Chapter 175 Intercepted



My cousin's husband Zhou Youcai spat on the ground and angrily cursed: "These people are too shameless."

Li Rui followed up by saying, "Yinyin guessed it right. Both ends of the official road were blocked."

"I heard that the families walking in front were extorted for more than twenty taels of silver, and all their belongings were extorted by them. One family couldn't raise the money, so they directly took the family's daughter as collateral to pay off the debt."

"The people behind saw that the situation was not good, and they all ran back."

"If we go there now, the money we have to pay won't be as simple as five cents of silver for the travel and accommodation expenses. It will be two taels of silver per person."

Dark, too dark!

This is the unanimous opinion of everyone.

This group of people have become so evil that it is outrageous.

Su Baozhu thought of what Su Yin had said in Anping County before. She didn't understand it at the time, but now she realized that she was absolutely right.

The Anping County Magistrate is a good man and a good official.

Zhang Bingliang looked back at his family. There were twenty of them, and each of them had to hand over five cents of silver. Regardless of age, each family had to hand over ten taels of silver.

With ten taels of silver, they can buy a lot of food.

Zhang Bingliang felt a pang of pain when he thought about giving it away for nothing.

Looking back now, the money I earned from following Miss Su was really nothing. It was not even enough to exploit the officials in Linzhi County.

"We have horses and livestock, I'm afraid they won't just ask for such a small amount of money." Su Yin said the possibility that they were about to face, and this possibility might be very high.

Seeing that they were still fussing over the five cents head fee, Wan Sanye said, "They don't just want this little money, they want all your money."

Su Yin strongly agreed with this statement.

These people are different from those in Fushun County and Hui'an Prefecture.

In Fushun County, officials and bandits colluded and went directly to the rich, and took advantage of the common people to make money. If they could make money, they would make money, and if they couldn't, they would leave. The main target was still the rich.

The officials in Hui'an Prefecture are also bandits. They dare not take action against you openly, but will take advantage of you secretly.

Of course, if you encounter this situation, as long as you are smart, inconspicuous, and leave early, people will not chase you unless there is enough benefit.

They will only come after you if there is enough benefit, like they do.

Fushun County and Hui'an Prefecture both offer a glimmer of hope for ordinary refugees, but it is different in Linzhi County.

Linzhi County appears friendly and welcoming, with clear prices, but in reality, step by step, without you noticing, it will empty your possessions.

In essence, it is no different from Fushun County and Hui'an Prefecture.

One is doing tricks secretly, the other is doing it openly, and with a hypocritical face, as if we are reasonable, we are not doing it recklessly, everything is based on reasons, and we are not making things difficult for you.

If you refuse to cooperate, we will use official authority to oppress you, force you to bow your head, hand over everything, and take out all your belongings bit by bit.

Speaking of insidious, it is not the ones that use knives and guns that are truly insidious, but the ones that do not shed blood and cut the flesh bit by bit are the most terrifying.

If you are not smart, you will be eaten until only your bones are left, and you still don't think there is anything wrong with the other person.

Only those who have experienced it personally can understand its essence and its viciousness. (Mo Ye has experienced it personally)

"What should I do?"

"Yeah, are we just going to wait obediently for them to exploit us?"

Su Yin looked at the group of unscrupulous yamen runners, turned to the crowd and said, "I'm afraid we can't enter Linzhi County."

"These people are so excessive. They may exploit you again after you go in and when you come out." Su Baozhu said angrily.

You know what, they might actually be able to do such a thing.

"Let's not stay in Linzhi County anymore. We should leave as soon as possible." Su's mother was afraid of Linzhi County. Who knows when they will stab you again.

Everyone agreed that they couldn't stay any longer.

If you stay for one more minute, you will probably lose another layer of skin.

They no longer wanted to think about replenishing supplies. At worst, they could just drink water for the next few days. It was better than being exploited without knowing anything.

Nan Jingzhi was called over.

They also knew about the outrageous actions in Linzhi County.

"Are you planning to leave?" Nan Jingzhi asked.

Su Yin nodded, "What about you?"

Nan Jingzhi thought for a moment and said, "Let's go! You are right. These people are trying every way to exploit us. We are so conspicuous, they will definitely not let us leave so easily."

Who knows, they might even come up with false charges.

Su Yin would never actively harm others, but she would not think too highly of others, especially shameless people.

"How do I leave?"

This is the main problem.

The purpose of asking Nan Jingzhi to come over was to discuss this matter.

They were not willing to pay the money for nothing. Humans were needed, and livestock were also necessary.

Su Yin had some money in her pocket, but that money didn't come from the wind. She worked hard for it. How could she just give it to them for free?

If you don't want to give Lu Su a place to stay, there is only one way, that is...

"Go!" Su Yin said only one word.

Nan Jingzhi raised his eyebrows, "I agree."

Wan Sanye followed up and said, "Only in this way can we minimize the loss and risk."

My cousin's husband Zhou Youcai spoke up, "They are blocking us there too. If you go there now, you have to pay two taels of silver per person, and twenty taels for livestock."

Su Yin gave him a reassuring look, "Cousin-in-law, don't worry."
