Chapter 45
When a group of people entered Luyi and put on a posture of not leaving, the gentry in the city could not turn a blind eye.

They were afraid that these bandits would come to rob again, so they hid one by one and did not dare to come out. They wanted to avoid the limelight and waited for the other party to leave before they came out. passed.

At this time, the squire heard the bandit soldiers read the Announcement to the People, and saw them take the initiative to clean up the ruins in the city. He felt that this group of bandits seemed to be a little different, so after making up his mind, he came to the county government to ask for an interview, and wanted to find out about the situation.

After all, they want to live in Luyi, no matter what the bandits do, they can't escape.

Second Brother Gao adjusted his appearance and came out in a hurry, only to see some old men standing outside the yamen, looking a little uneasy.Looking at the vicissitudes of life, Brother Gao walked over with a kind smile on his face. The old men immediately fell silent when they saw him.

"Elders, I am Gao Yihuan, the captain of Luyi County." Second brother Gao walked up to them and cupped his hands, "You guys came at a good time. I just arrived in Luyi and I wanted to know about the situation in Luyi, so everyone came here gone."

The second elder brother turned sideways, stretched out his hand and said, "Everyone, let's talk inside."

Now that he had come to the door, the old men had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter the county government office, and followed Gao Yihuan into the lobby.

At this time, Gao Yihuan sat down on the main seat, asked Zhao Zhuzi to bring them seats, and served them coarse tea. After they sat down, he said, "These must all be respected elders in Luyi County. I don’t know how many people came to see me, do you have any questions?”

Several elders in the hall saw that Gao Yihuan treated them more politely, and after a while of embarrassment, an elder came out and cupped his hands and said: "My lord, this old man's surname is Yang, and he has the accent of a captain, but he is from Kaifeng?"

Gao Yihuan thought that the old man wanted to ask him something else, such as how he planned to treat them, but he didn't expect him to ask such an irrelevant question.

The second elder brother was stunned for a while, but then he seemed to understand something, so he said in very authentic Henan dialect: "I am indeed from Chenliu County, Kaifeng Prefecture, and we are all township party members, so what do you guys think?" Whatever you say, you can speak frankly.”

"It really is from Henan!" Hearing Gao Yihuan's words, the old men who were a little cramped in the hall suddenly became more active, "I said that the thief who came this time~ Dajun~ is different from last time~"

After hearing Gao Yihuan's words, the old man Yang seemed to be encouraged immediately, and asked again: "Then Mr. Li is a subordinate of Mr. Li of Qi County?"

Gao Yihuan came to understand that the people from Shaanxi had harmed Henan too much, but Li Yan's reputation in the Chuangjun was not bad.

These people saw that he was from Henan, and that after entering the city, they did not rob, but comforted the people, so they took him as Li Yan's.

Since they think so, the second brother must belong to Li Yan.

At this time, the second elder brother smiled and did not deny it, and Henan said it more authentically, "My father is indeed Mr. Li's staff."

When everyone heard that it was really Li Yan's person, they felt a lot more at ease. The old man finally got to the point, "Sir, this time you will be stationed in Luyi? If you stay here for a long time, you don't know the money~"

Gao Yihuan said that he belonged to Li Yan, but Li Yan was also a thief after all, but he was better than the Shaanxi gang, and they were worried that Gao Yihuan would continue to search for them.

"It's a long-term station. From now on, I will manage the military and civil affairs of Luyi." Gao Yihuan knew their worries, so he simply said so that they would not think too much, "I know your worries, you can rest assured, I am from Henan, and I Staying here is to protect Luyi and prevent others from harming you."

None of the old men present believed what he said, but they all had smiles on their faces.

Second brother Gao continued: "The captain is stationed here, so you don't have to think about it. From now on, you will pay taxes as usual. I will not ask for anything else. I will cancel all the other three rates. What do you think?"

Chuangjun has a salary system, and those of them who fall into the hands of Chuangjun will not lose their skin, and even their lives will be lost.

These old men were all a little surprised when they heard that as long as they paid taxes normally, they would be exempted from three salaries and not allowed to contribute to their salaries.

"Your Majesty, this is really true." The old men couldn't believe it. This group of bandits was better than the officers and soldiers, which always made people feel unreal.

