A young husband dressed as a violent butcher

Xiong Zhuangshan led Tang Shou to visit Zhouhe, this kind of thing can't go beyond Lizheng, whether it is public or private.When Tang Shou proposed to provide free kang for the lonely and widowed elderly in the village, Li Zheng was stunned for a long time and couldn't recover.

"What are you talking about...you want to give free kangs to the lonely old people in the village?" When Li was repeating these words, his lips were trembling and his eyes were frighteningly bright.

"Yes, but the premise is that the children of these old people are indeed dead, and they are not migrant workers or driven out because their children are not filial." Tang Shou said: "Those old people who only have children alive, even if there is only one Daughter, I don’t take care of the elderly who are left alone in the village after the woman gets married. It is the responsibility of the children to support the elderly, and they can escape the responsibility of the elderly because of marriage, and I, an outsider, have no obligation to take care of them.”

It is okay to help, but it is not kindness without bottom line and principle.

Human beings stand in the sky and earth with one stroke and one stroke, and stand up to the sky and earth, and shoulder their own responsibilities.

He can help the poor, but he cannot condone the wicked.

"It's natural. Those who have children will find their own children." Zhou He was very excited. He was different from Tang Shou. He was a native of Xinghua Village. Many lonely old people in the village were of the same generation as him, not a few years older.When I was younger, we all played together. It can be said that we were young, and our relationship was very deep.

Seeing how they live their lives now, alone and alone, Zhou He feels uncomfortable, and sometimes secretly wipes his tears.But these days, every family is not rich, and he also has a big family to consider, so all he can do is help a little.

Now that Tang Shou is willing to give them a kang for free, Zhou He is very excited. After the death of Grandma Wu, he is still worried about who will be next. If he can put a kang for those widowed and lonely old people, maybe no one will freeze them this winter. died.

"Then Trouble is now counting the number of orphans and widows in Murakami who have no children and no one to support them. Please give me the list when the time comes. I will discuss with Erlang and put them on the kang as soon as possible."

"Don't be so troublesome, I can give you the list right now. I know better than they themselves what the situation of these families in Xinghua Village is." Zhou He hurriedly said: "There are only three eligible households in our village, and one is an old bachelor. , I came here from famine when I was middle-aged, and there was no poor house or land. No one was willing to give him his little wife, Xiao Shuanger, and he was a bachelor all his life. There was also an old couple with only one kid, and they were hunters. In the first few years Going up the mountain to hunt, I met a big bug, and my son lost his life. Although the old man escaped, he injured his foot. Now the old couple are old and homeless. The last one left is Grandma Zhang’s family. You know her situation, only her An old woman led a picked up grandson."

Tang Shou nodded. These households met the conditions. He promised to give them the kangs in the next few days. After Xiong Tiexiongzhu finished his work, he would give the kangs to the old households in the village. .

Although he wants to disclose the method of panning the kang in his hand, it is not just a big thorn, and he will teach it to someone.Instead, we need to find an opportunity, which is suitable for publicizing the method of dissipating the kang, helping more people, and allowing him to get the reputation he deserves.He has roughly made up his mind about this matter, and is just waiting for the opportunity to arrive.

"County magistrate, this kang is really a good thing. I heard that it can be heated overnight. When you get up in the morning and touch it under the mattress, it is hot." It's just that this kang is too expensive, five taels of silver for a pavement, he felt a little distressed, but thinking of its benefits, he gritted his teeth and planned to pave the pavement.Unexpectedly, when the servants at home went looking for it, they found out that there was a long queue for such an expensive kang.Many people are even willing to increase the price in order to sleep on the kang earlier.

Yulin Town is a poor town with no oil and water. As long as the county magistrate and county magistrate are not devoid of conscience, they will not live very well.So they can still introduce five taels of silver for a paved kang, but they think that the price increase is just soil embryos. After winter and spring, Yulin Town will have soil embryos, so they feel that it is not worth it and do not want to waste the money.

Therefore, the county magistrate's family has not put on a kang until now.

Seeing the envious eyes of the county magistrate, the county magistrate only felt that the kang was more comfortable.

"My lord." The county magistrate flattered him, "Isn't your main house going to be panned? When will it be panned?"

The county magistrate knew what he was up to, and snorted arrogantly.

The master at the side hurriedly flattered: "My lord, you have a lot of friendship with the butcher of the Xiong family. If you ask him, he will definitely sell your face, and he will definitely push the others to give you the kang first. You see, you are both right and left." If you want to lose your face, if you don't, then bring us along, and I will accept the kindness of your lord, and ride the saddle."

