Chapter 614 The Wicked Grind the Wicked (3)

Although Old Man Zhou wanted to deal with the trouble for Li Yuanqing and Liu Paner, he actually wanted to solve the trouble for his own family.

Now the third son has finally gained a foothold in Jixiang Town, and he is now General Li’s brother-in-law. He is also a well-known person in Cuiyang County.

In the future, children and grandchildren will definitely benefit from it.

When changing the family, the opportunity for the Zhou family to flourish and prosper is right in front of him, and he will never allow others to destroy it.

After Old Man Li and others left, Old Man Zhou also ended the topic, gave the fortune teller a few copper coins, and followed behind.

Because it was in the city, the speed of the ox cart was not fast, so Old Man Zhou quickly chased after him and followed him neither far nor near.

It was not until after they left the city that Old Man Zhou finally confirmed that the family was going to Jinling.

So Old Man Zhou immediately rented a donkey and ran to the front of Old Man Li and his group. After it was dark, he did not stop in the city and left the city directly.

After leaving the territory of Cuiyang County, I came to a must-pass mountain forest and led the donkey into it.

The previous mark is still there.

It was not until noon that Old Man Zhou reached the most secret entrance of the cave. He was stopped just as soon as he was about to enter.

A strong man rushed in, took a fork, scolded, "Stop, who are you?"

Old Man Zhou smiled, "Who went to inform you Old Man Huo, just say that Zhou Fugui is visiting his old friend."

The reason why I could find this place secretly is because I knew his real father.

The strong man replied: "Then wait, I will inform you. If you break in without reporting, you will be beaten to death."

The strong man asked the people behind him to report to his father that he was guarding here and did not allow Old Man Zhou to go any further.

Old Man Zhou was not in a hurry. This old man Huo was bullied by a bully and directly used a pig-killing knife to kill the bully. Then he brought his family to the mountains to hide and became a mountain citizen.

It is said to be bandits outside, but in fact it is just some refugees gathered to live in the mountains.

He had a salt business with Boss Huo in his early years, so he had some friendship. He was isolated from the world and as long as he came in and there was no one leading the way, it was impossible to come out.

At that time, Old Man Li and Old Mrs. Li's family will farm here, and will not have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives, and will not cause trouble for others.

Old Man Huo was quite curious when he heard that Old Man Zhou was coming.

Someone who has not been in contact for several years suddenly comes to the door, and that’s something!

Now his life is better at the foot of the mountain. He is looking down the mountain to see if he can find a living at the foot of the mountain.

Old Man Huo could figure it out that he hoped to live on the mountain for the rest of his life, but the younger generation always wanted to go out.

However, they are all mountain people. After they go out, they have no livelihood and their lives are not easy.

This week, the old man has many ways. Although he is also doing well, he is not bad and has a bottom line.

Maybe I can ask Old Man Zhou about the business outside.

Old Man Huo brought people over in person and saw that he said to Old Man Zhou, "Brother Zhou, you won't go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, why do you have time to come here?"

His village did not rob the house. There were dozens of people inside and outside, seven or eight families, and some of the elderly, weak, women and children they took in.

Even if the government sends people here, it is not easy to target them.

Old Man Zhou smiled, "Of course there are good things, but we have to say privately about this matter and not let too many people know about it."

The people sent by Mr. Huo checked around, but no one else came, so he felt a little relieved.

"Okay, Brother Zhou, please come in. I happened to have something to do, so I would like to ask Brother Zhou for advice."

Old Man Zhou followed Old Man Huo in, but was blindfolded and could not see the surroundings at all. He knew that he had been walking for a long time, and he was beaten around the bush.

In such a hidden place, I don’t know how Old Man Huo and his group found it here at the beginning.

When he arrived in a stone house, Old Man Huo untied the black cloth covering Old Man Zhou's face.

"Tell me, Brother Zhou, let's not go around in circles." Old Man Huo smiled and roared, and poured a glass of water for Old Man Zhou himself.

Old Man Zhou smiled, "I'm here this time and I'll pay a hundred taels of silver. Please kidnap a few people for me and come to your village to work, so as not to hurt their lives."

Old Man Huo was stunned and waved his hands repeatedly, "This is not possible. We didn't tie anyone in the most difficult time. We had to break the law at the beginning. Now life is better. We have grown some sweet potatoes that Mrs. Dere spread all over the world, and they are delicious. If you don't go hungry, who will do the kidnapping?"

Of course, Old Man Zhou could not say that this matter was related to Mrs. Derui and Li Yuanqing. If he wanted Li Yuanqing and Liu Paner to appreciate it, he had to memorize everything.

Old Man Zhou knew that it was hard to take the blame, but not everyone could take the blame, at least he had the ability to take the blame.

"It's not that you were asking you to kill and set fire, but that you just tied people to your house so that they couldn't get out. To be honest, these people were not good people. When they were fleeing famine, they sold their daughter-in-law, granddaughter, and daughter to a kiln."

"This daughter is now my daughter-in-law. My family has finally lived a peaceful life. I don't want these people to blackmail me, so I made this bad decision."

Old Man Huo was stunned, "Are you still your relative?"

Old Man Zhou nodded, "Yes, if it has nothing to do with my family, I'm too lazy to care. I didn't let you take their lives. They are just too bad, and the root is broken."

"Get them here, give them houses, farm tools, let them work and farm land, be self-sufficient, and avoid running around and biting everywhere like refugees."

Old Man Huo hesitated and did not refuse, but did not respond.

Old Man Zhou continued: "I know Brother Huo, you didn't commit a crime on purpose back then, and the bully's family is already in a downturn and has moved away. Don't you want your family to return to normal life?"

"As long as you promise to help me, I will promise to help you settle down in the mountains. In Jixiang Village, you can accept refugees and get a household registration, and you can settle down in the local Jixiang Town. You can do business or open up land."

"In addition, children in Jixiang Town can go to school to study as long as they want to study and spend a little money. Even if you don't have the skills, you can raise pigs and make a lot of money a year."

"As long as you help me, I will give you one hundred taels of silver as your home bank at the foot of the mountain. With this hundred taels of silver, you can buy a house in the town, buy a piece of land in the countryside, and build a big house."

When Old Man Huo heard Old Man Zhou's persuasion, his heart gradually relaxed.

Nowadays, life is better at the foot of the mountain, with very few taxes, can eat enough, wear warm clothes, and live a comfortable life.

The most important thing is that his enemy was beaten to death by him and his family left. As long as Old Man Zhou was insured and re-applyed for household registration, he could become a good citizen.

Old Man Huo hesitated, "Isn't it really hurting my life?"
