Chapter 146: The Beginning of Prosperity

I traveled overnight and returned to Laosi City at about five o'clock the next morning.

The lights in Laosicheng and Longtang Town are bright, and countless women are busy on the Daping Dam at the west gate of Laosicheng...... The Wang family, who had already received the news of the big victory, made a sensation and worked all night, so that when these children came back, they could have a hot meal to eat.

When the night watchman struck the gong and shouted, "The head of the family triumphs, everyone go to the old city to greet him", in an instant, Longtang Town seemed to come to life, and the lights were lit up one after another, urging the family to get up quickly to see the lively sounds one after another, making Longtang Town soon crowded.

The sound of crackling firecrackers sounded, thousands of spectators applauded to welcome their relatives in triumph, and the laughter and laughter were particularly lively at this moment, and many people were particularly happy to see their relatives walking in the ranks alive.

But when those loot appeared in everyone's eyes, the audience's eyes were a little dull: how many years did the Wang family not get so much loot. It's one thing to listen to the old man talk about how it used to be, but it's another thing to see it with his own eyes.

Wang Shihua has never experienced the difficult days of the poor, and the so-called tatters in his eyes are such treasures in the eyes of the people: an extra bag of rice, mixed with grain, sweet potatoes, wild vegetables and other things, is enough for the whole family to support one more month; One more hoe can have one more laborer to dig the soil and open up the wasteland; With one more pot, you can stay up all night of pig food, and you can raise one or two more pigs; An extra quilt will allow the family to sleep warmly in winter...... These things are sometimes hard to buy even if you have money.

There are so many things that are distributed enough to benefit every household, and the thought of this instantly raises the enthusiasm of the audience to the highest. And those children who went out to fight were also full of proud smiles on their faces, and their heads were held high: no matter how desperate they fought and indulged outside, when they returned home, they consciously put away the ferocity of the wolf nature, revealing a warm and tender side, and they were all good sons, husbands, and fathers in the eyes of their families.

After eating breakfast lively, those who are close go home to sleep, and those who are far away fall asleep on the beds that have been prepared in Laosicheng or Longtang Town.

Others can sleep, but Wang Shihua can't, and he still has to preside over the ceremony of the war dead entering the Zhongyong Temple.

In this battle, the Wang family was wounded more than a dozen and two were killed...... After the monkey's subordinates underwent surgery in the Phoenix County Hospital, they had already sent someone back overnight to Yang Guangming to continue his treatment.

To tell the truth, tens of thousands of people fought and only two died, but they achieved such fruitful results, relatively speaking, it is nothing at all. In addition to being a little sad in the face of their relatives, Wang Shihua inevitably felt a little proud of the cleverness of his strategy.

At noon, under the construction of Uncle Tiger and others, Wang Shihua slept for more than an hour, and in the afternoon, he began to deal with the matter of rewarding again.

According to customs, and in order to calm people's hearts, the rewards are all sent down, and they are all sent by the head of the family to each village. But this time, Wang Shihua used the authority of his head of the family to forcibly stop the immediate distribution, and instead asked each village and village to send people to collect it, and the time was set at ten days later. In view of the fact that this is a delay and not a seizure, and Wang Shihua is strong, everyone can only agree.

Then he went to visit the wounded and instructed Yang Guangming to treat them with the best medicinal herbs...... I worked until ** o'clock in the evening, and then I went to sleep.

……

Early in the morning, Ah Xia closed her eyes and stretched comfortably, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Wang Shihua shirtless, sitting on the bed in a daze.

knows that Wang Shihua likes to be in a daze, but it is relatively rare to sit on the bed in a daze as soon as he wakes up.

Ah Xia pursed her lips and smiled, and then wanted to sneak out of bed, but woke up Wang Shihua. Wang Shihua hugged his chest from behind and asked, "Why don't you sleep well, get up and do something?" ”

"Master, look at it, it's seven o'clock now, and if you don't get up, the eldest sister should say that I am a vixen."

"She scolded you vixen?"

"No, though, that's what I thought. Giggle! Giggle! ”

Just when the two of them were warm, there was a knock on the door, and then Jiang Shoucheng's voice was heard: "Second lady, is the head of the family here?" ”

"It's Shoucheng, you wait a minute."

More than ten minutes later.

"Master of the family, this is the list of rewards, please take a look." Jiang Shoucheng put the thick stack of books in his arms on the table, respectfully took the tea handed over by Ah Xia, took a sip politely after thanking him, put it aside, picked up the top one and handed it to Wang Shihua.

Wang Shihua looked at it very carefully, there was nothing wrong, and he was very satisfied with Jiang Shoucheng's ability, signed and sealed.

Jiang Shoucheng picked up a notebook again and handed it over: "This is the list and information of the chief guards of each village and village, a total of eighteen. ”

This is a big deal, Wang Shihua didn't dare to be careless, and looked at it very carefully.

After reading it, he put it aside and asked, "I told you last night that I want each village to select two households to move to the new village according to the conditions, have you written a notice?" ”

Jiang Shoucheng took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it over.

Wang Shihua glanced at it and saw that it was written at the beginning: "The ancestors and the ancestors are above, the separation of things is full, and the division of people is full, which is right." Clan, want to ......"

