Chapter 17 There is a way to steal
Wang Dian on the large slope in the east of the city is one of the most wealthy families in Andu County.
On the day when the Beiyong army entered the city, Wang Dian was frightened and paid filial piety non-stop. Grain, cloth, fields, and jewelry, more than a dozen carts were pulled, which shows sincerity.
Since the Jin State entered the Yellow River Valley, it has not relied on the gate valve family like the Qi State, but it will still give some privileges and preferential treatment to the family family.
This is the survival of large households. paid tribute and saved his family's lives, and Wang Dian was a little relieved.
"On the book valve, my great-ancestor and the Taiyuan Wang clan were originally a branch, and they are a big family in this world, which is more expensive than the Yingchuan Chen family, not to mention the Xuzhou Feng family. But more than 20 years after the founding of the Qi Dynasty, I was ostracized by my own family, and the court refused to reuse it...... On the contrary, it was Feng Jingting's old dog, who married the stepwife of the Yingchuan Chen family, and climbed to the Lanling Xiao family, taking advantage of the situation to rise to the ......"
"The prince is condescending. Fortunately, the change of dynasties and whoever is in power have to win over the family. When the situation is stable, the prince will recommend him to see if he can serve as the county guard......"
In the middle of the night, the lights of the Wang family were bright, Wang Dian was kneeling in front of the rosewood case, chatting with the diners, counting Feng Jingting's villain behavior, and suddenly there was a commotion in the outer courtyard.
"The bandits are coming...... The head of the house, it's terrible, the bandits are coming......"
A family member rushed to the eaves, panicking.
"The bandits, the bandits kidnapped Da Langjun and asked the head of the family to go out and talk......"
Wang Dian's brain was so hot that he almost fainted.
Wang Chao is his sister-in-law, and the meat on the tip of his heart is wow.
Since the Beiyong army entered the city, some of the original defenders of Andu fell into the grass and absconded from the people. In order to be fed, it is inevitable that there will be thieves and robbers, but large households have family soldiers, and generally rogue bandits dare not enter the house.
Wang Dian couldn't believe that someone would hit the Wang family with their ideas.
"The Beiyong army respects me for three points, which bandit is so bold?"
In the courtyard, a group of bandits in black clothes, black pants and black scarves and masked faces, about 20 people, with big knives hanging on Wang Chao's neck.
The eldest Langjun of the palace was untidy, with bare legs under the thin robe, calling "Father help", and there was also a woman who was also untidy, who was Wang Dian's concubine Shan, with her head bowed and her body trembling.
This battle made Wang Dian a little dizzy.
"Wait for what a big dog! Don't let me go quickly......"
"Prince." A muffled voice came from behind the masked bandits.
Wang Dian looked over.
This man was covered in a black scarf, with a slender body, much thinner than the other bandits, but unexpectedly he was the leader of the bandits.
"Today, I was able to easily catch Ling Lang, thanks to the prince's favored concubine. If it weren't for the two of them staying at night and breaking up the guards, it wouldn't have gone so smoothly. โ
Wang Dian had just seen that situation and already had a bad premonition.
But the ugliness of the family is not publicized, and he is not good at asking.
Now when he said it in front of the soldiers and miscellaneous servants, his old face was flushed, a bad breath was surging, and his whole person was shaking.
The bandit leader kicked Wang Dalangjun, who was lying on the ground, with cold eyes and a cold voice.
"The son adulterates the father and the concubine, and the morality is extinguished. Once this person is cheap, he is worthless. If the prince refuses to ransom him, he will not be reluctant, as long as he gives one-third of the grain deposit, he will help the prince clear the door and kill this evil obstacle. If the prince licks the calf deeply, the price will be differentโwell, at least half of your family's food. โ
"Brute!" Wang Dian smacked his son and took the opportunity to look around.
There were about twenty bandits, and there were thirty or forty soldiers in his house. Moreover, the Beiyong army will patrol around at night, and the bandits may not dare to kill people blatantly-
"What is the prince thinking?" The bandit leader spoke again, "Poor and at the end of the road, what don't you dare to do?" Prince, a certain patience is limited. โ
After that, the bandit leader snorted coldly, "Bring people up." โ
I saw two dirty, barely visible men dragged to the front by the bandits, and the scars were clearly visible under their torn clothes, as if they had been beaten and tortured.
"These are the two sons of the Xu family in the south of the city, and they were unlucky to fall into the hands of a certain person. Xu's father had more than a dozen sons, and he refused to give food to ransom ......"
The bandit leader quietly introduced the identity of the person who came, and said not lightly or seriously:
"Keep the useless people, chop it! Open the king's eyesโ"
The black-clothed bandit did not respond, like a wood without emotion, and before the sound fell, two three-foot-long knives stabbed down.
"Ahh
The screams pierced the night sky, and the two fell to the ground, their eyes wide open.
Dark blood flowed from their bodies, hideous and terrifying, as if they were dead.
Wang Dian's face changed, and Mrs. Wang, who heard the news, screamed even more, and sat on the ground on the spot, begging Wang Dian to save her son......
"Okay, good, I'll redeem, redeem ......"
Wang Dian didn't expect the bandits to dare to kill.
Da Lang is no longer angry, he is also the eldest son, and he still wants his life.
"Open the granary, and let the strong men take ...... for yourselves"
As soon as the servant answered, the bandit leader laughed.
"The rice grain in the warehouse will be left to the prince for emergency, so don't be greedy."
