Li Lianfu bolted the door and looked out nervously through the crack in the door. His wife, Liu, hid in the cellar under the bed with her children, and the two children were so frightened that they didn't dare to make a sound.

Li Lianfu saw a group of people coming towards his house through the crack in the door, and hurriedly came to the bed, and told his wife not to make a noise no matter what, and to close the cellar lid.

At this time, the gate had been slammed, and only one voice was heard yelling: "Li Lianfu, you dog. Day. Of, open the door quickly, don't come out again, old. I've ordered your house, open the door! Open the door! ”

The dust on the earthen wall was shaken by the sound of the door knocking.

Li Lianfu didn't dare to delay any longer, he hurriedly opened the door, and just walked to the door, there was a bang, the door had been kicked open, and Li Lianfu's forehead was slammed on the door panel, and blood flowed.

He covered his head with his hands, blood pouring from between his fingers. Li Lianfu didn't care about the pain, quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the person led by him and begged for mercy: "Please spare your life from the second master, the little one will not dare next time, the second master will spare his life." ”

The second master that Li Lianfu said in his mouth was Liu Er of Dongshuanghe Town, and he also raised a few gangsters under his command, who were vegetable tyrants in Dongshuanghe Town, and the nearby vegetable farmers must pay protection fees, and only after his consent can they go to Dongshuanghe Town to buy vegetables.

This Li Lianfu is an honest local vegetable farmer, his family is poor, and he can't afford to pay the protection fee, so he wants to secretly sell some vegetables for some money to buy firewood, rice, oil and salt.

Yesterday, he secretly sold a load of vegetables in exchange for a few copper plates, somehow, let this Liu Er know, threatened to destroy his whole family, this matter is well known in Dongshuanghe Town, Liu Er this time is to take Li Lianfu as an example, kill chickens and scare monkeys, and build a prestige for him in Dongshuanghe Town. Therefore, early in the morning, he came to the door with all the minions.

Liu Er crossed his waist, walked up to Li Lianfu, raised a kick, and kicked Li Lianfu in the chest, and Li Lianfu was kicked on his back facing the sky. Liu Er took a wooden stick from the hand of the little minion beside him, spit in the palm of his hand, and scolded: "How dare you fight with the old man. Son against today, do not discount your arm, old. The son is not surnamed Liu. ”

With that, he raised his stick and smashed it hard at Li Lianfu who was lying on the ground.

Li Lianfu saw that the stick was smashing, and quickly turned over, the stick hit his back hard, and he snorted.

Liu Er scolded: "You turtle. Sun, dare to hide from the second master, old. Zi has changed his mind, this time don't have an arm, I want your life! Liu Er aimed at the back of Li Lianfu's head and picked up the stick.

His rod was still in the air, and it hadn't fallen, but a human head had fallen. Liu Er's body was still standing, and a column of blood spurted out from his neck.

This head is obviously Liu Er's own.

I saw a man standing in front of the corpse, kicking the headless corpse in the chest, knocking it down on its back. The man wiped the blood from the sword in his hand on the corpse and inserted it into its scabbard.

When the minions who followed Liu Er saw this situation, they knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowing like chickens pecking rice and begging for mercy.

The person who came said coldly: "You guys, carry this Liu Er's body out." ”

Those minions dared to slack off, and hurriedly carried Liu Er's body out with their hands and feet.

The visitor glanced at Li Lianfu, who was still trembling on the ground, took out a few scattered pieces of silver from his pocket, bent down and put them into Li Lianfu's hand.

He picked up Liu Er's head from the ground and went out of the house.

Li Lianfu, who was lying on the ground, heard someone outside the house: "The village chief, the thief Liu Er has been killed." ”

I only heard a woman's voice say: "Liu Daxia, you have done a good job, this person is full of evil, and he deserves it." ”

Li Lianfu woke up like a dream, he grabbed the scattered silver, crawled with a roll, chased out the door, and saw a woman in red standing outside the door surrounded by everyone, Li Lianfu knelt in front of the woman in red at once, kowtowed again and again: "Thank you for saving your life, thank you for the benefactor, these small pieces of silver can never be accepted." ”

This woman in red is none other than the Red Lady. The red lady said: "Li Lianfu, don't be so polite, we have already learned that your family is in difficulty, this bit of silver, you can take it for the time being, buy some grain and rice, and save the emergency first." You are a well-known vegetable grower, if you want, go to Xincun to find me, my name is Mu Hongniang. ”

After that, the red lady said to Liu Xiangzhong beside her: "Hold these people, let's go." ”

Li Lianfu was stunned on the spot, thinking that he was dreaming, and he was still reminiscing about the words of the red lady, can he go to Xincun? Now there are ten miles and eight villages here, and he can't squeeze into it with a sharp head, but he didn't expect that this new village not only saved his life, but also let him go to the new village, and he felt as if he was in a dream.

He hurriedly went under the bed, lifted the lid of the cellar, and released his wife Liu and two children, and the family cried with joy.

On the streets of Dongshuanghe Town, there is a row of people kneeling, and the people in the town spit on them, these people are some hooligans and ruffians with a very bad reputation in the local area, and now they have been corrected out, punished and kneeling to show the public, on the wooden trunk in front, there are several bloody human heads, these are local bullies, who were killed on the spot, hanging their heads to show the public.

