Wang Lung walked out of the village chief's house, it was already dark, and the Great Change Dynasty was the same as the ancient Chinese feudal dynasty, the people rose and rested, so Wang Lung walked on the dark village road, and did not see a single figure.

When I got home, I saw that the lights in the house were bright, and Li Yu was still weaving cloth on the textile machine that had just been built.

Li Yu said while weaving, "How are things going?" ”

Wang Lung sat down at the table, lifted the teapot, poured a glass of water, and said, "That's it." Tomorrow you and I will gather a dozen people in the village, uproot all the weeds and trees in that land, and then build a factory. ”

After speaking, Wang Lung picked up the glass of water and drank it into his stomach.

Li Yu said, "Okay. ”

The next morning, before dawn, Wang Lung woke up.

Last night, Wang Lung experienced the first time in his life, but it did not affect today's mental state, but was in a happy mood, Wang Lung looked at Li Yu, who was sleeping next to him, and said, "Lady, it's time to get up." ”

Li Yu was born a poor child, but he was not pampered, so he immediately opened his eyes and said, "Oh. ”

With that, Li Yu lifted the quilt, turned over, then got dressed, and walked out of the house with Wang Long.

When they came to the compound, the two of them started a bucket of well water to wash their faces and rinse their mouths.

When she finished washing, Li Yu went to the kitchen to cook.

Wang Lung boxed in the courtyard and practiced archery.

After a while, Li Yu came out of the kitchen with a pot of porridge and said happily, "Brother Long, it's time for breakfast." ”

Wang Lung said, "Oh. ”

Wang Lung stopped boxing, returned to the house, and then sat down at the table with Li Yu and ate breakfast.

This feeling made Wang Lung happy, and it was then that he really realized that it didn't matter what a person ate, what mattered was who he ate with.

If you eat salted fish and cabbage every day with your loved ones, it will also taste good.

After breakfast, Wang Lung and Li Yu walked out of the house, and then came to the village square.

At this time, the sky was completely bright, and there were already people in the village moving, Wang Lung walked to the big bell, which was called the "notification bell", and once there was an emergency in the village, he would call everyone to come over and discuss by ringing the bell.

Wang Lung picked up a wooden stick and struck the bronze bell.

"Dangdang Dang"

The loud bell spread in Wangjia Village, and soon, a group of people from Wangjia Village rushed to hear the sound.

Among them were the village chief and Wang Congming, and the village chief said unhappily: "Who rang the bronze bell early in the morning?" ”

Wang Lung said without hesitation: "It's me." ”

The village chief said indignantly: "Wang Long, why did you ring the bell early in the morning, don't you know that this bronze bell can only be rung when something major happens in our village?" If you do this, you are playing with us villagers, what kind of crime should you be guilty of. ”

Wang Lung didn't affect the village chief's emotions, and still said calmly: "Village chief, I just rang the bell because I had an urgent matter to discuss with everyone, can't I use it yet?" ”

The village chief said, "What is your urgent business?" ”

Wang Lung smiled and said, "To be polite, village chief, I remember that last night, when I went to your house to buy land, you treated me with respect, why did you see me today, but it was like a different person." ”

The village chief didn't blush at all and said, "You came to buy land, that's my guest, then I must be polite to you, but you are calling everyone over now, not to do business with me, why should I be polite to you." If you say something unpleasant, you're a fool, and if you want me to be polite to you, you have to weigh how much you weigh. ”

Wang Lung mocked in a frivolous tone: "I knew that the village chief was a hypocritical villain, but when I saw it today, I was really impressed." ”

The village chief revealed his true face in public, and he was annoyed and angry, and immediately pointed at Wang Lung's nose and scolded: "If you talk nonsense again, I will beat you." ”

In this feudal era, many times disputes are resolved by fists, and they are not caused by the dead, and they generally do not report to the officials, in a village, then whoever has the most power can do whatever they want in this village.

Wang Lung was not afraid, and said, "Come on, come on, beat me." ”

The village chief glared at Wang Lung, and then the evil came out of his guts, and smashed it towards Wang Lung with a punch.

But the fist speed was too slow, and Wang Lung looked like he had pressed the slow button while watching some TV series in his previous life.

Without waiting for the village chief's fist to smash over, Wang Lung directly punched out, and with a bang, it hit the village chief's stomach.

The village chief screamed, flew a few meters away, and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Wang Congming immediately glared at Wang Lung fiercely, and then said: "A fool, you dare to touch my father, you are too long." ”

Wang Congming clenched his fists, rushed towards Wang Lung, and then smashed Wang Lung with a punch.

Wang Congming is tall and powerful, this punch came very quickly, but Wang Lung didn't pay attention to it, a sweeping leg, not only avoided the punch that Wang Congming hit, but also swept Wang Congming's lower limbs, Wang Chong screamed, and fell to the ground.

Wang Lung shouted: "Mount Tai is on the top." ”

Wang Lung jumped high, and his body of one hundred and twenty catties pressed towards Wang Congming like a small mountain.

Wang Congming lay on the ground, too late to dodge, and after pressing Wang Long, he let out a miserable scream, spit out blood, and fainted.

Wang Lung stood up, then spat at Wang Congming, and said, "You deserve it." ”

When everyone saw this scene, they were all stupid.

In the village, the village chief is the same thing, but today someone dares to do something to him and his son, which is simply lawless.

The village chief had already stood up, and when he saw his son fainting, he immediately said angrily: "Wang Lung, I have to settle this account with you today before you can leave here." ”

Wang Lung said, "Okay." How do you count it? ”

The village chief said: "You knocked my son unconscious, and you must pay a huge amount of compensation." One thousand taels of silver. ”

Wang Lung said: "Damn, if you still go to rob, I remember a month, there was a beggar who just lay in your rice shop for a while, in order to get rid of the beggar, you beat the beggar half to death without losing money, why do you want me to pay money to your son, it was you two who provoked me first, I am justified defense." Let me tell you the village chief, I won't pay your son for medical expenses today. If you have a kind, you will go to the government to sue me, and see if the government will take care of this matter. ”

The village chief gritted his teeth and thought, is this a fool's thinking? Why haven't I seen him for a few days, this fool has become so eloquent.

The village chief said, "If you don't pay for the medical expenses, don't blame me." You've seen it, guys. This fool was unreasonable, and injured me and my son, and we must drive him out of the village today. Don't let him harm anyone else in this village. ”

However, the eyes of the masses are clear, and they are also clear about right and wrong, and they are indifferent.

The village chief was annoyed and angry: "You don't listen to me anymore, I am the village head, or the landlord, if you don't want to increase the rent of the land, then listen to me, and drive this fool out of Wangjia Village with me." ”

All of a sudden, the square was in an uproar.

But in the end, the masses still couldn't do immoral things against their conscience, which made Wang Lung happy, thinking that the villager was still quite cute, and did not give in to the rape.

Wang Lung smiled and said: "See, the villagers don't listen to you, it seems that you have done those immoral things that have left a bad impression in the hearts of the villagers, if you reflect on it, then one day you will betray your relatives." ”

The village chief pointed at Wang Long and said unwillingly, "You wait for me." ”

With that, the village chief squatted down, picked up his son, and left the square.
