Chapter 4 Knocking on the bone and sucking the marrow

Chao Gai took Chao Yong to greet a few acquaintance squires, and when he didn't stand for long, he saw Zhixian walking out with a white-faced bearded father-in-law.

When the squires saw that the county was accompanied by the envoy of the Kutian Office, they greeted each other.

But the father-in-law only glanced at the people in the hall, and did not answer, so he swaggered and sat down on the main seat.

Chao Yong couldn't help but look at the eunuch sitting in the lobby curiously, although he had seen a lot of "eunuchs" on TV in later generations, but this real eunuch was the first time he had seen it, so he naturally had to take a good look.

The face is white and beardless, less masculine of men, more feminine women, and no charm of later generations of Thai ladyboys, it can only be said that it is neither male nor female, which makes people look a little crazy.

Chao Yong shuddered and withdrew his attention.

The magistrate bent his waist and personally served a cup of tea to the father-in-law, and then said to everyone: "The matter of Kutian, the county has been notified before, and you must have brought the title deed." Master Wang, you go and collect them all. ”

Although the squires were reluctant, the public land was famous, and they were forced to bring the title deed because of their silver might.

A few squires who said that they had a lot of filial piety to the magistrate originally had some ideas, but they hinted at the magistrate a few times, and saw that he ignored him completely, just carefully serving the father-in-law, and did not dare to make a mistake, so he had to hand over the title deed in full.

"My lord, the title deed is complete."

After a while, the master collected the title deed and handed it over to the magistrate.

The squires watched the magistrate hand over the title deed to the eunuch again, and knew that the land had nothing to do with them anymore.

After several generations of accumulation, it was all over again, and several elderly squires seemed to be sucked away from their backbones in an instant, and they were crumbling.

Chao Yong watched everyone's reaction, and couldn't help sighing, it seems that spending money to buy peace has been inevitable throughout the ages.

The father-in-law took the land deed, then put down the shelf, raised his eyes to look at everyone, and said softly: "It seems that Huang Zhixian is really meritorious in education, and you and other people also know the majesty of the imperial court, which saves our family a lot of things." This time, the 800-mile radius of this Liangshan water is owned by the public field, and the things on the ground are naturally also owned by the public field. Our family will wait for you for three more days, and after the third day, the public field office should send someone to take over your house in order to manage the nearby public land. ”

A squire, whose heart was like blood, heard that the house was still to be expropriated, and suddenly he couldn't hold it anymore, knelt on the ground, and pleaded: "The adults are aware that the small generations live here, and the adults are saying that they want to expropriate our ancestral homes, don't they want us to leave our hometowns." I hope that the adults will take back their lives. ”

Previously, the county official document did not say anything about the house, and everyone originally thought that if they donated the land, they could keep the peace, but they didn't expect the public land to be so insatiable, and they wanted to take away everyone's ancestral house. Immediately they all knelt on the ground and pleaded.

Chao Yong saw a hint of anger flashing on Chao Gai's face, and hurriedly pulled Chao Gai's sleeve and bowed down behind everyone.

Chao Yong has not fully integrated himself into this era, so he has been watching it as a TV series, naturally a bystander, and said in a low voice: "Daddy, calm your anger, this matter is not without a turning point." ”

When Chao Gai heard this, he was surprised: "Why did Yong'er say this? ”

"If this matter is as irreparable as that of Nakutian, the county will definitely notify you immediately, and it will save a lot of time, so why bother talking here."

"And what do you say they do?"

Chao Gai also felt justified when he heard it, and looked at his son, who was much smarter, and felt much less sad and angry when his family's fields were taken away.

Now the world is getting more and more chaotic, although there is no land, his Chao family still has a lot of money, but this public is more vicious than the grass on the rivers and lakes, and he often kills people for money. If Chao Yong is blindly reckless and impulsive, Chao Gai is really worried that he will ruin the Chao family's family business in the future.

"In my opinion, they are just trying to cheat some money, Daddy, let's try it."

