As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people, and they are grateful to whoever can fill their stomachs.

The premise of being able to eat a full stomach is to have land.

……

Baihusuo, West Courtyard.

Standing in the courtyard, Lin Mang looked at the small courtyard with some reluctance.

When he turned around, several people were already standing outside the courtyard.

"grown ups!"

All the guards in Jin Yi knelt down on one knee, cupping their fists in salute.

Lin Mang smiled and said calmly, "Get up."

Looking at Wang Dasheng, he asked, "Have you finished dealing with the Zhou family's money?"

Wang Dasheng solemnly said: "According to your request, half of it will be confiscated, and [-]% of the remaining half will be returned to the common people, [-]% will be given to the family members of the three sacrificed brothers, and [-]% will be given to you brothers."

After finishing speaking, he took out a stack of banknotes from his bosom, presented them in front of Lin Mang, and said, "My lord, this is all the remaining property, totaling 2 taels."

Lin Mang took the banknote, feeling in his heart, this week's family is worthy of being a wealthy family for nearly a hundred years, and the heritage they have accumulated is really extraordinary.

The cash seized from the Zhou family was 3 taels of silver. In addition, there were various fields, houses, and shops under his name.

In fact, these are the real big ones. Back then, he could sell 600 taels of land for only a few acres of broken land. The Zhou family's fields were all high-quality fertile land.

In addition, the houses under the name of the Zhou family occupy the most prosperous locations in the city, and their value is self-evident.

However, most of the assets of the Zhou family were obtained by exploiting the people. He occupied the people's fields and returned the houses to the people.

Although he needs money, he will not ask for it from ordinary people.

In the end, the properties found in the house raid reached an astonishing 15 taels, which does not include some assets belonging to the common people.

A mere noble family in Yuanjiang County has such assets, which shows how deep the heritage of those noble families must be.

But it can also be seen from this how hard the lives of the people of Ming Dynasty are.

Lin Mang took one last look at the small courtyard, and closed the courtyard door, while a group of Jin Yiwei silently followed behind.

Although they spent a short time with each other, the young boss made them admire each other.

Outsiders all thought that Jin Yiwei Lin Mang was a killer, but only they knew how good this boss was to his subordinates.

When Lin Mang walked out of the small courtyard, he found that there were Jinyiwei standing outside the courtyard.

Chen Tiankui held the knife with one hand, his face was still grim.

Lin Mang smiled and said loudly, "Everyone, I'm here to thank you all!"

In any case, when he left office, there were so many people who wanted to send him off, so it was not in vain for him to come and go through this matter.

Chen Tiankui said silently: "Take care all the way!"

At this moment, he suddenly didn't know whether it was right to send Lin Mang to Beijing.

For a moment, he suddenly wanted him to stay.

Because he knows too well what kind of place the capital city is.

Wang Dasheng came forward leading a horse, his voice was slightly choked: "My lord, this horse was obtained from the Tiandao Society, and it is a good horse that travels thousands of miles a day."

Lin Mang reached out to take the reins, hung the burden and Xiuchun knife on the horse, reached out and patted Wang Dasheng on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "You will be Xiaoqi from now on, but don't learn from me."

"My lord..." Wang Dasheng hesitated to speak.

He actually wanted to leave with Master Lin, but he also knew that this was impossible, hundreds of households would not be able to enter Beijing, let alone him.

Lin Mang waved his hands with a smile, and led the horse towards the gate of Baihusuo.

"Squeak..."

The heavy vermilion door made a dull sound and slowly opened to both sides.

But when the door opened, Lin Mang was stunned.

Outside the gate of the Hundred Households, dense crowds of people stood.

Among the crowd, an old man with a cane came out and shouted hoarsely: "People of Washi Lane, Xu Xiandeng comes to see you off, and I wish you success in this journey."

The old man was Xu Xiandeng, the teacher whose son died in Washixiang.

Hearing that Mr. Lin is leaving today, he came here to see him off.

The densely packed crowd of people kneeled on the ground behind them, but the chaotic voices seemed orderly and consistent at this time:

"Washixiang Luodou came to see you off."

"Qi Youmin from Washi Lane came to see you off."

"Master Zhang Wang from Washi Lane came to see you off."

……

At this moment, the entire Baihu House was obviously noisy, but it seemed extremely quiet.

Needle drop can be heard!

The eyes of many Jin Yiwei are also extremely complicated.

They only heard that the common people sent the upright officials to resign, but they had never heard that the common people sent Jin Yiwei to resign.

They are dubbed the most names, but they are the minions of the eagle and the dogs of the court.

But when they joined Jinyiwei back then, their ambition was not to serve the country and the people.

Lin Mang froze in place for a long time without saying a word.

After a long time, Lin Mang suddenly smiled, led the horse and walked out, and said loudly: "Everyone, get up."

"I can't deserve this obeisance!"

When Lin Mang came, the people in front of him automatically parted a road, and countless eyes gathered.

