Chapter 19 What an Accident!
"The dung beetle is so gutsy. Where did it come from? If you dare to come to my house to collect money and food, you can do it if you can." Just when Liu Ze made up his mind, he heard someone yelling on the wall, and then he was muffled. Shut up the whining.

"The one who is in charge is the stupid son of a member of Zhaojiazhuang!" Wei Zi explained angrily, and unconsciously touched the butt that was bitten by a dog before.

Seeing this, Liu Ze felt that he still needed to threaten him, so he stepped forward and shouted, "Mr. Zhao, don't blame us for not following the rules. It's useless for you to give me such a shit! If you don't show some sincerity, we will die." You are a Zhuangzi, otherwise I will lose the face of Second Brother Wang, and I will not be able to get along!"

Member Zhao couldn't do anything about it, but he felt sorry for the food, so he added a little more and shouted: "Master, this natural disaster is causing trouble, and we are also short of food. We really can't give so much food! You can give me less food!" , we are ready, so go to the next one!"

"Zhao Yuanwai, your village can collect a thousand shi of grain a year, so you give us this little! The gaps between my teeth can't be filled! How can I be worthy of these brothers!" Liu Ze raised his spear with both hands and used it. Jian drew a circle and threatened, "We won't leave if we don't have one, and we'll fight you right here! It's a sunny day, and our brothers haven't eaten yet, so hurry up and get some food, let us Let’s talk when we’re full!”

"Isn't that right? We walked a long way, should Zhao Yuanwai give us a meal?" Liu Ze turned around and raised his spear and shouted at the crowd behind.

Liu Ze was dissatisfied with the sparse voice, so he yelled with a straight face: "I'm bored to shit and eat? Call me hard, why would Zhao Yuanwai eat?"

After a few sentences, the crowd finally converged into one sentence: "Give me food! Give me food! Give me food!" The more than 500 people, old and weak, who were sitting sparsely at first, were all shouted to stand up, holding sticks and bowls , it really looks like that from a distance.

Seeing this situation, Liu Ze had some confidence, turned his head and continued to negotiate: "Mr. Zhao, if you don't show some sincerity, we won't be so easy to talk to!"

At this time, the young master of the Zhao family behind the wall of the village pulled Zhao Yuanwai and muttered: "Father, we can't give this!"

"Bullshit, this is imminent, why don't you do it?" Mr. Zhao muttered, and then knocked his stupid son on the head with hatred.

The shouts outside the courtyard wall shouting for food grew louder, as well as the sound of sticks hitting the ground and knocking of bowls and chopsticks.

The young master was also in a hurry: "Father, otherwise we'll do it with them!"

"What the hell! There are so many of them, can they catch them?" Zhao Yuanwai greeted the long-term workers at home, "Hurry up, take a few bags of grain and throw it down, let the poor people outside have a meal, and they won't leave after eating. Just do it with them! The hungry dog ​​stumbles over the latrine head, and the poor man can have a full meal."

The long-term tenants with hoes and farm tools around them were not very enthusiastic. Mr. Zhao had spoken for a long time, but no one came out to take orders.After a while, a tenant whose straw sandals had broken straps replied, "Master, our calves are so hungry that we can't do it!"

The young master Zhao next to him just kicked up, kicked the tenant who had just replied to the ground, and said, "You bastard! If you don't do it, the village will be ruined, and you have to go out to escape the famine! Beg for food!"

"They won't leave after eating for a while, and five catties of millet per person will do it to them!" Seeing that the morale was not high, Member Zhao quickly added, "Let my land, if you don't do it with us, get out! Save our Zhuangzi , Five catties of millet per person to do with them!"

Hearing this promise, the farmers who were digging in the soil finally regained their morale, and listened to Yuanwai Zhao's order to move the grain.

Seeing that today's situation was unclear, Officer Zhao quietly pulled his son aside and said, "Our family is small, and you are the only seedling in this generation. If you can't do well today, you have to go to Xi'an City to join your uncle. This county has been taken over by thieves, and I don’t know when the imperial army will come, even if we fool around today, I’m afraid our area will be in chaos, and we can’t wait! Then you will take a few long-term followers to Xi’an, do you hear me?”

"Father, I see that there are not many people with weapons outside. Most of them are poor people, many of them are old, weak, sick and disabled. In my opinion, let's send someone to contact the nearby Zhuangzi, and give this group a pot of food." , and save trouble!"

The young master didn't believe that his good old days would be gone like this. He saw that this group of people were just starving people. How could they have any ability? He could wipe out these people with some people by himself!How could it be so troublesome to go to Xi'an to seek refuge with my uncle!

"Bastard boy, you are very capable. You are asked to study to get fame. You catch chickens and chase dogs all day long and don't do business. You don't look at the natural and man-made disasters. There are hungry people everywhere, and the county is occupied by others. If one escapes, our Zhuangzi will be slaughtered, just like Majiazhai, look at how majestic Majiazhai used to be, now more than 100 people in the whole village are gone! All of them disappeared overnight Hurry up and pack up your things, and leave when things are over!"

"What about you, Dad? Won't you go to Xi'an with me?" The young master also felt a little scared when Zhao Yuanwai talked about Majiazhai.

