"Your Excellency, our troops arrived on time, please review." Outside Chenjiazhuang, a group of Franco-machine soldiers were fully armored, carrying muskets and spears in their hands, and Simang stood in front of the team with a proud face.

He does have reason to be proud, the land grant of the artillery factory has reached eight hectares, and he has also obtained a lot of orders in Lisbon. As long as the huge market of Daming is opened in the future, this cannon factory will be a treasure that will lay golden eggs.

In Macau, there is no longer any force that can contradict him, and merchants from the East and the West have to find him Simang as a comprador if they want to do business with the Ming Dynasty. He made a lot of money just by charging fees in the middle. The former doubled his wealth just by doing the tribute satin business, Li Yanqing was a little favor, how could he not help.

Most of the 200 foreign soldiers he brought with him were mercenaries who had come to Macao to find food. I heard that Xiangshan County was a good foreign soldier, and many outlaws in Southeast Asia went to Macao to try their luck. This force is also quite usable, and once a division, Simão can take a cut of it. He hoped in his heart that he could continue to do this mercenary business in the future, and this time he pulled it out and showed it in front of Li Yanqing.

Seeing this foreign soldier, those patriarchs felt like a bucket to draw water. This magistrate is really a ruthless person, and he actually transferred all the foreign soldiers. Looking at this posture, he must be killed, if he runs with Chen Rongtai, I am afraid that he will not escape death. This foreign soldier is not easy to deal with, look at this style is an elite soldier, which is the farmer can resist?

Chen Rongtai ignored his advanced age, moved a ladder to the wall, and when he saw it, he also felt that it was dark in front of him. Hundreds of children of the Shidu clan, holding hoes and sticks in their hands, lined up outside. And the foreign soldiers were holding muskets. Pointing to his side, and finally the public of Xiangshan County. There they shouted, and behold. I don't know when I'm going to attack the village.

"Good dog thief, is this to kill the Chen family? The old man was not afraid of him. I want to see if I have committed any crimes, and whether he dares to bring troops to fight my Zhuangzi. ”

What he said in his mouth was hard, but he didn't have any bottom in his heart. Originally, their own earthen cannons were collected by the imperial court, and there were guns, cannons and hard bows on this side.

In terms of defense, this Chenjiazhuang does not lose to Liangjiazhuang. But the problem is. What's the point of that? The defense of Crab Island is not stronger than any other, but it was still opened by the official army, and everyone pulled it out and beheaded? Do you want to follow in the footsteps of the old crab and be dragged by the government to cut it?

"Those Jianghu people, why haven't they been yet?" He scolded those heroes countless times in his heart, and he had the heart to go out to confess his guilt and admit defeat, but he never made up his mind. "Let's see, I want to see if he dares to take foreign soldiers. Come against me, innocent gentleman. ”

Li Yanqing did not give the order to attack, but ordered someone to carry the Taishi chair over and sit down under the tree himself. He ordered someone to put up an umbrella cover, and then sent a few loud men. Take the gong and shout around.

"I heard that there are strong fish and meat in the valley, and the township is doing evil and oppressing the good people. Poison the township. The grandfather worked on the spot and tried grievances. All those who have been wronged. You can come under the big tree to file a complaint, no matter how big the case is. The master can make all the decisions for you. If someone owes you a debt, you can come to the grandfather for support. ”

These public voices were high, and the gongs were loud, and Chen Rongtai could hear them clearly on the wall. A chill in his heart, "The dog official used a good method, he is trying to kill me." ”

Chen Wangzong helped his grandfather down the ladder and comforted: "Grandpa, don't worry, our Chen family is here to accumulate virtue and do good, and the neighbors are too late to thank us, how can they go to the yamen to sue?" If you put your heart in your belly, no one will go to the dog officer to sue you. ”

Chen Rongtai couldn't help shaking his head: "Our family has a big business, and it is inevitable that there will be a few unworthy descendants." Besides, what do these villagers know, they may be deceived by those officials, and they will fall for the tricks of the dog officials. It's a pity that this is a conspiracy, not a conspiracy, and we don't even have a solution. Come on, find a few people on the wall and show me, see how many people there are, and who dares to complain. ”

Seeing this method, the patriarch of the ten capitals also knew that it was powerful, and knew that this official was originally going to rely on the general trend to win, and he would come to reduce the ten meetings with one force. When the time comes, under the banner of eliminating harm for the people, to put it mildly, it is said that it is fought with foreign soldiers, or it is bombarded with artillery, and it is difficult for the court to say anything about him. It's not good, this Chen family will be turned into some kind of conspiracy and rebellion by him, after all, his eldest grandson was cut down because of Tong Bailian.

After about half an hour, he saw many people coming from all over the country, but they were only standing at a distance and pointing under the trees. There are no people living in this Chenjiazhuang, and only the children of the family are strong, and the other tenant farmers are outside.

Seeing that this person was gathering more and more, those public officials had the intention to pull out their weapons, but Li Yanqing waved his hand, "It doesn't have to be like this." Today, the official has come to seek justice for them, and he is not afraid of them. ”

Liang Ruimin said: "Master, these people have rented the Chen family's land for generations to plant, and they can only survive to this day by relying on the Chen family's land. You let them sue Chen Rongtai, this kind heart, I'm just afraid that they may not understand. ”

"Elder Liang, don't worry, I'm sure of this, and I guarantee that there will be no fewer people who complain."

Liang Ruimin suddenly understood, thinking that this official had clever means and had already ambushed his own people in advance, and when the time came, someone would come to sing this double reed, but there was no need to find someone by himself. At this moment, I saw a man in his twenties, mixed with alcohol, came to the tree, kowtowed, and saluted:

"Master, please call the shots for the villain. My family originally had 20 acres of land, and life was good. The villain was lured by Chen Rongtai's old dog to gamble, and he had no money in his hand at that time, so he had to pawn the field to Chen Rongtai. It was twenty acres of high-quality land, but he only paid the price of fifteen taels of silver, what is the difference between this and Ming robbery. Afterwards I changed my fortune and borrowed twenty taels of silver to redeem it, but he refused to pay me back. said that it was to increase interest, and I only borrowed fifteen taels for this interest, but it became thirty taels. In the end, this land was born into him, and I hope that the master will make the decision for me. ”

Everyone listened in the back and discussed: "This afterlife is our valley character, how can you look at it?" ”

"Brother, the person I knew in the next life was an idler who grew up in the county, where did he get the twenty acres of land to sell to Master Chen, I think this is obviously a slander."

Li Yanqing looked solemn, "Oh? Is there such a thing? If this matter is true, this Chen Rongtai is too lawless, I must take care of this matter, I can't let the bullies oppress the good, accept it, and you will step aside. ”

"Brother, do you see that? This time, I think the county official intends to clean up Chen Yuanwai, who are we helping this time? ”

"You are confused, he brought so many people, no matter how you look at it this time, we have lost, we can only follow the winner, but we can't follow the Chen family to the black, let's go and sue quickly." (To be continued!)
