Chapter Ninety-Nine: You Romantic's Joining the Army (Part II)

More than 20 long-haired soldiers kicked open the door of Old Man You's house and rushed into Old Man You's house viciously. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Soon, there was an exclamation in the house: "Two Sima Shanren, come and see, this old rich man actually hid more than ten gold ingots in the ashes!" ”

"The chief is a good man, and three hundred taels of silver were found in the water tank in the stove room."

"Pawn long good man, one thousand two hundred taels of silver and a box of jewelry were found in the coffin on the roof of the West Wing."

"Don't move, you bandits, robbers! My coffin! Woo~~" There was also a heart-rending cry in the house, and you could hear it with Master Zhang watching the lively You Romance on the side, this is the voice of You Wangcai You. His voice is particularly sharp, and he shouts like this when he collects rent in the township on weekdays.

"Good man, there are five hundred taels of silver hidden in the pigsty and haystack."

"Good Men ,............。"

The long-haired soldiers still searched on their own, and found more things.

There were more and more people who came to see the excitement, and after a while, dozens of people gathered, most of whom were villagers from Youjia Village. It is difficult to leave the homeland, and the villagers of Youjia Village are like this. Although the house was burned down, they were still reluctant to leave Youjia Village, and several families built simple grass huts on the site of the old houses, temporarily settled down, and prepared to rebuild their homes later.

You Romance also went back to the village to inquire about the news by the way, so he asked Master Zhang: "Master Zhang, is the battle between the long-haired thieves and the government over?" ”

Master Zhang hurriedly replied: "The second boy of the You family, don't call the long-haired thief soldier indiscriminately, it is called out by the Qing demon, we want to call it a holy soldier!" Remember, Holy Soldier! Then he remembered that he hadn't answered You Romantic's question, so he continued: "The Manchu government was beaten away, it was the holy soldiers who occupied Guilin City, and they will soon occupy the whole of Guangxi, and the holy soldiers will be the government in the future, and the original Qing demon government has become a thief soldier, remember?"

You Romance was a little dizzy by Master Zhang's words, but he finally knew that this long-haired thief soldier ..... ah, no, this holy soldier will become the master of this Guilin City in the future, and he is majestic. Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel a little envious.

Hey, no, such a fierce officer and soldier were beaten away? Isn't this holy soldier even more powerful than the officers and soldiers? You Romantic thought wildly, and admired the holy soldiers even more in his heart!

Half an hour later, more than twenty holy soldiers came out, and the courtyard was already full of piles of belongings.

You Wangcai was held by two holy soldiers and thrown in the courtyard. This You Wangcai had the heart to die, he had prepared to send his family away, and separated his own belongings that he couldn't take away, and hid them everywhere, but he didn't expect them to be copied out. He usually picks on the door, and the thought of losing so much property makes his heart feel painful.

It was the first time for You Romance to see so many white flowers of silver, and his eyes were staring straight.

The burly man shouted to his neighbors: "Fellow villagers, we are the Taiping Holy Army, our people's own army!" A few months ago, we were still living in the same hardship as you, and we didn't have the next meal. We are peasants, but we don't have our own land, so we can only rent the land of a bully landlord like You Wangcai, and after a hard year, most of them have paid rent, and not only have we not confiscated it, but we may also have to owe a lot of debts. ”

"We work hard every day, but we can't even fill our own stomachs, we can't even make thick coffins for our parents, and we can't buy a new dress for our children? Why is that? Are we lazy? Is it the annual harvest difference? No, neither! ”

"I, Lin Yuxuan, tell you, it's because of a mean and greedy bully landlord like You Wangcai! Because of this Manchu court that burned down the house and destroyed the house!! Think about it, You Wangcai doesn't do any work, why is he so well fed and so well dressed? So much money at home? Did he get his money by collecting rents from everyone and lending them usury? The burly man said it rightly, jumped on a bench, looked down at everyone, and continued: "Why can You Wangcai do this? It's not because the government helped him, the officials and officers and soldiers supported his words. Therefore, if you want to have your own land, if you want to eat well, and wear good clothes, you must get rid of bullies like You Wangcai and drive away the court like the Manchu government! ”

For a while, the villagers below were whispering and discussing.

"That's right, I've never had a full meal since I was a child, and I even ate half a bowl of dry rice and a bowl of porridge for the New Year. It turned out that all my white rice was exchanged for silver for You Wangcai, an old thing. ”

"That is, my grandfather worked hard all his life, and in the end he couldn't even afford a coffin! You Wangcai, this dog thing, return my grandfather's coffin! ”

"Are you really going to go with the long-haired soldiers to drive away the Manchu government? Isn't that a rebellion? Rebellion can be killed. A discordant voice sounded, very soft, presumably speaking a timid and fearful person.

"You Maodan, you really don't have the guts! Now that the Manchu government has been beaten away, otherwise You Wangcai can let people raid their homes? I, You Lao Liu, am going to starve to death anyway, so it's better to follow the holy soldiers to do it, just to rebel and earn food! A loud voice rebuked.

"The sixth is good, and I am a pockmark! Damn, I can't live anymore, what can I do if I don't rebel? ”

.....

You Romance unconsciously squeezed in the middle of the crowd, and was said by the villagers to be enthusiastic and heart-pounding!

At this time, the holy soldiers took out large piles of new and old papers from the house and piled them together. The burly man who claimed to be Lin Yuxuan jumped off the bench, took a torch, and said: "Folks, these are the house deeds, land deeds and documents issued by the Manchu government to You Wangcai, the bully, as well as many lease books, loans and other documents. With that, he threw the torch into the paperwork, and all the usury IOUs in the title deeds and lease books were ablaze.

And here, You Wangcai, who was erected by the two holy soldiers, saw this scene, and only had time to cry "Oh my God!" Then his eyes were black, and he fainted.

Lin Yuxuan kicked away the documents that had been burned to ashes, and said loudly: "Folks, now that Old Thief You has these real estate deeds and lease IOUs, his fields are ownerless, and I will take back all these fields on behalf of the Taiping Holy Kingdom and redistribute them to you!" ”

"Really? Master Jun, did you really give us the land? What conditions are not? An old man asked anxiously.

"Old man, of course it's true! My Taiping Holy Kingdom has begun to divide the land in Yongzhou Mansion in Hunan! As long as you enter the household registration of my Taiping Holy Kingdom and are willing to pay taxes to the Holy Kingdom, you will be able to get a share of the land. Even if you don't have it here, you won't have it for the time being, and it will be given to you in other places in the future! Lin Yuxuan replied categorically.

"Okay, I, You Mazi, want to join the household registration of your Taiping Holy Kingdom, and I am willing to pay taxes, and I want to divide the land."

"Mazi, what if the Manchu government calls back again? Let's wait and see! Someone persuaded.

"Then don't let the Manchus fight back! I've done enough as a tenant and been a cow and a horse for half my life, and I can't even eat enough, I'm fed up! I want to have my own land, I want to be a man! If the Manchus dare to come again, I will fight with them! This You Mazi's tough words spoke the hearts of the villagers, and many people echoed it.

"This pockmarked brother said it well! With our Taiping Holy Army here, the Qing Demon does not dare to come! The Holy Army is the army of the villagers, and it is the army of our peasants themselves, because our holy soldiers are all children of peasants, and it is our duty to protect you! Lin Yuxuan looked righteous and took the opportunity to publicize.

"Master Jun, I.... I... Can I join you and become a Holy Soldier? You Romance mustered up his courage, squeezed in front of the burly Lin Yuxuan, and asked loudly.
