Chapter 712: Civilian Life

Seeing this battle, Ma Yuankui was really angry and laughed; "Hahahaha...... Lao Tzu doesn't believe that there is still a place in Qingdao where I can't enter, just because you stinky fish and rotten shrimp also want to block the way of my young master Ma, it seems that the tiger is not powerful, do you really think I am a sick cat? ”

The voice fell

Some young men on the surrounding streets had quickly gathered over, which attracted the attention of Sheriff Huang Jisheng, who was patrolling the street, and hurriedly ran over with one of his subordinates, and blew the police whistle in his hand, calling for nearby support.

"Young Master Ma, do you want to engage in such a big battle?"

Huang Jisheng naturally recognized Ma Yuankui, the eldest young master of the Ma family, oh...... These two young masters and three young masters are all here, and there are a total of seven brothers in the Ma family, none of whom are worry-free.

"Huang Sin, there's nothing wrong with you here."

Ma Yuankui said and walked inside first, Zhao Wu frowned and didn't stop him, and the men of the Lu family behind him lined up silently, blocking the way.

"Get out of here."

The man who was blocking it at the moment smiled coldly, took out the family noble badge from his arms and put it in front of Ma Yuankui, and said in a small but very firm voice; "My noble young master is buying goods inside, and I don't like to be disturbed by idle people, please wait a while for this officer gentleman, don't bump into the interest of my young master and young lady, that's all, if you know each other, don't break in for a while, otherwise everyone won't look good."

"You ......"

Ma Yuankui was so angry that his face was bruised, but he really couldn't take a step in front of this noble badge.

Although this is only a baronial family crest, it is indeed an out-and-out nobleman, and his status is higher than that of a wealthy merchant, even if his father Ma Weimin does not dare to mess around here.

Otherwise, the kingdom's strict hierarchical etiquette makes him look good every minute.

Is nobility just an honor?

No, it means a lot of privileges and represents a privileged class that has formed a noble class in the Ocean Kingdom.

Any act of contempt for the nobility will be seen as disrespectful to the royal power.

Seeing the noble badge displayed on one side, Sheriff Huang Jisheng immediately knew what to do, and his waist pole also stood up, and the men who arrived later commanded said;

"What are you doing here, quickly disperse all the irrelevant personnel for me, do you want to eat whips if you don't obey the command of the police? Look at me one by one, give me everything you can. ”

"And this Young Master Ma, please move your steps and don't block the door of someone's shop."

"I warn you, the law of the land is merciless."

A gag completely dissipated the slightly tense atmosphere of Fang Cai.

Not much

Lu Hanfeng and Zhao Yinger appeared at the door of the store together, and the guy behind them was carrying a large bag of things to buy, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this scene.

"Brother Da Kui."

"Are you...... Ma Yuankui? ”

The first sound was Zhao Ying'er's call, and her sweet slender jade hand held Lu Hanfeng's arm, still intoxicated with happiness.

Seeing this scene in Ma Yuankui's eyes, it was like a stab in the heart, and his face froze.

The second call was by Lu Hanfeng, and the partners who hadn't seen each other for more than ten years met again, and they were only eight or nine years old when they separated. 12 years have passed, and when we meet again, we can only see a faint shadow from the faces of the young people opposite.

From the other party's gaze, he could see Ma Yuankui's deep affection for Zhao Yinger, which made Lu Hanfeng immediately vigilant.

, trying to pry my corner.

"Wow...... Sister-in-law, you don't keep the woman's way, and you actually hold the hand of this stinky boy? ”

With an abrupt sound of a male duck's throat, the third horse Yuansheng screamed as if he had discovered a new continent, and pointed at Zhao Yinger with his hand, which stabbed the hornet's nest.

Zhao Ying'er's hand retracted like an electric shock, and her face instantly turned red like blood.

Everyone present is full of black lines visible to the naked eye, can you shout casually?

Do you want the reputation of an innocent girl?

How will you get married in the future?

