Zhuang Rou went back to find the businesswomen and the others, but she did not stop for a long time and took everyone to the county government overnight.

When I passed by the next county town, I bought a few servants and maids, and it looked decent.

Anbei County has not sent anyone to chase him. Maybe it is investigating who is so powerful that he can kill a master like the boss.

As for the few women missing in the bandit village, even if someone finds out, it won’t be strange. All the bandits are dead, how can women not run away?

Zhuang Rou did not walk with them, but followed them from afar to avoid suspicion. As long as she secretly protected them from any accidents on the road, she would be fine.

The group successfully arrived at Qingyuan Prefecture, the county prefecture of Hanhai County.

When I bought a house and moved in, I asked the housekeeper to find a woman, a maid and a servant. With the help of the businesswoman, everything went smoothly with money.

She placed the things seized by Zhuang Rou in the businesswoman's office. If they were sold for money, they would be 30% or 70% off.

But the money is also placed here and I will take it when she can use it.

The current silver was taken to the money house by Zhuang Rou, and all of them were exchanged for silver notes, which was more than 70,000 taels. At that time, the money house was shocked.

Just because her dress is too eye-catching and intimidating, the money house dares not say much, so she will accept the money first.

After staying in Qingyuan Prefecture for half a month, Zhuang Rou saw that the merchants had already settled the place and sent the Buddha to the west, she climbed over the wall into the mansion and said goodbye to them, so she left here to go to several counties with severe locust plague.

…………

It turns cooler as autumn begins, but I meet autumn tigers again, and the cooler weather is getting hotter again.

The smell of mass graves was also stronger, attracting a large number of black and fat crows.

Zhuang Rou covered her face with a facial scarf and stood by a pit, looking at the dozen or so bodies that had just been thrown down.

They were all those who died at her hands yesterday. Apart from the evildoers who didn't open their eyes to seek trouble with him, they were people sent by the court.

There were nearly a hundred corpses in the pit, either because of hunger or fighting. Most of them had rotten and emitted a suffocating stench.

When the pit is filled, you must cover it with soil, otherwise throwing the body around can easily cause cholera.

She looked up and looked into the distance. The hillside was covered with densely packed with straw sheds. The dirty and weak victims were lying or sitting, and bored looking for fleas from their hair or their clothes.

It has been four months since Zhuang Rou left Qingyuan Prefecture, but she has entered the county that has been plagued by locusts and cannot leave.

All the money on her body was replaced with food, and she could not last long after adding bran to the porridge soup, and soon she lost the money.

But the victims knew that there would be food after following her, and no one would leave, and the one who would drag her son and daughter to follow her.

Behind him were hungry victims, in front of him there were profiteers who hoarded grain and sold at high prices, and in the future, the government did not open warehouses and released grain, but sent people to drive away the victims at the city gate. It seemed that the disaster had never happened and continued to live a peaceful life in the city.

In this case, Zhuang Rou took action, she robbed the grain store and went door to door to find wealthy households to collect grain.

Not many people took the initiative to give food, but she was convinced with her fists.

Under the influence of Zhuang Rou, the Qingliang disaster victims, who were already strong in the people, began to grab grain at their desperate situation. Like wildfires burning, grain bandits of all sizes appeared everywhere.

Although Zhuang Rou did not form gangs and became grain bandits, she was still alone, but because of her fierceness, she was considered by the victims and the government to be the most cruel and largest grain bandit.

The wanted order is paid for money, and the reward has reached 800 taels. If you raise it directly, you can add another 500 taels.

Many people wanted a bounty, but they all turned into carrion in the mud, the deliciousness of the crow, just like the corpse that was thrown down from the pit now.

The gathering point on the distant hillside has begun to take shape, and Zhuang Rou stayed here for more than a month. The grain bandits here have not yet been in the way, but have quietly joined hands with the government to get rid of her.

The temptation of nearly a thousand taels of silver was quite large, enough for a few people to share the spoils and move into the county government to settle down, living a life of having no worries about food and clothing.

"Sister Zhuang, Sister Zhuang!" A half-old man ran over and shouted excitedly, "Sister Zhuang, Liu Hu and the others caught a few people, it seemed that there were scholars. Liu Hu and the others wanted to kill people, but that man still wanted to reason with them."

"Liu Hu doesn't know a big word, so what can you understand? It just seems that the man has somewhere to come. He asked me to call Sister Zhuang over and take a look. If you have a lot of knowledge, you will definitely understand it."

Liu Hu is a grain bandit in this shanty town. He brought about twenty outlaws and went to harass the surrounding villages and towns all day long to grab grain.

Someone actually wanted to reason with the grain bandits. Zhuang Rou felt that it must be those literati who believed in the truth and did not have to worry about food and clothing. She was going to influence the grain bandits after being sucked.

There was not such a person before, but he was killed a few times before he calmed down a lot, but there were always some people who were not afraid of death, just to come and give him a head.

Zhuang Rou took out four Shaobings and threw them to the person who helped her carry the body. After the few people took the Shaobings for a long time, they hoped that there would be such a good thing next time.

The boy looked at the sesame cake in their hands with envy and swallowed.

"Let's go, you're indispensable." Zhuang Rou patted his shoulder and said.

The boy laughed embarrassedly and quickly took her back.

When the two of them rushed back, they saw a carriage parked there, surrounded by grain bandits. From a distance, they heard Liu Hu shouting fiercely: "I want you to be a military advisor for me, to give you face. Don't tell me whether there is anything or not. If you don't agree, try the big knife in my hand."

"We are just passing by, you insisted on blocking us and not allowing us to leave. Besides, you won't be able to use any military advisors." A young man's voice sounded.

Liu Hu immediately shouted sarcastically: "Hmm?"

