"Things that don't fight for anger, and you, I let you instigate the young master to make trouble and kill you......."

Bang~~, a middle-aged man in a brocade robe and a staff hat came to Zhou Liang around forty years ago, and slapped him in the mouth without saying anything;

Then he raised his feet and kicked the two Tsing Yi servants to the ground, kicking and cursing at the same time, no need to ask, this person is Zhou Chunfu, the rich man of Xinghuaying Village.

"Iron Rooster Zhou peels, it's you Zhou Chunfu Zhou.

Beat ~~, beat hard, but even if you beat these two slaves who misrepresented their loyalty to death, your son Zhou Liang's responsibility will not be reduced by one point. ”

Being made such a fuss by him, the old man Qin Zegang, who wanted to greet the Admiral, the former county commander of Zhongmu County, had a burst of displeasure on his face, and just when he wanted to say something sarcastic, the young man sitting next to Xu Yun had already smiled faintly and said.

"Grass man Zhou Chunfu see Lord Xu, the child was confused for a while and did something wrong, I am willing to take out five taels of silver to compensate Huang Ren's family, and exempt him from renting for one year;

I also hope that Master Xu will spare him once because he was young and ignorant, and he did not make a big mistake. ”

was slapped in the face mercilessly by Liu Huayun in front of hundreds of people in the village, Zhou Chunfu knew that it was useless to act again, so he hurriedly came to Xu Yun and bowed to the end, pleading in a low voice.

Five taels of silver is enough for the expenses of the four members of the Huang family for half a year, and they can also be exempted from renting for one year, and Zhang Xia has not lost her life; With such generous conditions, Huang Ren, who didn't want to cause trouble, was still quite tempted.

It's just that how could Liu Huayun let this matter end so easily, as soon as Zhou Chunfu's voice fell, he said with a light smile;

"Tut~~, five taels of silver is a lot, Zhou Dashan is really generous; In this way, the parents and villagers in Xinghuaying Village who were bullied by your son should not be grateful to you.

Don't be afraid, everyone, Master Xu Yun is in charge of you and others, just come and ask for money......"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Dayuan's face immediately turned pale and there was no trace of blood.

Over the years, his son has offended almost everyone by being idle and using both soft and hard tricks everywhere;

If the onlookers all came to beg for money, wouldn't the thousands of family fortunes he had accumulated without pulling out a dime be in vain.

"Yes, if you have any grievances, just say it, and this official will deal with it impartially."

Xu Yun ignored the stunned Zhou family father and son, and expressed his attitude very cooperatively.

"Lord Xu, Zhou Liang took advantage of my absence two years ago to tease my wife in the name of collecting rent, and later after I bumped into me, he also let the evil slave beat me...... Please let the adults call the shots for the small people. ”

Erniu, who was full of resentment towards Zhou Liang before, was the first to squeeze out of the crowd and bent down to Xu Yun to salute.

"Oh~~~, molesting a woman from a good family in broad daylight, and daring to hurt the bitter master, the nature of this matter is extremely bad, I'm afraid it can't be solved without twenty taels of silver, you can do it outside Zhou."

"My lord, Zhou Liang beat me half a year ago......"

"My lord, Zhou Liang insulted my daughter last year...... please call the shots for Xiaomin."

"My lord, Zhou Liang peeked at the slave family bathing ......."

Ge Erniu told this disgraceful past, but the truth was that his wife couldn't resist the temptation, so he was with Zhou Liang or something......

But even so, the young man next to Lord Admiral made a judgment of compensation for twenty-two days at once, and Lord Xu Yun did not object.

The crowd of onlookers immediately swarmed into the small courtyard, and began to accuse Zhou Liang of his crimes, and the most speechless thing was that many people's reasons were too strange, obviously just to take the opportunity to ask for silver taels.

