Chapter 30 Righteous Harvest of Ox Gao

Chao Gai received by Chao Wen, the two sides were polite for a while, on the genealogy Chao Gai had to call Chao Buzhi uncle, Chao Wen was more than seven or eight years old when Chao Gai was older, and Chao Gai called him brother.

Chao Gai said: "I heard that my uncle was sick, and I was also very anxious, so I brought two ginseng sticks. As he spoke, Chao Gai took out two high-grade ginseng plants in the wooden box.

"Brother Xian is polite, my father's illness is really uneasy."

"I've heard of someone who can treat this disease." Chao Gai said.

"Brother Xian, say quickly, who can cure my father's disease, if it can really be cured, Brother Fool is grateful." Chao Wen took Chao Gai's hand and said hurriedly.

Chao Gai said: "This person is not a famous doctor, it is the village doctor Chao Que in my village, he has a very good set of incurable diseases, if my brother can trust it, you can try, you don't have to thank me if you are cured, and you don't have to worry about me if the treatment is not good, after all, this is an incurable disease." ”

Chao Wen has invited dozens of doctors recently, and he doesn't care about inviting one more doctor, and says, "Can Brother Xian invite this doctor over?" ”

Chao Gai shook his head: "He is very busy, I think you still use a carriage to carry your uncle over, you can rest assured, when you arrive at Chaojia Village, it is the same as your home, everything is arranged by me, if it can be cured, you will stay at ease to treat the disease, if you can't be cured, you will come back quickly, you see how it is." ”

Chao Wen touched for a while, looked at Wu Yongdao, and said: "My father is seriously ill, I shouldn't have said these things, but the house is counting on the rental income of 20,000 land, I don't know if Mr. Wu has contacted the tenants." ”

Wu Yong looked at Chao Gai, and Chao Gai said: "I'll rent this land, you can arrange for the housekeeper to talk to the housekeeper in charge of the farmland in my village, and if it is appropriate, I will sign a peace agreement today." ”

The 20,000 acres of land that Chao Buzhi is actually not particularly bad, but it belongs to the sandy land near the river, the wheat harvest is very poor, and there is no ready-made water channel, but it is still possible to grow soybeans and corn. As long as the canal is repaired, and the land can be considered a medium plot several times.

Liu Youtian had already communicated with Chao Gai and signed a ten-year contract with Chao Wen. Three buckets of sorghum rice per acre of land a year, and three buckets of sorghum rice per acre a year of agricultural tax are also borne by the leaser, and the contract is also filed by the government. If according to the normal situation nowadays, one mu of sorghum is nothing more than a harvest of more than 200 catties, and the cost of removing land rent, agricultural taxes, seeds, and hired workers will basically lose money.

Chao Wen promised to make arrangements at home, and in three or two days he would go to Chaojia Village for treatment, and Chao Gai and the others stayed in Jeju City for one night and went back the next day.

On the way, Wu Yong said: "How sure can Chao Que be." ”

"I don't know, let's try it in the past, our Chaojia Village Hospital has just been built, with six consultation rooms, a pharmacy, and sixty wards

They are all red brick and black tile houses, and the inside is plastered with lime and white, you can see it when you go over and see it, it's really good. There are a lot of flowers and trees planted in the yard, and after a few years, the flowers and trees will grow and look better. ”

Wu Yong shook his head again and again, knowing that Chao Gai was advertising for Chaojia Village Hospital, you must know that Chao Buzhi is one of the four bachelors of Sumen, and he has been a big official in the court, once he is treated, the source of customers will not roll in, not to mention that Chao Buzhi is still a year ago, if he is cured, he is likely to come back.

A group of six men and six horses followed the pipe into a black pine forest in front of them, which was so dense that there was no sunlight on the ground, and two carriages were close to each other. was walking, and suddenly a big black man jumped out of front of him, holding a double hammer, with thick eyebrows and big eyes on his Chinese face, and he spoke a little childishly, and he looked at his age, he was in his twenties.

"Uh-huh." The big black man shouted twice.

Li Kui rode a tall ploughing horse and walked in front when he saw someone blocking the road.

"What's calling early in the morning, whose little black child, don't get in the way, go and play." Li Kui scolded.

Hei Da said: "Who is laughing at you, I am a robber, grandpa, I am in a good mood today, so I will rob two horses for twenty taels of silver, and those who know each other will quickly leave the horses and silver."

"Haha, haha," Li Kui laughed, "Are you crazy, you won't rob you, you have to choose a single pedestrian, there are six of us, you are alone, you rob a fart, go, while playing, my brother won't let me beat people casually, otherwise I have to beat your fart." ”

The big black man said arrogantly: "What is the use of more people, I will be beaten down as soon as I move, I am a rare tough guy." ”

When Li Kui heard the word tough guy, he was like a little white rabbit seeing a carrot, jumped off the horse, walked two steps, and came in front of the big black man, staring at him with his eyes and saying, "You are a tough guy." ”

The big black man didn't know why, so he took two steps back in fright and said, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Haha, I'm a tough guy." Li Kui smiled and took the two large plate axes made of fine iron hidden in his waist in his hands, showed his moves, and fought with the big black man.

Li Kui chopped with a pair of big axes, this trick is called reckless chopping wood, which is the essence of Li Kui's seven or eight years of woodcutter career. Both sides are strong and fierce people, and their moves are simple, and they have been fighting for more than 30 rounds.

