Chapter 16: Wooing the Townspeople

To Chen Hansheng's surprise, they did not wait for the baron's guards, and the other party seemed to be indifferent to the fact that the Tuchin family was rescued by Chen Hansheng.

However, Chen Hansheng is not in a hurry, he still follows his own plan, the investigation of the investigation, the interview of the interview. He also took the lead himself and began to work with all the people in the team to help the people of the town.

He went to the door and moved all the mats and grass of the Tuchin family to the hostel, freed up a room, and took time every day to knit straw hats with the family of three. Chen Hansheng was originally quite skillful, and coupled with the flexibility of the low-level warriors, he quickly learned this craft decently.

At first, the Tuchin family couldn't understand that the mayor was doing such a thing with them. But as the old saying goes, habit becomes nature, and after two or three days, they can weave with Chen Hansheng with peace of mind.

Chen Hansheng would often mention Erin and analyze the reasons for her death, and before they knew it, Tuchin's sadness slowly subsided, but their hatred increased day by day.

Day after day, Chen Hansheng's companions also haunted the town, doing the same thing.

Two streets away from the hostel, Wang Xiaofeng, a soldier of the escort team, carried a load of ryegrass and pushed the door into a courtyard.

A young woman hurried up to him and helped him move the grass. The young woman Lena had dark skin and a thin body, and there was always a hint of sadness between her eyebrows. But when she saw Wang Xiaofeng, she couldn't help but smile.

A little kid of about four years old jumped up and ran around him, shouting, "Uncle has come to help, mother is happy." ”

"I haven't finished the grass I picked up yet. Lena said.

"Then stay tuned. Wang Xiaofeng and Shaolina piled the grass into the pigsty together. Then he picked up the bucket on the side and said, "I'll go fetch water." ”

Lena is a widow who was requisitioned by the Baron two months ago to transport goods, and fell to his death in a ravine in the rain. There was no man in the house, and a four-year-old child to pull, which made her fall into complete despair.

Just when life is getting worse day by day, and it is about to be unbearable. The man who called himself Mayor of the town appeared with these strange people. At first it was the woman named Kalanda, and then it was this young man named Wang Xiaofeng, and they helped her with all the chores they could. She felt like she had been struggling to hold on for two months, and when she was about to collapse, someone finally showed up and helped her.

Wang Xiaofeng quickly picked up the water and came back, this weight can bend a woman's back, but for him who has a vindictive spirit, it is a piece of cake.

"Let's stay for dinner today. Lena said.

"Good. Wang Xiaofeng smiled. Take a sausage out of your pocket. "According to the frying I taught you last time, it is fragrant. ”

"Hmm. Lena went to cook, but she couldn't hide the joy on her face.

In a dilapidated house to the north of the hostel.

Another of the guards, Marenor, a former slave of the Empire, chops wood for an old man named Dominic.

The old man had fought in a war and was lame, and it is said that he had been wounded in the war with the Empire in the early years, so his attitude towards Marreno could be described as bad.

"Hey, this axe is crooked again, how can the empire produce waste like you. ”

"Stupid, you can jam the axe, women have more strength than you, if you want to be lazy, don't come. ”

As soon as Maleno met such an old man who hated the Empire, he wanted to give up. But Chen Hansheng told him that as long as the old man was willing to let him in, it meant that there was a show. If anyone who hates the Empire can be influenced by the Empire, then their way of wooing the townspeople is truly successful.

So Marreno began the hard work.

He did more and more things for the old man, but the old man never lacked words to mock him, when one day, he felt physically and mentally exhausted and wanted to give up. The old man suddenly poured a glass of water and placed it in front of him.

"Drink. At this time, the old man's words were surprisingly concise, and he did not know where to run after speaking.

But Maleno held the cup in his hand and felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

In a small courtyard on the west side of the town, Glade swaggered out, followed by two grateful townspeople.

He didn't take a few steps before he ran into Chen Hansheng, who came to inspect.

"How's it going to be with this family?"

Glade gestured with his thumb to the respectful townspeople behind him and said, "I'm a mid-level peak mage, what else is there to say." See, that family has treated me as a god from old to young. I healed their old man's joints, his son's arm, and his house with magic. For these few things, they are very grateful. ”

Chen Hansheng said: "Then let me ask you, have they been oppressed by the baron, and what enmity do they have with the baron?"

"Uh, this...... , it should be similar to everyone else, right?" said Glade, scratching his head.

"The old man of their family is blind in one eye, and he was blinded by the baron with his fighting spirit when he was herding cattle in the way in the early years. The injury on his son's hand was caused by an overseer who was slow to work last month. ”

"You know everything?"

"Of course, you still don't understand the meaning of our work. I'm not here for you to be the savior. It's about letting us know what they're suffering and what we want to do. And you? I didn't talk to them at all. Chen Hansheng said solemnly.

"It's not that you don't know my identity, they don't know a single word, what do you have to say to me. I'll say something, can they understand......" Glade was halfway through speaking, met Chen Hansheng's serious eyes, lowered his head and said, "Got it, got it." ”

——————————

Every night, after everyone comes back, it is Chen Hansheng's summary meeting, and he will discuss the progress of the work with everyone.

The rooms of the hostel are very small, and whenever there is a plenary meeting, they will be crowded in the backyard, sitting or standing, in a circle, and more than 50 people will be crammed into a courtyard of forty or fifty square meters for meetings, although crowded, the atmosphere is often very warm.

If it weren't for Glade's silent circle every time, half the town would have been woken up by them.

After everyone reports, Chen Hansheng will give various opinions, he is an experienced old Jianghu, and the methods he said are quite reasonable. Therefore, even if some people have a higher cultivation level than him, they still obey him.

On this day, Chen Hansheng stood on a haystack, glanced at the people present and said, "Everyone has done a good job these days. What kind of goods are those nobles, everyone knows it these days, right?" everyone present nodded.

"Those poor people are dying. ”

"It's about to die, it's much better to be forced to die. ”

Even Glade said: "Although I am too lazy to deal with the of those nobles, I have to say that they are all a bunch of garbage." ”

Chen Hansheng said: "That's right, before we came out, the committee had two sets of plans in front of me. One is to completely wipe out the local aristocratic forces, and the other is to cooperate with the aristocratic forces and use them to control the labor force. The first way definitely requires bloodshed, and I was still a little hesitant in my heart, but when I got here, I saw these bad things with my own eyes, and I understood one thing, we actually have no choice at all!"
