"Welcome, stand down!"

The man who drew his sword against the village chief behind the man was obviously one of the guards of the adult, and after the man spoke, he saw the guard who was called the heart turn respectfully and bent down with a fist at the man in the seat.

"Yes, sir!"

Only then did the man speak when he saw his man go down.

"Lord Ben is only on orders, and if you can't get the money, then you are ready to hand it over! Anyway, it's the same with this outburst of silver! That's all you have to say, you can decide for yourself! ”

After speaking, the man squinted his eyes slightly at the dazzling sunlight, looking at the villagers below who were silent when he spoke, and the man touched his brow a little impatiently!

The village chief looked at the fact that in the past, it was the head catcher of the official government yamen to send out the papers, and they all started to recruit soldiers after the autumn after the harvest of grain, why is it not the head catcher of the official government yamen this year, but this adult who does not know what identity he is?

Although the village chief felt strange, he didn't show half a point! After all, those officials standing on the sidelines can't be fake!

Who knew that this lord opened his mouth this year, and one person asked for a whole five taels of silver, where did he get five taels of silver?

Do you really want your children to serve in the military? Or is his old bone, half of his body in the dirt, dead outside?

At that moment, the village chief's face turned pale, and his lips trembled slightly! But he still tried his best to endure it.

"My lord, it's not a little old man bargaining, we used to serve in the military after the autumn, but today it's a lot earlier, the grain in the field is also harvested, we really can't take out so many silver taels, little old man begs the adult to forgive a period of time, okay?"

After speaking, the village chief bowed solemnly to the adults in front of him with a pleading face, and said in a slightly deep voice.

Yuwen looked at the old man in front of him and interceded again and again, and knew that it was not easy to ask them to take out the silver taels for a while, and his eyes were slightly deep at the moment, and he didn't know what he meant.

"In that case, Ben-sama will open the net! Let Er wait for three days before deciding, if he can't get the silver taels, he will go out and follow Master Ben away! If you don't have both, don't blame Ben-sama for being ruthless! ”

After saying that, Yuwen stood up, and the guards behind him walked behind Yuwen with satisfaction, and the group got on the horse at the door of the village chief's house, and Lord Yuwen, who was walking in front, got into a black carriage!

The village chief followed the official messenger and sent the adults away, and then turned around and went up the steps of his house with a heavy face, and looked at the villagers below whose faces were a little pale.

"Did you hear me clearly? The adult can say, if you want to keep people this year, you have to pay five taels of silver, if you don't keep people, then get ready in these two days, pack up your things and leave with the adults in two days! ”

As soon as the village chief's voice fell, the villagers in the courtyard couldn't accept the news they had just heard for a while, and they all made a noise.

"O village chief! Why did the conscription start so early this year? Our grain is still in the fields, and now at this time, where can we get so much silver? Village Chief, you help us plead for mercy! Think of a way! ”

"Yes! Village chief, our family is about to run out of food, and now at this time, let our men go to military service, isn't that going to force us to death? ”

"Village chief, going to be a soldier is a life of death! Don't you see that the three babies and the big dog who were requisitioned last year didn't come back? How many survived on the battlefield? Can you ask the adults to pay according to the share of previous years? ”

"Oh, our three babies, my mother's good boy! You died so miserably~"

"Mother, mother, what's wrong with you? Hurry up! Mother, didn't you make your daughter-in-law's heart hurt? ”

"Our big dog, why did you die so miserably~"

Among the noisy villagers, when they heard the mention of Wang Dagou and Wang Sanwa, who were requisitioned last year and had never returned, Wang Dagou and Wang Sanwa's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the village cried for a while.

The village chief standing on the steps looked even worse, and said to the village chief who stood and spoke one after another without backache.

"What are you crying about, the big dog and the third baby have already gone! What we have to think about now is how to keep the current people! Do you think we didn't intercede? Didn't you see it just now, the old man said one more thing, and the adult didn't get the old man's head down? ”

"The old man is so talkative, he almost didn't kneel down to plead, the big man is a few days of grace, you go back and find a way! If there is no silver, let it be a man. ”

When the village chief said this, his face was a little unbearable, but there has been conscription since ancient times, which cannot be avoided, and it is useless to say more!

When the villagers standing in the courtyard heard the words of the village chief, they also remembered the satisfaction of being ready to draw their knives just now, and everyone's hearts were sudden, and their faces became sad for a while.

"Otherwise, let's mention the grain in the field and count it, at least as much as there is!"

Some people had no choice, so they hit the idea on the grain that was not yet ripe in the field, so that the village chief who heard this immediately scolded Wang Ergou who spoke!

"Nonsense! Wang Ergou, what are your bad ideas? The grain in that field is now harvested and used for a fart! Thinking about these crooked ways, it is better to think about how to make enough money! ”

Wang Ergou was a father a few days ago, his daughter-in-law gave birth to a big fat boy in October, and now he has not had time to enjoy the joy of being a father, there was a conscription, thinking of leaving his fat son, how could Wang Ergou not be anxious?

So after knowing that he was determined to go to military service, Wang Ergou had to hit the idea of the grain that had not yet matured in the field.

After Wang Ergou was scolded by the village chief, he also knew that this idea was not appropriate! If he takes the food, what will his family eat? What to drink?

"That.. Tell me, village chief, what can we do? ”

The village chief looked at Wang Ergou's crying face, and thought in his heart that Wang Ergou's daughter-in-law gave birth to a big fat boy for him some time ago, and now he must be reluctant!

At that moment, his face softened a little.

"Hey! See for yourselves! The old man has three sons at home, and the eldest and second daughter-in-law of the family only found out last night that they have been happy for more than three months, and the third daughter-in-law has not yet married, how can I let them go? So the old man is also anxious! I don't know how to make up five taels of silver, so you all go back and figure it out for yourself! ”

The village chief, who said this, suddenly frowned, and issued an eviction order for the villagers to go back!

When the villagers heard the words of the village chief, they didn't know what to do for a while, they all looked at each other at the moment, and then slowly moved out of the village chief's house!

As soon as the villagers came out of the gate of the courtyard, they dispersed at once! Let Yun Niang, who was in the yard, hear the words from outside clearly.

"The child and her mother, why don't we go and borrow some silver from our father-in-law and mother-in-law? We'll pay it back when we have it, okay? ”

"No, no, no! There must be no silver in my mother's place, but there are still brothers at home, so it's good if my mother doesn't come to borrow silver! Let's go back and see, if there is anything to sell, we will exchange it for silver, and we will make up enough five taels of silver for you to stay! ”
