Chapter 170: Li Ergou's Regret

Li Ergou stayed in the barracks.

He was a little confused.

He was thinking, is this the life he is pursuing?

Li Ergou actually secretly studied with the master outside the school.

He is literate.

His archery skills are not only because of his talent, but also because of his hard work.

The main reason why Li Ergou is reluctant to follow Hanzhi.

It was because Hanzhi at that time did not have an official position.

Hanzhi is just a mountain bandit leader.

And Hanzhi looks ambitious.

She trained so many soldiers, and a discerning person could see Han Zhi's thoughts.

Li Ergou is not stupid, Hanzhi gave him so much gold.

And Hanzhi's voice is very high, she is really good to those people in the village.

I also pay it back to school, and the tuition fee is so cheap.

Li Ergou once thought that it would be good to stay in the village forever.

But seeing that the villagers who were once familiar with him were directly arranged by Hanzhi to be exiled for 3,000 miles, and some were directly sentenced to beheading.

Those people are at fault, but they are just a little petty thieves.

There is no need for the death penalty, it is too much.

But Hanzhi bought off the government.

This is something Li Ergou can't bear.

So he left with his family.

Hanzhi didn't stop him.

What she said was true, allowing freedom to leave.

Li Ergou did not report Han Zhi for training privately.

Because there are still many villagers who are willing to follow Hanzhi, and another one, Hanzhi has the grace of knowing him.

Hanzhi gave him gold, and there was no hypocrisy to take it back.

That's a hundred taels of gold.

One hundred gold is money that Li Ergou has never been able to earn in his life.

Even if he took refuge in the Li family, the monthly money given to him by the Li family was only a few dozen taels of silver a month.

Li Ergou wants to make contributions and glorify his ancestors.

There's no guy who doesn't want to make a career.

Li Ergou is now Li Xiaoqi.

Li Ergou joined the army.

Became a member of the Cloud City Protectors.

He thought he could return to his hometown in style.

After all, the mountain bandits still can't see the light.

It's just that he didn't expect that Hanzhi would become the county magistrate of Pingyun County so quickly, and he was also in charge of Pingyun County.

Those people who followed Han Zhi suddenly changed from mountain bandits to court officials.

Although there is no grade.

But when you see the light, it's different.

As soon as Li Ergou returned to his hometown, not only did he not have a long face, but he was also despised by his hometown fathers and villagers.

Everyone thinks he is a traitor, and he betrayed Hanzhi after taking Hanzhi's gold.

The most important thing is that as soon as they knew that Li Ergou was in the city guards of Cloud City, they despised it even more, and threw rotten vegetable leaves into his old mansion.

Although Li Ergou's old house is in tatters, it rains heavily outside and light rain inside.

But this is also Li Ergou's home.

Li Ergou originally planned to repair it again, but now no one in his hometown is willing to help rebuild the house.

And now in the thoughts of those people in the village, Li Ergou doesn't want his family to live in the village.

Originally, Li Ergou wanted to live in the village.

Because after Hanzhi took office, he went crazy to build roads.

The road from the village to Pingyun County was built very wide.

Now many people in the village choose to work in Pingyun County.

The houses in the village and the cold branches have all been rebuilt.

All the houses built are exactly the same.

All the old houses were demolished.

The land in the village was also redivided.

Of course, there must be trouble in this.

Hanzhi is good, but the means are also very tough.

Those who do not listen to the arrangement of land division, the newly built houses have no share, and then the tax is still less than the previous proportion.

If you dare to make trouble, it's just a meal.

If there is still trouble, it will be that the whole village will be treated equally, and all the taxes will be paid according to the previous taxes.

The people behind them were crying and begging to divide the land according to Hanzhi's plan.

Hanzhi's plan is indeed good, and the village is now much more vibrant and energetic.

Most obviously, everyone is wearing new clothes.

Moreover, there are many outsiders in the village, and many female homeless people have chosen to marry villagers.

All the old bachelors in the village have taken wives.

Many of them are pregnant.

It is precisely because of this that the village hates Li Ergou so much.

The fact that the city guards of Yuncheng coaxed the homeless people to join the army, and then used the heads of the homeless people as the heads of the mountain bandits to invite merit has spread in Pingyun County, and everyone knows about it.

Li Ergou is a member of the city protector army, so he will naturally be despised by the villagers.

Li Ergou had no way to explain.

He is a local, and he knows very well how many mountain bandits there are in the local area.

All of those bandits were homeless.

Displaced people are not all good, either.

He also killed many homeless people who made trouble.

There is no right or wrong in this.

The homeless people are helpless for a bite to eat, but the people in the city are also innocent! Their lives are not easy either.

But there are not so many homeless people who make trouble.

It's normal to kill good people and get merit.

Naturally, he wouldn't do it, but someone in the city protector definitely did.

As for coaxing the homeless people to join the army and then killing the homeless, Li Ergou originally didn't believe it.

But Li Ergou had to believe it, because many female homeless people in the village were human witnesses.

All of them were rescued by Hanzhi.

But all this is the order of that Hou Ye, they are just some ordinary soldiers, how can they disobey the orders of their superiors, and that Hou Ye is a relative of Han Zhi.

Li Ergou originally thought that Hanzhi might have something to do with it at this time.

But Gu Yundian died.

And at present, the most suspected killer is Hanzhi.

Because the relationship between Hanzhi and the Gu family is not good.

It is precisely because of this that Li Ergou feels that Hanzhi has nothing to do with this matter.

Again, he felt that Hanzhi had a bottom line and would not do such a thing that would ruin his conscience.

And people's hearts are changeable.

If you don't use this iron-blooded means to suppress these cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods.

Han Zhi didn't have an official position before, so there was definitely no way to control so many people.

Whether Hanzhi is good or not depends on these people in Pingyun County.

None of the families wore tattered clothes, unlike before, when they didn't even have to wear torn clothes.

I can't get enough to eat.

But now, during the Chinese New Year, everyone is willing to go out for a meal.

The food in Pingyun County, even if he goes to Yuncheng, Li Ergou is very nostalgic.

The braised pork, as well as the marinated water, the marinated pork, don't mention how fragrant it tastes.

The people of Yuncheng obviously don't have such craftsmanship.

And now the villagers can eat once a week.

This is a reward for some of the best performers.

For example, the people in the village are good at farming, and those who work are excellent at work.

Hanzhi will have people distribute some of these coupons from time to time.

Five-fold rolls, that is, you can buy a pound of braised meat or other marinated supplies at half price.

Half price and the price of raw meat is about the same.

This is very cost-effective, everyone is willing to buy, and the coupon on it only has a one-month limitation period, and after a month, if you want to buy it, you can only buy it at the original price.
