Chapter 16: What the hell do you kid want to do?
"Xiao Zhao, why didn't this Xiao Yun come?"
Looking at Zhao Ming, who had changed into a regular suit and came over alone to serve tea, Master Feng had a strange look on his face.
"Alas, you kid, Xiao Yun is the first time, you are this energetic guy, and you don't know moderation, Xiao Yun is your mother-in-law now, if you don't treat her well, I can't spare you!"
Old Man Feng's expression became solemn.
Zhao Ming was a little embarrassed, but he was a little too carried away last night, stimulated by the drink, just like a pile driver.
It's bitter for Feng Yunyun.
However, although Feng Yunyun is young, she is indeed a beauty, both in figure and voice.
Last night, Zhao Ming saw Feng Yunyun's unique bel canto talent.
"Sir, I... I'll pay attention next time. ”
"Are you still called master?"
Master Feng looked playful and said with a smile.
"I've seen my father-in-law!"
Zhao Ming also rarely showed a smile, in fact, it is a good thing to have such a marriage.
At least he finally had a place to stay.
Since his rebirth, he has been the son of an ordinary farmer.
In fact, the family was quite wealthy, and my grandfather's generation also left nearly a dozen acres of land for the family to live.
But the old Zhao family is too capable of giving birth, plus Zhao Ming, the youngest, there are a total of five brothers.
Among them, the second and third were all arrested and went to the front line to fight, and the fourth died early as soon as he was born.
Later, when the famine broke out, most of the food in the family was robbed, and the family saw that more and more people were fleeing the famine, and there was not a single grain that could be grown in this land.
simply joined the army of escapees, the first month was fine, the family still lived on each other, stumbling along the way, although there were troubles, but the three strong laborers outsiders did not dare to covet it.
But there are many people, and the rations are consumed quickly, and in less than a month, Zhao's father and Zhao's mother cried and shouted to sell Zhao Ming.
Zhao Ming's reaction to this kind of thing is very normal, and the relationship between the reborn and the original parents of this body is not close, so if they are separated, they will be separated.
In the end, he changed half a catty of grain, but the merchant was also a conscienceless, and Zhao Ming didn't say anything about the dirty work.
Later, Zhao Ming learned that this was to see that he was looking like a Peugeot and was going to sell it in some special kilns in the south.
Helplessly, Zhao Ming ran away, and then there was a follow-up scene of escaping alone.
Now that Master Feng is courteous to him, it is fake that he is not moved.
"Xiao Zhao, you have a bright brain, tell me how long our famine will last?"
"The guarantee is two years, and it will even reach four or even five years!"
Zhao Ming thought for a moment and replied, he came up with the answer by recalling the memories of his previous life, and remembered that it seemed that this drought had lasted for a total of five years.
"Hmm....." Master Feng nodded when he heard this, and he didn't say anything or disapprove.
"Then you say, if we Fengjiazhuang want to continue to gain a foothold here in the future, what should we do? What do you need to prepare now? ”
"Buy guns, train soldiers, grab food!"
Zhao Ming's words were concise and to the point, but what he said made Master Feng a little surprised.
This kind of thing doesn't happen casually.
"Xiao Zhao, our Fengjiazhuang's rations can last for two years at most, do you really want to get to that point?" Master Feng was a little embarrassed.
This buying guns and training soldiers is not uncommon in some big villages, and who hasn't had a private arm.
Just take the initiative to grab food, and there are generally very few.
Big families don't have to worry about eating and drinking on weekdays, even if they used to embezzle land and property, they have to find a reason, and the most critical point is that who is robbing grain and grabbing grain?
In this year of famine, who still has extra food to grab? If this is robbed, I am afraid that more people will starve to death.
"Uncle Yue, my son-in-law said something unpleasant, we still have too many people in Fengjiazhuang!"
"There are quite a lot of people, but most of the people in Zhuangzi are tenants of my Feng family, and several generations have followed our Feng family to eat. If this drives them away..... I'm afraid this is not good! ~”
Master Feng was even more embarrassed, he felt that the famine would indeed not be just this year, but he didn't believe it in five years.
Master Feng's answer was unexpected, Zhao Ming nodded, since it would not work to eliminate some superfluous people, then there was only other way.
"Then you can only buy guns, train soldiers and grab food! Uncle Yue, since you don't want to throw up the banker, then we can only rob others ourselves. ”
"But.... This gun is not easy to get, and who should be robbed of this robber? The guards of the big families are no less than ours. ”
"Uncle Yue, as long as you want to grab it, my son-in-law has a goal now! As long as you can get me fifty rides, this may be done! ”
Zhao Ming said that he was already solemnly clenching his fists, obviously having a draft in his heart.
"Oh! ~”
Master Feng was a little interested.
Now it seems that there is no shortage of food, but if you are open to eat, you have to see the bottom this year, save some food, and whether you can last until the end of the year next year is a question.
"It seems that Xiao Zhao has already planned, can you tell me who this target is, how much food can be grabbed, and is there any trouble?"
Who is too little to eat these days?
As for the fifty horses, they can still get together in Fengjiazhuang, and it is better to find a good horseback rider.
"Uncle Yue, do you know this Feng Xiang?"
"Oh, of course I know, this is the place of powerhouse!"
"Then you should have heard that Feng Xiang is fighting now, right?"
"I've heard that some time ago, Mr. Feng sent people to attack Fengxiang, it seems that the bandits and warlords there are entrenched here, what are they called kidnappers.
The kidnapper was a cripple, and in his early years he worked as a swordsman in the Fuping area, and later joined the Yasukuni Army.
I heard that he seemed to be a big official, but he later lost the battle and became a deserter, but this man was a thief and soon gathered a large group of remnants.
Not..... seems to have been entrenched in Fengxiang for several years, and he is the self-proclaimed division commander, but the top never approves of it, so everyone also calls him a bandit warlord. ”
Speaking of this, Master Feng couldn't help but be speechless.
"Tsk, I passed by there last year, and the walls were a lot taller, and a lot of trenches were dug. It seems that this is to treat Fengxiang as a den of thieves!
Why, you kid won't be going to attack Fengxiang with fifty horsemen, right?"
As he spoke, Master Feng felt that something was wrong, and his expression became solemn.
That night, he felt that Zhao Ming, this kid, was both wise and brave, but this courage was also splashing, and there was nothing he didn't dare to do.
"Uncle Yue, how can this be, the son-in-law has just gotten married, and this doll hasn't given birth yet, so you can't let Xiao Yun stay alive and widowed, right?" Zhao Ming smiled.
These words made Master Feng breathe a sigh of relief, but he was still quite nervous.
"You really don't want to attack Feng Xiang? So what kind of food are you going to grab? Whose bread? ”
"Yuezhang Fengxiang is now an iron pimple, I still pass by the way to escape the famine, it looks like a hedgehog, I don't dare to eat the bear's heart and leopard gall!"
"Then whose food are you going to rob?" Master Feng is even more curious, since you kid is not interested in Feng Xiang, why do you always mention this Feng Xiang?
Zhao Ming grinned, and spit out a few words in his mouth, "Grab the military rations!" ”
