Chapter 239. Who can fool you!

Liu Zhuzi really kept his word. Not far from Linzi City, there were more than 20 acres of fertile land. A small farmhouse with courtyards in front and back also came from the middle of the village. It was always the government collecting grain. For the first time, several auxiliary soldiers drove ox carts and carried grain buckets into the house. He held a land deed with a seal from the government. Lao Shuantou looked at him in disbelief, and then took Xiao Wuzi aside again.

"How come you got this place? You won't sell our whole family, right? The old man tells you that there will be no pies falling from the sky. I've seen many traps like this......"

I always squatted by the city gate to beg for food! His old idea is completely useless to Xiao Wuzi, and he retorted impatiently.

"Aweng, let's sell our own body with you as you farm with Liu? Don't worry, I'll sell one this time! You can just farm here. If Xiao Wuzi becomes rich and makes money, I will give you a new partner when he comes back!"

"Hey! You are unfilial son and dare to tease your father!"

He never expected that his son would turn against him. The old guy immediately turned red with anger. He raised his crutch and was about to beat him, but he didn't wait to hit him! A sudden shout from the road on the other side made him tremble in fear. Seeing the officer wearing a black beast helmet and a leather-scale armor rolled over and got off the horse and walked into the yard with murderous aura. He was so scared that he shivered and knelt on the ground again in habit. Xiao Wuzi couldn't help but pull his elbow.

"Dad, you're ready! This is Brother Zhuzi, Liu Zhuzi at the east end of our village!"

"Brother Xu!"

Lao Shuan looked stupid, Liu Zhuzi's face was gloomy, but he still politely looked at him, and then nodded to Xiao Wuzi.

"Let's go!"

"I understand, lieutenant... Brother Zhuzi!"

"Dad, take care of yourself!"

The newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, nor did he show any heavyness. He bowed heavily to Lao Shuantou. The kid easily followed Liu Zhuzi out of the yard again.

However, no one knows his son, who can get this wealth and honor. This kid is not as easy as he said. He watched Xiao Wuzi turn and leave with Liu Zhuzi. It is rare that the indescribable helplessness and reluctance appear in the pupils of this fierce old man.

Liu Zhuzi followed the ox cart with a shed behind his horse. As Lao Shuan looked over, he turned over and crawled up. In the car, there were already six young soldiers wearing leather armor and steel helmets, holding a double bow steel crossbow in his hands, and each with his head tilted his shoulders. His arrogant appearance, if the crossbow was replaced with M4A1 and a camel cigarette in his mouth, it would be a virtue to the Moldier who was about to perform his mission.

The first time I joined such a task, I saw everything novel. Seeing that there was an iron pineapple on the box in the middle, Xiao Wuzi reached out and wanted to catch it, but before he could touch it, he was knocked out by the brother Abing next to him.

"You are responsible for cooperating with the captain to sell misery. We will take care of the murders and other things!"

"Ao."

He nodded unwillingly and agreed, but Xiao Wuzi still stared at the steel crossbow in Brother Abing's hand and couldn't move his eyes away.

On the other end, he turned over the horse, and the hatred in Liu Zhuzi's pupils seemed to flow out, and he shook the whip hard.

On the other end, almost at the same time, four or five gorgeous two-wheeled carriages ran out side by side at the Dongcheng Gate of Linzi. Sitting in the third carriage, Liu Hu, the patriarch of Anle Liu, also had a gloomy face, holding the bumpy carriage, and staring at the window with a vicious look that was about to reach the field that was not cultivated during the spring plowing season.

Much like the game between the kings and nobles in the medieval world, Linzi City was filled with peace and the focus of the game had quietly moved to Anle County, which was far away from Linzi and hundreds of miles eastward.

…………

Although it is called Anle County, it is not at all comfortable here. Except for the northernmost Liu family manor and small fields near the county town that began to be cultivated, the remaining fields are deserted, distributed in the vast fields of Anle Liu family after the King of Qi. The unattached thatched houses are full of dilapidated and declining atmosphere, and the living people also look weak.

Few tenants have surplus food at home. Even if they are scattered three times in three consecutive months, there are still some hidden things that cannot fill their stomachs. They can barely survive with wild vegetables when they are hungry. It would be strange if a person has energy.

In fact, the three counties in the vast Qi area are almost the same. The only difference is that one month ago, Zhao He, the original local county magistrate of Anle County, was taken down by Wang Hou on the excuse of Wang Zixu, who brought his servants to Qi to seek official positions.

This gave the Qidi family a good breakthrough!

Early in the morning, the Liu Manor, which was located on a hill, was a bit like a medieval castle in the West. Suddenly, the gate of the four manor housekeepers ran out in four directions with dozens of dog legs.

The banging gong suddenly rang at the entrance of the village. The sound was like a death talisman. It immediately scared the tenants and ordinary people, hiding the grain and hiding the big daughter, standing at the entrance of the village, watching the villagers frightened by themselves, not only did the housekeeper from the Liu family, but was proud, proving his majesty!

Even if it is hidden, it is useless. Driven away by those wolf-like dog legs one by one, the people in one village were driven out of their houses and drove to a town specially set up by the Liu family in the east, west, south and north. Almost 80% of the land in Anle County is gathered in the hands of the Liu family. Even if there is only one-quarter of the population in the West, there is more than 10,000. So many people gathered in the town used to go to the market, and they are crowded with people and can hardly see the edge!

The last big party was three months ago. When Wang Hou suddenly was collecting food in the entire Qi State, he didn't know what to do. Looking at the butler of the Liu family who was arrogant and standing on the stage, Liu Qi, who was also a member of the Liu family, was standing on the stage with a fat face and a man-like appearance, the big girls and men were trembling with fear.

Looking at all this with satisfaction, Liu Qi started to shout like a wolf and tiger.

"Listen to the untouchables below, I'll tell you not to collect grain! The Liu family is here to preside over justice for you. Since ancient times, it has been harvesting and collecting grain in autumn. There is no reason for spring farming and raising grain. It's all the dog officials of the county magistrate Wang Zixu who loves money as his life and robs people's wealth. Only then are the poor guys who can't afford to eat or grow land!"

"Let's go with me and go to the county town to find the corrupt official to seek justice! I won't have to pay food every month this year!"

It is true that the people have been fooling each other since ancient times. Liu Qi shouted on the stage not to pay food. The Liu family's servants below shouted and beat the dog officials. It seemed incredible, but the people of more than 10,000 peaceful people really believed it. The crowd was excited and rolled up their sleeves, and the crowd roared loudly.

"Dog beater!"

"Go to the county town and settle the score with the king!"

"I can't afford to survive! Fight with him!"

Are the people stupid? They are not stupid! But there is a saying that county officials should take care of themselves first!

The countryside is full of local wealthy families, and the government does not go to the countryside. Compared to offending the vicious Liu family, the county magistrate Wang, who was hiding in the county, looks better to bully it. It is natural that it is easier for everyone to blame the government.

Moreover, the Liu family can exempt the monthly grain levy. Even if they know they are going to be cannon fodder, they have to go there for a way out for a way to survive. This is the helplessness of this era.

However, as if the scripts of countless aristocratic families in this era were about to follow the scripts of local gentry using their authority to sway the people to attack the government and the scene of rampant people in the village was about to happen. The spokesperson of the Liu family who was shouting and inciting fiercely, the fat butler Liu suddenly froze and covered his throat in disbelief.

On his throat, half a crossbow arrow suddenly grew!

Seeing him staggering two steps and suddenly leaning on the flagpole of the earthen platform, the people in the four fields who were about to turn around to the county town stopped in horror!

"Avenge my father!!!"
