The warm winter sun gradually set in the west, and the chill around began to be arrogant.

Shang Qing and the owner of the second village were speechless all the way, and slowly came to the meeting hall of the cottage.

She walked in the front row and crossed the threshold first, and saw that the stools around her were already full of people, and the rest of the small leaders in the village and some authoritative elders had arrived.

It seems that this Li You has been premeditated for a long time, and Shang Qing secretly thought to himself when he saw this posture.

Li You is the name of the owner of the second village, but since he joined Huangshanzhai, everyone has not called him by his real name for a long time.

However, Shang Qing did not have stage fright, she went straight to the main seat in the hall and sat down, and then looked at the second master of the village and waited for him to explain today's topic.

Seeing her calm appearance, Li You sneered in his heart, and then said in a pleasant voice:

"Summoning you here today is a great thing to discuss with you, Zhang Anling has sent someone to appease me and others, and his people have words, the new Nie County Shou is unparalleled in benevolence, and wants to rest with the people, and has a promise in front, no more endowments in the future, and the conscription will also be replaced by barbarians!"

The more Li You spoke, the more excited he became, he looked at Shang Qing, who was unimpressed, and then said:

"Xie Lingchang is deeply convinced of the words of the county guard, and he has ordered the selection of a flat wasteland, just wait for me to go down the mountain, and then we can cultivate there in the spring. I've been here before, and there is a river near the left for drinking water and irrigation, and the land is also rich......"

Li Youbalabala was like a poster's anchor with goods, but Shang Qing interrupted him impatiently after hearing the general meaning:

"What, listening to the meaning of the second village master, do you want to be lobbyists for these dog officials?"

The ruthless words of the master of the village made Li You a little unable to get off the stage, and he forcibly suppressed his anger and explained:

"The owner of the village has misunderstood, and I'm not thinking about the way out for the people in the cottage......"

"A way out? Although my Huangshanzhai is now a little harder, it can be regarded as living and working in peace and contentment, no matter the old and the young, there is no shortage of food, why do you need other ways out? ”

Shang Qing refuted coldly again.

"The lord of the village is inappropriate, we are thieves after all, if we miss this opportunity, he will come with heavy troops in the county, how can the old and young in the village be safe? What's more, the land here is barren and there is a shortage of water, if it is not connected with the villages under the mountain, how can there be no shortage of food? ”

The two of them argued with each other back and forth, but they didn't come to a conclusion for a long time......

Although Shang Qing is the owner of Dazhai, what Li Post said is not completely unreasonable, and if it is really like what he said, then the conditions given by the county order this time are indeed rich.

But Shang Qing knows that this condition can't be believed, even if it's true now, everyone has no reliance when they go down the mountain, what should these dog officials do if they turn their faces and settle old accounts?

In the end, in desperation, she spoke out all these concerns, but Li You scoffed when she heard it.

He refuted that Shang Qing was just speculating on what had not happened, and he also had ulterior motives to change the topic, saying that Shang Qing was unwilling to give up the power of the lord of the village, so he repeatedly obstructed it.

Several small leaders and elders who supported Li You also spoke out at this time.

But Shang Qing did not back down, he had expected this scene today, she turned her head to look around and signaled, and many old people in the village came out to support her.

As for Chen Wentian's discovery of Li You's fake accounts, she didn't plan to bring it up now, after all, then she and Li You would have to completely tear their faces, and the account books had been kept by them, so if they really wanted to be more serious, they couldn't come up with evidence......

For a while, the hall was noisy, and the two groups of people argued with each other.

Shang Qing felt a little sad in his heart, the original Huangshanzhai had never happened like this, everyone loved each other in this small world, and the days were very harmonious.

But since Li You, the second owner of the village, came, the atmosphere in the village has gradually begun to change......

Due to her lack of age and experience, Shang Qing didn't know what the reason was, but based on a woman's intuition, she had been guarding against her right-hand man.

She even regretted a little that she shouldn't have let Li You go up the mountain to join the gang in the first place.

Of course, this is just a thought, after all, the second village master has made great contributions before going up the mountain......

A year ago, Shang Qing took the young people in the village down the mountain to "loot", but he didn't expect to meet the Shanyue people who really came to loot!

Everyone in the village is Han people, the combat power is not high, and the number of people is also very different, where can they withstand these fierce barbarians......

Shang Qing had no choice but to lead everyone to take advantage of the terrain and fight and retreat.

Just when everyone was exhausted and in danger, it was Li You who took Xiang Yong to kill from one side, which shocked the leader of Shanyue for a while, so that Shang Qing and others could get out of danger......

After returning to Huangshanzhai with everyone, he took the opportunity to propose to join the gang and brought more than 100 villagers into the gang.

Shang Qing had just received a great favor, so he naturally agreed without thinking about it.

She is not a person who does not repay her kindness, she took great care of Li You and others when they first arrived, and also proposed that Li You be the second owner of the cottage, until she found that some bad changes gradually occurred in the village......

For example, the people in the village unconsciously become full of anger, and fights and brawls occur from time to time.

For example, a small number of people in the village, especially young people, have become a little restless, and always have the idea of going down to the mountains to trade or join the army anonymously......

For example, now, the important people in the village have begun to divide and argue, and there is a lot of trouble!

Shang Qing knew that this was not the way to go, so he shouted to stop everyone:

"Since my father, there have been old people in the village who have settled here, and now no matter what, going down the mountain is a major decision in the village, so let's express our opinions and make decisions based on the number of supporters!"

Then she took the lead in making a statement:

"I don't agree to accept appeasement and go down the mountain to reclaim the wasteland!"

Li You could not refuse this reasonable proposal, and everyone in the council began to "vote......

The obedience of the minority to the majority is not the patent of modern democracy, this method of decision has existed since ancient times, but the ancients did not summarize and refine it.

And this primitive way is not very friendly to Li You, he is the owner of the second village after all, and he has just joined the gang for a year, although the people who support him are quite loud, but after all, the number of people is still limited, and the result is naturally obvious......

————

The proposal of the second village owner to accept the appeasement was rejected.

Seeing that he looked like I was good for everyone, but you didn't appreciate it, and left angrily with his "supporters", Shang Qing couldn't be happy.

In the past, even if they were secretly on guard, the two sides could still get along, but today, everyone in the village can see that there is a big gap between the two.

What will the villagers think? Shang Qing thought as he walked back......

After all, Li You is kind to her, and there are many people in the village, they will feel that they are taking revenge, right?

Soon Shang Qing came to the place where he was separated from Chen Wentian again.

She found that the two younger brothers brought by Li You were still there, but their attitude towards Chen Wentian had changed significantly, and the three of them chatted without saying a word......

Seeing the master of Dazhai coming back, the two thieves also knew that it was time to leave, so they stepped forward to salute Shang Qing diligently.

Shang Qing bowed slightly, and his eyes kept looking at Chen Wentian, as if he was asking if he was okay, right?

Chen Wentian smiled and greeted the two who left, they were fooled by themselves......

"Things are all dealt with, it's getting late, it's a little cool here, let's go back to the house and continue talking~"
