Chapter 89
Xue Andong Xuehen and others also raised their bows and arrows to give a serious warning.

"Everyone has no grievances in the past and no hatred in the present, and we don't want to kill people, but if you dare to threaten our lives, we will not be soft-hearted."

Seeing forty or fifty shooters riding on the wall, shopkeeper Qian didn't dare to act rashly for a while, so he remained in a stalemate again.

At this moment, two loud 'booms' were heard suddenly, and then two puffs of smoke rose into the sky from the east and west.

Xue Andong stood tall and looked far, and immediately exclaimed.

"Not good, the stone wall was smashed by them, send someone over quickly."

After speaking, he quickly rushed over there, and Wang Yonggui also hurriedly mobilized his men to stop him.For a time, the village fell into chaos.

Seeing that the opportunity came, Shopkeeper Qian winked at several right-hand assistants at the side, and those bodyguards used their kung fu one after another, leaped onto the wall, and fought with Xuehen and the others.

Seeing that the crisis on the wall was resolved, the burly men lifted up the giant log and began to knock on the door.

bang~ bang~ bang~~
After bumping into it a few times, the gate collapsed, and shopkeeper Qian led the crowd to rush in.

But not far after rushing in, two women fell from the sky and smashed into their team, several men were knocked down immediately, but the two women were safe and sound.

Just as Shopkeeper Qian was about to start scolding, the old woman on the ground got up with a face ashamed.

After seeing the old woman's face, shopkeeper Qian was so frightened that he fell to his knees.

"Mom, why are you here?"

"Why did I come here? What do you think I want to come?" The old woman said as she grabbed Manager Qian's ear and raised her hand to slap her face. Do you harm your parents, wife and children? You goddamned rebellious son!,

Shopkeeper Qian hadn't recovered from being slapped, another woman got up and kicked him hard.

"Qian Fulai, instead of being a good businessman, you started a robbery business. If this involves the lives of our mother and son, ten older brothers from my natal family will definitely skin your skin and cramps you."

Shopkeeper Qian is notoriously afraid of his mother and his wife.

The old mother and wife beat and kicked him so hard that his head sank into his crotch and he lost all momentum.

After a long while, he muttered: "There are so many people who want to eat and drink, I can't help it."

"Hey, according to what you said, so many people rely on you to support them, why don't you grab the top of the mountain and become the king of the mountain?" His old mother slapped him again.

"Mom, how dare I!" Shopkeeper Qian wiped the nosebleed from the beating, like a disobedient child beaten by his mother.

Before the nosebleed stopped, the mother-in-law kicked him again and again.

"If you don't dare, let everyone withdraw quickly, lest people from the court come and arrest us as robbers."

If you want to say how the shopkeeper Qian's old mother and wife are so enlightened, Wu Chongwen is better at brainwashing.

On the way back to the village, Wu Chongwen gave them propaganda all the way, telling them that the garrison sent by the imperial court had arrived in Qingyang County and would come here soon. If the news of their robbery spread, the imperial court would regard them as robbers The bandits were arrested and executed immediately, scaring them out of their wits.

They were originally well-to-do merchants, honest businessmen, if Gu County Magistrate hadn't escaped in advance, no one was maintaining order and the chaos became a mess, how could they act recklessly to this extent? They are almost becoming robbers!
Now that everyone knew the seriousness, they ran into the team one after another, beat and scolded their own men, dragged them outside the village, and disintegrated the robbery team of one or two people in the blink of an eye.

Soon, the group retreated outside the village.

After being severely reprimanded by his mother and wife, Shopkeeper Qian honestly apologized to Wang Yonggui and the others.

"We don't need an apology." Wang Yonggui said calmly, holding a cigarette stick in his mouth, "But you destroyed our gate and stone wall, how do you settle this?"

"We lose money."

"You don't need to lose money, you just send someone to fix it."

"Definitely, we will fix it for you."

After talking about this question, Shopkeeper Qian learned from his old mother and wife that all their belongings had been robbed. He suddenly became short by three points, and looked at Wang Yonggui with a smile on his face.

"Brother Wang, it's wrong for us to want to rob you, but I'm afraid it's not right for you to rob us now. Please return our supplies to us."

"This, Mr. Wu, Xue girl, you decide." Wang Yonggui looked at Xiao Ningxue and Wu Chongwen who had been watching the fun.

They robbed things, so it's better for them to decide how to deal with them.With a smile on the corner of Wu Chongwen's lips, he looked at Xiao Ningxue with the expression you said.Xiao Ningxue took two steps forward, scanning Boss Qian and the others.

"Boss Qian, let me ask you a question, if your plan succeeds tonight and takes over our village and robs our property, will you return it to us?"

Shopkeeper Qian looked ugly and was speechless.

