Wang Dadian and Wang Erdi looked at each other. Wang Dadian looked at Luan Bao and said directly: "What's the news? Let me tell you."
Luan Bao immediately said: "I wonder if the two village masters know about Qipai Village?"
Wang Datian and Wang Erdi's eyes lit up and they nodded in unison.
Wang Dadian said with some displeasure: "I have known about Qipai Village for a long time. I also know that Qipai Village is very rich. I even led people to rob it twice."
Wang Erdi said with a bit of regret: "It's a pity that although Qipai Village is a village, the same high wall as the county town has been built outside, making it impossible to penetrate."
"We tried to go there twice before, but we never got close to the city wall. There were people shooting bows and arrows far away, and we couldn't even get close."
"It's no use pretending to be a refugee. There are many strong villagers guarding the place. Pretending to be a refugee can't bring weapons. Even if you go in, they will deliver food."
Wang Datian and Wang Erdi felt uncomfortable thinking about Qipai Village. There was a fat sheep in front of them and they couldn't eat it.
This fat sheep looks plump and delicious, but it is actually made of copper skin and iron bones. Not to mention eating it, even one bite will break two big teeth.
Luan Bao immediately said: "Those two village owners know why Qipai Village is so rich."
Wang Dadian became a little impatient and said in a louder voice: "What don't you know about this? Several nearby counties know that there is a female Bodhisattva named Zhao Yanhuan in Qipai Village."
"It is said that Zhao Yanhuan is very capable. He leads the people in Qipai Village to farm the land, and has a good harvest every year. He still has enough energy to take in refugees from various places."
Luan Bao immediately said: "What if I said, I have a way for you, the village leader, to drag Zhao Yanhuan into our Tiger Leaping Village and become your wife?"
Wang Datian and Wang Erdi both had expressions of disbelief.
Wang Erdi frowned: "Zhao Yanhuan is arrogant and arrogant. It is said that she disdains many wealthy young men who have taken a liking to her. How can she be willing to marry my eldest brother?"
Although they don't want to be looked down upon by others, it is a fact that their bandits are not treated well by others, and it is impossible not to admit it.
Luan Hu deliberately said mysteriously: "If this were the past, of course it would be impossible, but it is different now. It is said that Zhao Yanhuan is attracted by the county magistrate, and the county magistrate wants to take her as a concubine."
"Zhao Yanhuan is so arrogant. She doesn't want to be with those rich young men. She just dislikes them having concubines. How can she be willing to be a concubine for the county magistrate?"
"But now the county magistrate wants to take concubines, and no one else dares to compete with the county magistrate. But you, the village owner, are different. You don't have to be afraid of the county magistrate."
"If you, the village leader, are willing to marry Zhao Yanhuan as your wife and promise never to take a concubine, village master, I think there is a high probability that Zhao Yanhuan will be willing to marry you."
"It is said that Zhao Yanhuan has high-yielding wheat seeds, which can double the yield per mu. If Zhao Yanhuan is in our village, we don't have to worry about starvation."
Wang Datian and Wang Erdi were deeply moved. Don't think that the bandits will not go hungry.
Although the bandits are not in business, they do not succeed every time they rob, and they do not always succeed in robbing them.
For bandits, if they can survive from grabbing food today, they may starve to death tomorrow because they have not been open for a long time.
Wang Erdi made a quick decision: "I will go down the mountain tomorrow to find out whether the news is true."
The people from Wang Er are so thin that as long as they put on refugee clothes and get a little dirty, no one will be able to tell the flaw.
Early the next morning, Wang Erdi went down the mountain, but he did not go to Qipai Village immediately.
Wang Erdi first found a group of refugees who could not survive and were wandering around.
Such refugees are not uncommon. They are all people who have lost their land due to natural disasters and man-made disasters.
They begged for food, worked as part-time workers, and did anything to avoid starving to death.
Wang Erdi preached a little about the benefits of going to Qipai Village, and these refugees followed Wang Erdi to Qipai Village.
This is Wang Erdi's first time entering Qipai Village. The outer walls of Qipai Village are tall and thick.
There are people patrolling the walls, and people stationed at the high pavilions on both sides of the wall for a long time to observe the situation in all directions.
Especially after entering Qipai Village, what you see is a large row of strong men and women patrolling with knives.
Wang Erdi once again confirmed that Qipai Village cannot be attacked by force.
So he followed a group of gangsters very quietly and politely, and was arranged to drink porridge by the villagers of Qipai Village.
Wang Erdi took a quick look and saw that the porridge was very thick. It turned out to be the wealthy Qipai Village.
After drinking the porridge, Wang Erdi was arranged by the villagers of Qipai Village to see a doctor in a small house with the refugees.
The person in charge of seeing the doctor was a beautiful woman. Next to the woman was a very beautiful girl who was helping to get medicine.
The villagers in Qipai Village next to Wang Erdi looked at the two people and said proudly: "That girl is our village chief Zhao Yanhuan, and the doctor is her mother, who is also the only doctor in our village, Li Qing."
Just now, Wang Erdi deliberately got close to this villager, gave the villager money, and found out a lot of information from the villager's mouth.
For example, it is true that Zhao Yanhuan can farm and cultivate high-yielding wheat seeds.
Also, Zhao Yanhuan was indeed targeted by the county magistrate, who wanted to take her as a concubine.
Wang Erdi also observed that all the villagers in Qipai Village looked plump.
Of course, this so-called plumpness is just because they are not too thin and cannot be compared with being fat, but it is enough to prove that they are living a good life.
Logically speaking, if you are living a good life, you should be smiling, but the attitude of these villagers is a bit worried, and there is almost no smile.
He knew the reason after just asking, because the villagers were worried that Zhao Yanhuan would be taken away by the county magistrate, and then Qipai Village would have no backbone.
It seemed that the news was true. Wang Erdi was a little excited and suppressed it.
He lined up with the refugees to be seen by Li Qing, and then thanked him gratefully like everyone else, but he kept observing Zhao Yanhuan in a subtle way.
The other party had a gentle attitude towards the refugees and seemed to be melancholy and not very happy.
Wang Erdi did not observe too much, for fear of attracting attention, and followed the refugees all the way into the compound of Qipai Village specially designed to house the refugees who had just arrived in Qipai Village.
Wang Erdi thought that his performance was flawless, but he didn't know that after he left, the villager from Qipai Village who was bribed by him found Zhao Yanhuan.
He directly placed the money that Wang Erdi bribed in front of Zhao Yanhuan and said, "Village chief, the man named Wang Laoer is the bandit who came this time."
"I observed carefully according to what you said. This Wang Erdi seemed to be very honest when he came in. In fact, he was asking about news about our Qipai Village."
"He also gave me money and asked a lot about our Qipai Village. The focus was on whether we have high-yielding wheat seeds and the fact that you were chosen by the county magistrate to take you as a concubine."
The villager curled his lips when he said this: "What an idiot. How could the county magistrate want to force you to be a concubine? As soon as he said this, I knew he was a bandit."
Zhao Yanhuan praised: "You have done a good job. Keep this money. You can tell him any information he wants to find out next. If he gives you money again, you don't need to tell me. Just accept it yourself."
The villager happily picked up the silver and said, "Don't worry, village chief, I will never let you lose your money."
After seeing off the villagers, Zhao Yanhuan and Li Qing did not go home, but went to Li Qing's Yaolu at the foot of the mountain north of the village.