The county magistrate had this idea long ago, and he was very comfortable being complimented, so he said with a casual smile: "I know how to flatter. But let me explain to you in advance that you have to get money for the kang, and if you don't get money, it's five taels of silver." I don't have such a big face for the pit." Others would have to pay more if they wanted to get on the kang first, but he didn't increase the price and just jumped in the line to grab the first place, which is enough face.

"That's right, there's no one in Pan Kang who doesn't give money." The two agreed repeatedly.

The county magistrate changed into plainclothes, and the county magistrate and chief secretary led several arresters who were also in plainclothes to Xinghua Village.

I thought that Xinghua Village would be cold and lonely at this time, but I didn't expect that not only was it not, but the villagers were standing at the entrance of the village talking in groups, discussing something.

After a while, I saw a bullock cart pulling some soil embryos towards Xinghua Village. Several men were sitting on the bullock cart talking, and the villagers were a little flattering towards them.

The county magistrate was shocked, and couldn't help asking: "When did this little Xinghua village become so rich that five taels of silver can be sold on the kang."

The county magistrate was equally astonished, "That's impossible. As far as I know, before the Xiong's family, there was only one Luo family in Xinghua Village that was in the tofu business, and the Luo family just had a better life than the people in Xinghua Village. , the kang of five taels of silver is definitely unaffordable."

"Come on, let's go to Xiong's house and ask what's going on."

Standing at the door of Xiong's house is a pair, wearing a thick cotton coat and a wolf fur vest. The most noticeable thing is the leather boots on his feet, which are a style I have never seen before. They wore thin-soled leather boots to keep them warm.

"Excuse me, is this Xiong's house?" the county magistrate asked.

Xiong Tie and Xiongzhu returned to Xinghua Village after paying deposits for a few households in the town who were too busy these days, and now took the soil embryos to make kangs for the three orphaned old people in the village.

Tang Shou had just sent the two brothers away, but before he turned around, he heard someone looking for his house. He saw a few people dressed in rich and noble manners, and there were a few people who looked like guards behind him, so he thought they were from a wealthy scholar family. .

"This is Xiong's family. I am his husband. Who are they?"

Before the county magistrate could introduce himself, Xiong Zhuangshan strode out when he heard that there seemed to be a visitor at home in the yard.

"County magistrate?"

Tang Shou froze for a moment, and hurriedly smiled and let him into the room, "It's the county magistrate, please come in quickly, thank you for your help with the last time."

"It should be, it should be."

What happened last time, the county magistrate not only helped Xiong Zhuangshan go through the relevant procedures overnight, but also dealt with the dogs in the camp, and also found out who framed him behind him and told them.Regardless of whether it is for King Zhenbei's face or not, this is a big favor.

After inviting people into the house and pouring a few bowls of honey water, the county magistrate asked, "Just now I saw an ox cart pulling soil embryos into the depths of Xinghua Village. I don't know who made such a big deal."

Xiong Zhuangshan said: "In the past few days, a grandma froze to death in the village. My husband was kind, so he gave the kang to those lonely old people in the village who had no children to take care of. We are weak and cautious, so we can only do it. That's it."

Something glittering and translucent flashed through the county magistrate's eyes.

Tang Shou put a few plates of walnut cakes in front of the table of the magistrate and others, and said with a smile: "This is made at home, please adults if you don't mind trying it."

"Xiong's pastries are well-known in our Yulin Town, and I am lucky to be able to eat them. How could I dislike them?"

Tang Shou didn't leave in a hurry, he looked at the county magistrate's appearance just now, he was obviously moved, he was not an evil official who disregarded the lives of the people.

In recent years, the county magistrate has not made much achievements in Yulin Town, but he has never done anything that angers people, which is not easy.

After all, the whole town is poor, and if the county magistrate doesn't do things to oppress the people, he won't be able to find money.This is also the reason why those who framed the Xiong's family secretly bought a few servants in the county government without even saying hello to the county magistrate.It was really too poor, and being a clerk in the yamen usually didn't get any benefits, but now someone gave him a little, and the money moved people's hearts.

As for the county magistrate himself, generally speaking, he is still good, his conscience is still there, and his official heart is still there. Such a person is someone he can talk about cooperation with.

