Changsun Hongcong and others picked up the treaty and looked at it, and immediately became furious.
The above content is very simple:
I am:
county.
In other words, once you enter the county town of Huxian, you can't do anything on your own, but if you want to leave, you have to pay 10,000 yuan.
Everyone was furious.
"That's unreasonable!"
"This is simply too much bullying. We came to Huxian County under His Majesty's order to benefit the people. Being able to come here is considered to be a favor to Du He. I didn't expect that Du He would treat us like this. It's really unreasonable!"
"Master Changsun, you are the backbone of everyone. Tell us, what should we do?"
"Go back home, go back to Chang'an, and impeach Du He!"
Everyone said something to me.
At this time, Du He appeared on the tower.
Du He was dressed in rich clothes, holding a big fat and oily chicken leg in his hand. While chewing, he said loudly: "Everyone, it is not easy for you to come all the way. I have prepared a sumptuous meal for you."
, sign the treaty, and then you can go to the city to have a feast. There is fresh mutton, donkey meat, and chicken. If you turn around and leave, how can I finish the meal by myself?"
With that said, Du He buried his head and started chewing the chicken legs.
Changsun Hongcong and the others were so hungry that their eyes were filled with starvation, and now their saliva was drooling all over the floor.
Someone said: "Master Changsun, why don't we go to the city first? As for this treaty, we just need to sign it first. Even if we leave then, Du He may not dare to do anything."
"That makes sense," Changsun Hongcong nodded and took the lead in signing the treaty, "Yes, let's go to the city first. Now, two of us have fainted. If we rush back to Chang'an, we may be in trouble!"
With him taking the lead, others no longer hesitate.
In a short time, everyone signed the contract.
Du He threw the clean chicken bones in his hand and said, "Open the door!"
Rumble.
The dilapidated city gate opens.
Changsun Hongcong and others rushed in impatiently.
As soon as they saw Du He, everyone drooled and asked questions one after another.
"Du He, where is the dinner?"
"I want to eat donkey meat!"
"Quick, I'm hungry..."
Du He and Ma Zhou led the way and soon brought everyone to an open space near the county government office.
I saw a huge pile of firewood burning in the open space, and the firewood was burning loudly. There were a few broken tables around it, and there was nothing else.
Changsun Hongcong and others looked confused.
Where's the promised dinner?
What about chicken and mutton?
Duhe is a liar.
"Du He, where is the delicious food?" someone asked with a cry.
Du He clapped his hands.
Immediately, I saw a group of people walking out of the alley, some were leading sheep, some were leading donkeys, some were holding chickens, some were holding iron pots, some were holding kitchen knives...
Du He said with a smile: "Everyone, since you have arrived in Hu County, you must follow the local customs. Now, I am the magistrate of Hu County. I am going to make a three-part agreement with the people of Hu County. The first one is not to raise idlers. As the saying goes,
He said, what goes up and what goes up follows what follows. Since you are all from the county government, you should abide by it. Today, of course, there are delicacies, but you need to do it yourself... Come on, let me see if you have the talent to be a chef."
To put it simply, the ingredients are all prepared and you can do it yourself.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
But they saw Du He's men throwing the live chickens and sheep on the ground, stuffing the kitchen knives into the hands of Chang Sun Hongcong and others, then turned around and left.
Someone shouted angrily: "Du He, you are going too far. Is it okay if I don't eat? I want to go to a restaurant to eat. I have money. I won't bear this anger."
A young man slammed the tool in his hand on the ground, turned around and left.
Du He smiled and said: "It's too late. When you signed the treaty, I had people take away all your carriages, horses and luggage and keep them for safekeeping. Now you are penniless and your servants have been sent back.
Now, you have to rely on your own hands to eat, otherwise, you will starve to death in Huxian County..."
"ah……"
Everyone looked around and found that all the servants they had brought were missing.
As for the luggage, it was all on the carriage.
It’s over!
This is a sheep entering a tiger's mouth!
Du He looked at everyone and then said: "I have already said hello to you. All the restaurants and inns in Hu County will not take you in. The city gates are closed. If you want to eat, you have to do it yourself. Otherwise,
Just wait to starve to death. Lao Ma, let’s go.”
With that said, Du He called Ma Zhou and left.
The two walked forward, and Ma Zhou couldn't help but ask: "Wouldn't this be a bit harsh? These people are all indifferent, and their backgrounds are not simple. If we get them out of
At any rate, it’s hard to explain to the DPRK and China when the time comes!”
Du He waved his hands indifferently: "Anyway, it was Gao Shilian who asked them to come. If something goes wrong, the officials will take care of it. What are we afraid of? Humph, these second-generation ancestors want to come to Hu County to eat and drink for free. This is a daydream, Hu.
The county does not raise idle people, and this will never change! Come on, old horse, come fishing with me!"
Ma Zhou rolled his eyes.
At this time, Du He still has time to go fishing?
There are still more than 30,000 people in Hu County who are homeless and can't even eat. Isn't he worried at all?
…
Near the county government office.
Changsun Hongcong and the others looked at each other with big eyes. You looked at me, I looked at you, but no one moved.
Gu Gu Gu Gu.
Everyone's stomachs were in tacit agreement and started to growl in unison.
Chang Sun Hongcong licked her chapped lips and asked, "Who knows how to kill a chicken?"
No one spoke.
"Who knows how to kill a sheep?"
Still no one spoke.
These guys have grown up with fine clothes and fine food, and they have nothing but food and clothing. Some of them are not even able to wear clothes. They are forced to kill chickens and sheep, and it is difficult for them to reach the sky.
Not to mention killing the donkey.
Changsun Hong raised his head to the sky and screamed: "Are we really going to starve to death in Huxian County?"
At this time, a fair-looking young man stood up and said, "Master Changsun, Du He has given us rice."
"What?"
Everyone was stunned.
This young man's name is Hou Yi, whose courtesy name is Yuanfu. He is the son of Hou Junji, Minister of War.
Hou Yi explained: "I...I don't know how to kill chickens, but I can cook porridge. Why don't we eat some porridge first, otherwise we might starve to death."
"That's all we have to do!"
"What Brother Hou said is absolutely true!"
“It’s good to have porridge!”
Everyone agreed.
Everything will be fine if you don't starve to death now.
Hou Yi just did it, took the big iron pot and put it on the stand, fetched a bucket of water, and prepared the rice.
However, he stopped, turned around, and asked: "When cooking porridge, should you put the rice first or the water first?"
