All the people in Shuidong Village were named Chen, and the big Chen family in the village was harassed by officials like Li Jifu. His face was already filled with bitterness when he heard that Li Jifu came to visit.

But the county magistrate had already arrived at the door, so he still had to kill pigs and sheep. Seeing Li Jifu coming in with an iron fork, Chen Dahu's face became even more bitter.

Li Jifu smiled, leaned the iron fork directly beside the Grand Master's chair, sat on the chair with his hands folded, and looked sideways at Chen Dahu.

"Baozheng, is the harvest going well this year?"

Chen Dahu couldn't stand the psychological pressure, so he stood up and complained to Li Jifu: "It's not because we don't want to serve the imperial court, but because the people in this village are very afraid of the supervisory committee. Dare to sign up."

With a bang, Chen Dahu was startled, and when he looked up, Li Jifu slapped the table with his eyebrows upside down.

Li Jifu pointed at Chen Dahu with his long-nailed finger and cursed: "You have been waiting for me to recommend the committee. Supervisory Committee, Supervisory Committee. I also live in Shangrao County. I must not be that stupid and incompetent official." How come you don’t know the situation in this county?”

"Under our governance, where is the supervisory committee in Shangrao County? It's so scary that you, Dahu Chen, said it. It's because you failed to appease the family and make the people Panicked, don’t I know I’m hiding it? Every day you work with the supervisory committee, and you haven’t seen any less money, and almost everyone has two hearts, I’m afraid you, Mr. Chen, are deliberately shirking!”

Chen Dahu was so frightened by Li Jifu's words that he shook his hands again and again, and said bitterly, "My lord is joking, how can a villain deserve the crime of adultery with the Supervisory Committee?"

That Chen Dahu was very frightened by Li Jifu's words. Li Jifu was controlling his emotions, but suddenly he stopped talking and sat back on his chair to continue drinking tea.

Chen Dahu didn't know what the county magistrate meant when he was cold and hot, so he didn't dare to sit down and watched Li Jifu's performance with sweat on his head.

After a while, I heard Li Jifu gently put the lid of the tea on the table, and said with a smile: "Master Chen, your two sons are both studying in the county. Take care of them, so I will take them to my yamen for food and lodging, so that I can cultivate two seeds of reading."

Hearing this, Dahu Chen's face turned pale immediately, and he hastily begged, "My family is not prosperous, and this branch is just these two seedlings... Your Excellency..."

"It's just such a good boy who can inherit the family business, isn't it?"

Li Jifu laughed.

"You can take care of the demolition in Zhuangzi, and I will work with you in ten days to make up the quota of two hundred Baoding for me, and go to the county to train within a limited time. If I give you more grace, I will have to tattoo some words on the faces of your family members as a punishment."

Chen Dahu was taken aback, "Sir, my two children are only in their teens, if they get stabbed, how will they make a living in the future?"

"My lord, please be accommodating."

As he said that, Chen Dahu turned blind and signaled to the servant, and the servant ran out in a hurry, and brought a large plate of gold and silver over after a while.

Li Jifu's expression became better when he saw the plate of silver, but he still smiled and said: "Master Chen has been responding to everyone in the village. Could it be said that he will not be able to recruit a guard in ten days? You can tell just by seeing this silver coin." You, Master Chen, have the strength."

Chen Dahu looked at the smile on Li Jifu's face, and his heart fell completely to the bottom. He finally saw through that this official was very evil and wanted both money and things.

Thinking of his two only sons, he is almost six now, and if he wants to have such two sons, he will not be able to have such two sons. Master Chen secretly made a resolution in his heart.

That night, he didn't talk about it any more. Master Chen served more than 100 soldiers, the two capitals and Li Jifu a sumptuous banquet, and in the middle of the night he hurriedly called a few capable men in the village to discuss it secretly.

Early on the next morning, Li Jifu got up from his drunken sleep. He saw Chen Dahu waiting in front of the hall with a low eyebrow. Li Jifu smiled in his heart, thinking that beating him was enough. This is what this local snake wants to exploit. Come out with oil.

As soon as Chen Dahu saw him, he quickly put on a smiling face, stepped forward with a smile and said: "When the bankers heard that Mr. Chen wanted to protect his armor, they all thought that this was a matter of course. They were all enthusiastic about it. Now, they have compiled 100 Many people came.”

Li Jifu was overjoyed when he heard this but was also amused in his heart, "Didn't I mention earlier that people in the village are afraid of the Supervisory Committee and don't dare to come out?"

Hearing this, Chen Dahu had an embarrassed look on his face, lowered his head and said nothing.

Li Jifu laughed out loud.

"Sir, those village leaders are waiting in the flower hall now. Do you want to give them a lecture?"

Li Jifu first called a personal follower and told him to ask Chen Tou to lead people to guard him. After he finished, he secretly observed and saw that Chen Dahu's expression was the same, and he was still timid, so he nodded secretly and then asked Chen Dahu to lead him. Go see those Zhuangtou.

When he came to the flower hall, Li Jifu saw two tanned men sitting in the room calmly.

Li Jifu's heart lit up as soon as he saw those two men. He hadn't seen such mighty men in a long time. They really looked loyal and patriotic.

When the two men saw Chen Dahu coming, they also stood up and looked at Li Jifu.

Li Jifu asked: "How old are you two?"

The two men laughed, one said it was 35 and the other said it was 29.

As soon as Li Jifu heard the two of them speaking, he felt that their accents were not right, so he asked again: "Where are you two from?"

Both men had smiles on their faces, and one of them answered: "I am from Qingzhou, and I came to Shangrao County to work."

Li Jifu nodded: "Qingzhou, it's miserable to be harmed by that supervisory committee."

"Hehe, it's not miserable, it's better than the people here, and you won't have to suffer too much from the government!"

Li Jifu's color changed instantly, but the young man looked calm and looked back at him with a smile. This sight made Li Jifu's hair stand on end.

He quickly backed away, and the soldiers behind him were already very nervous when they heard this, and they drew out their weapons one after another, and Chen Dutou, who came with Li Jifu, quickly drew his knife.

But when the two of them gave them a chance, when everyone was shocked, the young man reached into his clothes and took out a Dengzhou-[-] pistol with an armed belt.

Two shots were fired, one shot killed Chen Dutou, and the other shot opened a bloody hole in Li Jifu's head.

Suddenly, the two leaders were killed instantly, and the soldiers under their command were so frightened that their faces turned pale.

The two men shouted loudly: "The Supervisory Committee is doing its work. If you want to survive, be honest and obey. If you don't do it today, I will ask you to go under the knife."

Chen Dahu on the side was very frightened when he saw the two people dead on the ground, but at this time he still endured the fear and stood up and said: "I invited these two people, because Li Jifu forced him too much, so he had to do it. Everyone is a witness, and I put down my weapons for everyone. The Supervisory Committee has always been very trustworthy in its work."
