Traveling through ancient times as a hunter

Chapter 24 Went to the county government, they still have at least one way out.

Seeing that Cheng Duo insisted, Li Sanye couldn't persuade him anymore, because Wu Guihua was really uncertain!

The same is true of Li Mancang, who is in charge of her family. She looks like a wimpy person. In fact, when Wu Guihua came out to make trouble, didn't he have any intentions behind it?

Li Sanye has been the village head for decades, which villager has some kind of moth secretly, and he doesn't know?

Li Sanye came to Li Mancang's house and told the news that someone wanted to buy land.The Li family was very happy at the beginning, but when they heard the price offered by the other party, Wu Guihua jumped up at that time: "Ten taels, let him go dreaming! When is the grain produced by our family's few acres of land the best in the village? It's not that Brother Feng needs money to get married, so my mother is reluctant to sell it at a low price!"

"These bastards pretend to have no money one by one, and turn around to take advantage of the fire to rob. Is it easy to bully my mother? Third master, tell me who this black-hearted bastard is, and my mother has to come to the door to argue. Who am I, Wu Guihua?" How can I be sorry for him? The folks in the village insist on embarrassing us at this time!"

Li Sanye silently smoked the pipe with his old eyes down. Hearing Wu Guihua scolding the sky, his expression didn't change a bit: "That's okay, I'll tell people later, you won't sell it."

After finishing speaking, he knocked on the pipe on the ground, and slowly got up to leave. Li Mancang on the side hurriedly grabbed him: "Master, we didn't say we wouldn't sell it. Didn't we discuss it? Don't leave!"

Li Sanye glanced at him coolly: "You even said you won't sell it, so what are you talking about? Come on, just be my old man and meddle in your own business."

"Third Master, don't say that." Li Mancang's face was full of embarrassment. He was the head of their family, but the third master said that Changsheng's mother was the head of the house. Didn't he point his nose and say that he couldn't control his wife?

He knew that the third master was dissatisfied with him, but he really couldn't let the third master go at this time, so he could only force a smile and said: "Third master, you know that Changsheng's mother just doesn't speak well, and she can't scold a black heart I'm not scolding you, but the land buyer, why are you so anxious..."

Mr. Li stared at him with old eyes: "I came here to make peace with the middleman. She scolded the black heart who bought the land, didn't she just scold me? Let me tell you the truth, the person who bought the land has nothing to do with you. You don't have to scold him , Since ancient times, buying and selling has been asking for prices and paying back the money, whether you like to sell or not!"

Li Mancang saw that the third master was really angry, and quickly said: "Yes, third master, you are right, the mother of Changsheng is really too much, let me talk about her, let me talk about her, don't be angry... "

While talking, she dragged Wu Guihua to apologize, Wu Guihua reluctantly followed suit, and finally said unconvinced: "Third Master, we are all surnamed Li, and we haven't released the fifth service yet, you can't help outsiders! "

Since the third master said that that person has nothing to do with them, then he is not a relative of the Li family, so why should he be like them for the sake of an outsider?

Li Mancang pretended to pull her, then turned his head and fawned on her face: "Third Master, tell us the truth, is the price still negotiable?"

"People have said that this is the price, and he has to go to the Yamen to transfer the ownership after the deed is set. Is there any extra point?"

"Still transferring?" Wu Guihua and Li Mancang exclaimed at the same time.

Li Mancang glanced at Wu Guihua: "Yes, you don't want to sell, and people still don't believe you!"

After speaking, he stood up, "Think about it for yourself, and come to me when you have something to say."

This time Li Mancang didn't stop him.

After Mr. Li left, Brother Feng came out from the back of the main room.He had been hiding behind the door and eavesdropping just now. When Mr. Li was almost driven away by his mother, he stomped anxiously behind him, trying not to escape...

Brother Feng looked at Li Mancang and Wu Guihua with bright eyes: "Father, mother, let's sell it? Ten taels is ten taels! When I get married, I will definitely come back to see you more often."

