Qi Yuantai and the others had already known about the grain donation from Lu Changchang's mouth, and they also doubted the true identity of the Ming army who entered the city, they didn't have no thoughts, but under Lu Changchang's persuasion and intimidation, they thought about it again and again and dispelled the idea of acting rashly.

Judging from their positions alone, Qi Yuantai, Wu Qingde, and Zhang Changquan are facing the Ming Dynasty in their hearts, after all, they have all been in the Ming Dynasty, but now the situation is not optimistic. When Li Dingguo sent troops to the east last year, the three of them were also ready to move and wanted the rebel division to respond, but before they could make up their minds, Li Dingguo was defeated and returned to Guangxi.

In this way, the heart is towards Nanming, and the three of them dare not have different hearts, who does not have a big family behind them, is it true to gamble with the lives of all the young and old to gamble that the Yongli Imperial Court can be prosperous, and can the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains restore the community?

Alas, then Li Dingguo can't counterattack Guangdong if he is so able to fight, this Ming Dynasty seems to be really hopeless, and the gas is exhausted!

After the Qing army occupied Luoding, Qi Yuantai and they were forced to remove their hair, but they did not appear as officials of the Qing Dynasty, and privately regarded themselves as the "remnants" of the Ming Dynasty, and adopted an attitude of non-resistance and non-cooperation towards the Manchu Dynasty.

However, in the words of Zhou Shixiang's previous life, these so-called "remnants" simply can't fight and don't want to be martyred, but they still think that they have national integrity and the backbone of scholars, so they set up a spiritual archway for themselves to comfort themselves, so as not to be accused by future generations that they are actually greedy for life and afraid of death, and sell their reputation

If the people who entered the city were really the Ming army, Qi Yuantai, who regarded himself as the "remnant" of the Ming Dynasty, was naturally willing to raise some grain and grass for it, but at the moment, no one could say whether it was a soldier or a bandit, so when Lu Changchang found them, the three of them discussed it privately and finally reached a unified opinion. That is, no matter whether it is the Ming army or bandits who enter the city, this blood will come out, but it can't be too much. Second, we have to prevent the Qing army from requisitioning grain after they come, so we have to leave a way back for ourselves. If you really give all the food to these bandits, how will you live this year?

There is some cloth in the warehouse of the Yang family, which is in the cloth business, but there is not much food, and I also thought about it in private, if those people really want them to bleed, then they will use the cloth to top, and the cloth will not be sold. Whether it's a soldier or a bandit, that bright knife can't be faked, it's not a decoration, but a real murderer! Besides, his Yang family is not as good as the Qi family and the Wu family, but there are really a hundred and ten people, and if he really provokes the bandits to kill them, then the disaster will be big!

Compared with the Lin family, who owns the most land, it is really inferior to the latter, because of years of war, most of his tenant farmers died in the military disaster, and most of the rest ran away, and now only a dozen or so households are still renting his family's land. If you want food, you can, one stone and two stones, and if you have more, there will be no discussion.

Lin Wanfu's timid personality is destined to be a wall grass, the city head changes the king's flag, and he waits for any king to come, and he is afraid that he will not serve him thoughtfully, so that these people with knives will not be killed and leave a way for his Lin family to survive.

At the beginning of the year, when the Ming army retreated, and when the Qing army came, in order to keep his family property, Lin Wanfu even gritted his teeth and even gave his daughter to Kong Guoliang. For this matter, the mother-in-law at home has made trouble with him, and the people who know outside have not laughed at him a little, Qi Yuantai and they have teased him a few times, but what can this be? After his daughter sent it over, didn't Kong Qian stop embarrassing his Lin family!

Can a daughter with a dowry be compared with the Lin family's family property? It is more important than the life of a family!

Buyers and sellers, not to talk about integrity, the Ming and Qing dynasties are easy, people always have to live, this business must always go on, as long as their own family is not in trouble, let it go to the outside things, what do you do with this heart? We can ask about the world's affairs that day!