When Wang Shihua heard this, his head hit, and he hurriedly stopped: "Shoucheng, you have accompanied me to high school, and you are not going to Beijing to take the exam, how can you write a notice and write classical Chinese, do you think those people who have not read can understand it?" ”

Jiang Shoucheng secretly glanced out, and whispered angrily: "Do you think I want to?" But my dad thinks that if he doesn't write like this, he won't be able to reflect the superior literary talent of the reader. ”

Wang Shihua rolled his eyes: Uncle Jiang is an old antique, he pays attention to the dignity and humility, and naturally loves this set, but you are my big housekeeper, why don't you understand my mind?

"Re-write, don't chew the words so long-windedly, just write vernacular." Wang Shihua glanced at him dissatisfiedly, and said: "The notice is for the people to see, if even they can't understand it, what is the use of what you write beautifully?" ”

"I've already written it." Jiang Shoucheng took out a folded piece of paper from his pocket, handed it to Wang Shihua, and said, "Wasn't it afraid that my father would come in just now?" ”

"Uncle Jiang is outside?"

"No, but, when I came over, I saw that he was very busy, and I guess I would look for you later."

Wang Shihua knew that Uncle Jiang was fighting wits and courage with those arms dealers, so he was naturally busy.

Looking carefully at the vernacular notice in his hand, Wang Shihua was very satisfied.

'Dear fathers and fellow villagers, we used to have little land and had to gather together crowded, but now, the head of the family has laid a large territory for everyone to distribute to everyone for farming, so it is necessary to draw two families from each village...... This time it is voluntary, and if it is not enough, it will be decided by lottery. If anyone dares to forcibly apportion, they can go to Lao Sicheng to find me Wang Shihua to complain, and I will definitely call the shots for everyone...... For the first three years, there was no charge for those who moved there, and the family was provided with farming tools and seeds, and each household was given 500 catties of rice a year......

This is also the reason why Wang Shihua wants to let the chief of the security department come to receive the reward in person after ten days, and he can ask them to hand in the list of people who want to move over.

"You see how good this is, although it is a bit long-winded, but as long as you find someone to read it, you will know what I am going to say." After Wang Shihua approved, he thought for a while and said: "Change the final compensation to the first year, each household will be compensated with 500 catties of rice, and in the next two years, each household will be compensated with 300 catties of rice...... You have to mobilize their enthusiasm, and you can't be lazy. ”

"Yes!"

In this way, after a busy morning, I finally finished dealing with these things.

After Jiang Shoucheng left, Wang Shihua stretched his waist, moved his muscles, rolled his eyes, and hurriedly slipped away.

As before, with more than a dozen guards, with hands behind their backs, they wandered around Longtang Town.

Although the Tian family withdrew, leaving the house empty, because of the unification of taxes, it became more prosperous after settling down. Seeing the crowds surging and the shouting one after another, Wang Shihua smiled very comfortably. It's just that those empty stores, because there is no Wang Shihua's speech, no one dares to speak, and it seems a little insufficient. Let Wang Shihua start thinking again: When the qiē is settled, he has to quickly deal with these shops and houses - no matter what, those dozens of shops have a lot of income every month just for rent, and they can't be wasted, and they can't afford to waste it.

Wang Shihua used two big victories to establish his position as the head of the family in the eyes of the Wang family. There is even news that the clansmen believe that the sincere prayers of more than ten generations of the Wang family have finally won the mercy of the eight great gods and the ancestors, so they sent Wang Shihua down to the earth and led the Wang family to rise, so that the Wang family can live a good life of eating rice at every meal. For such a topic that is conducive to the prestige of the head of the family, the family is naturally happy to see it, and even secretly contributes to it.

Seeing Wang Shihua coming, everyone saluted and greeted sincerely, this one grabbed two handfuls of melon seeds for Wang Shihua, and that one gave Wang Shihua a few fruits, Wang Shihua couldn't refuse, so he could only let the two dogs pay the bill while collecting it. But he never expected that there would be a girl who gave him a purse, and there was more than one. This thing represents the girl's affection, and it is also the beauty's respect and love for the hero, and she can't refuse, otherwise she will be suspected of pretending to be high. Wang Shihua could only search around with a scanner-like gaze as he picked it up: Zhang Cuiyun wouldn't be hiding in a corner, right?

Asked how the income was, and the answer that the income was much better than before, Wang Shihua was even happier than the vendor, and after taking care of the other party's business, he took a few pieces of stinky tofu and ate while walking; went over there to listen to the play, and saw that there were more people listening to the play than before, Wang Shihua happily clapped with everyone...... Isn't this what I want to fight with others outside like a shameless person?

After happily walking around, I suddenly saw a man named Hanako lying at the mouth of the alley to catch lice. Although it was clear at a glance that this person named Hanako was his own assassin dead, Wang Shihua had already stipulated that everyone should pay attention to hygiene, even if it was called Hanako, he had to take a bath once every three days. Of course, it cannot be treated differently, otherwise it is easy to arouse the suspicion of others.

walked over, kicked on the buttocks of the flower child, and said angrily: "I said that you should pay attention to hygiene and cleanliness, but you still dare to catch lice here?" Come two people, throw him into the river for me, and wash him well. ”

After cleaning up this called Huazi, Wang Shihua was in a better mood again, and continued to walk around with his hands behind his back.

In the end, he was bored, and he actually fought with a vendor selling oil baba for how much glutinous rice should be put in the oil baba, his face was red and his neck was thick, his sleeves were rolled up, and he almost started to do it, while the guards were accustomed to laughing and watching the excitement while eating oil baba.

At this time, a guard ran to report......
