this son! This son is going to abolish you!"
But after shouting vigorously, Luo Zhen was short of breath and coughed violently.
Listening to his roar, the fat old man who came out of the door wearing a melon skin hat and a green ingot robe snorted with a sneer on his face.
"Childe?"
"You have been expelled from the house by the head of the Luo family!"
"This son is a man in the long house, and the woman in Luo Yu is just a wild girl from the side house, why should she expel me! Dog minion, don't hurry up and help this son up!"
was still talking about his identity, and the shopkeeper of the Naluo family snorted with disdain.
"Why?"
"You thief and prodigal son almost ruined the Luo family by forcing the eldest lady, and you paid such a big price for you, you actually betrayed the eldest lady! Let that eldest lady who grew up watching you grow up stained with blood! You are a wolf-hearted and dog-lunged person, and you also have the face to call yourself the Luo family's room? Leave the eldest lady, you're not a fart!"
Pointing at his nose, the old man in charge of the Luo family scolded unceremoniously: "Get out!" Don't defile the lintel of the Luo family here!"
This sentence again, and it pierced Luo Jin's heart like a needle, and suddenly, he got up like a madman again, and slammed into it without a head or face, even the old shopkeeper of the Luo family didn't react to this scene, seeing him crash into the Luo family's store, he was stunned for a moment, and the old shopkeeper roared angrily: "Fork out!"
A few guys followed the roar of their shopkeeper, impatiently surrounded him, grabbed Luo Jin's shoulder, and threw him out again, this time it was not as simple as kicking just now, a group of people carried sticks up to punch and kick, everyone watched, and the son of the Luo family who beat him wailed again and again, and it was completely a Sven sweep.
After being beaten for a few minutes, the old shopkeeper still couldn't understand Luo Jin's collar and came fiercely: "Don't dangle in front of the Luo family anymore, dare to use the name of the Luo family to deceive again, and arrest you to see the official!" Get out of here!"
was slammed down, the pain on his body was about to fall apart, and he no longer had the courage to break through, his right hand was in his arms, the corners of Luo Jin's mouth were bleeding and saliva, and he looked back step by step, and finally disappeared into the street in a large group of people who watched the lively discussion.
…………
On the edge of a construction site under construction, Luo Zhen sat on the ground tiredly, the silk scholarly robe on his body had already been tattered, blood and dirty water were everywhere, and there were injuries on his body, and black pus was flowing out of his right hand in his arms, but these are not the most important things!
The stomach is empty, and the intestines are very faceless, Ying Tiancheng fell too suddenly, he came out to drink flower wine that night, and he didn't bring much property at all, these days the jade pendants on his body, the embroidered money bags, seals and other things have all been taken to exchange for money, and now he is penniless, Luo Zhen also knows what he has done, and Mao Jue's hatred for him, but it turns out that the ambition of the eldest son of the Luo family is worth so much, under hunger, he still can't help but take risks and break into the Luo family's shop, even if it is exposed to Mao Jue's eyes, I also want to get something to eat.
However, as the old shopkeeper of the Luo family said, after leaving the eldest lady, he is not a fart!
Now he is really desperate, sitting on the steps sluggishly, I don't know if Luo Zhen feels regret now, but when he was in a daze, not far away, a fat landlord who was sweating profusely and turning his head from side to side didn't know what he was anxiously thinking.
"Where did the poor ghost come from, don't you fucking look at the Tao?"
Holding on to the wall, the fat landlord stood up with grinning teeth, and opened his mouth to scold without a head or face. People are poor and short-minded, and they have fallen to this point, Luo Zhen has lost the arrogance he had at the beginning, and he didn't scold back with his head drooping, who knew that the fat land advocated scolding and scolding, and suddenly his eyes lit up again.
"Are you, the former head of the household?"
"Your Excellency?"
I never thought that at this time, there would be someone who remembered his official position, Luo Zhen couldn't help but tremble excitedly, raised his head suddenly, and a treacherous look disappeared in the eyes of the little landlord, he looked enthusiastic, and hugged his fist heavily.
"In Xia Wufu, the protégé of Zhao Qingzhi, the head of the household, has seen Lord Luo with his family teacher before!"
"I'm going to a street restaurant, if Lord Luo doesn't dislike it, how about a drink or two in your face?"
If in the past, the protégé of a protégé like him, a little person among the little people, let alone inviting him to dinner, it is not uncommon for Luo Zhen to talk to him, but at this time, he can still remember his official position, call him an adult, and invite him to drink, Luo Zhen is simply grateful, and hurriedly nodded his head.
"Thank you, thank you!"
"Lord Luo, please!"
…………
In the past few days, Luo Zhen felt warm again for the first time, this Wu Fu not only invited him to report for a meal at noon, but also invited him to his home in the afternoon.
"This, you want to give it to me?"
A large stack of deed was placed in front of him, Luo Zhen was like falling into a dream, shouting incredibly, he shouted in shock, but Wu Fu listened to it with a pair of eyes that narrowed into a slit with a smile, and nodded incessantly.
