Chapter 10 Robbery
"It was really used." The old lady said, nudging little Chen, "The elder family said that the eldest son was going to retire this year, and he needed to clear the way for the problem, so all the money was used."
Jiang Hailin was immediately displeased when he heard this, "Mom! Didn't you say you gave me ten taels of silver? Aren't you too biased? No wonder you said you didn't have it when I asked you for it before."
The village head felt that he rolled his eyes the most today in his life and simply ignored Jiang Hailin's dissatisfaction.
He said exhaustedly, "What do you mean by dredging? Don't talk nonsense. You will be punished for fraud. Confiscating property and exiling are both light punishments. How many heads do you have to be chopped off?"
"Ahem! Don't talk nonsense. I'm going to visit the teacher."
This time the old man also knew the seriousness of the matter. How could an old woman like me, who is so ignorant, tell anyone about bribing the examiner?
"It is impossible for the test questions to be leaked in advance. Don't talk nonsense, or no one can save you."
The head of the village snorted coldly. This was the second time. Such outrageous words made him terrified and he wanted to run away.
Being uneducated is terrible!
"Yes, yes, yes! No matter what the boss did, the money is gone." The old man is single now, and he has no money anyway.
"I'm wondering if your Jiang family is trying to default on their debts? Go out and ask around. Our Li family is not someone you can easily mess with. If you don't come out, we'll charge in."
The clamor outside was still going on, and Jiang Youzhen decided to watch the show.
Unexpectedly, she saw the play a little too early, so it can be said that she did not realize how evil human nature is.
The old man followed the head of the village out, and a dozen strong men came to the Li family. They were obviously guards, and they were all strong and sturdy.
There were a lot of onlookers gathered on the dirt wall of the Jiang family. Everyone was pointing fingers at the Jiang family, making it like a stage in the village.
Jiang Youzhen looked over and saw many villagers sitting on the wall, all of them very excited.
The old man was very concerned about his reputation. He drove everyone away, but unfortunately, no one paid any attention to him.
Like a fly on a pile of cow dung, you can't drive it away.
"Everyone! I'm the head of the village, please don't be impulsive. I've heard about the Li family's affairs, but there is no such precedent in Qinghe Village, and there won't be any in the future.
This silver will be returned to the Li family. You can give Jiang He a few days to collect the silver. In three days, return it to the Li family. "
Seeing that the old man didn't say anything, the village head had no choice but to stand up.
He will shorten his life if he plays this role! Whoever wants to play this role can do it in the future!
"What do we need money for? We need people. If your Jiang family has promised something, you must give it to them.
Our young lady is still lying in the coffin waiting to be buried! If she is not buried soon, it will smell bad."
At this time, a man wearing a long cotton jacket with a front opening came out. Judging from his attire, he seemed to be a manager or something like that.
"Someone, take the remaining ten taels to the Jiang family." The steward raised his voice, glanced at everyone, and said with disdain.
"What? Didn't you say one hundred taels? Why did Master Li change his mind?"
Xiao Chen became anxious again. One hundred taels turned into twenty taels. Mr. Li was so shameless.
Is this the point? Li Zhengsheng was speechless, glared at Xiao Chen, and then bowed to the steward.
"Today, please show some mercy for my sake. Mr. Li and I are old acquaintances, so why don't I go with you and solve this matter?"
I really owe the Jiang family, he said with a sigh.
"Even if the king of heaven came today, it would be useless to save face. Before we came, the master said that he would carry away the second son of the Jiang family."
Unexpectedly, the manager didn't give him the slightest bit of face, and then sneered, "The one hundred taels is the price of a living person, and the twenty taels is the price of a breath of fresh air.
We just need someone to survive. If you really don’t have any, then a living person will do, but we don’t have much money.”
As he spoke, he threw two five-liang silver ingots in front of Mr. Jiang and began to look at Erlang who was standing behind the head of the village, with a look that showed he was determined to win him over.
"No way! Without one hundred taels, forget it!" Little Chen was dazzled by the white silver and said greedily again.
"No more, just twenty taels!" the manager said, waving his hand behind him, "Come here! Arrest him!"
Huh? Jiang Youzhen was shocked. In broad daylight, someone would forcibly rob a man?
"Oh my! Oh my god! This is too cruel, system! Say something quickly! System!"
Jiang Youzhen panicked. She was good at literature, but not martial arts! How could this small body fight against so many strong men?
"Oh my! What a sin! Erlang is still alive! Should we send him to the Li family?"
: "Isn't it? Such a thing has never happened in our Qinghe Village. Isn't this just going to die? Being nailed in the coffin while still alive."
"The Jiang family is really cruel! Erlang is the only son of the second wife."
"It's terrible! Someone is going to die! I'm going to find Chief Jiang."
The crowd was talking about it, but no one came to help. After all, Master Li was too powerful to be offended.
Shen and her three sisters were panicked, and Shen stood in front of Jiang Youzhen like a hen protecting her chicks.
"You are simply lawless. I won't sell Erlang to you, so don't even think about snatching my Erlang away from you."
"Don't catch my brother, I'm going to fight you!" Si Ya stepped forward and started punching and kicking a security guard. The security guard slapped her in the face, making Si Ya see stars.
Erya and Sanya were also aroused at this moment. Their eyes were red and they pounced on the beast, biting and scratching with all their might, using every means possible.
The courtyard was in chaos, and the village chief was so angry that he shouted, "Stop it! If you don't stop, I will sue the government and say that you are taking human lives lightly."
"Village head, take a look. This is the handprint of the old man of the Jiang family. It is the deed to sell the second son of the Jiang family. He is still the head of the family. If he says to sell, he will sell it.
"My master is kind-hearted, and giving twenty taels is already a lot. If you hadn't delayed, he would have given a hundred taels yesterday. Even if you sell your Jiang family's Erlang to a trafficker, how much can you get?"
The steward took out a deed from his bosom and pointed it at everyone.
"Did you see that? We are not lying. We must take this man away today." The manager snorted coldly.
The head of the village looked at Grandpa Jiang angrily. He didn't expect that this old man was the most cruel person in the family.
"You did a good thing. We have never had such a thing in Qinghe Village. If you go out, people will criticize you."
"That's right! Village chief, we also saw what happened today. How can a living person be paired with a dead person? We don't have such a cruel elder in Qinghe Village."
Someone couldn't stand it anymore and finally stood up and said something fair.
"Even if he was sold to a wealthy family, it would still be a way to survive. Why do you want to send your child to die? How cruel of a master!"
"Other people sell their children to keep them alive, but you sell them for money. You are totally unscrupulous!"
He was criticized by everyone for a while, but Jiang Youzhen didn't care about it at the moment.
"Mom, let go!" She was held tightly by Shen and could not move.
"No, I won't let you go! No one can take you away unless I die." Shen shook her head repeatedly. Her hair was disheveled and she looked very embarrassed.
