Chapter 1 At the beginning, the government asked to choose a wife

"Tiezhu his baby, Tiezhu his baby!"

Early in the morning.

Lin Fan was woken up by a cry.

Looking at the mottled adobe walls and the bare-walled home, he confirmed once again that he had really traveled through time and came to a strange and different world, and it was not a dream.

"Hey~"

Although I have been in this world for a few days.

But when he saw the home with leaky walls, Lin Fan still couldn't help but sigh.

He is a modern good boy. He has food and drink every day. In his free time, he can also meet up with girls to play black games and play games. Although he is not very good, he is not bad either.

But once I stayed up late playing games and fell asleep at the computer desk, I was transported back in time inexplicably.

Come to a world similar to ancient times.

Compared to happy modern times.

Here he was devastated.

His mother had a difficult delivery when giving birth to him, and his father was a traditionalist who simply took care of him.

Two years ago, my father went up the mountain to cut firewood. He accidentally fell into the mountain stream and left after only two days.

Now the whole family.

He is the only seedling that has just reached its crown.

As for the possessions.

There is only this adobe house and a fairly spacious yard.

Both parents died.

I have a room at home.

At first glance this looks like a protagonist template.

But in fact,

There will soon be no rice left in the pot.

Thinking of this,

He sighed again.

Staying up late playing games is a no-no.

Please arrange your game time reasonably.

"What's wrong, Uncle Wang?"

Lin Fan got up, put on complicated clothes, pushed the door open and came outside.

Now that it's here.

Life should be lived or lived.

You can't commit suicide, right?

Outside the yard.

It was a tall, thin, middle-aged man, and it was he who was shouting just now.

"Still sleeping, it depends on what time it is! Hurry up and pack up and follow me to the entrance of the village. Today is the day when the government appoints wives. Yun Niang will bring someone over right away. Come and follow me to choose a wife!"

The tall, thin middle-aged man shouted.

"The government sends a lady?"

When he heard the other party's words, Lin Fan's eyes suddenly lit up.

The place where he is now is a place called the Dalong Dynasty. Due to years of foreign wars, the people's lives are very difficult and taxes are very heavy.

But there is a benefit.

That is, in order to increase the population, the government will provide wives to single men.

Click here.

That is to say, a little lady.

This kind of good thing is impossible to achieve in modern times.

But it happened here.

And it’s the real thing!

No problem.

Lin Fan quickly cleaned up and followed the other party to the entrance of the village without even taking a bite of food.

The location of the village entrance.

Two people are already waiting.

They were all skinny black men, not very tall, with swarthy skin. It was obvious at first glance that they were good farmers. They were looking longingly at the dirt road outside the village entrance.

Compared to the man who went to the fields early to dig for food, Lin Fan was obviously much more prosperous. Because he was the only child in the family and was frail and sick since he was young, his father did not let him do any work.

even,

I also let him study for several years.

It's also because of this.

When he stood in the team, he seemed to stand out from the crowd.

Just waiting for this.

At the end of the dirt road, a group of people walked slowly over.

The leader was an old lady, wearing a festive red dress, holding a palace fan in her hand, swaying her big buttocks as she walked, with a graceful expression on her face, and she looked full of taste.

This is exactly what Uncle Wang calls Yun Niang, the person responsible for dispatching his wife.

behind her.

Followed by five young women, each with expectations and apprehensions on their faces.

The two in front are big-chested and round-waisted, a typical country girl who is good at giving birth and can work hard.

But the last three.

But it looks different.

Not only does she look fair and pretty, she also has a graceful figure and a slim waist.

Although he is wearing linen clothes.

But that proud capital has not been covered up.

"Damn it! Is there such a good thing?"

Lin Fan thought that the daughters-in-law distributed were just like the modern subsistence allowances. They were some crooked and cracked dates that no one wanted, and they were left to honest people like them from poor families to take over.

But I never expected it.

There are some excellent ones among them.

And there are still three!

"Yun Niang, you are finally here."

The middle-aged man whom Lin Fan called Uncle Wang greeted the team with a smile.

"Well, something happened on the way and I was delayed. I'm sorry, Mr. Wang."

Yun Niang smiled sweetly and replied, although she is not young, she is full of charm.

Uncle Wang laughed and said loudly, "It doesn't matter."

"Okay, to make a long story short, I've been wasting a lot of time. Let's start choosing."

