A young husband dressed as a violent butcher

The ruined temple was filled with a strong disgusting stench, groans and groans were intertwined, mixed with a few curses from time to time, the air was dull and oppressive, full of the breath of death .

The three children shivered and squeezed between Li Si and Li Si's wife, looking terrified and shrinking.

The man with a big belly stood in front of them, the lust in his eyes was undisguised, and he said in a tone that was sure to win: "I have a crush on this little lady, I will give you five taels of silver, and I will take her away."

Li Si's eldest daughter, Mrs. Li, is 12 years old. Although she is not well-nourished and has a shriveled figure, she can't help but become more and more slim day by day.

Although they were fleeing famine, with the ten taels of silver in their hands, they could afford to live in the most inferior inn and drink thin rice soup.The eldest lady is at the age of knowing Mu Shaoai. Although fleeing famine is hard, she can still eat and drink, but she can't let go of her girlish nature. Even if the clothes are worn out, she must be clean and tidy. Her face and hair have been carefully groomed. Her parents and her two younger siblings were so unkempt.

Mrs. Li once persuaded Mrs. Li, but Mrs. Li refused to listen, and cried aggrievedly, saying that her mother was not clean and buried in the house, and she was not allowed to clean up.The days are hard enough, her husband and wife have always felt that letting the child follow them all the way to flee famine is very sorry for the child, so they don't want to be tough against the eldest lady in this matter, lest the child who grows up and has his own ideas will be depressed and regenerated Seriously ill, what should their family do?

Unexpectedly, something happened. A few days ago, their family of three walked to this strange town. It happened that an old and fat rich gentry took a fancy to the big lady who was walking on the street. He stopped her and flirted with her.The eldest lady scolded him, but the old man didn't feel that the eldest lady had a hot temper at all, on the contrary, he felt that such a woman was more interesting, so he entangled him.

Naturally, Li Si would not sell his daughter, but the money and food that he carried with him were robbed the next day. Li Si went to the Yamen to report the case. Angrily let him go back and wait for the news.Li Si and his wife naturally knew that the money would not be recovered.

But they can't get back, how their family lives, what they eat and drink, Xinghua Village is still far away in the sky, how can they get there.

At this time, the rich man came to pester her again and offered five taels of silver to buy the eldest lady.

The eldest lady was still a child after all, she was so frightened that she couldn't even speak.The rich man was filled with infinite satisfaction when he saw the little leopard who had bared its teeth and claws a few days ago, but today it has become a meowing little milk cat.

He saw Li Si, who was in charge of the house, hung his head and said nothing, quietly thinking about something.The rich man knew that he must be tempted, and who could not be tempted by this matter.Either the whole family died of starvation here, or the eldest wife of his family was sold in exchange for rations, and the whole family's lives were saved.What's more, although he is older, he is rich and a bit snobbish, and he would like to stuff his little lady into his room, but he still doesn't like it.

The rich man seemed to have seen the little lady in her wedding gown being carried into his room through a side door, and he was gentle and tender to him every day from then on.The more he thought about it, the more complacent he became, and he lifted his chin and said, "I advise you to be more sensible, take the money and leave quickly, there are a lot of movies sold to the little girl for five taels, don't toast or eat and eat fine wine!"

Li Si still bowed his head and did not speak. In the eyes of Mrs. Li, her father was thinking seriously, and looking at the current situation, it is very likely that she would really sell her.

She would rather become a monk, shave her hair and become a nun, and accompany the ancient Buddha with blue lanterns every day, than marry this old man who is older than her father.

Mrs. Li felt a burst of courage that she didn't know where it came from, she broke away from her mother, rushed up and hugged the rich man's calf, endured the disgusting and greasy sweat stains on the rich man's body, and bit down hard.

"Ah..." the rich man screamed and kicked Mrs. Li away.

Li Si was overwhelmed by the action of the eldest daughter, and rushed forward. Before the rich man could react, he grabbed his daughter and slapped her down. The eldest lady's teeth touched her tongue, and there was blood from her mouth Flow down.

Mrs. Li couldn't believe that the man with a ferocious face and a fierce attitude who beat her like an enemy was the father who had never said anything harsh to her since he came back seven years ago.

The grandfather in front of me was so strange, like a ghost, one slap was not enough and he gave her another slap, and cursed viciously: "This master is able to look at you because you have been blessed for several lifetimes. Don't hesitate to be lucky, and dare to hurt the nobleman."

Turning around, facing the rich man, Li Si changed into another face, completely lost the integrity and arrogance that a soldier should have, and became a humble, servile dog slave.

