Ancient Drought: The Official Sacrificed Beauties, I Took Them All In

Jiang Tian transmigrated to the Great Xia Dynasty and was immediately met with a drought that had lasted for many years. The county magistrate, in order to pray for rain from the Dragon King, prepa...

Chapter 14 Why do you get to live in a nice courtyard while my master has to live in a dilapidated thatched house?

Jiang Tian shook his head.

He still prefers women like Li Xueer and Li Feier, who are tall, fair-skinned, and beautiful like Xi Shi.

Old Zhou's daughter is as tall as an iron tower.

Jiang Tian had absolutely no interest in him.

Old Zhou's daughter swayed over, sticking her little finger out and digging into her nostrils as she walked.

Soon, a long, yellow snotty string was pulled out of Old Zhou's daughter's nostril from her little finger.

When Jiang Tian saw it, he almost threw up the mutton soup he had drunk the night before.

To his surprise, Old Zhou's daughter put her little finger in her mouth and gently sucked on it.

Ugh... Jiang Tian gagged.

Old Zhou, however, was quite pleased with himself: "Xiao Tian, ​​look how thrifty my daughter is! She doesn't even throw away her snot."

Jiang Tian covered his mouth and quickly waved his hands. If this continued, he wouldn't be able to eat anymore.

Old Zhou saw Jiang Tianyou shaking his head and waving his hands, and thought he had asked for too much rice.

"Or you could give me 95 jin of millet."

"If all else fails, 90 jin will do."

“Jiang Tian, ​​you don’t know. A few days ago, no one agreed to give me 90 jin of millet, so I didn’t agree to my daughter’s marriage.”

"80 jin of millet, that's the lowest I can go." Old Man Zhou held up his thumb and forefinger to make an eight-shaped gesture. "If it goes any lower, I'll suffer a huge loss."

Jiang Tian shook his head again.

Old Zhou stomped his foot and said, "How about 60 jin of millet? If you agree, you can take my daughter home. Just give me 60 jin of millet."

Jiang Tian cleared his throat: "Fellow villagers, elders, aunts, and sisters-in-law, the village chief has plenty of grain, why don't you ask them for some?"

“The village chief’s family has grain, but we can’t ask him for it. Besides, if we borrow one jin of grain from him, we’ll have to pay him back ten jin a year later.”

"The village chief's grain is so good, would you like some?"

"This village chief is usually fierce and menacing. He never gives us a friendly look. We can't get anything from him, let alone food."

"Going to the village chief's house to ask for food is a sure way to get yourself killed."

Wow.

Jiang Tian cursed inwardly.

They dared not ask the village chief for grain.

Yet they dared to come to my house to ask for food.

It seems these villagers are bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong.

"If anyone wants to eat grain, go to the village chief's house to get it." Jiang Tian pointed in the direction of the village chief's house. "I don't have any extra grain in this famine year."

Jiang Tian made it clear to everyone that he didn't want any of the girls he had brought.

What are these things?

They were all dry and ugly, like withered old men.

The crowd pleaded desperately.

Jiang Tian snorted inwardly; he wasn't doing charity work.

These people can have food, but they must treat him with utmost respect.

I wonder where Dian Wei has gone.

He was still counting on Dian Wei to guard his home and property in this chaotic world.

As a result, I didn't see Dian Wei early in the morning.

…………

The village chief's house.

Dian Wei dismounted.

He kicked the village chief's gate so hard it shattered.

Dian Wei was stunned for a moment when he saw the shattered door. He scratched his head and said, "How could this door be so flimsy? What a pity."

Hearing the loud commotion at the door, the village chief quickly led Chang Kong and a dozen thugs out.

"Who dares to come here and cause trouble?"

Dian Wei swung his twin halberds: "Who owns this courtyard?"

The village chief, his dozen or so thugs, and more than 100 farmhands had never seen anyone as big and burly as Dian Wei.

Among his dozen or so thugs, Wang Dazhuang was the most burly and strong.

However, Wang Dazhuang, who came from a bandit background, was like a docile little lamb in front of Dian Wei.

"Hero, what brings you here?" The village chief immediately cowered upon seeing Dian Wei.

Dian Wei pointed his twin halberds at the village chief: "I'm asking who owns this house. You old dog, why are you spouting so much nonsense? Believe me or not, I'll chop you in half with these twin halberds."

The village chief was so frightened that he stumbled backward and fell to the ground with a thud.

“Hero, I am the owner of this courtyard. May I ask what I can do for you?”

When the village chief said this, he was trembling like a leaf.

Dian Wei strode forward, grabbed the village chief by the collar, and lifted him into the air as if he were a chick.

“We’re all from the same village, so why do you live in a grand mansion while my master can only live in a thatched hut?”

"I've taken a liking to this yard of yours. Get out of here right now! I'm bringing my master to move in today."

The village chief was completely dumbfounded upon hearing this.

This is outright robbery.

This village chief is no good person.

This guy has connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds.

When has he ever encountered something like this before?

“My good sir, this is my house, not some nameless place.”

Before the village chief could finish speaking, Dian Wei threw him to the ground.

With a snap.

The village chief fainted immediately.

The village chief had more than a dozen bones broken by Dian Wei.

"What I, Dian Wei, set my sights on is mine. If you keep arguing with me, I'll chop you all to pieces."

Gao Changcheng was seriously injured last night and was unconscious when the farmhands dragged him home.

As soon as this guy woke up, he saw Dian Wei swaggering around in his yard.

"If anyone's not happy, bring it on. My twin halberds have been itching for a fight for a long time." Dian Wei looked at them impatiently.

In his eyes, the dozen or so thugs were just little Karami.

Gao Changcheng sat up, pushed open the window, and roared at the thugs and farmhands in the yard: "What are you bastards doing?"

We give you food, we give you drink, and we give you women to play with.

We don't raise useless people.

"Get this dark-faced man out of here!"

"Yes..." The dozen or so thugs roared upon hearing this, and they all drew the knives hanging from their waists.

The more than 100 farmhands also took carrying poles or wood-chopping knives.

“Black-faced man, I advise you to get lost, otherwise…” Before one of the thugs could finish speaking, Dian Wei thrust his double halberds forward.

With a soft thud, the double halberds pierced directly into the thug's chest.

With a slight exertion, Dian Wei swiftly separated the double halberds, tearing the thug's body in two.

Before the two middle-aged men next to him could react, Dian Wei swung his double halberds toward their heads.

Each of the two halberds had half of a henchman's body stuck in it.

The two henchmen on the left and right sides did not expect Dian Wei to be so strong and so fast.

Before they could even retreat, Dian Wei swung his double halberds.

The severed halves of the halberds slammed directly into their heads.

Click, click.

Two sounds of bones breaking rang out.

The two thugs' brains splattered from the impact, and their bodies flew backward for more than ten meters before crashing heavily against the wall.
