Zheng Sike's stomach was on fire, and he got out of the carriage and ran to the big iron gate and knocked hard. "Open the door, open the door quickly."

"Who is it?" The slow voice of the Mo family's servant came from inside.

"Lord Cheng of Songhua County asked us to come over to find your master Mo Weibao and tell him to come out quickly." Seeing that the other party refused to open the door, Zheng Sike simply picked up a brick on the ground and knocked it hard.

"Lord County? Don't knock on our door, I'll report it now." The servant ran inside.

Soon the servant came running back and cried out, "My master is not at home, so come back another day." ”

Zheng Sike ran back to Song Wenjian's side and said, "Young master, Mo Weibao is afraid of running to other places and doesn't dare to stay at home. ”

"You believe their words?" Song Wenjian said to Wu Guanhai: "There are still bricks over there, you knock on the door with Sike, I see if they can still sleep?" ”

Wu Guanhai didn't say a word, picked up the brick and knocked the iron door.

Dai Wang and the others couldn't fight a snake like Mo Weibao, so they could only stand behind and watch.

"Don't knock on the door, I said the master is not at home." The servant inside cried out.

Song Wenjian shouted loudly: "Mo Weibao, don't pretend, I know you're inside." If you don't come out tonight, then we'll knock here for a night and see how you rest. ”

The other lieutenants also brought some peasants over, and when they heard that Mo Weibao might change his mind and refuse to sign a contract with them to pay taxes and grain, they all became worried.

About a stick of incense, Mo Weibao's voice came from inside: "Don't knock, I'm out." ”

The big black iron door opened, and a few strong servants with torches ran out, and then Mo Weibao walked out, next to two big men with knives, followed by more than two dozen male servants with sticks in their hands.

"What's wrong? Township Chief Mo, aren't you not at home? Song Wenjian sneered.

"I came back late on something, and the servant didn't know about it." The cunning Mo Weibao staggered the topic. "Young Master Song, it's so late, what's the matter with you coming to me?"

Song Wenjian said: "Township Chief Mo, I heard that you took Dai Wang's contract away, and my father sent us over to take it back to the Yamen, and the county commander wants to see it." ”

"The prefectural commander wants to take a look?" Mo Weibao's expression froze, his face moved, he didn't expect that this matter had alarmed the county magistrate.

Song Wenjian caught the change on Mo Weibao's face, and said with a smile: "Yes, my father has already reported to the county magistrate, and the county magistrate praised you after hearing it, and also said that he wanted you to go to the county yamen as a pawn next year." ”

Chen Huatao used to take this road, first as the head of Hengshan Township, then as a yamen warden, and finally became a canonical history.

There are two ways to become an official in the Yue Dynasty, one is to be admitted to the official examination, and the other is to donate money to the official.

Zheng Sike looked at Song Wenjian in surprise, strange, he had been in the yamen, why hadn't he heard the county magistrate say such a thing?

Song Wenjian continued to bewitch Mo Weibao: "Township Chief Mo, you give me the contract of the villagers of Bali and bring it back to the Yamen." ”

Mo Weibao's eyes were gloomy, and he sighed in his heart. It's a pity that he can't turn back.

"Young Master Song, you go back and tell Lord Song, because there are other things in my family, and now I can't help the farmers in Yangqing Township borrow at one and a half times the interest, if it is three times, I can still consider using their fields as collateral." Mo Weibao made up his mind.

"Mo Weibao, you're too black-hearted." Dai Wang and the other lieutenants jumped up angrily. "You wait, let's go to the army."

Mo Weibao sneered: "If you want to do it, what do you have to do with me." In addition, if the strong men in your family are not at home in the future, it is uncertain whether the women in the family will have an accident. ”

Dai Wang's face changed, this is a threat to the public. If Dai Wang and the others dared to become soldiers, Mo Weibao and the others would deal with their families.

The child may die young, and the beautiful lady of the family will be humiliated by others, which makes them afraid.

Song Wenjian stared at Mo Weibao: "Mo Weibao, it seems that you have discussed with Chen Huatao to yin my father?" ”

"I don't know what you're talking about." Mo Weibao said loudly: "It just so happens that you elders are here, I told you, Song Hua can't protect you, if you go to ask Lord Chen, there may be hope." Hmph, Song Hua doesn't have a big head, and if he wants to wear such a big hat, doesn't he want to kill our Yangqing Township? Today in the county, Lord Chen asked Lord Tongju to help us complete the collection of taxes and grains in Yangqing Township, but Song Hua did not agree. Since he has such a ability, he will help everyone complete the payment of taxes and grains by himself. ”

Mo Weibao had to admire Chen Huatao's strategy, and used such a statement to excuse himself, no one said him, and some people would accuse Song Hua.

Chen Huatao had already designed that when he was in charge of the collection of taxes and grain in Yangqing Township, he immediately made a three-fold loan contract with Mo Weibao.

If someone wants to be a soldier, terrorize their family. Everyone is afraid that they will go to the army on the front foot, and someone will come to sleep with their women on the back foot, and kill their children.

When the time comes, some timid farmers will be scared, and some people will start to sign contracts, and they will follow suit, and they will definitely make a lot of money this year.

In addition, Chen Huatao also said that Mo Weibao's eldest son had killed a homeless person in the first month of this year, which made Mo Weibao very frightened, he didn't expect Chen Huatao to still have such a handle as their family, he had to listen to Chen Huatao's words.

Sure enough, some villagers were talking in private: "So that's the case, no wonder Township Chief Mo refuses to sign a contract with us." ”

Mo Weibao glanced at Song Wenjian and said with a cold face: "I have already made it clear to you, if you make noise in front of my house again, don't blame me for being unkind." ”

Song Wenjian shouted angrily: "Okay, you Mo Weibao, we will go back to the county now, and go to the county magistrate early tomorrow morning to sue you." ”

Dai Wang immediately followed suit, "Yes, our chief will take the villagers to the yamen tomorrow morning to sue Mo Weibao, saying that he deceived us. ”

Mo Weibao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but he didn't say anything, and went back with his subordinates.

In order to prevent Song Wenjian and them from staying here, the servants of the Mo family also put back all the lanterns outside, and it was dark all around.

Song Wenjian asked Lao Zhuang to bring the horse lantern over and said, "Dai Wang, you go back first, go to the yamen early tomorrow morning, and sue Mo Weibao with my father, to see how majestic he is?" ”

"Yes, we're going to sue him." After Dai Wang explained it to the other lieutenants, they went home in the dark.

"Alas, Young Master Song, I knew that there would be such a result." Wu Guanhai sighed and said to Song Wenjian.

"Guanhai, don't worry, it'll be fine, everything is with me." Song Wenjian said with a smile. "Let's rush back to the county now, and then count it with my father, and tell Mo Weibao tomorrow, it is estimated that the county magistrate will not spare Mo Weibao in order to complete the task of collecting taxes and grain in Yangqing Township."

Wu Guanhai's eyes lit up, Young Master Song was right. He hurriedly said, "Okay, let's rush back to the county immediately." ”