Li Si flatteringly said to the rich man: "Master, you are able to appreciate her. It is the blessing of this little bitch. Little bitches don't know how to cherish blessings. This villain will give you a good training. I promise to teach you well. Tomorrow night I will send it to your house."

"Master, our family will rely on you from now on. With you standing here, where should we go?"

Seeing Li Si's attitude, the rich man's face softened a little, and he said: "People... It's okay, don't break your face, I just like this face."

Li Si hurriedly replied: "Don't worry, the master likes it, and the villain will not dare to break it."

The rich man nodded and said: "Very well, I will wait at the mansion. When you send the man over, I will give you the money."

"Tomorrow, tomorrow will definitely be delivered."

The rich man was very satisfied with Li Si's attitude and left proudly.

As soon as the rich man left, Mrs. Li quit, and burst into tears, "I... I don't want to marry that bad old man, if you insist on selling me to him, I will... I will kill you it's here."

"Then hit!" In an instant, all the humbleness was swept away on Li Si's face, and he was the pillar of the Li family again.

Mrs. Li said this just to threaten her father and mother, so she was not willing to hit her.

"Miss, you are 12 years old this year. All the young ladies in the village are married at the age of fourteen or fifteen. Why are you still so ignorant?" Li Si has never been so disappointed with Mrs. Li.All along, he thought that other men could feed his wife and children, but he couldn't. It was because he was incapable, so he never said a word of seriousness to his family members loudly.

The eldest lady was wailing, and the fourth lady Li was sobbing and holding her daughter. The two children seemed to understand, but they also knew that this was a bad thing, and their tears were streaming down.

"Don't cry, crying won't solve any problems, come and discuss it." Li Si said bitterly: "You two young ones also come here, our family is like this, eight or nine years old should be sensible .”

Two children gathered around and sat opposite Li Si.

Li Si said deeply, as if he was looking at them for the last time: "You also know that we are penniless now, if we don't get any more money, everyone will starve to death."

"Right now, our family can only sell people." The eldest lady sobbed in despair when she heard this, and Li Si continued to analyze the current situation for everyone, regardless of whether the children could understand or not, as if she hadn't heard it. "Father, it's not that I don't want to sell myself. First of all, I hurt my feet, I struggle to walk, and my tendons are broken. Let alone work, I can't lift heavy objects. Secondly, I am old, and no one will buy me after I sell it. Besides, if I really sold myself, leaving you, my mother, alone, I would never be able to walk to Xinghua Village with your three children, and maybe today's incident will happen again on the way."

"As for your mother, she is a woman just like the eldest lady and the third lady. Where can she be sold to ensure that the master's family will not care about them and ruin them. They are all low-born, and it's not like letting the master's family do whatever they want. If it is resold again, if it falls into the land of fireworks, it will be worse than death."

The two younger ones don't quite understand it yet, but they know that you can't go to the place of fireworks, and a woman might as well die if she goes there.As for the eldest lady, she was already sensible, and every word Li Si said would only add to her despair.

Just when the eldest lady thought that Li Si must sell her, Li Si suddenly changed his words and said to Erlang with difficulty: "So, so my father's plan is to sell you, Erlang. You are a man, and you are sold At most, he is just a little servant and servant. If you work hard, you can still live, but if you sell the little lady in the family, it will kill them."

Mrs. Li's crying suddenly choked up, and she looked at her father with blurred eyes, almost thinking that she was hallucinating.

Li Si didn't have time to care about her at all at the moment, he only had Erlang in his eyes.

"Erlang, this is the reason why my father decided to sell you. But, but you are a person after all, not a cat or a dog, but the biological son of my father and my mother. My father still wants to ask for your opinion on this matter. If you agree , Father will sell you. If you don’t agree, your life is yours, and Father has no right to insist. Then our family will count as far as we go. If we really can’t survive, we will die together.” Li Si said, a man shed tears.

He knew that if Erlang was not sold, their whole family would die. This was a reality, not a mere script, and there was no such thing as a corner.Is there still a small number of people who die on the road of fleeing from famine every year? Fleeing from famine is piled up with human lives.

Although Erlang is only nine years old, but in this family situation, Erlang is more sensible than ordinary children.He is also a boy, and he was well educated by his father. From a very young age, he knew that when he grew up, he would support the family, protect his mother and father, and take care of his sisters.

Now he thinks that when he grows up, it's time for him to take up his responsibility and protect his family.He's a man, that's what he should do.

Erlang said in a childlike voice: "Father, I am willing. After selling Erlang, my mother, father, elder sister and three younger sisters can all live, Erlang is willing. What's more, Erlang is just a servant. If the family man doesn’t work, Erlang is just working in a different way, and he can still eat, Erlang is willing. Father and mother don’t want to cry.”

