As for Huo Qingyun and his Snow Leopard team members, they did not appear in the crowd, but Lin Xu knew that Huo Qingyun and the others must have been hiding in a hidden place nearby, and the crossbows in their hands were already strung. As long as he gave a
Signal, these bandits will be shot to death by random arrows immediately!
However, these bandits were not aware of the approaching danger at all, and all of them held their heads high like roosters!
That arrogance is beyond words!
In fact, it’s no wonder they are so arrogant. No matter which village they go to collect New Year’s grain in these years, the villagers are all trembling with fear, and no one even dares to look at them!
They kill people to establish their power, and no one dares to resist!
Over time, you get used to it!
"Second shopkeeper!"
Lin Xu walked up to them, cupped his hands and smiled slightly.
"Boy, you have a lot of tricks up your sleeve!"
The second shopkeeper was riding on a horse, pointing his whip at Lin Xu, and said this when he came up!
"I wonder what the second shopkeeper said?"
Lin Xu's expression remained calm.
"Young master, you are here trying to drag me down! You are a bullshit scholar who can't even pass the exam for a bad scholar. What are you showing off to?"
The second shopkeeper is crazy on his own, and the more people there are, the more energetic he becomes!
Seeing that the second shopkeeper was so arrogant and even yelled at Lin Xu, whom they respected so much, the people in the village were furious, especially Sun Chong, who only held the handle of the knife in his right hand and had blue veins popping out on his forehead. He couldn't help but want to take action.
!
Lin Xu stopped him with his eyes, still with a warm smile on his face: "Excuse me, the second shopkeeper came down the mountain this time. What's the matter?"
"Pooh!"
The second shopkeeper spat on the ground in a very unqualified manner, and then cursed and said: "Isn't this nonsense! Why should I come to your place if there is nothing to do? I have nothing to do? Boy, please listen carefully to me, from now on
Starting from this month, your monthly monthly allowance will be increased to two hundred taels of silver! You are still short of one hundred taels this month, and you have to make up for it immediately!"
The onlookers had no idea that the village had to pay Xiaoyangshan monthly fees. After hearing this, they immediately exploded!
"Don't they come to collect two crops every year? Why do they still need to collect regular money?"
"Two hundred taels of silver per month? This is too shady!"
"Who says it isn't?"
"Listen to what he means, Xiaoxu has been paying the customs fee for a long time!"
"But Xiaoxu never told us!"
"Not only did Xiaoxu not tell us, but he also took care of our food and paid us wages. He was really good to us!"
"One hundred taels per month is enough, but they want another two hundred taels. It's really unsatisfactory!"
Listening to the discussion of the people around him, the second shopkeeper was so angry that he pulled out his machete with a bang and shouted: "Shut up! If I hear anyone yelling again, I will chop him with one knife."
!”
The deterrent effect of bandits in the hearts of villagers has been formed over many years and cannot be changed overnight!
Therefore, when they were discussing, they just said that the bandits were too greedy, but no one dared to resist at all.
The second shopkeeper pulled out his machete and shouted so loudly that no one dared to say a word.
"Hey! Old man, did you just say you didn't want to increase the per patient fee?!"
The second shopkeeper pointed a knife at an old man with gray hair and yelled at him!
