Knowing that there are more than 500 catties of grain in it, but one family can only buy one catty, the villagers who lined up immediately quit.

Li Xiuyuan was not annoyed, and raised his hand to beckon.

Hearing the sound of orderly footsteps, a team of ten people rushed out from the yard behind Li Xiuyuan. The ten people had big knives on their waists, bows and arrows in their hands, and stared coldly at the noisy Emotional villagers.

"Qingzi, what are you doing?"

"Er Liu, I'm your second aunt, how could you point an arrow at me?"

"Brother Haihai, we are from the same village"

Seeing the cold-faced guards and the cold bows and arrows, the villagers not only didn't feel scared, but made more trouble.

Since they were relatives of these guard members, they cursed.

Li Xiuyuan sneered, did not speak, turned his head to glance at Shuanzi, Shuanzi nodded, put down the gong in his hand, picked up a bow and arrow, aimed at the person who made the most noise, and shot at him.

"what……"

The bow and arrow passed through the man's hair. He screamed and fell to the ground, looking at Shuanzi in horror.

As if they had received the order, the members of the guards raised their bows and arrows one after another, drew their bows fully, and pointed at the people in front of them with indifferent eyes, as if they would let go if they dared to quarrel again, and shoot them all into hedgehogs.

After a long period of peaceful life, these villagers almost forgot what happened on the way to escape from the famine.

Now being pointed at by so many bows and arrows, they finally remembered again, and couldn't help but feel terrified.

"Li...Young Master Li, I have something to discuss."

"Yes, if you say one household can only buy one catty, then just buy one catty. We will listen to you."

"Yes, yes, Master Li, we all listen to you."

Under the suppression by force, this group of villagers all chose Congxin.

Who is not afraid of the cold light of the bow and arrow?

Li Xiuyuan smiled and waved to the guard members. They all retreated a little, but still pointed arrows at the villagers in front of them.

"Shuanzi, let's start selling food."

"One catty per household, be sure, never more"

"Yes, sir"

Shuan Zi responded, ran back to the yard, and opened the corner door of the grain pile. Inside the door, the grains in cloth bags were neatly stacked on the ground. Ten archers stood on both sides of the door, looking at the front Villagers who came to buy food.

They walked in tremblingly, bought a pound of grain, and walked out quickly.

Soon it's the next person's turn.

"Did you notice that no one came from Ersheng's house?"

"No one from Dahai's family came over"

The villagers who bought the grain hurriedly sent the grain home, and then rushed out to guard it.

There are only about a hundred households in the village, and if there are really five hundred catties of grain, after each household buys a catty, there will be three or four hundred catties left. What if Young Master Li plans to sell more.

They were all lucky enough to gather here, and Li Xiuyuan didn't care, watching the villagers in front of them buy food.

"Brother Li San'er, it seems we are hopeless."

Yu Dashui stood a little further away, looking at the scene outside Li's house, and couldn't help but sigh.

Li San'er's expression was complicated. He thought he had a chance to soar into the sky, but Bai Xia's words last night made him sober. He had no way to get food, so how could he have the ability to feed so many people? .

Last night Li Xiuyuan had a good discussion with them, but today he started to use force.

Ten members of the guard stood at the door like door gods. He had already sent people to inquire. Early this morning, Li Xiuyuan sent people to deliver ten kilograms of grain to each of these families' homes in exchange for them working for him.

"Let's go, let's buy food too."

There is nothing he can do if he is not reconciled, his wife is still pregnant, so it's not good to worry her.

Besides, it's just Liu Yunzhai, a place with bigger farts, so there's nothing to argue about.

With that said, Li San'er and Yu Dashui also appeared in the grain buying queue.

Seeing the two of them, Li Xiuyuan finally showed a smile.

"Qishan, go." He took out a piece of paper and a square of ink pad and gave it to Qishan, and nodded to him. Qishan took it and walked into the crowd.

When he got into the crowd, he caught a person and whispered in his ear. The person was impatient, but after hearing what he said, he showed great joy. The two seemed to be sneaking, but in fact everyone I have seen it all.

The person Qi Shan found stamped his finger ink pad on the paper he took out.

A lot of smart people felt that there was something tricky, and they also came over.

Qi Shan, like the man just now, whispered a few words into this man's ear, and then stamped ink pad on his finger.

More and more people came back from buying food and covered it with ink pads.

After a while, the paper Qishan took out was covered with red marks.

At this time, the people who bought food also reached the end of the line.

The two people in the back hurriedly sent the food home, and then ran out in a hurry.

Everyone has a premonition that Young Master Li is going to play big.

"Master, everything is fine"

Qi Shan handed the paper covered with inkpad to Li Xiuyuan, the paper was covered with red seals, and words were written all over it.

"when"

When the gong sounded, the villagers below subconsciously stood up straight, their ears pricked up, and listened carefully to Li Xiuyuan's speech.

"It is said that a country cannot live without a king"

"A village cannot live without an owner for a day"

"Liu Yunzhai's terrain is dangerous, the mountains are poor and the land is poor. If everyone wants to live a good life, they must have a good leader."

"The boy is not talented. Although he is only in his early teens, he has read poetry and books and has the talent to govern the world. He can be the leader of Liu Yunzhai."

"It's just that Village Chief Yu said yesterday that he hoped that everyone would raise it together, so he called everyone to come and ask, do you have any objections to the boy being the head of the village?"

Li Xiuyuan's words were so polite that the villagers below were bewildered.

At this time, there was a shout from the crowd: "No objection, I have seen the village master!"

"Meet the village owner"

Some villagers knelt down on the ground as soon as Li Xiuyuan finished speaking, shouting that they had seen the village owner.

So, when some other villagers were still in a daze, they also knelt down subconsciously, shouting to Li Xiuyuan that they had seen the village owner.

But for a moment, the villagers fell to their knees in large numbers.

It is said that it is jointly raised, but in fact it is still bought by grain. As long as there is grain, is there no one?

Li Xiuyuan learned.

Benefits are more reliable than favors.

With these words in his mind, he looked at the villagers below and slowly raised his hands: "Everyone, get up."

"Thank you for your kindness. Then, from today onwards, I will be the owner of Liuyunzhai. In Liuyunzhai, they regard me as the most respected. All government orders should be preceded by me. If there is any disobedience, you will be killed."

The last word "kill" was chilling, and there were still some confused villagers below, and they lowered their bodies for no reason.

"Yu Dashuan"

Seeing that the villagers below were intimidated, Li Xiuyuan felt satisfied.

Shuan Zi stepped forward excitedly, knelt down in front of Li Xiu Yuan, and said loudly, "Young one is here!"

"From now on, I will order you to serve as the captain of Liu Yunzhai's guard, with a monthly salary of ten catties and two hundred silver coins."

"Thank you village master"

Shuanzi kowtowed excitedly.

"Li Saner"

Li San'er in the distance was taken aback for a moment, then stepped forward subconsciously, and knelt down in front of Li Xiuyuan on one knee: "This subordinate is here"

Hearing that he claimed to be his subordinate, Li Xiuyuan felt satisfied.
