Chapter 236 Let the Enemy Pay for Me (Third)

Although the Zhang family had saved some silver since last year, the sum of all of them was not as much as twenty taels.And the money is basically broken silver, how can it have the impact of such an ingot in front of it.

Even so, Zhang Lishi will not betray Su Yueling for this money.

That's right, she had already guessed that the master behind this woman must be targeting Yue Ling.Once this road is repaired, everyone will definitely say good things about Yue Ling.If there is a diarrhea accident, I don't know how bad someone will say, and maybe it will cause a lawsuit.

If she betrayed Yue Ling just for the money, she would lose her conscience.It is thanks to Yueling that Lushan Village can have a good life now.The cotton cloth they wove was also purchased with money from the Yuan family.

Zhang Lishi made up his mind to tell Yue Ling about this, and help her find out who was behind the scenes.

She intentionally showed a salivating and greedy expression, "Do you really want to give this twenty taels to me?"

Zhou Lie's family took her look into their eyes, and became more and more contemptuous, "Of course, if you don't believe me, I can give you five taels of silver first, and I will give you the remaining fifteen taels of silver after the matter is completed."

Zhou Lie's family handed her a pack of crotons.

Mrs. Zhang Li took it, "How can I contact you after the matter is completed?"

Zhou Lie's family thought about it, and told her where she stayed.

Zhang Lishi kept it in his heart.

Zhou Lie's family took out five taels of silver, Zhang Li couldn't wait to put it away, and even bit it with his teeth - it was sterling silver!

Seeing that she had collected the money, Zhou Lie's family made up their minds and decided to pursue it while it was still hot, "I heard that the Lord of Xiang bought a lot of glutinous rice for road construction?"

"Yes, I've seen it, and it's indeed glutinous rice." Mrs. Zhang wanted to see what else this man wanted to do.

Zhou Lie's family said: "I don't believe that glutinous rice can build roads. Isn't it the same to use glutinous rice and rice? It's just that using glutinous rice sounds more novel."

"I have a relative who opened a grain shop. A lot of moldy old rice in his place is also a waste. I think it's better for us to work together to remove these glutinous rice and replace them with old rice. The money we get at that time , we share a share."

"If it goes well, let's say you can get more than five hundred taels of share. With this money, do you still need to do hard work for others? Take it to buy land, and the annual farm income is more than fifty taels. "

"Really?" Zhang Li's voice broke.

Zhou Lie's family smiled, "What did I lie to you for?"

If this matter goes well, the wife will definitely not ask her for the money.The reselling money will be in her pocket at any time.Zhou Lie's family didn't worry that Mrs. Zhang would identify her in the future. After this matter was over, she went back to the state capital and was always by his wife's side. A commoner like Mrs. Zhang could see her at will.

It was also for this reason that she personally came forward to cooperate with Mrs. Zhang and Li. If another person was hired to do the job, one more person would be more risky.When she came back this time, besides herself, she only brought her two sons with her.

Zhang Lishi said: "I'll check everyone's opinions in the past few days, and then choose the manpower."

Zhou Lie's family breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, I'll wait for your good news."

Zhang Lishi looked at her leaving figure, her flattering smile disappeared, and she spat at Zhou Lie's family.

As soon as she turned her head, Mrs. Zhang went home and told Su Yueling about it that day.

"I think that person is wearing silk. The person behind her must be of high status." The servants of the rich families in the city can't afford silk and satin.

"And the other party's hands are very white without any calluses. It can be seen that although she is a servant, she has never done any work at all."

Zhang Lishi also took out the five taels of silver and Croton that he had collected.

Yuan Baoshu was very angry. My sister-in-law was clearly doing something good, so why would someone not want her to be a good person, and insisted on using such indecent means.The opponent's behavior style is quite unscrupulous. You must know that Croton, if it is not done well, may directly pull people to collapse, and may even kill people.In order to harm my sister-in-law, I didn't even care about human life.

Su Yueling said: "Seeing that the other party has offered to send you money, you can accept the money."

"It's really stingy. The deposit is only five taels to buy you. Otherwise, you can get more money."

Just five taels of silver, who is this looking down upon?

