Late Tang

Wang Liang was still replaying the scene when he met Li Jing just now, and Li Jing's deep eyes were like two deep wells that could not be seen to the bottom, making him understand that Li Jing must have guessed what was behind his back. Dirty tricks.In any case, Li Jing has been sentenced to be a prisoner, and he has also been imprisoned in the dungeon of Junzhen.At most, there is only one year left to live, and he will be hanged next autumn.

But he couldn't feel happy at all in his heart, he didn't even feel the pleasure after revenge, instead, he was a little uneasy by Li Jing's last gaze.

Wang Liang stood alone in front of the warehouse, looking at the soldiers and civilians coming and going to the warehouse to carry things in thought.At this time, the obese Zhang Kuguan walked over with a swaying step.

"Wang Er, what are you thinking? Tell me, can the Li family really afford the money to protect that kid?" Official Zhang's name is Zhang Hong. It's such a fat job to manage the warehouse.

"Oh, it's a senior official." Seeing that he was his master, Wang Liang hurriedly bowed and saluted.He bowed his waist and took two steps back, following behind Zhang Hong.

Today Wang Liang went shopping with Fatty Zhang, and happened to meet Li Jing who was carrying grain out of the city.He hated the Li family for a long time, and when he saw Li Jing, he had the idea of ​​humiliating him, so he told Fatty Zhang about it.Originally, he just planned to use force to buy Li Jing to disgust Li Jing, but unexpectedly later saw that Li Jing refused to accept it.At first, this matter was ignored, but he didn't expect that he saw a carp in the fish, and then a murderous scheme came to his mind, and he quietly told Fatty Zhang that he wanted to use this to take down Li Jing and extort a sum of money Come.Fatty Zhang is the best person who is greedy for money. Hearing that there is an opportunity to make some extra money, he will never let it go.

"Senior officials, the Li family has lost three leading men over the years, and now Li Jing is the only man in the Li family. Although the Li family has fallen, there are still [-] acres of good land in the family, and there are also mulberry fields. Ten mu. In order to get Li Jing out, the women of the Li family would definitely be willing to lose their entire family. Although tens of mu of land is not much, it is still a small fortune."

"That's right, that's right. A small amount makes a lot, and a little amount makes a lot. Sixty acres of land is worth a shot. This matter, I will leave it to you. If the matter is done beautifully, I will reward you at that time." Two acres of mulberry fields." Fatty Zhang said happily, in a good mood.These days, it's okay for him to guard the warehouse to get some oil and water, but after all, it's not as safe as buying land.

It was almost dusk, and the women of the Li family did not wait for Li Jing to return, but instead waited for Blacksmith Wang and Xiao Shitou.Xiao Shitou and his son brought back a shocking news, and the shocked Li family widows and girls were as pale as paper, crying.The Li family has lost three heads of the family over the years. If something happens to Li Jing again, then this family of widows will really die.

The wrinkled blacksmith Wang squatted on the ground, sighing continuously.Last time, his eldest son was planning to build a house next year to get married, but he took the Li family brothers to save seaweed. Not only did his own son die, but three other young men from the same village also had accidents, leaving only the third boy from the Li family to escape. Passed a catastrophe.It has not been two months since this happened, today the youngest son entrusted Li Jing with two strings of fish, and in the end he was dragged into prison and sentenced to prison. The Wang family owed a lot to the Li family.In front of all the women in the Li family, he didn't even dare to raise his head.

At this moment, Wang Liang entered the courtyard of the Li family with his mother and younger sister.

"Auntie, we have also heard about Saburo, don't worry, there will always be a way." Wang Liang's mother persuaded.

Han Shi has completely lost his mind at this time, this woman, no matter how strong she is, seems to have been pulled out of her muscles and bones at this time, her eyes are lifeless, and her face is lifeless.Hearing Wang Liang's mother's persuasion, she turned around quickly, and cried to her family, Mrs. Liu: "You came to see our family's jokes, right? Look, look, you are satisfied now. I The man from the Li family is dead, so please be happy."

Wang Xiaomei said anxiously: "Auntie, when my brother heard about this in the town, he immediately ran home. My mother was also very anxious when she heard about it. How could she come to see a joke?"

Wang Xiaoshitou rushed up suddenly, grabbed Wang Liang by the collar and shouted: "I heard from the people in the town that you stopped Brother Xiucai from buying fish today, and that's the last thing that happened. Tell me, did you make it happen?" bad?"

"Aren't you just running errands under Zhang Kuguan, who harmed Saburo? Tell me, is this your bad idea?" Blacksmith Wang also hurriedly asked.Although Li Jing was not his son, but something happened to Li Jing, he was more anxious than anyone else, and felt more guilty than anyone else.