"Xiong Fulang's craftsmanship is great. It's no wonder that the gentlemen and ladies of the rich families like it, and I enjoy eating it." The county magistrate and others praised it repeatedly.

"Thank you for the compliment from the county magistrate." Tang Shou seemed to be unintentional at this time, but he wanted to test it out: "I heard that my lord is an official from Tokyo, and the food in Tokyo is comparable to that of a man who is used to delicious food in Tokyo. I really have such a feeling in my heart." Be proud."

Hearing the disappointment and disappointment in the eyes of the county magistrate of Tokyo, he immediately smiled and said, "I am not from Tokyo. Xiong Fulang's craftsmanship is no worse than the Tokyo pastries I have eaten."

With just a few words, Tang Shou guessed roughly.This county magistrate has just arrived in Tokyo, without the support of a powerful family with deep roots in the local area, he doesn't know who he offended, and was demoted by the officials, feeling depressed.This kind of low-level and outward-looking people usually hold back their energy and want to go back to Tokyo.

With such a heart, Tang Shou and him have the same ultimate goal no matter what their reasons are.One is for merit, and the other is for world-famous reputation.

"Forgive me for your boldness. I don't know if my lord still has the intention to go back to Tokyo. Maybe the grass people can help me a little bit." Tang Shou whispered to the county magistrate in a voice that only two people could hear.

The county magistrate stared at Tang Shou in a daze.The first thing that comes to mind is the forces behind the Xiong family, the most powerful person in Tokyo stands there, with the same surname as the royal family, if you really want to help him, it's nothing to go back to Tokyo.

The county magistrate couldn't help but get excited at the thought of returning to Tokyo.Then those former colleagues who looked down on him back then, made trouble when he left, and laughed at him, what kind of expression should be on their faces, and their blood boiled just thinking about it.

The county magistrate said to the people who came behind him: "Since we came to Xinghua Village and happened to encounter this incident, we can't pretend that we don't know. Wait for some people to visit the homes of the widows and orphans, and tell Lizheng to cooperate fully with the villagers. Xiong family, let the villagers know that we are still thinking about them as officials."

The county magistrate and the others didn't wink, and left immediately.

As soon as they left, the county magistrate immediately changed his attitude, and immediately said: "If Xiong Erlang is willing to intercede with King Zhenbei for me so that I can return to Tokyo again, I will definitely repay this kindness with all my strength."

Tang Shou shook his head and said, "It's better to ask for others than to ask for yourself. The county magistrate has never thought of relying on himself."

The county magistrate suddenly smiled wryly, and said shyly: "To tell you the truth, I want to go back to Tokyo again in my dreams, but our Yulin Town is a poor yamen, and I can't do such evil things as stealing people's fat and anointing. A lot of gold and silver activities are related, but no one gives activities, how can I return to Tokyo."

"Then if you do a well-known event that saves the lives of many people, will it contribute to your return to Tokyo?"

"Of course it can..." The county magistrate suddenly stopped talking, and stared at Tang Shou with wide eyes. A smart person can understand at a glance, he already understood Tang Shou's meaning.

Many people have been frozen to death in the cold winters over the years, and each prefecture and city will report a huge number. The government is also very troubled by this, but there has been no good strategy to solve it. This reduces the number of people who freeze to death.

If under his governance, their Xinghua Village can guarantee that no one will be frozen to death, or only a few people will freeze to death, then compared with the huge number of frozen deaths in various towns, it is impossible not to attract the attention of the housekeeper.Fewer people freeze to death in a poor town than in a rich town. What does this mean? It means that the county magistrate is capable, well-governed, and a great talent, and he should be reused.And the people will pass on his good name by word of mouth.

As an official, who doesn't want to be admired by the people and praised by generations to come, just thinking of this possibility, the county magistrate trembles with excitement, wishing to start preparations immediately.Fortunately, he still had some sense, and restrained himself: "But how can the yamen pay five taels of silver for this kang, there are more than a dozen villages in Yulin Town, and there are not a few old people who are lonely and widowed."

Tang Shoudao: "My lord, if the yamen wants to set up a kang, why do you need to buy soil embryos from me? You can organize public officials to transport the soil embryos by themselves. The soil embryos don't need money in Tokyo. You can do whatever you want. Our yamen only pays for shipping and business trips." Food and lodging for public servants. When the earthen embryos are brought back, the yamen asks me to wait for these old people to make kangs, so isn’t it reasonable to just pay me the wages?”

Yes, this can save a lot of money, and the whole town can afford it.

