General Qin

Chapter 117: Horizontal Meaning

Standing with the sword horizontally, staring angrily, for a while, everyone outside the door dared not move forward.

The women and children watching from a distance cried out in shock when they saw this scene.

People from Yanzhao drew their swords and fought each other frequently, with three steps of blood spattering.

Although the Qin people were brave on the battlefield, they did not dare to fight lightly in China.

Don't look at them yelling loudly and kicking the door fiercely just now, but when they became aggressive and blocked the door with swords, no one stepped forward.

"Feng, why do you do this? Since you have a way to increase the yield of the fields, why do you hide it and not share it with us. Although you are from Zhao, but now that you have settled down in Chaoyang, you are our neighbor .”

"Neighbors should help each other. You said to yourself, since you settled in Chaoyangli, have we ever bullied you? Who doesn't treat you like a fellow countryman? One hundred acres of land, when I divided the fields, did I ever give you a deduction of one acre for one point!"

Tian Dian opened his mouth, speaking righteously and strictly.

Upon hearing this, the people around all shouted regardless of whether Tian Dian was right or not.

"That's right."

"That's it, since you came to our Chaoyangli, we have never bullied you, and we even helped you introduce mediocre farmers before, but now we hide a good idea and don't want to share it with everyone. Why are you so ruthless?"

He opened his mouth horizontally, but couldn't speak clumsily.

What Tian Dian said is naturally problematic. Heng and Zhao Tuo settled in Chaoyang Lizhong. Although the people in Lizhong did not bully him on the surface, they isolated him. No one paid attention to him on weekdays. Many people spoke ill of him in the background.

Even when Heng was looking for a mediocre farmer, no one helped to introduce him, and finally relied on the power of money. His life here is far from being as harmonious as these people say.

It's just that Heng is not good at words, coupled with the turmoil in front of him, it makes him nervous, and he can't even utter a word of explanation, so he can only hold the sword and confront the Qin people.

Just when the two sides were at war, Li Dian with a gray beard came over, followed by a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.

This girl has a black face and thin face, and her clothes are not very good. Her expression is tense, and she looks timid.

"Go."

Li Dian patted the girl on the shoulder, the girl trembled and walked over.

"horizontal."

Hearing the call, he looked sideways and saw that it was the black and thin girl, so he couldn't help calling: "Jing."

Jing mourned: "You can tell everyone that method. This year, the government has collected a lot of land rent. After paying the rent, everyone will have no food left in the house. They can only live with wild vegetables and bitter leaves."

"I heard from Ah Weng that if the tax is still the same next year, he will drown my younger sister, so that I can lose a share of the tax and give the family more living money."

"You have seen my young sister, I don't want her to die."

When Jing said this, she knelt on the ground in tears.

Looking at this scene in a daze, this girl named Jing is the daughter of a poor farmer in Luzuo, and there are younger brothers and sisters at home, living a very poor life

Except for a little grain brought by the 100 mu of poor land allotted to them, the rest of the time the family can only live by picking wild vegetables and fruits.

Jing met Heng while picking wild vegetables, and they fell in love with each other. She is also the only person in Chaoyang who does not dislike Heng Zhao's identity.

Now seeing the person I love kneeling on the ground crying and begging bitterly, and the words he said were so touching, it made my heart feel like a knife.

When the others saw this scene, they begged one after another. The women and children in the distance also knelt down at the horizontal door under Li Dian's gesture.

"Please, please tell us the method. If we can get more food next year, we can survive."

"Heng-jun, save us."

The pleadings of those women and children made Heng unable to stand still.

Although he is from Zhao, he has a blood feud with the Qin people for generations, but when he really got together and settled down here, he found that these Qin people in Qianshou are no different from Zhao people, especially women and children like Jing. .

Moreover, Heng really knows how much tax the Qin State collects. After destroying several countries in a row, the Qin State’s policy of luring the people since the era of King Zhaoxiang has completely ended, and even the people like them have to pay the corresponding land. The large amount of rent and tax surprised Heng secretly.

Of course, this matter is similar even in Zhao country.

The seven kingdoms of the world are essentially the same.

Tell me a way to increase the output of the farmland in everyone's field and fill more people's stomachs.

Yoko wanted to do that too, but he couldn't.

"My life has been entrusted to the gentleman. This matter was entrusted by the gentleman. I was careless for a moment, and it was already a mistake for others to leak it. How could I tell others about this method without the gentleman's permission. "

"Wow, even if I die, I won't do this!"

Thinking of this, Heng's expression became firm again.

He stared at Jing and the others, and said coldly: "Please go back."

The meaning of refusal is obvious.

Seeing Zhao Ren's recalcitrance, Tian Dian immediately became angry, turned his head and took a look at Li Dian who was not far away, and saw that he was also nodding to him, and suddenly became angry.

"Everyone, this masterful method is enough to increase the yield of our family's farmland by more than one stone per mu. Such a huge amount, I don't know how many lives can be saved. Since he is so cruel that he doesn't want to take our lives, then we don't have to." Let him be merciful, let's go up together, subdue him, and interrogate him!"

Tian Dian took the lead and immediately aroused everyone's response.

Grain is life these days. If one can master that method, a hundred mu of land can produce hundreds of shi of grain a year. Who wouldn't?

Even taking some risks for this is worth it.

Seeing that the Qin people outside the house had already picked up their farm tools, they came over in a dense mass.

Holding the sword in his hand horizontally, his eyes are extremely firm.

In the end, if you can't keep this matter, you will kill yourself with a sword.

"horizontal!"

Amidst Jing's desolate cry, the people of Qin had already approached within a few steps, and blood spattered three steps at any time.

At this critical moment, a cold and quiet scolding sound came from not far away.

"The law says that if someone breaks into a private house without reason and intends to commit a crime, the owner will kill him on the spot, and he is not guilty."

The sound is not loud, but it makes people feel chills in the ears.

The majesty of Qin Law was highlighted at this moment. The Qin people who were holding farm tools and their eyes were fierce, all backed away in fright when they heard this, and looked in the direction of the sound.

It was a young man in brocade clothes, about seven feet three inches, fair-faced, well-proportioned, with piercing eyes, and the most noticeable thing was the double-plated long crown on his head.

"Public ride!"

I don't know who called out, and everyone froze in place and didn't dare to move.

Tian Dian's complexion changed drastically, and he recognized at a glance that the man with the title of public ride was another young man from Zhao who had joined the army.

It's just, isn't he the title of doctor?

Tian Dian was so frightened that he trembled all over. He originally wanted to get the method that Zhao Tuo had mastered in advance before Zhao Tuo came back.

Unexpectedly, the other party came back in such a timely manner, and the most important thing is that the other party's title is three levels higher than the original one.

Public vehicles and doctors are by no means the same.

Zhao Tuo gave Tian Dian a cold look, which made him kneel down on the spot in fright.

He stepped forward, and every time he took a step, all the Qin people in front of him took two steps back, with their heads bowed and sweating, and they dared not speak.

This is the benefit of having Gao Jue in Qin.

Hierarchy is high and low, high and low are orderly.

Those with no rank or those with low rank will be severely punished by the law if they dare to harm those with high rank.

Don't even dare to touch it.

Zhao Tuo walked to the gate among a group of trembling Qin people, and looked at the black and thin man holding a sword inside the broken gate.

Put away the cold expression.

Zhao Tuo said gently, "I'm back."

"Gentleman!"

Kneeling down on the ground, looking at that extraordinarily young cheek, tears streamed down his face.