"Erlang, don't hate your elder sister. Even if there is no such thing, we lose our money and cannot survive, Father will still sell you. This is not because of your elder sister's decision."

"I know." Erlang replied sensiblely.

Li Si and Li Si's wife cried even harder, and the family of four hugged their heads and cried loudly for a while, this is life and separation!

That night, taking advantage of the dead of night, Li Si took his wife and three children and ran away overnight.Because Li Si has always behaved very humble in front of the rich, as if he was an incompetent man who was very willing to sell his daughter, which confused the rich, so that the rich didn't send anyone to watch them, so they escaped by luck.

But the rich man found out that they had left, so he sent someone to look for them nearby, but if he couldn't find them, he just cursed and let it go. After all, Li Si and the others didn't take his money, so he didn't lose anything.If the little lady is gone, there will be another one. Although Mrs. Li is good-looking, she is far from a beauty who has been mistaken for life at first sight, so that's all.

Li Si and the others escaped and sold Erlang in a town.Erlang was still too young, and if he wanted to find a conscientious master, the money would not be very good, so he only gave two taels of silver.

When Erlang was taken away, this man who had never knelt before anyone, knelt down in front of Erlang's master.

"Master, please give the child enough to eat. If there is anything wrong, you can beat and scold him. For the child's sake, save your life." Li Si kowtowed twice, "Can you Tell the villain where the owner lives, and when the villain earns money in the future, he will redeem the child."

The buyer was a running businessman, who was on guard against Li Si, and said: "Tell this boy where you live, and when he grows up, let him find you."

It is said to be a redemption, but there are a few who sell their children and can still redeem them. If they have that ability, how can they still be reduced to the point of selling children.So the running business didn't believe it from the bottom of my heart, so I said vaguely.

"Well, Erlang, you have to remember that my father's name is Li Sheng, my mother's name is Wanqing, and the place our family is going to is called Xinghua Village. When my mother and father go there, no matter whether they can find Xiong Zhuangshan or not, they will never come again. Let's go, I'll be waiting for you there."

Erlang's eyes were red, but he didn't cry, he nodded like a little man and said: "I've made a note, father, don't worry, when I grow up, I will go to you guys if I have money."

"Okay, father and mother are waiting for you." Li Si burst into tears.

"Let's go." The runner led the little Erlang, and Erlang turned his head three times a step. The tears that had been in his eyes since he was sold finally fell down, until the runner handed over a handkerchief, "Wipe your face." Only then did Erlang wipe away his tears, and then he stopped crying.

"What a sensible child." Running Shang sighed softly.

Erlang lost his sight. Li Si said to the remaining two children: "You must remember that Erlang is willing to sell his own for us to survive. All the hardships he has suffered are for us. Yes. In the future, which one of your two sisters is lucky enough to survive, or has money, don’t forget that Redeemer will come back, he is for you.”

After Li Si finished speaking, he looked at the eldest daughter and said to her: "Miss, you are the most sorry for Erlang. Although my father told Erlang that he didn't want to do this, it was just to prevent Erlang from remembering you. You are good." Think about it, if it weren't for that bastard of yours who would pester us, if he didn't pester us, how would we be eye-catching, and how could the money be robbed. It's even very possible that the money was robbed by that bastard, you Just remember that you owe Erlang a life."

The eldest lady was crying so hard, it was the first time she obeyed her father and mother like this, "I will never forget my second brother in my life, I will make good money and redeem my brother as soon as possible."

Two taels of silver is actually not enough for Li Sisi and his family to go to Xinghua Village, but he is not willing to sell his wife. He is already inhumane enough to sell his son, and he can no longer sell the women and make them live in prostitution.So in the future, Li Si let them eat grass roots if he had grass roots, let them eat rotten vegetable leaves if he could pick up rotten vegetables leaves, and let them eat some rotten vegetables leaves when he had nothing else. No one had any objection to this.

After her second brother was sold, Mrs. Li grew up overnight. She made the clothes of herself and the third sister dirty, and her hair was disheveled.I don't know where I found something, and I painted her third sister and A Niang with pockmarked faces, which makes people unappetizing.When I get something to eat, I no longer think about myself first, but give it to my father, mother and third sister first. I am often hungry, or eat some grass roots and bark.

She remembered that she owed her life to her second brother, so she consciously assumed the responsibility of her second brother, and no longer regarded herself as a little lady.

Xiong Zhuangshan and Tang Shou sat at the bottom, King Zhenbei sat on the main seat, more than a dozen guards stood behind him, one of them stood closely behind King Zhenbei, before King Zhenbei spoke, he would always subconsciously look at it. he.

