Chapter 28 Unite the masses

PreviousBack to directoryNext
"Unite the masses!" Yan Yu opened her mouth. Learning is not in vain. There is something serious in her belly.

"Dad, think about it, in ancient times it was rare for families to be separated. The older generation had the final say. If my uncle is good to them, their family members must be good to us.

There is no one in our family who can work, so we have people from the village to help us, so we can have an easier time on the road.

If any elderly person feels that he is too burdened to leave, then the whole family will probably not be able to leave either. The drought this time is really serious. If we don’t leave..."

Yan Yu now knew that they had to leave before paying the food tax so that they could have more food rations.

If people don't leave, they have to pay taxes. After paying taxes, the drought continues and there is no food or water...

"Then our family bought it ourselves, can't we borrow it from them? That's the money our family used to sell the land!" Yan Laoer said distressedly.

Despite the openness with which he spoke at that time, it was because Lao Yan had spoken, and he, as his younger brother, could not let him off the hook.

Now that we have money, we have to listen to the news and let the people in the village remember our family's good deeds.

Since Lao Yan wanted to take the villagers with him so much, he couldn't help but help him a lot.

But can I not feel uncomfortable? I am still worried about not having enough food and drink.

That money bought food. Doesn’t it taste delicious when eaten?

Yan Yu continued to analyze: "If our livestock is used by the villagers, it is definitely not their own concern. If something happens on the road, if it is not our own, we will run away, but if it belongs to a big guy, then we will run away."

With my parents sitting on it, they will definitely work hard to protect Ichigo."

"Also, our family is the only one with cows in the village. Mr. Cui's family has donkeys. They look too impressive. It would be much better to have two more animals. Dad, don't you think so?"

Yan Laoer thought for a while, it was not good for a village to go on the road with all their legs covered, and only his family rode a bullock cart...

In the words of my daughter, hit the eyes.

"Dad, why don't you say that we can't watch the folks in the village when they are hungry? How can you be so petty again?" Yan Yu teased her father.

"Can it be the same? Your uncle only has the little money from selling the land in his hands, and he uses it for this and that, and there is not much left.

We can't settle down in the north. We have to pay for everything.

Fortunately for him, he just took out the fifteen taels of silver without discussing it with his family.

That's the money from selling the land! Yes, I can't own half of that land! I also have half of the silver. I took twenty taels, and the fifteen taels should be mine, but he didn't even ask me." Yan Laoer said nonsense.

In fact, it is just talking about blind poverty.

Yan Yu had a flash of inspiration.

"Dad! You are so right! When you get home, you can argue with your uncle and maintain your character. You are too reasonable and unlike Yan Laoer."

Yan Laoer:......

Is it okay if I don’t want this ghost character?

"Come on, make a fuss, and listen to what uncle thinks. Then you can pretend to be convinced, so that we don't have to guess around here." Yan Yu continued to encourage.

"Then the profound and heart-warming words I just said were not in vain!" Yan Laoer refused.

"Dad, judging from what I learned from my friends, you can't do it in vain. Every time you make trouble, your uncle will give you money in the end. Alas! My uncle is so nice!"

Yan Laoer definitely refused to admit that he was moved because of the money, "What if your uncle gets angry and divides our family?"

"So Dad, please do it gently and don't use too much force. Just ask for clarification."

Yan Laoer: This is definitely a bad idea.



"Brother, why don't you discuss such a big matter at home with me?" Yan Laoer asked in a low voice.

"Are you talking about selling land to pay off debts or buying livestock for the village elders?"

Yan Laoer lowered his head and said bravely: "The money from selling the land is half of mine, so why should I buy livestock for the village elder? We don't even have enough to eat ourselves..."

Yan Huaiwen was silent for a long time.

"That's not what you said in the wheat field."

"Isn't that to give you face in front of outsiders, big brother? You have already said what you said, and I can't hold you back. Of course, I have to make them remember our kindness! Such old money..."

Yan Huaiwen's mood was a little complicated.

It turns out that his incompetent younger brother still knows how to protect his elder brother outside!

It's just that the horizons are a little too small.

Always looking at this little thing in my house.

He forgot to discuss it with his second brother, not because he meant it, but because he was used to making decisions on his own.

God bless him but he would have forgotten about it.

"That's right, although the ten acres of land are in my brother's name, you and I have not separated. The money from the sale of the land should be half of it for you and me," Yan Huaiwen said.

When Yan Laoer heard this, he became anxious!

"Brother, I..."

Yan Huaiwen interrupted him and continued: "I didn't discuss it with you because I didn't think well. I won't do it again in the future."

Yan Laoer listened blankly as Lao Yan told him that our family was small and it would be safer to travel with friends and neighbors, which was similar to what her daughter analyzed.

There are also things they never thought of.

"Our village is not family, but it is better than family. In the eyes of outsiders, we are not to be bullied.

This time we are escaping from famine, we will go first, and all the way to the north, the victims will follow the crowd. When we go to Guanzhou, some people may follow us all the way to Guanzhou. We respect the elderly and the virtuous, and love the children. They will see it in their eyes and be more careful.

Be more polite.

When we arrive in Guanzhou, the scattered population will be allocated to various villages. If we have a large number of people and are willing to reclaim wasteland, we should be allocated a place to settle down.

Our village is full of honest people, there are no petty thieves or people with evil intentions, which is very rare. You and I are not very close brothers. Thanks to the help of our neighbors, if I go out for my brother in the future, I can feel at ease letting you live in the countryside."

Yan Yu squatted at the door.

I deeply feel that my uncle has long-term thoughts.

Learned again.

In the end, the uncle actually gave me some money, haha!

I wonder if he is used to it. Whenever his younger brother makes a fuss, he will use money to appease him.

However, Yan Yu was still dissatisfied with her father's performance.

The character design is not outstanding enough, and the overall performance is just a coward.



"Dad, you didn't perform well, you didn't have enough momentum!" Yan Yu said.

"Don't I feel guilty? I just paid off my gambling debt within two days."

"Dad, are you afraid that your uncle will separate our family?"

Yan Laoer said nothing.

The more we spend time together, the less we want to break up. The three of them don't understand anything, and they don't even know if they are being deceived.

Besides, Lao Yan is really nice.

"Uncle can't do it, haven't you noticed? Uncle forgives you! From now on, as long as we follow the rules and don't do anything inappropriate, uncle will not assign us.

When my uncle becomes a big official in the future, we will become official relatives. We can make a little money by borrowing money and become a rich man. Oh my, it’s wonderful to think about it!"

"Your uncle really gave me money! Tell me, how much money did Yan Laoer lose? It's really nothing!"

"Dad, use it to buy eggs, one can be exchanged for two."

"No, eggs are easy to spoil. It's better to buy grain. Buy all grain."
