"No, I was just talking about learning skills, being able to write and do calculations. Sit down and I will light the mosquito coils. Who cares about the torches here?"
When the leader corrects the other party, what is the point of tolerance? Only give in if you can’t beat him!
"Whoever has the territory has someone to set up torches. I'm afraid there will be trouble when it gets dark and it won't be easy to control." Lian Shisheng also chose to forget the topic just now.
He sat down again with his five younger brothers. Their eyes looked bright under the light of the torches.
They are not afraid anymore, the official people!
As for the sounds of begging and wailing over there, it does not affect the deliciousness of the cooked food at all.
Lian Shisheng looked at the chief, took a bowl and took a sip of wine: "Actually, we still have people, many of whom were killed in the war, and some fell down on the way to migration.
My family used to have some money, so I took in these people along the way. I don't care about the big ones, they should be able to make a living on their own.
They stay at home. If they are sick, I will take them to Huimin Pharmacy.
I saw it in the almshouse. It's better to do things on your own.
The five people brought out are all relatively smart. Let them follow suit and they will have a way out in the future.
I was literate and could do some accounting, and I kept teaching them with the picture-reading books I borrowed from the library. "
Lian Shisheng finally told the truth, he was hiding something just now.
"Okay! Where in Fujian are you from?" The head of the village nodded.
"Quanzhou Road, no, it's called Quanzhou Mansion now." Lian Shisheng said the specific place.
"Hello Quanzhou! Since you are from there, tomorrow you can write down the specific things there. Ming Dynasty will need it.
Especially the local customs, how the local people view the Ming Dynasty, what they need, etc.
Local talents know the local situation best, and a shipping company has been opened in Quanzhou. "
When the director heard that the other party was in Quanzhou, he immediately thought of the Shipping Department. The Taicang Huangdu Shipping Department, which had been abandoned before, reopened.
Lian Shisheng shook his head: "People are not allowed to go to sea. In fact, we just want to go to sea to make money and fish."
"Folks are not allowed to go to sea, but they can go out with the Ming Navy. If you are familiar with me...we will talk about eating later."
The director didn't want to talk too much today. Anyway, he was sure that this place needed to change and it couldn't become the darkest place in Yingtian Mansion.
Lian Shisheng took another sip of wine, hesitated and asked, "Are you an official of Yingtian Mansion?"
"Do you think I look like an official? Hanhan, stop standing there, throw away the stick, and come over to eat."
Li Chang smiled and shook his head, calling Hanhan to take a rest.
"Hanhan?" Lian Shisheng was stunned when he heard the title, and then said in surprise: "The village guards of Xiaqiu Village? Are they the guards of the Prince's Mansion?"
His five younger brothers also stared at Hanhan with wide eyes, looking at the twenty people who had just beaten someone.
Li Chang: "..."
"Hey! Eat! Drink!" Zhu Wentian put down the stick and went to wash his hands.
He felt that the stick was easier to use, but the knife was difficult to control. With two iron sticks, he could hit people with ease. He was very strong, and other people's weapons would fly away when they hit his stick.
Hitting the arms and legs with a stick can also incapacitate people, hitting the head... can still kill someone.
"Are you Chang Zhu?" Lian Shisheng was excited.
"It's the head of Xiaqiu Village. Do you all know it now?" The head of the village asked people to guess it without thinking of a title.
"Who in Yingtian Mansion dares not to know about Xiaqiu Village? Xiaqiu Village is the prince's village.
If you accidentally provoked Xiaqiu Village, the people of Xiaqiu Village might not have thought anything of it, but someone was going to deal with it in order to please the prince.
If you had said you were from Xiaqiu Village, Guan Si could have turned around, broken Er Biao's legs and dragged him in front of you.
oops! Shi San is also finished. He actually exchanged things with Guan Si and sold you. "
Lian Shisheng said, remembering another unlucky guy, Shi San, who broke the rules.
"No one has any territory here from now on. The imperial court will use it. Go talk to them and see how you can trust the government."
The head of the village told Lian Shisheng that the situation was going to change and it could no longer be like this.
"Why should Chief Zhu Li let them trust the government? I said that if Xiaqiu Village asked them to come together, as long as those who have not committed any serious crimes will be exempted, they will believe it."
Lian Shisheng shook his head, smiled and told the village chief that the yamen was not as good as Xiaqiu Village.
After the guards of the Prince's Mansion over there were done, they tied the people up with their respective belts and put them together. They didn't dare to run away unless someone was watching.
The leader came to the side of the chief: "Chief, do you really want to take him to mine?"
"Take them all with you. Go back and ask them who is here. Don't let any of them run away. You have made money here, and there is no future. Have you eaten?"
The chief despised those people and became concerned about the guards.
"I was sleeping, but it turned out that you brought Hanhan here, so we had to disguise ourselves." The guard leader was helpless.
"Let me tell His Highness the Crown Prince tomorrow that there are twenty people less, and we need another twenty or forty people to rotate.
The Prince's Mansion has been equipped with new weapons. It doesn't need so many people. It's really not possible to set off fireworks, so people from the village go over to support.
My village now has a lot of weapons, but I can't fight normally. It's not that I'm afraid of death, but I can't. "
The director was very embarrassed, and tossing people around showed that he had few manpower.
The Prince's Mansion does not need so many guards. The weapons have been upgraded, including a bunch of revolving flintlock guns and long flintlock guns.
The leader of the guard laughed: "Great, Commander, if you ask for His Highness the Prince, he will definitely give it to you. Now the brothers will be happy to death. Do you need to arrest these six?"
As he spoke, he suddenly looked at Lian Shisheng and the other six.
Lian Shisheng and others: "..."
"They are not. You see, the little one is not even ten years old yet. Just now, this little brother was standing in front to help!" The chief waved his hand.
"Captain Division, if you do this, send someone back and ask them to bring things. You will be eating and drinking here today. If you want to bring more things, pick up the glazed lamp.
I called over to the people resting here and discussed things with them. You see they were all waiting.
Take the opportunity to convince them that they are all citizens of the Ming Dynasty! The circumstances are different.
The key point is that many people don’t know what to do and need someone to guide them. Wasn’t this the case in my Xiaqiu Village? "
The chief decided to take this opportunity to make arrangements for the people who stayed here for various reasons.
Those who escaped from committing crimes outside, even if they kill people, it depends on the reason for the killing. Those who are forced to fight back, those who accidentally kill, and those who deliberately bully others cannot be generalized.
Usually, there is a sea arrest document for murder, and it is estimated that there are deserters, robbery, theft, etc.
I don't know exactly whether I can let it go. I'll ask someone who knows when the time comes.
In addition, in a few days, Zhu Xiongying will be full moon, and His Majesty will grant amnesty to the whole country to see if it is consistent.
I am not qualified to ask for someone to be let go, but I can help think of something.
"Chief, you can eat and drink slowly here while I go." The guard leader knew that the matter was serious, so he went to deal with it himself.
When the guard leader left, even Shisheng's eyes were bright. He finally knew what the relationship between Xiaqiu Village and His Royal Highness was like.
This can also control the manpower required by the Prince's Mansion. No wonder people say that Xiaqiu Village is the Prince's village, and it is indeed true.
The fifth update is completed today, brothers and sisters, please vote! Both monthly and recommended tickets are required, thank you!
