Chapter 198 [Under the Heavy Reward, There Will Be Ingots]

With food and money from work, Lantian became popular, and even the market that had been extinct for many days was reopened. The businessman's sense of smell is the most sensitive, in the past, he did not dare to sell things in the disaster area, for fear of being robbed by the hungry victims, but now there is Bai Zuo has brought stability, more than a dozen counties near Lantian have grain distribution, not to mention, Lantian people can make money for work; These people can't just nibble on chestnut noodles and steamed buns every day when they have money, right? They will love the cheap pork and seasonal vegetables, and the fragrant tofu, and now even Koreans have learned how to make tofu, and it is said that there are also a few 'tofu Shih Tzu'.

Early in the morning, the market was crowded with people, making a 'clang' sound of copper coins hidden in their sleeves, and haggling with the merchants. Bai Zuo has brought us a good day, and the dog ~ Ri's intelligence officer said bad things about him's 'old man'? This matter was said by the county zun himself, and the county magistrate said that we Lantian people want to live a life to show those bastard guys, and the money earned from working in the Bai family can't be kept to marry a wife, and you have to eat meat if you should eat meat! Every family stuffed me with a big old bowl, and the fragrant carved rice should be piled up like a grave, and a large piece of fatty pork should be put on the table, and I would squat at the door every day to eat! There is rice and meat in every meal, do Liyang people have such days? Do the Yongdu people have it? We Lantian people are blessed!

With Bai Dong's prestige in Lantian now, now the Bai family has no problem walking sideways in Lantian, Du Zhi joked about the dog leftovers, saying that if you fall in love with the eldest girl of any family, you can directly snatch it as a daughter-in-law. At that time, the county will become blind, and the people of Lantian County will praise you for doing good deeds; How could the people of the Bai family rob people? It must be to save people, it must be that this girl is in a difficult family, or she is abused by her family or something. Mr. Dog Leftovers wants to save people from fire and water. It's like Bai Zuo saved us. Reason? The butt is crooked, what is the reason.

Of course, the dog leftover will not rob the big girl. He is a dedicated and intelligent person, in Lantian and in Baijiazhuang, his soul is still tied to that happy little grass

Sang Wazi is his biggest rival, and now he is a personal disciple of Lord Li Wei, and his future achievements are limitless; If he can't practice martial arts, he has to find a different way, to become a good helper of Ping An Lang, and he will have to go to school to study in the future. There will come a day. He will be qualified to marry Cao'er, and let the guy who knows how to dance knives and guns all day long cry.

Thinking of this, the dog leftover tightened the two white porcelain ear bottles tied to the horse, and rode the horse towards the county office

Looking at the back of the dog leftover from afar, Yuan Bao stopped timidly. She knew that this Mr. Dog Leftovers was a good person, and she remembered that on the first day of the Bai family's distribution of food, she was squeezed down by the crowd, and it was this Mr. Dog Leftovers who saved her, and after asking about her family's situation, he also gave her some more food.

The family is poor. The only brother was said to have been executed for desertion, so no one wanted to associate with her family. Even the two older sisters who had been married refused to go home. The mother went early, her father was sick in bed, only she was a weak woman who couldn't bear this family, the Bai family could save Lantian, but she couldn't save her family, she couldn't work, she couldn't work, and there was no way to come back with tinkling copper coins every day like the sons of the people next door, although they could white-collar two rations every day, they had to take out more than half of the medicine for their father

The roof leaked, but my cousin had to pour water in, saying that she was fifteen years old, and she should marry early and come back in exchange for a dowry, so that her father might still be saved. But Yuan Bao is not a fool, where can he get the dowry back when it comes to his cousin? And didn't Ribao say that? Bai Zuogen and Mr. Lu Yi are calling on the girls in Lantian to marry at 18 and give birth to dolls at the age of 20, but every time she asks her cousin like this, she will eat a whip, and her father can't get out of bed, and he can only shed tears when he sees her beaten, and he can't compete

Yuan Bao walked aimlessly in the market, looking at the hot steamed buns that had just come out of the pot and the fragrant mutton soup, I didn't know how many times he swallowed his saliva. But there were only the last two copper coins left on her body, which were still exchanged for rations, and she wanted to beg Lang Zhong, hoping that he could sell the medicine to her cheaper.

Soon she was pushed out of the pharmacy by Lang Zhong, and what the other party said was very difficult to hear, but Yuan Bao just smiled, and if she heard too many words, her heart died. Walking towards the city gate, the walls of Lantian are two feet high, so it must not be too painful to jump from it, right? Dad, my daughter is sorry for you, my daughter really can't hold on, rather than being sold by her cousin to the second fool's house in the neighboring village, Yuan Bao would rather die!

"Hey, whose woman is this, why can't she look at people when she walks?"

The sad ingots in their hearts didn't pay attention to the road, and hit their heads on people, and only then did they raise their heads in confusion when they heard people talking, and found that they had already walked to the city gate, and there were many people surrounding the city gate to 'listen' to the official's notice.

