Lin Gao Qiming

Chapter 321
"Xin Nachun is Xin Nari's younger sister. This girl is amazing. She has a hot temper. She dares to kill pigs. Ordinary boys are not enough for her."

"Well," Liu Si whispered, "tell me about the things and people in the village."

"You know what these things are for," Widow Zhou spat, her almond eyes glowing, "I'm going to sell myself to two female officials again. It's a shame for a big man to listen to two women's orders!"

"He's the chief, and he pays me. Officials have to kneel when they see the empress dowager. Besides, these two girls are tall and strong, like big horses. How can I look up to your fourth brother—— ——" Liu Si pulled the woman into his arms, stretched his hands from his waist, rubbed them up and down, put his mouth next to her ear and whispered, "Good lady, tell fourth brother all the things in the village Well, you are indispensable at night to be comfortable..."

Liu Si's selfishness and behavior of "fake public affairs for personal gain" made him the person with the most information among the team members.From Widow Zhou's mouth, he learned a lot about the situation in the village, especially the recent movements of the gangsters. This is extremely important news, and he dared not neglect it. Report to them the news you have inquired from Widow Zhou.

"It seems that these bandits are still haunted." Dong Weiwei said.

Du Wen gritted her teeth: "Looks like we're going to severely suppress it!" She thought about it again, "Is it the landlords and rich peasants who are behind these households?"

"Landlord, rich peasant?" Liu Si was taken aback for a moment, but he had learned basic social class division in the peasant lecture.It's just that I didn't expect such a question to be asked, so I hesitated: "It doesn't count—"

Dong Weiwei was dissatisfied with her theory of family background: "Landlords and poor peasants, let Liu Si talk about the business first!" She turned to him and asked him: "What is the attitude of the common people towards us now? Bandits are still so rampant, why don't you want to organize the villagers to defend themselves?" Woolen cloth?"

"People in the village have three fears." Liu Si said, "The first fear is that the work team will liquidate the issue of 'bandits'."

The Shisancun area used to be the lair of bandits, and it is rare for ordinary people not to have anything to do with bandits, at least they have provided food and fodder, let alone those who followed to reap benefits.If you want to pursue it, you can be regarded as a "collaborator", and you have to peel off your skin if you don't die.

The second is that they are afraid that once the bandits make a comeback, they will retaliate.Some people who wanted to get closer to the work team were afraid that if the work team ran away and the bandits came, their revenge would be very cruel.Many people still have lingering fears about the massacres in the village after the gangsters were recruited by the party. Almost all the families with whom he had feuds and festivals in the past were killed, and some even wiped out their families.Some families had no choice but to flee as a whole.

"Third is the fear of going to war." Liu Si summed up in substandard Mandarin, "I am afraid that after building up the courage of the country, I will be transferred out to meet the bandits."

Dong Weiwei said: "I remember that a security team was formed a few months ago, and there should be dings in Shisancun area. It seems that I haven't heard that people here are afraid of war."

"We sent Ding. I heard from people in the village that the party's sect said that Kun... is not easy to mess with. Just send a few to deal with it. Each village sends a few bachelors and outsiders."

"I didn't expect to be so timid, afraid of fighting with bandits, what would Jian Xiangyong do?" Du Wen was a little discouraged.

"You can't say that. They are afraid of being beaten and killed by bandits." Dong Weiwei said, "Since there are three fears, let's let them not be afraid first. Only when they have courage can they dare to do things."

"If Xin Nari is not arrested and beheaded for public display, the hearts of the people in this village will not be stable. Our attempt to establish a militia to control Shisan Village will not be realized."

The news from the regular radio station every day is not very exciting—Xin Nari Yiran has disappeared without a trace, and no bandit suppression detachment has reported that Xin Nari has been caught or killed.

The information collected by other students is similar. When it comes to the attitudes of various people, most people are indifferent, and the few people the students have won only provided some basic information.To sum up, there is a turbulent undercurrent under the calm surface of this village.The demise of the gangsters of the party seems to have thrown a stone here: the relatives of the bandits who were killed wanted revenge, and the families who were harmed by the bandits in the past also wanted to take advantage of this shareholder wind to avenge their revenge.Hatred is fermenting in this small village.A fierce storm was approaching, but Du Wen and Dong Weiwei underestimated the severity of the situation they were facing.

