Chapter 81 Wanting to win the hearts of the people

The next day, it was not a good day, it was gloomy and depressing. But the entire Shahe Township is still like a huge machine, and it starts moving quickly.

Horse corpses, swords and soldiers were distributed to the villagers. As they go, either further processing or collecting for later use, it's all their own business!

Wen Chouqi is supervising another rather important matter, the compensation of the casualties. First and foremost is the funeral of the dead!

Wen Chou gathered the 109 villagers related to him to hold a great funeral ceremony, of course, it was not only these 109 villagers who came to participate, but also those who were slightly famous in Shahe Township were invited! Among them are the subordinate officials in the township, the officers in the army, and the families of the wealthy families in the township.

The burial site was chosen on a white field in the northeast of Hongo, which was relatively far away from thieves. These soldiers made a great contribution to the village's defense against bandits during their lifetimes, and they must no longer be harassed by bandits after their deaths.

The wooden coffins were temporarily gathered from all the households in the township, after all, the summer had just passed, and the remains of these soldiers could not be stored for long! It's better to be buried early for safety! The 109 wooden coffins were buried peacefully in the solemn eyes of the villagers, and the gloomy sky also fell, and the light rain made such a bleak atmosphere even heavier.

The whole funeral ceremony lasted for nearly a morning, and the stonemasons returned the small stone tablets that had already been engraved with the deeds of his life one by one, which made the hearts of the villagers who participated in this ceremony surge. Of course, these rich families are not only invited because they are quite famous in their hometown, but also because they are 'rich'.

"Gentlemen, these hundred and nine warriors died for the safety of our country, full of righteousness, if there is no sacrifice for them, there is the safety of our now? Not to mention that it will ruin the family, but exile in the opposition is certain! Therefore, their credit is not small, and they deserve to be worshiped by me. This is what Wen Chou said at the funeral ceremony, not only to comfort the hearts of the 109 villagers, but also to vaccinate these rich families in the future.

With so many casualties this time, thousands of dollars per person, it is not a small amount! He can't take it out on his own! Of course, you have to think of another way, the county, the county, there is no need to count on it, they are still too busy to take care of themselves, how can they give Wen Chou some help? So Wen Chou can only hit the rich in the township! Although this is not the first time that they have been stabbed, there is no way to do it. It's just that the recent increase in the population of Xin'an and the large increase in the population of the villagers has indeed benefited these rich families a lot, and it is not indispensable to take out some of them.

Afterwards, Wen Chou went to the homes of these rich families in person, knew them with reason, moved them with affection, and knocked out a total of 600,000 yuan from these rich families! This can solve the dilemma a little for Wen Chou, who is currently in a fiscal deficit! Moreover, during this visit, Wen Chou also revealed an idea! It is to form a caravan in Shahe Township! It is used to develop the hometown, and asked for the opinions of these rich patriarchs, after all, they are much stronger than Wen Chou in this aspect, although it has not been completely determined, but it can be regarded as giving these rich families a good message, it depends on whether they can grasp it or not.

After coming out of the majestic compound of the rich and wealthy families, Wen Chou immediately turned into the low and poor houses of the villagers and the villagers! The hundreds of thousands of dollars that had just arrived in his hands had not stayed long before he was distributed to the homes of the casualties by Wen Chou! One or two hundred households, Wen Chou searched one by one, although it was 5,000 yuan for the pension of the dead and 3,000 yuan for the seriously injured, but in Wen Chou's visit, there were often hundreds to thousands of more left! Whichever family is particularly poor will stay more, and whichever family is in a better situation, will leave less, but these families are all grateful to Wen Chou.

This is also the reason why Wen Chou is particularly close to the people, in these simple villagers' consciousness, how can the lord of an army, the slaughter of a township personally come to the house to ask for warmth, in this troubled times, the soldier is dead and dead, can fight for some tax exemptions for the family when he is alive, eat less at home, and he is already satisfied! So what else do you dare to ask for? What's more, Wen Chou also left thousands of money, what kind of 'pension' is it! Let them be even more impressed! This is not the end, there is also what Wen Chou promised, so that the orphans in the family can be enrolled in the school for free! All kinds of actions have made Wen Chou's status in the hearts of the villagers more important.

On this day, in order to comfort the home of the casualties, I came to Zhukou. After the search of the three families in the middle of the house, and when they were about to go to the next one, they saw that one of the courtyards, which should have been a grand courtyard, is now slightly dilapidated, and is located among many low-rise and poor houses, which is quite conspicuous.

"Chongzhi, this is the family that wanted to rob the people's daughter a few months ago, right?" Wen Chou took a look at the slightly dilapidated compound, and turned to ask the Xiangzuo Wang Chong beside him.

Wang Chong's eyes narrowed, he thought about it for a while, and said: "Exactly, the head of this family is named Zhu Yong, who usually dominates the house, and the people complain a lot, but because of his great strength, he doesn't dare to say much. It was only because there were too many things that came in that Wang Chong had to think about it a little before he remembered that there was still this family of township tyrants who had been wiped out.

"Oh, in this way, if I remember correctly, the cause of the incident was that a poor scholar here accused this Zhu Yongqiang of robbing his little girl!" Wen Chou said with interest.

"Exactly, this Hanmen scholar is named Jiang Hui, and he lives in the northwest of here, right?!" Wang Chong didn't know where Wen Chou's intention was, was it this Jiang Hui or his little daughter? Something uncertain.

"That's it, let's go, I'll pay a visit later." Wen Chou said, take a step forward now.

"Huh?" Wang Chong was surprised, he didn't expect Wen Chou to leave, after all, there were still several casualties who didn't visit! After reacting, he hurriedly walked a few steps and led the way for Wen Chou.

"It's nothing, it's just that Jiang Jun was promised that he would go to visit one or two in the future, but when he went back, he delayed the matter. There aren't many families to visit these days, so why not take advantage of this period of cause and effect? Wen Chou smiled.

"Wenjun, a promise of a daughter, I am being taught!" Wang Chong complimented.

"Hehe, in fact, there is one more thing, this is not the order of the township has not been properly arranged, and the scholars are more reluctant to waste time on educating these children, this Jiang Hui is a poor scholar, maybe he is still a suitable person." Wen Chou said with a smile again. These astronomical ugliness also caused Chen Ning, Jiang Hui and others to invite a few scholars, but most of these people held their own identities and did not want to do so. It made Wen Chou depressed for a while.

"It turns out that Wen Jun is still worried about this matter! If you want me to say, these scholars are too ignorant to lift! If it were me" Wang Chong also knew that Chen Ning and Jiang Xuan had repeatedly hit a wall, and then nagged.

"Chongzhi, you can't say that, after all, they all have some real talents, and they are proud of their capital. Besides, the remuneration we give to others is not enough to impress them, so it's no wonder that others. Wen Chou interrupted Wang Chong's nagging with a smile.