He remembered that Mr. Yan's house was in the south, and it might not be so convenient to go back to his mother's house by himself, so he quickly added: "Even if I can't come back by myself, I will send someone back, so just sell it, ten taels of silver is almost the same... ..."

In ancient times, when a brother returned to his natal family to visit relatives, he always brought gifts. When he said that he would come back to see his parents more often, he actually implied that he would bring more things to his natal family.

"Ten taels, it's too low..." Wu Guihua still felt heartache after thinking about it. The lesser land in the village can buy eleven taels, and their land is all good!

When the seeds were planted in spring this year, his father took Changsheng to dig the mud and fertilize them. She was really unwilling to sell them at such a low price.

Brother Feng pouted: "It's not that you can't get it back, you can just deduct more dowry later on..."

"Your child just doesn't know how to live!" Wu Guihua pressed him on the head angrily: "Who would think it's too much money if you can sell more?"

Li Mancang obviously thought so too, he nodded: "That's the reason."

Brother Feng actually looked down on his parents' pettiness, but thinking that they were trying to collect money for his dowry, he obediently kept silent.

Brother Feng is a smart person, knowing that it's meaningless to make trouble, his parents will definitely find a way...

Sure enough, the next day, Li Mancang went to look for Li Sanye to grind, but the third master couldn't make up his mind, so after asking Cheng Duo what he meant, he asked the two parties to meet.

When Wu Guihua learned that Cheng Duo, the disaster star, wanted to buy their land, she couldn't help but pull down her old face.

She felt that Cheng Duo didn't fit well with their family, otherwise, why would their cattle die when this disaster came to the village?He also beat people, causing their family to be almost entangled by those two scoundrels, Li Da and Li Er...

But Wu Guihua is pungent, she still knows that the situation is better than others.For the sake of money, she not only smiled at Cheng Duo on the day they met, but also said a lot of good things for the first time.

At this time, she was full of thoughts, when their brother Feng got married, she must ask Mr. Yan to help drive this disaster star out of the village!

Once this calamity is gone, their family's sale of land will not be counted. Otherwise, Cheng Duo can take the land away with him?

……

Cheng Duo didn't know what Wu Guihua was thinking, because Mr. Li helped to make peace, and he didn't do too much. He promised to give an extra 250 Wen per mu of land, which means a total of 41 taels for four mu of land.

Just one or two, Mr. Yan couldn't wait, and Li Mancang finally decided to sell it.

The Li family was in a hurry, so Mr. Li suggested to Cheng Duo that he should call Liu Shusheng from the village for a fee of [-] yuan, and write the transaction contract today.

Originally, Sanye Li could also write, but his handwriting was not good-looking, and Cheng Duo wanted to take it to the county government to transfer ownership.In order not to be picked on by the people of the county government and take the opportunity to ask for money, it is best to find someone with good writing.

Of course Cheng Duo had no objection, he called a kid who was watching the fun outside the yard, and a penny was enough to make him happy to call someone.

Cheng Duo had heard about Liu Shusheng from Brother Yong, and knew that he had been studying on and off for several years, exhausting his family fortune, and in the end he only passed the exam as a Tongsheng.

Moreover, he is not very knowledgeable, but he has learned [-]% of the pedantic tricks of scholars.He originally disdained selling words for money, but unfortunately his parents who were willing to be old scalpers died after he failed for a long time.

He became a seller at first, and later he even sold his precious books, so he was willing to write for money.

However, people in the village are illiterate, and there is less time to write letters, so he can only go to Ershilipo to pick up some book copying jobs.Because pens, inks, papers and inkstones all cost money, and they are very expensive, and he likes to read and copy slowly, so he is still poor.

Liu Shusheng's first impression of Cheng Duo was that he was thin, with no two fleshy bodies, wearing a gray patched gown with frayed cuffs, and a clean-looking posture.

Mr. Li obviously knew his virtues, so he didn't talk nonsense with him. He just told him the content of the transaction and asked him to write the contract with paper and ink.

Cheng Duo looked at Liu Shusheng's sunken cheeks from hunger, and felt admiration. This guy is so poor, why can't he just open an enlightenment class in the village?