"Do you kid think you're so impatient to live a life of death? We have so many people, if you dare, you should try it."

The grain bandit holding the weapon raised his hand and shouted, with a loud noise, and the young man held back his anger.

"What are you doing? Are you a grain truck or a dog official? If not, do you really think you are a bandit?" Zhuang Rou walked over with a gun, and all the bandits immediately shut up.

Liu Hu smiled awkwardly and said, "Sister Zhuang misunderstood. We didn't have a disaster. We just saw that there were only a few of them and dared to rush on the road. I was afraid that something might happen to them on the road, so I stopped me and gave me a few words of advice."

"There is a gentleman in the car, who seems very powerful. I'm just thinking about whether I can invite him to be a military advisor and make some ideas."

Zhuang Rou was too lazy to pay attention to his little thoughts. She thought she was the bandit leader and wanted to be a military advisor to become a big shot?

She said in a deep voice: "If you are the only one who needs a military advisor, I'm afraid you don't want to rob the people."

"It's all a misunderstanding, so I'll leave the person to Sister Zhuang. Brothers, let's go." Liu Hu explained hurriedly, and then called on the grain bandits to escape quickly, and no one dared to challenge her.

As long as Zhuang Rou is present, in addition to robbing the grain of the profiteer, she will kill people if she finds that someone has done something to robbers.

No one could beat her, and everyone did not dare to resist except obediently, but as long as she left, the grain bandits who tasted the sweetness would turn into bandits and disrupt the peace of the neighbors.

Not to mention disaster relief, the government was too busy to suppress bandits. If one was destroyed and another group was created, the food disaster could not be solved, and the world would be in peace.

Seeing that Liu Hu had taken away, Zhuang Rou looked at the four guards guarding beside the carriage and said, "You guys go quickly. Next time you meet a grain bandit, just kill a few to establish their authority. Why are you still stupid enough to follow me?"

After saying that, she planned to leave. There were too many people seeking death, so she could persuade her at most.

At this time, someone in the car spoke, "Princess Zhuang, please stay, I came to find you."

Zhuang Rou was a little surprised and stopped and looked at the carriage curiously.

At this time, the curtain was lifted up, revealing a middle-aged man.

She looked like a knowledgeable literati, but she still felt that this person looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it.

"What's wrong with sir? Have we seen it?" she asked curiously. After all, she called out to the princess very politely.

The middle-aged man laughed and touched his beard and said, "I have a relationship with the princess, in the tea shed beside the official road outside Anbei County."

After he reminded him, Zhuang Rou remembered that they were the people she drove away in the tea shed.

She wouldn't naively think that this man is here to thank her for saving him from the bandits.

Although he didn't know the purpose of the trip, Zhuang Rou was not afraid of these people, so he said, "If you don't dislike me, please go to the humble house to rest for a while."

"Then I'll disturb you." The middle-aged man responded with a smile, asking the guard to drive the carriage to follow Zhuang Rou.

Then they and his group arrived at an abandoned land temple and stopped, watching Zhuang Rou walk to the dilapidated gate and said to them: "It's this, Mr. Mingtang please come in."

On the way here, she had already heard the guards' introduction that the middle-aged man was called Mr. Mingtang, and seemed to be a very prestigious gentleman in Qingliang Kingdom.

As for how famous he is, the guards look proud on their faces, but they do not say it to show off.

Unexpectedly, she actually lived in a dilapidated temple. Mr. Mingtang smiled horrified, got off the carriage and walked in.

The land temple is small, but it has all the internal organs.

The straw bed was pressed flat, the broken tables and chairs were wiped clean, and the mud bricks on the floor were even cleaned spotlessly.

A fire pit is set up in the middle of the temple, which is usually used to boil water and cook.

How careful and clean this is enough to clean the land temple like this, not only can you kill people, but you can also manage your family, Mr. Mingtang thought secretly.

There were a few shiny stones beside the fire pit. Zhuang Rou called them to sit down, lit firewood, carried a pot out to fetch water, and put it on the fire as if they wanted to burn some water to entertain guests.

At this time, three pale and thin women appeared at the door, looking at Zhuang Juru uneasyly, "Sister Zhuang, are you still satisfied with cleaning today?"

"No, you can continue to come tomorrow." Zhuang Rou smiled, got up and walked to a large stone more than half a person tall in the corner, pushing the stone away with one hand, revealing a small pit.

She stood aside and said, "Each person has a bowl of beans, beat yourself."

There were two pockets in the half-person-high pit, one of which was open, revealing some soybeans, and a bowl was placed on it.

The women took turns to go down into the pit and beat a bowl of beans. If one of them rolled down, they would show heartache on their faces.

Then carefully put it in a cloth bag, hid it in your arms and hugged it before thanking you for leaving.

Zhuang Rou stared at Douzi for a few glances, took out a small cloth bag the size of a palm from the pit, and then returned the stone to its place.

Everyone didn't say anything. Although they lived in a dilapidated temple and wanted to exchange food for servants, they were a little heartless, but it was normal for a young lady who was used to living a wealthy life to not be able to do these jobs.

"These women in these families have no men, but they still bring children. They can't even grab the bark to tear the tree bark, so I asked them to clean up and stir-fry beans for the bowl of beans every day." Zhuang Rou sat down and smiled, and opened the small cloth bag, which contained some tea leaves.

"After eating dried beans, you can save 20 or 30 pills a day, and save a few handfuls a month."

She grabbed the tea leaves and threw them into the pot, so that even if there are fewer tea leaves, the taste will be heavier.

"But sooner or later, I will find a man to live with me unless I make an appointment to be a grain bandit."

Zhuang Rou threw two pieces of firewood into the fire pit and asked with a kind look: "I wonder why sir is looking for me?"

Mr. Mingtang smiled faintly and said, "Come for Brother Order."
