Chapter 45 The Grain Requisition is Over (Please recommend tickets, ask for monthly tickets!)
The village chief thought that there was another warrior in his village, but after thinking about it, he was still a little hesitant because he was a foreigner after all.
"Will he say yes?"
"Yes, he has helped the villagers treat the warrior's plague, and he won't leave easily."
Wang Sheng knew very well that Xu Qu treated Wu Zhewen in the first place to stay, so he would be willing to do so.
"If he doesn't go, come find me again!"
"OK!"
The village chief left happily and didn't come back after that, presumably he had already persuaded Xu Qu.
The next day, Wang Sheng heard a burst of messy footsteps, including some horseshoes.
There are no horses in the village, and he knows that this is probably the food collection team.
I thought it would take a few more days, but I didn't expect to arrive so early.
Wang Sheng thought about it and followed.
The village chief Zhou Zhengwen obviously had already made preparations and had already prepared the food.
When these grains were transported before, they were deliberately left behind.
Zhou Zhengwen stood cautiously in front of dozens of people in military armor, and said, "My lord, this is the grain handed over from our Qingshan Village!"
With that said, some young men in the village brought out some grain.
Grain is paid on a head-to-head basis, and the quantity is also in accordance with Jianghe King Zhou Yuanqing's regulations.
But obviously the people who came to collect the grain this time did not intend to leave just like this.
A man who seemed to be the leader stood up and said, "Old man, who are you going to send this little thing to? Our brothers are trying to protect you in front. Is this your sincerity?"
Obviously, Zhou Zhengwen had expected it a long time ago, bent his waist again, and said respectfully: "My lord, of course we know, so we specially prepared more."
With that said, someone brought up some grain again, this time more than before.
"Old man, it seems that you have inquired a lot, but you have inquired a lot, you should know our requirements!"
Said the leader waved his hand.
The people under him are about to separate. Obviously, this is a search-style "grain collection".
Zhou Zhengwen quickly said: "My lord, our village has suffered from evil floods before, and now there are not many more. We also want to..."
The village head still wants to explain.
The leading sergeant didn't care: "Stop talking nonsense, I don't care if you are evil or not, get out of here!"
As he spoke, he wanted to reach out and push Zhou Zhengwen down.
But before his hand touched Zhou Zhengwen, he was imprisoned by the other hand.
"My lord, it's not good to attack an old man!"
This person is Xu Qu who has been standing beside Zhou Zhengwen.
When Zhou Zhengwen came to look for him yesterday, he immediately agreed. This was an opportunity to show his holiness in front of others. How could he miss it so easily? He was already suffocated after being imprisoned for so long.
It's just that yesterday the village chief told him that if they can solve it by themselves, they don't need to do anything.
Otherwise, he would have done it from the very beginning, so why wait until now?
But he knew that the word would definitely have a chance to make a move.
He has been traveling in Dazhou for a long time, doesn't he know the character of those sergeants?
The Great Zhou declined, and it wasn't just the royal family's strength that declined.
The army is no longer what it used to be.
In the past, the Great Zhou was able to be unified, not only because of the Great Master sitting in charge.
The army also contributed.
I just don't know how much of those army formations that can compete with the great masters for a short time can be used by Da Zhou's army.
If it was the former army, unless he was a grandmaster, he really wouldn't dare to step into this muddy water.
Of course, the former army of the Great Zhou would not do such a thing.
As for the people in front of me...
It's just a stepping stone for him to "show his holiness". A group of bullying people will not dare to do anything if they are intimidated at will.
The same is true.
The leading sergeant is also a low-level figure, and other things may not work.
But when it comes to observing words and expressions, no one knows better than him.
The moment Xu Qu grabbed him, the huge force made him understand Xu Qu's identity.
"Master Warrior!"
The leading sergeant softened instantly.
He has collected a lot of food in the past few days, and a lot of warriors have been blown up in some remote places. He knows very well that it is fine for ordinary villages to be domineering. For villages with warriors, those who cannot understand In this case, the tragic death of colleagues is the consequence.
Some warriors dare not offend King Jianghe publicly, but who cares if you kill an ordinary soldier secretly, especially in this period when King Jianghe himself is in danger.
The leader immediately became cautious when he spoke.
"It was us who offended you, Lord Warrior, we are also working for King Jianghe..."
Even in the face of warriors and sergeants, they are unwilling to give up. They have to take things back. Those who have things will not care about them. They will be rewarded at most. If they have nothing, they may not escape death.
Immediately, he was afraid that Xu Qu would misunderstand, so he immediately added a sentence.
"Of course, we must take as much as we should!"
Xu Qu let go of the leader, then glanced at the village chief, then at Wang Sheng in the crowd.
Obviously, he was letting the village head and Wang Sheng decide.
Wang Sheng pretended not to see it.
The village head said directly: "My lord, take the food away!"
From the very beginning, the village chief didn't intend to use the warrior's power to hand over the food, and he prepared a lot more, and even thought about entering the house to search for food.
He invited Xu Qu just because he didn't want bullying to happen.
But now the situation is much better than expected, and the warriors are full of deterrence.
The sergeant was overjoyed to hear that.
Then he looked at his subordinates.
"Hurry up and move the food, you are not allowed to take too much, follow the rules, you know?"
"Know, know!"
The subordinates nodded again and again, and warriors appeared, how dare they be presumptuous.
These sergeants are not completely useless, at least they are very strong, and they quickly carried the first batch of food that the village chief took out.
The leader said a few words to Xu Qu respectfully again, and then left quickly.
When they got outside the village, they put the food away and urged them to leave immediately. His men were a little puzzled.
"Boss, why are you in such a hurry?"
I have never been so flustered when I met a warrior before.
"Just leave if you are told, why are you talking so much nonsense!"
So the group moved forward at an unprecedented speed.
And the leader is still recalling the eyes of the warrior just now.
Others may not have noticed, but he did.
That martial artist glanced at the crowd when he was finally asking for opinions.
Not only that, although the warrior helped the village to get ahead, he could see that the villagers respected the warrior, but he didn't have that sense of familiarity with fellow villagers. Obviously, the warrior might not be from Qingshan Village.
He is not a warrior of Qingshan Village, but he needs to ask the opinion of an ordinary village chief of Qingshan Village.
Plus that subconscious glance...
The leader felt that he had guessed something.
There is probably a stronger warrior in Qingshan Village, because only a stronger warrior can subdue another warrior.
It's better to keep this kind of village as far away as possible, so that the hidden warrior won't get used to him.
Since that martial artist is unwilling to show his face, it is better for him to keep this matter in his heart.
...
In Qingshan Village on the other side, after the sergeant left, everyone dispersed.
But the village chief Zhou Zhengwen was thinking about something.
In the end, he grabbed Wang Sheng who was about to leave, and said, "Yunsheng, what do you think of our village cultivating some warriors?"
