The winter in the four northwest provinces of the Great Zhou Dynasty is always earlier than what the Central Plains brings. It is only November, and the outdoor water has begun to freeze.

As a result, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street. People returned home and gathered around the charcoal stove to pick up hot tea. After a busy year, they began to enjoy the most leisurely time of the year.

Even in such a deserted season, there are always many places in every city that are lively, such as gambling houses.

Qian Siye is a small leader in the Liangchengtanghui and runs a small casino.

The so-called church meeting is just a loose organization formed by spontaneous alliance between the lower-level men. They usually watch restaurants, gambling houses, and prostitutes in the city, and pick some traveling merchants who look easy to bully to collect protection fees. Occasionally, they will guard the houses and work as errands for the high-ranking clans. After a long time, they are considered to be some influence in Liangcheng.

Today, Mr. Qian Si met with an acquaintance in the small gambling house, Li Dazhuang, a student from the nursery school.

Li Dazhuang was from the countryside. Although he was a serious student, he had no fame and fortune. Locals, including Qian Siye, actually looked down on him.

Listen to the name of the rustic, Li Dazhuang, hum! Is it worthy of being a scholar?

Li Dazhuang, who had been in Liangcheng for three years, did not study hard here as his family wished. Instead, he was quickly confused by the prosperity of the city and forgot his original intention. He was in a gambling house and restaurant all day long. After spending all the money he brought from his home, he worked in a church meeting and became a shaman. He helped his brothers on the road handle some lawsuits on weekdays. If the younger brother in the branch accidentally killed someone, or if someone attacked a big family that should not be messed with, he would deal with it. After a while, he also gained good popularity in the church meeting.

When Li Dazhuang really turned over, it was at the end of last year that the court established a new Secretary for Political Affairs in Liangcheng. Li Dazhuang's original teacher, Yang Yuchang, the teaching department of the nursery school, recommended himself out of the mountain and served as the operation envoy of the Secretary for Political Affairs in Liangcheng. Li Dazhuang was moved and held this thigh. From then on, he rose from a disgrace to a famous man in the church, he became a celebrity outside the Secretary for Political Affairs. Qian Siye and others had to face this boy from the countryside.

A few days ago, Li Dazhuang hurried back to his hometown. He was quite excited when he left, saying that he wanted to bet a big shot. On the eve of his departure, he invited Mr. Qian Si’s wife to drink a drink. With the help of alcohol, Mr. Qian also patted his chest and said that there would be something useful in the future. He just spoke. He thought it was just a polite word, but who thought that Li Dazhuang would come to him in just a few days later.

Originally, the Fourth Master Qian thought it was a big deal, but later Li Dazhuang explained the purpose of the trip carefully and realized that it was just a way to go to the countryside to bully a few dealers. Then he felt relieved and talked about the details and prices of the specific plan.

After the main talks, Mr. Qian, as usual, kept Li Dazhuang for drinking. Li Dazhuang, who was always here, refused today. He hurriedly left the gambling house. It seemed that he was going out of the city.

"Must legs are mud legs. So what if you know a few birds? You are so panicked when dealing with several farmers!" Qian Si Master laughed at Li Dazhuang's back as he walked away, and turned around and waved to the younger brother beside him, "Let's go, he doesn't know what he sees, let's drink!"

Everyone applauded and surrounded Mr. Qian Si and went into the house.

A few days later, outside the originally peaceful village, a group of ferocious people holding sticks came. They shouted, knocked on the plaque at the entrance of the village and shouted loudly.

The people in the village didn't know what was going on, and they ran out of the house in panic and gathered together. Seeing the Qingpi Gate at the entrance of the village, these people who had been farming for the rest of their lives were a little afraid and dared not come forward. Only the village chief and Li Dazhuang looked at each other tacitly.

The former is old god, while the latter has a complicated expression.

"Who is in charge of your village?" Qian Si Master held a handful of melon seeds in his hand and smiled very ferociously.

The village chief walked out of the crowd tremblingly and said, "I'm right, I wonder what the hell are doing when you come to this village?"

Mr. Qian did not answer, but slapped the village chief hard, slapped the village chief like a top, and fell to the ground in a circle!

The villagers were in an uproar, but none of them dared to come forward to support them. The village chief himself was also confused. Compared to the pain on his face, he was even more confused that there was no such thing in the original design! Li Dazhuang, this kid!

It’s okay, the harder it is now, the more capital you will be when you complain in the future! The village chief gritted his teeth and thought in his heart that just a slap in the face, at least he would have to exchange for a shop in a good location in Liangcheng!

The village chief fell to the ground and immediately howled: "Why did this hero hit someone for no reason? I just told you what I did!"

Mr. Qian spit out the melon seed shell and said with a grin, "Just hit you, a long-lasting person, what can you do? I ask you, do you recognize an agricultural official named Li Minghao?"

The meat show is coming! The village chief smiled in his heart, his face didn't seem to hurt so much, but he still looked confused and nodded vigorously, "Recognize it! I came to the village a few days ago and owed each household in our village a silver fee of land opening. Later, it was the passing students who helped him make up for it. Are you his friends?"

The onlookers were already feeling a pity for the private intercepting the imperial officials. At this moment, when they saw a few big men, their faces turned pale and they were silent.

"Just know each other," Mr. Qian sneered and said, "Let me ask you, have you bought a batch of grains before?"

Although the village chief did not know that Qingpi agreed with this, he could only cooperate and said: "There is a batch, which was raised by everyone in the village, and I went out to buy it together. It is the lifeblood of farming in the village next year!"

Mr. Qian suddenly kicked up and kicked the village chief in the stomach, and cursed and said, "Damn it! Since you have enough money to raise funds, why did you take credit on Master Li's side and say that you should pay the land to advance with the land opening fee, and each household will be one cent for each household? When the young master comes to pay the land opening fee, you pretend that it is not the case, and you incite these troublemakers to detain the imperial officials. You are greedy enough, and say! Where did you hide the money for buying seeds? Spit it out for me!"

The villagers were stunned, wondering what was going on. The scoundrel said that the village chief embezzled the money from everyone to raise funds to buy grain, and then used the imperial court fund to pay the land payment for each household to advance. So the money distributed to everyone this year is only one less than in previous years?

The village chief felt something was wrong in his heart, and then cried loudly: "Heroic, you are wronged, you have to be accused of me, and you need to make a statement!"

"Certificate?" Qian Siye smiled and said, "Then I will show you the certificate! Let's go to the abandoned house at the west entrance of the village."

This is not pretending, the village chief's face turned pale in an instant.
