Chapter 82: I'm the House Slave
With the gold bar in hand, Lu Er's restless heart was instantly calmed by its heavy weight!
"Hehe, with this thing, Lao Tzu is too lazy to care about these idle things, and besides, whether it is Xu Zhenbei or he Xu Fu, they are not good birds, and they deserve to die. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" stuffed the gold bar into his mouth and bit it, to make sure it was true, Lu Er hurriedly put it away, for fear of being seen.
But just when he was about to close the door and lock it, he suddenly thought of Xiang'er again, and he couldn't help but feel a little pity in his heart, "Alas! What a little! Not to mention the old thing that was forced to marry Xu Fu at a young age, and now he has fallen into this fate again, what a pitiful! ”
Thinking of Xiang'er's pretty little face, Lu Er couldn't help but sneak a glance into the room through the crack in the door, and an inexplicable heat suddenly rose in his lower abdomen.
"Gollum!"
Swallowing a pack of saliva hard, Lu Er finally locked the door and reluctantly turned to leave.
In Lu Er's view, life and gold are almost equally important, but a woman, as long as there is life and gold, there is as much as he wants, and after this matter has passed, he is ready to leave the sacrificial village and return to his hometown to make him happy with three wives and four concubines.
With gold bars in his arms and a head full of warblers and swallows, Lu Er completely forgot the bloody scene just now, and strode to the front of the sacrificial spirit village.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”
Lu Er didn't know where to find a gong, and stood in the front yard of the Sacrifice Village and struck it three times.
Suddenly, more than 70 people from the entire Sacrifice Village were all gathered in the front yard.
Lu Er didn't talk nonsense, according to the strategy he and Xu Zhenbei had discussed in advance, he lied that Xu Fu suddenly fell ill, and several ladies were accompanying Xu Fu to get out, and Xu Zhenbei was in charge of the affairs in the village for the time being, and hoped that everyone would fully cooperate and be ready to welcome distinguished guests.
"Huh! That's not right. Wasn't the old man okay before? How do you say that a disease is a case? ”
"Yes, although the old man is old, his legs and feet are a little inconvenient, but his body has always been very tough, and he usually doesn't even have a cold ......."
“……”
As soon as Lu Er's voice fell, it immediately aroused some people's doubts.
These people are basically old slaves of the Sacrifice Spirit Village, and some of them are even above Lu Er.
Perhaps because they have stayed in the Sacrifice Spirit Village for a long time, they have more or less relied on the Spirit Sacrifice Village and Xu Fu, and pinned the future of their future generations on this huge manor.
Like Lu Er, these people all grew up watching Xu Zhenbei and knew Xu Zhenbei very well, so they couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in their hearts.
Seeing that the discussion was everywhere, Lu Er hurriedly waved the mallet in his hand, and with a "bang", the drum sounded and the gong was beaten.
"Why? You want to rebel, don't you? This person is old, why is there any fuss about suddenly getting sick? ”
"Besides, you are just a group of subordinates, a group of minions, do you need to worry about it? All...... Give me all the work. ”
"Remember for me, if the fuck doesn't do well, poke out some basket, make the distinguished guest unhappy, not to mention the punishment, and have to deduct his salary for a year."
As the steward of the sacrificial spirit village, Lu Er has this right, so when he heard him say this, the discussion stopped.
Seeing this, Lu Twenty was very proud, and swaggered to the backyard with a gong, and hummed as he walked: "A bunch of poor ghosts, I don't believe that you don't love money, hehe!" ”
This slave originally did not have any wages, once bought home by the slave owner, it would be like a cow, in addition to food and shelter, even a good piece of clothing, the slave owner would not give one more piece, let alone any wages, can give you three meals a day, even if it is good.
However, after the Wolf Howling Legion occupied Gufeng City, this situation gradually improved.
Although the slavery system has not been completely abolished, and it is still allowed to sell themselves into slavery, the government has issued a clear decree that slave owners must treat slaves well, not to lynch and want to cause harm, and must pay a certain amount of remuneration every month every year, otherwise they will be severely punished according to law, so these slaves in the shrine have wages.
