Chapter 92 Go to Shandong to ask for a wife! (Fourth update!)

The newspaper Kong Qingrong picked up was actually similar to the previous newspaper. They both listed all the bad things done by Yan Shenggong's mansion in the first page of the article, and then mocked Yan Shenggong's house openly and covertly.

Shenggong's Mansion disgraced Confucius and mocked Yan Shenggong's Mansion as the leader in surrendering to foreign races in the world.

Anyway, he just took over the job of Duke Yansheng’s house and exposed all the bad things that Duke Yansheng did.

The difference is the second page of this newspaper. The article on the second page states that Confucius is still a Confucian saint. Even if everyone in Yanshenggong's house deserves death, Confucius' incense will still not be cut off, because the entire Meng Lianggu

The rebel group will honor Confucius in the form of a public sacrifice.

In addition, Zhu Jinsong, the leader of Meng Lianggu, also published an article publicly, stating that the Meng Lianggu Rebel Group will thoroughly implement the Confucius spirit of teaching without distinction and vigorously promote the sociological construction work in the areas ruled by the Meng Lianggu Rebel Group.

At the same time, Zhu Jinsong said that he would open Yanshengong Mansion to the public as a tourist attraction, allowing people from all over the world to come to Confucius to worship Confucius, and also allow people from all over the world to visit Yanshengong Mansion.

In short, it is murder and heart-breaking.

Then, just two days after taking office, Mr. Kong Qingrong was brought to the county government office in Qufu County by Zhu Jinsong's Shacaimen.

What made Kong Qingrong even more desperate for Mr. Kong was that because Zhu Jinsong, the rebel leader, arrived too quickly, and his own housekeeper who was sent to Zhu Jinsong’s side did not get any news back, so that Mr. Kong

All the food, gold, silver and jewelry used to threaten Zhu Jinsong fell into Zhu Jinsong's hands.

The Northern Sect of Yanshenggong Mansion died out.

After obtaining the gold and silver jewelry accumulated by Yan Shenggong's Mansion over the years, the originally nervous financial situation of the Meng Lianggu rebel group was immediately relieved.

The food that Yan Shenggong's Mansion had accumulated over the years was accepted by Zhu Jinsong unceremoniously and used to resettle the people who fled from Zhili to Shandong.

…

From the day he was born, Yang Daniu had no so-called nickname. His parents called him Yang Daniu, and his name registered with the government was also Yang Daniu.

It's not that Yang Daniu doesn't want a nicer name, it's just that there is not a single scholar in the entire Yangjiazhuang. If he wants to go to the county town to ask scholars to help him choose a name, he will have to spend several pennies in writing fees. Yang Daniu is very poor.

Naturally, his father was reluctant to part with the money, so Yang Daniu could only be called Yang Daniu.

Perhaps because his name contains the word "ox", Yang Daniu has been very strong since he was a child. In many cases, the word "very strong" often means that he is very good at eating.

As the saying goes, if you are a young man, you will have to live in poverty, let alone someone like Yang Daniu who has been eating since he was a child. His father can no longer afford to support him.

If his father couldn't afford it, it wouldn't be a big deal. After all, Yang Daniu, who grew up, lived up to his name. He was born as strong as an ox. If Yang Daniu could steadily grow a few

acres of land, I think I can slowly live a good life.

Yang Daniu actually wanted to plant a few acres of land in a down-to-earth manner. After all, Yang Daniu, who grew up in a ravine, didn't know Zhu Jinsong or the Meng Lianggu rebels at all, and his heart was not that wild.

The problem is that the number of Dingkou during the Qian Dynasty has reached 300 million, and the rural sages and gentry of our country in the Qing Dynasty are all fixated on that little land, so Yang Daniu was not able to get his own land and could only live with his father.

Together we dig our one-third of an acre of land.

If this was the case, Yang Daniu felt that his life might just go by like this. After all, no one had to make do with life in this life.

Until one day, two government officials from the county ran to the ravine where Yang Daniu's home was overnight, and Yang Daniu, who was planning to go down to the ground under the moonlight, was naturally caught by these government officials.

At the beginning, Yang Daniu thought that these two government servants were here to collect taxes again, and he was thinking about how he could be poor and miserable in order to drag out the tax this time, but he didn't expect that these two government servants were not at all.

He came to collect taxes, and his attitude was not as arrogant and domineering as usual.

One of the yamen servants even said to Yang Daniu with a smile: "Daniu, I'm here to tell you some good news in Xiaoyangzhuang."

Seeing the disbelief on Yang Daniu's face, the yamen servant then said with a smile: "Don't believe it, this time, it's really a good thing - let me tell you, all the money, food, etc. that I owed in the past are all gone."

No need to pay!"

Hearing what the yamen officer said, Yang Daniu immediately trembled in his heart.

Even though Yang Daniu has not read any books, Yang Daniu has heard the old sayings passed down from generation to generation: "A weasel is not kind to a chicken when it pays New Year greetings!"

Normally, the government of the Qing Dynasty didn't force the poor people like me to pay taxes. It was clear that the government was ready to collect taxes for the 150th year of Qianlong's reign, but now it suddenly said that it would be taxed.

The first thought in Yang Daniu's mind was to forgive all the money, food, and everything he owed before.

Then a second thought came to Yang Daniu's mind.

Taxes were exempted from the 50th year of Qianlong's reign to the 150th year of Qianlong's reign, and taxes were collected again from the 51st year of Qianlong's reign?

