Dressed as the head of the lazy village

Along the way, I did meet a few refugees who sneaked into the city somehow, trying to snatch the steamed stuffed buns from the roadside stalls, but were picked up by a few arresters who rushed over and threw them out of the city gate.

The police officers have had a surge in workload recently, and they are very displeased, cursing and swearing along the way, implying that the government in Yazhou did not act and deliberately let the disaster victims come to them.He also scolded those refugees: "Our county lord is not those incompetent people in Yazhou. His rule is extremely strict. All refugees who have no status to guide them will either stay in prison or be sold as slaves. Brother A few good intentions, I think your first crime is just to drive you out of the city, and if you are sensible, go away!"

Those refugees were driven out of the city, and they squatted at the base of the city wall and cried on the spot.They were originally good citizens, so naturally they didn't want to be reduced to slavery, humiliating their ancestors and harming their descendants.If it weren't for the disaster in their hometown, who would want to become a refugee?

But the county town refused to accept them, and the officials were unwilling to open warehouses for disaster relief, so they would starve to death.

Wang Dawei looked at the family of four crying from afar, and the older daughter cried: "Father, mother, you sell me, sell me, at least our family can still live..."

The girl's miserable cry was so moving that even the soldier guarding the gate couldn't help but take a second look.

But that's easy to say.There were not one or two refugees who came to Miaozhu Prefecture. Qiongshui County had already captured a group of people and reduced them to slavery. Now the population market is saturated, and they can't find buyers even if they want to sell themselves.

Wang Dawei looked at this scene thoughtfully.Few of these victims were single, and most of them dragged their families, three or four, four or five people in groups, at least one of them was young and middle-aged, otherwise it would have been difficult to travel hundreds of miles to this place.

Like the family just now, there is a couple in their 30s with a son and a daughter.

Wang Dawei sympathized with them, but if he wanted to absorb the victims of the disaster into the village, the villagers would definitely not agree.He has just succeeded as the village chief, and has not yet brought any benefits to the village. The villagers just want to continue sucking blood from him, and they don't really believe in him.

You have to think long-term...

Shoucai shop is at the end of North Street, with a small frontage, only some incense candles, ingots and yellow paper are placed.There are also two paper figurines at the door of the shop, one on the left and one on the right, boys and girls, at first glance they are quite scary.

The clerk didn't greet people as warmly as other shops when he saw someone, he just nodded at Wang Dawei, without saying a word the whole time.After all, it is not a year or a festival, and most of the people who come to Shoucai Shop are family members who have accidents, and no one will be in a good mood.

Wang Dawei glanced at the shop, but he didn't see the coffin, so he asked the clerk, and the clerk finally said, "Yes, follow me later. Do you want ready-made ones or custom-made ones? We also have them here." Good wood."

What is ready-made is that someone in the family dies suddenly, and there is no time to prepare a coffin.Custom-made means that many people prepare the next coffin for themselves while they are still alive.

"To be ready."

Wang Dawei followed the guy a few steps and turned around, only to find that there was a rather large yard behind the shop, where a lot of wood was piled up and covered with tarpaulin.A few ready-made coffins stood in an empty room with its door open.

The clerk led Wang Dawei into the room, pointed to the coffins and said: "The ready-made coffins are all here. The ones at the door are all three or five boards, and the ones in the back are four or six boards. There are also coffins on the side." Deputy two, three and four."

Wang Dawei didn't know about these specifications either. He had only seen coffins in filming and zombie movies in modern times. They were dark and different from the log-colored ones in front of him.

After asking the staff carefully, I found out that two, three, and four are two inches thick at the bottom of the coffin, three inches thick at the side, and four inches thick at the top of the roof.The full name of the three-five board is three four five, and the full name of the four-six board is four five six.The thicker the better, the more expensive the price.Like the pair of two, three and four, it only costs one, two or five silver coins.

Of course, the same size wood is different, and the price is not the same.Like the black coffin in the TV series, it is painted, and you have to pay extra.Some coffin heads are painted with circular longevity characters, so the price has to be added.

In the end, Wang Dawei chose a pair of three-five-foot coffins made of non-perishable wood, and spent four taels of silver.Another beautiful paper figurine was ordered, and a lot of ingots and paper money were sent to the village with the help of the coffin shop.

The clerk collected the money, and gave Wang Dawei another stack of yellow paper as an extra, and finally said a few words: "If there is anything wrong with the neighbor's house, please help me."

This is the coffin shop to solicit business and develop potential users.There is only this one sentence, and it is disgusting to say too much.

When the coffin was being loaded into the car, suddenly two policemen rushed over with many servant-like people, and the guy hurriedly dropped his work and stepped forward, bowing his hands and asking, "How did you two officers come to us?" Is this place here?"

