Chapter 14: The January Covenant
If, today, there are good deeds wandering the streets in Goudi Village, you will see a strange scene, two columns of people holding farm tools, are marching towards a certain place in the east of the village with hatred, and the goal of this team is the house of the village chief Li. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Village Chief Li, full name Li San, this village chief is not to say how capable he is, I heard that Li San's ancestors had an ancestor who was lifted, and later children and grandchildren all relied on this lost glory to eat.
Therefore, the village chief Li's home covers an area of hundreds of acres, with pavilions and pavilions, flowers and trees, and countless others.
"Third master, our door must not be opened?"
A family member with a natural buddy's face asked in a low voice, in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, the village chief Li is sipping tea carefully, there are several stacks of dim sum on the stone table, and a few maids around Li San are amused, mandarin ducks are playing in the water, vermilion and willow green, ring fat and swallow thin, Lao Li is so uncomfortable and comfortable.
Lao Li waved his hand at the moment, and said with an old face: "What door to open?" Which door to open? When the door is opened, those who call Huazi will not rob me of Li Laosan's wealth, and if you ask this stupid thing in the future, be careful to beat you. ”
The family didn't dare to say anything when he heard this, so he retreated in amusement, and Lao Li continued to giggle with his little maids.
"Li Sanye is really calm and relaxed, let the wind and rain blow outside his door, and we won't move at all."
A maid dressed in flowers and pink rouge complimented in a coquettish voice.
"Yes, my sister is really right, we are in this door, and everything outside has nothing to do with us."
Another girl with high eyebrows and bright eyes chimed in.
"Thanks to my Lao Li's clever calculation, if there was divine help, I would have hoarded thousands of stones of grain a long time ago, otherwise I would have encountered a locust plague in this famine year....
When Lao Li heard the compliments of the maids, he didn't feel fluttering, and immediately said proudly.
Several people were speechless for a while, and the scene was unsightly.
At this time, a sudden gust of wind suddenly blew off a hundred-year-old tree in the courtyard, Lao Li's heart almost went into arrest, and not long after, the family who had just retreated suddenly looked nervous and came forward to report.
"Third master, our door was blocked by a large group of untouchables, and the leader was a teenager."
Jia Ding tried to stay calm, but gasping for breath meant that he was more nervous.
Li Sanye was shocked when he heard this, his hands trembled, and the teacup in his hand fell on the stone slab and shattered.
The third master staggered away a few maids, hurriedly climbed the building in front of the gate, and looked at the front of the door, the scene almost made him faint, thanks to the help of the family.
I saw a young man taking the lead, standing in front of the gate of Li's house, and there were no less than 100 people densely piled up behind him, all of them holding farm tools, wooden sticks and iron plowshares, everyone's expression was indifferent, seeing the village chief Li popping his head, the expression seemed to be about to eat him Li Laosan.
"Ladies and gentlemen... Guys, this is..."
Li Laosan was so frightened that he couldn't even speak continuously, and it took a long time for him to breathe, and what he was worried about day and night finally happened. The big families and ignorant villagers in the village are finally going to deal with their clever village chief.
He knew that this riot was not easy to deal with.
There was a commotion in the crowd for a few moments, and I saw that the young man spoke, and his voice was thick and conveyed.
"Village Chief, you can recognize me."
Li Dingyan, the village head, suddenly felt a fire of ignorance in his heart. Finally, his fear evolved into boundless anger, all poured out on Sun Qi's head.
"The eldest son of the Sun family, you are going to rebel, what crime should you be guilty of gathering people to besiege the village chief's house for no reason?"
Li Neng, the village head, was mixed up with the position of village head, and he was not an idle person, so he immediately moved out of the idea of respecting the monarch and suppressed Sun Qi.
Sun Qi is a soul who has accepted new ideas, and he is prepared today.
First of all, Sun Chao and the transport team collected the remaining people from house to house, and gathered them all in the square with Sun Qi's fame.
"Folks, it is our misfortune that the locust plague is bumped into a drought now, but the village chief Li, as an official of the imperial court, has privately collected relief from the imperial court, and he does not look like a parent official, he is completely a robber.....
This can only be said by Sun Qi, and everyone was still a little afraid when he started to say it, after all, the feudal shackles were firm, so that everyone dared to be angry and did not dare to speak out about the behavior of the village chief Li, and now it was difficult to stand up and dare to resist, and he was afraid to take the lead in a fight, so he echoed it at the moment.
"Besides, my son and grandson Qi already have a clue about the method of drought relief and disaster relief, we just need to go to the village chief Li to ask for relief food to support the disaster relief method until the disaster relief method is completed."
"Today, we will go to the village chief Li to ask for justice, so that he knows that we ordinary people are not easy to bully."
"Okay."
"Okay."
..............
So, there was this later scene.
"Village Chief, what crime should you be guilty of embezzling the imperial court's relief grain?"