"If the yamen has difficulty in funding the kang, I can give half of the wages of the kang. After all, it is doing a good deed. But if it is free, even if I agree, the workers on the kang will not agree. After all, they still have to rely on this to support their family, and they don’t even know how to live if they can’t get a penny back, so how can they have the heart to help others.”

The county magistrate immediately laughed, knowing what Tang Shou was up to, so he gained a good reputation.

"Xiong Erlang, everyone said that if you survive a catastrophe, you will have good fortune. This sentence is indeed true. With such a husband, your luck lies behind." The magistrate smiled and said: "Then I don't know what Mr. Xiong plans What to do? As far as I know, this kang skill is still your unique skill, are you going to hand it over?"

Tang Shou also smiled a little profoundly: "If it is helpful to the adult's career, it is not impossible for the grassroots to be handed over to the officials, but I think the adults should not let the grassroots pay for nothing. This kind of life-saving prescription must give the grassroots a reputation."

As Tang Shou said, he blinked slyly, "If you can get the praise from the officials, the grassroots should be willing to give it with both hands."

These words have clearly stated that it is impossible to hand it over to the county magistrate or others, but if the official makes an order, he is willing to give it with both hands.It's just that he has given in his housekeeping skills, so it's not too much for the officials to give him a reputation.

To be praised by the officials is not as simple as praise. In the future, many people who are not open-minded in business will have to go around his house, not daring to bump into him. Knowing that, it will naturally attract more people to Xinghua Village to do business with his family.

In this way, after the county magistrate and Tang Shou exchanged a knowing look, they became allies.

"If you want to make a bed for the whole town, you and the two Xiong brothers are not enough. Have you thought about what to do?"

"There is a way, but it may be necessary to borrow the prestige of the yamen." Tang Shou said: "I plan to select a few good people in the village, and hand over the skills to them, but it's not for nothing. Each person will give me one or two dollars. Tuition fees in silver, and signed a confidentiality agreement not to be leaked, unless I disclose it myself. Of course, there is a premise for all of this, we need to be given to us first, and we can take over other jobs after we finish our work. These are all written in the contract If there is any violation, the legal responsibility will be investigated."

"In this way, even in the future, even if the kang method is made public, they will not suffer a loss. After all, they will not only get back the tuition fees but also earn money if they only give the kang to those widowed households. After that, they will still be able to earn money." It won't make them feel that he should be rewarded for helping them, and raise white-eyed wolves.

"Cooperating with the Yamen, the prestige of the Yamen intimidates them, the villagers are really afraid and dare not do anything. In fact, I really dare not hand over their skills without taking advantage of the Yamen's shareholder wind, for fear that they will turn around and tell me. But now that there is a yamen standing there, these ordinary people really dare not have bad intentions."

"Hahahaha..." The county magistrate laughed and said, "Xiong Fulang, you really surprised me. Xiong Erlang has picked up a treasure. I didn't feel anything when I heard about your reputation as the snail husband, but now I know the truth. True to its name."

After the negotiation was settled, the county magistrate was sent away, Tang Shoumei's nose was bubbling.

He whispered: "Well, I'm very good, so I can help the people I want to help, fulfill my kindness, and talk about the benefits I deserve. How can there be such a kind and beautiful person like me in the world?" A man is simply the nemesis of all gentlemen, and the dream of all little ladies..." The word "lover" was swallowed just right, Tang Shou knew he had slipped his words, and looked flatteringly at Xiong Zhuangshan.

It can be said that Xiong Zhuangshan refused his flattery, and insisted on making him realize his profound mistakes.

While Tang Shou was in a daze, he heard Xiong Zhuangshan's low voice saying: "Shuang'er and the little lady don't know how to have sex."

The love of receiving is not sexual happiness.

The Xiong family does not participate in the work of the kang in the yamen. They continue to do private work. Although it is expensive, the noble families in the town can't do it, because the person who takes over the yamen work does not know when they will finish it. It's next winter.Furthermore, some people think that an apprentice is an apprentice after all, and a master is a master.All Taoist disciples starved to death of the master, so the master would teach all the skills to the disciples without hiding his secrets. The Xiong family must have hidden the secrets and did not teach them. The kang they made must be better than the disciples.As for the salary of the master is higher than that of the apprentice, isn't this a matter of course?

The author has something to say: Please rest assured, Xiao Shou is definitely not the Holy Father, he is one of our thousands of ordinary kind-hearted people.