In this shop of theirs, the officials and gentlemen patrolling the streets would easily refuse to come, thinking it was unlucky.

Sure enough, when the arrester saw that they were loading the coffin, he felt a little shy.Standing still at a distance, he said: "Catch a refugee... a little brother, who looks very tall, wearing a light blue gown, stole something from the county magistrate's house and ran away. Have you seen it?"

The guy was taken aback, and smiled apologetically, "You know that in our shop, refugees are not willing to come here."

Thinking about it quickly, the policeman whispered a few words to the servants around him, then went to the shop in front of him to search from house to house, and he left after a long time.

Wang Dawei moved his feet, blocked the pile of wood behind him tightly, and waited for the group of people to go far before he said to the man: "I see it's still early, why don't you hurry back, I'll walk around the city for a while." Buy some firewood, rice, oil and salt, and return to the village at Shen time (3:00 p.m.)."

The guy looked at the sun and agreed: "Go back later, the craftsman has plenty of time, and he can make the paper dolls more beautiful."

Paper pasters are very simple for skilled workers, and they can paste [-] or [-] papers a day.However, the degree of sophistication made in a hurry has declined.

"That's the reason. My uncle has worked so hard for half his life to find a wife, so he must paint beautifully." Wang Dawei took out three copper coins from his pocket and stuffed them, and the guy immediately patted his chest and promised, "I'll help you." Stare at the craftsman, and let him draw a Xi Shi!"

Wang Dawei thanked the buddy, agreed to meet at the gate of Shenshi City, watched him go away, and then turned around to meet a pair of bunny-like red eyes in the wood pile.

It was a very beautiful young man, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with big eyes, a straight nose, and a pointed chin. Even though his hair was disheveled and stained with sawdust, and his snow-white face was dusted with dust, he couldn't hide his beauty. .

This is the best-looking person Wang Dawei has ever seen since he traveled to ancient times—even in the modern entertainment circle, this young man is considered to be the most handsome.

But Wang Dawei saw too many beauties, and he was only amazed for a moment, and quickly said calmly: "Come out, I won't send you to see the official."

The young man poked his head out of the wood vigilantly, and after confirming that there was no one around, he crawled out from the pile of wood, and whispered "Thank you" to Wang Dawei, but the guard in his eyes did not disappear, and he ran away without looking back. .

Seeing him slipping away like a frightened rabbit, Wang Dawei couldn't help sighing in his heart:

The beauty of Qing Ben, how can I be a thief...

Although it is forced by the situation of the world, it is forced to be helpless.After all, it's all about this evil feudal society!

After leaving the Shoucai Shop, Wang Dawei wandered around North Street casually, and bought a catty of salt and a small pot of rapeseed oil, about half a catty.

The ten taels of silver that Wu Sanzhuan paid was spent four and a half taels of silver on coffins, paper figurines, and paper money, and there is still a lot left.Salt is fifty cents a catty, and rapeseed oil is one hundred cents a pot, which is not unaffordable.

...It just needs to be hidden, otherwise the food will go into someone else's stomach before he tastes the salty taste.

Wang Dawei sighed sadly: he finally knew why those industrious aborigines moved away.Being neighbors with these shameless people who love to take advantage, even if they have money, they dare not spend it.

It's too eye-catching.

On the way out of the city, there were several waves of police interrogation. It was probably because Wang Dawei was dressed too poorly and was a newcomer in the city, so he was treated as a refugee.It was only by taking out the successor village head's document with the seal on it that he could prove his identity.

Then the new head of Lazy Man Village was surrounded by the arresting officers.

Good things don't go out, laziness spreads thousands of miles, and embarrassment is thrown in the city!

When we arrived at the gate of the city, the interrogation was even stricter than when we entered the city.Wang Dawei was a little surprised. After all, he went to the city to investigate because he was afraid that refugees would sneak in. Why did he go out of the city to investigate?

"The home of the county magistrate was stolen by a refugee. I'm afraid the thief escaped from the city with valuables." The soldier guarding the city gate didn't blame him for talking too much, but raised his voice to the people who left the city: "The thief is a brother!" , looking handsome, wearing a light blue long gown. Folks, whoever sees the newspaper and tells the yamen, there will be a reward of three taels of silver!"

Three taels of silver is quite a lot, which is worth half a year's expenses of an ordinary farmer.The crowd suddenly boiled, and everyone discussed this little thief who dared to steal the county magistrate in twos and threes.

Wang Dawei's eyebrows twitched, thinking of the bunny-like boy he saw this morning.I don't seem to have seen him bring anything...

The poor man who thought it was because of hunger that he had no choice but to steal a thief, did he miss it and let a daring thief go?

Wang Dawei felt a little annoyed.

... He has always been law-abiding, fair and impartial, and rarely does such stupid things.He would never admit that it was because he saw that brother's face that his heart softened! ! !