Then, in those dark eyes, a sly smile appeared, "Strange didn't make it clear." A certain grain store refers to the underground cellar of the prince. โ
Wang Dian was so shocked that his old face was distorted.
In troubled times, which big family does not store grain in advance?
Under the Wang family's mansion, the three-story cellar is impregnable. Before the war, Wang Dian hoarded gold, silver, jade, and colorful silk grains into the ground, and the grain stored in them was enough for their family to eat for 20 years......
But who leaked the news of this matter, how could the bandits know?
"Don't be afraid, prince." The voice of the bandit leader is kind, and it sounds very pleasant, "I have also read the book of sages, and I am not an unreasonable person." The so-called thief also has a way, and it is never difficult for someone to be forced. It's a big deal to learn that too much to keep the public, and a fire burned down the house......"
"Give...... Give ......" Wang Dian sat on the ground with weak legs, hugged Mrs. Wang and cried.
โ
The bandits came prepared, and the boat carrying the grain docked on the river outside the back house.
Fortunately, the bandit leader counts when he speaks, and when he says that he takes half of it, he really only takes half of it.
Seeing this, Wang Dian was a little lucky, and he met a righteous bandit.
Half of the grain is worth it in exchange for the lives of the whole family.
"The prince doesn't have to send each other, Ling Lang will return home tomorrow afternoon."
The bandit leader gave a salute to Wang Dian, very polite, and then waved his hand, letting Wang Dalang, who was almost fainting, go out, and also intimately cleaned up the corpse and bloodstains, and then politely took away the five pigs of the Wang family, two big cows, as well as a few jars of cured meat and various degrees of eating and drinking, and then left satisfied.
"Phew! It's suffocating me. โ
As soon as they reached the center of the river, the two corpses crawled up, rubbing their arms and twisting them.
One of them even blinked his eyes to ask for credit.
"Girl, is the villain acting well?"
The bandit leader did not remove the face towel, but a smile could be seen in the eye sockets.
"Very good, go back and reward your deeds!"
A group of bandits laughed.
Those two corpses were Chang Da and Ah Lou.
The wounds on their bodies are real, and they are all due to the pure flames. The blood shed is fake, and the blood bag made by Feng Yun himself was broken with a single stab, which was enough to bluff people.
Ah Lou grinned, smiling so much that he couldn't see his teeth.
He is very proud that he has done a big thing, and he is not an idle eater.
"It's amazing that a villain can make a meritorious service even if he is injured."
"Thanks to the girl's good plan." Xing Bing glanced at him.
Twelve Niang is brave and resourceful, she can get so much food without losing a single soldier, and she has also won the reputation of a "righteous bandit", he admires it very much......
This is even more true of the rest of the Mei Ling tribe.
One by one, they were excited.
"We're going to make a living from it from now on."
"That's right! Follow the twelve mothers, not afraid of hunger. โ
"There are still several large households in Andu County, and there must be a grain storage ......"
Bandits, thieves and thieves are the norm in the war era. The people's livelihood is difficult, and when people can't eat enough, all courtesy, righteousness and shame are all empty talk.
A group of Mei Linglang had a lively discussion and was full of interest.
Feng Yun waited for them to finish being happy before calmly pouring a scoop of cold water.
"Just this once, not the next one."
"Huh? Why is that? Mei Linglang was puzzled.
The river breeze is gentle in the middle of the night.
Feng Yun looked at the water waves at night, and said coolly: "If you want to break into ghosts after walking at night for a long time, doing this kind of business, not only will we not live and work in peace and contentment, but whether we can save our lives is another matter......
The faces of the crowd immediately fell.
"I'm not afraid of death!"
"Exactly. It is better to die of hunger than to die of hunger. โ
Feng Yun looked at their swollen blood, knowing that it was the confidence given by these grains, he immediately smiled, and a slight chill appeared in his eyes.
"Since I know about Wang Dian's grain collection, do you think Pei Dian doesn't know?"
Everyone looked at each other and was very surprised.
The Wang family is a big family, and it is not strange that the family has surplus food, but the strange thing is where did the girl learn about the underground cellar?
Feng Yun smiled slightly.
Of course, she can't tell others that the person who went to Wang's house to grab grain in her previous life was Pei Zhen - Wang Dian's cellar was also copied by Pei Zhen himself.
When the Beiyong army was most short of food, the big families in the city were copied all over, and Wang Dian naturally couldn't escape......
It is equivalent to that she robbed General Pei Da's business in advance.
Feng Yun sat on the boat and looked at the dark sky, with no expression, "In the future, you will all start a family, marry a wife and have children." Once the stigma falls, how will the future generations raise their heads and behave as people? โ
"Remember! Tonight's events are rotten in my stomach. Who dares to spit out half a word......"
She glanced at Ah Lou, "The corpse on the boat is the end." โ
Ah Lou was stunned and sneered lowly.
All Mei Linglang laughed, very happy.
"The girl is smart, we follow the girl, and we are no longer afraid of going hungry."
"Yes! There are girls here, and General Pei is sheltered, no one will be afraid of ...... in the future."
Feng Yun pursed his lips.
If you want General Pei to know that she robbed the grain first, I don't know what kind of mood she feels, and shelter her?
However, she left half of the food for Pei Zhen, which was kind.
"Xing Bing." Feng Yun watched the boat sail into the river and ordered in a low voice, "Let's go around from the Huayue Stream." โ