Sun Qi knew how to restrain these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and immediately pointed to his heart and poked at the pain of the village chief Li.
Sure enough, on the building, the village chief Li Wenyan's color changed, as if he was startling a snake, he stroked his three-foot white beard, and said: "This... This, the eldest son of the Sun family, you have the evidence to slander the official, this crime is not small. ”
Who knew that Sun Qi laughed out loud: "Everyone knows that your village chief Li Yueyue's salary is three taels of silver, but.... Not only are you willing to spend two hundred taels of silver to buy a small wooden donkey, but you also spend a lot of money to go to Caiyun Pavilion to order splendid clothes, this kind of wealth is not something that can be solved by three taels of silver, are you right, Sister Caiyun? ”
Hearing the sound, a woman walked out from behind Sun Qi, and it was Zhang Caiyun, the proprietress of Caiyun Pavilion.
"What Sun Gongzi said is true, the village elder made a silk silk dress in this pavilion, which is worth more than three hundred taels."
Zhang Caiyun was serious and corroborated Sun Qi, and Li San immediately made no sound, like a balloon that had leaked air, wilted.
"You, the village chief of Wang Ba, my old king could have been divided into three buckets of rice, but you made one bucket."
Listening to the angry roars of the villagers, the blacksmith king had already begun to slam the door with a hammer, making a thumping sound.
"What are your plans, you, you, and these untouchables?"
Village Chief Li didn't bother with this issue anymore, and went straight to the point.
Sun Qi was also unambiguous, straightforward, poking at the village chief Li's heart word by word, and poking at his life word by word.
"I want the village elder to open a warehouse to release grain, otherwise Xiaosheng will be unkind."
The village chief was trembling with anger, everyone knew that it was not easy to pluck this iron rooster.
"Why are you..."
When Li Sangang wanted to say why he ordered me, he was ruthlessly interrupted by Sun Qi in the next second.
"I can deal with this drought and locust plague, and the village elders can only ask for peace behind closed doors."
When the village chief heard this, his old body shook three times, and then he began to laugh uncontrollably, like a frog croaking at the bottom of a well. Who doesn't know that the court can't do anything about this disaster,
"The eldest son of your grandson is capable, I will serve the scissors, toothbrushes and wooden donkeys you made, but if you say that you can manage this disaster, my old Li doesn't believe it."
The village chief directly denied that it was impossible, and the people were excited and began to throw stones and clods of soil at Li San's house.
"What if I could?"
Sun Qi showed a smile and said confidently.
"If Sun Gongzi can deal with this drought and locust plague, then Lao Li and I are willing to give all the surplus grain at home, and kowtow to Sun Gongzi three times in front of all the villagers, if you can't..."
Village Chief Li showed a wicked smile, and his narrow eyes flashed. This is obviously impossible, and the young man is easy to be angry.
"If I can't, I'm willing to make cattle and horses for the village chief's family, and be a slave for the rest of my life."
Sun Qi was straightforward and unambiguous. The village chief laughed when he heard this, and clapped his hands in agreement.
Finally, a cool breeze blew, but people only felt a heat and dryness, and the heat in their hearts was more terrible than the disaster.
"Qi'er, don't be stupid."
Sun Chao and Chang Xinyan were shocked.
"Qi'er, don't do things that you are not sure about."
Mr. Tea tried his best to persuade him, and Whitebeard shook with anger.
"Sun Gongzi."
Zhang Caiyun looked worried, but Sun Qi's words had already been spoken, like water spilled out, which could not be taken back.
"Daddy, I don't want my brother to be a slave to that bad old man, woo woo."
Sun Die cried loudly on the side, pulling Sun Qi's sleeve and refusing to let go, Sun Wenlong just quietly stroked his sister's hair.
"Brother Qi, what nonsense to talk about with this old guy, I will listen to you, if you agree, I will directly smash open the door of this old guy with everyone, go in and get the food out."
Looking at the expected eyes of Zhang Tiezhu and the Blacksmith King, Sun Qi shook his head and continued to argue with Li San: "We are limited to one month, and after one month, whether we can govern or not, we will know." ”
The villagers whispered one after another, not quite believing Sun Qi's bold words, a few years ago, there was a big flood, and the imperial court sent an intellectual figure from the Ministry of Industry to relieve the disaster, but it was still to no avail, and there was nothing to do about it when they saw several children being washed away by the flood.
"Then it's still a month away, take your people with you, get out!"
The sun shone on the face of the village chief, Li, and set him off like a demon.
The village chief Li laughed uncontrollably, extremely arrogant, he thought that this was already a sure thing, Sun Qi must come to the house to be a slave, he only needed to humiliate this genius at that time, and then squeeze out all the aura in this genius's mind, he would be satisfied.
At the end of the song, Sun Qi fought with the village chief Li in front of the whole village, although the whole village was not optimistic, and they were silently sad for this genius, but only one person believed that this thing was possible, this is Sun Qi, after all, feudalism can never be the enemy of science.