"Shut up." Zhao Wu's nose was crooked in anger, and when he stepped forward, he grabbed Ma Yunsheng's collar tightly and scolded loudly; "Hugh has to talk nonsense, my eldest lady is an innocent yellow flower girl, and you are not allowed to be honest and innocent."

"I ...... That's how I said it. Ma Yuansheng's face turned white with fright.

"Shut up." Ma Yuankui originally wanted to talk to Lu Hanfeng, but seeing that the third brother had a big disaster, he knew that it was not time.

He stepped forward and twisted it lightly with his hand, and the big iron tong-like hand immediately unloaded Zhao Wu's hand, and then protected the third brother behind him, and said with a fist to the surrounding crowd;

"Fathers, fellow villagers, neighbors, please forgive me, who is the eldest brother, for not being strict in his discipline, the third brother is young and reckless, and he is talking nonsense, what he means by this sister-in-law......"

"Yes, this sister-in-law is good." Lu Hanfeng suddenly cut off Ma Yuankui's words, he stood up and made a gesture around him, and said with a smile; "The Ma brothers and I have a small friendship, this time I returned to my hometown in Qingdao, respect the order of the elders, I Lu Hanfeng and Miss Zhao Fu Yinger are about to conclude a good relationship, Brother Yuansheng shouted in advance Sister-in-law is also reasonable, there is a way is a thousand miles of marriage, thank you for witnessing."

This turn of the peak made the surrounding onlookers suddenly realize that they congratulated each other.

Lu Hanfeng returned the salute like a spring breeze, only stabbing Zhao Ying'er in his arms with shame, and refused to look up again.

Witness this

Ma Yuankui's face was pale and he staggered back two or three steps, and the people on the left and right hurriedly supported him, asking questions with concern.

At this moment, Ma Yuankui's heart was in turmoil, how could he still have the heart to answer.

What's the point of content?

The good cabbage was obviously arched by the pig, Ma Yuankui turned his head and left in frustration, and the second brother Ma Yuankun and the third brother Ma Yuansheng stomped their feet with nowhere to go, and they could only follow and leave.

Two black crown cars drove over, Lu Hanfeng first helped Zhao Yinger into the car, and then saluted everyone around him, ushered in a cheer, and then lowered his head and got into the car.

Sheriff Huang Jisheng took his subordinates to stand aside and salute, watching the black car leave, then he put down his hand and sighed, and said; "It seems that there is another strong dragon in our Qingdao territory, alas, if these masters fight again, they will be busy in the future!"

"Sheriff, what is the origin of this Lu family?"

"Hmph, what's the origin, don't you know the Lu Family Ranch in the northwest?"

"I'm a good girl, that's also a sitting tiger!"

"You know a fart, this sitting tiger has become a flying dragon after going around outside, didn't you see the baron noble badge that the general took out? That is a hereditary nobleman, and he is even stronger than Master Zhao of Qingdao Port. We have a famous merchant in Qingdao not 1,000 households but also seven or eight hundred households, none of them can catch up with this master, the surname Ma is awesome on weekdays, and he has to be dumbfounded when he sees it, you just say it's not powerful, right? ”

"Cow, this is a real cow."

"Learn a little, boy, polish your tricks a little, the dog that bites is the one that doesn't bark."

"Understood, sheriff."

Sheriff Huang Jisheng casually put the baton in his armpit, and walked along the street, the police uniform on his body gave him full confidence, and he was a good figure in the civilian world.

He was a retired soldier of the Qingdao Division, and four years ago, he followed the army to the southernmost border line of New South Wales, and after the war, he was disarmed and returned to the field, and was placed in the police station to do this stable and well-paid job.

There are more than 670 police officers in Qingdao City, most of whom are retired soldiers, and the police officers are graduates of the Eagle School, who are young-blooded, thoughtful, ambitious, and infinitely loyal to His Majesty the King.

Huang Jisheng did not choose to settle in New South Wales, but returned to Qingdao, north of Queensland, where his military field was allocated to a large river 47 kilometers away from Qingdao, with 17 acres.

Instead of cultivating the land himself, he subleased it to his military colleagues who were willing to cultivate it, and signed a 20-year sublease contract for which he could earn an annual rental income of 34 gold oceans, equivalent to 340 silver oceans.

