Chapter 473: Jade Hairpin
Now they have finally been rescued, and there are no corrupt officials to exploit them anymore. They have heard of the name of the Flying Tiger Army for a long time, and they have always heard that there are two strange people from Southern Chu in the Flying Tiger Army, one is called Lu Xiaoyu and the other is called Supreme Treasure. They did a lot of vigorous things when they were in Nanchu. Now the well-known cotton, cement, and the originator of the money village where everyone is saving money are all run by them.
"This is Lu Xiaoyu, the general of our Flying Tiger Army, this is also the general of our Flying Tiger Army, and he is also the general of the Mengying Army, these Mongolian warriors have come all the way to us to help us get out of Xiang Yu's control." Liu Bang has been in Huaiyue City for a while, so he naturally takes on the task of diplomacy now.
The people saw that Supreme Treasure and Lu Xiaoyu both looked like dragons among people, and their appearances were one out of ten thousand, and some brave women came up directly to touch their hands, but fortunately they were blocked by the soldiers so as not to cause unnecessary crowding.
"Folks, our Flying Tiger Army and Mengying Army have already felt everyone's strong enthusiasm, I know that everyone is very excited to learn that your former county commander Yan Li was killed by our Flying Tiger Army soldier Liu Bang, but I want to say that your life will be happier in the future. I believe that some of the things that Lu Xiaoyu and I have done in Nanchu and Wuyue have made everyone very impressed. Not only is it farming to grow cotton to generate income for everyone, but there are also many new entertainment projects in business, such as health centers and financial management banks, which we will not talk about in the past. I promise you that we will serve you in the future and create more policies that benefit the people. And the tax that everyone is most concerned about is also temporarily reduced, and we need the help of the people to do a lot of big projects in the future, when the time comes, as long as everyone can contribute, the benefits will definitely not be less for everyone. The Supreme Treasure assured.
The people are not worried about anything, but the Supreme Treasure said that it will bring them more benefits, and the tax reduction and exemption will not only create opportunities for them to work and get rich, how can they not be happy? The people cheered and cheered, and the Supreme Treasure and Lu Xiaoyu were all clustered and stuffed into their hands with all kinds of food and clothing. As soon as the army came to the county government, Supreme Treasure and Lu Xiaoyu were stuffed with things by the enthusiastic people, and finally distributed them to the soldiers.
As soon as I entered the county magistrate's mansion, I saw that the richly decorated hall had been delicately decorated, and the wives and concubines of the strict county order were so frightened that they had fled with thin softness when they learned that the head of the family had been killed, and the maids of the family were a little too late to escape, and they hid when they saw the army coming in, and they did not dare to come out.
Supreme Treasure gave Li Yi a few words, and Li Yi was stunned for a moment after listening, and then nodded vigorously to express strong agreement. Then he and everyone went to the council hall on the county government to discuss the matter. Li Yi shouted in the front yard: "Don't panic and hide, we are the Flying Tiger and Mengying Alliance, and we are here to save you from these people who exploit you." Our general said that from today onwards, you are no longer subordinates, but people on an equal footing with us. You can continue to work here, and the general will pay you and give you your deed of sale, and if you don't want to do it here, you can leave here and make a living. ”
As soon as Li Yi said this, he was afraid that these people were the next Yan Li's servants, so they slowly walked out of the corner. One of the bold maids asked Li Yi directly, "My lord, I don't want to be a maid in Yanfu now, my seriously ill old father is waiting for me to go back to take care of him and take him to see a doctor, my mother has come to Yan County Commander to ask for love many times, but he is willing to let me go back because he wants to accept me as a concubine." I would rather die than marry him, and he insisted that he would not let me go. Now, my lord, can you let me go back? ”
"What's your name?"
"Returning to my lord, the little girl's name is Qiu Xiang."
"Qiu Xiang, okay, I know, I'll tear up your deed of sale and give you back your freedom, this is for you, your father needs money for medical treatment, take it to your parents! And I'm not an adult, we're all ordinary people, but the burden on our shoulders is a little heavier, and we're ordinary people who come to bring you happiness. Li Yi said with a smile to Qiu Xiang.
Qiu Xiang saw that Li Yi took out the silver and refused to ask for it, "My lord, how can you make this, you have already let me go, how can I ask for your money again?" I'm glad I got out of here. When Yan Li was here, he tried to defile me three times and twice, but I barely avoided it, and I couldn't hide from it, he was going to marry me as a concubine in the next few days, but fortunately, thanks to you, I was able to go back and take my father to see a doctor and take care of him. Your great kindness and great virtue Qiuxiang are toothless and unforgettable, how can you still accept your silver taels? Please bow to Autumn Fragrance first. ”
"Girl, how do you make this, hurry up! I didn't expect the girl to be such a woman who is not greedy for money and afraid of power, and I really admire it. It's a big deal to borrow this money from you first, and then you will return it to me when you have money, and you don't want to pay back the interest. Li Yi wanted to go up to help her, but halfway through the help, he remembered that there was a yellow flower girl opposite, and he felt that it was inappropriate, so he withdrew his hand and helped her up.
Qiu Xiang saw that the man in front of her was also a personable and upright gentleman, and unlike those who pitied her beauty, he had to use money to fund her and let her go back, and suddenly had a good impression of Li Yi.
"My lord, since you want to fund the little girl's silver taels, then I can't accept this money in vain, this is a hairpin handed down from the little woman's family, I originally planned to exchange some money for my father's medical treatment, and now I will treat it as an adult, and I will definitely redeem it when I have the ability in the future." When my father recovers from his illness, I will come back to the county government to serve the adults, and I will work as a cow and a horse to pay off my debts and interest. ”
Although Li Yi kept saying that he didn't need it, Qiu Xiang still insisted on doing it, and in the end, Li Yi compromised and accepted the hosta. Li Yi saw that this woman was not the same as other ordinary women and her personality was still so straightforward, and he liked her a little, so when she said this, Li Yi also nodded in agreement, and asked her to go back first and not delay her father's treatment. After Qiu Xiang finished saluting Li Yi, she turned around and walked out of the county government.
When the others saw that Li Yi really released the person as he just said, and also funded her money, and did not even leave an IOU, they knew that these people were different from the previous officers and soldiers, and they all expressed their willingness to stay and continue to work for them.
Li Yi's mind had already flown to the Qiuxiang girl outside the mansion at this time, and Li Da slapped him heavily from behind, "Big brother, what kind of spring are you sending here?" The two generals are looking for you to go back to discuss things, haven't things been settled here? ”
"That's it, let's go!" Li Yi looked out of the door reluctantly as he walked, holding the jasper hairpin tightly in his hand.