Lin Wanfu calculated in his heart, his family can still take out some food, rather than being robbed by these bandits, it is better to give it directly, anyway, there are not many people in his own family. Besides, it is dangerous to have too much food, and after a fire last night, how many pairs of eyes were staring at his Lin family. Is it that if these bandits don't come to ask for it, the disaster victims won't come to rob it? In these days, in order to survive, people can't do anything! Open the history books, have there been fewer people robbing grain shops since ancient times! At this juncture, the more food, the more dangerous it is, how to say it, oh, yes, let the child carry the gold in the market, and it is strange not to be robbed!

After calculating, Lin Wanfu was the first to rush to show his loyalty, and said very earnestly: "If the adults have any needs, just give orders, the little people must share their worries for the adults!" ”

Seeing that Lin Wanfu was so knowledgeable, Song Xianggong was also happy in his heart, and he snorted at the moment, and then said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that the soldiers and horses in the city are short of some food, and Gaozhou can't help it for a while, so I want to ask you to help me for a while, so that the soldiers don't go hungry. Between the words, he pulled out Li Dingguo's banner again to scare people.

After Lin Wanfu heard this, he said casually: "Since there is a shortage of food in the army, we will wait for nature."

"But I don't know how much food the adults need us to raise?" Seeing that Lin Wanfu was about to sell each family, Qi Yuantai, who was complaining in his heart, hurriedly grabbed the conversation.

said it well, but was interrupted, but Lin Wanfu didn't dare to be angry, and he couldn't even see the slightest unhappy expression on his face, it seemed that in the face of Qi Yuantai and others, who had a reputation and had been a prominent official, his confidence as a businessman was very insufficient.

Song Xianggong was also unhappy in his heart, but he didn't have a seizure, but looked at Qi Yuantai and opened his mouth to say, "It's not much, one hundred and fifty stones." ”

"One hundred and fifty stones!"

Hearing this number, Qi Yuantai was taken aback, Wu Qingde was even more bitter, and Lin Wanfu was also taken aback: My good girl, so much!

One stone is one hundred and twenty catties, one hundred and fifty stones is a full eighteen thousand catties, so much grain is not without each family, but if you really want to give it according to this number, then most of the granaries of each family will be gone, and the days after yesterday?

The six families were all embarrassed there, Lu Changchang and a few small officials were silent, watching coldly, it was not them who were bleeding left and right, the more Song Xianggong wanted, the more they were happy, because then they could get more out of it, these bandits would not really go through the scales one by one, it was very easy to do some tricks.

Qi Yuantai and Wu Qingde made eye contact in private, and then said stiffly: "Lord Song, one hundred and fifty stones is too much, although our family has some surplus food, it is difficult to make up such a large sum, and I also ask Lord Song to be kind and reduce this amount." ”

Song Xianggong let out an "oh", still with a smile on his face, and asked kindly, "Then how much can you give?" ”

Qi Yuantai, Wu Qingde, and Zhang Changquan whispered a few words, gritted their teeth and reported the number: "Fifty stones!" ”

"Fifty stones?"

The smile on Song Xianggong's face disappeared instantly, and was replaced by an extremely gloomy face, "You don't want to worry about this official!" ”

"Dog's day, isn't it just to borrow some food from you, what are you doing so stingy, and I won't pay you back in the future!"

Ge Wu, who got Zhou Shixiang's eyes, jumped out and scolded in front of Qi Yuantai: "Lao Tzu will ask you, do you give this food!" ”

"Master Jun, I"

Qi Yuantai was frightened by Ge Wu's face, and he was about to speak, but he heard that something seemed to fall on the floor behind him, and then he heard Lin Wanfu and Zhang Changquan scream "Ahhh

What is it?

Qi Yuantai was so frightened by everyone's expressions that his back was cold, and his legs trembled and slowly turned around, but when he saw it, his eyes were black, and he couldn't stand up, and sat on the ground with a swaying ass.

What Qi Yuantai saw were more than a dozen human heads strung together with hemp rope, and the one with angry eyes on the top was not who Kong Guoliang was!

"Do you want to borrow this grain?"

Ge Liu lifted the hemp rope with a fierce face, and suddenly his head was lifted in the air
