Chapter 19: Eating the Closed Door
Hearing the sound of the city gates opening, those who were lying or sitting or sleeping or waking up exploded as if the faucet had suddenly been turned on.
"The gates are open!"
"Hurry up, grab something and rush in!"
"Don't sleep, the gates are open!"
"Who the stomped on my face?!"
Where had the people of Xiushui Village seen this battle, and they were so frightened that they retreated immediately, lest they be affected by these crazy refugees.
The soldiers guarding the city gate seemed to be accustomed to seeing this kind of thing, and immediately shouted at Zheng Daqiao: "Take your people in!" Then the other soldiers clenched the long knives in their hands, and stared fiercely at the rushing refugees.
"Stand back! Go back! ”
"Did you hear that? One step further, the knife in our hand will not be long-sighted! ”
It's a pity that the refugees are crazy, no one stops, but the front one is so frightened that he wants to retreat when he sees the knife, but unfortunately he is pushed forward by the refugees behind him.
One of them was even more unlucky, and he swooped at the sword in the soldier's hand with great precision, and the next moment blood splattered everywhere, and the noisy crowd finally calmed down.
Although the soldier didn't expect someone to pounce on him, he didn't even blink his eyes, and only sneered: "Still making trouble?" Whoever dares to rush into the city again will be the next to die! ”
At this time, Zheng Daqiao had entered the city with people, and the city gate was also quickly closed by the soldiers, and there were people lying on the ground whose life and death were unknown for reference, and the rest of the refugees did not rush, and they all collapsed their shoulders and turned their heads angrily to return to the position they had just been waiting for.
After a long time, Xia Dazhuang trembled and said, "He, how can they kill people..."
Xia Dahai stuffed the book in his hand into his arms, and scolded angrily: "The world is declining, cruel and unkind!" ”
Xia Huai: "..."When is it, her uncle still has time to read?" Maybe it's because her ideological realm hasn't reached a high level, so she can't understand it.
Zhang Meihua couldn't understand it even more, she directly took out the book from Xia Dahai's arms and knocked it hard: "I'll let you see it, take a look!" ”
Xia Dahai hugged his head and shouted a little confused: "Why are you beating me well!" Sure enough, his family still has too much food, and if he can't eat enough, he won't have the strength to beat him! Maybe he should hint at the old lady and let her save some food!
"Ahem." Xia Dashan hurriedly rescued his eldest brother: "Look, Village Chief Zhang has also passed!" ”
Everyone looked at it, and it was indeed Village Chief Zhang.
At this time, Village Chief Zhang happened to walk to the city gate, only a few steps away from the soldiers guarding the gate, but before he could continue to move forward, he was stopped by the soldier with a long knife: "Stop!" Come again! ”
Village Chief Zhang's heart jumped, and he nodded with a smile, and took out a piece of silver from his arms: "My lord, you can be accommodating, let our family go in, there are few of us..."
The soldier glanced at the silver in Village Chief Zhang's hand, immediately took it back, and scolded coldly: "Stand back!" Now that there is no place for you in the city, go back! ”
Village Chief Zhang's face darkened, and then he smiled awkwardly: "Adults are not too little, as long as we can let our family in, this..." ”
"I said, don't you understand people?" The soldier angrily held the knife and walked forward, waving the knife: "I said, no one can enter the city!" ”
Seeing that the tip of the knife was almost reaching in front of his eyes, Village Chief Zhang finally realized that the soldier was not entering, and a fire also rose in his heart, pointing at the soldier and scolding: "No one can enter? I'm really blind, you just put a dozen people in! It's nice to say, it's not that we don't have money! ”
The soldier was scolded by Village Chief Zhang and sneered: "Oh? How do you know if they're in and won't come out? ”
Village Chief Zhang was shocked when he heard this: "What do you mean by this?" "Could it be that these soldiers are not going to do anything after taking the money? If that's the case, isn't the money going down the drain?
