The master said, "The adults are unwilling to do it, and this is to fry the students' about 100 kilograms of meat and make oil to sell them. They can't get 150,000 taels of silver or 50,000 s of food."

Liu Ning pretended that the other party complained was not seen. When these people went to the countryside to collect taxes, they had seen others begging hard? When others begged him, they were arrogant. So Liu Ning also imitated them and directly pretended that they had not seen them. When the other party complained, he directly said loudly: "This is your business. If you can't raise it, use your head to support it and calculate it by weight."

After Liu Ning said this, Zhou Wentong and his master were both frowning. They were usually domineering the country, arrogant, bullying the people, and doing everything. However, now they have fallen into the hands of robbers and are forced to ask for money, and they have suffered heavy casualties.

Zhou Wentong said: "This hero has raised so much food in the short term. There is really no way to do so. Can you be given one or two days?"

Liu Ning said: "Don't say that one or two days, there will be no problem even if it's ten or eight days, but you have thought about it. Are you happy to stay in the county? If we have been here for a long time, the court will know that you have lost Jimo County. Let me ask you, how should you answer when the court asks for crimes and accountability?"

Zhou Wentong only thought of this section now that she realized that she was afraid that the robber’s request was not met. Although he was killed with one knife, if the court knew that he had lost the county town and the robbers had robbed the county government, he probably had to move his head. This was really a dilemma and a dilemma.

Zhou Wentong said: "Dear heroes! Jimo is not my Zhou Wentong alone, it is everyone's, it is the county town of all Jimo people. Since all the heroes are coming here to fight Qiugu, I will ask everyone to discuss how to do it together."

Liu Ning said: "Do you want other people to gather together to beat us?"

Zhou Wentong said: "I dare not."

Liu Ning said, "I am not afraid even if I call you. I am here. I dare to resist and kill you. I don't care who you are. And I can tell you something with the surname Zhou. Our heroes from Jufeng Mountain have always been robbing the rich and helping the poor and practicing the law for heaven. If you dare to blame all these things on the people, I will be the first to kill you."

After Liu Ning's intimidation, Zhou Wentong's face turned paler. In fact, the idea he had just made was to gather people in the county to fight with them. At that time, he could get a reputation of both being burned and killing the enemy.

But Liu Ning saw through his trick at a glance. He dared to do this, and Liu Ning immediately slashed him with one knife.

Zhou Wentong said: "The power of Xiaguan's family really can't get so much money and food. Can I summon some wealthy gentry and wealthy families in the city to come and discuss how to pledge it?"

Liu Ning said: "Yes, you can invite all the powerful people in the city to come here to discuss matters. I don't care about the 150,000 taels of silver and 50,000 s of grain you get. As long as you can get it, I don't care."

Zhou Wentong said frowningly: "Okay! Please wait."

The servants of the Liu Mansion took over Jimo County. They only had more than 600 people, and they were short of staff. It was a bit difficult to control all the places. They controlled several strategic points and blocked all the soldiers in the military camp, which gained the upper hand for a while. However, they had a small amount of staff. If the people in the city got up to make trouble, they could not suppress them. They came to grab money, not to kill people, and if they killed innocent people on a large scale, it was not their original intention.

So Liu Zhongyong has been secretly in charge of the matter. After he controlled the county town, he asked Liu Ning to blackmail Zhou Wentong. He sent cavalrymen to shout on the street: "The heroes of Jufeng Mountain have always robbed the rich and helped the poor, and have practiced the way for the heavens, and have nothing to do to the people. This time he came to Jimo just to fight Qiugu with the officials and landlords. It has nothing to do with the people. Please don't make trouble."

His shouting was both a warning and a notice of peace and security, which made the situation temporarily stabilize.

The people heard that the county town was occupied, and the four gates were blocked by robbers. The robbers also occupied the county government and arrested the county magistrate. Of course, they dare not cause trouble now. If anyone dares to emerge, they will be cut by the robbers and complain to anyone, and there will be no place to complain! Therefore, the people in the bustling county town dare not go out, and they are deserted. Except for the cavalry and infantry patrolling the Liu Mansion, there is no one on the street.

Liu Zhongyong asked the people to hide at home and ignore and ask about this bad thing. This is the best choice. If the people make trouble, they really can't suppress them and have to run away.

Now they only say that they only want to rob the rich and help the poor, they only want to rob the landlords, they only want to rob the officials, and they don’t rob the people of the people. Isn’t this the way for the heroes of Liangshan to do this?