"Everyone is a township party, what did I lie to you for?" Gao Yihuan patted his chest and said, "You have heard the announcement I made people read in the city, so it will be considered as three chapters of the contract between me and you. I will only collect normal taxes. If I Those who dare to do evil, dare to blackmail, you can come to me, and I will make decisions for you, but you must abide by the rules I set."

Several people heard what he said, although they didn't dare to believe it completely, but at least they were better than those who put the knife on their necks and grabbed them directly.

"So, it's really a blessing for us Luyi people!" Several old men reluctantly took a reassurance when they saw Brother Gao's attitude, and cupped their hands and said: "Master Captain can restrain his subordinates. The kindness of the people in Luyi."

"If my lord can achieve this step, then if there is any use for us, please just ask."

Gao Yihuan really needs to find them for something. Right now the city is in ruins, and if you want to restore Luyi, you can't rely on him alone.

"I originally wanted to settle down first, and then send someone to invite you to come over for a discussion. Today, you actually came, so let me say a few things first."

The old men just said some polite words at the end, they didn't expect that Second Brother Gao really had something to tell them, the expressions on everyone's faces froze, and they became a little embarrassed.

Second Brother Gao continued: "I was ordered to guard Luyi this time, and I will be stationed for a long time. The most important thing right now is to restore Luyi, but I don't have any materials in hand, and we need everyone to work together."

Isn't this still going to be robbed?When the old men heard this, their expressions turned ugly again.

They robbed them once before and took away most of their family wealth. If they still ask them for supplies, they will really go bankrupt.

Gao Yihuan saw the expressions of several people, and hurriedly continued: "Don't get me wrong, I just want to ask if there are any merchants among you? If so, I hope you can purchase some supplies from other places as soon as possible, and I will pay you Buy, the price is absolutely fair, let's revitalize Luyi's business first."

Several people heard what he said, and their faces turned from cloudy to clear. Just now, the old man Yang cupped his hands and said: "My lord, I have a few shops, but the current situation in Luyi City, even if I reopen, I am afraid that no one will buy them. what."

Luyi was ransacked once, and most of the people in the city couldn't afford money, so the business couldn't be restored.

Regarding this point, Brother Gao still has some ideas of stimulating the economy, he smiled, "There are [-] soldiers living in the city, and hundreds of family members will come over later, I will pay these soldiers, it depends Do you have the ability to make money from them?"

If these soldiers are willing to give money honestly, it is really a chance, but trust has not been established between these old men and Brother Gao, and they are not sure whether these bandits will buy and sell by force, or even not give money directly.

The old man Yang was a little worried, but he couldn't say it out of his mouth, so he could only say: "The old man will try to bring some goods back."

Brother Gao nodded in satisfaction, "In addition, I plan to clean up the ruins in the city and re-plan the city. A few help organize the people, and I will take care of all those who participate in the reconstruction."

At that moment, the second elder brother spoke a few more words with a few people, managed to calm the elders, and sent them outside the yamen himself.

After dealing with this matter, the second brother walked back to the yard in a good mood.

At this time, he was standing in the yard, but a child held a wooden knife and stabbed his butt hard, causing him to grin his teeth and turn his head away in pain.

The second brother looked back and saw that it was the little boy Wu Shizhao had rescued, stabbing him with a wooden knife.

This kid looked spoiled and spoiled, he was not afraid of anything, probably he had never been beaten before, when he saw his second brother looking back at him, he still poked his second brother with the wooden knife.

The second brother was furious at once, wishing he could slap him to death, snatched his wooden knife, then knelt down and pinched his tender face vigorously, and said viciously: "Hey, you kid, you look alright, but what do I see?" It's so annoying~"

The second brother was so strong that he pinched the child so badly that the child burst into tears in an instant with a "wow", so loud that the whole yard could hear it.

As soon as he cried, the second brother became a little at a loss, and at this moment, the door of a room behind him was opened, and Liang Yizhang leaned against the door with a pale face, crying at Gao Yihuan with tears in his eyes, "let go my son~"

Second Brother Gao heard the words and glanced at Liang Yizhang who was rushing over, and then at the deformed child, his face couldn't help being stunned, and he quickly let go...
