Cao Mao's words made Xu Yunjin and Yuan San beside him glance at each other, and the two had a hunch that things were not ordinary.

"Who did you say robbed you of your food?"

Xu Yunjin leaned close to Cao Mao slightly, and asked with a somewhat serious expression.

"Last year, the county government came to rob it, and they said that our village's tax grain was not paid, but my grandfather said that they counted it when they collected the tax, and the amount would never be wrong, but a lot of food in our village was still robbed, and now we can't eat enough."

Cao Mao's words made Xu Yunjin's heart tighten, and he wanted to know what was going on, so he waited until the land was measured and returned to Cao's house.

Under Xu Yunjin's questioning, Village Chief Cao told her the matter with a handful of snot and tears.

It turned out that when the grain tax was collected and paid last autumn, Shanghe Village paid the grain tax on time, but half a month later, two teams of officials suddenly came to the county yali.

As soon as the yacha came, he called the people of Shanghe Village and said that the people of their village had bought off the grain officials who collected taxes, and they had paid half of the grain tax, and now they should be fined to make up half of the grain tax, otherwise they would be beheaded.

Naturally, it is impossible for the people of Shanghe Village to carry this pot, and they are clamoring to go to see the official, how can the kind and simple people know that the county government is a wolf's den.

Village Chief Cao took people to the county government to not only fail to seek justice, but also brought back with a wound, and in addition to their village, seven or eight other remote villages also suffered from this situation.

The grain official had committed suicide, and before he died, he left a personal letter saying that the people from these villages had pooled money to bribe him, and he couldn't resist the temptation to make a mistake, and he felt sorry for the trust of the court and apologized with death.

The human and material evidence was there, and those who wanted to make trouble were beaten, and the people in the county also let the matter out like a fart, and the reputation of several villages plummeted.

The villages that were forcibly charged the second grain tax were all like Shanghe Village, which had no backing background in the village, and naturally did not dare to make trouble when threatened by the yamen.

So it's been a few months since the incident, and Yongding County, a neighboring county, hasn't received any news.

"So now you people in your village don't have any food left, do you?"

Xu Yunjin was unexpectedly calm after hearing this, and she was not as angry as she was when she knew Ji Ruwei and his wife, she knew that the current anger was useless.

It is not an overnight matter to bring down the He family, and the most important thing is to uproot the He family, but this is obviously not a simple matter.

The He family is not only powerful, but also has intertwined power in the court, and He Chong also holds the Danshu iron coupon given by Taizu to the ancestor of the He family.

Unless you find evidence of the He family's crimes, you can take back this great Longen, and only catching their little mistakes will not hurt the He family's heritage.

This is what Xu Yunjin knew in the letter sent by Xu Wen last time, no wonder the emperor backed the Yuan family, helped the Xiang family privately, and the Han family, but there was still no way to take the He family.

"In the first two years of drought, I couldn't save any food, but last year I finally had a bumper harvest year, but this trip happened, but fortunately, this year's thoughts are good, and there are many wild vegetables in the mountains, so I can barely eat a full stomach."

Cao Mao saw that his grandfather was crying so much that his tears fell, and he pulled his sleeves to wipe the face of the miserable village chief, and Xu Yunjin and the others looked sad.

"In a few days, I will ask people to bring some food to the village, and you will divide it behind closed doors, since I know about this matter, I will definitely let people come to investigate, and you must pay attention to whether outsiders come to your village on weekdays, and do not tell this matter so as not to attract death."

Xu Yunjin's current grain storage is probably not much different from that of ordinary big landlords, and the system has been upgraded four times, requiring a total of 720,000 catties of grain.

The system extracts two-thirds, and she can get more than 200,000 yuan of food, and she still has more than 100,000 yuan left after buying things on weekdays.

Now that there are many people in the family, Xu Yunjin rarely puts grain into the house, including soybeans, which can only be put once in a while and not too much.

So now there is so much grain in Xu Yunjin's farm that she doesn't want to see it, and it is a good thing to be a fortune boy and send it out.

"Little Lao'er thanks the county lord for the people in the village, the county lord must make the decision for us."

When the village chief Cao heard this, he knelt down directly in front of Xu Yunjin, and the Cao family couldn't cry, they were not afraid of hardship or tiredness

, I am afraid that I will encounter injustice but I still have no way to ask for help.

At this time, it was already noon, and Xu Yunjin planned to go to the winery for dinner and then take Village Chief Cao to Longyang County to apply for the land deed.

