The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 298 The imperial edict arrives

Arriving at the entrance of the village, Shi Liu saw the young man from Weijia Village, who looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. It must have been a great blow to him that his village had suffered a great disaster and all his relatives and friends had left him. His eyes were almost sunken, and he looked thin and haggard.

But those eyes, after seeing the pomegranate, lit up surprisingly.

Then he began to kowtow to the pomegranate, "My benefactor, please accept my kowtow!"

He hit his forehead so hard that it seemed like his life was in danger. Fortunately, the ground was flat and there were no stones or anything, otherwise, he would have hit his forehead hard.

But his forehead was also bruised, mainly because he had hit it many times before.

Shi Liu was startled and quickly asked someone nearby to pull him up, "Don't kowtow to me! Get up!"

The man was thin but very strong. He tried to pull the person up before he could move. He gritted his teeth and finally pulled the person up, holding him up and preventing him from kneeling again.

The man burst into tears the next moment, "You deserve to kowtow! You deserve to kowtow! All 278 people in my Weijia Village died at the hands of the bandits, and I'm the only one who survived. What a pity that I'm useless and can't kill those bandits to avenge them!

The news spread throughout Qianping County that it was your Xiahe Village that wiped out the bandits, and it was you, Miss Pomegranate, who had the foresight to catch the bandits in a trap, leaving them with no way out. You also killed the evil bandit leader with your own hands and chopped off his head!
You killed the bandits and helped me get revenge. You are my great benefactor! Wei Feng is all alone. From now on, I am willing to stay by your side and work like a slave to repay your kindness!"

As Wei Feng said this, he broke free again and knelt down, as if he would never get up unless Shi Liu treated him like a slave.

Pomegranate:……

With her clever plan, she caught the bandits in the trap?
She killed the bandit leader herself and chopped off his head?

The corner of Shi Liu's mouth twitched. My God, this story is really amazing.

This is the power of "three people make a tiger". Could it be that if the story gets further away, it will be said that she killed more than a hundred bandits by herself and saved the entire village from danger?

She hurriedly said, "You misunderstood. Hurry up and get up. I didn't kill the bandit leader!"

Wei Feng was stunned and couldn't help but look at the village head Liu next to him.

Head of the village Liu coughed and said, "It is true that she didn't kill him. She had someone kill him."

Wei Feng: "Anyway, you are the great benefactor of my Weijia Village. I have nothing, so I just hope that you can take me in and repay you!"

As he spoke, as if afraid that Shi Liu would refuse to accept him, he hurriedly talked about his strengths, "I can read and write, and I can do accounts! I don't even need an abacus to do the accounts, and I guarantee I won't make any mistakes. If you don't believe me, test me!"

Shi Liu was moved when he heard this, and immediately asked him a question, "Now there are four people who come to work, and the wage for six days is nine cents of silver. If twenty-four people work for half a month, how much should the wages be?"

Wei Feng thought for a moment and said, "Thirteen taels and five cents!"

As soon as the pomegranate question came out, she started to do mental arithmetic in her mind. Just as she finished the calculation, Wei Feng's answer came out. Her eyes lit up slightly. This Wei Feng is really good!
He inevitably asked a few more questions. Wei Feng was able to figure them out without an abacus.

Shi Liu didn't know how he did it, but such a rare talent was exactly what she needed!
"I want to hire you as my family's accountant. I'll pay you three taels of silver a month, with food and lodging provided, and three sets of clothes every season. What do you think?"

Wei Feng didn't even bother to listen to the conditions. He was so excited when he heard that Shi Liu was willing to keep him by his side that he kowtowed and said, "I am willing, I am willing!"

"Hey, don't kowtow like this from now on, otherwise I won't hire you."

Wei Feng listened and quickly stood up.

Village Chief Liu and Clan Chief Li were watching and were happy to see Shi Liu get such an impressive accountant position in the blink of an eye. Although they were still wondering why the first question in the previous test had so many questions, Wei Feng was able to answer them all, which was really impressive!
Now that the matter was settled, Shi Liu could not help but ask Li Chunxi to take Wei Feng downstairs to settle him down, give him a wash, change his clothes, and eat something.

Just as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of horse hooves outside the village.

Everyone looked out at the same time and saw a team with fluttering flags coming in that direction, then going down the village road, passing the entrance of Shanghe Village, and heading straight for their village.

这 是
The people in Xiahe Village were extremely confused and had no idea what this was for, but those with sharp eyes could clearly see that the people protecting the team were soldiers in armor, and the person riding a horse on the side of the team seemed to be their county magistrate, Lord Zhang?

The people in Xiahe Village had never seen such a scene before and had no idea what it was like, but Shi Liu's eyebrows jumped. The man in the red robe, with a white face and holding a whisk in the first sedan chair was clearly a eunuch!
The people in Shanghe Village naturally noticed this scene. When the team got off the stone bridge of Xiahe Village, they saw Chief Fan and his men hurrying over.

After getting off the stone bridge, the team stopped. County Magistrate Zhang dismounted and looked at the curious and confused Liu Lichang and others. He quickly reminded them, "This is the angel who came to announce the emperor's decree. The emperor heard about your heroic deeds in killing bandits in Xiahe Village and wants to reward you. Why don't you quickly call all the villagers out to prepare the incense table to receive the emperor's decree?"

After he finished speaking, he didn't get any response. He looked up and saw that it was Village Chief Liu and the others who were all shocked!
County Magistrate Zhang also laughed secretly. Not to mention the people in Xiahe Village, even those in Luoshui City, including himself, had seen the angel procession from the capital many times!
The Xiahe Village is so happy that even the ancestral graves are emitting smoke. It is such a great honor from heaven!
It would be bad to let the angel wait any longer, so County Magistrate Zhang looked towards Shi Liu and was about to remind her.

Shi Liu turned around and told the fast boys to hurry back to the village to ring the gong and shout, asking everyone to come, and to carry those who could not move. This was a great event for Xiahe Village, and no one could miss it!

After the chaos, Village Chief Liu and Clan Chief Li had finally come to their senses and were shaking with excitement. When all the villagers had gathered at the entrance of the village and the incense table was ready, the angel in the sedan finally got down from the sedan holding an imperial edict.

Magistrate Zhang led the people of Xiahe Village to kneel down, and Patriarch Fan and others who had come to watch the fun also knelt down quickly.

The angel slowly opened the imperial edict in his hand and announced: "The Emperor, in accordance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: The state should be benevolent and take care of the people first. The villagers of Xiahe Village, Luoshui County, Daming Prefecture, Bingzhou, bravely resisted the evil bandits and killed hundreds of them. You are so brave and brave that you are a blessing to our Great Jin. I am very pleased with you. Now I specially grant you the title of 'No. 1 Village in the World' and reward you with a thousand taels of silver. I decree this!"

As soon as the imperial edict came out, everyone was stunned and no one reacted.

Only a clear female voice was heard leading the way, "Xiahe Village accepts the order, thank the Lord for his grace! Long live the emperor!"

Then there was a deafening roar, with people shouting "Long live the emperor!" "Xiahe Village accepts the order and thanks the Lord for His grace! Long live the emperor!"

County Magistrate Zhang couldn't help but look at Shi Liu deeply.

The angel also cast his gaze on Shi Liu and handed the imperial edict directly to her. "Is this Miss Shi Liu?"