Liu Huayun ignored Zhou Chunfu, whose face became more and more ugly, and Zhou Chunfu, whose forehead was full of cold sweat, stood up with a coquettish smile and waved his hand to stop the commotion;

"Fellow villagers, don't worry, say one by one, uncle starts with you, what? Zhou Liang insulted your daughter, so why didn't you go to the government to report to the official......

Oh, your daughter is a sheep, the crime of treating animals is unforgivable, Zhou Yuanwai, please take out ten taels of silver to compensate Uncle Xie. ”

This kind of strange verdict suddenly ushered in a burst of laughter from the people of Xinghuaying Village, Qin Zekun, who was sticking to the long beard, looked at Liu Huayun with interest, and the eyes of the Zhou family father and son were full of resentment.

"Big brother, you have been injured by Zhou Liang, and you must have delayed a lot of farm work because of this, counting the cost of lost work, decoction and medicine, and mental damage, it will cost at least fifteen taels......

Oh, my sister-in-law is so beautiful and natural, she was peeked at by this shameless disciple, and she can't solve it without ten taels of silver......"

"That's enough, if you really sentence like this, Lord Xu, you will arrest Liangzi and sentence him in prison, and I, Zhou Chunfu, should not have given birth to this rebel."

Listening to the tenants who are usually afraid of him, such a statement of adding oil and vinegar, and Liu Huayun's light-hearted pricing, every number is like a sharp knife cutting his flesh;

In the end, Zhou Chunfu, the iron rooster who cherished his money like his life, stopped everyone, gave Xu Yun a salute, and was ready to leave with his sleeves brushed up.

However, from beginning to end, he did not dare to speak out to provoke the young man in front of him, which shows that he is not a reckless and brainless person.

"Dad, the child knows it's wrong, you save me! I'm going to change my ...... next time."

Zhou Liang has been pampered since he was a child, he didn't want to suffer in Kaifeng Prison, so he hurriedly knelt down and crawled in front of Zhou Chunfu, pulled his shirt and begged.

"Rebel, I'm not your father......"

Zhou Chunfu immediately slapped his son again, and walked outside, really meaning that he would rather give up his son than his family wealth.

"Wait, I asked Uncle Cui to call you over, but not just to solve your son's matter? Uncles and uncles, wait a minute, let's talk about compensation later......"

It's just that he just took two steps, Liu Huayun smiled faintly, and then opened his mouth to stop him.

"This lord's name? I don't know what to do with me and Qin Lao? ”

Zhou Chunfu's ability to accumulate such a large family business is not only related to his stingy nature, but also his smart mind occupies a large part, which can be seen from the fact that when he spoke, he directly brought Qin Zekun with him.

"Me? The surname is Liu Minghuayun, and this time I came to Xinghuaying Village with my father-in-law Xu Yun, which is to collect the cultivated land under the order of the emperor and return it to all the villagers......

Of course, today's saintly wisdom will not let you suffer a loss, high-quality fertile land is 17 taels per mu at the market price, excluding tax silver is counted as 12 taels, and barren land is 5 taels;

All the land purchase money will be settled in three installments within ten years, I don't know what Qin Lao wants? ”

Because of the privatization of land, Dafeng Agriculture's tax support is generally the high cost of land sales and the annual grain paid by the landlord.

The advantage of this is that it follows the system of the previous dynasty, can easily gain the support of the wealthy class who own land, and it is also easy to manage, most of the grain is stored in private hands, and there is no need to worry about the problem of building grain storage;

The disadvantage is that the landless people, under the pressure of high rents, live an unspeakable misery, and if they encounter a slight natural or man-made disaster, they may revolt and rebel because they cannot survive.

Moreover, the grain, grass and military salaries needed by the imperial court often need to be purchased from large households, and once the treasury is empty, turmoil is not far away.

When talking to Xu Yun yesterday, Liu Huayun already understood everything, so he only looked at Qin Zegang with a faint smile.

As for Zhou Chunfu's valuable fertile land, this guy is rich and unkind, so there is no need to be polite to him at all.
