Splendid Pastoral: The system is against the sky

Chapter 16
"Our Detai rice business is unreasonable. What's the matter?" The skinny man was very angry. "You ordinary people still want to eat rice? Is rice what you deserve to eat in this disaster year? Let me tell you, You little girl, you have to sell the ten cents a catty of rice today, or you have to sell it if you don’t!"

"So what if you don't sell it?" Su Yaoxue raised her eyebrows.

"If you don't sell you, don't even think about leaving!" The skinny man shouted, "Brilliant fellow!"

The men behind the thin man immediately pulled out a wooden stick from the back waist, weighed it in their hands, and surrounded Su Yaoxue.

The skinny man sneered, thinking to himself, this time it's up to you whether you can sell it or not!

Unexpectedly, Su Yaoxue did not take a step back. She held her head high and said loudly: "Fathers and folks, can you just watch the rice that is going to be sold to you being forced to be sold to the unscrupulous Detai Rice Bank?" Do you think that after the Detai Rice Bank collected the rice at a low price, they would be willing to sell it to us poor people at a price of twelve cents a catty?"

"If you want to buy by force, pass my level first!" Someone rushed to Su Yaoxue with a pole.

"Pass me again!" A butcher came over with a butcher's knife.

"Pass my level!" Someone came over holding a long bench.

……

All of a sudden, there was a turmoil at the entrance of Washi City, which frightened away the people in Detai Mihang.

"You little girl, just wait for me! Detai rice shop is the biggest rice shop on this street. If you dare to step on this street and refuse to sell rice to us, you will pay for it." The price!" The skinny man shouted while fleeing in embarrassment.

"You still dare to threaten me? Folks, do you want to see me pay the price?" Su Yaoxue raised her chin and asked loudly.

"I don't want to! Let's beat him up, the law does not blame everyone!" Su Yaoxue's chief younger brother, Chen Huzi, immediately yelled while taking advantage of the chaos.

So, Hulala, a group of people rushed up and beat up the skinny man.

Su Yaoxue gave Chen Huzi a satisfied look, this kid is really a clever little ghost!

Not bad, not bad, can be of great use!
After beating up the skinny man, the common people gathered around Su Yaoxue to buy rice. Soon, today's [-] catties of rice were sold out.

After buying them, the common people expressed their gratitude to Su Yaoxue one by one.

After all, Su Yaoxue's willingness to not bully and dominate the market in such a catastrophic year is really a noble character!

After Su Yaoxue collected a bag of copper coins, she carried the bag and walked away with the children.

The thin man hid in the dark, and spat fiercely on the ground, with some blood foam mixed in the saliva.

"Brother Bin, what should we do?" A man behind the man asked.

"What should I do?" Brother Bin snorted coldly, "This stinky bitch dares to ask someone to beat me, I will definitely break her leg!"

"Brother Bin, do you have any ideas?" The man leaned forward and asked.

After thinking for a while, Brother Bin whispered a few words into the man's ear.

After the man heard this, his eyes lit up: "Good idea! Brother Bin, this idea is really foolproof! She dared to have Brother Bin beaten, and Brother Bin made her break her leg. I don't think she will be able to marry after being crippled." Get married!"

"Go ahead and start working on this matter tomorrow!" Brother Bin said solemnly.

"I see, Brother Bin, don't worry! How can a little girl like her be a match for so many of us? Besides, Brother Bin's plan is so thorough, we can discount that dead girl's legs even if we close our eyes !” said the man confidently.

Brother Bin smiled in satisfaction, and then took out a penny from his purse: "If the matter is done well, there will be a big reward!"

"Yes yes yes." The man smiled obsequiously, reaching out to pick it up.

Brother Bin stuffed the money back into the purse again, and said with a nonchalant smile: "The money can only be given to you if the matter is done well. If the matter is not handled well, I will discount it." Your leg!"

"Yes, yes, yes." The man was startled, and quickly responded.

The others waited to take a step forward, and supported Brother Bin to walk slowly back to Detai Mihang.

Brother Bin was seriously injured, and every time he took a step, he would give Su Yaoxue at least [-] points of hatred, which made Su Yaoxue feel very happy.

"One hundred, one hundred and three, 120 six..." Su Yaoxue counted the constant hatred value, very happy.

"Boss, what are you counting?" Chen Huzi asked puzzled.

"It's nothing! It's just that we made another two thousand catties of rice today!" Su Yaoxue patted him on the shoulder and smiled sincerely, "Thank you Detaimixing!"

"Ah?" Chen Huzi was confused.

"It's fine if you don't understand," Su Yaoxue waved her hand, and took out a handful of copper coins from her purse, "Come on, come on, I've given you all the wages I promised you! In addition, each person will add ten more coins." Wenqian, the boss will reward you! Chen Huzi will reward you with an extra fifty Wenqian, because he will do something!"

"Really, thank you boss!" The children gathered around with a smile, and received the copper coins, full of a sense of accomplishment in their hearts.

In the past, their biggest extravagant hope was to be able to eat a full meal. How could they ever think that they could earn money for the family at their age?

"I'll take the remaining copper coins to the bank to exchange for silver. After a while, the boss will take you to a restaurant!" Su Yaoxue said happily, shaking the bag full of copper coins.

Su Yaoxue took the children to the bank and exchanged 19 taels of silver.

When he came out, Douding from the children's group ran into his younger brother Xiao Douding. Xiao Douding followed his cousin to the town to play, and ran over as soon as he saw his eldest brother.

So, Su Yaoxue bought a bunch of candied haws for Xiao Douding.

After Xiaodouding thanked her, she took a big bite of the candied haws, and went to the restaurant with Su Yaoxue and her group. Suddenly, she saw a middle-aged woman with a big black mole on her face, and patted her forehead: " Ah, Sister Su, I forgot to tell you, after you went to the town to sell rice today, your mother specially found that woman!"

"Oh, what about finding a woman?" Su Yaoxue asked puzzled.

"Sister Su, that woman is a toothless woman! When my mother asked me to steal eggs from your father's chicken coop, I heard your mother tell this toothmaid that she would sell the baby girl!"

"Girl doll?" Su Yaoxue thought about it for a while, isn't she the only female doll in the family? "Damn it! It really is the stepmother! They have severed all ties, and they still don't forget to sell me! Little Douding, did you hear me clearly? Is it absolutely true?"

"It's absolutely true!" Xiao Douding patted his chest, "That's what your mother said."

"That poisonous woman is not my mother!" Su Yaoxue said angrily, "Did they say where they were going to sell me?"

"Red building? Yellow building? Brothel?" Xiao Douding thought for a long time, but couldn't think of it. "It said it was a place to serve men. I don't remember clearly."

"Then, have you told others about this?" Su Yaoxue squatted down and looked at Xiaodouding.