Xincun's action to fight and eliminate evil, with a thunderous momentum, leveled Dongshuanghe Town and the surrounding underworld forces, accompanied by the destruction of the Black Tiger Gang on the boundary of Dongshuanghe and the top three killings of the underworld in the rivers and lakes. The news of the death of the hand spread, and the ruffian bullies in Dongshuanghe Town were extinct. The road is avoided, and the security situation in Dongshuanghe Town can be called a model in the neighborhood.

The business office of Xincun has set up an office in Dongshuanghe Town, standardizing local buying and selling, requiring clear pricing, free buying and selling, and no interference, so as to ensure fair competition in the market. Miss Xu San had a keen sense of smell and quickly opened branches in Dongshuanghe Town, and under her influence, several large shops with whom she did business also quickly opened branches in Dongshuanghe Town.

This Dongshuanghe Town was originally a place with an excellent location and a prosperous business, but it was only because of Gu Batian's misdeeds, forcible occupation and forced sale, that it withered. Black. Except. Evil, action, completely uprooted the foundation of evil.

The stable environment, good management and open thinking have created a good business atmosphere for Dongshuanghe Town, and the surrounding merchants continue to flock to Dongshuanghe Town.

According to Yu Xiang's suggestion, the commercial law firm pays taxes on transactions explicitly, and the leading idea of tax payment is to protect vulnerable groups. According to estimates, the daily transaction volume between general and hawkers is less than two taels. Therefore, the tax threshold is two taels of silver, and one penny is drawn for every two taels of silver transactions, and less than two taels are not required to pay taxes.

The tax standard is transparent, and the tax evasion is found out, and those who are expelled from Dongshuanghe Town will never be allowed to do business in the town again.

With the thunderous action of the former of Xincun to crack down on gangsters and eliminate evil, everyone knows that Xincun will do what it says, and the rewards and punishments are clear.

Dongshuanghe soon became a well-known trading market, and some things that were not originally produced locally were also traded in Dongshuanghe Town. As a result, the vigorous development of the freight industry, hotel industry, and catering industry has been born, and Dongshuanghe Town has gradually entered a benign development track.

Yuelai Inn in Xincun, Dongshuanghe Town, opened, because of its thoughtful service, security in place, and the golden sign of Xincun, merchants who came and went quickly took this inn as the first choice for staying.

Xincun Yuelai Inn adopts standardized management, high service quality, but the price is above the middle, first-class security, quite favored by some powerful businesses, even some large commercial banks in Fucheng moved their headquarters to Dongshuanghe Town, and resides in Xincun Yuelai Inn.

Yuelai Inn bursts every day, many people can't live if they want to live, so they have to register first, and send someone to keep an eye on it, as long as someone checks out, immediately press the number to enter.

It is reasonable that the Xincun Yuelai Inn is full, but the Xincun marriage agency is full of people.

The Xincun Marriage Agency is located in a secluded place in the back street of Dongshuanghe Town, which also fully takes into account social customs, who is willing to find someone to marry a girl with great fanfare, is this unclear let people gossip.

This marriage agency is mainly aimed at unmarried men in Xincun, and Yu Xiang wants to let young people of marriageable age in Xincun settle down and work.

But I didn't expect that since the opening of this marriage agency, people from ten miles and eight villages have brought their own girls, let the matchmaker Aunt Zhang choose, everyone saw the new village guys on the street, all of them are spiritual, and the new village pension is also eye-catching, even if the man died on the battlefield, the pension he got was one hundred taels, even if the man died on the battlefield, the orphans and widows were raised by the new village, not to mention, there is so much money, who is not red. It is because the marriage agency is full, and surprisingly, some local squires, some even bring their daughters to register, and want to marry their daughters to the new village to find a backer for their future.

Besides, Yu Xiang, in the name of recuperating from injury, pushed things to the red lady, because the big and small things in the new village were handled by the red lady, and during Yu Xiang's recuperation, good news from all walks of life continued to come.

Xincun tea began to be canned, some merchants with a keen sense of smell took the initiative to come to the door, asking for a high price to buy canned tea, all of them were rejected by Miss Xu San, this batch of tea, high quality, exquisite packaging, even Miss Xu San is so knowledgeable that people are very rare.

After the sweet potato seedlings in the new village are planted, the fields are full of singing and singing, and there is a happy labor scene.

The poor households were originally afraid of planting sweet potatoes, but with the inspiration of large-scale planting in the new village, they knew that the planting of sweet potatoes in the new village must have a deep meaning, so they all wholeheartedly learned to plant sweet potatoes in the new village.

The poor old Xu Tou looked at his son these days, and couldn't help but smile on his face, feeling energetic in his heart. His son Duoshui learned sweet potato planting techniques diligently and became the number one technical expert in the village, and even the landlord's family, who had always looked down on him, also invited a lot of water to guide sweet potato planting, which made Lao Xu Tou feel that his face was bright. Listening to his son's meaning of a lot of water, the captain of the Xincun production brigade appreciated him very much, saying that he might join the new village, and the old Xu Tou said this when he met people, and his burden came to the door and wanted to learn sweet potato cultivation technology, but it was useless to have cultivation technology alone, and he couldn't get sweet potato seedlings.

Those rich households and squires were very opposed to planting sweet potatoes before, and when they saw that the new village was fully planted with sweet potatoes, they felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly applied to the new village for a quota for sweet potato planting. Only then did they know that the chief had been partial to the poor, and they all regretted that if they had insisted on planting more, they would definitely have been able to win some quotas.

Yu Xiang received good news all day long, and he was in a happy mood, and the injury was almost healed. It's just that he was thinking about Mu Xiaoqing and Jia Bin for a long time in his heart, anxiously waiting for their news.
