Ancient natural disasters: The whole family traveled through time and was almost wiped out

Chapter 207

"What a coincidence, we are the officials."

"It's just that this house, are you sure it's yours?"

Jiang Yipei sneered, walked inside with his hands behind his back, and then saw a very strange scene - many people were wearing the gorgeous clothes that the masters wore, but they were doing the work that servants should do, such as sweeping snow, cleaning windows, and washing clothes.

In the middle of winter, do we have to do these jobs?

“Chapter chapter chapter…”

It must be that the two gatekeepers made too loud a noise, which alarmed the others. The leader ran and knelt very fast. As the Liang family's strongest and most powerful errand boy, he knew County Magistrate Zhang.

County Magistrate Zhang brought a lot of people to arrest him!

Dad!

He was too scared to run errands and wanted to run, but his usually strong legs gave up at the critical moment and he couldn't even get up.

He was wearing a mink coat, which might have been too warm for him, and he was sweating coldly. His not-so-smart brain was constantly thinking about how to solve the dilemma.

Jiang Yipei works in construction and has met many toxic and stupid people, but he has never seen anyone so toxic and stupid!

"Uncle Liang--" Liang Sheng, the uncle of the Liang family, was helped up by County Magistrate Zhang.

What a sin! Before they came in, the eldest son of the Liang family was kneeling on the ground washing the feet of the errand boy - because he loved cleanliness, he washed his feet several times a day, and the person serving him was the errand boy. Later, when the errand boy gained power, it became the errand boy who washed his stinky feet. He resisted, but was beaten badly.

After being beaten seven or eight times, he became obedient.

It's ridiculous to say that the master is used to being served and can't even beat his servants, so he is directly bullied by them.

The Liang family does not have deep roots. The huge family business was accumulated bit by bit by Liang Sheng's father who made rouge. I don't know if it is because of the rouge and powder business, the masters of the Liang family, both men and women, tend to be delicate, otherwise they would not be bullied by a group of servants.

It's all his father's fault. He imitated the wealthy families in raising families and having children, so he bought slaves one by one. The children born by one slave were paired with the children born by that slave. In the end, every family of the slaves were related by marriage. He ended up adding fuel to the fire instead of adding snakes, which led to the current situation.

Later, they found out that the Qi family next door was similar to theirs and ended up in the same situation.

The two families had been hiding from the rain in the Qi family's villa on the hillside.

Because of the sufficient preparation, the villa has everything and is no different from the county.

But on an ordinary morning with heavy rain, this harmony was broken.

The Qi family's housekeeper was the first to start trouble and tied up the old man of the Qi family. Then the Liang family's housekeeper, who was the errand boy, also tied up his father.

Immediately afterwards, most of the servants and maids betrayed their master and sided with Butler Liang and his family.

Liang Sheng gnashed his teeth in hatred. His father and mother's bodies were gone, all because of them!

If it wasn't for revenge, how could he be willing to suffer humiliation every day!

After the death of the mastermind, Steward Liang, these people were so vicious and stupid that they were not at ease even when they were being watched closely. They thought they might have a chance to ask for help while cleaning, so they just let them serve in the house. They also wanted to have the manners of a wealthy family, such as having a gatekeeper. How can a wealthy family be without a gatekeeper?

But they were worried about letting the Liang family guard the gate, so they asked their relatives to dress up nicely and go to guard the gate.

"Thank you, Lord Jiang, for saving my life!" Liang Sheng knelt down in front of Jiang Yipei and kowtowed loudly.

The first time he knelt down to Butler Liang, it was extremely difficult. He went through countless ideological struggles. When he heard Butler Liang's triumphant laughter, he even wanted to die. But he didn't expect that after kneeling for a long time, he got used to it.

Killing someone is just touching the ground with your head, and kneeling someone is just touching the ground with your knees.

They lost nothing except their dignity.

Later, if the errand boys were a little louder, he would kneel down automatically and consciously, without saying anything, and he would kneel down silently, which would make them laugh. As a result, he would receive less trouble and fewer slaps and kicks.

Besides, the person they are kneeling to is Jiang Yipei. They are the common people, and it is only natural for them to kneel to the officials. Isn't it decent not to kneel to those dead slaves?

"Uncle Liang, it's not necessary, it's not necessary! Hurry up and get up!"

