Chapter 23

In fact, the parties involved know very well whether certain things can be done.But this cannot be said by anyone else, because to others it always comes across as callous.

Therefore, the parties themselves must raise objections to prevent this matter.

Sacrifice, sacrifice yourself in order not to involve others.

So the boss can’t say it, and no one else can say it. Wu Xiaoliu must do it.

Wu Xiaoliu is not a person who cannot see these things clearly.

"Military advisor, let's forget it. We can't do bride snatching."

"why?"

why?
Wu Xiaoliu had many reasons to say, for example, he had no face to see Wu Xiaoman, for example, he could not let the people in the village sacrifice for him in vain, for example, such trouble would easily arouse the anger of the city people, for example, there was no lower limit for what a rich man could do.

But when he said this, he knew that Jiang Li would definitely not agree.

Therefore, he took out the big master to suppress Jiang Li.

"The big boss said that people from the mountains cannot go down and rob civilian girls."

"But this is not just about robbing anyone. You are robbing your future wife. This is love. I'll go talk to the boss!"

"military adviser!"

Just as Jiang Li was about to stand up, he was stopped by Wu Xiaoliu.

Wu Xiaoliu looked very embarrassed.It was already difficult for him to make the decision not to steal his bride, and Jiang Li made it increasingly difficult.

Jiang Li heard Wu Xiaoliu talking to him.

"Military Advisor, I know you care about us, but there are some rules in the cottage to keep the cottage alive. The leaders are indeed more tolerant of you, but if you don't care about any of the rules, our cottage will be destroyed."

"But you're not being a hooligan, so this can't be considered unruly, right?"

"I'm talking about the rules of not making trouble. Not all rich people can rob. Some rich people are ruthless, and some rich people have backgrounds, such as this Li Hong. There are people from the court behind him. If we provoke him, no matter whether he is dead or not, Someone will come to suppress the bandits."

Hearing this, Jiang Li couldn't say anything more and just sighed.

There is a reason why Niutoushan has survived to this day despite being suppressed by the government several times.

One, they have some connection with the city lord.The village secretly gives a portion of the money to the city lord every year.Although the money is not much, it is only equivalent to a little pocket money, but the lord of Sifang City is a strict wife, and it is not easy to have pocket money, so he will not let the money just disappear.

Second, officers and soldiers are also human beings.There are traps on the way up the mountain, the people on the mountain have weapons, and the people in the village don't have any hatred against them. So why do they have to fight to the death when suppressing bandits?Therefore, when the boss is robbing, he will also deliberately avoid some people, and will not kill them all casually, or make the matter too big to stop.

Third, all forces need such a group of bandits.The very existence of bandits is evil, so others can regard themselves as righteous, even various gangs.Or to be honest, as long as there are bandits, the city lord can achieve political achievements.There is a difference between bandits and bandits. There will always be bandits, but all the bandits in Niutoushan have been killed. Who can guarantee that the new bandits will still be the same as now?
If the new bandits are a bunch of lunatics, everyone will be in trouble.

After a long time, Jiang Licai said again.

"They've all become bandits..."

The second half of her sentence was very clear to Wu Xiaoliu and the people nearby who were eavesdropping.

He has become a bandit and has to pay attention to so many rules. This does not sound like a bandit at all.

But there is no way.

When Jiang Li returned to the room, she heard someone knocking on the door.After opening the door, it was San Dangjia at the door.

Jiang Li sighed again.

"After all, you still covet my beauty."

"You are just a brother in my eyes, without beauty."

The Third Master sat down on the steps, and then motioned for Jiang Li to sit down as well.

After sitting down, Jiang Li asked the third master.

"Are you here to reason with me again?"

"correct."

"I hate you."

"Haha, you can't stop me."

The Third Master shut up after watching two episodes, and then started talking.

"Do you know why there are so many bandits in our mountain, but none of them have entered your room? Even if you don't care, we still need to care. The more den of thieves we are, the more we have to take care of ourselves. You are the only woman in the village, And we cannot treat you as a woman. At least not in certain aspects. Otherwise, trouble will occur. This is also prohibited by the master."

"The boss has so many rules."

"It is these rules that allow our village to survive to this day. You have never been outside. Every year, some bandits are completely wiped out. They are just having too much fun, so it is not a loss if they are wiped out. So no matter how unwilling you are, you must abide by them. Some rules.”

"...But I just feel bad. Shouldn't the bandits be more chic?"

Jiang Li held his chin and stared blankly ahead.

Then, she heard the Third Master talking again. "If you really think you are a completely free and unrestrained person, introduce him to me. I have never seen such a person."

The Third Master said this and stood up.