Even if the people in the village are generally poor, if he doesn't collect money, but if he collects some food and vegetables, he won't be so hungry...

After all, Liu Shusheng is a person who passed the Tongsheng examination. He can't speak good handwriting, but the size and arrangement are all right.Cheng Duo could read, but he couldn't write. After Liu Shusheng finished writing, he took it over to read it, nodded and said, "Yes."

Liu Shusheng met many people who pretended to understand when they didn't understand. He felt that Cheng Duo was a big bastard, and it was impossible for him to be able to read.Seeing that he was pretending to be decent, he squinted at him and glanced at him at that time: "You can understand it, so just say yes?"

"..." At any rate, he has gone through 12 years of compulsory education. Although it has been too long since the end of the world, he has returned a lot of knowledge, but it would be too much to insult him for being illiterate!

Cheng Duo picked up the deed and read it over, and then asked Liu Shusheng, "I read it right, right?"

Liu Shusheng's face was blue and red, and he really wanted to say that Cheng Duo was literate, why did he spend money to ask him to write?He was originally the most educated person in the village, and he was proud of it. Now that Cheng Duo is also literate, he somehow felt a sense of crisis...

Liu Shusheng wanted to show off his knowledge in front of Cheng Duo, but Cheng Duo ignored him after asking, and turned to Li Mancang and his wife: "Do you have anything else to add?"

In fact, the written text written by Liu Shusheng was too obscure. Cheng Duo read it once, and Li Mancang and Wu Guihua only understood the general idea.But in order not to show their timidity, they could only pretend to understand and shook their heads together.

Their eldest son, Li Changsheng, took a peek at Cheng Duo and thought that Cheng Duo was really amazing, he could read!Even Liu Shusheng was beaten back by him!

Cheng Duo only had eight taels of cash on him, and he didn't exchange the banknotes given by Wei Ling for the convenience of safekeeping.He simply had to go to the county government office to exchange for a new title deed. After asking Mr. Li about the money houses in the county, Li Mancang simply took the title deed with him.

Of course, as a middleman and the head of Yang'er Village, Li Sanye also has to go with him.

Wu Guihua was impatient and urged them to go on the road that day. Anyway, they had to stay for one night when they went to the county town. It would not be too late for them to leave at this time.

Cheng Duo was worried that Mr. Li was old and weak, and he would not be able to walk later, but he didn't expect him to underestimate the old man's physical strength.This farmer who has been working in the fields all year round is very strong in his seventies and eighties, and he is much more energetic than those young people who sat in front of computers all day before the end of the world.

But even so, a few hours of walking down the mountain road made Li Sanye very tired.

A group of three people stopped at a mountain forest by the roadside to rest their feet. Mr. Li lit a pipe and happily said that they were still ten miles away.

Cheng Duo: It takes more than an hour to walk more than ten miles!

With a dark face, he took off Sanye Li's tobacco pipe, shook out the tobacco leaves to extinguish it, and returned the pipe to him.

Li Sanye was stunned, Cheng Duo said: "Go back and smoke."

What should I do if I smoke before I can catch my breath and smoke myself out in a while?

Li Sanye was about to ask why, when three bandits armed with big knives and wooden sticks rushed out from the forest: "Root, hand over the valuables!"

Mr. Li was stunned. Did Cheng Duo know that lighting a cigarette would attract bandits?But he just lit a pipe, not the whole hill, and he hasn't even smoked yet. This thief came so fast?

Contrary to Li Sanye, when Li Mancang saw the bandit, his face instantly turned ashen: He still has their land deed on him, if he had known he would not have sold the land to Cheng Duo, otherwise he would not have been robbed by bandits road!

He pressed his hands firmly on his waist, and his legs couldn't help shaking into a ball.

Seeing his actions, the bandit headed by him knew that he had something good on him, so he pointed at him with a big knife and said, "You have something good hidden on your body, if you don't want to die, take it out!"

In fact, this group of bandits also depends on the person, Cheng Duo and his party are three, Li Sanye is a gray-haired old man, Li Mancang is black and thin and short, and the only strong Cheng Duo has empty hands.

