Chapter 27 Why Doesn’t the Red Army Fight Landlords
"What do you call the old man?" Wang Jiuling asked the uncle.
"The old man's surname is Zhang, Mingzhuan" was trembling when he spoke, but there was nothing he could do about it. This son of his had some potential, and the other one was either gambling or smoking. Although I heard that he hated landlords so much that he fought with them wherever he went.
Beat the local tyrants
But he had no choice. His son was in someone else's hands, and even if he didn't go out, someone would still come to him sooner or later. Who said he was the largest family in the village? Earlier, he might have been able to save his son's life. As long as he was alive, then
On the day of a comeback, the green hills left behind will not be afraid of being without firewood** Although they have struggled a lot in the past few years, Mr. Zhang didn't think they could keep struggling for long, especially in places like Pingxiang with few mountains and ridges. Then he bit the bullet and came.
The valuable things at home have been hidden for a long time. Even if you search them, you won't be able to find them. These people are just here to get some food in the autumn wind.
Wang Jiuling looked harmless, "Mr. Zhang, your family must have been landlords for generations?"
Zhang Chuan didn't know why, "Replying to the chief, during the Qianlong period, the old lady and grandpa made some money mining in the Pingxiang coal mine, and later bought some family property. It took several generations of hard work to achieve today's achievements. Sir, I know your party."
We love the people like children and hate evil like enemies, but we are taught very strictly by our ancestors. Our ancestors have always taught us to unite the village, love each other, and serve the country." Zhang Chuanzhuan said with tears streaming down his face, as if he had been greatly wronged.
Wang Jiuling is so sorry. This guy can even say "unite the village, love each other and serve the country". It seems that he is an old man. And Zhang Chuan must have prepared a set of rhetoric when he said this. Unite the village. Not long ago
He also brought the villagers and people from neighboring villages to fight over the mountains and forests. Fortunately, his son was a battalion commander. The lawsuit went to the county magistrate, and the county magistrate did not dare to offend him, let alone serve the country. He sent his son to
If you become a soldier, you have to serve the country. Nowadays, there are internal and external troubles. Isn't being a soldier the best way to serve the country?
Wang Jiuling didn't care about what he said, "Mr. Zhang, our party does take the elimination of the exploiting class as its own duty, but just now I saw that you were very emotional and burst into tears. You should be telling the truth, so I will just believe you. But you also know
, If you want revolution and eliminate the exploiting class, you also need food and wages. We sacrificed our lives. If you are not an exploiting class, you should also show some gestures. Otherwise, I believe you and others will not believe you. You say so.
, old man?”
Zhang Chuan shrank slightly and said, "I wonder how much does it cost, sir?"
"Haha! Does this depend on your sincerity, old man? The more of us, the merrier! Haha!"
Zhang Chuan was in trouble as soon as he heard this. It would definitely not work if it was less. If it was more, it would cause physical pain. Moreover, the other party did not directly say how much he wanted. This was the most difficult thing to do. This way, he could not judge where his bottom line was. What if he gave too much?
However, if you give too little, you are afraid that they will turn against you and deny you. This guy is much younger than my own Xiaocheng, but his official position is one level higher. He should not be easy to deceive. Moreover, he has always been insidious and cunning, and it seems that there will be a lot of blood.
Got it
Zhang Chuan thought for a while and said, "Sir, otherwise, I will pay three thousand to the ocean and three thousand kilograms of rice, but please let your son go free, sir." If his house wasn't so grand, he wouldn't have paid so much for his son.
Wang Jiuling smiled slightly and shook his head
Zhang Cheng also expected this to happen, but he still pretended to be sad and begged: "Sir, although my family has a small income, I am about to go bankrupt! If it weren't for that unfilial son, I'm afraid that the old Zhang family would be destitute.
Finally, no matter what, I will never give out that much."
-------------------While Wang Jiuling and Zhang Chuanzi were bargaining, Li Huixian had already brought up Zhang Cheng and tortured them about how much money their family had.
Sitting, sitting, sitting, Li Huixian said the four words "sitting" at once, and he was very enthusiastic. Zhang Cheng couldn't help but relax when he saw how enthusiastic the other party was. Frankly speaking, he had just brought him up alone, and he thought he was being dragged away to be shot? Who told him not to be?