If he could pay it back, would he mobilize a crowd to grab it? He wanted to tell some lies but couldn't find an excuse to deal with it.Others also hooked their heads.

After sweeping them around, Xiao Ningxue sneered, "That's it, then why do you think we will return these things to you?"

"You are good people." Someone whispered back.

Xiao Ningxue immediately responded.

"Why? A good person deserves to suffer, deserve to be robbed? You can be this good person."

Shopkeeper Qian was speechless.

Xiao Ningxue paused, and added indifferently.

"Besides, we are not good people. We just do our duty and don't cause trouble. If someone dares to provoke us, we will be more evil than anyone else."

"Tonight's incident was initiated by you first. We could have given you nothing back, but for the sake of your parents and children, we don't want your money."

"As for other things, if you need them, you can buy them from us." After Xiao Ningxue finished speaking, Wang Yonggui didn't forget to step forward and type a few words.

"Isn't everyone working so hard to earn some silver? We are willing to return the silver to you, which is already the greatest benevolence in the world. If you dare to be the white-eyed wolf and bite us in the future, then you will fall on us next time." I won’t let you off so easily.”

Shopkeeper Qian and others rushed forward to bow.

"I know, I know, we all know that in the future, I will do business honestly, and I will never dare to have such evil intentions again." After hearing their assurances, Xiao Zhengfang drove over all the carriages loaded with silver taels.

"The baggage and boxes of your belongings are all in these cars, and you can arrange to claim them yourself."

Shopkeeper Qian applauded and thanked repeatedly.

Xue Andong worriedly said to Shopkeeper Qian, "Hand over all your knives and weapons, otherwise you won't be allowed to leave."

Shopkeeper Qian hurriedly said: "We have nothing, where else can we go? We can only camp near your village tonight."

"It's none of my business where you set up camp, but I'm in charge of the safety of the village. Quickly, hand over all the knives." Shopkeeper Qian grinned helplessly at the bodyguards under him, and those people handed over all the knives and guns in their hands. come out.

After all, they were not real robbers, they were all businessmen doing business honestly on weekdays, and it was not their wish to fight and kill.

The villagers of Taohua Village here are willing to return their money, and they also believe that they are not evil people, at least they will not rob them of their money and be threatened by them.

After handing in the weapons, the shopkeeper Qian took the initiative to talk to Wang Yonggui about the "strong alliance".

"You have rice and grain supplies, and we have silver. How about we set up camp next to your village and form a big village?"
As a shrewd and successful businessman, he realized early on that this was the best place to stay, otherwise he would not have insisted on snatching the village.

The drought is more serious in the north than in the south. The further north you go, the more difficult it will be for rice and grain. At that time, you may not be able to buy grain with money.

And if he settled down here, as long as he had money, he would definitely be able to get food in the barracks, and he would definitely not starve to death.

Another one, it’s already snowing, if you don’t hurry to find a place to stay, what will you do if there is a snowstorm? There is no rice, no food, starvation and cold, and the only thing to do is wait for death!
So after weighing the pros and cons, Shopkeeper Qian decided to make a mistake and settle down in this area.

In the long run or not, make another plan, at least get through this winter.

Wang Yonggui had long planned to pull them together to settle down here. After all, they are from the same county. Although their character is not very good, at least they know the basics.

If so many people came from other places to camp near the village, they would face a huge threat and be on guard all the time, and they might not be able to sleep peacefully at night.

So it was really the best choice to let Shopkeeper Qian and the others be neighbors.

Immediately Wang Yonggui nodded.

"Okay, then it's settled."

"In a while, we will send people to sell rice, bedding and other supplies at the entrance of the village, and you can buy them with money." After a while, a huge trading market was formed at the entrance of the village.

The stone wall is full of torches, illuminating the surrounding area brightly.

Oilcloth, felt tents, food, etc., the supplies brought by the cashiers from their resident, were displayed again and sold here.

Some villagers even sold firewood and water, and the business was extremely booming.

Thirty water-carrying carriages also entered the village, and began to boil water, shed pig hair, and cleaned up the big black wild boars all over the ground.

For a while, smoke and water vapor filled the sky, covering the entire village, and it was extremely lively.

Mrs. Xiao's family was locked in a house near the entrance of the village. She gloated when she heard someone attacking the village, and scrambled to the crack of the door to watch the commotion.

Unexpectedly, there was heavy thunder and little rain, and the fire was turned off before the fight started.

The joyful people outside this room actually reconciled.

The men all carried their kitchen knives and headed for Shaiguping.

"Fat off the hair, clean up the ends first, so that it can be put into the pot, the children have been slandering for a whole day."

Although Mrs. Xiao was tied up and locked up, she did not escape any movement outside. Seventy or eighty wild boars were hunted back in the village, and two large barrels of fish were caught in the river. I don't know how rich the banquet is.
