More than 20 people in the entire village visited.
Li Chengqian's heart felt even heavier.
It seems that in the entire Xiaohe Village, Wang Tieshi's family is living a good life.
"Why are you all so poor?"
When he reached the entrance of the village, Li Chengqian finally couldn't hold back and asked.
"..."
Wang Tieshi was silent for a while, but thinking that the identity of the young man in front of him was not simple, he slowly replied.
"This gentleman doesn't know that the life of the little people and others has been very good in the past two years. If it were a few years ago, the little people would have no food to eat in winter.
There are no wild vegetables on the mountain, so many people can only eat tree roots and boil tree bark to satisfy their hunger.
Every year, countless people starve to death.
Now, my village can still make some money through the cement road next to it.
In addition, the imperial court has food, so the taxes on us are not that heavy.
The common people can take a breath, then they can eat enough, and people will not freeze to death in winter.
…”
Following Wang Tieshi's words, Li Chengqian's eyes gradually widened.
This was the first time he had heard of these things.
"Then you are so pitiful!"
Next to Xue Rengui, Li Chenglu couldn't help but look at Wang Tieshi with sympathy on his face.
"Thank you so much for your concern. I am very satisfied to be able to live like this now!"
Wang Tieshi slightly arched his hands with a dull look on his face.
"Don't worry, your days will definitely get better and better in the future!"
Li Chengqian said solemnly.
"Thank you sir!"
Wang Tieshi surrendered again.
"Thank you, strong man, for showing me the situation in Xiaohe Village. This is a little reward from us. Please don't dislike it, strong man!"
With that said, Li Chengqian motioned to Cheng Chusi to take out a handful of copper coins from his body and handed them to Wang Tieshi.
Seeing this, Wang Tieshi's expression changed slightly and he waved his hands repeatedly, "It's just a villain who takes the noble man to understand the situation in the village. Please don't humiliate the villain like this!"
"You are so pretentious. I'm insulting you by giving you money? You took me door to door to check and introduce me. Is it because of the physical effort and knowledge you put in?"
Cheng Chusi's eyes suddenly became as big as copper bells, he took Wang Tieshi's hand and put the money in Wang Tieshi's hand.
"Besides, you have been under my command for a period of time and are considered my soldiers. If you don't accept my reward, wouldn't you be looking down on me?"
Hearing this, Wang Tieshi was startled and took it subconsciously.
Seeing this, Cheng Chusi smiled with satisfaction, and then walked out of the village with Li Chengqian and others.
At the entrance of the village, looking at the large crowd of people outside the village, Wang Tieshi seemed to remember something, and his eyes gradually widened with disbelief on his face!
"How do you feel?"
Li Xuan, who was lying on a large clean bluestone and basking in the sun, saw Li Chengqian and others coming back and asked with a smile.
"Third Uncle, the people of our Tang Dynasty are extremely poor!"
Li Chengqian said with a sad look on his face.
"anything else?"
Li Xuan continued to ask.
Li Chengqian thought for a moment and said again: "The people are kind and honest."
"fart!"
Li Xuan turned over and lay on his side, and used one arm to support himself. Under Li Chengqian's somewhat surprised look, he continued: "This is because you have a large number of people, and you are obviously a group of powerful people.
If only you and Ren Gui walked in, if nothing else, considering the warm and gorgeous clothes you are wearing, some old farmers who can't stand the cold would be able to fuck you and take off your clothes!"
"Master, how could they do such a thing?"
Li Chengqian looked unbelieving.
"Ask Ren Gui yourself!"
Li Xuan didn't want to say more, so he lay down again, squinting and basking in the sun.
After eating at noon, it is easy to feel sleepy.
Coupled with the fact that the sun is so warm, it makes me feel comfortable and want to take a good squint.
"Dalang, among all the people, there are people who are kind-hearted and honest, and there are also treacherous people."
Being stared at by Li Chengqian and the three great scholars on the side, Xue Rengui could only reply honestly.
"Moreover, Master's words have another meaning. Many times, all good and evil depend on your strength. As long as you are strong enough, others cannot defeat you, even if you are holding baskets of fragrant steamed buns and walking in front of those who are almost hungry.
Even when the dead victims were in front of them, they did not dare to rob them.
And if you are alone and seem powerless, but you are wearing gorgeous clothes and walking in the countryside, some evil people will covet you and will definitely try their best to make you unable to resist and take it away.
All valuable items on your person."
"They will too?"
Li Chengqian thought for a while, then turned to look at the village he had just come out of.
"Da Lang, if you go in alone, there are two people, even if they won't attack you in the village, they will definitely follow you out!"
Xue Rengui said.
"Why is this so?"
Li Chengqian said helplessly.
"Because they are poor!"
Xue Rengui sighed softly, "When a common people is so poor that they cannot have a meal or a piece of clothing for three days, even if they have good intentions in their hearts, they will be forced to do some evil things!"
"But how can we make these poor people rich?"
After being silent for a long time, Li Chengqian said helplessly.
“See more, think more!”
Li Xuanyouyou said.
Then, he climbed up from the big bluestone and walked to the carriage.
"It's almost time to rest. Let's pack up and start setting off. Maybe we can reach the next county before dark!"
"Yes, Third Uncle!"
"Yes, boss..."
After a while of busy work, everyone set off again.
Li Xuan, on the other hand, was lying in the carriage covered with cotton pads, looking drowsy.
…
Two days later, a group of people came to Qingshui County below Longzhou.
"Da Lang, Da Lang, there is a fight between two villages ahead!"
After everyone had lunch and everyone was lying on the ground basking in the sun, one or two bodyguards hurried over.
"Two villages started fighting?"
Hearing this, Li Chengqian, Li Chenglu, and Li Xiaogong all jumped up and looked at the two guards with curious faces.
"what happened?"
"Why did two villages start fighting?"
"Going back to Dalang, several gentlemen and gentlemen were on guard when they heard the noise in the distance and looked around with clairvoyance. However, they discovered that there were two groups of farmers above the river, holding various farm tools.
Fighting by the river!"
The guard replied quickly.
"How many people are fighting?"
Hearing this, Li Xuan felt that something was wrong, so he asked directly.
"Going back to the proprietor, the two groups of farmers have about the same number of people, adding up to about a hundred people!"
Guard Road.
"Come here, two hundred people come out and follow me up to break up the fight!"
Li Xuan shouted directly.
If there is a fight between two villages, especially in this era, they will definitely kill each other directly. That is Li Xuan who does not intend to meddle in other people's business. When encountering such a situation, he cannot turn a blind eye!
