A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career
Chapter 183 How can it be considered robbery?
Chen Changsheng looked in the direction of Aunt Ma's finger. She squinted slightly and didn't recognize those people.
"Aren't those people from Zhaojiacun?" Li Zheng, who was standing next to him, also looked over there. "People from Zhaojiacun come to our village to steal things."
Oh, good guy.
Chen Changsheng did not expect that the people in Zhaojiacun would be so bold as to steal a house under her nose in broad daylight.
She and Aunt Ma walked towards those people and said with serious faces, "Who are you? It doesn't seem like you are from our kiln."
Several strong men who were carrying bricks among the kiln workers heard the sound, stopped and said disdainfully, "These are the bricks from our Zhaojia Village. Of course they must be moved."
Anyway, with Zhao Lizheng's support, the strong men are not afraid.
Besides, what Zhao Lizheng said is indeed reasonable. The widow in front of her is named Zhao and comes from their Zhaojia Village, so her things naturally belong to Zhaojia Village.
Chen Changsheng sneered and said, "You are now in the boundary of Chenjia Village, but you say these bricks belong to your Zhaojia Village. How can you be so shameless? Even the black ones can be said to be white by you."
She turned her eyes and saw Zhao Lizheng hiding in the crowd. It was just as she guessed.
"Uncle Li Zheng, how should we deal with these people who come to steal?"
Chen Lizheng snorted coldly, "Those who commit robbery must serve two years in corvee service and return all the stolen goods at ten times the price."
He still knew the laws of Dasheng Dynasty clearly.
When they heard that they were going to do corvee labor, the dozen or so people from Zhaojiacun showed panic on their faces, but they still said harshly, "You old man and bitch, what nonsense are you talking about? Who are you trying to scare? I was just scared. Not afraid at all.”
Li Zheng took a breath and continued, "You don't have to do corvee service. If you can reveal the mastermind, you will be an accomplice at most. I believe the government will deal with it leniently."
"Treat him lightly...Brother, should we..." a man whispered.
He had just married his mother-in-law, but he didn't want to be dragged into corvee labor. The man couldn't help but glance at Zhao Lizheng.
Seeing that he was about to be exposed, Zhao Lizheng took the initiative to come out and said, "Brother Chen, long time no see. I heard that our Zhaojia Village has built a brick kiln and the kiln will be opened today, so I specially brought people from the village to pick up the bricks. "
Chen Li just smiled and said, "Zhao Lizheng, you are stepping on the boundary of my Chenjia Village. How can you say that the brick kiln factory belongs to your Zhaojia Village? Why are you so thick-skinned? You can't even pierce it with a knife."
"Then Zhao Daya came from our Zhaojia Village, so her things must belong to our Zhaojia Village." Zhao Lizheng looked at the kiln and continued, "Besides, this kiln has hundreds of thousands of bricks. With so many bricks, can you, Chenjiacun, find a market?
You, Brother Chen, must not know any dignitaries. It would be a waste to keep these bricks in your Chenjiacun. It is only reasonable to give them to our Zhaojiacun. After all, I know more than a few businessmen. "
Chen Lizheng was speechless by these shameless words.
Aunt Ma's face turned purple with anger. These days, she has been supervising the kiln every day. The bricks that were finally fired cannot be taken away in vain.
Several people looked at Chen Changsheng, but Chen Changsheng remained silent at this time.
She saw a large number of vehicles coming towards the kiln factory, and the corner of her lips curled up, and she was about to see a good show.
The carriage headed by it looked a little familiar, like... the one the county magistrate rode last time.
Everyone watching the excitement in the kiln factory saw the group of cars approaching, and everyone whispered to each other, curious about who was visiting.
Bai Xiao, who was dressed in a navy blue dress, slowly got down from the carriage, walked directly to Chen Changsheng and said, "The day before yesterday, Mrs. Chen sent someone to the county office to inform me that the kiln would open today. Bai made arrangements overnight. Vehicles come to pick up the goods.”
"Master Bai actually went there in person, thank you for your help." Chen Changsheng replied politely, neither humble nor overbearing.
As soon as Chen Changsheng spoke, he saw Li Zheng on the side already kneeling down, lying on the ground with his whole body and saying respectfully, "The common people bow to the county magistrate.
Chen Lizheng sighed: [What a good guy, he is actually the county magistrate, a living county magistrate. The county magistrate visited his Chenjia Village for the second time! 】
Others also followed Li Zheng's example, knelt down and said in unison, "The common people kowtow to the county magistrate."
Chen Changsheng was not used to the ancients kneeling down to salute at every turn, but it seemed out of place to stand alone.
Forced to have no choice, she could only kneel down along with the flow.
"Everyone, please get up. There is no need to be polite. Bai is here today as a businessman, not as a county magistrate. Please get up."
Everyone stood up after hearing the order, but they still looked at each other, and a few of them standing far away were still whispering.
"The county magistrate is here as a businessman. Is it to get bricks?"
"Impossible. There is also a kiln factory in the county. Why does the county magistrate like the kiln factory in our village?"
"But I see that the county magistrate and Dafu's mother look very familiar, and there are so many oxcarts coming. If you don't take bricks, what will you do?"
Chen Changsheng walked up to Bai Xiao with a red brick, presented the brick and said, "This is the new red brick produced today. Please take a look."
"Yes, this firing technology is comparable to that of kilns in the city." Bai Xiao commented, "Let's load the car."
Hearing Magistrate Bai's words, Aunt Ma, who was following closely behind her, immediately beamed with joy and said energetically, "Move the goods! Load the truck!"
As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Lizheng and said, "Sister-in-law Chen's bricks are sold to the government. The county magistrate personally picks up the goods. Everyone moves them carefully."
There was an uproar below.
"Good guy, Dafu Niang's bricks are actually sold to the government. It's so amazing."
"Let me just say that I guessed right. The last time there was trouble in the ancestral hall, I saw that Sister-in-law Chen and the county magistrate looked very familiar to each other."
"I have to ask my men to sign up as soon as possible and join the kiln factory as a kiln worker. That will help him get closer to the county magistrate."
"Hey, just now the people in Zhaojia Village said that the kiln factory belongs to their village, why are they silent now?"
The spectators then remembered and turned to look at Zhao Lizheng in the crowd.
I saw Zhao Lizheng's old face, which was bruised and red from holding back.
Several men from Zhaojia Village beside me asked quietly, "Uncle, are we still moving?"
"Move, move, move you! Be careful of moving yourself to the prison!" Zhao Lizheng scolded angrily.
He was furious and depressed at the moment. He never expected that Chenjiacun would be the county magistrate again and had already found a good market.
Zhao Lizheng shouted, "Let's go!"
"No one is allowed to leave!" Chen Changsheng said sternly, "The common people want to sue the village chief of Zhaojia Village for allowing his villagers to steal and rob wantonly, and even rob in the street. Please make the decision for the common people!"
Zhao Lizheng stopped, turned around and said, "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense."
"There are all the witnesses and physical evidence. With so many pairs of eyes watching, Zhao Lizheng still wants to make excuses?" Chen Changsheng pointed to the crowd of people watching around him, including those from Chenjia Village and several neighboring villages.
"I just moved a few bricks and returned them to you. How can you say you stole them?"
Chen Changsheng curled his lips and said amusedly, "If it's Zhao Lizheng's wish, then can I stab you first and then treat you? Doesn't this count as murder?"
