Chapter 181 182 Let him escape

Li Yu nodded, thinking about the route of Tu Gang's confession, thinking to himself: shortage of manpower is a big problem, except for himself, Xu Dong and Ruyi are the only ones who can attack, Zhou Jia, Yang Wei and Tie Zhu can protect themselves. Now, I hope Shen Wu can borrow manpower to follow the bandit tonight to explore the way.

Ruyi brought her mother and wife to Li Yu, and said to Li Yu, "An older one surnamed Liu, named Xing, and a younger one surnamed Zhang, named Tao, Mrs. Liu used to help cook at Liu Yuanwai's house in the town, Zhang The peach was sold by her husband's family, and she can do housework and simple needlework."

Li Yu looked at the two trembling kneeling on the ground, and said warmly: "You two get up! Mrs. Liu knows how to work on the stove, so she is in charge of the family's meals. The stove and stove must be cleaned up, and she will help clean up when she is free. house, do you know?"

   Mrs. Liu bowed and said, "Understood, Madam."

   "Sister Zhang, you are responsible for helping with sewing, laundry, and housework, understand?"

  Zhang Tao bowed and said, "Understood, Madam."

   "Ruyi, tell them the rules of the house." Li Yu got up and walked to the backyard.

Zhou Jia and Tu Dianshi taught Tie Zhu to recite the prepared notice twice, then had Tie Zhu take it and stick it on a broken wall, and had Tie Zhu recite it aloud in front of the broken wall. The content posted on the notice, Tie Zhu. After standing there and reciting it a few times, curious people slowly gathered around.

After everyone stood there and listened to Tie Zhu's recitation twice, a tall man said to Tie Zhu, "This little brother, does the yamen really want to recruit yamen? What kind of people are you recruiting? What are the requirements? Yes Salary?"

The tall man asked a few questions in one breath, Tie Zhu pointed at the notice, "Master Zhou said, number one; you need to be clean, strong, and under the age of 30, a total of 20 men will be recruited. , second; if there is a guarantee book from the neighbors, the clan elders, and the village chief, everyone can come to sign up, and third," Tie Zhu said, standing up straight, and puffing out his chest: "As long as you can beat me, you will be admitted. Based on the current situation of the county government office, the salary of each officer is tentatively set at 300 yuan a month, and when the county government office is on the right track, the salary will increase."

  The man looked at Tie Zhu and thought to himself: That kid in my family is much stronger than this kid, go back and let him try it out and make a way out now! After thinking about it, the man squeezed out of the crowd and hurried away.

   A woman sneered and said, "Does the yamen have money to make a salary? You haven't seen that the city wall has become like this, and you don't know when it will start to be repaired, and this county government office, tsk tsk! I think most of them are coaxing people to work for nothing."

A man who looked like a shopkeeper glanced at his old wife, "Bai Zaogong is also a person in the yamen, and everyone has a high look at it. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. I have to go back and let my son try it." After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he hurried gone.

  The old man scolded: "You **** old woman, you can't think of something good, you are talking nonsense here."

   "As far as you can, don't go home for dinner if you have the ability." The old woman pouted angrily and turned her head away.

   One person pointed to the sign next to him and said, "What is written on this one?"

   Tie Zhu answered loudly: "It says on it; Your Majesty is sympathetic to the people of Qingchuan, and has specially ordered that taxes be exempted for five years starting this year, and I hope all villagers will tell each other."

   "Really? I have to go back to preach and preach," the man took two steps, then turned back to Tie Zhu, "Little brother, does Your Majesty know? Those two families also need to receive food!"

  Mr. Qian came out from behind Tie Zhu and cupped his hands: "Brother, think about it, who can be bigger than His Majesty, with His Majesty supporting everyone, are you still afraid of two thieves?"

Someone in the crowd sneered at Mr. Qian's words, "This gentleman said it nicely, your Majesty is so far away from us, how far is it? I really can! Those officers and soldiers in the past few years did not come here. The county government will not be burned, and the county magistrate will not run away! Let's wait and see! Don't give your life in vain."

   "Yes! Yes! Let's wait!" People were talking and slowly dispersed.

   Zhou Jia stood at the door, looked at the scattered people, and then looked at the dilapidated county government office, and secretly vowed: If Qingchuan County is not managed well, no matter how hard it is, he will never leave.

After one day, there was an endless stream of people in front of the broken wall, and the news of Qingchuan County's court tax exemption and recruitment of yamen also spread, and people with a little knowledge were busy looking for someone to guarantee their children, and strive to earn a decent income as soon as possible. errand.

Zhou Jia returned to the opposite side, Li Yu told Zhou Jia the news of catching the Qinglongzhai bandit, and told Zhou Jia his idea of ​​​​tracking the bandit and finding the mountain bandit's nest. Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu and said worriedly: "Yu'er, the mountain bandits are vicious and vicious, it's too dangerous, I'm not worried, let's forget it!"

Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia and assured: "Xiaoxi, don't worry, with my skills, nothing will happen, I went up the mountain to find out the route, and when the people who borrowed from Shen Wu and the shopkeeper Chu arrive, I will catch him by surprise. , destroying a group of mountain bandits, you can also use the gold and silver from the mountain bandits' den to build city walls and build county offices."

After listening to Li Yu, Zhou Jia smiled, and fondly scratched the tip of Li Yu's handsome nose, "You! The mountain bandit doesn't know where he is, so he thought about robbing him of his gold and silver to build the city wall and The county government is over," Zhou Jia recalled that Li Yu was going to take a risk, and felt reluctant to give up, and said sadly, "It's all my fault that I'm too weak to kill the enemy side by side with you, so let Ruyi go with you and take care of each other. "

Li Yu put his toes on his toes, kissed Zhou Jia's wrinkled brow, and said with a smile, "Okay, don't belittle yourself, you've even made a name for yourself! I can't do it anymore, I get a headache when I read those books, you Look, our husband and wife match each other just fine."

   Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu's smiling face, and lowered her head to peck at her red lips, "Yu'er, I think, with your aptitude, if you go to school, you won't be worse than me."

   Li Yu giggled at Zhou Jia's exaggeration, "Then you made a lot of money and married a daughter-in-law who is both civil and military!"

   Zhou Jia replied solemnly: "Yeah! I made a lot of money." The two hugged each other and stayed warm for a while, until Yang Wei invited them to dinner outside before leaving the room.

   After dinner, Li Yu said to Tu Dianshi, "Mr. Tu, do you know the location of Qinglong Village?"

  Tu Dianshi saw that Li Yu asked about Qinglongzhai, and said with some worry: "I only know that I go out from the west city gate, which is on the west side of the mountain. I don't know the exact location. Madam, why are you asking about the location of Qinglongzhai?"

   Li Yu replied with a smile: "I'm just curious, how hidden their stockade is, and why the officers and soldiers couldn't find it after searching several times."

   Tu Dianshi said indignantly: "Those officers and soldiers are here to deceive food and drink. They go to the mountains to walk around after eating and drinking. Even if it is a business trip, the people of Qingchuan County don't know who they are.