Although the monthly wages received by each person are pitiful, it is much better than before, and many people even save their money, thinking that one day they will be able to redeem the deed of sale and regain their freedom!
As soon as I heard Lu Er say that he wanted to deduct the money, those people who were still suspicious were panicked one by one, who would be willing to take care of the Xu family's! After a while, they all dispersed.
Gufeng City.
It was the earliest city occupied by the Wolf Howling Legion, and various legal reforms were being practiced or carried out one after another.
In this regard, Lin Kong didn't have time to ask, and left it to Shi Wu and the others to deal with.
Lin Kong sat in a gorgeous carriage, observing the people's conditions all the way, and still felt that the policies implemented on the fifth day were not perfect in some places.
"Ada, when I go back, tell Shi Wu to give more preferential policies to the poor people and solve the problem of food and clothing for the people as soon as possible."
"Whoa!" Ada answered the order and said to Lin Kong: "Lord, in half an hour, we will go to the Sacrifice Spirit Village, do you think you want to send someone to take the first step and tie up the father and son of Xu Zhenbei?" ”
"No, more than ten years have passed, presumably they have long thought that I am dead, even if they hear the name Lin Kong, they will not believe that I am that house slave, hahaha......"
Thinking that he was about to see Xu Zhenbei, he didn't know why, Lin Kong's heart was full of joy.
The reason why Lin Kong has this strange mentality is actually related to his current status.
Because today's Xu Zhenbei, for Lin Kong, is like an ant, how he wants to die, he has to die, and it is precisely because of this ability that Lin Kong will ignore everything and be full of comfort.
Looking at the familiar mountains and rivers outside the carriage, Lin Kong finally stood at the muddy intersection where he had stopped and looked back.
"Xu Zhenbei, a grass man, led all the house slaves of the Sacrifice Spirit Village to welcome Lin Gong!" As soon as Lin Kong got off the carriage, Xu Zhenbei took Lu Er and more than 70 people and knelt respectfully on both sides of the mountain road leading to the Sacrifice Village.
To tell the truth, this Xu Zhenbei is really hard enough, in order to please Lin Kong, he did not hesitate to take the whole Zhuang family slave and ran to kneel a few miles away to greet him, completely ignoring the thorns on both sides of the road, and directly went up.
Lin Kong took a deep look at Xu Zhenbei, and when he saw that he was kneeling on the ground and didn't even dare to raise his head, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a weird smile, and said to Ada on the side: "Ada, ask a few people to watch here, and then let a few of them get up at three o'clock in the afternoon, and the others will follow me." ”
"Whoa!" Ada Lang agreed, turned his head and said to the guards beside him, "You ...... You...... And a few of you, watch it carefully here, if it doesn't arrive at three o'clock in the afternoon, those who get up without permission will be killed! ”
"Whoa!"
When Xu Zhenbei and Lu Er and the others heard this, they were immediately stupid, and only after Lin Kong and the others walked away did they raise their heads in panic.
"I said this military master, Lin Gong...... What does that mean? Lu Er looked up and asked one of the guards.
However, several guards were like puppets, not even looking at Lu Er, let alone answering him. In desperation, Lu Er had no choice but to turn his aggrieved eyes to Xu Zhenbei.
In order to curry favor with Lin Kong, Xu Zhenbei asked someone to lay a layer of thorns and stones under his knees in advance, hoping to attract Lin Kong's attention in exchange for loyalty and praise.
Unexpectedly, Lin Kong made him kneel until three o'clock in the afternoon, which made the original plan to win favor for a short time become a real pain.
"Look...... What to watch? What the fuck is this bad idea? Seeing Lu Er looking at him, Xu Zhenbei really wanted to incite him two big mouths immediately.
"Second young master, I'...... Haven't I been with you through thick and thin? What are you angry about! Besides, who would have thought that Lin Kong's temper was so weird! "Lu Er also has rocks and thorns under his knees, which is also miserable.
"Lin Kong? Lin Kong? Could it be that it was really him? Xu Zhenbei muttered two sentences in a low voice, and was suddenly stunned, turned his head to look at the other house slaves kneeling on the ground, and his heart suddenly thumped. [To be continued]
