Yue Yang walked quickly to the house where he had lived for decades, he skillfully walked to the head of the bed, and felt out the mobile phone under the pillow, when he pressed the mobile phone button, the mobile phone screen lit up, Yue Yang glanced at the mobile phone screen, and then stroked his chest and let out a long sigh.

"Fortunately, twelve days have passed, which means that the time passage of this time and space is synchronized with the time and space at the end of the Ming Dynasty, so there is no need to worry about time confusion after going back. But if I'm not here for a long time, will I attract thieves or cause trouble? ”

Thinking of this, Yue Yang's brows furrowed. Due to the suburban location of this house, there are no other residents around, but if it is not occupied for a long time, it may cause some unnecessary trouble. And the head of this house, that is, the original Yueyang's body has been destroyed by thunder, and the current Yueyang's body is only a twenty-year-old young man, that is to say, from a scientific point of view, this house has no blood relationship with Yueyang, if the original Yueyang does not appear within a certain period of time, the state will confiscate it. As soon as he thought of this, Yue Yang felt that his head was big.

"Forget it, this problem is not too urgent for at least half a year, and I will buy this house when the time comes." After thinking about it for a long time, Yue Yang simply put this question aside, he looked at the phone screen, it was already 4:35 in the morning, and Yue Yang was shocked in his heart.

"It's not good, it's time to go back, otherwise it will be bad if Sister Linglong doesn't see me when she gets up."

Yue Yang hurriedly ran out, then ran out of the room to the front of the courtyard to pick up a basin of water, and then took off the jade pendant from his neck and put it into the water, the bright moonlight reflected a ray of light through the water surface on the jade pendant, and these rays intertwined to form a small silver-white door. Yue Yang took a deep breath, and then stepped into this door, and when Yue Yang stepped into this door, this door disappeared into the air, along with Yue Yang and the basin of water on the ground......

As soon as the sky was bright, Yue Yang, who had just slept for less than an hour, was woken up by an urgent knock on the door in a daze.

"Bumper bang...... Bang bang bang ......"

Soon Yuling's gentle voice sounded in front: "Eh...... Come on...... Come on, who is outside, what should I do if I wake up the young master with such a rough hand? ”

"Sister Yuling, has the young master woken up?" An urgent voice sounded at the door, and Yue Yang could hear it, it was the voice of his scholar Shunbao.

"It's Shunbao, the young master hasn't gotten up yet, what are you doing knocking on the door early in the morning?" Yuling's gentle voice revealed the meaning of blame.

"Sister Yuling, no, early this morning, the people of the Wang family came to grab water from us again, and they also injured several people in our Yuejiazhuang! Now Master Hu is leading the guards and the people of the Wang family to confront each other by the river! After being told by Yuling, Shunbao's voice was much quieter, but hearing Yue Yang's ears was like a muffled thunder that made his heart beat violently.

"The people of the Wang family are here to grab water with us again!" This sentence made Yue Yang's heart surge.

"What, these guys from the Wang family, they almost beat our young master to death last time in Yingzhou City, and now they are coming to grab water from us again, they are too bullying!" Yulong's voice also rang out.

Listening to the indignant voices of the Linglong sisters outside, Yue Yang also quickly remembered something. The predecessor of his body, who was seriously injured and unconscious more than ten days ago, if Yue Yang hadn't taken over this body, this young master of the Yue family would probably have died a long time ago, and the culprit of the serious injury of the young master of the Yue family was the people of the Wang family, and the cause was precisely because of the water grabbing.

Outside the courtyard gate, Shun Bao, who was dressed as a small servant, was standing at the door talking to the Linglong sisters, only to hear a "squeak", the door in the center of the courtyard was opened, and the disheveled Yue Yang stood at the door and looked at them.

Seeing this, Sister Linglong hurriedly greeted her: "Young Master, why did you come out?" Your wounds are not healed yet! ”

Due to lack of sleep, Yue Yang's eye circles were a little dark, and his face was not very good, which made the Linglong sisters even more worried.

Yue Yang said with a calm face: "I just heard from Shunbao that the people of the Wang family came to grab water with us again, and injured a few of us, is that so?" ”

Yuling hurriedly comforted: "Yes, young master, this is just a trivial matter, you don't have to worry, Master Hu will take care of it." ”

"A trifle? If it's a trivial matter, Shun Bao will come here early in the morning to find me? Yue Yang shook his head, stared at Shun Bao and asked, "Shun Bao, you tell me the truth, what is going on by the river now?" ”

Looking at Yue Yang's eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, Shun Bao couldn't help but shudder. I secretly thought in my heart, "I didn't expect the young master's temperament to change a lot after he was injured, in the past, the young master's temperament was called gentle, and if it was not good, it was weak, but now the young master still has the shadow of the past, and now the young master's eyes are like a knife." ”

Looking at Yue Yang's sharp eyes, Shun Bao didn't dare to slack off, and told the truth of the matter one by one, while Yue Yang listened to it, his brows slowly wrinkled.