During the Warring States period, there was no custom of posting notices at the city gates, and the soldiers in charge of communication rode horses to spread throughout the city, and in the countryside and villages, the Libao sounded gongs to announce that since Bai Dong invented the aya paper, some important notices would be posted at the city gates. Today, the market in Lantian is reopened, and people from villages on all sides will pour into the city and post notices on the city gates, which can save manpower and material resources the most.

The people of the county government were reading aloud the contents of the notice, and there were many people who listened, but everyone was shaking their heads, and the ingots couldn't squeeze through for a while, and they couldn't understand it, so they listened to the people around them.

"Bai Zuo is the best nobleman I have ever seen, and he is the great benefactor of our Lantian people, if you say that you are in the fire and water for him, you shouldn't frown, but this matter is very difficult."

"That's right, girls marry with women, that's a rule that has been passed down for hundreds of years, it's a ceremony! How can it be said that it is violated? If the ancestors know the way, they will scold us to death. ”

"Didn't Bai Zuo say it, whose girl is willing to be married to eighteen in public, and conceived at the age of twenty, he will report to the government and present the family with a plaque of 'Gongshi and No.', guaranteeing that he can glorify his ancestors, and also said that in the future, our Lao Qin will implement the decree of eighteen marriages and twenty pregnant women in the whole country, and ah, the first one who is willing to respond, you can get a thousand dollars, it sounds good, and you have a title and money to earn. It's a pity that my daughter got married early and had a child, otherwise she would have to be the first to agree. ”

"Don't be stupid, Bai Zuo is naturally our great benefactor of Lantian, but the government can't believe it. My son was crippled on the battlefield with a leg missing, and if he had been rewarded with a thousand coins according to the rules of the government, three years have passed now, and I have never seen a single round of money. What kind of duke and first, Lao Qin's lowest title is not considered a nobleman, and he still has to pay taxes as before! You can't do anything that violates the rules of your ancestors. ”

"But no, girls are the ones who lose money, old man, I worked hard to raise my daughter to the age of fifteen, and I still expect to come back with some dowry as soon as possible, do you want me to raise it for another three years?"

"That's right, that's the truth! Let's disperse, let's disperse, it seems that Bai Zuo was deceived by the government, what a thousand dollars, where do we little Li people, have this blessing. ”

People talked about it, but none of them believed what the notice said, Yuan Bao bit his fingers and looked at the notice in a daze, unable to understand a word. Can you really get a thousand dollars? If the official family doesn't deceive people, there is hope for her father's illness, and she doesn't have to worry about being forced by her cousin to marry a second fool from a neighboring village.

"Boy, I said a long time ago that although the people of Lantian are thick, their wisdom is stupid. You worked hard to deceive 100,000 stone of grain from the Qi State, so you asked for a thousand duke titles from the king, and you rewarded the applicants with your own money, but you still couldn't win the trust of the Li people. This notice has been posted at the city gate for half a day, but there is no one who responds, so I think it is better to remove it as soon as possible."

Qin Yueren and Bai Dong stood side by side at the head of the city, looking at the Li Min who was talking below, and shook their heads again and again. These days, he has visited almost all the surrounding villages, how many times he has rejuvenated and cured other people's daughters, but when it comes to the matter of 'eldest daughter pilot', those Li Min all shake their heads, saying that the rules of their ancestors are unbreakable, especially afraid that their daughters will be laughed at if they can't marry and will waste their lives. In the eyes of these people, raising a daughter for one more year is equivalent to having a few more rats in the family, and the Book of Poetry says that rats are not a good thing.

"Mr. Lu is wrong. People are always curious, or for various reasons, there are always people who will be the first to try; And once someone tries, others will follow, how about making a bet if you don't believe it? Bai Dong looked at Qin Yueren with a smile: "Also, Duke Xu of Qi State voluntarily gave me 100,000 stone of grain, but it was not deceived by the kid." ”

"Who's going to bet on you? You cunning brat. ”

Qin Yue smiled, he was actually looking forward to the first person to stand up more than Bai Dong, this person should have a great merit, a public servant and a reward of thousands of dollars are less.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am what you call Bai Zuo. Folks, it is a great harm to the body for a girl to give birth to a baby before she is twenty, and you can't bear to watch your daughter suffer this pain and fight for her life? I assure you that the government will not deceive you, and those who respond will receive a knighthood bounty! Now the reward for the first responder has increased to 10,000 dollars! There are far fewer latecomers, only a reward of 100 dollars, right? That's why it's said, 'Walk by, don't miss it.'"

I heard that the young man in the city is Bai Zuogen, and the people below are all solemn, this is our great benefactor of Lantian, everyone can't believe it is only the national government, not Bai Zuogen. After hearing this, the Li people all laughed, Bai Zuo is different from ordinary nobles, how interesting are you listening to what people say, 'Walk by, don't miss it?' It tickles the heart when you hear it

"Bai Zuogen, I am willing! But is there really money to reward you? ”

Yuan Bao gritted her teeth, and finally stood up bravely, she was not afraid of death, what else was she afraid of? (To be continued......)