Lin Mang led the horse and walked slowly towards the city gate.

Along the way, many common people and a group of Jin Yiwei followed behind.

All the way to the outside of Yuanjiang city.

Above the city gate, many county soldiers felt inconceivable about this scene.

Lin Mang got on his horse, cupped his hands and said, "Everyone, send you off for thousands of miles, and there will be a farewell. Don't send each other off again."

Then he pulled the reins and rode the horse.

The sound of horseshoes vibrated, and the black robe hunted!

On the distant horizon, a round of red sun is rising, and the morning sun is shining all over the road from time to time.

Chapter 38 Entering Dongchang Prefecture

Dongchang Mansion, outside the city.

Restaurants outside the city.

The restaurant is not big, just a small two-story building, surrounded by simple fences and courtyard walls, with a few simple tables inside and outside the building.

Horseshoes vibrated on the deserted road outside the wine shop, and the gangsters with swords on their backs hurried past on their horses, setting off dust and smoke in the sky.

The setting sun is about to fall, and it is a little cooler.

In a corner of the restaurant courtyard, a figure wrapped in a black coat held a cup of tea and sipped it leisurely.

This person is Lin Mang who came from Yuanjiang City.

He set off from Yuanjiang City, drove for three days, and finally stepped into the boundary of Dongchang Prefecture.

Lin Mang glanced around casually, feeling emotional in his heart.

As expected of the capital city of Dongchang Mansion, he met innumerable people from the rivers and lakes along the way, and there were not a few of them even in the Xiantian Realm.

In Yuanjiang City, there are only a handful of innate realms.

Lin Mang was thinking about going to Beijing this time.

According to the news Chen Baihu gave him, Princess Toshihide's convoy of Izumo Kingdom will arrive in Fucheng in five days, and at the same time, the beautiful girls selected by Dongchang Mansion will also set off with her at the same time.

Therefore, the Thousand Households Office of Dongchang Prefecture ordered to mobilize elites from hundreds of households from all over the country to participate in the escort mission.

Especially the selected beautiful girls, these are all going to be sent to the palace, and they must not be sloppy.

but……

A strange smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Lin Mang's mouth.

The so-called princess...isn't she a man?

I really want to see her, oh no, it's him.

This group of guys didn't have any good ideas when they went to Beijing.

At this moment, smoke and dust rose from the road in the distance, and a carriage drove quickly, accompanied by a team of guards around the carriage.

Those guards were all tall and burly, with long knives on their waists, and they were obviously accomplished warriors.

The carriage stopped in front of the wine shop, and one of the men who looked like the leader of the guards drove to the side of the carriage and whispered a few words, then dismounted and walked towards the wine shop.

Some guards followed him into the wine shop, while some stayed beside the carriage.

"Xiao Er, prepare some food!"

The leader of the guards was a rough man with a beard, who looked to be in his forties.

Lin Mang glanced at him casually, and noticed that his steps were extraordinarily heavy and powerful, presumably he was practicing off-road kung fu.

But he just glanced curiously, and quickly looked away.

I met too many people from the rivers and lakes along the way, and they all have their own methods.

For most people, energy is limited, so the martial arts they choose are what they are good at.

Boxing, palming, kicking, marksmanship, and even hidden weapons.

Putting down a few copper plates on the table, Lin Mang picked up the embroidered spring knife wrapped in cloth on the table, turned and left.

just,

The moment he walked out of the wine shop, a refined iron arrow shot from afar.

The piercing sound in the ear is sharp and piercing!

"bass!"

Lin Mang's two fingers stretched out quickly like a dragon entering the sea, the true energy between his fingers circulated, and he reversed the direction of the refined iron arrow in an instant and shot it out.

"Pfft!"

A masked man in black on horseback in the distance screamed and fell off his horse.

In the distance, more than twenty masked men in black rode forward, full of evil spirits.

Inside the restaurant, the expressions of the previous guards changed immediately, and the leader of the guards roared, "Quick! Miss Protect!"

Everyone immediately drew their knives and rushed to the side of the carriage.

The leader of the guard walked like flying, and when he landed with one step, a big pit was immediately sunken in the ground, which seemed to have a huge force.

At the same time, fine iron arrows flew all over the sky, piercing through the guards guarding the carriage, and there were wailing sounds.

The masked man in black who came on horseback quickly fought with a group of guards.

Lin Mang looked at the two men who were killing him, and frowned slightly.

Is this treating himself as the guard of the carriage?

The zhenqi in the palm burst out, and the "Baguazhang" was lifted up, and the pure yang zhenqi was condensed into a domineering palm print with one palm.

Even though it was "Ba Gua Palm", he used it with incomparable ferocity and domineering power.

"Oh!"

A masked black-clothed man rushing forward was bleeding immediately, and the whole man flew more than ten meters from the horse's back, and fell to the ground, life or death unknown.