When the Queen Mother heard this, she turned around and slapped Wang Liang hard on the face.It is true that the Wang family and the Li family had a festival, but it was only a private festival.If because of this, she plots against the third boy of the Li family and kills him, she will never forgive such a thing.If this is the case, then the Wang family will never even think about gaining a foothold here.

"Aniang, others don't believe me, don't you even believe in your son? Today I was the one who dragged my third brother to buy fish, but I bought fish for money. I had already negotiated with Saburo to buy a bunch of fish. Later, Kuguan Zhang suddenly asked for both strings, and only gave one money. It was the third brother who refused, so the treasury official turned his back on him and dragged the third brother into the yamen with the carp incident. I had been talking to him before Zhang Kuguan begged for love for a long time, and finally persuaded Zhang Kuguan to let the third brother go, I didn't even have time to drink my saliva, so I ran back to report the letter."

When Mrs. Han heard that Ken let Li Jing go, she became excited, grabbed Wang Liang's hand and hurriedly asked, "Ken let Saburo come back from the town? Then why hasn't anyone disappeared yet?"

"Auntie, although Zhang Kuguan agreed to let the third brother go, he has a request." Wang Liang looked serious, but in his heart he was walking step by step according to the plan he had planned long ago.

"If you have any requirements, you just say, no matter what, we will find a way."

Wang Liang intentionally hesitated to speak for a long time, and then said: "Everyone knows that the officials in the town have already sentenced the third brother to be a marquis, and we will wait until the official documents from the town, Wu, are sent to the court department office for review. Even if it is a certainty, the sentence will be executed as soon as autumn arrives. Now the official document is still in the town and has not been submitted, but there is not much time. Zhang Kuguan's brother-in-law is Cui Zhenjiang, and everything in the town is said by him It’s the final decision. As long as the official document is released before it is submitted to the court, then the person can be released directly.”

Having said that, Wang Liang stopped talking.

Although he stopped talking, everyone understood the meaning behind it.Zhang Kuguan sent the person to the prison first, and now that he releases the person, he must not let him go in vain.

Han Shi bit her lip and said, "How much does Kuguan Zhang want to release him?"

"A hundred acres of fertile land."

Everyone exclaimed, the Li family only has 140 mu of land in total, even if the 40 mu of mulberry fields are counted, there is still a shortfall of 00 mu.During the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, land was precious, and one mu of fertile land could be sold for hundreds of guan.However, as in Tang Dynasty tonight, the heavier the land tax, the lower the land price.But an acre of good land costs at least ten pennies.Forty mu of land is worth [-] yuan. If it is replaced by rice, it is [-] buckets of rice.Not to mention the current famine year, even when the Li family was at its peak, the family had to be destroyed.

The Li family is just selling everything, even if they sell the house, they won't be able to raise so much money.

"Sister-in-law of the Li family, this is all the old man's fault. If the old man hadn't asked him to bring the fish, it would be fine. My family still has twenty acres of land, so my sister-in-law can take it." Blacksmith Wang has been working outside for many years, and his family also bought Twenty acres of land.

"No, you and your family depend on the [-] mu of land for food and living. Without the land, how will your family live." Han shook his head and refused.

Wang Liang's mother gritted her teeth and said, "Sister-in-law, my family still has [-] acres of land, you can use it to rescue Sanlang first."

"Including these are exactly [-] mu of land." Wang Liang said on the side.

Han Shi gritted her teeth: "Uncle Wang, you have a lot of acquaintances in the town, see if you can help me and ask if anyone is willing to buy my yard. As long as there is money, I will sell it."

The seagrass triple compound yard of the Li family has only been built for 50 years, and the seagrass house is no different from ordinary thatched or brick houses.A house like the Li family, as long as it is well recommended, can be handed down to the family for 200 years.Such a nine-room courtyard house is only 50 years old, and the original price is quite a lot.When the Li family built the house, it cost almost 20 yuan including the land. 20 yuan is two hundred strings, worth twenty acres of land.But now it is urgent to sell, and it is considered the best if it can be sold for [-] to [-] yuan.

"Auntie, this house is the ancestral property of the Li family. After the ancestral land is sold, you can buy it back, but where do you live after the ancestral house is sold? Auntie, let's get together, and we have a hundred acres of land. Let's go and get the third brother first. Keep it out, so that Ye Changmeng won't have any further problems. Let's talk about other things later." Wang Liang said with a look of urgency and righteousness.

Han family didn't want to accept the land of Wang Tiejiang and Wang Liang's family, but at this moment he was concerned about his son, but the family couldn't come up with more money.She had no choice but to nod her head, but she didn't know that the Li family was falling into Wang Liang's trap step by step.

ps: Come and see, the best seagrass courtyard house only sells one recommendation ticket!
