After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 676: Crazy New Year Gift [4]

"Then we won't be polite." Hua Zongqi said, calling on the soldiers: "Put away your swords and move the New Year gifts. We can't ask the village heads to help us move them. What kind of words would that be?"

"Yes!" The ten soldiers sheathed their swords, making quite a noise and scaring the village heads again.

The six carts of New Year gifts sent by more than twenty village heads all became the Northwest Army.

The village heads wanted to cry, but they were afraid that crying would displease the Northwest Army and result in them being chopped to pieces, so they had to force themselves to smile.

However, this is not over yet.

After moving the six carts of New Year gifts, Hua Zongqi said politely: "Thank you all for giving us New Year gifts. We have no way to repay you, so we will just give them to you... Please!"

Ten soldiers: "Please——!"

The timid headman was almost frightened to death, but fortunately the heads on both sides of him supported him.

"Guan Shuli..." The village heads looked at Guan Shuli eagerly like sons looking at their fathers... Say something!

The clerk said, "Village heads, the county magistrate wrote down the arrangements for your towns in his latest letter to us, so you don't need to do anything extra. Thank you for sending New Year gifts to the soldiers, so let the soldiers escort you out of the town as a token of gratitude."

Hey, you black-hearted person, did we ask you to say this? You might as well shut up!

However, the Qin family is his father-in-law's family. How could he help you to disturb his father-in-law's family? Get out of here quickly.

The group of village heads had no choice but to leave, and they had to smile all the way, for fear that if they showed the slightest resentment, they would be hated by General Hua.

Patriarch Lu waited until the village heads passed the intersection of the Lu family's land before running after them.

"Captain Zhang, Brother Zhang, wait for your brother-in-law!"

The call of "brother-in-law" made Zhang, the village chief, feel very proud, and he hurriedly said to the driver, "Stop the car, stop the car, my brother-in-law Lu is here!"

After waiting for a long time, Chief Lu finally caught up, and behind him was Third Master Lu who was driving a car with gifts.

Hua Zongqi didn't understand. Didn't they have a car? Why did they let Chief Lu run here?

What do you know? This is called acting, anything less wouldn’t be real!

"Brother-in-law of the Fang family, you are finally here." Village Chief Zhang held the hand of Clan Leader Lu, and at this moment it was like seeing a relative.

Chief Lu said, "As soon as I got the news, I rushed out to meet you, but I heard that you had left with the clerk. I thought you must be talking about something important, so I didn't dare to disturb you..."

Village Chief Zhang: “…”

You go and disturb me.

The only reason we came here this time is to find your family, and then have your family introduce us to the Qin family, so that we can establish a relationship with the Qin family.

"Chief Lu, if you have anything to say, please say it as soon as possible. Don't let so many village chiefs wait for you alone!" said Hua Zongqi.

Village Chief Zhang: “…”

Are you urging Chief Lu? You are clearly urging me!

Village Chief Zhang was afraid of the Northwest Army, so he did not dare to ask to stay at the Lu family for a night. After accepting the New Year gift from the head of the Lu family, he got in the car and left again.

"Brother Zhang, have a safe trip!" Patriarch Lu called out, but he didn't even mention the idea of ​​coming to his house and sitting down for a while.

"Eh." Village Chief Zhang responded, a little disappointed... not really disappointed, after all, he had received a generous New Year gift from the Lu family.

The Lu family has really risen up, and the New Year gift they gave is twice as generous as what they gave to the Qin family.

With such a generous gift, Village Chief Zhang felt too embarrassed to blame the Lu family, nor was he too embarrassed to make Mrs. Lu's family angry.

Hua Zongqi was very conscientious and sent a group of village heads to the next town before returning.

The news that a group of village heads had come specially to give New Year gifts to the soldiers had spread throughout Taifeng Town.

"Oh my god, I didn't realize that these village heads were so kind-hearted as to give gifts to the soldiers!"

"Yes, yes. In the past, other people gave them New Year gifts."

