Chapter 266 Protection Fee
"Sir, what should we do with Wan Dahe and the other four?"
Yan Shilei pointed at Wan Dahe, who was lying on the ground with a gloomy look on his face, and the other three people who were filled with regret and said to Zhou Yunshu.
"Don't we need to open up a new piece of land and dig a ditch?" Zhou Yunshu looked at Wan Dahe who was kneeling on the ground and said, "They are perfect for this."
"Master, I want to show you the way."
One of them said to Zhou Yunshu boldly.
Zhou Yunshu looked at him and said, "Okay, you."
After Zhou Yunshu finished speaking, the man still looked at her expectantly, hoping to hear from her that he didn't have to dig ditches or open up the land, but Zhou Yunshu said nothing.
"Sir, when are we going to collect the protection fee?" Peng Tianhe approached Zhou Yunshu and asked.
He could no longer hold back, as he loved doing this kind of thing of taking advantage of the power of others.
Well, Peng Tianhe didn’t know if he was too confident in Zhou Yunshu. He never considered that Zhou Yunshu might fail.
After all, with masters like Chusan and Chunque around, even dozens of people would not be their match, so it is only natural for them to take down Tongshui Village.
"Now."
If we delay, something unexpected will happen. What if someone is so ignorant as to leak the information?
Everyone had already gathered. Zhou Yunshu had originally planned to leave Chusan at Qishui Manor to serve as a deterrent, but...
"My duty is to protect you."
Zhou Yunshu still couldn't control Chu San at all unless he stayed by her side all the time.
This also made Zhou Yunshu more certain that her grandmother had asked Chusan to keep an eye on her.
But the other cruel fact is that Chu San doesn't want to leave her side, and she really has no way to get rid of him, and she can't break up with Chu San.
Breaking up with Chu San is like breaking up with my grandmother. It is not worth it and not possible now.
So after refusing again on the third day of junior high, she said, "I'm just afraid that this group of people will rebel while I'm away."
Chusan looked at Wan Dahe being dragged away by his family with a blank expression and said, "You should kill him to make an example of him."
"But maybe it hasn't achieved the effect of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys yet. It's first driven these people who don't trust me much to turn against me."
Zhou Yunshu looked at the people of Qishui Village under the banyan tree, who were now looking forward to their future after being released from the clan, and said to Chusan, "You should have noticed that the Wan family has taken over quite a few people in Qishui Village. I just arrived and don't have many people with me, so I don't want to confront them head-on."
"So, let the arrows fly for a while, and let them fall apart from the inside."
Zhou Yunshu pointed at the two brothers Wan Zhong and Wan Yi who were reaching for their weapons and said, "When the Wan family finds a new support, Wan Dahe will become their abandoned child. You can do whatever you want with him then."
Having said that, after Zhou Yunshu has dealt with him once, if Wan Dahai honestly changes his ways, she will not bring up the past again.
But if she still has some ulterior motives, then she will show everyone in front of the people of Qishui Village what will happen if she betrays her again and again.
She wanted to leave a good impression on her people that she kept her promises and would not kill, but she also wanted to sound a warning to them not to betray.
Only by combining kindness and severity can we achieve long-term success.
"It's your decision." Chusan had no objection to Zhou Yunshu's decision.
It was Ji Mingzhu's arrangement that he stayed by Zhou Yunshu's side, and there was only one thing he had to do, which was to protect Zhou Yunshu's life. The rest had nothing to do with him.
Zhou Yunshu thought about not staying on the third day of the junior high school, and decided to keep Yan Shilei, Kang Jingyu, and the young servant with strong martial arts skills beside him to work for her on a voluntary basis.
As for Cen Miaoying and the other three, they also stayed behind, and only Wu Gui, Peng Tianhe and a few others left.
Zhou Yunshu heard from Wan Dajiang, the Wan family member who offered to take them to Tongshui Village, that Tongshui Village had donkey carts and carts, so Zhou Yunshu did not bring anything with her when she left.
Eight horses, and the rest of the people all ran.
Zhou Yunshu originally thought that Tongshui Village would be very far away from Qishui Village, at least dozens of kilometers away, but in fact, it only took them an hour to follow Wan Dajiang to the outside of Tongshui Village.
Tongshui Village is located between a high mountain and a river. At a glance, there are probably dozens of households.
However, such a small village was able to easily connect with Wan Dahe and then together they extorted money from Qishui Village.
When Zhou Yunshu and her group of more than 30 people approached the entrance of Tongshui Village, they immediately attracted the attention of the people on the high platform next to the village gate.
The view in front of the Tongshuizhai gate is unobstructed, so they can immediately detect any movement outside the gate and react as quickly as possible.
But this time, the person standing on the platform had not yet blown the homemade horn, and Zhou Yunshu had already shot the arrow in her bow as soon as she saw him.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Yunshu kicked the horse's belly and rushed into Tongshui Village with the people behind her.
When the young and strong men of Tongshui Village rushed out, Zhou Yunshu's men had already captured the women, children and men of Tongshui Village as hostages.
She looked at the bandits from Tongshui Village who had rushed over, and suddenly understood why Wan Dahai was so determined to cooperate with the people from Tongshui Village to plunder the money from Qishui Village.
There were two strong men in Tongshui Village, who were only slightly taller and stronger than Zhanchuan. They held machetes as thick as men's arms, and looked ferocious and vicious. It was obvious that they were not good people.
"Where did this scoundrel come from? How dare he come to our village to cause trouble? Do you know us..."
Before the man could finish his words, Chunque moved the knife that was against the man's neck in front of him a few inches closer. The man cried out, "Brother-in-law, stop shouting! Help!"
“I…”
"What are you talking about? Save me now, or my sister will not forgive you!"
Zhou Yunshu sat on the horse and looked curiously at the 1.80-meter-tall strong man being scolded by a thin man about 1.7 meters tall and he dared not say a word. It was quite interesting.
"Then do you know why we are here?"
Zhou Yunshu twirled an arrow in her hand and spoke to the tall and strong man with a fierce look on his face.
"What are you doing?" the scolded strong man asked stupidly.
"I heard you were pirates and collected a lot of protection money."
As soon as Zhou Yunshu said this, the two brothers frowned and looked at each other, while the others in the village shouted, "Nonsense, we are all decent villagers!"
"So you mean to confiscate it?"
The burly man looked at Zhou Yunshu and thought he was an official or the owner of a farm. He tried to straighten his neck and said to Zhou Yunshu, "We didn't rob!"
"They gave it to us voluntarily!"
Zhou Yunshu smiled when she heard that, put the arrow in her hand on the bow and drew the string to full length, then pointed at the man who was speaking and said, "Is that so."
"Then please voluntarily pay the protection fee."