Chao Gai saw that Chao Yong was talking about the Tao, nodded, and said in a loud voice: "If my lord can save me from the pain of leaving my hometown, Chao Gai is willing to pay 500 yuan, please choose another place to build a house and manage it." ”

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly followed and said, "I'm willing to pay." ”

The father-in-law listened to the crowd crying for a while, and he was already impatient, and when he saw that everyone finally came to his senses, he pinched an orchid finger, raised a finger, and said sharply: "Our family is not trying to embarrass you, but this is the rule of the public field, and the management of the public field also needs a house." It's just that it costs a lot to build a new house, and I'm afraid that 500 yuan is not enough. 1,000 guan, if you can make a full 1,000 guan, our family will take care of one or two for you, and choose another place to build a house. ”

At that time, people still attached more importance to ancestral property, and they were all rich people in the countryside who were accustomed to comfort, and after eating this trench, they were no longer willing to leave their hometowns to buy houses and fields.

Moreover, the roads are not smooth and the migration is not safe.

There was room for manoeuvre when I listened, and I immediately said yes.

However, as soon as he said, the squires handed over the money in full, so that the house was safe, and the province also had extraneous branches, and there were changes.

Chao Yong returned to his previous life, working hard every time he was fighting, dancing with a gun and a stick.

This said, when Chao Yong was resting, Chao Gai came over and said: "Yong'er, you used to be noisy to go to the rivers and lakes, why haven't you seen you recently?" ”

"The child used to be young and knowledgeable, and he thought that with a little strength, he could make a great reputation. Now the strength has surpassed Daddy, but it is difficult to win Daddy, so I know the importance of boxing. Therefore, during this time, the child has been practicing hard boxing, and he will make a name for himself in the future. ”

Chao Gai saw that what his son said was the way, and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, my father has been paying attention to you these days." Although your fist stick is only getting started, with your strength, it is enough to protect yourself. There are no very good bankers in the village, and it is no longer of much use to practice with them. Dad intends to let you go for a walk on the rivers and lakes and meet heroes from all walks of life, firstly, to improve your skills, and secondly, to make more confidants and brothers. ”

Chao Yong knew at this time that most of his family's grass would be staged, and without the bulk income of land, there were many people on the village, and it would cost a lot of money to eat and wear.

In addition, Chao Gai is famous for his righteousness and wealth, and there are many people who come to visit. Every time Chao Gai will be entertained with wine and meat, and he will send a plate of entanglement before leaving, which can be described as a very expensive one.

Bai Sheng, who robbed the Birth Gang together in the Water Margin, and He Qing, who recognized Chao Gai under the Huang Ni Gang, both came to Chao Gai Zhuang to mix wine and rice.

Although the Chao family has saved a lot of furniture, they can't afford to toss like this.

When there is no way to continue, if the birth gang is sent to the door, Chao Gai still has to take it for his own use, and the result after that will probably not change. After all, many belongings are not easy to transport, and even if the official can't catch Bai Sheng, there are always traces to follow.

Chao Yong wanted to change Na Jingkang's shame, so naturally he wouldn't remind Chao Gai, but the pace of marrying Haojie was about to speed up.

In the Water Margin, Song Jiang didn't just take a lot of leaders up the mountain on the rivers and lakes, and then slowly erected Chao Gai, so that Chao Gai couldn't get a team of his own henchmen in Zengtou City in the end, and died under the arrow inexplicably.

Chao Yong wanted to go out and get acquainted with some heroes, so as to lay the foundation for the Hou Zhanshan to be the king and unveil the rod, but he had just crossed the insecurity and lacked an opportunity. ”

"Okay, then you go and talk to your mother, and Ming Yu will take Chao San for a walk in the state capitals of Jingdong. Chao Sanda followed the housekeeper through the state, and only returned to the village over the years, and he knew a lot about the customs of various places, so it was more convenient to take him. If you encounter any tricky things in the rivers and lakes, I still have a slight name in the rivers and lakes, and it will not be too difficult for you to report my name. ”
