Fang Ming chatted with He Yuqing for a few more words, listening to him just talk about the customs of the world, and never mentioned his own solicitation, knowing that the head of such a family had arrogance in his heart, and he couldn't let go of it, so he seemed to resist.

But how can this kind of talent be let go, besides, there is no obvious refusal, but there is still hope. Fang Ming made up his mind to pay attention, please go back, he will ask for benefits day and night in the future, and he will always be able to change his mind.

Then the order came out again, this time it was much more harmonious, everyone became their own people, and even Xie Jin's face was a little more gentle.

Fang Ming walked halfway and suddenly sensed that Qingyu Village Temple wished Li Dazhuang to use the divine fighting technique, and he was shocked, but he still sent out his divine power, and at the same time ordered, speed up.

As soon as he returned to Qingyu Village, he saw a figure pounce on him, crying: "Lord, you can count it back, let your subordinates wait well, it's anxious!"

When Fang Ming saw that it was He Dong, he asked suspiciously: "The deity has only been in the mountain for more than half a day, so what is the big deal?"

He Dong was in tears, bowed, and said, "...... Soon after the lord left in the morning, there were people from the Zhang family, a big household in Qingxi Township, who was a landlord, and there were more than 100 acres of land in Qingyu Village, and more than a dozen tenants, and the wheat harvest was originally abundant, and it was reasonable to collect the rent, but they raised the rent very high, and it was enough to eighty percent, almost forcing the tenants to break their homes, and then they said that as long as they said that they would move the village and destroy the land temple, it would be reduced back to fifty percent, otherwise, they would all follow this charter in the future......

Time goes back to last night.

The surname Zhang is the surname of Qingxi Township, but if you want to talk about the Zhang family, it still refers to Zhang Huaizheng's Zhang family, this Zhang Huai is the head of the Zhang family, Qingxi Township Lizheng, and Zhang Qingyun, the ancestor of Qingxi Township, is his great-grandfather.

Zhang Qingyun has done Jiupin Gongcao, but he also saved some money to pass on the family business, and also gave his children and grandchildren the position of Lizheng in Qingxi Township, so that he could pass on the family. After his death, he was sacrificed, became an ancestral spirit, blessed Qingxi Township, naturally took more care of his own line, and gave a lot of shelter, and the descendants of the Zhang family were also considered to be competitive, and took care of the family business to live and prosper, just in Qingxi Township, there were 500 acres of land, which can be regarded as a large household.

This night, Zhang Huaizheng was uneasy, even the fourth concubine he just asked did not arouse his interest, but he spent a lot of money to redeem it from the county town flower appreciation building, blowing, playing and singing, all of which are fine, and the kung fu of serving people is a must, and he usually spends the night with her. The little concubine relied on her own favor, and she still didn't give up, Zhang Huaizheng was angry, and it was a slap in the face that made her stop.

At this time, the housekeeper who had been watching his face next to him came up and asked, "Master, do you want a bowl of lotus seed tea, it is very effective to clear the heat and remove the fire." ”

This housekeeper has been with him for decades, if there is no accident, his son is also the housekeeper of the Zhang family, Zhang Huaizheng suppressed his anger a little, and said: "I am restless tonight, and I always feel that something is wrong." ”

The housekeeper rolled his eyes and said, "Recently, it was a harvest, and I want to go down to the village to collect land rent, is the master worried that the small village below is not safe? After all, Qingyu Village was almost wiped out last time." The lord has the blessing of his ancestors, and he will definitely be fine, but if the gentleman does not erect a dangerous wall, the lord can send someone down. ”

Although the Zhang family is a big family, this land rent is the top priority, and in previous years, Zhang Huaizheng had to go to the village in person to supervise the collection of rent. The housekeeper's words are a bit selfish, the main family doesn't go down, let the people below go to collect the rent, naturally you can get more oil and water, and he, the housekeeper, also has a share.

Zhang Huaizheng's eyes narrowed, grabbed something, and said, "What did you just say, say it again!"

The old housekeeper's eyes lit up, and there was a door to this matter: "The old slave said, whether to send someone else to the village to collect rent." ”

"Not this sentence, the previous sentence. ”

The old butler was really a little confused, and said, "...... The lord has the blessing of his ancestors, and he will definitely be fine......"