"If we all leave, Zhuangzi will be barren. I have worked hard for most of my life! After you leave, give birth to a few more boys and do something serious!"

Not long after, a few bags of grain were thrown on the wall of the village, and the hungry people outside became excited when they saw this.

Following Liu Ze's order, the big guys started cooking in an orderly manner.

What if the pot is not enough?Member Zhao brought some pots out!

What if there is not enough firewood?Member Zhao throws some firewood out!

What if there is no food?Zhao Yuanwai, please bring out the order again!There is also oil, salt, sauce and vinegar!hurry up!
We leaders in the pole can't have no meat and no bar, so killing you a fat pig is not too much, right?
A few jars of wine, what?Why don't you drink it?It's a mistake to drink, let's put it away!The head of the family said to keep the purified Helaozi medical alcohol.

The group of hungry people who followed Liu Ze, whether they were old, weak, women, children or young men, all had their mouths full of greasiness after eating, and they were very happy.That 200-jin fat pig was chopped up by Liu Ze on the spot. Everyone got a share, even Liu Ze himself didn't get special treatment. They were very impressed with him.

After everyone had finished their meal, they began to stand in front of the village and yell again. The difference this time was that the hungry people yelled harder.

But what Liu Ze didn't expect was that even though Zhuangzi drew his sword inside and outside, Zhao Yuanwai still only gave five thousand catties of grain, a mule, a cart, and other messy sauces, ironware, farm tools, and cloth. wait.

"The boss, what should we do? This Zhao Yuanwai is too picky! Shall we go in and give him some flair!" Wang Shanbao suggested furiously, clenched his fists.

Wang Guizhi beside him nodded repeatedly, supporting his younger brother.

Not far away, Guo Shunwang was whispering to Cheng Mo. They seemed to have expected that Liu Ze would not be able to receive the food smoothly, and now they did not agree with Wang Shanbao's proposal. They just watched Liu Ze quietly, wondering what would happen to Liu Ze. Decide.

Liu Ze was thinking about it, but Lao Kong opened his mouth one step ahead of him.

"No, our subordinates are untrained hungry people, and we may not be able to get any benefits from a real fight!" Old Kong thought for a moment, stroked his long beard and said, "In my opinion, it is better to set fire to scare them!"

"Scare them?" Liu Ze repeated what Old Kong said, but he was thinking quickly about ways to scare them.

correct!Black powder!The supplies that brother Yu gave him can be considered useful!

Blast the doors open with black powder and scare them!
At that time, let's see if they don't take out the food obediently!If you are stingy, you can get some blood, okay?

In the afternoon of the same day, Liu Ze tied ten catties of black gunpowder tightly with sackcloth and placed it at the gate of Zhaojiazhuang. One end is fixed, and then a cotton thread is put in the middle, sprinkled with gunpowder, stroked with the boiled paste, and then waited for it to dry. The only disadvantage is that the burning speed is not easy to control, which is natural to modern fuses. There is no way to compare, but this indigenous technique has actually been used until the 90s, and it can be used completely.

Liu Ze took a catty of fat pork that was specially reserved for making soap and asked in front of the 75 strong men: "There is a big firecracker here. I want to light it at the gate of the village. Who dares to go and order it for me? This piece of pork is his!"

Seeing that none of this group of people signed up, Liu Ze cursed secretly in his heart, and continued to do ideological work: "This is just to frighten that Zhao Yuanwai, whoever dares to do it, then Zhao Yuanwai will wait." If he is soft, if he can give more food, I will give him an extra thirty catties!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a skinny middle-aged man immediately stood up: "The head of the house, I'll go!"

A few people stood up to sign up, and Liu Ze laughed aloud. He didn't expect this method to be so effective. These hungry people need food rewards to hook their minds!
Liu Ze said to the few people who came out later: "Don't worry, follow me in the future, there are plenty of opportunities to eat hot food!"

Sure enough, when the explosion sounded, the two groups of people inside and outside the wall fell silent looking at the half-shattered gate.

The different reactions are that the farmers and tenants on the wall of the village, the first reaction is to run back directly, some run in a hurry, and even run away from the straw sandals on their feet, and then they hear:

"It's broken! It's broken!"

"Master was beaten to death by them!"

"Don't run! I'm not dead yet!"

There were also shouts of "One person, five catties of millet, do it with them!", but only a few dared to turn around.

The first reaction of the hungry people was to let out a strange cry. Seeing the reaction of the people in the Zhuangzi, they rushed into the Zhuangzi in a daze for a few seconds, with shouts of "grab for food!" in the middle.

Then those few people in Zhuangzi who dared to turn their heads also ran away like girls!

"Brother Liu, shall we rush?" Wang Shanbao next to him pulled Liu Ze who was in shock.

No!What is going on with these hungry people who have been saying that they will not follow the thief just now?Turn into a bandit when you see the gate blown open?

Liu Ze turned his head and looked at the remaining group of five and the ten borrowed recruits who were at a loss, sighed, and said helplessly, "Let's block the gate first, it's chaotic inside, let's see what's going on before Go clean up the mess!"

I still want to be simple.

It is also complicated.

Underestimated the importance of food to the hungry, and underestimated the importance of food to the wealthy landowners.
