Chapter 143: Carnival
Deng Long stopped the old peasant's desire to continue, stood up, found a grinding plate, jumped on it, looked at the surprised villagers, and said loudly:
"Ladies and gentlemen, down here is Deng Long, the owner of Liangshan Cottage!"
Before Deng Long's words fell, the ground was boiling, although there were not many people, but the sound was definitely not small.
Li Kui stood under the grinding plate, screaming viciously and quietly, perhaps Li Kui was too vicious, and there was a sobbing sound from the children underground.
Deng Long saw that the crowd was quiet, and said loudly: "I know that everyone is not doing well now, so I want to give the fields of the Zhu family, the Li family and the Hu family to everyone." ”
This time it was surprisingly quiet underground, and no one spoke.
The old farmer who was talking to Deng Long just now sneered and said, "Don't hurt us, these fields are given to us, and we don't dare to plant them!" ”
Deng Long said with a smile: "The old man's worries, Deng Long knows, and listens to the late life!" ”
Clearing his throat, Deng Long said: "What this Zhujiazhuang looked like before, everyone knows it in their hearts, so I don't need to say more!"
Now I want to tell you that from now on, Zhujiazhuang does not have to pay taxes to the imperial court, only pays 10% of the land rent to Liangshan, and you can live here in peace and well, and you don't have to worry about not having enough to eat! ”
Every fool of these old peasants, as soon as Deng Long finished speaking, one of them said: "If the strongman wants to rebel, don't get involved with us croppers!" ”
"Yes! We just want to eat and eat, and we don't want to make a rebellion against the court! ”
“……!”
Deng Long suppressed the boiling crowd with both hands and continued: "Don't make noise, listen to me slowly!" What kind of person am I, Deng Long, everyone should have heard of me, right? ”
"The owner of the village asks for the people's life, and he is a first-class good person in Shandong!"
"It's been a year since the owner of the village arrived in Liangshan, and we haven't heard anything hurtful to the owner of the village!"
Deng Long listened to everyone's evaluation, nodded with satisfaction, and said loudly: "Therefore, I, Deng Long, will harm anyone, and I will not harm the people, because this is my Deng Long's root that gave birth to me and raised me!" ”
"Okay, just rush to say this, I'll do it with you!"
A thin man in the crowd squeezed in front of the people, bowed his head and bowed without a trace of twisting.
Deng Long hurriedly jumped to the ground, helped Li Erniu up, and said with a smile: "A good man should be like this, I, Deng Long, accepted you!" ”
Li Erniu nodded excitedly, straightened his waist, and stood behind Deng Long.
Deng Long smiled with satisfaction, jumped on the grinding plate again, and said condescendingly: "I know what you are afraid of, here, I promise you, I will never drag you down, if there is an official to collect taxes, you will come to Liangshan for help quickly, I will call the shots for you!" ”
The old farmer shook his head and said: "Liangshan is more than two hundred miles away, when we run to find you, you can rush here again, we can't wait!" ”
Deng Long said confidently: "I have already had a countermeasure for this matter, as long as a beacon tower is built in Dulonggang, and several transfer stations are being built along the road, as long as the officers and soldiers come, you will light the wolf smoke, and within two hours, the people of Liangshan will definitely arrive."
I also want to leave a man and horse in Dulonggang, the number is about more than a thousand people, all of them are elite soldiers, you can voluntarily make up a little more number, there are two or three thousand people and horses, with the walled city, it is enough to hold on until the arrival of the Liangshan army!
In the end, if we lose, you will put all the blame on us, and say that Liangshan forced you to do this, so what do you have to worry about! ”
Deng Long swept away the more and more spectacular crowd, a trace of struggle appeared on their faces, and their hearts were a little shaken.
Deng Long hit the railway while it was hot: "As long as you promise what I say, I, Deng Long, will invest a huge amount of money to build a academy, as long as it is a child of Dulonggang, you can study there!" ”
The struggle on people's faces became faster and faster, and Deng Long finally said: "In addition to the academy, I will also invite a few medical Dao saints to sit in Dulonggang and treat you for free!" ”
"Whoa."
The crowd was completely boiling, and the old farmer first agreed, saying: "The old man has done it with you, people are dead and birds are facing the sky, as long as they can eat their stomachs and the dolls can read and write, the old man's life will be handed over to the owner of the village!" ”
The old peasant excitedly kept beating his thin chest and swearing loudly and heroically.
Then the voices of the villagers gradually unified, and they shouted in unison: "Listen to the orders of the village owner!" ”
Deng Long's expression was also irrepressible excitement at this moment, as long as this experimental field is completed, Liangshan will win the hearts of the people in the future, not to mention millions!
Deng Long laughed and clasped his fists and saluted: "Thank you for your trust, I, Deng Long, have made an oath here, if you can fulfill today's promise in the future, you will definitely not die a good death!" ”
Deng Long's words were sonorous and powerful, without hesitation, which attracted praise from the villagers of Dulonggang.
Next, Deng Long jumped off the mill and chatted with everyone for a while, won over his feelings, and announced on the spot that as long as there were pigs and sheep at home, Liangshan would buy them all and slaughter them all tonight for the villagers in Dulonggang to eat and drink.
Deng Long's actions completely made these diligent and simple villagers return to their hearts, and there is no gap between them and Liangshan.
The weather in May was hot, but it couldn't stop everyone's excited looks, and without Deng Long's organization, the villagers began to slaughter pigs and sheep, prepare cauldrons, and clay pots, and make full preparations for the evening carnival.
At this moment, just to fill their stomachs, the people who survived were completely alive.
As long as the year is not too bad, Liang Shan can always keep his promise, as long as the land rent is 10%, the great responsibility of family reproduction is no longer a matter of life and death.
This night, Dulonggang was a lively scene, children running around, big girls and little daughters-in-law gossiping together.
Gathered into a bunch of old people talking about the past, young people looking forward to the future, full of vitality.
Deng Long was surrounded in the innermost, and several old grandmothers kept lobbying, how beautiful the two flowers on the gang were, and how good Xiaocui's figure was, she was a child who could give birth!
As long as Deng Long nods, hundreds of women will bury him alive immediately.
For the sake of his great image, Deng Long pushed Li Kui to the front and said: "This is the deputy owner of the cottage, and his status is not below me, so let the grandmothers tell him first if they have a daughter-in-law!" ”
sternly told Li Kui not to scare these lovely old men, and then he escaped from the crowd in embarrassment.
Wiping a handful of cold sweat and letting out a sigh of relief, Deng Long smiled bitterly, just now he almost fell in love with these old grandmothers, and promised to come down and marry these teenage little boys, it's really dangerous!
wiped his sweat again, and didn't hear Li Kui's furious roar in the crowd, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Alone on a hill, looking at the people singing and dancing in the lamplight.
Deng Long was arrogant for a while, and shouted: "You have a good plan, I have a wall hoof, see who can laugh, go to the horse!" ”
This night was happy for the people of Liangshan, and the men of Dulonggang got drunk in advance. There are constantly big girls and little daughters-in-law who talk to them about their life ideals.
Deng Long didn't give the order to restrain them, and these old bandits had a happy night.
It's just that no one would have thought that tomorrow the men in Dulonggang will have to go out collectively in green hats!
