Chapter 57 Within a month, set foot in Zhujiazhuang
"And then?"
The old man sighed and said, "What else can I do later?" Han Xiaoliu injured Zhu Ba, how could Zhu Ba let him go, he was first beaten by two of his subordinates, and then he was caught in the Zhu family's Zhuangzi, and died the next day! ”
Lin Chong was furious in his heart, clenched his fists and said, "Then Zhu Ba is dead?" ”
"Not dead, just passed out......"
Lin Chong said angrily: "Then how dare Zhujiazhuang beat Han Xiaoliu to death?" Do you know about this? Does the government not care? ”
When the old man saw Lin Chong making such a big fire, he couldn't help but panic and said: "The people of the Zhu family have always been rampant and domineering, and there are no less than dozens of lives killed by them every year, what is it to kill Han Xiaoliu?"
As for Mrs. Zhu, he may or may not know about this matter. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Seeing that Lin Chong still looked like he wanted to eat people, and didn't react, the old man hurriedly explained: "In this Dulonggang radius of thirty miles, the old lady Zhu is like the emperor, and the people of the Zhu family are also rampant, and the people under him kill people, but it is a common thing, even if you know it, you won't care."
As for the government, the government and the Zhu family are so good that they are about to wear a pair of pants, not to mention that we don't dare to sue, even if we do, we won't care! ”
Lin Chong said again: "Let me ask you, the steward of the Zhu family is so evil, what about the old lady Zhu and the three sons of the Zhu family, can they do evil?" ”
The old man said with a bitter face: "Isn't it enough to have these dogs to do evil?" How many of them need to do evil themselves, just the annual rent and labor are almost too much for us to live!
Don't you know, the king, we call him Zhu Lao Lao on weekdays, but behind his back, we all call him Zhu Hades, Zhu Peel. ”
Lin Chong calmed down a little, the world in the late Northern Song Dynasty was like this, the imperial court pressed the local government, the local government pressed the local powerful landlords, and the local powerful landlords came to squeeze the tenant peasants.
For example, if there are two or three landlords in a village, if one family is excessive, the tenants will not rent their fields;
Moreover, tenants can also go to the county to sue, and the county magistrate can take the opportunity to beat and extort these small landlords, so small landlords generally rarely do bad things.
However, a large landlord like Zhujiazhuang, who controls more than 10,000 tenant households, is like a soil emperor, and naturally acts as a prestige and has no scruples.
Moreover, such large landlords must have a deep collusion with the government, and they must have fed the government long ago, so even if the tenants went to the county government to sue them, it was useless.
"Tell me, how did this Zhujiazhuang squeeze you?"
As soon as he said this, the old man's eyes suddenly turned red, and he couldn't help crying: "This wish the king of Hades first did not allow us to raise cattle, forcing us to only be small guests (if there are cattle in the tenants, the cattle guest will collect fifty percent of the rent; If there is no cattle, it is called a small guest), and you have to pay sixty percent of the rent.
On weekdays, they made all kinds of difficulties for us, so that they were like slaves and maids, carrying water and firewood, repairing the city walls, standing guard and guarding, and we had to do all the hard work;
And regardless of whether the farm is idle or idle, day or midnight, as long as there is a summons in Zhujiazhuang, each family must send a strong descendant to listen to the order.
If anyone dares to disobey, they will either not give it to the oxen, or they will be caught and beaten severely, so everyone is afraid and can only let them oppress them.
Then there is the fact that when collecting rent, we have to force us to give gifts to please the various stewards, otherwise we will collect more rent, Han Xiaoliu did not give gifts because he wanted to marry, so he was made difficult by Zhu Ba. ”
"Military master, even if this is the way of the world, the world is as black as a crow, and the big families and heroes in our Zhending Prefecture are also like this......"
"It's the same in our place, the world is dark, and many people in our village can't live anymore......"
At this time, the old woman's mood gradually calmed down, and she didn't know where the strength came from, she knelt down in front of Lin Chong, and the two recruits didn't hold it.
"King, can you Liang Shanjun really call the shots for me?"
Lin Chong hurriedly helped her up and said firmly: "Yes, believe me, within a month, I will definitely break Zhujiazhuang and send Zhu Ba and Zhu Chaofeng to you, let you dispose of it!" ”
The old woman became excited, struggling and about to kneel down again, Lin Chong comforted her, turned her head, and swept her eyes over the villagers of the original Hanjia Village who were watching the excitement.
"Zhujiazhuang is so oppressive and bullying you? Why are you so willing to be bullied by them? My Liangshan Army is a team that does the right thing for heaven and is the master of the house for the people.
and free house and land, as well as a 30-inch copper settlement fee, why is no one willing to go along with Liangshan? ”
The old man was a little frightened, and only then said, "It's not that we are willing to be bullied by him, it's just that we ...... It's just that my arms can't twist my thighs!
And it's not that we don't want to go along with Liangshan, it's really that the strong descendants of the family have been called away by the people of the Zhu family, we don't dare! ”
Lin Chong suddenly understood, and couldn't help but smile cruelly: "Now that I'm going to take you all away, I want to see how dare the people of his Zhu family!" ”
The faces of the old man and the people around him changed greatly, but Lin Chong sank his face, stared at him, and repeatedly assured that the Zhu family would not dare to dare to do these exquisite descendants.
When these people saw that Lin Chong was really angry, they were also worried in their hearts.
Although they said it well, they don't take a stitch from the people, and they are the team that is the master of the house for the people, but in the end, they are strongmen in the mountains, who can guarantee that they will not kill people and wash the village with blood?
So, although the boss was reluctant, everyone silently began to pack up the only little clothes at home, and helped the old and the young to follow Liangshan's team.
"Brother Bian, Brother Meng, you take people and continue to walk forward, but there are villages belonging to Zhujiazhuang along the way, take people away......"
After arranging these, Lin Chong rode alone in front of Zhujiazhuang City, and shouted: "The people of the Zhu family, the old turtle, and the three wastes of the Zhu family have heard this, immediately hand over Zhu Ba, and then call out all the land you have annexed in the neighboring villages over the years and return it to the other party!"
If not, within a month, my Liangshan army will definitely set foot on your bird Zhuangzi, Zhu family will not leave one old and young, and other people surnamed Zhu will all be caught on the mountain to be cattle and horses! I do what I say! ”
"The thief deceives people too much, I swear to kill him!"
"Dog thieves are really good bullies, we can't ......"
Zhu Biao and Zhu Hu, who were practicing marksmanship on the martial arts field, were immediately furious when they heard the report from Zhuang Ke, carrying a silver gun and flying with a bow and arrow.
But when Zhu Biao saw Lin Chong, he was so angry that he was so angry that he pointed and scolded: "Liangshan dog thief, I really want to be afraid of you when I Zhujiazhuang!"
Say that I will be able to level my Zhujiazhuang within a month, I am really afraid! Scared grandpa to death!
Grandpa also told you that if you have the ability, you can bring the troops to fight, and if you don't have the ability, don't bark here! ”
"Okay, that's what you said, don't say I didn't give you a chance.
Grandpa kindly reminds you that from now on, if you want to eat, drink, hurry up and enjoy your few lives, and then wash your neck and wait for the knife! ”
Unable to lure down these three cubs and capture them alive, Lin Chong was a little disappointed, and after a cruel word, he beat the horse and left.