After Liu Si left, the two women started a new round of quarrels - this time it was about whether to arrest the gangsters: Du Wen asked to send someone to arrest the gangsters immediately, "destroy the prestige of the gangsters" .Dong Weiwei disagreed, thinking that it would be too credulous to arrest people based on Liu Si's investigation.

"Besides, should we arrest the whole family, or only the men? What will we do after we are arrested?" Dong Weiwei asked rhetorically.

After Du Wen thought about it, it was true that it was easy to catch people, but if they were caught, they had to be dealt with...

"Hold a mass struggle meeting!" She finally found a trick from the land reform.

"It may not be useful." Dong Weiwei shook her head repeatedly, "It's easy for you to catch the gangsters. But are the families of the victims willing to come out to fight them? There are a lot of soy saucers here, and they are also worried about the loose bandits outside. It may not be possible Get people going."

"What do you propose?"

"Let's wait and see." Dong Weiwei couldn't come up with any clever plan, "If Xin can be caught that day, it would be great if he can be brought here for a public trial."

"Isn't that the same as not saying anything?" Du Wen felt anxious.

"No matter what, it's better to find out the details first." Dong Weiwei rolled her eyes, "We can use the foreigners behind."

"What are you using foreigners for?" Du Wen instinctively disliked this guy.

"It's okay, it's for my use." Dong Weiwei said, "Foreigners are not our people. Although no one listens to him, it is more convenient for us to do activities. It would be nice to ask him to help collect information in the village and conduct propaganda. it works."

Although Du Wen felt unreliable, since the failure of the mass meeting, she had some doubts about her infallibility.So I'm not holding on.Immediately ask someone to find Bai Duolu.

Bai Duolu came from behind with a sad face——Since he arrived in Daolu Village, he has become Lu Ruohua's servant, and he has to help print promotional materials: Before leaving, Lu Ruohua asked him to write a few propaganda materials, and paid for Zhou Dongtian's The printing office carved a few blocks, and carried them back to the village tirelessly.

When he was called to enter the yard, his hands were covered with black ink and he was wiping his hands with a piece of paper—he felt very sad, because the propaganda materials he worked so hard to print appeared frequently in various places in the village recently. In daily life, it is often seen even in toilets.

Bai Duolu thought so too, and besides, this is the only way to open up the situation right now.

"Okay, I'll go and talk to Father Lu." After he finished speaking, he felt that he had sinned a lot—wondering whether he should confess and repent.

When Bai Duolu returned to the house, he saw that Lu Ruohua was still writing something with an indigenous quill pen under the oil lamp, and he was probably writing some preaching words again.

"Father—" he interrupted the industrious Frenchman, "I have something to say..."

"What's the matter, my child." Lu Ruohua had a humble expression on his face.

"Should we change our ways?"

"Oh," Father Lu was obviously very interested in this issue, "you are finally willing to discuss this issue with me."

"Yes, Father." Bai Duolu said, "I have some ideas."

"Speak, my child."

"I don't think there is any need to print and redistribute things like leaflets. Most people here are illiterate and can't read them. No matter how many copies are printed, they are just used as paper for their lives... I think this problem , Father, you have also seen it."

"Yes." Lu Ruohua nodded.

"You know, you are dealing with Chinese people. And I am also Chinese. So I know what Chinese people think." Bai Duolu said, "You know, Chinese people are a realistic nation in essence... "

Bai Duolu began to explain to Dong Weiwei what Dong Weiwei was talking about--in fact, these things are no strangers to Bai Duolu,
He talked a lot, but Lu Ruohua kept silent.Finally, he said, "My child, the Bible says..."

"Father," Bai Duolu said very humbly, "

Lu Ruohua nodded: "I understand what you mean. My child." After speaking, he closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.Bai Duolu slipped away quietly.
