Chapter 348

In fact, how much Li forgets to worry about spending has nothing to do with the people. But in the eyes of these illiterate people in the Tang Dynasty, wealth itself is an original sin.

As the saying goes, "I'm poor, I'm reasonable, you're rich, you're unkind". Most people have this idea about the rich merchants and aristocratic families.

This is also one of the reasons why the rebels of all dynasties can always attract enough responders as long as they shout the slogan of "equal wealth and equal wealth".

Of course, this is not to blame the people.

Even in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, under the system of this feudal dynasty, all kinds of injustice abound, and it is quite normal for the people to hate the powerful.

However, Li forgot to worry about it. After being spread a wave of rumors by the aristocratic family, coupled with the people's natural hatred of power and wealth, Li forgot to worry about it.

Now in Chang'an City, it is either to discuss how much money the huxianzi has, or to spend 20000 taels of gold to build a horse stadium; Or curse such rich and unkind dignitaries.

Therefore, Li forgot to worry about sneezing at home these days and thought he had a cold.

This day, Li forgot to worry about Li Ru's troubles in the house, so he saw that the old housekeeper Li Heng hurriedly led the old village Zheng in.

"Old village, what's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?" Li forgot to worry. Seeing that the old man looked nervous, he couldn't help asking curiously.

"Li Xiaolang, there are a lot of beggars and a large group of Hula in the village today. The old man has asked the young people in the village to stop them at the entrance of the village. Do you want to drive them away?"

A beggar is a beggar.

Li Qieyou was stunned when he heard the speech: "but where has been hit recently?"

Since the government ordered the eradication of locusts, the great locust disaster in Zhenguan in the past two years has now been almost extinguished. Although the grain production reduction this year is certain, there should not be refugees and beggars?

And even if you want to escape, shouldn't it be July and August, when you are out of time? Now it's only the end of April and the beginning of May. How come there are groups of beggars?

The old village is shaking his head: "it doesn't look like refugees. It looks like those beggars in Chang'an city. They all speak with Chang'an accent."

Li forgets his worries and wonders, "beggars in Chang'an City? Why do these people come to my Dingzhou village to beg for food?"

Dingzhou village is a couple living in Chang'an, a hundred miles away from Chang'an city. Although riding a horse for more than half an hour, it is obvious that these beggars can't come here on horseback.

It's 50 kilometers. It takes a day to walk on foot. What attracted these beggars from Chang'an city to Dingzhou village?

In this regard, even the old village is confused. He has lived all his life and encountered such a thing for the first time.

"Let's go to the village head and see what's going on." Li forgets worry. He simply gets up and greets the old village to go out of the village.

When several people walked to the entrance of the village, they saw that it was full of people.

Sure enough, there was a group of beggars in rags outside the village. They were clamoring to enter the village. There were no fewer than 100 people.

At the entrance of the village, a group of old soldiers led the young and strong in the village, holding weapons and sticks, looked at the beggars and forbid them to move forward.

Now, although the houses in Dingzhou village are still dilapidated, there are many copper coins hidden in every family. Naturally, the old village refuses to let so many beggars into the village for fear of causing any trouble.

The village households also ran to see the excitement. The mother-in-law, aunt and children pointed at the beggars outside the village and laughed from time to time.

Seeing that there were so many beggars, Niu Yong and Niu Wu were afraid of an accident, so they stopped Li forgetful from coming forward. They crowded into the young front of the village with weapons.

"Who are you? Why did you come to our Dingzhou village?" Niu Yong asked loudly.

"Gentlemen, we have no basis in life. We are very poor. We have come to the founding son of Huxian County for help. Please look at us and help us."

"I want to see huxianzi and ask for your help."

"Please be gracious and look at me. I'm poor and help people."

A crowd of beggars shouted loudly, shouting everything, and even someone sang a beggar song: "there are only twelve o'clock a day, only two or three rooms at a time, and one room only asks for a penny. The sky is really poor."

The beggars were so noisy that they wanted to give them some clothes, food and send them away.

"Can my Lang Jun be seen by beggars? I'll ask someone to prepare some clothes and food for you, and then leave quickly. Each one has hands and feet. What's wrong? He has to beg!"

"Sir, we don't want clothes and food. We also ask huxianzi to give us some gold. We will leave immediately and never entangle."

"What?" the beggar's words stunned Niu Yong, Niu Wu and the young people in Dingzhou village. No clothes, no food, no gold? Where are these crazy people from?

"Yes, that's right. There's so much gold in huxianzi that there's no place to spend. It's spread all over Chang'an city. All the gold in huxianzi is discarded, such as my shoes. In that case, it's better to throw it to me!"

"Yes, everyone in Chang'an City says so. In huxianzi's home, there is too much gold to fit. If there are Jinshan and Yinshan, please pity me. If you leak a little from your fingers, saving me is equal to water and fire."

"Slaves are not greedy. Just give them a golden leaf."

The beggars' words almost made the village farmers laugh. Even Li Qieyou behind the crowd smiled bitterly and shook his head.

This is a rumor spread by some bastard. I don't know what it means to have a golden mountain and a silver mountain at home.

Where did he know that the so-called rumor is stronger than the tiger.

Li forgot to worry about the twenty thousand taels of gold. After the mouth of countless people in Chang'an City and the help of people with intentions, it has long been exaggerated beyond listening.

Today, Li forget worry seems to have become the richest man in the Tang Dynasty. It is said that the utensils in huxianzi's home are made of gold. Even the trees planted in his yard are made of gold from the trunk to the leaves.

More people are sure. As they saw with their own eyes, the huxianzi, even the stones in his house, are gold. He just threw them on the ground at will and didn't bother to take a look.

And so on. The people of the Tang Dynasty have worked hard to open their brains and use their imagination to conceive how rich Li forget worry is.

For this rumor, people with a little brain naturally laugh off it and won't take it seriously, but the beggars in Chang'an City believe it.

Attracted by the endless gold of the Li family, this group of beggars came to Dingzhou village after walking in groups for a whole day, just to ask Li to forget his worries and give them some gold.

The beggars' words naturally made the farmers in Dingzhou village laugh. The look in the eyes of beggars has changed from a little sympathy to a madman.

It's the first time I've heard that he asked for gold instead of clothes and food.

You are going to heaven! Why not just go to Taiji palace and ask the sage to give up his throne to you?

Li forget worry is also speechless. He is too lazy to pay attention to these madmen, so he wants Niu Yong and Niu Wu to drive them away. When it was noisy, I saw more than a dozen horses galloping on the road outside the village