Jiang Yipei quickly helped the man up. To be honest, he was afraid that this man was mentally twisted. His identity in life had undergone such a big change, so he shouldn't be a pervert, right?

Liang Sheng followed Jiang Yipei's strength and forced himself to hold back his tears. His calm eyes swept over the room full of servants and maids who were wearing their clothes, stepping on their shoes, and kneeling in fear. He already had countless ways in his mind to kill them without a complete corpse.

Liang Sheng took a deep breath and managed to force a smile at Jiang Yipei: "I wonder if Lord Jiang can hand them over to me for disposal."

The indentures of all of them were previously in the hands of his mother. In order to get the indentures, they forced his mother to death.

As soon as he got the indenture, he burned it, thinking that he would be free again!

dream!

The slave registration would only be valid if the master personally or authorized someone else to go to the government office to cancel the registration. Do they dare to go?

They don't dare!

They dared not even open the door, and had to eat and drink secretly and carefully. They could only be like rats in the gutter, eating and using things they stole and robbed!

He also heard them say that during these days, they would take advantage of the chaos, take the Liang family's wealth and go to other places to become masters in a dignified manner.

That's all my ambition.

If it was him, and he had the heart to rebel against his master, he would definitely do it openly and openly, and announce to outsiders with a big fanfare that the Liang family had a new owner!

Anyway, the world is in chaos now, and everyone is just minding their own business, not worrying about other people's problems. No one has the mind or energy to make decisions for the Liang family.

Even if it was Jiang Yipei, the acting county magistrate, if he surrendered and gave half of the Liang family's wealth to Jiang Yipei, maybe the county government would even clear his name! Why would he have to do it secretly?

A person's thoughts and vision can determine the height he can reach. Liang Sheng has such an idea because of his education, but the fact that the errand boy can now wear the dragon robe and not look like a prince is also due to his knowledge. His thinking and actions are too narrow.

If it was Butler Liang who followed Master Liang to conquer the world, this would definitely not happen.

If he could seize the opportunity and rebel against his master, he must have a backup plan. After all, his family had been changed hands five times, and was still sold from time to time in his old age. He was really unwilling to accept this. The continuous rain disasters, coupled with the actions of County Magistrate Chen to seize grain, made him realize that this rain disaster would definitely not be simple. He also realized that whether he could change the door lintel depended on whether he could seize the opportunity this time!

The housekeeper Qi next door was his relative. His eldest son married his daughter, who was old and had been displaced for half her life, just like him. He just mentioned it to him and got his full approval and cooperation.

Fortunately, Master Liang took him with him when he died, otherwise, none of the masters of the Liang and Qi families would be left, and the magpie's nest would have been occupied by the turtledoves.

"The servants of the Liang family can naturally be dealt with by their masters." Jiang Yipei said. In ancient times when human trafficking was completely legal, masters with indentures could abuse or even kill slaves. The only problem would be that their reputation would be ruined if the news got out.

Nowadays, if a slave bullies his master, in ancient times when imperial power was supreme and there was a distinction between the lord and the lord, this was already a violation of the law of heaven.

Jiang Yipei does not have the ability to change this system for the time being, and even if he does, he will not intervene now.

At the beginning, the errand family showed no mercy when they killed Mr. Liang and Mrs. Liang. After all, they were the bosses who paid you a monthly salary and provided you with food and accommodation. You had been working with them for more than ten years. How could they do such a thing?

"Thank you, sir!" Liang Sheng bowed hurriedly.

"Mr. Liang, you are too polite. This is what our county government should do." Jiang Yipei said righteously, but the next second he changed his tone: "It's just that our county government currently..."

Five hundred words are omitted here, all of which are about crying poor. Liang Sheng understood immediately and said hurriedly: "Our Liang family makes rouge and powder, and we have food, but not as much as the Qi family and the other families. But Liang will definitely do his best to help Lord Jiang solve his problems!"

"Okay! Thank you, Uncle Liang!" Jiang Yipei looked excited. He held Liang Sheng's hand tightly and expressed his gratitude with different words for five minutes. He almost made Uncle Liang blush!

Finally, Jiang Yipei smiled and said, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. You should go and see your family and comfort them."

"Yes! I'll take you there - take care!"

Liang Sheng had long wanted to go see his wife and children. He didn't know if they had been frightened by Jiang Yipei's men. During this period, everyone in the family, young and old, had suffered a lot of frights and had become much more timid.

