Xianxia version of Water Margin

Chapter 18 I refused at first (please read more!)

Jiang Hong's flight was carried out vigorously and resolutely.

Talking about dividing fields and grain, we immediately started discussing specific plans with Song Taigong and others.

When the plan came out, the distribution of fields and grains began immediately.

Not a single moment of delay.

Organized by Song Taigong and other highly respected people in Songjiazhuang, most of the people from Songjiazhuang who were hiding came to Song Baozheng's house to claim land and grain with great trepidation.

When someone actually received a copy of the land deed and food, and some families even received a copy of the land deed for more than ten acres and more than 20 shi of food at once, the entire Songjiazhuang was boiling.

People in Songjiazhuang rushed to tell each other, saying that we had received great good luck. Jiang Yanjiang Hongfei, the owner of Shuibo Liangshan Dazhai, who had gods, Buddhas, great sages, and whose righteousness shook the sky, had forgiven everyone's debts for Song Baozheng. We will also divide the fields and grains for everyone. Everyone, go to Song Baozheng’s house to collect the fields and grains. If you go late, they may be gone!

But see: In the quaint and lonely Songjiazhuang, with the moonlight shining wildly and the Milky Way shining brightly, thousands of villagers flocked to Song Baozheng's home like a tide.

Here, the people of Songjiazhuang, regardless of gender, old or young, with different surnames, all received copies of the land deeds issued to them by Shuibo Liangshan, and received heavy amounts of food. Their lives were originally difficult, and they could not even survive. Comes hope.

I don't know who started it. After getting the land deed and food, they would come to Jiang Hongfei and kowtow to Jiang Hongfei.

At first, Jiang Hongfei refused and refused to let the people of Songjiazhuang kowtow to him.

But Song Taigong stopped Jiang Hongfei: "Your Majesty gave them a way to survive, and they should be grateful."

Song Taigong added: "The little old man was born in the first year of Jingyou. He is eighty this year. I have never seen such a benevolent and righteous man as the king in my life. He has done such great things as canceling debts, dividing fields, and sharing grain. Little old man. I never dared to think about it before, but today we are bumped into. Kowtow to the king, it doesn’t matter. We are willing to kneel three times and kowtow nine times to the king!"

After saying that, Song Taigong also wanted to give Jiang Hong a flying gift.

Jiang Hongfei persuaded the eighty-year-old man to give up the idea.

But having said that, even if Song Taigong said so, Jiang Hongfei was determined not to accept the courtesy from the people of Songjiazhuang.

Whenever someone came to kowtow to Jiang Hongfei, Jiang Hongfei would personally help them up.

But what makes Jiang Hongfei very helpless is that the people from Songjiazhuang who were pulled up by Jiang Hongfei will still kowtow respectfully to Jiang Hongfei after they have gone a little further, just like worshiping gods.

Later, those who had taken away the copy of the land deed and food but did not kowtow to Jiang Hongfei also ran back to kowtow to Jiang Hongfei.

There are too many people kowtow to Jiang Hongfei. If there are so many people, even if Jiang Hongfei pays attention to one thing, he will miss the other.

There was no other way, Jiang Hongfei could only passively endure these kneels.

actually--

Not only the people in Songjiazhuang felt that Jiang Hongfei was too kind to the people in Songjiazhuang, but many minions in Shuibo Liangshan also felt that Jiang Hongfei was too kind to the people in Songjiazhuang.

"The village master is so generous to these villagers!"

"That is, if the debt is forgiven, the fields are divided, and each person is given two stones of grain, I want to become a member of the Song Family Village!"

"This person from Songjiazhuang has received so many benefits without making any contribution. Why?"

"It's just kowtow, and I can do it. If the village master can forgive me my debts, divide my fields, and distribute my grain, I will not only kneel down and kowtow to the village master three times, but I will also give my daughter to the village master, serve tea, water, and warm the bed."

"You, Xiang Laosan, are the father-in-law of the village master. You are so beautiful!"

"I didn't say that I would be the father-in-law of the village master. If my daughter feels comfortable serving the village master, and the village master rewards me with a leader, I will be satisfied."

"Xiang Laosan, you went off topic. You said that the leader of the village is too kind to the people of Songjiazhuang. What are you talking about about your daughter? This kind of spring and autumn dream, after you die, you will have time to do it."

"..."

