[Happy holidays, friends!! 】

Although there is a guarantee from the government, the people will still be skeptical. It wasn't until Fan Jinyan ordered the soldiers to haul the crop seeds and the promised rice to the villages in ox carts, and propagated that everyone had a share, young and old. Only then did the people believe it, and they all rushed to put their own handprints on the agreement.

Fan Jinyan's act of making compensation in advance won the favor of the people in the surrounding villages, and a vigorous reclamation operation began quietly. Even Li Tong and Cheng Zhou were so hot that they asked for some seeds to go back for trial planting.

However, before Fan Jinyan was happy for a few days, there was news that two villages were fighting over a few acres of mountainous land, and several people died.

When Fan Jinyan ordered the people to kill, hundreds of people in the two villages were in full swing, and it was difficult to separate.

The young men went into battle with hoes and rakes, and many people were beaten to the head and did not admit defeat, and continued to scuffle together with their bare hands, their hands were injured, and their teeth were bitten, anyway, they were determined not to die.

The men bleed, and the women in their family were not far behind, and they had the strength to help on the side, grabbing their hair and tearing their clothes, which was much more energetic than the fights of women in later generations. The weaker ones, although they can't do it, their mouths are not idle, and they greet each other's ancestors one by one, and they don't repeat them in one go.

Not only Fan Jinyan, but all the soldiers were dumbfounded, it was common for villages to fight between each other over land and water, but they had never seen such a desperate death.

If nothing else, pull these peasants to the battlefield, which is definitely better than the regular army of the Ming Dynasty. Even these soldiers in Fan Jinyan's hands may not have these people who dare to fight for their lives. No matter how bad it is, let these women go to the border pass to hang around, maybe it will make the border pass peaceful for ten years.

Of course, Master Fan Dazhizhou didn't come to see the play, so he hurriedly called someone to stop him.

The result! Mao didn't work, the soldiers shouted for a long time, and no one had the intention of stopping. Obviously, both sides have killed each other.

Fan Jinyan was afraid that his people would be injured by mistake, so he withdrew them again.

How do you stop these pouting calves?

Suddenly, I saw two soldiers carrying muskets on their backs, which were the only two new muskets when I left Funiu Mountain. The sound of gunfire always wakes these people up!

Thinking of this, Fan Jinyan ordered the two soldiers to release their guns, of course, the muzzles of the guns were facing the sky. He's here to save people, not to kill people.

"Bang"

"Bang"

Two gunshots rang out in a row, instantly suppressing the shouts of killing and the high-pitched insults of the women. Suddenly, everyone stopped what they were doing, turned their heads, and looked at Fan Jinyan with a stunned expression.

At this time, the villagers who participated in the fight noticed that their group of people were surrounded by officers and soldiers, and the young man sitting there with an ugly face was the old man of Zhizhou.

After coming back to their senses, the villagers hurriedly threw away the murder weapon in their hands, knelt on the ground honestly, and reluctantly called, "I've seen Lord Zhizhou." ”

It was only at this time that Fan Jinyan breathed a sigh of relief, but he could be regarded as stopping, if his own soldiers were mixed in today, then soon the entire Yazhou would spread that Lord Zhizhou had set up arson and slaughtered the people. He will also be infamous as a dog officer.

Isn't it that simple?

He really Nima is a disaster star, and it is not peaceful to go anywhere.

As a person who has lived in the future society for more than 30 years, once something goes wrong, the first thing that comes to mind is to find the person responsible.

Unfortunately, the elders of the two villages also participated in the fight.

Fan Jinyan called the two over, one was a swarthy strong man in his thirties, and the other was a white-faced fat man who had shown his face in the Zhizhou Yamen a few days ago.

"Bang Bang"

called the two of them, Fan Jinyan didn't ask who was right and who was wrong, he raised his hand and slapped him twice, neither of them failed, and he received the slap firmly.

For his action, not only the village elders who were beaten were stunned, but even the villagers kneeling on the ground behind him were also at a loss.

What's going on? Don't ask, both of them fight?

"Do you know why this official beat you?" Fan said without being salty.

The two of them were puzzled and angry at the same time. However, he didn't show it, and he didn't say anything, just covered the five finger prints on his face with his hand.

Fan Jinyan sneered and continued: "As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, what kind of grudge do you have, do you have to kill you to death?" Even if there are any contradictions between the villagers, as a village elder, they don't want to try to mediate, and they are also involved in it, do you still have a royal law in your eyes? You can't mediate, don't you know the judgment of the Shangzhou government, so what's the use of the government? Today is a small punishment and a big commandment for you, if you don't repent, the king's law will not tolerate it. ”

Often at this time, there will always be people who come out to disagree, just like the scene in the movie, the old man in the swarthy village spoke, "My lord, if the government can call the shots, why are we like this?" ”

Fan Jinyan saw his indignant appearance, and knew what he was referring to, so he didn't care, and said with a smile: "That was before, since the official took office, the door of the Zhizhou Yamen will always be open to the people. No matter what comes across? This official will make decisions for you. ”

"Since the adults say this, the villain wants to know why the adults favor one over the other and favor Wujia Village?" The man continued to question.

Wujia Village refers to the village of white-faced fat people, and the whole village is surnamed Wu.

Fan Jinyan didn't care about the man's offense, and asked, "When did the official favor them?" Do you have a certificate? “

The swarthy man seemed to be about to break the jar, and continued: "Adults promote high-yield species, why don't you have my Lijia Village? Moreover, the people of his Wujia Village deceived people too much, and the wasteland was reclaimed to the boundary of my Lijia Village, and the water was cut off, saying that it was ordered by you, my lord, and they should give priority to using it."

After listening to the village elder surnamed Li, Fan Jinyan understood.

Due to limited resources, Fan Jinyan could not promote it throughout the state, so he could only select more than a dozen villages nearby. But when the problem came, Fan Jinyan not only ordered that all the reclaimed land should be owned by the villagers, but also distributed one stone of rice to each person during the trial planting, and families with a large population could receive several stones, or even more than ten stones, of grain. The villagers in other villages are already red-eyed, but they are not satisfied, in order to get more compensation in the future in case the new crop fails, the wasteland is reclaimed to other villages, isn't it nothing to look for?

For this kind of problem, Fan Jinyan also realized that the uneven distribution and people's greed. If a rule is not introduced, it is estimated that the situation in Lijia Village and Wujia Village is only the beginning, and it will even extend to the whole state in the future.

Thinking of this, Fan Jinyan said to the village elder surnamed Li: "Your opinion is accepted by the official and will be dealt with immediately, but this is not a reason why you can be unscrupulous and defy the royal law." ”
