Chapter 193: Speaking Out Against Injustice
Zhao Liya was tactful and immediately stood up and said goodbye to Hu Ling.
Yu Gongcao worked for the county magistrate, so naturally he didn't dare to help them. It was very kind of him to reveal this sentence and confirm Zhao Liya's guess.
Mao Dexing would not be a good person, so Yu Gongcao would naturally worry about his revenge.
Hu Ling was furious: "That bastard surnamed Mao must be waiting for us to beg him, otherwise it would be difficult to get the land deed. But if we go to beg him, he will definitely not agree so easily."
He will definitely take the opportunity to ask for a huge amount of money and make demands.
According to the fragmentary information they had learned about Mao Dexing before, this man was a greedy person who would eat people without leaving any bones, and would never show mercy.
Zhao Liya sneered: "He is quite thoughtful and has taken advantage of everything."
Not only did he want to get huge benefits from them, he also wanted them to come to him and beg him to accept them - how could such a good thing happen?
When he got home and told Zhao Xiang and others about it, everyone was furious.
This Mao Dexing is extremely hateful.
"This kind of person can't be given any benefits at all!"
"That's right, it's worse than feeding it to the dogs!"
"Let's think of a way to do it."
"What are you afraid of? We still have General Zhong. If there is really no other way, we can only ask General Zhong for help."
Having Zhong Jing backing everyone up really puts everyone at ease.
But Zhong Jing was a garrison soldier, belonging to a different system from the local officials. Moreover, their relationship had never been particularly close, simply keeping their distance. After all, to maintain his troops, Zhong Jing would have to be a pesky idiot constantly asking the locals for money and food. It would be strange for the locals to like him.
Therefore, Zhao Liya didn't want to cause trouble for Zhong Jing unless it was absolutely necessary.
"Since Mao Dexing is hiding behind the scenes, let's just pretend we don't know about this. Let Baijiacun handle this matter."
Everyone in Baijia Village was so excited, but then they were poured a bucket of cold water and became very angry.
As soon as Zhao Liya asked them to come forward, Bai Lizheng patted his chest and agreed without saying a word.
So the next day, Bai Lizheng, along with two clan leaders and seven or eight powerful villagers, rushed to the county government office in a threatening manner.
This time, they are not here to reason, but to cause trouble.
The master was unable to withstand any attack and was caught by them. They kept talking and accusing him aggressively, which frightened him so much that he thought he was going to be beaten.
"You are such a wicked old man! You must be the one behind all this, not allowing us to see the grandfather! Believe it or not, I will beat you up!"
"How have we in Baijia Village offended you? Why can't we in Baijia Village do what Zaihu Village and Bajiao Village can do? Did they give you benefits, and you want to take benefits from us? Hmm?"
"Humph! If you talk nicely, even if I give you a little benefit, it's nothing! But you're playing dirty, so I won't give it to you! You can forget about even a penny or a chicken!"
"Stop trying to fool us with those bullshit words. Just tell us, is Grandpa here? If you dare to lie to us again, I'll whip you!"
"What's the matter? Do you think the people from Baijia Village are easy to bully? Huh?"
"I'm warning you, you have to get this done for me today, right now, right now, or I'll tear your house down! You can try!"
"You're so brave to bring misfortune upon our Baijia Village for no reason!"
“.”
The lawyer had no way to defend himself, and his rebuttal seemed so pale and powerless - after all, he didn't dare to tell the truth at all.
It didn't seem like a rebuttal, but more like an attempt to cover up something, which made the people in Baijia Village so angry that they pushed and rubbed the master so badly that his sleeves were torn.
The lawyer was so frightened that he had to admit his mistake loudly and ran to the back court in a panic to report and ask the master for a decision.
County Magistrate Yin's heart also skipped a beat.
If nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to transfer smoothly and leave this damn place in two years.
It's unfortunate. County magistrates are generally transferred every six years, and in some places even every three years. However, in a remote and poor place like Gaolian County, once you come here, you are basically transferred every nine years.
If I'm unlucky, I'm afraid my life will end here.
Of course, County Magistrate Yin didn't want to die here.
He spent a lot of money to smooth things over, and after two years he was confident he could make a move.
The premise is that everything goes smoothly during the term of office.
The local villages and hamlets stick together, and even the villages are connected to each other. For example, in Baijia Village, things that other villages can do are blocked by them. Once they get angry, God knows what will happen!
These brainless and rough guys all have bad tempers. When they get angry, they will cause bloodshed.
Fortunately, they are usually well-behaved and don't make any noise, so everyone lives in peace.
But they didn't expect that this incident would have such a big impact on them.
There are about ten people coming today. If this matter is not resolved, there will not be more than ten people coming tomorrow.
Magistrate Yin's temples were pounding. "Do it, do it, do it for them immediately! Just accept it, ah!"
The lawyer felt bitter and had to agree with frustration.
The deed was signed on the spot, and the lawyer admitted: Yes, it was his fault. He wanted to benefit, so he deliberately blocked the people of Baijia Village and did not report the matter to the master. Now he knows he was wrong, please spare him.
It’s true!
Everyone in Baijia Village was a little confused, so what was going on?
No matter what happened, since the master admitted it himself, it was his fault!
He is not a good guy!
"How dare you harm the people of our Baijia Village!"
"You are such a disaster!"
"Hit me!"
"Beat him! Teach him a lesson!"
The enraged hunters of Baijia Village beat the master with fists and kicks, and he was beaten so hard that he held his head and screamed in pain, almost dying.
As for the land deed, I naturally got it as well.
Everyone in Baijia Village left.
"If you dare to do bad things next time, I'll smash your head off!"
"Don't think that the people from our Baijia Village are easy to bully, humph!"
It was not until the farce ended that Mao Dexing "accidentally" came to the backyard of the county government office and "accidentally" found out about the incident.
"Brother-in-law, those barbarians are too outrageous, aren't they? You are the father and mother of the government, can't you handle them?"
Most of the money that County Magistrate Yin received from his activities came from his brother-in-law, so he was quite good to him.
Hearing this, he sighed, "You know they're just a bunch of barbarians. Why would you bother with them? These barbarians are unreasonable and stick together. If a fight really breaks out, it will be a big deal."
The people in this place are tough and often get into fights over a disagreement. Once a fight breaks out, there's no guarantee that more people won't be dragged in, and it'll really be a big scene.