She pondered for a while, and said, "Wait until each village selects ten villagers who are the most diligent in road construction, and then let them take action with you."

"How much can be cheated from the opponent's hands."

Think of it as the other party helping to distribute the bonus.

"After the glutinous rice is moved, I will catch the turtle in the urn and sue her for theft."

Who is behind the other party? When they enter the prison, they will be interrogated by their own servants.

Zhang Li's eyebrows are wide open, she likes this!Not only can she help Su Yueling, but she can also make a fortune. She doesn't dislike such good things a few times.

After Mrs. Zhang and Li left, Su Yueling opened the envelope from the state capital.

The letter stated that Chen Youfei and his lover were caught in a private wedding ceremony.

Then Lao Song probably hired someone to help polish it, the whole scene was written so vividly that it made people feel like they were actually there.Su Yueling thought about finding someone to write a related script, let the theater troupe rehearse, and then go to the nearby villages to perform patrols.

Knowing that the entire state government basically knew about this, Su Yueling felt at ease.

Under such circumstances, if there are still people who take the initiative to jump into the fire pit, Su Yueling can only respect the blessing.

……

Mrs. Zhang Li ran to tell the village chiefs of Lushan Village and Rizhuang Village about Zhou Lie's family.

The two village chiefs were very angry and expressed that they would cooperate with Zhang Li's actions, not only to find out the villain behind it, but also to make the other party pay the price and ruin their reputation.

Based on everyone's performance this month, the two village chiefs selected the most diligent group, and each village selected ten.

After these villagers heard the inside story, they expressed that they would act well.

But before that, they couldn't help asking repeatedly.

"Your Majesty really knows about this, right? She asked us to do this, right?"

Mrs. Zhang Li knew what they were thinking, nodded, and said, "Yes! She ordered us to do this, saying that we have worked hard during this time, and she wants to give us a bonus."

The villagers were so moved that they were about to cry. They had enough food, money, and a good reputation every day. Every day when they built roads, they felt that they had endless energy.Under such circumstances, Mr. Xiang actually wanted to give them extra money. For such a good person, there are still people who want to frame her.So everyone followed the same enemy and said that they must help find the black hand.

Mrs. Zhang Li told them, "Don't talk about it when the time comes."

Mrs. Zhang Li quickly led the twenty people to Zhou Lie's family.

When Zhou Lie's family saw them, they were taken aback by the battle, "Why are there so many people?"

Zhang Lishi said: "Because the only chance to move glutinous rice is tomorrow night, and it will be my nephew's turn to guard the warehouse tomorrow night, so we have to move everything in one night."

Zhou Lie's family also understands this truth, but when she looks at so many people, she is afraid that they will leak their words, and she is even more worried that there are people here who do not have the same heart as her.

Zhang Lishi said: "If you feel uneasy, why don't we share twenty taels of silver each, and then we will all be on the same boat, can we still betray you?"

"When the time comes to buy glutinous rice, you can deduct twenty taels per person from it."

Zhou Lie's family thinks this makes sense.It's just that there are so many people, if there are twenty people, and each of them gets twenty taels, that's four hundred taels.She only brought five hundred taels when she came out this time, which made her feel so distressed.

She asked, "How much glutinous rice did Mr. Wei Guoxiang buy?"

Zhang Lishi said: "Don't worry, I have read the account book, and the glutinous rice is worth more than five thousand taels."

Five thousand taels...

The heart of Zhou Lie's family was moved, "Okay."

She quickly exchanged the five hundred taels of silver bills for silver and distributed them one by one.

After the twenty people were divided, Zhang Li stretched out his hand, "Where are my twenty taels?"

The corners of Zhou Liejia's mouth twitched, he gritted his teeth, and reluctantly gave Zhang Lishi another twenty taels.

Zhang Li and other villagers were very excited.I didn't expect the money to come so easily.But Yue Ling said, how much they can get is their ability, and if it falls into their pockets, it is their money.

Thank you Yueling for giving them bonuses!They must work hard to live up to Yueling's trust in them.

 The villagers were moved: the township lord treats us well, even if he is an ox or a horse, he can't repay him.

  Zhou Lie's family who actually gave out the money:? ? ?