Yun Niang lightly fanned her hand, then looked at Lin Fan and others: "These are the men of school age in your village this year, right? There are fewer men than in previous years."

"Well, it's just the three of them this year."

Uncle Wang smiled and nodded.

"Okay, let's choose."

Yun Niang also nodded, and then ordered the five women to come forward.

When they saw the three graceful women, who were completely different from the village women, the eyes of the two dark men who also chose the wife were straightened with desire.

But looking at the waists and slender arms of the three women, they finally gritted their teeth and turned their heads, pointing at the other two women with strong physiques.

Although Dalong was given a daughter-in-law, he still had to pay a poll tax. For every additional person, he had to pay an additional tax.

The more people in the family, the more friends you have.

Under the high pressure of the government, everyone except the dead must pay taxes.

No one is exempt!

In this era, it is difficult for people to survive.

If you choose someone whose shoulders can't resist and whose waist can't be carried back, they, who are already struggling to survive, will just wait to die.

Between life and beauty.

People can only choose to live first.

Two "suitable" ones were selected, and the remaining three were "unsuitable".

Uncle Wang, the head of the village, frowned when he saw the three girls and said to Yun Niang: "Are they just the three of them? Are there any others? My nephew is weak and the family cannot afford to support anyone else."

These words are all implicit.

Ever since Lin Fan's old father passed away, Lin Fan couldn't live any longer.

If another idler comes.

The whole family will starve to death.

And even if you starve to death, you can still get relief.

I'm just afraid that I won't be able to pay the poll tax.

In Dalong.

The penalty for not being able to pay the poll tax was very terrifying.

The men were directly enslaved and sent to the army.

Women are sold into brothels and become prostitutes to generate income for the country.

Use official words.

Dalong does not raise worthless people.

This is not just talk, even the emperor himself has to pay the poll tax!

Wang Lichang finished speaking.

Yun Niang hasn't spoken yet, but the remaining three girls are anxious.

This is their last trip today. Before this, they had already failed countless times.

If no one chooses them today, they will be labeled as having no value to Dalong and be forcibly sold into a brothel to generate income for Dalong.

As a decent woman.

Sold into a brothel to pick up clients.

This is worse than killing them.

But in fact, even if they commit suicide, they dare not, because if they dare to commit suicide, the rest of the family will be implicated, the men will be sent to the army, and the women will be sold into brothels.

So the only way is to marry yourself out.

otherwise,

Tragic fate!

"Young Master, choose me. I can do anything in the slave family and listen to you in everything!"

"Young master, you should choose me. I can do anything, and I still eat less."

"Young Master..."

The three girls competed for the chance, fearing that they would lose the election and become women in a brothel.

"this···"

Lin Fan was speechless for a moment.

Before,

Women of this quality, let alone rushing to deliver them to your door, you can't even ask for them.

But now,

But the other party rushed to make all kinds of promises, and almost fell to his knees.

Even if he wanted to, the other party would definitely kneel down, stick out his big butt and cry for help.

"What are you doing! What are you doing! Go back and stand still!"

Yun Niang scolded her with a cold face, and the two yamen servants who followed behind were drawing their swords.

When the three women saw this, their faces turned pale, and they were so frightened that Wei Nuo Nuo did not dare to say a word.

But his pitiful tearful eyes kept looking at Lin Fan, with pleading in his eyes.

"Okay, you choose quickly, this is the batch for this year, there are no others."

Yun Niang arranged for the three girls and looked at Lin Fandao with a smile on her face again.

But Lin Fan was silent for a moment.

Faced with the pleading of the three women, he naturally wanted to save them all from their misery.

But Dalong's head tax.

He also knew it.

In his current situation, it is difficult to support himself.

Add three more.

It is definitely a fate to be exiled to the army.

Dalong does not refuse you to choose multiple wives, and even wants you to choose multiple wives.

Because the more you choose, the more you have to pay for the head tax. It is not just the normal three people, but it has to be added up proportionally.

Three daughters-in-law.

Definitely more than three head taxes!

This is aimed at the rich, specifically to harvest the wool of those wealthy households and gentry. However, even wealthy households with substantial financial resources cannot withstand the superposition of poll taxes in this way.

He can be a good modern man.

I hate to see my little sister cry.

and···

He really wants it all.

what to do?

Ding dong!
