"Squeak", the heavy wooden door was opened by Xia Lu, and the absurdity in the courtyard of the mansion was temporarily put to an end, and everyone looked at the seven people who walked in. I saw that they were well-dressed, and although they looked a little dirty, they could still see their high prices. The leader and the young people around him looked like literati, but the five people who followed behind were strong and strong, and their waists were bulging, so they were not easy to mess with at first glance.

"Oh, I said how the magpie called Huan in the morning, it turned out that there were distinguished guests coming to the door, a few people please come in, the contemptible surname Fan, is the head of this house." Fan Dianyuan tiptoed over and greeted with a smile, this world must have sharp vision, these people are either rich or expensive, and they are not something that their little landlord can afford.

"Hello Mr. Fan, my name is Zhou Ren, I came from the south to do business, passing by here, I want to spend a night, and I won't live in vain, this is five taels of silver, please accept it Mr. Fan." Zhou Shuren and Fan Dianyuan were polite, Xiao Liu and a few guards looked around vigilantly, and then Fan Dianyuan pretended to excuse himself a few times, and after accepting the money, he asked people to take a few uncles into the living room, and then asked people to clean up two houses for guests to live in.

The yard was empty, Xia Lu trembled and touched the grain hoard, the flower branch was half lying on the ground, oops, oops, Xia Lu went up is a slap, and shouted in a low voice: "Stinky girl, you want to cuckold me!" ”

"I*amp; amp; ……*！ If it weren't for your mother and two children dying of hunger, I would have been bullied and beaten, you have no conscience! "Huazhi is not to be outdone, Xia Lu is a angry bag in front of him, he can only find some man's dignity in front of his wife, and Huazhi will endure the past on weekdays, but now he is angry, but his body is kicked by the old club, and it is inconvenient to quarrel with men. Xia Lu also felt guilty, scolded in a low voice, but picked up the flower branch and walked out.

About ten minutes later, Zhou Shuren and Fan Dianyuan negotiated the purchase of grain, fifty taels of silver for ten liters of millet and three catties of pork, such a price is outrageous. It's just that the world has made the price of food rise, and Fan Dianyuan is also a master who takes advantage of the fire to rob, plus Zhou Shuren is like an arrow, and he doesn't have the heart to argue more, anyway, it's the newspaper's money, and going back safely is the most important thing.

After settling down the guests, Fan Dianyuan ran to the back room, the landlord's wife had not yet fallen asleep, and glanced at Fan Dianyuan: "Old man, what are you busy doing, who is coming outside." Don't put anyone in at this time, but I've heard that the old Wang family in the next village was broken by ****, the food was snatched, and his daughter-in-law was ruined. ”

"Shit, that Wang Shimei is a shit, I persuaded him to buy a few more spears, but he didn't listen, it was too expensive. He also said that it costs money to hire a nursing home, so now it's okay. Nothing fell, all of them were snatched away, put me on me and hang myself directly! It's an iron fence, speaking of which, sir, I made a lot of money tonight, do you want to see it? Fan Dianyuan held the money bag and shook it in front of the landlord's wife. Immediately let the landlord's wife get up from the kang and stretched out her hand to take it.

"Boss, it's not good, there's a lot of people outside, and they're all starving ghosts. Let's take a look! "This is the voice of one of the nurses, and it is heart-rending.

"What is the ****'s blind barking, why did the dog bite the ground?" Fan Dianyuan walked out and scolded.

"Hey, those starving ghosts are coming to us for trouble, and there will be hundreds of people!" Fan Dianyuan shuddered after speaking, and shouts were already heard outside the compound.

"Master Fan, borrow some food, the villagers are dying of hunger!" There was endless despair in the rough voice, as if he would really die in the next moment, and the meaning of the crowd outside the compound was obvious, he starved to death, and he also had to drag the people of the Fan family's compound to be buried together.

"Hurry up and ask someone to clean up the guys, all go to the earthen wall, hurry up!" Fan Dianyuan was a little in a posture of imminent danger, and shouted at the current nurse, but he looked down on the nurse who stood there blankly, as if he was frightened, so he went up and kicked it to the ground, and only after the man got up and called someone.

In fact, most of the nursing homes have been awakened, and they all packed up and climbed the wall without shouting, under the reflection of the torches, Fan Dianyuan stood on the earthen wall, and saw that there were hundreds of people gathered in front of the earthen fort, and there were people constantly surrounding him in the distance, and the black rumbling was not clear, but there were always thousands of people.

"Hey, who should I be, isn't this the third child of the Dong family, what are you doing with so many people?" Fan Dianyuan was close to the people below, in fact, he was not a bandit, he was a fellow villager from ten miles and eight towns, some people were very familiar, Fan Dianyuan could be called by name, and when he saw Fan Dianyuan on weekdays, he had to call him a lowly tenant who was "master".

