When the people in the village heard the news that there was going to be a war, they all had no intention of doing anything.

This time, in addition to King Shuqing, there were four other people in the village community who received the order to go to Peiguo, all of whom were veterans who had fought in the Battle of Shangqiu or later became a captain or Sima Chang in the army.

Seeing this, King Shuqing simply asked everyone to stop, sat down by the pool soaked in paper, and talked about his going to Peiguo this time.

There are a total of 120 households in the village, of which 20 are now in the army, 20 are farmers who have returned, and 18 are going to serve and train in the volunteer division this winter.

There are four people who will go to Peiguo together tomorrow.

Since it is said that there will be a war, those who may return to work in agriculture will have to be rebuilt, and those who will serve and train this winter may also have to participate in transportation and logistics.

This was not a small battle like the restoration of Teng in the spring, there was no general mobilization at all in that battle, and the people in Peixian basically did not feel any changes.

But now, judging from the rumors of the riders, I am afraid that this battle will last for a year, and the young labor force of the village community will basically be drained, so it has to be discussed.

King Shuqing is not only the representative of the Mo people stationed in the village community, but also the representative of the people's will elected by the village community, these two identities are integrated, but the responsible things cannot be integrated.

Most of the people in the village community gathered around the pool, and no one was silent first, and those who had served in the righteous division who had returned looked at King Shuqing and waited for him to speak.

King Shuqing smacked for a long time, and looked at the people in the village community: "I think this battle is definitely going to start." I think I have to fight, after all, I say that life is good now, but I can't forget Ben. The ink man said that hard work creates wealth, but we used to work endlessly, but we never lived such a life...... Now except for us, the world is not the same? The princes and nobles don't have to do anything, they live well, we don't want to go back to the way we used to be. ”

"That...... How do you sing it? Kankan is sandal, the river is dry, and the river is clear and rippling. If you don't have crops, you won't be able to harvest 300 grains? Right? ”

One hundred and ten people said: "I can't forget this, since others don't recognize our rules here, then we have to fight." King Qing, it's nothing to fight, in the past, when the Mo family didn't come, it was good to serve in the army, and you had to do labor...... It's just ......"

A few people wanted to speak and stopped, and King Shu smiled and said, "Just say anything." Since I am a writer who is interested in benefiting the world, am I also the representative of the village community elected by you. ”

One person looked at the rest of the people and was silent, so he had to stand up and say: "In this battle, most of the light and strong will be taken away......"

King Shuqing hurriedly said, "Hasn't this truth been said a long time ago? Fighting a war now is to not fight later. If the princes and nobles of the world are willing to let us live such a life, why fight? ”

The man hurriedly waved his hand and said, "That's not what I meant. Everyone understands this. I mean, if you take away more than half of your strength at once, you won't be able to plant enough land. I mean, if you lack Peiguo, do you mean that the village can exempt some taxes next year? This tax is levied according to the land, and I don't say anything, but it is estimated that the village community will not be able to plant so much land next year. ”

He is also right, there are 120 households in the village community, and if there is really a fight, there must be 50 or 60 people who will be transferred to serve in the army, as well as the people who accompany the army, and so on, which means that most of the light and strong labor force in the village community has been emptied.

On the basis of land, half of the light and strong labor is requisitioned, and a lot of arable land is simply not busy, especially some crops that are quite labor-intensive.

A few young people in the village community stood up and said to the middle-aged man with a little mockery: "In the past, when the princes and nobles were here, they were levied for military service, but I didn't see you bargaining like this. Who dares? Now I dare to ......"

There is a bit of sarcasm in this discourse, young people think less, listen more, and often listen to some ink propaganda, so they can't help but think simpler.

The middle-aged man's face was a little unbearable, knowing that what he said was right, in the past, how could the common people have the right to speak? The noble lords will do whatever you want, in the spring to the public field, in the summer to weed, in the autumn to renovate the house, in the winter to perform martial arts...... No one dared to say anything, at most they sang a few lines of "Fellan Tan" and "July" and the like, complaining.

King Shuqing looked at the young people and said with a smile: "That's not what I said. The Mohist family is for the benefit of the world, which has big and small benefits, long and short benefits. But after all, it is for the benefit of all the people in the world, we are all the people of the world, and what we want, we have to say it, which is normal. ”

When the middle-aged man heard King Shuqing say this, the color on his face finally recovered, and he said, "Yes, that's what I mean." It's like my family, two people are serving, and the family's land has to be planted less than 20 acres to get busy, but the tax is still collected according to the number of acres on the previous deed......"

He just said this, trying to fight for it, after all, when the Mo family was active in the village community, when they asked each village community to select representatives for public opinion, they said that they could put forward their own ideas.