"Should we give some New Year gifts to the soldiers? People from other towns have given gifts to the soldiers, so if we, the people from our town, don't give any, won't we be called stingy?!"

"This? Indeed..."

"How about we ask the village chief to talk to the village chiefs and ask the four village chiefs in our town to give the soldiers a New Year gift?"

"That's a good idea. It's just a matter of talking."

"Hua Zongqi and his men may look fierce, but the soldiers did protect us. If it weren't for them guarding us, we wouldn't even dare to sleep soundly. How terrible are the descendants of spies. I heard that when the descendants of spies in four villages outside the county were surrounded and suppressed, more than a dozen people were injured. They are so fierce!"

The few people who went to the Bandit Stronghold to deliver the letter were actually villagers from a village outside the county town. After their identities were exposed, the government troops went to clear out the descendants of the spies from several villages.

The descendants of the spies rebelled and injured some people.

As a result, the villagers also realized the horror of the descendants of spies and began to actively cooperate with the government troops to eliminate the descendants of spies and the descendants of bandits.

"Let's go, let's go back to the village and talk to the village chief about giving gifts!" Some villagers who had sold their goods went home to pack up their stalls.

Therefore, the next day, the village heads went to find the village heads and asked them to send New Year gifts to the soldiers.

Naturally, the two elders Zhou and Lu agreed immediately and each of them paid for the New Year gifts, without the need for the village heads under their jurisdiction to pool money.

Village chief Miao also agreed, only because he wanted to establish a relationship with the Hua Zongqi, but he was reluctant to spend the money, so he ordered several village chiefs under his jurisdiction to pay.

Chief Kong was almost mad with anger. In the past two years, his Kong family had been selling off family property to make ends meet and had already been stretched to the limit. Yet he was still asked to give New Year gifts to that group of ruffians!

But all the other village heads had already sent gifts, so Village Head Kong had no choice but to do the same.

He also ordered the village chiefs under his jurisdiction to collect money and asked each household in Kongjia Village to contribute twenty cents.

There were complaints everywhere in Kongjia Village, which alarmed the customs clerk, who summoned the village head Kong and questioned him.

In the end, it was the family of Lichang Kong who paid for the New Year gift.

But General Hua confiscated the flag and returned the New Year gift sent by Head Kong.

Zhou and Lu harvested the three-mile-long seedlings.

Madam Guan, the Qin family, the Xue family, and Xiaobai also sent New Year gifts to Hua Zongqi and others on behalf of Huang Yanglong.

The Guan family sent mostly the output of the farm, the Xue family sent pork, mutton, chicken and other meats, the Qin family sent mostly various kinds of cloth, and the Huang family sent all kinds of items.

Seeing this, Fourth Master Qu naturally went to find Mr. Wen Tao and asked him, "Mr. Tao, should we send a New Year gift to General Hua?"

Mr. Wen Tao glanced at him and said, "You are still asking about this? Although they are now called the Liang Family Army, they are actually the Northwest Army. As His Majesty's direct line, they must be sent as a gift."

Fourth Master Qu: "..."

There's no need to ask. If I directly persuade you to send New Year gifts, you will scold me for not distinguishing between superiors and subordinates and punish me again!

"Yes, I'll prepare it right away." Mr. Qu Si waited for Mr. Wen Tao to nod before leaving.

When Xie Kang, Weng Shan Jia and other families saw that everyone was giving New Year gifts to the soldiers, they also gave New Year gifts to the soldiers.

As a result, within just ten days, the Hua Zongqi received a total of sixty-three cars of New Year gifts.

Sixty-three cars!

Not to mention that the soldiers were stunned, even General Hua felt that this New Year gift was a bit too crazy.

At this time of year in previous years, they were all anxiously waiting for New Year supplies from the court, fearing that the supply convoy would not arrive during the New Year, leaving the soldiers to spend the New Year in misery.

But this year, he had less than sixty-three people under his command, but received sixty-three cars of New Year gifts!

Can't finish it, can't finish it at all.

He doesn't need supplies anymore. This year he will be able to send supplies back to the Liang family army camp in the capital!