An officer of the national army, his official position is not small, he is also the young master of a landlord's family, and he is still a big landlord. He belongs to the exploiting class in **. I have long heard that all the landlords in **'s jurisdiction were killed. Male
Some women have to be paraded through the streets before they die, and some women have to be humiliated to death by those poor thugs. Who is not afraid!
"Thank you, sir!" Zhang Cheng said tremblingly. Now I am a fish and meat, and I am a swordsman, so it is better to be careful, Zhang Cheng thought to himself, but he still sat down.
"I wonder which military academy Commander Zhang graduated from?" Li Huixian was still smiling.
"Sir, I didn't go to a military academy, so I became the battalion commander with just a few connections."
"Haha! Captain Zhang, don't be nervous. Let's chat. I'm not going to kill you. Wouldn't it be easier to just drag you out and kill you? Isn't there a need to talk to you here?"
"Sir, that's right, but you still directly asked me why you wanted to see me! Otherwise, I would be very worried. The sir has so many things to do, so he wouldn't have the time to chat with me, a prisoner?"
Seeing that Zhang Cheng's point was broken, Li Huixian stopped talking to avoid being looked down upon, "Battle Commander Zhang said quickly, since you are on the road like this, I will tell you straight away, we intend to let you go, but brothers can't come in vain."
It costs a lot of money to feed hundreds of people in one trip! So I want to ask Battalion Commander Zhang for help."
Zhang Cheng thought to himself: "If nothing happens, you will chat with me. You think I'm that stupid rich second generation. I can't get into the position of battalion commander only because of my family's money. The most important thing is my ability. If I can even look at your little ninety-nine
If it's not broken, then why are you still alive? But he still said: "As long as the commander gives orders, the villain will do his best and will not hesitate to do anything."
Li Huixian said: "I don't have any instructions, just like that, we let you go, but you will get 30 small yellow croakers, 5,000 yuan in ocean, and 5,000 catties of grain. You can think about it, but I want to tell you, we will do it soon."
You're gone, so you don't have much time to think about it. Whether you can get out alive and be popular and drink spicy food all depends on this time."
"Sir, this is too much. We can afford the ocean and food, but we don't have small yellow croakers. Our family is just a small rural landowner. There are so many small yellow croakers!" Zhang Cheng said with a bitter face.
Li Huixian said: "It doesn't matter, there are no small yellow croakers, the same amount of gold ingots is fine, we can all accept it." Maybe gold ingots are still popular here, since they are all gold anyway, small yellow croakers and gold ingots are the same, hehe!
"This! This! Sir, can you have less? How about ten small yellow croakers? If there are more, you will kill me." He said and tilted his head.
"Haha! We don't want to kill you, but your brother Da Yan doesn't rule out that he has this idea. Maybe if you kill him, he can give you twice as many small yellow croakers! It seems that I have to discuss it with your brother.
"Li Huixian looked regretful.
Although Zhang Cheng knew that this was a scam, he couldn't help but not fall for it. Based on his brother's personality, if he really had the chance to monopolize the family property, it might be possible. What's more, even if the ** took away all the money, their family still had land.
There is also a shop, so you don’t have to worry about running out of money, just spend less. If the key package is gone, everything will be in vain. Who can spend the money if it is left there?
"Sir, sir, if you have something to say, it's a good place to talk!"
"Haha!" Li Huixian's hearty laughter came from the room. Wang Jiuling's side has been unable to defeat Zhang Chuan's side. Is it the ginger or the old that is hotter, or is Wang Jiuling just not good at doing this kind of thing? But Wang Jiuling has no time to think about it.
Well, I haven't been here for long, so I need to get out of here quickly.
When the other two landowners in the village learned that the Red Army was coming, the two families immediately hid in their houses and fearfully did not dare to come out. After waiting for a long time, they did not see the police raiding their homes. They couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Could it be that the rumors were false? **
Don't you understand that we are just going to fight the local tyrants against the landlords? But we can clearly see the Red Army patrolling outside. Just now, there was the sound of shooting outside. It must be the biggest landowner in the village who has suffered a lot! Will there be a turn next time?
What about yourself?
The two heads of the family discussed with their families whether it was a blessing or a curse. Rather than waiting to die here, they might as well go out to see the situation, so they both came out at the same time.
