Chapter 41

After a while, Li Zhuang's village guards, each holding a black shotgun, or a large sleeve, and some carrying a spear, gathered in the open space in front of the tower.

Li Chong stood under the tower, and the two brothers Shunsheng and Hengsheng stood behind each with a box cannon stuck in their waists, which made the eyes of the people in the village protection team shine. Hip box cannon.

The Zhuangzhuang team was divided into three rows, eight people in a row, the leader was the second master Li Youcun, the posthumous son of Li Qiantang's father and brother, who was a round older than Li Chong.In Li's genealogy, his seniority is the same as his father's, and he is also called the second master in this yard.They are both "second masters", but Li Deyi and Li Youcun are really different. When Li Youcun is mentioned, the villagers, including the tenants, will give a thumbs up, because he has no airs and can sit on the haystack with a bowl and protect the village. The team members chatted.

The safety inside and outside of this village is all taken care of by the second master Li Youcun and the people who lead the village guard team, so the people in the village saw Li Youcun sincerely called "Second Master".

But when it came to Li Deyi, if he wasn't the biological son of the respected and respected old man Li Qiantang in the village, he wouldn't add the word "father" against his will.

"Xiao Chong, what did you call the big guys here for?" Li Youcun asked sweating. Just now, he led the people to practice in the midday sun when they didn't have to do farm work, and rushed over when they heard the bell.

"Only one thing, teach Sun Chenghai of the grain requisition team to be a man! He is bullying no one in our Zhuangzi, and comes to scrape oil one after another." Under the publicity of various villages, Sun Chenghai's reputation of "Sun scraping oil" has become bad.

Speaking of him, not a few people are filled with righteous indignation.Because the food requisitioning team is calculated according to the village, and it has to be distributed to everyone. If the food is collected one after another, the food in the family will be less.

In Zhaduo Town, in Yu Feng Restaurant.

While all the masters were discussing, Li Derun was sitting on one side of the round table, touching the watch in his sleeve with one hand, thinking that that night, Sun Chenghai's subordinates were wearing military uniforms and handing over a red invitation card with one hand behind their backs. , Li Derun knew that this was another "meat cutting feast".

But I am the head of the family, and my surname is Li!Even if it's a Hongmen banquet, you have to come.And at this moment, Li Derun's heart also calmed down. The worry at the beginning was just that he was caught off guard when he suddenly received the invitation card, but thinking about the current cards of the Li family, he spent money to support the village guard team set up by his second cousin Li Youcun. You can also wrench your wrists!

"Hahaha, Mr. Sun is here to thank all the lords for your kindness." When all the landlords and lords gathered together to discuss with each other, Sun Chenghai led two guards with spears on their backs and walked up the stairs and came to the crowd. He bowed his hands and saluted, with a bright smile on his face.

"Let's all take a seat." Sun Chenghai waved his hand, and he came to the upper seat and sat with a sword and a golden horse. "When I came to Zhaduo, I saw everyone familiar with me. I, Mr. Sun, feel very kind! Even For breakfast, I ate an extra bun."

Huang Guifa stood up and cupped his hands, "Captain Sun has worked hard, and he still has to lead the brothers all over the city."

Sun Chenghai raised his wine glass with both hands, and saluted all the masters in front of the round table, "Hey, if Zhuangzi in this city can be as considerate of the captain as Mr. Huang, then my job will not be difficult, and it won't be so difficult." It's a lot of talking, isn't it? I hope that all the masters can support the work of my grandson!"

Looking at Sun Chenghai's face, many of the masters down here are tired of their hearts, and they all know the basics. Who doesn't know that your so-called "no labor of words" is to use foreign money to fill it up. There is no appetite for the delicious food and wine on the table.

"Captain Zheng has an idea, please speak up." Li Derun, who was sitting in the middle, asked directly.The eldest son has found a way out for the whole family, and Li Derun has less worries about speaking.

When Sun Chenghai saw that it was Li Derun from Lizhuang who was speaking, he was too hard to be a snake.In terms of the amount of land, this Li village is not the largest, and even more than half of the people here are beyond the size of the Li family.But this Li Zhuang is definitely one of the toughest ones.If he went to Li Zhuang's territory, he wouldn't be able to be as majestic as this.

The reason is that the old man of the Li family is too good at being a man, and [-]% of the people in Li Zhuang are farming for the Li family.Damn, these tenant farmers don't know what kind of ecstasy soup was poured into them by the Li family, and they heard what the Li family said from beginning to end.The Zhuangzhuang team can also come up with things that are handy, at least they don't have to hold a dog with their bare hands.

"Oh? Hahaha, I like Mr. Li's straightforwardness. Actually, I am a big soldier, and I also like to go straight to the point. I said straight to the point, this time I will collect [-] denier rice in Zhaduo!" Regarding Li Derun's question, Sun Cheng Hai reported the numbers readily.Anyway, after finishing the money, I will leave. What is there to worry about?
Once the rice is one hundred catties, the fifty-denier rice is five thousand catties of rice. You must know that this is rice, not grain.As soon as the number was said, all the gentlemen below discussed in whispers.His face was full of unhappiness, and it was fine to shave oil one after another, but each time he got worse and worse.

Sun Chenghai drank by himself with a wine glass, and gave the people below time to discuss. He thought proudly that you rural rich men, each of you has more food than the other, and the ropes that tie foreign money can be rotten. , every time you press it, you can catch the oil and water, if you don’t catch it, who will you catch?Besides, wouldn't it be cheaper for the Japanese if you don't get you, it's better to let someone from me, Sun, spend a lot of money for you.Anyway, after making this money, I will leave with my brother-in-law's family, and let you country bumpkins be the ghosts of the Japanese swordsmen, and you have to make a good money before you leave.

"Captain Sun, it's probably too much this time." A master from another village spoke below.

Sun Chenghai lowered his wine glass, "As I said just now, you have to be considerate of my work, Mr. Sun. And this is a task assigned by the provincial government. There is a war ahead, and those of us in the rear can't get out. Shouldn't some money and food be provided to support the front line?"

Li Derun pointed his fingers, "Captain Sun, if I remember correctly, the last time we were asked to donate money and food, we have already done so."

Sun Chenghai frowned, Xuan'er loosened his brows and put on a smile, "Last time, the higher-ups were not satisfied with the quantity, and it's because I'm too easy to get along with you. Once the masters whispered in my ear, I let go." , all the masters are also considerate of me, the captain of the grain requisition team, the job is not easy to do! If there is a slight mistake, I will be approved by the superiors."

Hmph, no one will believe you!All the landlords and squires thought in their hearts.What is "dissatisfied with the quantity above", and I don't know how much I was greedy by this "Sun Shayou" last time.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Sun Chenghai turned to Li Derun, as if changing the topic for discussion later, or making things difficult for Li Derun, turning his wine glass and talking, "Oh, Li's family. Actually, I have always had a very curious question. Did Li Zhuang come first and then the Li family, or did the Li family come first and then Lizhuang?"
