"San Lang knows that all of you fathers and elders have a hard time, and the good years in previous years are barely able to get by, and if you encounter natural disasters and other years, it is difficult to find even stuttering."

Gao Sheng's words reached the hearts of all the villagers and neighbors, and they all nodded one after another.

Everyone in the poor people's families is in such a situation, in the year of natural disasters, it is already burning high incense without selling children and daughters.

I saw his expression condensed, and said: "Since San Lang is fortunate to become a man in Xiahe County, I feel a great responsibility and feel the difficulty of all my fathers and villagers, so I promise to exempt you from the rent of your fathers and villagers in the first year, and halve the rent in the second and third years to give back to your fathers and villagers." ”

As soon as the words fell, the crowd boiled, no one expected Gao Sheng to say this, and praised him for his compassion for his father and fellow villagers, and some village elders were even so happy that they almost cried.

Looking at the excited crowd, the old man was in pain, he almost fainted on the spot, and scolded his mother in his heart, this loser, rent-free for one year, halved in two or three years, how much food does this have to earn!

He regretted this banquet very much, not only did he spend two dollars, but Gao Sheng also let Xiahe Village be rent-free for one year and halved for two or three years.

Gao Sheng looked at the happy neighbors, and sighed in his heart, isn't this Xiahe County man's idle lord not bad, one sentence can make the villagers of Xiahe Village so happy, more joyful than the New Year.

Rights are addictive, no wonder scholars have reduced their heads to rush for the exam, so they have to get an official and a half-job in order to make a name for themselves, so as to embark on a career of power.

But Gao Sheng is by no means a slave of power, according to his heart, to be a good rich man, usually basking in the sun in the courtyard, teasing his daughter, fishing, yo-yo birds, eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating, and a pig-like life is his life goal.

The problem is that he has been knighted, so he has to do something to attach to his status.

At the beginning of spring, when the imperial court sent more than 100 villagers, it was bound to reduce the rent of these foreign villagers.

lest the original villagers in Xiahe Village be jealous, which not only offends people, but also makes it inconvenient for him to act.

Favors naturally have to be given, otherwise how to lead?

The old man is a farmer from the roots, how can he understand the means of controlling people?

Soap and soap have made him a lot of money, and it is not a problem to live a life, and it is not a problem to squander, and the profits are given to the villagers, and the rent is reduced for three years, but it can win the hearts of these farmers.

At this moment, Gao Sheng's prestige in Xiahe Village, because of these words, rose to an unprecedented height in the hearts of the villagers, and even several village elders and village leaders in the village, on behalf of the villagers of Xiahe Village, came forward to give him a gift of gratitude, and asked him to return the salute in a hurry, and even said that it should be.

At this moment, Zhang Dazhu, who was welcoming guests outside the hospital, shouted: "There are guests arriving." ”

This kind of welcome is called strangely tight, according to common sense, it is "there is a guest, so-and-so congratulates or something", and now Zhang Dazhu only shouted "There is a guest", and there is no next surname, that is, the person who gave the gift concealed his name and did not report it.

When the housekeeper Sun Youfu welcomed in a team of gift-givers, the team was still carrying two boxes.

Gao Sheng was a little puzzled, the faces of this team of gift-givers were very unfamiliar, and he didn't know them at all.

I saw that the person at the head of the team hurriedly came to him to salute and said, "The little representative of my master congratulates Lang Jun on his knighthood." ”

Gao Sheng wondered, "Are you ......?" ”

This person didn't answer his question directly, glanced at the full audience, and said with a smile: "Can Lang Jun take a step to speak, there are many people here." ”

Seeing that he was so mysterious, Gao Sheng nodded, and led him directly to a secluded place in the backyard, and then said, "You can rest assured, right?" ”

This person hurriedly said: "The little one is ordered by Zhang Guanren to congratulate Lang Jun on his knighthood, and send two boxes of congratulatory gifts, and hope that Lang Jun will accept it with a smile." ”

This time, Gao Sheng understood, it turned out to be a congratulatory gift from Butcher Zhang, and the news was well-informed, but it was not surprising that such a big thing as his knighthood spread all over the country the next day.

Butcher Zhang is also smart, afraid that the previous forced old man and the old lady to leave home will be exposed, which will have a bad impact on Gao Sheng, so he has not dared to meet him, and the congratulatory gifts are also sent by others, and he does not report to the house at all, and he does not leak any water, which makes him feel that Butcher Zhang is interesting, but he is also a capable person.

He said lightly to this person: "Go back and tell Zhang Guanren that the grievances of the past need to be remembered, and the grievances must be repaid if you are promoted, and the grievances must also be repaid." ”

This person nodded hurriedly, and his submissive appearance made him feel helpless for a while, this is the benefit of power.

sent this person to the front yard, and the gift-giving team immediately left Gao's house, not even eating the banquet, and Gao Sheng didn't bother to keep them.

At this time, I heard Zhang Dazhu, who was welcoming guests outside, shouting: "There is a guest arriving, and the lord of Shanghe County congratulates the baron of Xiahe Village on the joy of being knighted, and sends four boxes of gifts and twenty silk horses." ”

All the villagers and neighbors present were shocked, and they all secretly said, why is this Shanghe County Lord Li Mingyue here again?

Surprised and surprised, but they still hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks in their hands, this humble law and rules cannot be broken.

The neighbors got up from their seats one after another, and then saw a fairy-like figure in the painting, led by Tian Shi slowly into the courtyard.

All the villagers and neighbors saluted Li Mingyue one after another, and there were many whispers in the crowd.

"I heard that this Shanghe County Lord is the young daughter of King Zheng, and she looks so handsome, like Guanyin Niangniang in the temple."

"That's not right what you said, I think it's much more handsome than Guanyin Niangniang."

"If I knew such a handsome woman, I would be willing to fight a bachelor for the rest of my life."

"Tsk, do you still want to know the county lord of Shanghe like that?"

"The third brother is really blessed, he actually knows the fairy-like Shanghe county lord in this painting."

“……”

All kinds of beautiful words rang out one after another, mostly lamenting Li Mingyue's beauty, and some lamenting the high promotion of Yanfu.

All the villagers and neighbors had seen Li Mingyue last time, and Li Mingyue was approachable at that time, which left a good impression on them, otherwise how dare they whisper the gossip of the county lord of Shanghe, and they would die?

Gao Sheng, the old man, and the old lady hurriedly greeted them, but they didn't expect Gao Yue to be faster than them, and they ran all the way, shouting "little sister" while rushing to Li Mingyue's arms.

Li Mingyue squatted down and opened her arms, and Gao Yue threw herself directly into her warm and soft embrace, rubbing back and forth.

Gao Sheng smiled bitterly, nerve-wracking, how can her daughter's actions seem to be taking advantage of Li Mingyue?

If he hadn't been sure that Gao Yue was a girl, he would have taken off Gao Yue's pants on the spot and confirmed Gao Yue's gender.

However, Gao Yue likes Li Mingyue, which also makes him feel a little sour, she is the daughter of her own family, why is she so unscrupulous and tired of Li Mingyue every time she sees her......
