Yang Xiu took the fake refugees captured from the disaster relief site, starting with the nearest aristocratic family, and came one by one to question them.
The closest one is the Xiaoshan Ma family.
Last night, Yang Xiu made a deal with various aristocratic families to exchange fine grain for bran, which made Yang Xiu very popular with the major aristocratic families. Even when he left last night, each family personally delivered it to the door.
Yang Xiu came again early this morning, and the concierge of the Ma family immediately reported the news to the head of his family.
When the head of the Ma family heard this, he thought something good was coming, so he immediately led his people out to greet him with a smile.
But when he saw Yang Xiu and so many soldiers outside the door, the Ma family leader felt something was wrong.
"Master Yang came to my house so early. It's really a shame to welcome him from afar!"
Yang Xiu didn't bother to be polite to Ma Wencai, the head of the Ma family, and said straight to the point: "Master Ma, are you too ungrateful to be so special?"
Xiaoshan Ma Wencai and Ma Yuan looked at Yang Xiu, who was coming with force and force, and couldn't make up his mind at all.
Last night everyone promised me to trade precious high-quality rice for bran, which was mutually beneficial. Why did you turn your back on me today?
"Master Yang, who is provoking you? The bran you asked for last night was enough, there is no shortage!"
Yang Xiu stared coldly at the horseman, making him very uncomfortable.
Ma Yuanwai hurriedly said: "Mr. Yang, I have no idea of you. As you know, I have never been interested in money. I just have enough food at home, and I don't let people gouge the food or anything like that!"
Yang Xiu waved his hand slightly, and Wang Erniu pushed out the dozen servants of the Ma family who were pretending to be victims of the disaster.
When the horseman saw several of his slaves, his face suddenly showed embarrassment, and he was horrified: "Damn it! Yesterday, I was only thinking about exchanging bran for his refined grain rice with Mr. Yang. I forgot that I also had It’s a matter of sending people pretending to be refugees to eat for free.”
After Yang Xiu saw the change in Ma Yuanwai's expression, he said coldly: "I said last night that it doesn't matter if you aristocratic families don't provide disaster relief and rescue the people, just don't stumbling upon me behind my back. Now it seems It’s hard for me to speak!”
Yang Xiu turned around and walked to Wang Erniu, and flicked the nine-tin ax given by the emperor with his hand. The ax immediately made a clanking sound.
"It seems that Ma Yuanwai wants to come and reason with you with axe?"
When Ma Wencai saw the axe, he couldn't help but think of the unlucky city gate official yesterday.
Ma Wencai quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to beg for mercy: "Master Yang, it was a small negligence and poor discipline that caused the slaves in the house to go out and eat for free!"
"Whether it's a lack of discipline or deliberate indulgence, you know it yourself."
"Since you have eaten my food, you must return it! One thousand catties of food!"
Ma Wencai breathed a sigh of relief. Compared with his own life, Ma Wencai could still afford this thousand kilograms of grain!
But the next second, Yang Song added: "One person has one thousand catties of grain!"
"What? One thousand catties of grain per person?" Ma Wencai couldn't help but exclaimed.
This horseman sent more than a dozen servants to eat for free. Calculating this, it would cost more than 10,000 kilograms of food.
"Huh? What? Do you think I want more than one thousand kilograms of grain from you?" Yang Xiu said and went to get the axe.
Ma Wencai became even more panicked when he saw Yang Xiu extending his hand. He waved his hand quickly and said, "No more, no more. The price offered by Mr. Yang is very reasonable, very reasonable!"
After hearing this, Yang Xiu slowly retracted his hand that was reaching for the axe, and then asked Ma Yuanwai on the ground: "Since Ma Yuanwai, you think the price is fair and reasonable, you are welcome to send some servants next time. Don’t worry, I will definitely not increase the price for you!”
"Ma Yuanwai, the food you owe me will be delivered to Fuyin Yamen as soon as possible, otherwise... hum..." After saying that, Yang Xiu waved his sleeves and left without taking a single cloud with him.
After Yang Xiu and his party left, Ma Wencai and Ma Yuanwai quickly stood up.
Ma Wencai kicked each of the recognized slaves beside him, and yelled: "You idiots have not been recognized as pretending to be refugees before, why are you suddenly exposed today?" ?”
The family member Ma Sanpao said with a sad face: "Master, you really can't blame us. The rice porridge distributed by Master Yang this time was mixed with bran..."
Before Ma Sanpao could finish speaking, Ma Yuanwai slapped him again.
"What's wrong with bran? It's as if you have never eaten rice porridge with bran at home!"
Ma Sanpao covered his beaten face and said aggrievedly: "No, Master, of course we can drink the rice porridge with bran in it, but who knew that this guy named Yang was so sinister that he was still in the rice porridge?" Mixed with sand.”
"None of us could eat that stuff. All the servants sent by the aristocratic families vomited it out on the spot. Only the refugees who were starving to death ate it with gusto."
Ma Wencai cursed angrily: "You idiot, then you don't know that you are from the Xu family!"
Ma Sanpao replied with a sad face: "The Xu family also vomited, and they sent more people, they sent more than 20 people!"
"Besides, with the lessons learned yesterday, who would dare to talk nonsense if he is caught pretending to be a refugee and eating for free? If he dares to talk nonsense, he is lighting a lantern in a manhole and seeking death!"
The horseman slapped him a few more times and said unhappily: "Your special mother-in-law always says the same thing!"
"What's wrong? Do you want to take the first prize?"
Ma Sanpao, who had been slapped several times in a row, quickly shut up and said nothing, for fear of being slapped again by his master.
Although the Ma family had to pay more than 10,000 kilograms of food this time, after learning that the Xu family sent more than 20 people to eat for free and would have to pay more than 20,000 kilograms of food, Ma Yuanwai suddenly felt that he was not so miserable.
Sure enough, happiness and misfortune in this world are all based on comparison. If you compare with people who are better than you, you will get unfortunate results. If you compare with people who are not as good as you, you will get happiness.
The same thing happened to the Xu family, Gong family, Yao family and other families in Hangzhou City.
Because Yang Xiu had the right to do it first, plus he had big fists and military power to command, these wealthy businessmen could only follow Yang Xiu's rules and compensate each person at the price of one thousand kilograms of grain.
At the end of the day, Yang Xiu collected more than 100,000 kilograms of grain from these families.
When the grain was transported to the treasury, the people in Liangshan were all stupid.
Previously, he asked his grandfather and grandma to use the way of a saint to advise these rich and powerful families to provide more food and to accumulate merit by providing disaster relief and rescuing the people. At that time, those people said that the landlords did not have any surplus food.
But now that Yang Xiu is out, he will know if they have any surplus food.
In just one day, the 'compensation' grain treasury sent by various families was almost full.