Jiang Li suddenly remembered "Xiaoyaoyou".As big as Kunpeng and Dachun, as small as wild horse dust, which one can be truly free?
A perfect person has no self, a god has no merit, and a saint has no name.But this is all about one person, not a group of people.

In the next two days, Jiang Li looked more worried than Wu Xiaoliu, as if the person getting married was her childhood sweetheart.

Jiang Li didn't want to worry about it anymore and decided to go down the mountain to have a look.

The boss originally wanted to reject Jiang Li's request to go down to the mountain, because Jiang Li has not made it clear that he has given up on the idea of ​​going down to the mountain to snatch the bride.

"I came down the mountain just to inquire about this matter, and I didn't do anything else. And I'm the only one going down the mountain. No matter how much trouble I make, I can't make any trouble alone, right?"

"It's hard to say, what if you go and carry the bride up the mountain yourself."

The third master said next to him.

Jiang Li looked at him, and then said to the boss.

"Master, I promise that any decision I make on this matter will be discussed with you first and I will never make my own decision. If I make my own decision, you will drive me away."

After talking about this, the boss let Jiang Li go down.

After Jiang Li came down the mountain, he went straight to Sifang City.

Rich Man Li Hong's house is very big, only a little smaller than the city lord's mansion, which is also his concern.But in terms of decoration, it definitely surpasses the City Lord's Mansion.

His main business is medicinal materials, tea, pawnshops and other industries, and his annual income is not low.A quarter of this income will be given to his friends in the court.There weren't actually many things those people would do for him. They were basically just conveniences and easy things to do, but that was enough.

With such a background, Li Hong doesn't have to be afraid of much when doing things.Among the rich men in Sifang City, he can be said to be the craziest one.

Full, warm and lustful, not to mention such a rich person.Li Hong is 48 years old this year, but the oldest of his eight concubines is only 27 years old.

The reason for this is simple: 28 years old is a watershed for him.No matter how beautiful she is, when she reaches the age of 28, she will be kicked out and then marry a new one.

It can be said that in this regard, what he cares about is not just lust, but power and control.

Jiang Li sat in a nearby teahouse, looked at the house of Rich Man Li Hong, and listened to the discussions of the people around him.If you want to find out something, a place like this where many people are talking about it is the best place.

There were several people behind him, and they happened to be discussing the news that Li Hong was going to marry a concubine again.

"Didn't he just get married last year?"

"If a person is rich, he can marry him every day."

"You just came to Sifang City last year, so you don't know. Rich Man Li always has eight concubines, and those who get tired of them will be kicked out directly."

"Isn't your life more prosperous than the emperor's?"

"You can do it if you have so much money."

"What is the origin of the person he is marrying this time?"

"You've asked the right person now. I heard about my brother who works for Rich Man Li. The person I want to marry this time is a man who sold his body to bury his parents."

"Want to marry this kind of rich man Li? Shouldn't he be accepted as a maid?"

"Don't you understand this? She is beautiful. Although she is poor, she is naturally beautiful. And she was not born to work in the fields. It is said that she works in the fields every day, and her hands are not thick, and they don't even have calluses. No matter how you look at it, he doesn’t look like a farmer.”

"Then you can buy her as a maid, right? Once you become a maid, don't you still belong to Rich Man Li? He can do whatever he wants."

"So you know too little. That girl has a fierce temper. Rich Man Li knew that if she bought her to be a maid, he would never be allowed to touch her, and he would commit suicide if she didn't know. So when she bought her, Rich Man Li made it clear As I said, I want to buy her as a concubine. How can anyone else dare to go against Li Cai's lead singer? No one dares to challenge her, so Li Cai succeeds. "

Jiang Li took a sip of tea and shook his head.

Jiang Li had already read Li Hong's information on the mountain.She knew everything the public knew and didn't know.So in her opinion, this Li Hong just wanted to use this public way to explain to outsiders that Wu Xiaoman belonged to him.In this matter, this is not a matter of mutual consent, but Mr. Li is unilaterally promoting his power.

At this time, Jiang Li heard those people still discussing this matter.

"And when you are a maid, other people may touch you. This is something that Rich Man Li will never allow."

"It's not necessarily reliable to be a concubine. It's not like you can't run away with others."

"Rich Man Li's concubine really didn't dare. He was the only one who drove her away, not anyone else."

"When you mentioned this, I remembered it. A few years ago, a concubine from the wealthy man Wang's family was taken away by an opera singer."

"Did you catch him later?"

"The actor also ran away from the troupe, and the two of them eloped. Mr. Wang was furious at the troupe, but he couldn't really do anything. He just found someone to beat them up and then let them go."

Hearing this, Jiang Li smiled slightly.

An idea came to her mind.
