The country sends a daughter-in-law? Come and take a dozen, take them all

Lin Xiaofan said solemnly:

"I got news from the Yamen that a group of bandits appeared nearby. And just a few days ago, that group of bandits robbed a village and killed two people."

After hearing this, Li Zheng's eyes widened:

"How is that possible? The last time the bandits made trouble, they never entered the village!"

Lin Xiaofan shook his head and said:

"Today is different. The last time there was a famine, there was no food in the village, so the bandits did not come to the village. But this year is a harvest year, and every household has food. Compared to the town, those bandits are definitely more inclined to Steal food from the village.”

Li Zheng nodded solemnly.

It is hard to have a good harvest year. If it is robbed, many people will die if there is a famine in the coming year.

"And the war in the country was not serious at that time, and troops would be sent to encircle and suppress them. This time the country will not send people. The rogue bandits also know this, and they are even more unscrupulous in killing people."

After hearing Lin Xiaofan explain the seriousness of the matter, Li Zheng couldn't keep calm and his face became panicked.

Who knows whether the next blow from a rogue bandit will fall on him?

Moreover, he is an upright person. When the bandits come, he will definitely go out to negotiate, and he will probably be the one who gets stabbed when the time comes.

"The army can't be counted on, and the yamen can't be counted on, so what should we do? Xiaofan, please think of a solution quickly."

Li Zheng asked anxiously.

Lin Xiaofan pondered for a while, and he already had an idea in mind. Now that the bandits are causing trouble, he can build his own escort first. But he can’t use his own name, let’s use the village’s name first. Moreover, this team cannot be established at his request, it must be voluntary by everyone in the village.

The big guys would definitely not be happy to protect him, a stranger, but if it was closely related to their lives, how could everyone not be nervous and active?

Lin Xiaofan thought for a moment and suggested:

"Uncle De, you don't need to panic. I've thought of a way, and that is to set up a guard team in the village. I'm thinking of a team of twenty men and twenty women. As long as you give me six or seven days, I will be able to organize the guard team." The team is armed. There are only thirty or forty bandits, and when our village guard arrives, they will not dare to act rashly."

Establish a guard team in your own village?

Li Zheng was startled. This was the first time he heard such a thing.

There has never been a county precedent in the past. Besides, Xiaofan said he wanted to be armed? How to arm yourself? Where does this money come from?

"Xiao Fan, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that the establishment of a guard team has never happened before. If the people above find out..."

To put it nicely, this is a convoy, but to put it worse, it is a private armed force. It will be difficult to tell the higher-ups if they know about it.

"You don't have to worry about this. These two big brothers are here. They can help us testify. We are just trying to protect ourselves."

"Uncle De, you also know that the current situation is not good. Now the bandits have begun to attack the village. It is impossible for the Yamen to send people to protect the village."

The main reason is that there are too few men now, there are not many people in the yamen, and there are many villages below and they are relatively scattered. They only want to find one or two people who are looking for death.

Even the guards couldn't protect him.

"This...that weapon thing..."

"I'm coming out. My home is in this village. It's good for me if the village is good. If something happens to the village, I won't be happy either. Uncle De, put it down. I've thought of a more reliable weapon that will definitely be able to resist those bandits. "

Li Zheng thought about it and thought it was feasible, but there was something more troublesome:

"Xiao Fan, I know you are doing it for the good of our village, but it is not that simple to establish a bodyguard in the village. First, the bodyguard is a dangerous and thankless profession, and no one is willing to hire someone. Secondly, the bodyguard is a dangerous and thankless profession. With the escort team, even if you provide weapons, it is not easy to train them."

Li Zheng is worthy of being an old Jianghu. He hits the point straight away and points out all the difficulties as soon as he opens his mouth.

"Uncle De, I have already thought about this. Regarding the selection of the escort, I think we should follow the principle of voluntariness. You also know that they are not to protect anyone, but to protect everyone. I think this kind of people are the best to be with. Everyone is involved, and we select people with solid foundation to join.”

"Of course, training and other things will definitely delay work. It's not easy for everyone nowadays. Recently, my money is a little looser, so I can

Provide funds. Those who join the escort team are paid fifteen cents a day for men and twelve cents for women, and they also take care of three meals. But there are two requirements. One is to listen to my words, and the other is to train seriously. "

After Li Zheng heard this treatment, his mind stopped for a second, and then he asked with some disbelief:

"Xiaofan, the treatment you mentioned are not a joke, right?"

You know, a normal person will eat ten cents a day. Calculated, the guards earn the equivalent of more than [-] cents per day.

Twenty cents, even if they go to the city to work for two days, they may not be able to earn so much.

Lin Xiaofan is too loyal. The escort team is not his business, but he is so loyal in providing money and efforts.

Lin Xiaofan nodded affirmatively and said:

"The escorts have to fight with their lives to fight the bandits, so the price they offer must be higher."

Satoshi's face showed ecstasy.

Lin Xiaofan's move not only provided stable economic income for [-] families, but also ensured the safety of people in the village.

As for the escort team fighting the bandits, it doesn't matter.

First, the bandits are not stupid. They will definitely not mess around when they see an armed escort of thirty or forty people. Second, even if there is no escort, some people will still be killed by rogue bandits.

"Xiao Fan, I thank you on behalf of the villagers, but let's forget about the food. Forty people eat for a day, which is not a small amount. You have to find someone to cook for them. I believe that as long as you give them money, They were happy to do it.”

"Xiaofan, I don't know how to thank you. Without you, our village wouldn't be able to survive this difficult time."

Li Zheng looked excited and looked like he was about to kneel down and kowtow to Lin Xiaofan.

Lin Xiaofan quickly interrupted:

"Uncle De, the most important thing now is to establish the escort team. This matter cannot be delayed. Hurry up and call all the villagers in the village."

After listening to this, Li Zheng understood what was more important and said:

"Okay, Xiaofan, just wait here. I'll call all the villagers back. Let's try to resolve the escort issue today."

After saying that, Li Zheng ran to the village on his old legs, found a few people who were idle at home, and went out to call for help.

It was already getting late at this time, and most of the people had gone back. In less than half an hour, most of the people had already returned.

But this time, no one was impatient because of waiting. Instead, they all looked expectant.