Since the heroes come to rob officials and landlords, there is no need to stand up for them, so they all hide at home and don’t go out on the streets.

The people can hide, but the officials and the landlords and wealthy people cannot hide. Under the leadership of the chief Li Xiaoqiang, they visited the gentry and landlords in the city one by one, and invited them all to the county government and asked them to pledge them.

No one can afford such a large sum of money, and Zhou Wentong could not afford it anyway. He had to invite all the wealthy families and gentry in the city to discuss how to meet Liu Ning and the others' requirements.

The gentry and the rich were very angry. Why didn’t the damn county magistrate count us if there are good things? Now that there are these bad things, we are the first to invite us all to come and ask us to raise money. They dare not say it, but they hate this county magistrate in their hearts.

Zhou Wentong once again told the whole story of this matter. To put it bluntly, the heroes of Jufeng Mountain have captured the county town and came here to raise food and grass. If these people are willing to hand over a large sum of money, they will withdraw their troops. If they are unwilling to pay the money, they will plunder it themselves. In the end, he came to a conclusion that he was paying the money obediently, which is the best way. If they resist, it will only cause everyone to suffer greater losses.

Then Zhou Wentong saw that everyone was silent and knew that it was impossible to let these people take out the money. She only ordered each person to donate a sum of money. If she didn't donate, the robbers could only go to the mansion to collect it.

Zhou Wentong became fierce. These talents had no choice but to discuss donating a large amount of money, but in the end they pledged only 80,000, which was only half of the 150,000 they requested. The food was also pledged to donate 20,000 stones, and then it was gone.

No matter how Zhou Wentong spoke, these people never nodded. Several people even said tactfully: "If you don't want money, just one is the only one to kill. There is only so much money, just forget it if you don't want it."

Now everyone is in trouble. Zhou Wentong has lost the protection of his official position, and no one is afraid. People like him are accusing him of not being able to protect the place, so that robbers come to the door. Now everyone is going to lose money and eliminate disasters.

Zhou Wentong had no choice but to explain: "This is not what I welcome. It is the people from Jufeng Mountain who come here to beg for alms. I am asking everyone to donate money now to protect everyone's lives and to transform money and eliminate disasters.

But no matter what Zhou Wentong said, the others refused to donate again. Anyway, what they mean was that Zhou Wentong was the official, and he had to donate himself and subscribe to a large portion.

In fact, Zhou Wentong never wanted to be this evil man. Now all the local wealthy businessmen and gentry were present. He offended these people like this. He could not survive locally and could not stay there anymore. But now there was no way. The robbers pressed their swords on his neck. If they refused to obey their arrangements and orders, they would cut them down and chopped them down. As for the future, they would only care about it later. Now he just wanted to live for a long time.

Then Zhou Wentong had no choice but to commit a forced levy. He said: "If you don't want to give a donation, there is no way. You have to let the people from Qingfeng Mountain get it by themselves. At that time, these are all rude people, and those who are rude heroes will be hurt and damaged at home, and they will not be related to our official's affairs."

Zhou Wentong has been in charge of the local area for a year, and his control ability is still quite strong. After coming here, he has formed a group of local officials and gentry, and has also made a lot of money. He has accumulated a lot of connections. If he expires every three years, he can still have relationships with him, and he can change to positions in every place or even appreciate. However, now that he has had such a mess, many people have offended, and many wealthy and powerful people have been offended. It can be said that he has lost all his hard work in the past.

Zhou Wentong's forced levy was useless. These people refused to admit it. Anyway, everyone had no money, they wanted nothing, and they were alive.

When Liu Ning saw that these people were still quibbling at this moment, he was still asking for money. He pulled out his quick knife again and slashed at a fat man with one knife. The fat man quickly dispersed and ran away, saying, "Good man, please spare me! Good man, please spare me!"

Liu Ning asked someone to hold the fat man down, waved his knife and shook it in front of him, and said, "What did you say just now? Is it money or death? Let me use the knife to cut down your head, pay the money directly, and calculate the weight."

The fat man was frightened and begged bitterly, "Good man, please spare me, please spare me, I really have no money."

Liu Ning said, "I don't want money now, just live, be honest, stretch your neck and let me chop off your head."

The fat man had no choice but to admit his account and said, "Good man! I am willing to donate! I am willing to donate!"

Liu Ning slapped his head with a knife face and said, "Boys! I won't be able to take out the money if I don't fight. I want you to pay 6,000 taels now. How do you say this?"

The fat man argued forcefully: "It's obviously three thousand, but why has it become six thousand taels again? Three thousand taels more?"
