My Fresh Food Supermarket Tong Daming

Chapter 113: Prying the Corner

Zhou Ze did not intend to let the Chen family, a squire who had done so many evil deeds, treat human life as nothing, and forced four families to death in a row for his own selfish desires, which can be described as a disaster.

At the beginning, he reformed Mu Xiansheng because he was not a country gentleman in the true sense. Besides, although Master Mu had done too much, he only wanted money and never killed himself, so Zhou Ze reformed him through labor.

But for the Patriarch of the Chen family, Zhou Ze, he doesn't even have the idea of ​​reforming. He is not worthy of being reformed, only suitable for being sent to hell.

No wonder he was so violent. In Zhou Ze's heart, he had already regarded the entire Miyun County as his possession. He originally wanted to wait until his name was widely known in the county to see if he could subdue the other two gentry, but Now it seems that this is no longer necessary.

People who have tasted human blood steamed buns are like dogs that have licked human blood and cannot keep it alive.

Although he has already sentenced the Chen family to death, he is not a reckless man, and he will not directly lead people to exterminate the family. The impact would be too great, not to mention that the county magistrate Wang also said that the son of the head of the Chen family is now If you are an official in the capital, if you can't cut the grass and roots, a little carelessness will bring unnecessary trouble to yourself.

So he planned to collect all kinds of evidence of the Chen family's crimes and then resolve the matter through the government.

In this way, the matter of the Chen family will not be resolved in a short while. The problems of these tenants should be solved first. As long as these tenants are separated from the Chen family, the Chen family will be like a grasshopper after autumn.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ze had some thoughts in his mind, then looked at the tenants in front of him and said slowly, "You are all tenants of the Chen family, right?"

The crowd nodded.

"Then I wonder if you are willing to leave your identity as tenants and choose to follow me?"

Leaving the Chen family to follow the immortal head?

Everyone present couldn't help but hesitate a little, if they only had themselves, they would definitely agree without hesitation.

But each of them has a big family behind them, and the old and young women and children in the family have fallen into a whole body of problems due to long-term fatigue and lack of nutrition.

But the head of the fairy said that he will only take care of the food if he works for him, and they are also worried about what they will do if the job of the head of the fairy is only enough for a few months.

Know that a family without land is like duckweed without roots.

Although the Chen family is trying their best to squeeze them now, if there is no flood, even if there is an increase of [-]% of the autumn tax, the food left in their hands will be enough for the whole family to barely support them, so they are inevitably a little confused at the moment.

On the one hand, they really want to work for the fairy head, on the other hand, they are also full of worries about their families and the future.

After all, no matter how grateful they were to Zhou Ze, it took less than an hour for the two parties to meet.

Zhou Ze saw their worry from their hesitant eyes, and couldn't help but smile and said: "You can rest assured, if you choose to follow me, your family members will not starve to death even if they are lying on the bed, and you don't have to worry about it." If you don’t have work to do, you won’t be able to do it all your life.”

There will be plenty of work waiting for them to do such as building roads, picking mountain products, fishing, etc.

Zhou Ze's words seemed to give the group of tenants a shot in the arm, and they all expressed their views immediately: "The villain is willing to follow the fairy to the death!"

At this moment, the tenant who was talking before suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but look sad, and said, "Immortal Immortal, the Chen family may not let us go."

Looking at the speaker, Zhou Ze couldn't help asking, "Why didn't you let you go?"

It stands to reason that the tenants in Daming are only renting the land of the landlord, and they are not slaves of the landlord's family, and have the right to come and go freely.

The tenant said, "Returning to the Immortal, I still owe the Chen family a sum of money. If we don't pay the money back, the Chen family will not let us go."

Zhou Ze slapped his forehead, and he actually forgot about it.

The Chen family is really hateful!
After this person reminded the other excited tenants, they realized that they were also carrying the loan from the Chen family, their eyes immediately dimmed, and the scene was completely silent.

Zhou Ze's fingers kept tapping on the stone tabletop, and after a moment he raised his head and asked softly, "How much do you owe the Chen family?"

The person who spoke before hearing this was taken aback, and then replied honestly: "My family was loaned three or two or six cents because too much food was washed away by the flood and I couldn't make up the autumn tax."

"Hui Xianchang, my family is [-] points."

"My family is divided into two and one."

Zhou Ze became even more angry towards the Chen family after everyone told about the loans they carried on their backs.

He had studied the purchasing power of silver in the mid-Ming Dynasty before, and one tael of silver was roughly equivalent to the purchasing power of 500 yuan in modern times. In a place like this in the countryside of Miyun County, one tael of silver was enough for a family to live for a long time.

But the one with the most people present owed nearly four taels of silver.

To be more realistic, even if the whole family spends a year exhaustingly digging in the fields, they may not be able to scrape together four taels of silver.

Besides, the money that the Chen family lent them also had interest, and they would have to pay back as much as six taels next year.

Most of the tenants did not pay the money at all, and in the end the famine would only owe more and more, and their fate was already at an end.

In the end, their ending was either to sell their children and daughters to make up enough money, or the whole family became slaves of the Chen family for generations. Home is really good at calculating.

At this moment, Zhou Ze is even more determined to get rid of the Chen family.

Thinking of this, he changed his mind and went back to the supermarket to bring some of the silver seized from Tazi.

He originally planned to keep these silver coins as souvenirs, but now it seems that they are just in line for use.

The tenants saw the fairy elder disappear suddenly, and then reappeared in the same place not long after, holding a box in his arms, and they didn't know what was in the box.

Zhou Ze put the box on the stone table and opened it. Everyone looked at it subconsciously. When they saw piles of broken silver in the box, they couldn't help being confused. They didn't know what the fairy leader meant by this move.

At this time Zhou Ze said lightly: "You calculate the money you owe, and then take the money from this box and go back to pay off the loan owed to the Chen family, and then bring your family."

At this moment, the tenants at the scene were completely stunned. Is the immortal chief going to pay off their debts?
Even after hearing what Zhou Ze said, everyone didn't dare to take the money, because they felt that this matter was too unbelievable, and it had seriously exceeded their three views.

Seeing that they were motionless as if they had been acupunctured, Zhou Ze couldn't help urging: "What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and get the money."

Only then did the tenants wake up from a dream, and asked in disbelief: "Immortal Chief, is this money you used to repay the loan for us?"

Zhou Ze gave them a strange look, "It's natural. Didn't you say that the Chen family won't let you go if you can't repay the Chen family's loan? Now that you have this money, the Chen family will let you go if you want to come."

"Hurry up and pay off the status of leaving the tenants while there is not much owed now, otherwise you will end up dead sooner or later if you drag it on."

Zhou Ze couldn't be more familiar with Ligunli. Back then, his classmate owed usury because of his gambling. In just a few months, the initial 3000 yuan was rolled to 15. It was really scary!
When the tenants heard that the money was really used by the elders to help them repay the loan, they couldn't help but feel sour, and the dignified man burst into tears again.

"The immortal elder is above. How can He De, a villain and a pariah, be so sympathetic to the immortal elder?"

At this moment, their hearts were completely conquered by Zhou Ze.

　Day million failed. Today day 7K
　　Let me regain my morale and fight again tomorrow!
