Space Fisherwoman: Going fishing in the sea and getting rich

During this time, they were thankful that their grandchildren were mortgaged.

No matter how hard the days of being mortgaged are, they are certainly not as hard as being in jail or doing hard labor.

I didn’t expect that the grandchildren would be brought along as well.

Qin Heqi said coldly: "Have you heard of collective punishment? If the head of a wealthy family commits a crime, everyone else will be implicated. You and your children are just here to perform corvée labor, which is a bargain for you."

"Some men were exiled to the frontier, and the women in their families were used as military prostitutes. No matter how old the children were, whether they were boys or girls, they would become slaves or even playthings for others to enjoy."

"You can also see your children, so you should smile."

The people in the Song family felt a tightness in their hearts and dared not say anything anymore. They just looked across the river worriedly.

As soon as I looked over, I saw Song Chujin being kicked in the waist by the officer and falling to the ground instantly.

The Song family: "Jin Bao!"

Gao Siyue said worriedly: "Jinbao didn't do anything. Why did the official kick him?"

Qin Heqi said coldly: "What does he have to do to get kicked? Even if he does nothing, if he is slow to react or speak, he will still be kicked. You can't stand this one kick? There will be many more kicks waiting for him in the days to come."

After saying this, he picked up the whip and told them to do their work.

The people from the Song family were reluctant to leave, but Qin Heqi kept staring at them, so they dared not disobey.

When Song Chuman saw this, she laughed wildly inwardly and left contentedly.

Seeing her satisfied face, Xiao Xuanli said with a smile: "Are you satisfied with their punishment?"

Song Chuman nodded: "Satisfied, especially satisfied. The more they care about something, the more they torture it. It's simply killing people and destroying their hearts. Hahahaha...hahahaha..."

But she suddenly stopped smiling halfway through.

Xiao Xuanli asked: "What's wrong?"

Song Chuman looked at the officials in the distance and sighed, "It's time to do corvée labor. I guess the village won't be peaceful again."

Xiao Xuanli also knew that it was King Gongxuan who informed her in advance, and asked, "Do you have any complaints about corvée labor?"

Song Chuman shook her head: "That's not the case. If the country wants to develop, corvée labor is indispensable. And I've heard from others that the policies formulated by the court are actually biased towards the poor."

The emperor of Xuanling Kingdom was more benevolent than many emperors she had known in her previous life.

Xiao Xuanli: "Yes, the emperor also knows that it is not easy for the people, but sometimes for the sake of the country, many times he has no choice."

As they were talking, the sound of a gong was heard, and they went to Ji Lizheng's house together again.

When we arrived at the door, quite a few people had already gathered.

The people working at Song Chuman's house had to put down their work, leaving only the people on duty, and quickly ran over.

There were already four men in official uniforms waiting for them at the door.

Yang Qingrui glanced at the official anxiously, and then saw Song Hexiu and his family standing next to Mr. Li. He bravely walked over and asked, "Ah Man, does Ji Lizheng have anything else to notify you about? Do you know any news?"

Song Chuman whispered, "We need to build a road."

Yang Qingrui's face turned pale instantly.

As ordinary people, the thing we fear most is doing corvee labor.

It would be fine if there is no suitable person at home. If there is a suitable person, everyone who goes there may lose half his life, and it will take a long time to recover after returning.

The most important thing is that those who go there are strong laborers in the family and are in good health.