Zhang Huaizheng clapped his hands, "That's it, I'm restless tonight, I'm afraid it's the ancestors' warning!"

Regardless of the butler's face, he ordered: "Prepare the lantern quickly, I want to go to the ancestral hall!" The butler was confused, but he still respectfully obeyed the order and went down to prepare.

The ancestral hall in the township, which was built by the Zhang family, is located in the middle of the township, occupies a large area, has three rooms, and is very magnificent. Zhang Huaizheng had something in his heart, and his feet were so fast that he almost couldn't catch up with the lantern family.

Quickly came to the main hall of the ancestral hall, this house is a brick house, very strong, and the ground is also very clean, but at this time I didn't pay attention, and I didn't pay attention to it until I saw the dense god cards in the middle, especially the one in the middle of Zhang Qingyun was safe and sound, and I breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, a person came in, but it was a servant of the Zhang family, who was in charge of the ancestral hall, and lived in the side room at night, and when he heard that the main family came late at night, he quickly put on his clothes and came to serve, and asked: "The master wants incense?"

Zhang Huaizheng nodded, seeing that the ancestral hall was clean and tidy, the offerings on the table were abundant, there was no shortage, and the cigarettes were full of smoke, so he smiled and said: "Zhang San, you did a good job on this errand, and you will go to the account tomorrow to receive the reward...... Since I'm here, of course I want to incense my ancestors!"

Zhang San's face was happy, and he hurriedly prepared the incense offerings, and served them in a moment.

Zhang Huaizheng picked up the incense, bowed respectfully to the ancestral tablet, and prayed silently: "The ancestor is above, if there is anything, please inform me!" Then he commanded the lampbearer to go back and report the news.

“...... Yes!" Zhang San hurriedly cleaned up his house and let the master live in it, so he could only go to the utility room for one night. There are only three rooms in the ancestral hall, one is the main hall, the largest, which is dedicated to the ancestors, the left is Zhang San's residence, and the right is the utility room.

At night, Zhang Huaizheng tossed and turned, but he didn't feel sleepy, so he tossed all night, and finally fell asleep when it was almost dawn.

In the dream, Zhang San saw a figure, faintly, it seemed to be his great-grandfather Zhang Qingyun, who just wanted to bow down and speak, but now his body couldn't move, and his mouth was the same, even if there were thousands of words, he couldn't spit out a word.

At this time, the figure came to the front of him, and did not speak, but took his finger and wrote a few words on the ground, which seemed to be extremely laborious, the handwriting was blurred, and it was written very slowly.

Zhang Huaizheng's eyes widened, and finally faintly saw "Qingyu...... Land...... Danger", I still want to see it again, only to hear a rooster crow, open my eyes, it turns out that it is already dawn.

He knows some secrets, understands that the ancestral spirit has the ability to warn, but there are many restrictions, and the cost is very large, and his ancestors can give five words, which is already quite good.

With this consumption, it must be a great deal to do this, and I don't say much, when I return home, I chew these five words over and over again.

When I returned home, I saw that I was preparing breakfast, and when Mrs. Zhang saw it, she smiled and said, "I just wanted to send someone to invite the master, but I came back unexpectedly, and I happened to dine together." ”

Zhang Huaizheng waved his hand and said, "You use it first, I'll go to the study, you go and call Lao Zhang, I have something to ask." ”

Regardless of the surprised face of the lady, he came to the study, and not long after, the housekeeper Lao Zhang arrived, he bowed, and said, "Master, are you looking for me?"

Zhang Huaizheng said "um" and asked: "You are well-informed, do you know what happened in Qingyu Village recently, which is related to the land?"

The housekeeper thought for a while, and replied: "If you want to talk about a big thing, it must be that a group of ghosts attacked the village more than a month ago, and almost half of the people died. ”

"It's not that, what else?" Zhang Huaizheng thought about it and asked again.

The housekeeper's eyes lit up, and he said: "Yes, there is an ancestral spirit in Qingyu Village, what is the land god, it is very famous, I heard that it is also very effective, it has spread all over the four villages, and even the altar has been changed into a temple, but I don't know that the ancestral spirit can only guard one place, these foolish people...... Sir, don't you think it's ridiculous?"