In the back, Chao Gai, Wu Yong, Ruan Xiaoqi, Hua Lei, and Liu Youtian each took weapons and watched there.

Hua Lei said: "Brother, this big black man is not simple, Li Kui may not be his opponent, how about I go up and beat him with Li Kui." ”

Chao Gai shook his head and motioned to continue watching, Li Kui couldn't be defeated for a while. Sure enough, Li Kui roared, and the axe's move became clever, it turned out that he had recently learned it, and the big black man who was slashing up and down again and again parried. But soon, the big black man attacked one after another, disrupting Li Kui's attack.

The big black man said: "Shout, the black boy has two hits." ”

"Who did the black boy say?" Li Kui said.

The big black man said: "The black boy said you." ”

Although Wu Yong's skills are not good, he still looks at people very accurately and says to Chao Gai: "This big black man is a rare fierce general, and he is a blessed person in appearance, that is to say, he is a lucky general, and my brother must recruit him." ”

"Try it." Chao Gai said.

Li Kui and Hei Da fought for sixty or seventy rounds, both of them were sweating, Li Kui's eyes rolled wildly, and said, "Oh mom, there is a snake behind you." ”

The big black man turned his head to watch, and at this moment, Li Kui kicked over, hitting the big black man in the lower abdomen, and squatted down at that time, and lost his double hammer. Li Kui smiled and used an axe to force the big black man who cut the path.

The big black man scolded: "It is said that the little white face has no kind eyes, why don't you have a black face and have good eyes." ”

Li Kui was very proud, and smiled at them behind him, meaning, what's the matter, I'm amazing.

Li Kui said: "You came out to rob, does your wife know?" ”

The big black man was silent and glared at Li Kui.

At this time, a middle-aged woman came out next to her, in her forties, with tattered clothes and a face of vicissitudes. ”

Later, Chao Gai and the others watched this comic scene, dismounted and walked over, Ruan Xiaoqi and Hua Lei were on guard.

"Auntie, now that you know why you let your son come out to rob? After all, robbery is not an honorable thing. Chao Gai said.

The woman said: "My son is a good person, our hometown was flooded last year, we went to Qingzhou Mansion to go to relatives to avoid the disaster, but who would have thought that Qingzhou Mansion this year locusts are very strong, relatives can not survive, had to go back to their hometown, along the road my son is performing arts to make some money, these two days I was sick, I can't walk, no money to live in the store, my son just said to rob the road, I didn't agree, but I can't stop him." It's all my fault, you let him go, and I'll bear the guilt. ”

Chao Gai asked the big black man: "What is your name, where is your name?" ”

The big black man looked unhappy, and he glanced at Chao Gai and said, "I won't tell you that I am Lushan Niugao." ”

"Since Brother Niu Xian has arrived in Jeju, haven't you heard that there is a Chao Gai in Yuncheng, who is righteous and squanders money, and has a Chao family building in the county seat, but anyone who is in distress will be funded, why not go over." Chao Gai asked.

"I've heard that the path is unfamiliar, I've walked it, and I have to go back for dozens of miles, my mother has a fever, I beg you to save my mother." The big black man fell to his knees.

Chao Gai sighed, seeing that this person didn't look like a fake, and said, "Okay." You haven't eaten yet, so let's eat something first. Chao Gai waved his hand and asked Hua Lei to take the bacon flatbread he had bought in the morning and handed it to Niu Gao's wife and Niu Gao.

The two sat on the floor and ate flatbread together.

When they finished eating, they gave them a kettle to drink, and at this time Wu Yong said: "I can't hide it, this is Yuncheng Chaogai, and now he is the training envoy of the Yuncheng regiment, and he has 5,000 township soldiers." This Niu Zhuang doesn't know what to do, if you want to go, we give you silver taels as a plate fee, if you want to stay, follow my brother back to Yuncheng, there is a hospital in the village just to treat the old lady. But I see that your mother has been sleeping in the open for several days, and she really can't continue to hurry, and if you rush like this, it will be difficult to ensure that there is something missing. ”

Chao Gai secretly screamed, Wu used a bad heart that was really not given in vain, intimidating Niu Gao. Sure enough, Niu Gao was fooled, and immediately bowed to Chao Gai: "It turned out to be Brother Chao Gai of Weizhen Jingdong, I'll go back with you, and go to the hospital to treat my mother's illness first." ”

Chao Gai said: "Li Kui brought your horse and rode it for Niu Gao's mother." ”

Li Kui muttered: "Why is it my horse, why don't you let Xiao Qi let the horse." ”

"Who asked you to kick someone's son, you can't compensate anyone." Chao Gai said.

Li Kui had no choice but to lead the horse over to Niu Gaoniang to ride, Niu Gao led the horse, Li Kui was beside him, and the team continued to hurry.

Li Kui and Niu Gao chatted after walking for a while, forgetting the fight just now.

"I'll tell you the little black cow, our Chaojia Village is good, there are several big ones in the black, I'll count them for you, the first one is my black iron cow, and the second one has a Xu Meng, called the golden cow, which is also gray and does not slip away, making firecrackers. There is also a bear called Chao Bear, which looks like a black bear into a spirit, and then there is you, who also looks black and whirring. ”

"Who did you learn from the axe, you actually had a tie with me, and we will fight again when we go back." Niu Gao said.

Li Kui smiled: "No problem, I promise not to kill you." ”

The team was very fast, and they didn't eat in the store at noon, they ate some flatbread on the side of the road, and just after noon, they arrived at the camp of the water guard team in Luhua Village.
