In the blink of an eye, most of the people in Gao Laozhuang had already left.
The executive looked at the remaining half of the people and did not speak in a hurry. Instead, he continued to wait for a while and then said to them:
"The rest don't want to leave?!"
An old man stood up and said directly:
"Executive family, the old man has been very kind to me. I feel grateful for the old man's kindness in my heart. Now that Gaojiazhuang is in trouble, we can't be those treacherous people! I don't care what others do, and I will definitely not leave."
"Yes, I won't leave either!"
Another person also stood up and shouted:
"Aren't they just some bandits?! At worst, we have to fight them..."
"Fight, fight with them..."
"The worst thing is that I will lose my life, but I will still be a good man after eighteen years!"
The emotions of the remaining people have also been aroused. Everyone must defend Gao Laozhuang here and never leave.
Most of these people are also old people from Gaolaozhuang. They have been in Gaolaozhuang all their lives. If they were asked to leave, they would not want to leave.
Youdao means that fallen leaves return to their roots.
Their roots are here, their people are here, and they won't move even a step no matter what.
"Okay, okay, okay..."
The executive was also particularly moved and said directly:
"On behalf of the old lady, I would like to thank you all. In addition, I would also like to ask you to register in the accounting office. Anyone who is willing to stay and live and die with the old lady can receive twenty taels of silver..."
"Executives, we can stay here not for the money, but to express our gratitude to the old man for his kindness. So we won't need the money, right?!"
The old man who spoke first continued:
"Besides, when the gangs come, we may all die in their hands. No matter how much money we have, what's the use?! I think there's no need to give out the money. Let's make a note of it first. If the gangs leave, Yes, we still have life, it won’t be too late to give it to us at that time!”
"That's right, save it for us first, and then give it to us when we really have the life to claim it here!"
Other old men also agreed here.
"Yes, that's right, you don't have to give it to us, just wait!"
Everyone said this, and the housekeeper nodded, cupped his hands and said:
"What you all said makes sense. Let's put this money in the account first. When our Gao Laozhuang is over this difficulty, if everyone is still alive, we can withdraw the money and food at that time."
"Let's go, brothers, let's practice and improve our combat power as much as possible before the gangs come. When the gangs do come, killing one will be enough, and killing two will be enough!"
"Yes, killing one is enough to earn money, killing two is enough to earn money!"
Someone gave the command, and immediately someone took the swords, guns and sticks on the side and went to the martial arts field to practice.
There are some swords, guns and sticks in these villas, which are also some basic protective things.
It's not to bully other people, it's just to protect your own safety.
At this time, it is natural to practice some...
They were practicing here, and the housekeeper was not idle. He returned to Mrs. Gao and reported the matter to him.
After hearing the butler's report that less than half of the people remained, Mrs. Gao was also extremely pleased.
In his calculation, perhaps the whole Gaolaozhuang should be wiped out.
Now that Gao Laozhuang still has people left, it already shows that he treats these people well.
The housekeeper also did not forget to tell Mrs. Gao about the twenty taels of silver he privately promised to everyone who stayed.
After hearing this, Mrs. Gao waved his hands nonchalantly.
The reason why people can stay is out of gratitude for his kindness. Such people don't stay for money.
If they can really survive and give each other twenty taels of silver, that is what they should do. There is nothing wrong with what the executives are doing here.
The executive also knew that the old man would not talk about himself here. On the contrary, he was more concerned about another issue.
"Old Master, do you really want to fight with the gangsters?!"
"Fight?!"
Mr. Gao also had a tangled look on his face. He had been pacing here since morning. He had been thinking about this for a full day, but there was still no result.
Under the steward's urging, he had no choice but to say:
"I'd better discuss this matter with my daughter..."
Seeing the old man's embarrassed look, the housekeeper actually knew the outcome of his discussion.
He immediately said:
"Old man, your health is important, no matter what?! You have to take care of your health. You can rest assured that no matter what choice you make, the rest of us in Gaolaozhuang will be on your side...even if It was our will that all the people from Gao Laozhuang died in the battle, and it was not forced by anyone!"
"Um!"
Old Mrs. Gao was obviously very upset and did not want to say anything more about this matter. He nodded and waved his hand, indicating to the housekeeper that he could go down.
"Why!"
When the housekeeper walked outside the house, he only heard a sigh from inside the house.
…
Half a quarter of an hour later, Mrs. Gao walked outside his daughter's room and heard cries coming from inside.
You don't need to think about it, but you can also know that his precious daughter is crying inside? !
There are no servants or maids outside the door.
Obviously these maids have already run away in advance!
These maids have all just joined Gao Lao Zhuang for a few years. When encountering such a thing, they will naturally not share the same fate and life and death with Gao Lao Zhuang!
They are still young and their roots are not completely rooted in Gaolaozhuang!
Even if this root is gone, they can continue to take root in other places. There is no need to follow their people in Gao Laozhuang to die here!
"Ahem!"
Old Mrs. Gao coughed twice, trying to attract the attention of the girl in the room and ask her to restrain herself so that he could have a good talk with her!
Unexpectedly, when he coughed like this, the crying in the room suddenly became louder.
This made him somewhat embarrassed and even more distressed.
This old girl is definitely a treasure that he holds in his hands for fear of falling, and holds in his mouth for fear of melting...
I have always been pampering her as much as I can!
In this life, he has no plans to let his daughter go. He only hopes to find a son-in-law for her in the future, take good care of her, and provide for himself until the end of his life. The foundation of his Gaojiazhuang can be regarded as a dowry for his future son-in-law. .