This money is almost equal to the wages of two full-time dock workers in Qingdao for a year, Huang Jisheng does not have to do anything, and there will be such a stable income every year for the next 20 years.

To be honest, this land rent is not very high.

But considering that there is no need to do anything, the land tax is also paid by the lessee, and he is a trustworthy brother in the army, so less is less.

Many compatriots in the army have rented out their fields, and according to the policy, meritorious fields are allowed to be leased, but they are not allowed to resell, mortgage, or change their use.

During the lifetime of the current owner, he can enjoy the ultra-low 19 tax rate for life, that is, only pay 10% of the tax on output, and can enjoy a two-year tax holiday.

If the tax is not paid for 5 consecutive years, the government will repossess the land free of charge.

After the death of the current owner, his children can inherit the land, but they need to pay a large amount of taxes, change the nature of the meritorious field to private land, and in the future, they can be traded and mortgaged to transfer, and the private land tax will be implemented, and the preferential tax will no longer be enjoyed.

If the relevant fees are not paid, the government will repossess the land free of charge.

It is still reliable to rent it to the brothers in the army for farming, because they themselves have meritorious land, and if they dare not pay taxes, the first thing to be recovered is their own land, which no one dares to do.

After Huang Jisheng came back from retirement, he used his savings to buy three storefront houses on the upper and lower floors in Qingdao City, opened a shop below, lived on the top, and a small courtyard in the back, built a few kitchens, stables and auxiliary rooms, and lived a very nourishing life.

There was a sum of money when he was in the army, a sum of money when he was in the service, and a sum of money when he was retired, adding up to more than 70 Jinyang......

At that time, the troops followed the army into the city of Sydney, and there were beacon guns everywhere, and it was a chaotic wartime scene.

Huang Jisheng and several brothers in the army broke into a building facing the street with guns, he raised his foot and kicked the door open, and a middle-aged white man inside was holding a wooden stick in his hand and was so frightened that he knocked the other party to the ground with a single shot.

A woman's scream came from the house, and he looked vigilantly at a glance, only to see a pair of white women who looked like mother and daughter hugging each other tightly and screaming in fear, and did not find any enemies with guns.

Huang Jisheng walked over with a gun and searched room by room, but in the end he didn't find anything abnormal.

So Huang Jisheng, who was in a relaxed mood, began to rummage through the boxes and cabinets to search for the loot, at this time he heard the screams and struggles of the white mother and daughter outside, as well as the sound of panting and tearing clothes, and soon became whimpering......

Huang Jisheng's luck was good, he actually found a bag of golden gold in the drawer under the study, and the heavy weight was not light, so he always unceremoniously put it in his arms.

……

Returned after the war

Huang Jisheng used the money to buy 3 upstairs and downstairs frontage frontages, married a Chinese woman to make the main house, and a white woman to do the side house, and since then he has lived a comfortable life without shame.

This white woman had been bought by him in Wollongong with a cane, with a thick waist and a big buttocks, but she was easy to raise.

There is a grain and oil store on the front of the street, there is enough grain and oil produced in the army in the Paoze farm, the goods are not worried, as long as they are transported to the Huangji grain and oil store to sell, and then give money.

Huang Kee's business is quite good, in addition to letting the daughter-in-law of the family take care of it, he also hired two guys who are nimble, and he can earn 180 gold in a year.

Coupled with Huang Jisheng's errand at the police station, the annual salary is almost 27~30 Jinyang, and if you get some extra money, you can live a shiny and moist life.

It's not ...... He is already thinking about marrying another aunt's wife, after all, the concept of spreading branches for the family has penetrated into the depths of every Chinese's thoughts, why not marry if there is this condition?

on the streets

Huang Jisheng took a policeman to patrol around, this is his daily work, as a policeman, he has to ask about everything on the street, the goods stalls are placed in a mess, open defecation, trivial quarrels, suspicious characters are checked, petty theft to murder and arson, almost everything.

