Chapter 53: It was County Lieutenant Zhang who asked me to do this
This time, Yang Zhutou was really scared.
He has been a head hunter for so many years, and it is the first time he has encountered such a fierce person.
But he also knew that if he recruited the people behind him, his family would also die.
I could only grit my teeth and stiffen out: "I don't know what you're talking about, I'm Qinglongbo's person, I didn't pretend." ”
His voice fell, but Chen Hai was not used to him, his hand rose and fell, and his left hand and left foot were also cut off.
"Ah...... Yes...... If you treat me like this, Qinglongbo will not let you go. ”
At this time, he was still pouring dirty water on himself.
Lin Fan forcibly suppressed the urge to break this person's body into pieces, and said coldly: "I am Qinglongbo, you tell me, how can I not let myself go?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the crowd, which was still slightly noisy, instantly fell silent.
Whether it was the captured officials or the people, they all looked at Lin Fan with fearful eyes.
"According to the law of my Great Zhou, in the name of honors and nobles, oppress and exploit the people, no matter how much the amount, it is a capital crime, and the family members are assigned to wear armor as slaves."
Lin Fan remembered this law very clearly.
At the time, he also found the law inhumane.
But now that I see such a miserable situation of the people, I put myself in the shoes of the motion.
He even felt that the law was light.
Because these people, in the name of nobles, exploited and oppressed the people, causing too many families to be ruined.
"If you don't recruit the people behind the scenes, Ben can't guarantee that your family will stay alive on the way."
As soon as Lin Fan's words came out, Yang Zhutou, who was about to lose his mind in pain, couldn't help but regain a little clarity.
He looked at Lin Fan's eyes, with hatred, fear, and regret.
In short, it was very complicated, he didn't expect that County Lieutenant Zhang asked him to do this, and all kinds of assumptions did not appear.
This Qinglongbo had no scruples at all, and did not arrest people to confront the county government, but directly killed the killer.
I thought of the last threatening word.
He coaxed, he could die, his family was innocent.
"Uncle, please let my family go, I said, I will take it all, it was County Lieutenant Zhang who asked me to do this, and the little one has no choice but to act as ordered."
"County Lieutenant Chen?"
Lin Fan asked.
"Yes, that's him."
Yang Tou Ninja said in pain.
"Didn't you have to cut off your limbs?"
Lin Fan replied coldly, and said to Chen Hai: "Find a torch and seal his bleeding limbs, so as not to bleed too much and die, Ben Bo can't see this tragic situation of others the most." ”
Chen Hai pretended to be dumb, so he didn't answer, but hurried to his horse, he prepared a torch just in case.
When the people around heard this, they said in their hearts, this uncle is definitely a devil.
If you cut off your limbs, you might as well let him die!
Isn't it a sin to give him a torch to stop the bleeding?
Lin Fan naturally didn't care what the onlookers thought.
He knew that it was a trick played by the county lieutenant, so he knew that there was some trouble in this matter.
After all, the county lieutenant is in charge of public security and arrest, and there are at least 100 servants under him, who are ready to be dispatched at any time.
If they pass, they will have to capsize if they don't get it right.
So Lin Fan picked up the brush and paper that had registered the amount for the people, wrote a handwritten letter, and handed it to a guard.
"Take him to Sect Leader Fang, and ask him to bring three hundred heavily armed soldiers to the county government to stand by."
"Yes, uncle."
After the guard responded, he carefully took the handwriting, turned over his horse, and returned to the cottage.
Lin Fan suddenly thought that another guard was going to the county with people, and it was already afternoon when he arrived in the county, so he was afraid that he would already be hungry.
So Lin Fan wrote another handwritten letter and handed it to another guard, asking him to go to Hongyun Building to find Yun Niang and ask her to prepare more than a dozen tables of meals, and he wanted to entertain the people.
The guards took it and hurried to the county.
After arranging these, Lin Fan looked at the people who had never left, and his eyes were staring directly at the piles of grain.
Lin Fan reacted instantly.
These people should have no rice to cook.
So Lin Fan said to the people: "Fellow villagers, Ben Bo is too late to make you suffer, and this king is very guilty, so this year, your thirty taxes and one field tax, Ben Bo will exempt you, and these bastards will forcibly collect your poll tax and harsh taxes, and Ben Bo will return all of them to you." ”
"You have the previous tax payment voucher, and you can go to Qinglong Village together tomorrow to collect it."
Hearing this, all those people became excited, knelt down and kowtowed, shouting, long live uncle.
"Fathers and fellow villagers, get up, this matter is Ben Bo did not notice, let the little people take advantage of the loophole, it is Ben Bo who is sorry for you, in order to express his apologies, Ben Bo will give you ten catties of food each, everyone will go home to cook first, fill your stomach, and go to Qinglongzhai to receive food tomorrow."
After Lin Fan said this, the people who had just gotten up knelt down again.
Lin Fan once again helped up the people closest to him.
Then he looked at Huang Shen: "Old village chief, you go to distribute the grain, and you must let every person receive it." ”
"Yes, uncle."
Huang Shen hurriedly responded.
Then they began to beckon the people to line up to receive food.
The guards also assisted.
It took an hour of busy work to finish distributing it to everyone.
There was still some grain left, and Lin Fan did not take it away, but returned the grain to the old and weak women and children first according to the amount of taxes paid, so that they would not have to travel again tomorrow.
In this way, it took another half an hour to return the grain.
With this attitude, those people who were still skeptical were completely convinced.
They believe that if they go to Qinglongzhai tomorrow, they will definitely be able to get food.
Looking at the people who had left with a thousand thanks, Lin Fan had a slight smile on his face.
It's just that the afterglow swept to those officials, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by a murderous one.
Because Lin Fan knew that these officials all knew the laws of the Great Zhou, and they must also know the punishment of impersonating the nobles to collect taxes.
But they still aided the abuse.
Even if he directly beheads them now, this person is not wronged.
"Take these dog things and go to the county."
Lin Fan commanded the guards, and the group went to the county.
After another hour or so, the group arrived outside the county seat.
At this time, Fang Qinghan and his soldiers had already arrived.
The guards and villagers who had been left behind earlier also arrived.
After the meeting, Lin Fan ordered Fang Qinghan to lead the soldiers to surround the county government and control the county lieutenant Zhang.
Worried that Fang Qinghan didn't know County Lieutenant Zhang, he asked Fang Qinghan to bring the captured officer.
Fang Qinghan, who was dressed in military uniform, received the order and immediately led the soldiers into the city.
Lin Fan said to the people who came to the county, as well as the guards: "Presumably everyone is hungry, today Benbo has a treat and will take you to eat delicious food." ”
In this way, the group went to Hongyun Building.
When I arrived at the door of Hongyun Building, I looked at the luxurious restaurant, and when I came in, I was wearing a big man wearing silk and satin.
The villagers were a little timid.
Don't dare to go in.
Seeing them like this, Lin Fan smiled at them and said, "Fellow villagers, don't worry, this restaurant is opened by Benbo." ”
