Chapter 538 Negotiation

A thousand-mile dike breaks in an ant nest.

The old village chief sighed and looked at those people stepping forward, knowing that the situation was over.

After receiving this money, more than a dozen fishing villages no longer have the same mind.

Qian Henian stamped his feet anxiously, "You guys are so confused when you come back. This is all fake. They will definitely take the money back by then!"

"Brother Nian, with so many pairs of eyes looking at you, it shouldn't be a problem!"

Qian Henian was stunned and looked at the sturdy man, "Dahu, are you going to get money too?"

"My family is so poor that we can't let the blame go. My mother told me to let my sister work as a maid in the landlord's house and sell me a sum of money to get me a wife.

With this money, my sister no longer has to work as a cow or horse for others.

Not only can I get a wife, but I can also give my sister a dowry!" Dahu scratched his head in embarrassment, "I'm sorry!"

"You, you idiot, that's all a lie!" Qian Henian pointed at him, trembling with anger.

However, there are still some people who have never experienced it.

It’s not that I don’t want to go, it’s just that there are too many people.

He walked quickly to the old village chief and said, "Dad, what should I do?"

"Keep those who should be kept, and let them go if you can't keep them!" the old village chief said coldly.

In less than an hour, the 30,000 taels of silver were distributed, and two hundred households benefited.

Deng Chushan said: "The 30,000 taels of silver have been distributed. Those of you who took the silver, remember to move all your belongings away within three days, otherwise someone will come and demolish the house.

Secondly, you remember to take your household registration certificate and go to the magistrate's office to register and claim the rental house. You can move in at any time.

When the land is divided tomorrow, I will invite everyone in the city to bear witness.

See if what I, Deng Chushan, said is false!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Those holding silver in their hands were all happy.

None of them could bear it any longer and rushed home holding the money in their arms.

And those from other villages who didn't get any money were all filled with hatred.

I just regret that my home is not here and I can't get my household registration certificate.

Now I'm fine, I can only stare from the sidelines when I see others eating with their mouths full of oil.

The original fishing village alliance collapsed in an instant.

There are even some people who are lucky enough to have money in the Year of the Crane.

"Aren't you talking nonsense? You are also saying that the Yamen is a liar. I think you know nothing!"

"No wonder you people in Qianjia Village are the most violent. You get all the benefits first."

"You bastard, you are really good at treating us like a mallet!"

These people scolded them as they walked, and no one in Qianjia Village dared to reply for fear of being beaten.

There are still some die-hard loyalists of the village chief in Qianjia Village who do not take any money.

"Brother Nian, we all listened to you and didn't waver!"

"Don't worry, you are right to listen to me. These people are short-sighted and will definitely be in trouble!" Qian Henian vowed.

...

Soon, Deng Chushan returned to the government office and he breathed a sigh of relief.

And the news had already spread throughout the world.

Everyone knows that people from Qianjia Village have benefited, and soon people from other fishing villages will come.

"How much money is there in the treasury now?" Deng Chushan asked.

"Sir, I still have 150,000 taels, which is enough to deal with 1,500 households." The staff said.

Deng Chushan nodded, "It's enough. If it's not enough, let a few other colleagues join in. You must handle this matter for me. If something goes wrong again, I won't be able to spare you!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Also, if the government servant dies, give him more compensation. If there are children at home, let his children take his place.

If there are no children, arrange for his parents." Deng Chushan knew very well that the fishermen could not be held responsible for this matter, otherwise there would be no way to end it.

"I understand, villain!"

After the staff left, Deng Chushan said angrily, "It was really dangerous today, but fortunately, this matter is over."

As long as the land is divided, people will come over one after another. At least the fishing village will not be a problem.

Even if there are people who are unwilling to leave, they must be in the minority and will not affect the overall situation.

As the head of a government, he knew how difficult it was to popularize the new laws of the imperial court. If he were not careful, he could capsize the ship.

Thinking of this, he sighed again.

For what happened today, he had to write a memorial to the court and ask the court to allocate funds. Otherwise, he would not be able to sustain it.

I don't know if the court will criticize him or what.

He had no confidence at all.

At this moment, a government servant came over in a hurry and said, "Sir, there are a few people outside who say they are your old acquaintances!"

"Oh, who?"

"This is that person's letter!" The officer handed the letter over.

Deng Chushan frowned, took the letter, opened it, and immediately stood up straight, "Where are they?"

"Just outside."

"Quick, tell them to come in. Remember, you must be respectful. Do you understand?" As soon as he finished speaking, he hurriedly stopped the yamen servant, "Forget it, I'll invite him in person!"

Deng Chushan trotted out and saw Zhu Jun standing there.

He subconsciously wanted to call His Highness King Wu, but thinking of what was said in the letter, he hurriedly said: "What kind of wind has brought Mr. Li here!"

He walked quickly to Zhu Jun and said, "I'm here to see Mr. Li!"

Zhu Jun smiled and held his hand, "Prefect Deng, we are all acquaintances, there is no need to be polite!"

"It's my honor for you to come here, please!" Deng Chushan said hurriedly.

Zhu Jun nodded and walked ahead unceremoniously.

Li Xiangjun was even more beautiful, and even the prefect of the central government respected him so much. In other words, Li Bai was at least a third-rank official in the capital.

It is even very possible that he is a marquis.

For such a young high-ranking official, his future is limitless.

After entering the backyard and taking a seat, Zhu Jun said: "When I entered, I watched a good show on the tidal flat. Magistrate Deng was involved in danger alone. It was really amazing!"

Deng Chushan knew that Zhu Jun must have known about it, and his heart was filled with excitement, "I can't bear the praise of the adults. It's really shameful that this kind of thing happened under my subordinates!"

"It is bound to be difficult for the imperial court to implement the new law. Everything is difficult at the beginning, just like life, nothing is smooth sailing." Zhu Jun comforted him with a smile.

Hearing this, Deng Chushan breathed a sigh of relief, just don't blame him.

"By the way, Mr. Li, you came to Songjiang Mansion this time for inspection?"

"I'm just on my way, come and take a look!" Zhu Jun smiled, "There are still some things I need to discuss with you!"

After saying this, Deng Chushan hurriedly withdrew, and Li Xiangjun also stood up hurriedly, "Sir, little one, go out and get some fresh air!"

Zhu Jun didn't stop him either. It was really inconvenient for her to know what happened next.

Shen Erbao is one of our own, so there is no need to leave.

"Your Majesty, please see His Highness the King of Wu!" Deng Chushan hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty deserves to die, please punish His Highness the King of Wu."