The big silly dog ​​on the ground was lazily barking towards the roof suddenly, Xiong Zhuangshan lightly rolled his eyelids, and shouted: "Shut up, what's the matter with you, aren't we here? If you bark again, I'll throw you away!" go out."

Lazy looked at the roof very vigilantly, Xiong Zhuangshan said: "They are all guests at home, don't bite randomly."

Lazy then obediently lay down at Tang Shou's feet again and stopped barking.

King Zhenbei smiled and said: "It's a good dog, and understands human nature."

Xiong Zhuangshan replied: "Caomin injured his hand and couldn't draw his bow and arrow, so he could only point at it when he went up the mountain, so he should know a little bit."

The reason why Xiong Zhuangshan was able to retire was because he could no longer use his hands.King Zhenbei knew about this, so he asked a few questions with concern, and Xiong Zhuangshan answered briefly.

King Zhenbei had never seen Xiong Zhuangshan so taciturn and out of touch. If it wasn't for his benefactor, he would definitely think he was ignorant.But with this level of status, he could only bear it, but he was unwilling to talk to him, but said to Tang Shou: "Two or eight points, I have already told the official, and you are allowed, you can do anything else. There are other requirements."

King Zhenbei had read Tang Shou's detailed plan. It included prescriptions and specific promotion of the factory, including the four experimental sites that were used as experiments first.After looking at it with the officials, he found a confidant, and they all felt that this was the perfect plan, so they made this trip on purpose.I didn't expect that the person who came up with these things was illiterate, felt disappointed, and gave up other thoughts in his heart.

King Zhenbei knew that Tang Shou was the one who came up with the idea, and wanted to see him on purpose. Tang Shou was afraid of causing other troubles, and then asked him to go to Tokyo to work for them, so he deliberately acted like a rural villager who had never seen a big event in the village. .Shrunken behind Xiong Zhuangshan, King Zhenbei trembled when he saw him, and cried in fright when he spoke to him.The words were deliberately vulgar, and when he heard the question from the King of Zhenbei, he replied according to the character: "If you want, we also need the management right of Yulin Town, which is the kind of my family. What my family means has nothing to do with you!" Tang Shou expressed his straightforwardness and greed.

King Zhenbei was not happy, and frowned slightly.He glanced calmly at the person standing behind him, who nodded subtly, "Yes."

"Oh, that's great." Tang Shou yelled vulgarly, and shivered behind Xiong Zhuangshan when he saw the look in the eyes of King Shangzhenbei.

The king of Zhenbei was really not interested in talking with a wood and a country village, so he asked someone to take a pen and paper and write a contract for them to see.

Xiong Zhuangshan pointed to Yu Feng who was standing by and waited on him, and said: "Caomin and Fulang are illiterate, so ask the servants at home to read them."

"can."

The contract is the same as before, nothing needs to be managed by the Xiong family, and the Xiong family can collect [-]% of the profit just by sitting.One more thing is added, the government of Yulin town paid for the construction of the factory, but it is considered the private property of the Xiong family, and has nothing to do with the government, and the government is no longer allowed to open a shop in the town to do paper business.

After Xiong Zhuangshan signed and affixed the contract with the official seal, the contract was left in duplicate for the Xiong family, and King Zhenbei left with his guards.

After walking away, the man who stood closest to King Zhenbei when he was at Xiong's house was respectfully invited into the carriage by King Zhenbei.

"It really disappoints me." The man sighed and said, "I thought how clever a person would be if he could come up with such wonderful ideas, but he is so rude and illiterate. Although Xiong Zhuangshan can think of some clever ideas, It’s a bit desirable, but I’m so disappointed that I can’t read or speak clearly.”

It turned out that this person was actually a government official. He was attracted by the plan for toilet paper, thinking that he would find two powerful people, and he didn't want to compare one with the other.

"Why should it be a pity for the officials, Xiong Zhuangshan can also be a merchant."

"That's right, even though you have two points of ability, but these two points of ability are enough for a merchant."

King Zhenbei said with a smile: "For their villagers, a businessman with two points of ability is very great, and the officials don't need to listen to those rumors."

The king of Zhenbei and the officials' impression of Xiong Zhuangshan and Tang Shou because of this trip is that they have two points of ability to be merchants, and they cannot be reused.So no matter who mentions Xiong Zhuangshan and Tang Shou in the future, no matter what good words they say, the officials and King Zhenbei will only think of the two vulgar and illiterate countrymen, and they will never have the idea of ​​calling for security.
