Chapter 696: Chief
In this way, the whole village has been harmoniously integrated into the local society, and the head of this Chinese village is an old man surnamed Li, who was a sailor in the fleet that crossed the sea, and was quite popular, and took over the leadership of the entire settlement after the death of the ship's boss.

The whole village also developed faster under his leadership, thriving, just the day before yesterday, the respected Uncle Li because of his age, a sickness, suddenly returned to the light before he died, leaving behind the last words of "Tianhuang nobles come from the East China Sea, remember to remember" and then went west, and even a successor was not decided.
After Li Yang and Miss Haruko walked diagonally inland along the coast for about ten minutes, the shadow of a village in the distance came into view, which should not be yet time to eat, so there was no cooking smoke in the village, and because of the reason for looking for "Tianhuang noble", there was no one in the village.
But just looking at the scale of this village, because they are all bungalows, the momentum is not small, think about the ancient times there were only about 200 people in one mile, not to mention this overseas island, such a village of more than 2,000 people is really a large settlement.
Entering the village, some people who had been left behind quickly reported to several old people who were responsible for management, and all the people left behind in the village had crowded at the entrance of the village.
Before Li Yang could react, several old men had already stepped forward quickly, and one of them asked respectfully: "I don't know where the distinguished guest came from, I have never seen it before, how should I call it?" ā
"Heh, we are from the Dakang Empire in the East, just call me Li Yang, this is Miss Qingzi." Li Yang said bluntly. Whispers could be heard from the crowd.
After hearing this, the old man no longer dothered, but he strengthened the thoughts in the hearts of these people: why did there be such an astonishing prophecy before the old man died the day before yesterday, but the young man who had just come out was so mysterious and completely in line with that prophecy. Then everyone's hearts became even more awe-inspiring.
"Don't just stand and talk, welcome the guests into the village." Another old man hurriedly stood up and made a round, so a group of people waited to bring Li Yang and Miss Qingzi and others into the village, and the old man surnamed Wang who was the first to speak had to vacate several of his empty houses as temporary residences for Li Yang and Miss Qingzi, and the others brought the bedding and I prepared the dishes, chopsticks, tables and stools, and soon Li Yang and Qingzi's new home was complete with everything and everything.
What a warm and simple villager! Li Yang was very emotional, and then asked to go around the village. The crowd also slowly dispersed under the reprimand of several elders.
Miss Haruko's men were settled, and Li Yang and Miss Haruko walked together on the completely antique village paths, looking at the houses on the side of the road that were mostly thatched and bamboo, and most of the courtyards of these houses were sunned with fishing nets, and it seemed that fishing was the main livelihood of the people here.
Indeed, there were not many fields on the side of the road before entering the village just now, and the population of this village can almost be called a township, and those fields alone are definitely not enough to feed such a large population. Moreover, the Han people immigrated to this place, and as a vulnerable ethnic group, they had to live together to protect themselves, and it seems that life is not easy.
Li Yang carefully observed on the way, and also found an interesting problem, regardless of the old and new houses, but the roofs are mostly new, Li Yang, who grew up by the sea, knows that it seems that the impact of the typhoon on this village is also huge, but for the convenience of fishing, they have to live as close to the sea as possible, so the Chinese are definitely the most resilient people, from this fishing village can flourish under such difficult conditions to grow so strong.
As time passed, the sky gradually darkened, and the people who went out gradually returned to the village, and the village began to be lively for a while.
Many people who had stayed in the village before described to the people who went out the door the situation of discovering and welcoming back the "Tianhuang nobles" on the beach today, and they blew Li Yang down with a ball of purple gas, and when he looked at people, his eyes shot a terrifying golden light, and when he opened his mouth, there was a flood of bells, which shocked people's hearts, and he almost said that Li Yang had three heads and six arms. And Miss Haruko and her maid Xiaoqing were described by the villagers as fairies, because they had never seen such a beautiful girl in this village.
And the discussion did not last long, a lean man held a gong and drum in his hand, and shouted as he banged: "Tonight at the gathering in the drying field, the elders have something to announce, tonight at the gathering in the drying field, the elders have something to announce!" ā
From time to time, a woman laughed and said, "Little monkey, come to the house to drink saliva after passing the letter, see you cry so much that the corners of your mouth are foaming, hahaha." ā
Soon smoke rose in every household, and Li Yang was also reluctant to sit on the dining table of Uncle Wang's house.
Speaking of Uncle Wang's family, it can be regarded as a solid family in the village, with two sons and one daughter, the daughter has already been married, and the son Wang Tong and the second Wang Tie are both physically strong, on the fishing boat, on the field, and they can also help with the housework, so the life is not sad.
But in such a solid home, looking at the porridge and rice mixed with coarse grains and fine grains in the bowl, and feeling the sluggishness of the coarse wheat and brown rice sliding down his throat together, Li Yang still couldn't stand it.
Alas, once you have come, you will be safe, and the first task now is to adapt to life here, Li Yang warned himself in his heart.
Uncle Wang also found out that Li Yang and Miss Qingzi were uncomfortable, which strengthened his previous opinion in his heart, sure enough, it came from a rich and noble family, and precious rice has been added to tonight's porridge and rice, although this place is suitable for the growth of rice, but it is generally sold to rich families outside in exchange for more miscellaneous grains, but this noble guest is obviously still so difficult to swallow.
Uncle Wang said embarrassedly: "There is only one pig in the family, and the good has not grown, otherwise it will be slaughtered to welcome the guests." ā
"You might as well be polite, Mrs. Wang is polite." Li Yang hurriedly said politely, and hurriedly swallowed this bowl of multigrain porridge into his stomach after speaking, so as not to embarrass Uncle Wang.
After eating, a few people chatted for a while, and then came to the drying field at the west end of the village, which was made very flat, and could dry millet and seafood on weekdays, and it was also used as a gathering place for the whole village.
In this way, Li Yang, a man who fell from the sky, became the chief of this Han village, it is really pitiful to think about, he used to rule millions of square kilometers of the Dakang Empire, tens of millions of people, but now it is good, he rules a village of more than 2,000 people who are too poor to speak, the only thing that is more fortunate is that there is also an exotic beauty like Miss Qingzi to accompany him.
Sakuragi Haruko probably really fell in love with Li Yang at first sight, and when she arrived on the island, she took care of Li Yang meticulously, which made Li Yang sigh, sure enough, Japanese women are the ideal wives of men!
