The relatives around the sixth uncle, Zheng Long's cousins, were so frightened that their faces changed, Zheng Long waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't say it." You're not going to say that, are you? ”

However, looking at their faces, it was obvious that they were afraid that Zheng Long would go to the informant. Zheng Long also frowned, sure enough, the so-called modification of memory is not omnipotent. It's impossible for an enemy or stranger to instantly treat you as a relative. It is also impossible to make a distant cousin instantly become a close relative.

Or perhaps, the key objects are revised in a key way, and the general people are scribbled in revision.

Well, the latter is more likely.

Zheng Long groaned and asked him to take out this silver, which can be said to be a matter of seconds, that is, the silver left in the house, there are nine hundred and ninety taels.

However, the so-called Shengmi Endou Mi Hatred, Zheng Long gave them the silver for nothing and paid for them, so what will be there in the future, once Zheng Long does not pay for them, what do they think?

Let's talk about it farther, if these three surnames are the noble relatives of the Shu Han Kingdom in the future, and the children of Cheng I are the national cadres, if you want to collect taxes from them, you also need to set up rules. You can't break the rules of the future in vain.

The human heart and human nature are very scary and changeable, and without good rules, no matter how good the original intention is, it is impossible to have a good result.

Therefore, Zheng Long will never bear this grain for the villagers.

Zheng Long asked the sixth uncle: "When are we going?" ”

The sixth uncle said: "After the most remote Shuimo Village knows the news, it is time for us to set off for Guankou County. Just these two days. The head of the family is waiting for the news of the little old man. ”

Zheng Long said: "It's okay. I don't think we can negotiate a solution, and in the end, the additional faction will definitely hit us. ”

The sixth uncle frowned and said, "Who said it wasn't? It's just that Huang Xianzun is too much, although our Zhengjia Village is the largest village in Guan County, we can't just afford half of the additional payment. Alas, alas, it is also that our Zhengjia Village has not produced a talent in recent decades. Otherwise, Huang Xianzun couldn't bully us so unscrupulously. This is 500 taels of silver, 500 stone of rice, when will this hard life be a head! ”

Zheng Long's heart moved, and said, "Are there any bandits in Guan County?" The bandits must have gold, silver, and grain, right? ”

The sixth uncle changed his face and said: "There is Mei Niangzi in Lingyan Mountain, since Li Zicheng left last year, leaving a nest of sitting bandits, the little widow is the lady of the village snatched by Zhao Laokou, there are more than 400 people under his command, occupying the Lingyan Ancient Temple, and the three or four hundred Zhuang of the county have been fighting bravely for nearly two years, and they have not fallen behind. Hongkou is a township and ten miles, and they are all her tenants. She is thousands of acres of mountain fields and paddy fields near Hongkou, fertile and does not accept grain, not to mention, there are 2,000 stone surplus grain, but, the head of the family, our Zheng family is a child of a good family, how can we fight the bandits? Isn't this hitting an egg against a stone? ”

Zheng Long said: "Now the world is bad, we can't sit still, I will pay, our Zheng family, Zhang family, Zhou family's old and young masters, from fifteen to forty-five years old, one, count one, all follow us to train, and wait for February training, and then you will be sure to send troops." Besides, the county didn't pay us enough food for these two months. ”

The sixth uncle couldn't believe it, his face turned pale, and he said, "But, but, how much gold and silver does the head of the family do such a big thing?" ”

Zheng Long smiled and said, "Don't worry." ”

The sixth uncle said: "For such a big matter, I have to convince a few thorns in the village." Like your uncle Zhou Jigui, five brothers in their family, gave birth to twenty-three male and female babies, and five people in the second generation of the Zhou family, all of whom are thorns, if they are not convinced, the entire Zhou family will not move. ”

Zheng Long smiled and said: "I don't train the villagers in vain, anyone who is a militia in Qingyang District, I will pay two taels of silver a month!" ”

The sixth uncle stared at the round eyes and said, "Hair enough? ”

Zheng Long said: "Enough! This is our family's family, a private soldier, if he doesn't pay enough silver, how can anyone be willing to do it? ”

The sixth uncle said: "Well, I don't dare to say anything else, at least, our Zheng Zhang Zhou family has 300 families, nearly 2,000 people, all listen to the head of the family!" Just the three of us, enough for 300 people, no problem! ”

Zheng Long said: "Three hundred people, see how to use it, I don't think it's enough." Otherwise, you go to contact Yuan Yuanwai, and I will contact He Yuanwai, as long as they open their mouths, those two villages can also raise 200 villagers, so that there are 500 people available. ”

The sixth uncle smiled and said: "What kind of persuasion do you use, the head of the family is using real money to recruit the villagers, two or five dollars a month of silver, with the current world, enough to buy one stone of rice, a year is twelve stones, the so-called three stones of rice without hunger, twelve stones are enough to feed four people, and it is to protect the township, so the good family will not do it?" I'm afraid that if I give 200 places outside, people will be too little to panic. ”

Zheng Long nodded, had a recognition of the actual purchasing power of the silver taels in the Ming Dynasty, and said, "It makes sense." ”

Zheng Long said: "Of course, just two or five dollars is a little less, I also include three meals, lunch or dinner meat, and one chicken in the morning." ”

The sixth uncle was dumbfounded, half loud, and Fang said: "The little old man is sixty this year, but his body is as strong as an ox, and he is easy to live a long life. Does the head of the family see if Xiao Lao'er can be a soldier? ”

Zheng Long smiled and said, "The sixth uncle is laughing, but the sixth uncle can still take care of the logistics, so let's take five taels of silver for a month and eat with us." Three cousins, I see that you are strong, so let's be the captain first. Take three taels of money in January. ”

The sixth uncle slapped his youngest son, Zheng Long's little cousin, on the head and said, "Did you hear that? Silly boy, you can be regarded as holding an iron rice bowl. In the future, I will contribute to the head of the family with all my heart, and the head of the family will never lose our family. ”

Zheng Long also smiled.

After discussing with the sixth uncle, I walked to the tavern, yo, the kitchen also prepared dozens of long breads and beer, fresh grapes, I don't know how the Star Castle produces these, no matter what.

Zheng Long called his cousin to come in and get a plate, and came out to eat with the sixth uncle and they ate in the lobby.

Eat bread, bread crumbs are hanging on the beards of these cousins, these people, excited, such delicious pasta, it is estimated that only Shandong villagers can make it, Lu cuisine, is also famous all over the world.

Zheng Long naturally would not say that this is Western food.

After eating, Zheng Long waved his hand and said: "In the future, the old, weak, sick and disabled in the three surnamed families will manage the bar and the house for me, and the young and middle-aged people will be homemakers." You want to be a housekeeper or a villager, you have the final say. ”

Several relatives of the sixth uncle said: "I still want to be a housekeeper, Xiang Yong recruited too many people today and repatriated tomorrow, and as a housekeeper of the head of the family, at least I don't have to worry about food and clothing in this life." ”

Zheng Long thought of the online articles he read in his spare time, and knew that you had to make others equal to you, but in Mingren, you didn't do it.

For them, being a housekeeper, eating and wearing are all first-class, well done, and the head of the house also rewards you with a girl, how good, to be a villager, a fool!
