Chapter 29 Dungeon Chapter 1)
Under the firelight, the expression on Li Jinli's face was extremely complicated, including joy, surprise, bewilderment, and disbelief.
Do I, Li Jinli, ever wear satin clothes one day?
The old man stretched out his hand and touched the silk fabric of his clothes tremblingly, with a happy smile on his face: "It's so slippery."
With a smile on his face, Li Jinli looked at Li Chaosheng and said, "These clothes are quite expensive, aren't they?"
"It's okay, one tael of silver."
"How many, how many?!"
Li Jinli's eyes widened when he heard this number. One tael of silver would be enough to feed his family for half a year. Now let's buy some clothes.
The other clan elders behind him also widened their eyes. My dear, so much money? Could this clothes be sewn with gold thread?
Li Jinli waited for a long time and then blamed him: "You kid, why are you spending money so lavishly? We old guys can't wear anything. These clothes are too expensive. Let's send them back tomorrow for a refund."
Li Jinli touched his clothes and said with reluctance. After hearing this, Li Chaosheng smiled and said: "Uncle, where did you say this? My nephew respects you as an elder. Why do you care about the money? Just wear it in a down-to-earth manner."
, this little money is nothing to my nephew, your good days are still to come when you grow old."
As he spoke, Li Chaosheng waved his hand and said to Mengzi: "Mengzi, what are you doing so foolishly? Hurry up and give your clothes to your uncles. I still have business to discuss with you."
After hearing this, Mengzi immediately handed the clothes to several clan elders. Their faces were flushed at this time, and they were indescribably excited and happy. The clothes in their hands felt more comfortable than their own mothers. Seeing Li Chaosheng's
He is almost closer than his own son.
At this time, Li Chaosheng said to Li Jinli: "Uncle, I have two things to ask you and some elders of the clan."
"The first thing is where to unload these things. I'm afraid my house can't fit them."
After hearing this, Li Jinli looked at several clan elders and said, "Why don't we leave the ancestral hall? We'll send people to guard it at night and we won't lose it."
After hearing this, several clan elders nodded in unison: "Well, it's the most secure place to put it."
"Yes, it's also convenient for entertaining the clan members."
"Okay, then I'll listen to my uncles and open the ancestral hall. Another question, I brought back thirty-seven bandits this time. I'm thinking that I might have to build a new house in a few days, so I can let them work as coolies for me.
But there is no place to hold them now."
"Ah, it's easy. Just go to the dungeon. It's a big place and easy to guard."
At this time, a clan elder said. After hearing this, Li Jinli nodded and said, "Well, let's put it in the dungeon."
"Dungeon."
Li Chaosheng was stunned after hearing this. Is there such a treasured land in the clan?
Li Jinli said: "In a moment, let Dalong take you there."
"yes."
…
Li Chaosheng chatted with several clan elders for a while, and they were all smiles. The more they looked at Li Chaosheng, the more friendly they became. At this time, his own son probably did not have as high a status in their hearts as Li Chaosheng.
After chatting with the elders for a while, Li Chaolong came over and led Li Chaosheng to the dungeon.
The dungeon is the place where people are imprisoned in the clan. As mentioned in the previous article in this era, the clan elders manage the villages and towns, and they have the power to enforce the law. Usually some matters are decided within the clan, and there is no trouble in the county, so the clan built the dungeon by itself.
.
For example, any girl who doesn't follow the rules of women, needs to be soaked in a pig cage, or breaks other clan rules will be imprisoned in this place first.
To put it simply, this dungeon is a cellar. It is underground in a house. There is an iron cover on top. There is a space as big as a house below. It can easily hold dozens of people.
The cellar is very deep, about three meters deep. If you want to go down, you need to place a ladder. After you put the person down, the ladder is pulled up. At this time, it is covered with an iron lid and locked, so even the gods cannot get up.
All the bandits rushed to the cellar, including Shi Dalei and Shi Xiaolei. Although Shi Dalei said that he would sell his life to Li Chaosheng, and Li Chaosheng believed that he was not lying to him, as a prisoner, he should be treated like a prisoner and atone for his sins first before talking about anything else, otherwise he would be in trouble.
It won the hearts of the people.
Li Chaosheng squatted on top of the dungeon and said to the bandits locked inside: "You will be reformed here honestly, and you will work well if you are asked to work. I won't starve you normally, but if you try to play tricks on me,
Don’t blame me if you die.”
After Li Chaosheng finished speaking, he stood up and left with Li Chaolong and the others. In this room, two young tribesmen were arranged to watch. Of course, they would not watch in vain. Each of them was given a pound of white flour.
When they got outside, Mengzi and all the thirty people on this trip were waiting outside. Li Chaosheng looked at the big guy and said: "You're lucky, big guy. Go back and have a good sleep. Come to my place tomorrow to get white noodles. Every day."
A person weighs ten pounds."
"good."
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other happily, and then Li Chaosheng continued: "In addition, these guys are very brave today, and some of them are injured. This injury was suffered for me, Li Chaosheng, and it cannot be in vain.
The old hens I brought back today, one for each person, are my little thoughts."
"Ah, Brother Chaosheng, it's our duty to protect you, how can we still ask for chickens? It's not appropriate."
"That's right, Brother Chaosheng, we can't have this hen."
"Yes, Brother Chaosheng, you still care about our meal of fat noodles at noon today. We can't have any more chicken."
"That's right, you can't have it."
…
"Brothers, brothers, listen to me. You must have this chicken today. We still have a long time to live in the future. If you don't want my chicken, I will be embarrassed to ask you for help in the future. You must accept it."
Li Chaosheng said to everyone. After hearing this, everyone fell silent for a while.
"Brother Chaosheng, you are too polite. We will accept the chicken. If you have anything to do in the future, you can tell us. As long as the brothers can do it, we will help you do it even if we risk our lives."
"Yes, Brother Chaosheng, if anyone dares to speak ill of you or bully you in the future, I will fight them tooth and nail."
"Yes, Brother Chaosheng, we will do whatever you ask us to do from now on!"
"Yep."
Everyone was talking about it, and Li Chaosheng looked at everyone with a smile. Isn't this the effect he wanted? Money scattered and people gathered together, now people's hearts were gathered by him.
Everyone left holding a hen, but there were ten left. Li Chaosheng looked at Li Chaolong and said: "Cousin, let's pick a few to send to the clan elders, and you can take the rest home. Yesterday,
I ate the only egg-laying hen in our family. I heard Mengzi talking to me afterwards, and I always felt bad about it. My aunt was not in good health and she needed to take supplements. There was also Dezong, and the imperial dolphins were all growing.
When eating, nutrition must keep up.”
After hearing this, Li Chaolong did not refuse. After all, in Li Chaosheng's words, he would have to deal with him a lot in the future. It would be enough for him to help him with all his heart. If he was polite to him anymore, he would appear to be a heretic.