The Cao family wanted to keep Xu Yunjin and the others for lunch, but they remembered that the rice jar at home was empty, and before leaving, Xu Yunjin pretended to take out all the pastries that she had stored on the farm from the carriage and gave them to the Cao family.

"Third uncle, you won't go to Longyang County in the afternoon, go to the county government to find Jiang Baiyu, tell him about it, he will go to Fucheng to find Uncle Zhao, and the letter I wrote to my senior brother will also be sent, we have to find out the matter before the Longyang County Commander notices."

As soon as he had lunch, Xu Yunjin entered the study, and after a while, he took a letter out, and after carefully explaining Yuan San, Fan Yuanqiao rushed to take Xu Yunjin and Kang Lian to Shangshui Village, picked up Village Chief Cao, and went to Longyang County Ya.

"County Lord, you will wait near the county office with Steward Fan for a while, this county government is mixed up for fear of bumping into you, the petty official in charge of the land documents is greedy for money, as long as he gives a little benefit fee, he will help to get the title deed as soon as possible."

Village Chief Cao, who was riding in the carriage for the first time, was a little nervous, for fear that he would dirty the carriage, and said to Xu Yunjin with some trepidation.

Shangshui Village is some distance from the county, and the carriage ran for half an hour before it reached an alley near the county office, and Kang Lian and Village Chief Cao got off the bus and walked to the gate of the county office.

"Let your Mu family toast and not eat and drink, and the brothers will beat Lao Tzu to death this rabbit cub."

Xu Yunjin was originally sitting in the carriage reading a book, but after a while, he heard an arrogant voice in his ears.

Then Xu Yunjin heard the sound of sticks beating people, and the screams of pain after the boy was hit, Xu Yunjin lifted the curtain and wanted to take a look.

"Ah Jin, you go behind, I'm in front."

Fan Yuanqiao grabbed Xu Yunjin, who was walking in front, and the two of them walked towards the place where the sound came from.

It was a corner of the alley, and four men were beating people with wooden sticks, and the other party was a young man about Xu Yunqing's age, who was curled up on the ground at the moment.

"Stop, what are you doing?"

Xu Yunjin's sharp eyes saw that the young man was already vomiting blood from his mouth, but he was afraid that his spleen had been ruptured, and if it was serious, he would die.

"It's your business, little girl, Lao Tzu advises you to go as far as you want, otherwise this kid will come to clean up the two of you when Lao Tzu is done."

One of the men heard Xu Yunjin's voice and stopped waving his wooden stick, seeing that Xu Yunjin and the two were not very old, the four of them were not afraid at all, and even threatened Xu Yunjin.

"Oh~ Really? Let's see who's picking it up."

Seeing that a few people were so arrogant, Xu Yunjin knew that he couldn't do anything if he didn't do it, so he reached out and tore off the whip he was carrying from his waist, and Xu Yunjin launched an attack directly without waiting for a few people to react.

"Hey, little girl, flower fist embroidered legs, I'm afraid you won't... Ahh

One of the men looked at Xu Yunjin with disdain, and before he finished his sarcastic words, he was whipped in the chest by Xu Yunjin's whip, and the clothes on his chest were torn in response, and a trace of blood was faintly visible on his chest.

Seeing that his companion was whipped to the ground and screamed in pain, the other three were a little afraid to retreat.

"We are from the He family, I advise you not to meddle in your affairs, otherwise you will not be able to eat and walk around."

The three of them did not forget to threaten Xu Yunjin while retreating, but they didn't know that these words were stepping on a landmine, Xu Yunjin had practiced kung fu for so long and it was the first time he officially started today.

Originally, Xu Yunjin just wanted to set up a prestige and drive them away, and he didn't want to kill them all, but he didn't expect that it was the He family who would not die, so she was welcome.

"What about the He family, this girl is going to beat your He family today."

Xu Yunjin sneered, the whip in his hand swung as naturally as flowing water, and after a few sounds in the air, the four men all lay on the ground and screamed.

Xu Yunjin stepped forward to look at their right hands holding sticks, squatted in front of several people, and opened their left and right hands together, only to hear a click, and the hands of the two men were broken.

Not waiting for two

People exhaled in pain, and in the next second, Xu Yunjin walked in front of the other two and performed the same operation, she used a special method taught by her master, and the right hands of these four people could no longer be used to bully the weak in the future.