After thinking of this possibility, Yang Daniu couldn't help but feel even more nervous. He looked at the government servant in front of him and asked cautiously: "I dare to ask the officer, but... but you have to charge fifty-one years of deafness tax?"

When asked by Yang Daniu, the yamen servant was not only a little confused, but after realizing it, he laughed and said: "What are you thinking? I just said that I don't need to pay anymore, can I still lie to you?"

Can’t do it?”

Yang Daniu was thinking that if you, the grandsons of Eagle Claw, didn't lie to others, why would I still be naked and go out to work in the dark?

After thinking about it, Yang Daniu asked tentatively: "So, what does Mr. Cha mean?"

The yamen servant laughed again, raised his finger mysteriously and pointed at the moon in the sky, and then said to Yang Daniu: "The sky outside has changed!"

Yang Daniu's heart tightened and he asked: "What has changed?"

The officer said: "Oh my God, things have changed! The Qing Dynasty is about to end!"

Before Yang Daniu could continue to ask questions, the yamen officer continued: "The Qing Dynasty is coming to an end soon. Emperor Qianlong ordered all the hardcore farmers in the world to return to Zhili, and he also wanted to drive back all the people in Zhili."

If we go to Shandong, even we government officials will be the same."

Upon hearing this, Yang Daniu's eyes widened immediately and he asked: "What? Drive us all to Shandong?"

Damn it, I originally thought they were just going to collect taxes for that year, but I didn’t expect that the government was not here to collect taxes at all, but to take away all their land!

Seeing that Yang Daniu was about to get angry when he glared at the cow, the yamen servant chuckled and said, "I'm telling you, don't think this is a bad thing."

"I heard from my brother-in-law who is a soldier in Green Camp that the rebels in Shandong are making a lot of noise and they treat the people under their command very well. The people in Shandong can have enough to eat.

You are wearing a shirt, but you are like you working with your buttocks naked every day."

Yang Daniu shook his head, looked at the yamen servant with vigilance, and said: "I don't believe it, so don't fool me. If you have something wrong, just tell me directly. Don't make fun of me."

The yamen servant was also anxious and shouted: "What do you want me to do? What kind of money can you give me?"

Having said this, the yamen servant took another look at Yang Erniu, who was naked, and said loudly: "You are the only one who works like a naked man every day? Bah!"

Yang Daniu still shook his head: "I still don't believe it. If you say that the government is planning to drive me to Shandong, then I believe it. But if you say that you will follow me, then I don't believe it."

The yamen servant spread his hands helplessly and said: "If you don't believe it, then there is nothing I can do. But think about it, if we hadn't gone to Shandong with you, I would have gone into your broken ravine in the middle of the night.

run?"

"To tell you the truth, Emperor Qianlong will definitely drive us out of Zhili, so the government officials in our county have been divided into two groups. One group wants to follow you to Shandong, and the other group wants to escape to Shanxi.

of."

"When I followed you to Shandong, you were just like me. Although I usually urged you to pay taxes, they were all assigned by the government, and I myself never harmed you."

"The rest of those who want to flee to Shanxi are those who dig up graves and knock on widows' doors. They don't dare to follow you to Shandong, so they can only sneak to Shanxi on their own."

"To put it bluntly, I came to your Xiaoyangzhuang just to organize everyone in your Xiaoyangzhuang so that everyone can take care of each other on the road. When we get to Shandong, can you still recommend me to do it?

Yamen."

Hearing what the yamen officer said, Yang Da Newton somewhat believed it.

If these government officials discovered it because of their conscience, then Yang Daniu would definitely not believe it. But if it was said that these government officials had their own plans, then this is probably true.

Just when Yang Daniu was still hesitant, the yamen officer continued: "Okay, you go home quickly and put on some pants, and then call all the people in your little Yangzhuang and give them one night to clean up."

Pack up, let’s leave as soon as daybreak.”

Yang Daniu was stunned and asked: "Why are you in such a hurry?"

The yamen servant shook his head with a bitter look on his face and said: "Urgent? We can't be in a hurry. The official document from the Tatar court tells us to get out of here. If it stays a few days later, who knows if the Tatars will send troops to massacre the village."

Massacre the city?"

"To tell you the truth, all the princes in our county have run away. We have no choice, so we came to find you overnight. Others in the county who dared to follow us to Shandong have already gone to various villages."

The yamen servant had already said everything to this extent, and Yang Daniu also understood.

It's just that he understands, but when he thinks of giving up these lands, Yang Daniu hesitates again.

Although there is not much land here, apart from the part of the grain harvested every year that is given to the government, the rest is enough to ensure that he and his father, mother and family of three will not starve to death. But just giving up this three-acre of family land, Yang Daniu's

But in my heart I couldn't bear it.

While Yang Daniu was hesitating, the yamen servant urged again: "What else are you thinking about? Hurry up. When we get to Shandong, everyone will be allocated their own land and everyone will have enough to eat.

You can have food, new clothes, and maybe you, Yang Daniu, can find a wife."

The word daughter-in-law finally made Yang Daniu make up his mind.

It's hard to say whether he can have a full meal if he stays here in Xiaoyangzhuang, but the possibility of finding a wife is indeed very slim.

Rather than continue to stay in Xiaoyangzhuang and let the old Yang family die, why not go to Shandong with us as the yamen servant said, in case we can find a wife there?

Yang Daniu felt that he had plenty of strength and was willing to work hard. As long as Shandong could give him some land, he could earn the money to marry his wife.

Thinking of this, Yang Daniu no longer hesitated and said to the yamen servant: "Okay, wait a minute, I'll go back and put on clothes."