Zhu Gui happened to hear these minions' discussions.

Zhu Gui reprimanded him unceremoniously on the spot: "The leader of the village is acting in a way that you and others cannot criticize?!"

Zhu Gui has grown up, has a tall appearance, a double-fisted face, and a three-pronged yellow beard. At first glance, he is easy to get along with.

In addition, these minions are Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu, and Ruan Xiaoqi, not Zhu Gui.

Therefore, although Zhu Gui scolded them, the minions were not afraid. On the contrary, they gathered around and said:

"Leader Zhu, we are not criticizing the village leader, we just can't figure out why the village master is so kind to the people of Songjiazhuang. You are so knowledgeable and well-informed. Could you please explain to me?"

Xiang Laosan even shouted loudly: "Even the people in Songjiazhuang didn't let the village owner sleep with their eldest daughter or daughter-in-law. Why did the village owner forgive their debts, allocate fields and grain to them?"

Zhu Gui was really not a stern person. Seeing the jealousy of these minions who preyed on the people in Songjiazhuang, he did not explain clearly, fearing that they would cause trouble, so he said:

"You all are short-sighted. Who is my brother? He is a man of great wisdom. How can it be unreasonable for him to treat the people of Songjiazhuang like this?"

The crowd urged: "Brother Zhu will give some lectures to the rest of us so that we can gain some knowledge."

"The water here is getting deep... Let me ask you, if you get so many benefits, will you still go to the government to report me in Shuibo Liangshan?"

All the minions said one after another:

"We are not stupid, how can we sue the officials? When those corrupt officials come, not only will we give up our fields and grain, but we will also have to repay the debt with interest."

"More than that, the lawsuit will harm the people. But when he comes to the countryside, he first eats all the pigs, sheep, chickens, and geese raised by the good people, and then sends him away with a lot of money."

"Give me a few huge benefits, and we will report on Shuibo Liangshan. How can Shuibo Liangshan tolerate these ungrateful villains like us?"

"..."

After Zhu Gui heard this, he smiled and said: "That's it. The people in Songjiazhuang have received so many benefits from my brother, so they will definitely not report me Shuibo Liangshan. This will buy me Shuibo Liangshan valuable time to develop and grow. For this alone, the debt should be forgiven, and the land and grain should be divided."

Only then did all the minions suddenly realize.

Zhu Gui added:

"Brother's intention is more than that."

"When you come from Jeju Prefecture to Shuibo Liangshan, Songjiazhuang is the place you must pass through. If the people of Songjiazhuang want me to Shuibo Liangshan, if there is any trouble in the government, people from Songjiazhuang will definitely come to Shuibo Liangshan to let me know."

"If you go down the mountain, you can rest assured and rest in Songjiazhuang."

"You made spiritual money in the mountains, have you been saving it and not spending it? How can it be safe to spend it somewhere else? But if you come to Songjiazhuang to spend it, who will catch you?"

"When we engage in this business of killing people and selling goods, we will inevitably lose our virtue. By doing this, my brother is helping us to do good deeds and accumulate virtue, so that we will not go to the eighteen levels of hell after death."

"Also, have you ever thought about it, if my brother is so generous to outsiders, how can he still treat his own family badly?"

This time, all the minions were convinced.

"Be good, if you don't listen to Chief Zhu's explanation, I almost misunderstood the leader of the village."

"The leader of the village is really far-sighted. He did the right thing by canceling debts, dividing fields, and dividing grain."

"You tell me, the leader of the village is both civil and military and knowledgeable, how could he do anything wrong?"

"The village leader does have a method for doing things, but the village master's method doesn't look like the green forest method. It's strange."

"..."

Zhu Gui also felt that Jiang Hongfei's acting style was not like that of Green Forest Road. He couldn't tell what it was like.

To be honest, although Jiang Hongfei had talked a lot with Zhu Gui before, which made Zhu Gui's blood boil, after Zhu Gui calmed down, he would inevitably doubt whether Jiang Hongfei could really do what he said?

Now, after seeing Jiang Hongfei's acting style, Zhu Guicai was convinced that Jiang Hongfei could do what he said.

Moreover, Zhu Gui had a vague feeling that as long as he followed Jiang Hongfei's footsteps, he would not have to worry about doing something big.

"Come on, it doesn't matter what my brother wants to do, it will affect my Zhu Gui's life, just stay with me!"