"Officer Huang, come and sit in the store...... Rest your feet. ”

"Master Huang, I have dozens of pounds of leftover lamb backbones here, I know that you are good at this bite, and I will let the guy send it to you later, and I will stew and drink wine at night!"

"Ah Sheng, don't go, take a sip of tea here, I have Yunwu Mountain tea that just came in from the mainland."

The merchants on the street are very enthusiastic, greeting each other from afar, Huang Jisheng responded with a smile, in this street that is already full of fireworks, the neighbors are all acquaintances, and they have a lot of help with each other, which makes him have a comfortable feeling of patrolling his territory.

Not far to go

Huang Jisheng saw two Fusang men in front of him with clogs on their feet and Japanese katana swords at their waists, his face suddenly turned cold, and he shouted loudly; "Hey, you two stop for me, check it out."

When the two Fuso warriors heard this, they turned around and saw that it was the police officer coming, so they quickly nodded and bowed; "Hey, sir."

"Take out your temporary identity papers, I'll check them." Huang Jisheng took the certificate handed by the other party with a cold face, looked back and forth, and said; "The identification paper doesn't say that you can carry weapons, now you must hand over your katana and follow me back to the police station."

"Nani, the katana is the life of every samurai, this is the tradition of the Great Fuso Empire, and it is unreasonable for you to do this."

"What kind of bullshit is the Fusang Empire, it's just a slave, this is the Ocean Kingdom, you two give me honesty, if you dare to act without permission, you will be killed, do you hear clearly?"

Huang Jisheng saw the other party's emotional hand on the handle of the knife, and immediately took out the matching gun, pointed at the Fusang warrior, and then shouted loudly; "Pull out the knife with one hand and put it on the ground, move slowly, and then raise my hands up and lie on the ground for me, so I don't want to repeat it a second time, do as I am told, or I will blow you in the head with one shot, and the nasty little devils are everywhere like cockroaches."

Under the threat of the guns of the two policemen, the two Fuso samurai could only do as they were ordered, untied their katanas and put them on the ground, and then obediently lay on the ground.

A moment later

Huang Jisheng let go of the two Fusang samurai, and with a smile he shared a set of katana with the policemen around him.

At dusk

Officer Huang Jisheng got off duty, handed over in the police station and went out, carrying two katanas, one long and one short, ready to go home.

"Ah Sheng, why haven't you come to my place to play these days."

"Hey, hey, it's Brother Tiger, where do I have the blessing to go to the big theater every day to listen to the play, and I still have business to take care of at home, don't we dare to compare with you in this small family, don't we have to beg for a living?"

"You kid, don't be poor with me, Brother Tiger still needs you money for this movie ticket? Next time you go, just report my name, and I'm exempt. ”

"Brother Tiger is cool, Ah Sheng admires."

"It's a small thing." The tall tiger brother waved his hand casually, and then took out the diamond-encrusted Swiss pocket watch in his arms and glanced at it, and said; "Ah Sheng, the retired veterans' club in our division is basically to help retired veterans who are depressed to solve their food and clothing, Brother Hu, I donated 5,000 Jinyang to get a director, if you have time, come and see, our old brothers get together, go, and have a party."

After speaking, he waved his hand and walked away with a few tough men.

Huang Jisheng couldn't help but pout his lips when he looked at his departing back, thinking about what to do, it wasn't that he had made a lot of money in the Southern State.

Brother Tiger is the sergeant major of their battalion, he has been in the army for a long time, his qualifications are old, and he is also bold.

After returning from retirement, he bought a lot of properties, opened a large theater, and heard that he also took a stake in the No. 4 warehouse of Qingdao Port, and the business became more and more prosperous.

He doesn't have a title of nobility, so if he doesn't buy a crown car, he will be majestic.

Okay, other people's homes are other people's business, let's not be red.

Huang Jisheng was very content to pad the Fusang knife in his hand, and took the rickety Wang Babu home.

Sunset

The sound of shops selling in the street market is endless, the tempting aroma of food is permeating, the people in the depths of the streets and alleys are stir-frying in the iron pot, and children are playing and shouting, and the smell of life is fireworks.