It turned out that although Yuejiazhuang, to which Yueyang belonged, could be regarded as a big landlord in Yingzhou Mansion, Yingzhou Mansion was so big, it was naturally impossible for only the Yue family to be a landlord and gentry. However, although there are many gentry and landlords in the entire Yingzhou capital, there are only four of the largest and most representative families, they are the Yue family, the Wang family, the Li family and the Lin family.

First of all, the Yue family, they occupy the most land in the entire Yingzhou City, with more than 10,000 acres of fertile land, and almost half of the fields in the entire Wuli Village are the land of the Yue family.

Let's talk about the Wang family, the Wang family is engaged in the private salt business, and their private salt trading monopolizes almost all the markets in Yingzhou Capital. The Li family dominates nearly seventy percent of the leather market in Yingzhou, and the Lin family occupies more than eighty percent of the mines in Yingzhou.

It stands to reason that since these four families have their own ** in different fields, everyone should be safe and sound with the well water, but this is not the case. There are only two most important things for Chinese people, one is the inheritance of blood, and the second is the land.

The enthusiasm of the Chinese, especially the Chinese in the feudal period, for the land is unimaginable to the young people of later generations, and the Chinese people at that time always had an impostor fanaticism for the land, and even some paranoid love for the land, because the Chinese people's fascination with the land has long been engraved in their bones, and it is doomed from the day they were born.

Therefore, although the Yue family claims to be the largest landlord in Yingzhou Capital, in fact, the Wang family, the Li family, and the Lin family each own not much less land than the Yue family, and even if it is less, it is limited.

In previous years, the relationship between the Yue family and the other three families was not bad, but in the past few years, the relationship between the Yue family and these three families has gradually begun to become tense. There's only one reason for that, and that's water!

There are four rivers in the vicinity of Yingzhou Capital, namely the Sanggan River, the Hunhe River, the Huangshui River and the Papaya River. And Wulizhai is located on the Sanggan River, which is naturally equivalent to occupying the Sanggan River, and the remaining three rivers are controlled by the remaining three. Among them, the Sanggan River is the main river, and the other three rivers belong to the tributaries of the Sanggan River. But in the past two years, the problem has come as the weather has started to dry out gradually.

The Sangan River is the main channel, so it naturally has the most abundant water flow, but in the past two years, due to the dry weather, the water level has dropped, and the water flow into the other three rivers is naturally less. As mentioned earlier, the Wang, Li, and Lin families each have a lot of fields, and if the water is not enough, they will naturally not be able to irrigate enough fields, and the grain harvest will fail year after year.

Seeing such a scene, these three families were naturally anxious. Especially the Wang family, their land is second only to the Yue family, and the Hunhe River they control is also the most affected, since the beginning of spring this year, due to the lack of water, many fields of the Wang family have become cracked due to lack of water, rice can not be sown, after entering the summer the situation is even stricter, many fields in the rice fields have died due to lack of water.

Seeing such a situation, the Wang family naturally hit the head of the Sanggan River, and the patriarch of the Wang family, Wang Shoucheng, personally found the old lady of the Yue family, hoping that the Yue family could let the Wang family dig a canal in the upper reaches of the Sanggan River to bring more water from the Sanggan River into the muddy river. Although the old lady of the Yue family is kind-hearted, she is uncompromising on this kind of issue. What are you kidding, due to the dry weather, the water level of the Sanggan River has dropped sharply, and it is not enough to irrigate Wulizhai's own fields, and then let your Wang family dig a canal to divert water to your muddy water river, so what should we do? Besides, if this case is opened, then the Li family and the Lin family will definitely flock over and ask to dig a ditch to divert water, if they all agree, then do you want the Yue family's fields? Do those tenants who are attached to the Yue family still want to eat? This is something that cannot be promised.

Seeing that the old lady of the Yue family refused so simply, after Wang Chenglin, the head of the Wang family, went back, he instructed the people below to go to Wuli Village to make trouble in three days, and also sent people to secretly dig a ditch to divert water. The people of Wulizhai naturally did not agree, so the two sides made a fuss, and the matter became bigger and bigger, and Yuejiazhuang also sent people to watch the Sanggan River for twelve hours around the clock, so as to prevent the people of the Wang family from secretly digging ditches to divert water, for which the two sides almost caused a large-scale fight several times.

And the grievances between the two families naturally spread to the younger generation, the young master of the Yue family who studied in Yingzhou Mansion and the second young master of the Wang family, Wang Chenglin, met in the Baihualou in Yingzhou City a few days ago, and the young master of the Yue family was seriously injured in the conflict and almost died.

Hearing this, Yue Yang understood that the young master of the landlord's family was not completely free of troubles.

"Shunbao, follow me to the Sanggan River immediately, remember to call more people!" Looking at Shunbao, who looked worried, Yue Yang spoke.