In an instant, Village Chief Zhang's mood became inexplicably complicated. I envy Zheng Daqiao and his party for being able to enter the city, hate the soldiers, look down on people, and secretly rejoice that they don't have to spend money in vain...
"People are going into the city to purchase, and they will come out in two hours, what about you? You want to get into the city and not get out, can these two things be the same? ”
The soldier is not stupid, Zheng Daqiao gave money to go to the city to buy, he was both convenient and made money for food and wine. Anyway, they won't be afraid to cheat when the time comes, someone will kick them out!
But the person in front of him obviously doesn't mean this, and he still wants to settle down in the county with just a little money? Don't say that he doesn't look down on this money, even if he lacks this money, he won't dare to do it! The county magistrate knows, it's a trivial matter that he lost his job, who will he cry with if he loses his life?!
"What? Are they just going to buy? ”
"Hmph, what about that? How else do you think I can put people in? The soldier raised the long knife in his hand again: "Okay, hurry back!" ”
Village Chief Zhang went over proudly, but came back with his tail between his legs.
The villagers of Xiushui Village vaguely guessed what Village Chief Zhang was discussing with the soldiers, and they would not be stupid enough to think that Village Chief Zhang was planning for them, so when Village Chief Zhang came back, the villagers' expressions were not very good.
Especially Li Sangen and Wang Heizi, who are the most stingy in the village, as if they couldn't see the unhappiness of Village Chief Zhang, they stepped forward one by one and teased:
"Yo, what is the village chief doing here?"
"Are you asking if the people of our village can enter the city? I said that you are also very good village chief, if you can really enter the city, we Xiushui Village villagers have to thank you! If my Wang Heizi marries a daughter-in-law and gives birth to a baby, my baby will set up a tablet for you to worship in the future! ”
The other villagers couldn't help but smile when they heard this, and they were so angry that Village Chief Zhang was about to smoke, and waved his sleeves to avoid them.
On the contrary, Xia Huai felt a little pity in her heart, she knew that Zheng Daqiao could enter the city, so she should have a good relationship with the other party, maybe she could take her in! Even if you can't get in, you can ask the other party to help you buy something!
At this time, in Lin'an County.
Zheng Daqiao, who was muttered by Xia Huai, frowned: "Why has the price of this grain risen so much?" ”
The attitude of the shopkeeper of the grain shop was much worse than that of the shopkeeper in Lishui Town, and he snorted when he heard this: "It looks like you have just entered the city, right?" The price of this grain has already risen, if you don't want to buy it, don't buy it, don't stand here and hinder my business! ”
Zheng Daqiao's subordinate Ma Da couldn't help but stand up and scold: "What do you mean? How dare you talk to our big brother like that? Do you still want to do business? ”
Zheng Erqiao nodded and agreed: "That's it!" You're so rude! ”
Although the shopkeeper of the grain shop was a little frightened by Zheng Daqiao's team, he was not frightened, and immediately pointed outside and said: "Yo, dare to use force when you come to our Lin'an County?" See anyone patrolling outside? As long as you dare to do it, you will be arrested and put in prison the next moment! Come on! You have the ability to beat me! ”
Ma was so angry that he was about to clench his fists and go to teach the shopkeeper to be a man, Zheng Daqiao then said: "Ma Da! ”
"Big brother, it's unbearable!"
Zheng Erqiao nodded: "Yes, he owes a beating, and he is obedient after cleaning up!" ”
"Since you still call me boss, you have to listen to me." Zheng Daqiao gave Ma Da a reassuring look, glared at his own brother again, and then stepped forward: "I'm sorry, my people are young and vigorous... I also asked the shopkeeper to help us pick out some good rice and wheat flour. ”
They have to bear the danger of darts, so the wages are very high, and they have money in hand but have not started a family, so they are more willing to eat.
It's already hard to walk darts, and if you don't eat well, won't you suffer?