However, at this time, Fan Dianyuan didn't dare to put a big family on the shelf, it was this kind of person who broke the old Wang's family compound in the next village, and they were hungry, so it was hard to say whether they would take care of the old feelings.

"The old owner, the famine is too bad, the bark outside is all eaten wood, and the old owner is invited to do well, give some food to save his life, and the great kindness will never be forgotten!" The third child of the Dong family, who was in the lead, still politely begged, and the people behind him were already a little impatient, and they had a feeling that they were about to move towards the earth fort.

Counting on this earthen fort and twenty nurses, can they keep the family business? Fan Dianyuan was also weighing, the circumference of the earthen fort was more than 500 meters, surrounding the Fan family, and it was seven meters high, towering on the plain very eye-catching. However, the walls are made of adobe, and the thickness is enough, but the rain washes and the wind blows the sun, and the walls are pitted, and the people outside have to arch up desperately, even if they use their hands and feet to climb up.

Look at the trembling nursing home around them, these people are not outlaws, most of them are tenants of their own family, what kind of fighting has been there, that is, the level of killing a chicken and slaughtering a pig, the only deterrent is the five spears, one of his own sons is held, and the remaining four people have not shot a few times, and the effect of scaring people is greater.

Seeing that Fan Dianyuan didn't speak on the wall, the people below began to rush forward, and the third child of the Dong family couldn't hold back anymore, and shouted loudly: "Old boss, hurry up and give a sentence, if you don't say anything, the villagers can only offend!" ”

"Xia Lu, open the door, bolt the pillar, and lead people to cook for the villagers. The third child of the Dong family, let's talk about it, come in and have a full meal, you should go wherever you want, and you must not do evil in it! Fan Dianyuan stomped his feet and made up his mind, since he couldn't scare the victims outside at this time, he could only let them in, otherwise he would definitely not be able to please him.

The door opened, and the people outside walked in, Fan Dianyuan grabbed the bolt pillar and said in a low voice: "Go and find all our tenants nearby, not only can you cheapen these turtle grandsons, but also eat your own people, if the time comes, our own people will also have a foil." In addition, you go to Linying County to find Lu County Commander and ask him to bring someone to help, hurry up, don't let people see it! ”

Zhou Shuren and the other six people in the side room of the compound had not yet fallen asleep, and after hearing the movement outside, they converged into a house, listening to the movement as if there were hungry people outside who came to ask for food, but the nursing homes were nervous, and they had a hands-on posture.

Xiao Liu lay on the door, watching the movement outside through the gap, and the rest of the people looked vigilant. "Team leader, the owner of the Fan family has let the hungry people in, it seems that there is no way to fight, let's stay in the house, just in case." Xiao Liu said as he looked at the crowd pouring in the courtyard.

"Brother Liu, why don't we get out of here, how do I feel Maomao!" Xiao Xu said.

"Phew, don't let me look down on you Shanghainese, you're just cowardly, you were scared by such a little thing, and you didn't refine your guts after vomiting so much along the way?" Xiao Liu laughed and teased, which made the tense atmosphere in the room a little.

"Who says we Shanghainese are timid? It's no worse than you Hunan people in fighting, I'm thinking about our deputy editor Zhou! Xiao Xu retorted, but he did have a lot of courage, anyone who saw countless wild dogs gnawing on dead corpses, his courage would also become bigger, under the washing of bile, Xiao Xu felt that there was nothing to make him disgusting in the future, in Xiao Liu's words, "Spit wow wow and get used to it".

"Whew!" Zhou Shuren drew a match, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath and spit out the smoke ring, this is the last pack in his pocket, there are five left, Zhou Shuren is reluctant to smoke, one day a day.

"Wait and see, it's best to be safe and sound, if we are implicated-" Zhou Shuren was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Try not to hurt people if you can!" ”

Everyone knows what Zhou Shuren meant, in fact, what he is worried about is not the safety of himself and others, but the red eyes of a little hungry people, rushing in is not good for his own people, once the gun is fired, there will definitely be dead and injured hungry people, they are all forced, and no one wants to see that kind of situation.

What made Zhou Shuren, Xiao Liu and others confident was the weapons carried by these five guards. Each of them carried two "20-shot repeating pistols" and 150 rounds of ammunition, and the firepower that could be tilted in a short period of time was amazing, and each person also carried two grenades, which could be attacked and defended, even in the face of the siege of thousands of hungry people, they could retreat safely, and these were the main reasons why the group was able to arrive in Nanchang smoothly.
