Chapter 243: Tucun
Chapter 243 Tucun
Dugu Huanxu said: "The people I brought will build a wooden house here for a few days. I will trouble you to take care of them in the past few days. After the wooden house is completed in a few days, I will take you to Changshui Village and persuade the villagers Let's move here."
"Okay, I'll wait."
Originally, Nangong Anshan planned to take Nian Pingping back to her village in the next few days, get He Lishu, and make a clean break with her husband's family.
But Dugu Huanxu asked for her, so she had no choice but to take her back in a few days.
Many people are powerful, and the officers and soldiers are also well-trained people. The wooden house was built in three days.
Even every household has a small kitchen and toilet. The yard is also fenced in with trees so they can raise some poultry.
The next day, Nangong Anshan was picked up by Dugu Huanxu early.
When I came to Changshui Village, everyone was still living as before, without knowing that their lives would undergo earth-shaking changes in the future.
Dugu Huanxu's carriage was carrying a thousand soldiers behind him. As soon as he entered the village, he attracted the attention of the villagers and reported to Li Zheng.
So not long after Dugu Huanxu's carriage stopped, Li Zheng from Changshui Village hurried over, and other villagers followed behind him one after another.
In the past few days, he heard from the villagers that he saw outsiders on the mountain all the time, and he saw a white tiger before. He thought it was an ominous sign, but he didn't expect it to be true.
I don’t know what the official sent here is so-called. Could it be that someone in their village committed a crime?
Lizheng quickly came to Dugu Huanxu's side, and respectfully said: "My lord, I am Qiao Lizheng from Changshui Village. May I ask why so many of you came to Changshui Village today?"
Dugu Huanxu glanced at him, then at the people behind him, and said: "Qiao Lizheng, I was sent by the county government to discuss important matters today, in order to save time, I will not go to your house Now, please go to the carriage to discuss in detail.”
Jorry was afraid not to listen, and said anxiously: "Yes, my lord."
The three of them got into the carriage, and Dugu Huanxu explained his intentions.
Jorry was shocked and said: "What? Want us to move the whole village?"
He guessed that something big would happen, but he didn't expect it to be such a big thing.
Dugu Huanxu nodded: "Yes."
Qiao Lizheng has lived in Changshui Village for generations, and he is still very reluctant to ask them to move away suddenly. He still wants to fight for it, and tentatively said: "My lord, can we not move away? We have lived here all our lives , I really don’t want to move away.”
Dugu Huanxu said: "No, this is an order personally issued by His Royal Highness Li Wang."
After speaking, he took out a scroll and spread it on the table.
Jory took it over and took a closer look, and there really was the red seal of King Li on it.
Qiao Li was sighing and said: "My lord, since His Royal Highness Li Wang has issued an order, I agree to move out, but if we want to move out, where do we live? Although most of us have relatives in other villages, our Relatives, it is impossible to take us in for a long time. Now it is coming to the end of the year, we really have no place to go."
Dugu Huanxu said: "You don't have to worry about this."
As he spoke, he talked about Changshui Village's collective relocation to Liuye Village, and also said some specific compensation.
Jorry breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, as long as there is compensation, this compensation is not bad in his opinion, but...
He said: "But some villagers have struggled here all their lives, and they probably are reluctant to move."
Dugu Huanxu said: "Although you call them all over, they will definitely be willing to move after listening to my words. If they are really unwilling, I have my own way to make them agree."
In the worst case, force them to move away.
Jorry had no choice but to nod his head and said, "Okay, my lord, I'll do it now."
…
After a long while, all the villagers of Changshui Village gathered in front of Dugu Huanxu's carriage.
At this time, all the villagers were talking in low voices.
"What is Jory calling us all of a sudden? What are the officials sending here for?"
"I don't know, the whole village has come here, it must be something big."
"Anyway, it's the slack time for farming, and it's idle time, so come and listen."
"That's right, it's the first time in my life I've seen so many officials enter the village, I hope it's not a bad thing."
Seeing that everyone was almost here, Jory said loudly, "Everyone, be quiet."
Everyone fell silent instantly, looking straight at him.
Qiao Li was standing at the very front, and said loudly: "Everyone, I called you here today because I have something important to tell you. You have all seen the adults next to me. They are from the government. They said, Prince Li His Highness took a fancy to our village, and used our village for other purposes, and asked us to move the whole village together, to Liuye Village."
As soon as the voice fell, everyone was shocked.
What does this mean? Does that mean they will all be homeless?
Isn’t Liuye Village a village established by outsiders?
Why should they move there?
One person asked excitedly: "Why do you want us to move? We live well here."
"That's right, we've lived here since we were born, and we've gotten used to it, why did you suddenly want us to move?"
"I don't want to move. Our family just built a new house this year. If we move away, our money will be wasted."
"That's right, our family only drilled a well this year. If we move away, wouldn't it be for nothing?"
"I don't want to move either. I only bought two acres of land for my family this year. If I move away, I will have no land."
"Me neither."
…
Almost all the villagers said not to move.
When Dugu Huanxu saw this, his expression sank instantly.
Feng Yuan and Feng Yun suddenly pulled out the knife in his hand.
Seeing this, the remaining 1,000 soldiers also drew their knives at the same time.
Jorizheng and the villagers present had never seen such a battle, and all of them turned pale with fright.
A premonition arose in Jory's heart. These people are not going to massacre the village, are they?
Just as Jory was thinking of this, he hurriedly looked at the villagers, "You don't want to die. It was His Highness Li Wang who ordered us to move the village. If you don't obey the order, His Highness Li Wang will kill you. After all, it is your family. Is the house more important, or your family's life more important?"
Everyone couldn't help taking a few steps back at the same time, obviously also thinking of the possibility that the soldiers might massacre the village.
Some timid children have even cried.
Some women hugged their children tightly, fearing that something would happen to them.
An old lady cried and said: "His Royal Highness Li Wang can't force people like this. It's not that we don't want to move out, but that all our savings have been invested in Changshui Village. If we move away, our future will be ruined."
