Fleeing from natural disasters, marrying the villain with the koi system

Chapter 86 The Old Man

On the way to the town, Gu Qianqian and Gouzi walked countless times, but Jin Jiang only walked with the village chief when he was young.

Now there are a lot of weeds and trees growing on both sides of the road, and I can't see what it used to be like.

Gu Qianqian chewed the bun with her mouth in her mouth, and said, "Xiao Jiang, just wait and memorize this route carefully, and it will be fine even if you come by yourself in the future."

The three of them arrived at the town after walking for more than half an hour. Compared with the last time, the number of people in the town has increased significantly this time.

Gouzi looked around and felt a sense of crisis when he saw the sudden crowd.

Quietly moved to Gu Qianqian's side, and whispered, "How about I go and find out?"

Gu Qianqian nodded invisibly, "Wait to gather at the back door of the restaurant."

So the three separated first, Gu Qianqian and Jin Jiang pushed the cart to the restaurant first, while Gouzi went to inquire about the news.

When Gu Qianqian arrived at the back door of the restaurant, he didn't rush in, but went around to the front, seeing that there were quite a few people coming to the restaurant for dinner.

One of the rich young men with a round fan said to the people next to him: "I heard that this restaurant is going to recommend a new product today, so I specially asked Brother Chang to try it!"

Another person echoed: "That's not true! Although this restaurant is not as delicious as the food I ate in Beijing before, the simple and simple style just reflects the local customs and customs here."

The rich young man thought it was true, and expressed his admiration for the other party, "Brother Chang is amazing, and I'm ashamed to be a little brother. With such a heart, brother Chang will definitely have great fortune in the future!"

"Don't dare, don't dare!"

……

Gu Qianqian rolled her eyes, grinned and went back.

What sufferings in the world, local conditions and customs, and even been to the capital, maybe even this small town has never been out!
Who wouldn't brag!

Seeing what he wanted to see, Gu Qianqian stayed where he was, waiting for the dog to come back.

After a while, the dog ran over panting.

"I found out that it seems that the food tax has been abolished by the higher authorities, and all the previous collections will be returned to the villagers."

Gu Qianqian was taken aback, didn't the emperor know about this?That would be interesting.

Gu Qianqian suddenly remembered that Niu Zhiquan, who came to their village to collect grain tax, had observed that this person was not simple, and did not know what was going on now.

Gu Qianqian is thinking about him here, and Niu Zhiquan is also talking about Gu Qianqian and the others over there.

"The two villages over there are poor. As soon as you enter, the sky is full of yellow sand. The villagers inside eat bark, and soon they will eat dirt."

Sitting opposite Niu Zhiquan was an old man with a gray beard, but his eyes were radiant, and he did not look old at all.

His wrinkled hands were covered with calluses.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he felt as majestic and heavy as if he was on a battlefield.

"Oh! If I hadn't come here on business, I wouldn't have known that someone prepared the emperor to do such an outrageous thing!"

"Isn't this pouring dirty water on the emperor's head!"

The sound was like a bell, striking everyone's heart, and the people serving around them subconsciously straightened their backs.

Niu Zhiquan also silently corrected his standing posture.

"That's all." The old man sighed, "The old man can't control so much now, and my body is getting more and more useless. I just want to stay with my family."

"When I go back this time, I have to spend time with my granddaughter. She just came back not long ago."

When mentioning the granddaughter, the old man's eyes were full of kindness and distress.

Niu Zhiquan was silent beside him.

granddaughter?It seems to be from Shiwa Village as well.
