"What do you mean by that, old gentleman?" Zhu Song asked with some curiosity. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Ugh." The old man sighed and said, "So that Gongzi knows that the people of our Wangjia Village have been hunting and selling firewood for a living for generations, but for so many years, the trees are no longer enough to supply the livelihood of the people of Wangjia Village, so most of the people in the village have gone to other capitals and counties to beg for a living, and now the village is full of old and young women and children, so ......"

"Aren't there any loggers in other villages?" Zhu Song asked.

"Yes, there are, but our Wangjia Village is the closest village to Mingyang Mountain in the Purple Mountain, and the other villages are either too far away or unfamiliar with the roads on the mountain."

The old man shook his head and said, "And last year, the current Long Live Lord issued an order that the foothills of the Purple Mountain should no longer be cut down indiscriminately, and if anyone dares to cut down indiscriminately, they will be arrested and imprisoned." ”

"......" Zhu Song was speechless for a moment, how could he not know that there was such a law in the imperial court?

Shaking his head, Zhu Song asked, "Then dare to ask the old man, how does your village make a living now?" ”

"The village is full of old and weak women and children, and those young children who go out to beg for a living will go back to the village regularly and bring back some daily necessities and fabrics for the elderly and weak women and children."

The old man shook the crutches in his hand and said, "It's just that the old people and children in the village, the work at home and in the fields, they have to do it, and we, the old men and the old women, have all become a drag." ”

Zhu Song didn't expect the life in Wangjia Village to be so embarrassing, this seems to be two worlds introduced by Zhu Huixuan?

Turning his head, he glared at Zhu Huixuan hatefully, and the meaning in those eyes was obvious: "If you kid can do it, if you don't know, you don't know, and you're making it up!" ”

Zhu Huixuan shrunk his neck and didn't dare to speak.

"Sir, haven't you ever thought about changing your way of living?" Zhu Song asked.

"A different way of living?" The old man froze for a moment when he heard this, then shook his head and said with a wry smile: "We, old men and wives, have already lived enough after living for such a long time, what's the point of changing the way of living?" ”

"Old gentleman, I heard that Hanwangzhuang near Yutang Village is being built, and it seems that there is a recruitment of workers over there."

Zhu Song thought for a while and said, "If you move to Yutang Village, you can help the soldiers and craftsmen in Hanwangzhuang to boil some hot water to drink, make some simple meals to eat, and have a place to live, and you can get some silver taels." In this way, you will be able to feed the children yourself, so why wait for the men to come out of the village? ”

The old man didn't expect this, after all, the old people pay attention to the fallen leaves and return to their roots, and it is really difficult for them to live in a different place.

However, the old man also understood that this son was definitely not here to buy Purple Mountain wood.

"Childe, what the hell are you here for?" The old man asked the doubts in his heart.

"To tell you the truth, I have taken a fancy to this forest, and I have already negotiated with the imperial court to build a hunting ground here."

Zhu Song grinned casually: "When the hunting ground is built, it will cause a lot of noise, and it will last for a while, so I want to move the whole village out of here." ”

Seeing that the expression on the old man's face was full of horror and anger, Zhu Song hurriedly continued:

"Of course, all of this must be approved by the imperial court. And in the future, the people of Wangjia Village will not be allowed to move out for no reason. In the next meeting, I will take out a sum of money to compensate every family in your Wangjia Village, and I will also go to King Han's Mansion for you, discuss with King Han, and find something to do for the old people and women in your village. ”

"This ......" The amount of information in Zhu Song's words is too large, and the direct one makes the old man confused. Forced.

"What, don't you want to?" Seeing the old man's expression, Zhu Huixuan preemptively said, "I'm Emperor Song...... Uncle Song didn't give you enough, don't be ignorant. Angered ......"

Syllable!

The little guy thought he could shoot Zhu Song's fart, but the fart slapped on the horse's leg and was directly slapped.

"Old man, I believe that a holy decree will be issued in these two days." Zhu Song pulled Zhu Huixuan and said, "If you decide to relocate, I will send someone to help you." Aoyama, let's go! ”

Dropping this sentence, Zhu Song didn't wait for the old man to reply, and took Zhu Huixuan and them to leave Wangjia Village.

……

Zhu Song and the others had just left Wangjia Village, and the sound of a big bell came from Wangjia Village.

The bell was placed at the entrance of the village, and it seems that it was used to summon the villagers to a meeting when there was an emergency in the village.

A house at the head of the village, the old man's house, was filled with thirty or forty men and women, young and old.

"Grandpa Wen, why did you call us here today?" A young man with a rather majestic appearance sat at the front and asked the old man.

According to the agreement of the young people of Wangjia Village, every time a young man goes to work in another state capital, county or county, there will always be one or two young and middle-aged men left, in case there is any accident in the village, and there is no middle-aged man to deal with it.

"Xiao Chu, that's it. I'm going to call you all over today......"

Wang Wen told the villagers in detail about meeting Zhu Song at the entrance of the village today, and then said: "You are all old people in the village, and the children who went out are all children here. The old man has called you here to hear your opinions. ”

"Brother Wen, I think that son is right, after all, the current Wangjia Village is no longer the original Wangjia Village."

An old man sitting next to Wang Chu was a little chubby, and his eyes were narrowed together when he smiled:

"If we just rely on those babies to feed us, what's the point of us living? It's better to listen to the son, which can also reduce the burden on the babies. ”

"Seventh brother, what you said is not right!" As soon as the chubby old man's voice fell, another silver-haired old woman said, "We have lived here all our lives, and we can't get old and leave here, right?" ”

"You can't say that, if what that prince said is true, the imperial court should have a holy decree soon."

The seventh brother retorted: "I, the lieutenant chief, have not been in vain for so many years, under the holy decree, that is the sky, and we must not be disobedient, otherwise, our entire Wangjia Village will be arrested." ”

"Yes, it's disrespectful to resist the will, but you're going to lose your head."

"At that time, the babies outside will also be implicated."

"If you want me to say, let's move!"

Brother Qi's words were like dropping a mine in a calm lake, which made the people in the village completely lively.

"Alright, alright, listen to me!" Seeing that the scene was a little unbearable, Wang Wen, who was at the front, screamed and slapped the table. "Today, the old man made a decision, this village, let's move!" (To be continued.) )
