"Sir, I dug out a very beautiful porcelain from the field a year and a half ago. The eldest son of the Liu family knew that he brought people over and snatched the porcelain directly. He didn't give me a single or two silver. You must make the decision for me."

"The eldest son of the Liu family, snatch one of the porcelains. I'll write it down. Our People's Army will definitely make the decision for you. Whoever you have to be wronged can tell you."

As soon as the official finished speaking, an ordinary person rushed to say, "Sir, I have an injustice. I was walking on the street half a month ago and was beaten by two guards of the Zhao Mansion for no reason. The place where I was beaten still hurts."

"Sir, my family sells vegetables. The county magistrate's family has been buying vegetables from me before, but the money I give every time I buy vegetables is not enough."

Only five ordinary people actually said that there were more than ten wrongs. The farmers outside the city envied those who lived in the city, but they didn't know that there were more wealthy families in the city. The ordinary people living in the city had to be careful on weekdays. Maybe a word would bring a beating, but they had no place to seek justice.

Officials write down these grievances one by one, even the names of the people. After returning, they summarize the grievances and can be used as evidence to search some wealthy families.

After remembering the grievances, the officials said to these ordinary people: "Please ask you something. Our People's Army has just occupied Haifeng County, and many people don't trust us. Can you help our People's Army tell others what we just said? If they have grievances, they can come and tell me that my colleagues and I will stay here for a while."

"Sir, this is simple, leave it to me."

"I can do it too, sir."

...

All five ordinary people were willing to help, some of which were meant to make officials pay attention to them and be able to take control of their grievances.

Simply put, it is a benefit fee. How could it be for ordinary people to do things without giving benefits? Of course, this is the case of the Ming Dynasty government, and the People's Army would not have such a situation.

Accepting the task, the five ordinary people took action, knocked on the doors of their neighbors, and told others about the People's Army. Not long after, new ordinary people came over and told the officials about their grievances. The officials did not care about what the ordinary people had not come before, and directly wrote down the grievances of the people.

"Oh, I forgot one thing. Are there blacksmiths around you, carpenters?" The official who was busy recording the wrongdoing patted his head. How could he forget about finding blacksmiths and carpenters like this?

"Sir, we don't have blacksmiths here, we have two carpenters." An ordinary person replied.

"Carpenters are fine, please take them to the carpenter's house. Our People's Army has something to do when we find a carpenter."

"Sir, I understand. Let's lead the way for the two soldiers." After saying that, the ordinary people led the two People's Army soldiers to the homes of the two carpenters.

It is important to search for wealthy families and unite the people, and it is also important to find blacksmiths and carpenters. The People's Army should find blacksmiths and carpenters to send them to Hutou Village to increase the output of tiger-headed guns and tiger-headed cannons.

Only by increasing the output of tiger-headed guns and tiger-headed cannons can the scale of the firearms troops be rapidly expanded, and the firearms troops are the main force of the People's Army to fight against the Ming army.

It was a little troublesome to bring the blacksmith carpenters from Haifeng County and Yong'an County to Hutou Village. The People's Army was a rebel for the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty was powerful, and the blacksmith carpenters would not easily think that the People's Army could overthrow the Ming Dynasty.

In turn, the Ming Dynasty army surrounded the People's Army, and the blacksmith and carpenters who were employed by the People's Army should also be a member of the People's Army and be the target of being encircled.

In addition, Hutou Village is far away and is still in the mountains. If you just use money to hire blacksmiths and carpenters, there will not be many blacksmiths and carpenters willing to accept employment.

Therefore, the People's Army decided to take measures to recruit blacksmith carpenters in Haifeng County and Yong'an County. The recruitment means coercion, which means to force the blacksmith carpenter to take away regardless of whether the blacksmith carpenter is willing or not.

Of course, the People's Army did not have the idea of ​​letting blacksmiths and carpenters work for the People's Army for nothing, and would give them relatively high rewards.

In the past, the People's Army did not have much money in its hands. Now, as the People's Army searched for wealthy families, money and food were things that could be paid.

You should know that most of the wealth in a city is in the hands of wealthy families. At least two-thirds of the wealthy families in Haifeng County and Yong'an County will be investigated, and the wealthy families who exploit the people generally have more wealth than those who do good. As long as the wealthy families who do evil inside and outside the county town are searched, the People's Army will not be short of money and food in a short period of time.

Not all wealthy families are easily captured like the Jia family when facing the People's Army. No matter whether the People's Army is a rioter or a bandit, wealthy families know that the People's Army will definitely attack them when they look back.

The city can no longer be out. Some wealthy families join forces with other wealthy families to fight stubbornly. Some wealthy families want to surrender to the enemy and save their lives. Some wealthy families are stepping up time to bury the wealth in the mansion, or let their children change into ragged clothes and send them to the homes of ordinary people.

With the arrival of the People's Army's queuing team, the battle broke out.

"Take the ladder over and go into the wall."

Bang! Bang!

The tiger-headed gun fired, and a lead bullet knocked down a large-scale guard who was resisting.

"Put down your weapons, those who surrender will not kill them! Those who resist will be killed without mercy!"

"kill!"

No matter how much the wealthy family resisted, with the absolute advantage of the number of people, there were sharp firearms like tiger head guns, and the rebels trapped in the mansion were wiped out one by one.

The sound of shouting and killing, and the sound of tiger-headed guns firing spread to the mansion that had not been guided by the People's Army, which scared a lot of people trembled.

In the main hall of Xu Mansion, the middle-aged head of the Xu family was sitting in the main seat, his face full of sorrow, but the crying of his wife, concubine and daughter made him very upset.

"Whatever you cry, just give me peace of mind." The head of the Xu family roared, and the whole hall quieted down. The delicate women's eyes were crying, but they did not dare to cry out loud.

If you calm down, you can vaguely hear the shouts and shouts of killing in the Lin Mansion on the left.

"Dad, will we die?" asked the youngest daughter, who was most favored by the head of the Xu family, cried.

The head of the Xu family did not answer his younger daughter's words, and he didn't know whether he would die. If he resisted the Lin Mansion, everyone would probably die.

The head of the Xu family thought about how to make the family survive, at least until the government army wiped out or drove away these rebels. It doesn’t matter if they lose some money. If the money is gone, they can make money again, and if the people are gone, they will be gone.

"When the rebels come, I will give away most of them. I hope that doing so will prevent the rebels from attacking me, Xu family."