With his help in ideological work, the adults could barely accept such a life worse than death, but it was difficult for the children. They went from being high and mighty young masters and young ladies to falling straight to the bottom of the valley and becoming toys ridden like horses by the servants' children. They were so aggrieved that they were about to cry their hearts out.

But he had no way out!

"Husband—"

"Big brother-"

When they saw Liang Sheng, his wife and concubines came over with their children. His brothers, sisters and nephews also came over. They formed a circle and looked warily at the person around them who claimed to be from the county government.

To be honest, after this incident, they no longer believed anyone. But when they heard Liang Sheng's confirmation and learned that Diao Nu had been brought to justice, the evil in their hearts finally flared up: "I'm going to beat them to death!"

Liang Sheng's eldest son Liang He was about to rush out, but was stopped by Liang Sheng: "Master Jiang is still next door."

If possible, he didn't want to do anything cruel in front of Jiang Yipei.

"They got it easy!" Liang He shook his hands angrily.

Liang Sheng's wife and concubines cried to him aggrievedly, telling him about the difficulties and sufferings they had endured during this period. Now that it is finally over, can you come to my room tonight to comfort me?

As for Liang Sheng's two younger brothers and their families, they all looked like they had survived a calamity.

They returned to their respective rooms, threw out all the things that had been used by the servants, and put on new bed sheets and quilt covers as if they were familiar with the process - they had never known how to do these things before, but they had really practiced them during this period of time.

Cleaning the room, sweeping the floor, tidying up, all the housework can be done in an orderly manner. With no one to serve, their yards and houses are all brand new.

Where have I ever seen myself doing things so efficiently before? !

If they weren't so tired, they would listen carefully to others praising them.

Jiang Yipei did not stay in the Liang family for a long time, but went out and went to the Qi family next door.

With such a big noise coming from the Liang family, it was impossible for the Qi family next door not to hear anything, so when Jiang Yipei came to the Liang family, he assigned half of the people to be taken to the Qi family by County Captain Tan. Now, everything over there has been almost sorted out.

Butler Qi collapsed on the ground in a utterly ungraceful manner, with his hands and feet being held down by someone. What's worse, a white-haired old man was riding on him, punching him on the head and face again and again. He didn't stop until his head and face were covered in blood, and finally he slowly stopped even when his hands were bleeding.

"Master Jiang is here?" Old Master Qi wanted to stand up slowly and express his gratitude to Jiang Yipei, but he hadn't eaten a full meal for a long time and his health was not good, so he almost fell down. It was Jiang Yipei who stepped forward and supported him.

The following process was already very familiar. Facing Jiang Yipei's request for help, Mr. Qi waved his hand and directly allocated half of the Qi family's territory to the county government!

Jiang Yipei was stunned by his generosity. He had already said that he wanted to buy it, but Grandpa Qi refused to take any money. After this experience, Grandpa Qi understood that if a person is gone, no matter how much wealth is left behind, it is useless. It is better to donate it to the county government and ask for its protection. He can even leave a mark on the monument of merit, which will be worthy of the ancestors of the Qi family.

Our ancestors will definitely agree!

If it weren't for Jiang Yipei, the ancestors of the Qi family would probably never be able to enjoy the incense offerings from their grandparents and grandchildren again.

Today, we have dealt with three out of eight companies, a good start!

Jiang Yipei was no longer satisfied, but extremely satisfied. Especially when he heard that the Qi family was willing to donate half of their wealth, he almost couldn't help but jump up and down.

As for the remaining five families, the Liang family and the Qi family volunteered together, saying that they were willing to take the lead and persuade them.

Jiang Yipei naturally had no reason to refuse, and he immediately handed over full authority to them. Of course, he couldn't give them the money now. He would have to wait until they reached an agreement and he saw the actual product.

With the supplies, Jiang Xiumian's carbon kiln also operated in an orderly manner.

Jiang Yipei wanted to put the brick kiln on the agenda. As a builder, he really couldn't bear to see so many villages where people lived in low mud brick houses or even thatched houses.

Especially for thatched houses, the risk factor is too high. What if the house is set on fire while you are warming yourself by the fire?

Coincidentally, Jiang Xiumian and his team discovered clay that could be used to make green bricks on Shangtang Mountain, so they began testing after building the brick kiln.