Zhang Huaizheng patted his thigh and said, "That's it!" thought about it again and asked, "Then in our township, are there people who have faith?"

"I didn't believe it at first, but then I heard that I could send children and ensure a bumper harvest, so a few households believed it and went to carve a wooden statue to worship at home!"

"Nonsense!" Zhang Huaizheng's face turned red with anger, "There are ancestors who don't worship, but go to worship such unknown goods." This tone made the housekeeper shrink his neck, knowing that the master was really angry.

At this time, Zhang Huaizheng actually laughed angrily and said: "You can still send a child and ensure a bumper harvest, haha...... I am familiar with the big families in the county, and I have been to the mansion, but I have never heard of any ancestral spirit with this power. Land God, hehe......"

He also said: "You go and release the news to me, it is forbidden to worship the land god again, I, a villager of Qingxi, if you give it to me, be careful to serve the family law!" He had already figured it out, this was what the ancestors warned, and the land god grabbed the incense of his ancestors, and it was immediately a mortal enemy.

The housekeeper was also pale, and he knew that if he opened an ancestral hall and asked for family law, it would be possible to kill people, and the county generally didn't care about it.

Just as he wanted to quit, he heard Zhang Huaizheng say: "Don't you want to go to Qingyu Village to collect land rent? Go! Bring a few more Zhuang Ding, receive eighty percent of the rent for me, and tell them that if you still want to plant my Zhang family's land, you will demolish the land temple for me!"

The housekeeper's body trembled, and he wanted to kneel down to show loyalty to the lord and say that he didn't mean it, and he wanted to say that this thing was not in accordance with the rules. Kowtowed: "Yes, the old slave will do this well!" He half-bowed and cautiously retreated.

The housekeeper Lao Zhang came out of the room, and he didn't know the details when he thought about it, but it must be related to last night. First instruct your subordinates to release the news. Then order Qi Zhuang Ding and go to Qingyu Village.

At this time, the countryside is not very peaceful, large families, there are Zhuang Ding, these of the Zhang family, the same, usually do not farm, the family is also taken to the Zhang family to raise, the treatment is excellent. Only patrolling in the village, dancing knives and sticks on weekdays, boiling muscles and bones, and the food is also good, Zhang Huaizheng also deliberately went to the county to invite the martial artist to come down for a month of martial arts, and then pull it out, and they are really strong and majestic.

At first glance, the people around them didn't think it was rent-collecting, but it seemed that they were specifically going to stir up trouble.

When the group arrived at Qingyu Village, they called the tenants, there were more than a dozen households, accounting for almost half of Qingyu Village, of course, only the poorest half, after all, they had enough land to eat, who would be a tenant?

There are more than 300 acres of land around Qingyu Village, and the Zhao family accounts for one-third, and they have the right to speak in the village.

Qi Da is also a tenant of the Zhao family, and at this time he came out in fear, knelt down and kowtowed, and said: "The lord is gracious, don't you usually collect fifty percent? I still have to pay the court taxes, I really can't afford it, and I ask the lord to give me a way to live!"

The housekeeper sneered and said: "Since this land belongs to the Zhang family, the lord said that the amount to be paid is as much, but if you want to wait for the same as in previous years, you can also, the lord ordered, as long as the land temple is destroyed, it will be restored to fifty percent of the rent." ”

At that moment, someone shouted: "Then how can it be done, the land temple is a life-saving ......"

The housekeeper smiled slightly, and said: "I used to use the altar, didn't I just come over like this, as long as the land temple is destroyed, the altar is kept, and it can still bless you and wait!"

Qi Da looked at Zhuang Ding behind the housekeeper, shrunk his neck, and whispered: "But we are only such people, and the rest of the village will not agree......"

The housekeeper's eyes lit up, this person had soft bones, and he knew that he had the one to lead the way, as long as he forced Qi Da to take the lead and let him destroy the Land Temple, this was the internal affairs of Qingyu Village, then he not only did this errand beautifully, but also extracted the main relationship from it. After all, he heard that this land god is very spiritual, and he is also a little weak-hearted.

At the moment, his face was flat, "You are also a Qingyu villager, go, destroy the land temple for me, rest assured, you are indispensable!"

As soon as he made his eyes, Zhuang Ding understood, set up Qi Da, and walked in the direction of the land temple in the village.