"Of course! Of course! What is the identity of Lord Luo? Hangzhou Baume & Mercier, or our Donglin series! How can you have no land in your name? Isn't this shabby our Donglin people? This sentence is allowed to Tianchuan, 800 acres of land with the nearby house, Wu will give it to adults! Adults must not postpone it, to be responsible is to look down on Wu!"
This kind invitation, Luo Jin's tears were about to fall, and he choked in his throat for a long time, and he bowed with difficulty.
"In this way, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate!"
This is really not a joke, Wu Fu said to give, he didn't even eat dinner, and in the evening he drove the carriage to the Land Bureau of Jurong County overnight, went through the land transfer procedures, and put Luo Jin's name on the red deed, he breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed again and again, and sent Luo Zhen to the house he promised, and then left.
At night, the entire manor was overcast, and there was not even a single light, but at this time, immersed in the excitement of becoming a landlord again, Luo Zhen didn't notice the strangeness here.
"Hah! Whoever said that this son left that mother-in-law and slut is nothing! Ben Gongzi's own reputation is a thousand acres of land in a blink of an eye! Come on, your lord is back!"
The pain on his body seemed to be much lighter, shouting, he pushed away the most luxurious compound in the center of the manor with his left hand, but to his embarrassment, the courtyard was also empty, not even a dog barked, looked left and right, full of helplessness, he himself touched into the village.
…………
I haven't slept so sweetly for a long time, and the deed of eight hundred acres of high-quality watered land is in my arms, although it is impossible to be as majestic as a high-ranking official before, but relying on these, I can still live the parasite life of the former underwear to reach out for food and open my mouth, and sleep Luo Zhen is smiling, if it is not for the early morning of the next day, the earth-shattering sound of slamming the door.
"Who?"
Rubbing his eyes and yawning, Luo Zhen limped open the door, but immediately, he gasped and staggered, and at the gate, there were more than 20 officials standing like wolves!
Didn't he show up in Luo's shop yesterday, which attracted Mao Jue to send someone to get people? In an instant, Luo Jin's forehead was sweating like rain, and the only remaining leg was a little weak, and he hurriedly lowered his head.
"You, who are you looking for?"
"Luo Jin, the owner of the small farm, are you right?"
"Return, go back to a few officials, if you don't have the surname Luo, you are looking for the wrong one, right?"
Now that he is in the bag, he doesn't even dare to mention this Luo word, while answering, Luo Zhen is still secretly shrinking back in small steps, wanting to run away at any time, but who knows that the official took out a field booklet from his arms.
"How could it not be? The handover that Wu Yuanwai just completed yesterday said that this field was transferred to Luo Yuanwai in Jingkou? ”
As soon as he heard this, Luo Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that Mao Jue didn't send someone to get him, he hurriedly nodded again and again: "I just fell asleep and was dazed, and it was Luo Zhen below, I don't know what a few grandfathers are doing when they come to the door?" ”
"Didn't you do it, Master Luo, hurry up and settle this year's fine! The county is pressing, and if you can take over such a large piece of land, you are not a person who lacks money, right? ”
"Fines?"
Again, Luo Jin's eyes widened in disbelief, but the tolerance that sounded this was actually confused.
"When you bought the land, didn't Wu Yuanwai tell you? According to the Ming Pioneer Law, this year, 800 acres of land in Xiaotian Village were planted without cutting, according to the law, one acre of land was fined ten taels of silver, and 800 acres was 8,000 taels! According to the law, this money must be paid by November, when will you settle the money? ”
Luo Zhen has been in the city these days, how did he know that the fertile soil in the south of the Yangtze River, which was originally every inch of land, has become a hot potato at this time! Because the peasants have lost a lot of money under the new law, the land has become worthless due to the sharp rise in land operating costs, and it is even more hesitant to suddenly make labor extremely expensive, and many landlords cannot organize manpower to harvest in the autumn at all, and the grain rots into the fields, which is to be fined! These 800 acres, now the land price is probably less than 1,600 taels, but the fine is as high as 8,000 taels, Wu Fu is not worried!
At this time, he knew that he had fallen for Wu Fu's trick, and he was dumbfounded, and Luo Zhen pushed the door with a bang, and shouted: "This son has no silver!" If you want money, go find Wu Fu's guy!"
Bang dang~
didn't wait for him to bolt the door like that, but the door was kicked open suddenly, and now it was not as pleasant as it was just now, his eyes narrowed dangerously, and he looked at the overwhelmed Luo Dagongzi gloomily, and asked gloomily.
"In this way, Luo Yuanwai is going to resist punishment!"
…………
Bang, in the past, the prison where Luo Zhen shouted at every turn to take people to prison was open to him this time, both hands were shackled, he was kicked in violently, his mood was extremely depressed, knocking on the prison door, Lord Luo roared sadly.
"Let me out!!"
It's a pity that no one paid attention to him!