Although the differences between long-term profits, short-term profits, big profits, and small profits need to be answered by the people of the Xuanyi Department of the Mohist Family, they do not prevent everyone from putting forward any ideas before answering.

King Shuqing is a writer of ink, and he thought of what he said before returning home: "You are a writer and can spread the idea of an inker, but you can't require those who are not inkers to have a heart for the benefit of the world." ”

He is also the public opinion representative elected by the village community, and he still has to listen to this, and it is not his responsibility to do it or not. Besides, even if you want to manage it and be reasonable, you have to wait until you go to Pei Guo for a meeting to understand where this truth is, and then you can tell it to everyone.

So he took out a small notebook from his arms, took out a charcoal stick, wrote a few words, and said, "Then I will mention this matter." What else is not? Everyone pondered and pondered, and when I went to Peiguo, I also said it together. ”

When asked like this, everyone quieted down and said, "There is nothing else." There is also a small thing, that is, we heard that the iron pot can produce a lot every day, but it is not sold in the county and township, and most of it is transported by merchants along the river...... You go and ask, when can we buy it? Money is not an issue......"

Many people in the village community have the confidence to say that money is not a problem, and King Shuqing nodded and said, "Cheng, then I will also ask and mention this matter." If everything else is okay, let's disperse today. ”

"If you return it, you should go back and prepare, so let's prepare. I guess that all the villages will agree to fight this battle. ”

"Military uniforms and food are rationed by the righteous teachers. But I also prepared some lard and wheat bread and other food, and brought some money with me, and the battle was only over in a day or two, and I was still in the camp in peacetime......"

He has a lot of experience, and he knows that the main thing about fighting is training and walking, and it only takes a day or two to really fight to the death to determine the winner or loser.

And they all answered, and said something else, and dispersed.

When the king returned home, he teased the children for a while, and his wife and mother made dinner, and went to sell some wine, and the family ate at the table without separating.

The wife didn't speak, the old father took a sip of wine, and the atmosphere at the table was a little less joyful than usual, and more sad.

King Shuqing thought about his family's affairs, so he said: "The younger brother is studying in Peiguo, and I am going to go on an expedition again, and my brother may also have to carry food with the army." The family's land will really be planted less next year. ”

"The more than 30 acres of land near the river, I don't think it will be flooded. One can leave the fields and fertile land, and the other can not be planted and will be released with water when I come back, and there is no grass. ”

"The foal told his brother to let it go and let it go often, and the calf should let it do the work, and not be too spoiled. How can there be a cow or horse that is born to live? It's all practiced since childhood......"

After a few words, the old father nodded and said, "I know, if you don't say that I am going to do this, I am going to do this." Eh, you go to the village every two months to study and have meetings, and you know a lot of things. You see, how long will it take to fight a war with the Yue Kingdom? Can't always ...... Keep fighting like this, right? ”

King Shuqing shook his head and said, "How do I know." It's just that they all fought, so they don't have to fight in the future, the giant and the seven realizations know it in their hearts, I know this truth, can they still not know? ”

The old father snorted and said, "That's right." I haven't seen you giants, but that one came to our house before digging the canal a few years ago, and I think those people in your Mo family are all sages, so you should understand this reason. ”

"However, if you really want to fight, then fight. Isn't your Mo family attacking, I also understand that this unrighteous country has to fight him. ”

"You say, as you said in "Promised Land", the world is stable, and there are few expeditions in the world, when will it come?"

King Shuqing listened to his father's "your Mo family", and couldn't help but want to laugh in his heart, held his mouth for a long time, and said: "The days on "Promised Land", then the world must agree with the rules of our Mo family. Last year, when I went to the township to study, I said that this Tangwu Revolution was ...... What do you mean? Revolution is the coercion of one part of the people to accept the will of the other part. ”

"That is to say, if you look at our rules, the princes and nobles will definitely not be happy to accept them. They won't accept it, so they have to find a way to get them to accept it......"

When he was about to talk, the old father waved his hand and said, "Okay, you don't have to tell me this, I understand." Just like in the past, if we were arrested and punished for fleeing, isn't this what the princes and nobles forced us to accept? Let me ask you, you said that the world is so big, and Peixian is so small, can you really make everyone in the world accept our rules? ”

King Shuqing said solemnly: "Yes, why can't you?" If it was before, who would have believed that I could push the spear tip to within five feet of the King of Chu? ”

Speaking of his proudest heroic deeds, the atmosphere at the dinner table finally came alive, but his wife kept her head stuffy, occasionally smiling but soon showing a sad look.

In the evening, the king went to the stables for a turn, habitually added fodder, and when he came back, his wife had already laid the burden of tomorrow's departure.

Coaxed the child to sleep, and the wife finally showed a reluctant look, and said bitterly: "When will you come back?" ”
