Chapter 375: Audacious, kill one to serve as a warning to others
  Precisely because he is the chief envoy and needs to travel frequently between Fengyang County and the capital every month, he is more inclined to the imperial court.

Because if the chief minister wants to be promoted in the next step, he must obtain the approval of the court, which the Lin family cannot help.

And when he learned that Lin Yun had met with the emperor, he became interested.

……

Lin Yun and Ye Wanqing finally returned to Niubei Village smoothly without encountering any danger.

However, there was a riot in Niubei Village at this moment.

Still far away, Lin Yun saw the constant noise in the village.

Ye Wanqing frowned and said, "What's going on? Could it be that the Lin family has already knocked on the door?"

Lin Yun shook his head and said: "Impossible. If the Lin family really dared to take action, the emperor would not have warned him!! Let's go... and have a look!!"

Here, at the entrance of Niubei Village, a woman was sitting on the ground crying and shouting, causing the surrounding villagers to whisper.

On the ground in front of them, there was the corpse of a villager, covered in blood. It was obviously not a normal death, let alone a work-related injury.

At this time, Lin Wuyue frowned and comforted: "Auntie, people cannot be resurrected after death, so please forgive me and be patient!!"

When the woman saw Lin Wuyue, she cried even harder, pointed angrily at Yu Tao, the deputy commander of the private army in charge of security, and shouted: "Madam, my man was shot dead just because he had a quarrel with him!! You have to uphold justice for the orphans and widows outside!!"

As the leader of Niubei Village's private army, Ah San quickly stepped forward and said, "Auntie, you have to believe us, your man will never die in vain! When Mr. Lin comes, he will definitely give you an explanation!"

It turned out that this vicious incident occurred because Niubei Village began to collect iron ore from Niubei Mountain, and there was an uneven distribution of benefits.

Ordinary villagers who made black powder and farmed, their income was one hundred copper coins per day, which was not considered low considering the Daduan Dynasty.

However, the daily salary of miners is as high as two hundred copper coins per day.

After working hard every day, the villagers naturally wanted fairness, especially since everyone had great trust in Lin Yun, so several villagers organized themselves and wanted to discuss this issue.

However, due to a physical conflict, one of the private soldiers was injured. As the deputy leader, Yu Tao couldn't hold back and opened fire, which caused a catastrophe.

"No!! Mr. Lin has left Niubei Village for several days, and I don't know when he will come back. You must give me an explanation today!!"

The woman refused to let anyone take care of her, and was acting violently and crying.

The mood of the villagers changed.

Although the iron ore mining period in Niubei Mountain is still short, the impact on Niubei Village is very large.

Yang Tiexin and Lin Yun had negotiated the wages of miners at the beginning, but it was because miners were harder and it was a completely manual job, so it was inevitable that they would earn more.

Lin Wuyue was deeply troubled by the occurrence of this kind of thing. Normally, it would not be her turn to intervene in these matters.

Ah San and Yang Tiexin also looked very ugly.

Both of them understood that if this matter was not handled well, it would have extremely negative consequences, so they were prepared for Lin Yun to be angry when he came back.

At this time, Yu Tao stepped forward and shouted: "You bitch, do you still have the nerve to cry here? If your man hadn't attacked the Niubei Village private army, I wouldn't have shot him! We'll wait for the private army But those who protect your safety, you unscrupulous people have never taken us seriously, and privately cursed us as moths!!"

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding villagers who were watching the excitement suddenly exploded, and some men were eager to give it a try. A riot is probably inevitable.

Ah San saw something was wrong and whispered: "First Madam, Third Madam, you'd better go home first! I'll leave the matters here to my humble position to handle!!"

Lin Wuyue and Oona had long noticed that Yu Tao was unhappy, and when they heard what he said, they secretly scolded him for being stupid.

Lin Wuyue looked at Ah San displeased and asked, "You let us go home, what are you going to do with it?"

"I believe that no matter what, we must first separate the villagers and the private army, otherwise the riot will definitely become uncontrollable!!"

"Huh, Ah San, although my husband values ​​you very much, you are inseparable from the responsibility for the trouble this time! Are you going to use this tough way to solve it?"

Even though Lin Wuyue was just a woman and never interacted with the villagers, she also understood that water can carry a boat and also capsize it.

Seeing this, Yu Tao explained: "Madam, these unruly people are used to living a good life! They can earn a hundred copper coins a day, but they are not satisfied! In my opinion, they should be severely punished! When Mr. Lin meets, Come, I am willing to shoulder the responsibility and will never bring trouble to the leader!!"

In his opinion, Ah San was helping him to settle matters, so he also wanted to take the opportunity to please Ah San.

But at this moment, Lin Yun's voice came from the crowd.

"Nonsense!! Asan, get here!!"

When everyone around heard this familiar voice, they all turned their heads and made way for a passage.

Lin Yun walked in with Ye Wanqing.

When Yu Tao saw Lin Yun, his face turned very ugly.

When the woman saw that Lin Yun finally came back, she cried even harder. She grabbed Lin Yun's hem and said, "Master Lin, you have to make the decision for me!! My man died so unjustly!!"

Lin Yun's face softened a little, and he bent down to help her up, and said comfortingly: "Auntie, don't worry, I will solve this matter immediately, and I will never let you and the hundreds of people in Niubei Village feel cold!! "

The woman nodded, and everyone was still willing to believe Lin Yun. After all, he had always had a very good influence in everyone's minds.

At this time, Ah San knelt directly on the ground and said: "Please punish me, Master Fourteen! I am willing to accept any punishment for my humble position!!"

Lin Yun stared at him indifferently and said: "I asked you to take charge of Niubei Village's private army. Is this how you manage it? Using bamboo guns made by the villagers to aim at my people, Lin Yun?"

Ah San's face was already covered in cold sweat, and he wiped it while saying: "Young man is guilty!!"

"Guilty? Okay, then let me ask you, what are you going to do with Yu Tao next?"

Lin Yun was already preparing to kill as a warning to others. He could tell that if he couldn't handle it well this time, it would leave scars in the hearts of the villagers, and all his efforts this year would be in vain.

Ah San glanced at Yu Tao and said in a deep voice: "Remove his status as deputy commander and imprison him again!! Dispose of him according to military law!"

The surrounding villagers were talking in low voices, obviously dissatisfied.

Lin Yun laughed angrily and said: "Okay, so that's what you think!! However, you can't satisfy me!! Forget it, I will solve this matter myself!! Someone come!!"