And they have knives in their hands, although there is only one!

In this day and age, ordinary people would be terrified when they saw a bandit, not to mention that the other party was holding a sharpened black iron knife in his hand.

This kind of knife is similar to the official knife worn by the yamen servants. Although the thieves holding the knife have different identities from the yamen servants, the deterrent effect on the villagers is the same.

Both Li Sanye and Li Mancang knew that Cheng Duo could fight, but that was when everyone was unarmed.No matter how powerful Cheng Duo was, he was still a body of flesh and blood, and he would still bleed if he was cut with a knife, so they had no hope of repaying him.

Li Mancang took out the land deed with a mournful face, while Li Sanye took out his money bag tremblingly, while persuading Cheng Duo: "Don't force yourself, you can earn more money if you lose your money, and you will lose your life if you lose your life..."

Before he finished speaking, Cheng Duo had already rushed up, and when Mr. Li saw the big knife waving in the hand of the bandit in the lead, he screamed inwardly.Thinking of the scene where Cheng Duo was about to splatter blood on the spot, he put aside his old face and was a little afraid to look at it...

But soon he found out that he was wrong.Cheng Duo rushed over, kicked the leading bandit flying away, then dragged the wooden stick in the second bandit's hand, and knocked the tall bandit until his eyes were shining with one blow. Lie down on the ground.

In the end, the bandit with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks was scared, and turned around to run away, but Cheng Duo kicked him in the hollow of his knee. The posture of his face on the ground made the third master and Li Mancang frowned at the same time and "hissed"...

After a few months of leisure, Cheng Duo has become much more peaceful than when he first came. He only beat the three bandits until they were unable to move, and then he stopped, and did not kill them.

He picked up the bandit leader's knife, turned around and handed it to Mr. Li: "Master, take this."

Li Sanye was stunned: "Oh, oh..."

Cheng Duo went to the three bandits again, and pulled out their belts one by one.

The three of them were about to cry, what was this killing star doing by pulling their belts?Could it be that he didn't even spare men, so wouldn't they be safe?

The three people lying on the ground were holding their pants with difficulty, especially the thin monkey with a sharp mouth, his nose was broken when he touched the ground, and now he was bleeding from two tubes of nosebleeds, looking very happy.

Cheng Duo lifted them up one by one, tied them with belts, and strung them into a string.

"What are you going to do?" The three bandits struggled violently.

Li Sanye also had the courage to ask: "What are you going to do with them?"

Cheng Duo thought for a while: "Send it to the county government?"

Keeping them is always a disaster. Although this road leads to the county town, it is poor people who come and go.These three guys robbed them of their money, as much as they killed them.

Although Cheng Duo knew that the county government office was not clean, he would definitely not cover up bandits on the surface.What's more, these three guys only have a knife in their hands, and they are dressed in rags, and they don't look like they can bribe the county magistrate.

Cheng Duo said this on purpose on purpose. If these bandits had their cards in their cards, they would definitely show them at this moment.

Sure enough, the bandit headed by Cheng Duo's face changed when he heard Cheng Duo's words, his eyes rolled and he didn't know what to think, and suddenly he lowered his face and threatened: "You'd better let us go!"

"Oh, why?" Cheng Duo raised his eyebrows.

"We are from Heihu Village, if you don't let us go, our boss Heihu will definitely not let you go!"

Surprise flashed across the faces of the other two when they heard what he said, especially the tall and strong stupid man, if it wasn't for the reaction of the sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks, twisting his waist, he would have yelled.

The thin monkey with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks quickly echoed: "That's right! You are from a nearby village, right? If our boss finds you, it will not be your fault alone, your whole village will suffer!"

Li Sanye and Li Mancang turned pale at the same time, and Li Mancang said with a trembling voice: "You, you should let them go quickly, we can't afford to provoke these bandits..."

Li Sanye also persuaded: "Cheng Duo, forget it."

"It's okay, third master, just wait." Cheng Duo turned his head to comfort third master Li. He is powerful and looks like he is in control of everything.Li Sanye looked at him, somehow he was not so panicked, his eyes were fixed, and he quietly stepped aside.

