The staff member next to the owner of the old village still knows a few words, so he helped Zhang Hanhu, who was illiterate, to sort out the income and expenditure of the cottage's money and food.

"The owner, now the place is not clean, the merchants are almost cut off, our income has plummeted, and the peace money of the clans in various places, we have doubled this year, if it rises again, the families will really not be able to bear it." Then he carefully suggested: "Everything has a degree, if those big families are forced to be anxious, they really meet us with a real chapter, I see-" and then looked at the grass huts outside, and then looked at the old, weak, sick and disabled minions: "Actually, we can't resist." ”

The current situation is that the hemp pole beats the wolf at both ends, and he relies on the prestige of the old village owner here, and holds the shelf, this is a sheep in a tiger skin, once it is pierced, not to mention safe money and food, it is whether it can survive or two words.

"But if it doesn't go up again, what do we do? With so many mouths to eat and drink, you can't just look at it. Then the old village owner knocked on the table painfully: "No, when the spring of the next year is not good, it will starve people to death, a bandit nest starves to death, what kind of end of the world is that." ”

Thinking about the future situation, this staff member is a little chilling, yes, if you don't rob it, you will starve to death the people of the cottage, go and rob it, rob the people, not only will you get nothing, if the people blackmail themselves, you have to follow the cottage to survive, or your own burden, rob everyone's clan, you don't have the strength and ability, what's wrong with this world? What the hell is going on?

When a robber can't survive in a world, is there any hope?

"That's right." At this time, this staff member stepped forward and said, "How to deal with the things that the Zhao family asked us to help with yesterday?" The Zhao family said that the matter was done, and they would give them thousands of stones. ”

Zhang Hanhu tilted his head and thought about it, left and right: "The Qian family is not very powerful, we can deal with it with all our might, and we can still succeed, but the Qian family also gave us peace money, if we really send troops to destroy him, we will lose the credibility of other small families that gave us peace money, which is actually more than worth the loss." Zhang Hanhu said very seriously: "To be a robber is to have credibility, this is the first." ”

At that time, the staff was simply stunned, and the robbers began to talk about credibility? Has the world really changed? Then shouldn't I go to the court to find an official and a half-job, with my own character and reputation, is it more realistic than those officials.

At this time, the door was dark, two tall figures blocked the light outside, and a loud voice said: "The world is so chaotic, survival is the first, and what kind of righteousness and reputation should be paid attention to, and it is the most important thing for everyone to fill their stomachs." ”

Zhang Hanhu looked at it, but it was his son Zhang Niujiao and his inseparable brother Yang Feng.

Zhang Niujiao strode in, directly found a place to sit down, and then arched his hand to his father and said: "Dad, the food stock in the cottage is getting smaller and smaller, we must find a way to raise it, otherwise my 800 brothers will be affected in training." ”

"Your 800 brothers, your 800 brothers, do you only have those 800 brothers in your eyes, and don't you have more than 10,000 people in this cottage?" As soon as he mentioned his son's 800 brothers, Zhang Hanhu was angry: "Your more than 800 people directly consumed half of the grain and grass in the cottage, and as a result, they shouted and shouted in the back mountains every day, but they were of no use to the cottage, what am I raising you for?" Zhang Hanwu knocked on the table and scolded his son.

That Yang Feng just knelt there, bowed his head and didn't say a word, there was no way to meddle in the affairs between their father and son, especially since he was still an outsider, and it was even more difficult for outsiders to meddle in household affairs.

Zhang Niujiao didn't think much of his father's scolding at all, picked up a bowl of water and took a sip: "These eight hundred brothers are all brought down by me on the battlefield, they have really seen blood, and they have faced thousands of troops, as long as they are restored and then trained, that is the son of my tiger who swept the world, and when the time comes, your son and I will be the king and hegemon in this troubled world, but it will all depend on them, so we must let them eat well, therefore, just now the Zhao family said that we want us to help them destroy his mortal enemy Qian family, in order to obtain their land, At this time, we were powerful, not only did we get the 1,000 stone of grain promised by the Zhao family, but at the same time, we could also obtain all the assets of the Qian family. ”

For his son's ambitions, Zhang Hanhu really can't do anything about him, but he is still a little reluctant to destroy the Qian family: "The Qian family also pays us peace grain every year, once we destroy them regardless of reputation, then who is willing to pay us peace grain in the future?" We need to talk about credibility. ”

"Reputation, reputation, in this troubled world, can reputation be eaten? No, only real money is the real thing, and another one, what age is this? Or guard this dilapidated cottage, look at the vast world outside, that is where we come in, this time we destroyed the Qian family, if I can, I will also take the opportunity to destroy the Zhao family, with the money and food of these two families, I will gather the world's displaced people again, and then fight with the government. ”

"Fighting with the government? When is the bucket considered a head? Can you fight the government? ”

Zhang Niujiao laughed, leaned over and said to his father: "This is just as my brother Yang Feng said, fight with the government, fight against them, we will be the king and hegemon, if we can't fight them, we will also beat them, so that they are helpless against me, and then, force them to call me peace, reward me with an official and a half-post, as the so-called, die peacefully and quickly, kill people and set fire to the gold belt, as long as I become an official, you are the father of the official, isn't this much better than you always guarding the tattered cottage, everywhere is no one and no ghost is not a ghost?" ”

was said by his son, Zhang Hanhu was quite tempted, and glanced at Yang Feng sitting next to his son with certainty, I really didn't expect that this general who looked quiet would have such a far-sighted vision, if he really did what he said, then he could also open a mansion and build a government, and everyone had to call himself the lord when they saw him, which was thousands of times stronger than the leader of this cottage.

At this time, the staff also saw the hope of the future, so he also began to pry Zhang Hanhu, promised the conditions of the Zhao family, and destroyed the Qian family.

After Zhang Hanhu thought about it, he slammed his fist on the table: "In that case, we will do his vote, but this time, your 800 brothers have to fight the vanguard,"

Zhang Niujiao agreed: "Dad, don't worry, Brother Yang and I will definitely be able to kill that little Qian family with my 800 brothers." ”
