Fengyang County has now become a pot of porridge. Such a big mess has been left to her, the county Lord without real power. This led to her County house to be emptied, and there was not much wood left except those bricks and tiles.
Heisan recognized the old man at a glance, gathered around Tian Yuqiao and whispered, "county Lord, we know him. His name is Lai scar. He was a famous horse gang leader in the southwest and northwest. Now he hasn't seen him for only half a year. How can he become a yamen servant?"
Tian Yuqiao's eyes shrunk and didn't show a strange reaction.
"How many other yamen servants are left here?" Tian Yuqiao asked with a smile.
The Lai scar didn't seem to know Heisan, so he still kept a smiling face and said, "most of the other brothers have broken up. Now there are only more than 20 people left. Of course, these also include those prison guards. They can't make up 30."
Tian Yuqiao nodded and then said, "let them all come here and help the county Lord repair here."
When she finished, she led people into the county master's house. Looking at the ruins, Tian Yuqiao's heart was sinking.
I didn't expect that the fief given to her by the emperor was so messy. She didn't believe that the old guy didn't know. Did she come to rectify the atmosphere on purpose, or did she want to kill her family?
Her teeth itched with anger, but it was hard to show it.
Wang took Lan'er in his arms and walked all the way, staring at his feet all the way. I'm afraid I'll trip over a stone, and I'm more worried that a mouse will step on his feet.
The barren grass is one meter high. If there is any danger hidden in it, we don't know.
Gold, Caicai and Honghong had already gone in to clean them up while Tian Yuqiao was talking to Lai scar. All the rats in the yard became red lunches.
After making sure there was no ambush inside, Tian Yuqiao dared to let Wang in.
The homestead here is very large, full of ten mu of land. Although more than half of the courtyard wall inside has long collapsed, it can be seen from the ruins that the county house must have been very imposing before.
After Lai scar followed him in and walked around, he asked with a smile, "county Lord, it's not impossible to ask your brothers to help. It's just that you haven't got the salary of the imperial court for a long time. I don't know whether the county Lord will make up for your brothers' monthly salary for this period of time?"
Liangzi and Heisan stepped forward and stood in front of Tian Yuqiao.
"Presumptuous, the county Lord has no obligation to pay you salaries. This should be the business of the county magistrate." Liangzi roared.
"Don't be angry, sir. Now the brothers don't have enough to eat. How can you help the county leader? I'm sorry my subordinates can't do anything. The villain will leave first."
With that, Lai scar turned and left without giving Tian Yuqiao any face.
"Wait a minute, uncle Lai scar, right? Go and ask everyone to come here. Here, the county leader will pay everyone first. Oh, I don't have anything else. I have plenty of silver. To tell you the truth, my position as county leader was bought in the hands of the emperor with silver."
Wang didn't know why Tian Yuqiao said that. Even Liangzi was stunned. How can this silly girl forget the truth that money is not revealed?
When Tian Yuqiao said he had plenty of money, he saw that Lai scar's yellow eyes suddenly burst out two pure lights. Although fleeting, he was caught by Tian Yuqiao.
"Yes, I'm going to call them here and listen to the orders of the county Lord."
Lai scar finally gave Tian Yuqiao a gift, and then ran out like an enclave to call people.
After seeing people running out, Wang asked angrily, "Joel, what are you doing? They are not kind when they make it clear. How can you tell them that our family has money?"
Heisan smiled and said, "madam, the county Lord must mean that we want to give those guys ~" he said, and made a neck wiping action with his hand on his neck, which scared Wang to take a breath.
"Hehe, you can teach me. Hei san'er, if you don't have too many lives in your hands, I want you to be in charge." Tian Yuqiao said with a smile.
Heisan squeezed out a bitter smile, and then he took his group of people and ambushed around here.
Xiaoyu found a few stones from the decent house and took a cotton cushion from the carriage, which made Wang and Tian Yuqiao sit down.
Liangzi has also made the bodyguards ready. Xiaobai, Dahui and Erhui hide behind a collapsed low wall and can come out at any time.
Besides, Lai scar, who ran away excitedly, went to a blacksmith's shop not long after he went out.
"Old three, old six, quickly take your brothers to the ruins of the county Lord's house. There is a new County Lord. The girl film is a rich master."
"Oh, I didn't expect the fat sheep to come so soon. How many brothers should I take this time?" a middle-aged man came out. He was polishing a machete in his hand and hanging a sheepskin apron on his body.
"I've been inquired about for a long time. The county leader is really rich and has opened several profitable businesses in the imperial city. Remember to keep alive this time, and then blackmail her to give us all her possessions." Lai scar said with a ferocious smile.
Then the three old three sent the guys in the shop to contact other bandits.
"How many people did they come this time?" asked old six.
Lai scar broke his fingers and said after thinking for a while, "I can't count, but it seems that there must be more people than us."
"Isn't that nonsense?"
"The line is about as long as a big willow from this end to that side. You can estimate it yourself."
After looking at the distance, the sixth man smiled and said, "according to what you say, there are at most about 100 people, and we have nearly 200 people. Let them all go out this time, we must catch the county leader alive."
Tian Yuqiao's side, before he came here, most of the guards had been hidden in the dark and became dark guards. Heisan's men originally wore the clothes of civilians in the West. Naturally, Lai scar was not included.
When Lai scar came in with more than 20 big men dressed as captains, he saw the immortal county leader, who was eating melon seeds and teasing the child in the arms of a woman nearby. He didn't know that the disaster was coming.
This gives those bandits more confidence. They think they are sure to make a fortune this time.
