Chapter 940 Rumors 4
"Second uncle, you said that we have been blocking here for four or five days. Why don't those officials leave?"
The gray-bearded second uncle of Wangjiacun, Wang Er, must be the most senior person in Wangjiacun. Any villager who sees him must respectfully call him "second uncle".
This time, people from Wangjiacun and more than a dozen nearby villages came here to guard the officials. He was the one responsible for managing the young people in Wangjiacun.
Originally, when the Wang family said they would reduce the rent by 10% to allow the people of Wangjia Village to stop the officials, the villagers were still a little hesitant.
After all, although the status of the people of the Song Dynasty has improved a lot in recent years with Emperor Xingwu taking charge, the people's mentality of not fighting against the officials still makes everyone worried about blocking official duties.
But not long after, the second uncle's lipstick immediately made everyone determined to get involved in the matter. After all, the second uncle had spoken, and the second uncle was the most senior person in the village and had great prestige.
Everyone was also willing to listen to the second uncle, so a group of young men from the village came here.
The reason why the second uncle wants to take this troubled water is because if the Wangjia Village goes up, it is also a branch derived from the Wangjia.
After this incident came out, the Wang family sent people to the village to look for him, and promised him that if they asked the entire Wang family village to stop the officials, the second uncle's grandson could be allowed to enter the Wang family's clan school.
Entering the Wang family's family school is not just as simple as having a channel to study. Who are the people in the Wang family's family school?
They are all the children of the main line of the Wang family. If his grandson enters the clan school, he might one day be able to return to the main line.
By that time, his grandson will also be a member of the high-ranking Wang family.
For the sake of his grandson, Wang Erbi still did this dangerous thing of confronting the officials without conscience, and used his prestige to encourage all the young people in the village to come over.
After listening to the inquiries from the young people in the village, even though he was unsure, the second uncle still said confidently:
“Don’t worry, they just haven’t given up completely yet.
As long as we continue to stay here, they will retreat sooner or later. "
The young people nodded, but some still had concerns and said: "Second uncle, after all, they are official missionaries from Bianjing, and they also have soldiers. What if they really don't care about us?"
The second uncle glanced at him and said disdainfully: "Are you afraid now? Weren't you very powerful that day when you stood up in front of the officers and soldiers and told them to get out?
Are you afraid now? late! "
That young man was none other than the young man who stood up and told Zhang Yin and the others to go away.
The young man scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said:
"Isn't that because I was pushed to that point at that time, and it was difficult to get off the tiger.
I can only pretend to be brave. "
The second uncle shook his head helplessly and said: "Okay, since we have already done it, we will do it to the end.
Otherwise, how can we get the 10% rent reduction from the Wang family?
Besides, you can rest assured. Those officials dare not touch us. This is not the case now. As long as there are many of us standing in the way, the officials will not dare to touch us.
Unless he doesn't want the official skin on him anymore! "
Seeing that the second uncle said this, the others could only nod in approval.
After everyone dispersed, the second uncle sighed when he was alone. He knew that he was leading everyone to jump repeatedly on the edge of danger, although according to the situation, the other side would not dare to attack them.
But if Bao Buqi encounters someone who is strong, they will be the unlucky ones.
Waiting for them to be killed and listening, so what if compensation, justice, and revenge are given to them?
Aren’t they all gone?
But thinking of his little grandson, Wang Erbi still strengthened his heart.
Even if it means losing your own life, you must complete the mission of the Wang family!
……
"Hey! Have you heard about it? After the imperial envoys from the Guanghua County next door came over, they were all given land. Even the laziest people in their county were given five acres of land. Now every family has their own land. .
And they don’t have to pay taxes for others, they only need to pay taxes on their own fields according to the registered number of fields! "
"What? You're not bragging, are you! How can every family of them have land? Guanghua County is a famous poor county around Bianjing! If they have land, how can they be rated as a lower county? And everyone has When the land is allocated, even the laziest ones have five acres. What good things are you thinking of?
That’s not how you brag! "
"I'm not bragging! My second uncle's aunt's brother lives in Guanghua County. Their family of five originally only had five acres of land. After the imperial envoy passed, their family now has almost thirty acres of land!
I heard that the government also lent them grain seeds, so next year the whole family will be able to eat white-flour steamed buns every day! "
"real or fake?"
"Really! More real than real gold! I lied to you that I gave birth to a son without a butthole!"
“Where did that field come from?”
"Hey, where else could it come from? The local gentry and wealthy families who have concealed their land!
After the government takes over their land, they can't leave it unused, right?
Then where will we collect taxes next fall?
Therefore, after harvesting their fields, the government would not distribute the harvested fields to the local people. "
"Hiss! According to this, if the imperial envoy comes to our Dawang County, then we can also be allocated land?"
"pretty close!"
"That would be great! I hope the imperial envoy will come soon!"
"Who says it's not..."
In just one day, similar rumors instantly spread throughout Dawang County. The upper-level families in Dawang County and the dung collectors all knew about this rumor, and the entire county was discussed everywhere.
……
Wang family.
boom!
"Damn it, haven't you found out who spread the rumor? If such a rumor spreads at such a critical time, those fools might take the initiative to sell our Wang family!"
"Young Master, we have been investigating for three days. I don't know when this rumor suddenly spread, but it suddenly spread throughout the county in just one night. This is definitely not someone who heard it and spread it accidentally. It must be Someone is organizing it behind the scenes!”
"Nonsense! Can I not know? The question now is, when can you curb the rumors and find out the person behind this!
I'm telling you, you only have two days. If you can't find the source of this rumor within two days and stop it, I will let your whole family sleep on the street! "
The eldest young master of the Wang family got furious and sent all the servants to investigate.
The people who were most affected by the spread of rumors were his Wang family.
The Wang family has the most land in the entire Dawang County. In the past, all the poor people in the county were terrified when they saw the Wang family.
But these days when he was walking outside, the eyes of those mud-legged people looked at them no longer just with fear, but also with a trace of greed!
This is definitely not a good sign!
If the situation continues to develop, the power of the Wang family in the entire Dawang County will be shaken.
As the saying goes, if you open your mouth to spread rumors, you will lose your legs if you refute them. In the past few days, the Wang family has tried to stop the spread of news.
But there is no way to stop this kind of thing that is related to the interests of those mud-legged people. Their spontaneous spread is much faster and wider than the Wang family imagined!
By now, these messages have reached the point where almost no one knows about them.
Young Master Wang now only hopes that those common people who are still blocking the official road and refuse to leave must not be swayed.
Those people from the court haven’t left yet!