Li Mancang had no choice but to follow suit.

Cheng Duo sneered in his heart, if he couldn't see that these guys were bluffing, he would have been in vain for ten years in the last days!

He looked at the bandits in the lead, then at the skinny monkey, and suddenly showed a ferocious smile: "So you still have a cottage, that's all right, take me there, I'll kill all the people in your cottage, then You don’t have to worry about being retaliated against.”

The bandit headed by Zeng Datou heard Cheng Duo's words and thought of something, and suddenly his face turned pale with fright, and his whole body trembled like chaff: "You, what are you kidding, you are only one person, our boss has 100 Multiple subordinates..."

The thin monkey also had a pale and white complexion, and he looked like he was going to vomit, except for the big stupid guy, he didn't seem to feel anything.

Cheng Duo didn't know why they reacted like this. He hasn't used his threats yet. These guys are afraid of this. Will it be too useless?

In any case, what should be frightened is still to be frightened.

Cheng Duo took the big iron knife from Sanye Li, Zeng Datou and the thin monkey looked at him in horror, and dragged the stupid big man back with difficulty: "Don't, don't kill us!"

Unexpectedly, Cheng Duo just held the knife in his hand, holding the handle with one hand and the blade with the other, only to hear a "bang", the blade and the handle broke in two.

"..." Cheng Duo was a little embarrassed. He originally wanted to fold the iron knife to make an iron ball, but he didn't expect this ancient iron tool to be too brittle, and it broke as soon as he folded it...

But if it's broken, it's broken. He threw down the handle, folded the broken blade, layer by layer, and finally pressed it hard. The good knife became a discus cake. He used the discus to "bang bang" Knocking Zeng Datou on the face: "Do you think I can kill your entire cottage with my skill and strength?"

Zeng Datou's face was painfully scraped by the sharp blade, but the pain on his face was far less terrible than Cheng Duo's words.

Is this guy still human?

He is so strong that he can play with irons casually, just now when he came to beat them, he didn't even know how he was knocked down.He felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and then he fell to the ground.

He still has a lingering fear of the pain that made his eyes black.

What scares him even more is the murderous aura on this man, their former boss Heihu is not so scary!You must know that Heihu has killed people before, and they have seen several people killed by him!

Cheng Duo continued: "I know that none of you are willing to lead the way, but it doesn't matter, I will kill one first, and the remaining two will definitely be willing... You don't need so many people to lead the way, trouble!"

Seeing Sha Xing throwing the discus in his hand to the old man behind him, turning his head to think about breaking the neck of one of them first... the skinny monkey who was the most courageous among the three couldn't stand it and yelled: "Don't, I'm telling the truth! Heihuzhai has been taken away, only the three of us have escaped, no one else! Send us to the county government office, we are willing to go to the county government office!"

The stupid big man looked at him in surprise, and he looked a little aggrieved: I was going to say it just now, but you didn't let me say it, and now I said it myself...

Zeng Datou was dejected, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with Shouhou's doing so. Instead of letting this killer come and kill them for nothing to vent his anger, it would be safer to go to the county government.

After going to the county government, at least they still have a way out.

Cheng Duo: "..."

Careless, he thought they were so shabby, they must have no backstage!It turns out that there is also an "organization", and this Black Tiger Village really exists!

But maybe the original leader was too arrogant, and he didn't know whether he offended his colleagues or the caravan, so if he was not careful, the whole cottage was taken away.

Zeng Datou and the three of them happened to be sent out to find the target, so they escaped unharmed.When they went back the next day and saw corpses all over the cottage, they were all terrified!Thanks to the sharp eyes of the thin monkey, who saw the black iron knife in a crevice, they were able to escape to the current geomantic omen and continue to engage in the promising career of robbery.

It's a pity that they were not very lucky. They met Cheng Duo when they acted alone for the first time...

Cheng Duo was relieved when he heard the words, and he dragged the three bandits to the county government to receive the reward... Well, even if they couldn't receive the reward, they should give it to him for the sake of helping the weak in the county. Excessive tax relief, right?
