Ouyang Che didn't hear what Liu Zhiyuan said clearly, and asked several times. Liu Zhiyuan originally wanted Ouyang Che to find out a few people familiar with the situation in the mountains in the village, but then he thought that ordinary villagers don't know much about martial arts. If he really encounters a bandit, he will just be in vain. He does not want to hurt the lives of innocent people, so he waves his hand and is unwilling to mention the bandits more. Seeing that he doesn't speak, Ouyang Che just said that It's inconvenient to ask again.

The three of them talked at Ouyang Che's house for a while, and Ouyang Che wanted to inform Liu Wuji to bring everyone here to see Liu Zhiyuan. Liu Zhiyuan thought that the yard was very small, and Wuji brought these many people to come and was quite disturbing. I was afraid that it would disturb the villagers, so it would be better to go there by myself. Thinking of this, he called Ouyang Che and said what he was thinking. Chen Bing had no objection, but Ouyang Che was moved. , I admire Liu Zhiyuan even more in my heart.

After saying that, the three of them left the yard together, walked about two incense sticks on the village road, and then arrived at the valley farm in Tiaoxi Village. The valley farm was quite large, and on the south side of the valley farm, the two houses side by side seemed even more out. Conspicuous. Liu Wuji saw his young master from afar, rushed out, bowed to Liu Zhiyuan and Chen Bing, and Liu Zhiyuan waved his hand and asked, "What's wrong with everyone?".c

Liu Wuji stood beside Liu Zhiyuan and said respectfully: "According to the young master's instructions, I went back to Huating. Together with Xinchen, I took over the refugees who broke into Huating and placed these people in an empty house by the Shui River. Among them.”

Ouyang Che felt a stern when he heard this and said to himself, "These people are indeed refugees. How could Guanren Liu recruit refugees? What should I do? How should I tell the villagers?" He thought of these things in his mind. The difficulty was that his face looked a little ugly. However, he stood behind Liu Zhiyuan, so he did not attract attention.

Liu Zhiyuan thoughtfully said, "The empty house by the water? Placed on the water..." Then, he understood and praised, "You have done a good job with Liu Xinchen, and the water is very remote." , quite far from Huating, so he can avoid other people's eyes and ears and ears and ears and ears, and do not attract the attention of magistrate Hong. If things really change, there is no need to harm the county and cause harm to the countryside." He didn't say one thing, then The empty house beside the water was originally used by Liu Zhiyuan's brother Liu Chengyuan to train guards. The servants Liu Xinchen brought that day were all elite guards of the Liu family. Although they were not as skilled as martial arts, only half of them were hungry to deal with these hungry. But life-long refugees are more than enough.

Liu Wuji said humbly: "These are all what Xinchen thought of. I just followed him to prevent incidents." Seeing Liu Zhiyuan nodding, he continued: "There are 97 refugees in total, nine of them." It was a woman, with ten elderly people. Apart from the women and the elderly, there were seventy-eight people left. I didn’t want to be close to these women, so I went there again, six people, and only seventy-two people remained. After observing these days, I removed thirty-two people, and only forty people selected, and they were all under-family people. Now all of these forty people have brought this place.”

Liu Zhiyuan said, "Very good. Go and call out all those people, I have something to say."

After a while, all the forty refugees brought by Liu Wuji went to the valley. Everyone didn't know who Liu Zhiyuan was, but seeing that he was extraordinary, Liu Wuji who brought him here was respectful to him and some had eyesight. Some clues have been seen, but the rest are still gathered together to discuss privately.

Liu Zhiyuan looked at everyone, and waved his hand. Everyone was no longer as they had just arrived. Now they were very sensible and stopped talking. In this regard, Liu Zhiyuan nodded secretly in his heart, very satisfied, and said, "

Do you know why you are taking you here?"

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other and didn't know how to answer.

Liu Zhiyuan continued, "This place is called Tiaoxi Village, facing Taihu Lake in the north and Bian Mountain in the south. It is a place with beautiful mountains and rivers and outstanding people and beautiful places. It has been a land of fish and rice since ancient times."

As soon as Liu Zhiyuan finished speaking, a dark-faced man suddenly said, "Since it is that good place, this official, shouldn't he just let me wait here for fun? Haha, it's a pity, I

All of them are hard-working people, and they don’t have that kind of good life.”

Chen Bing glanced at the man and saw him standing among the crowd, surrounded by some people. He thought that this man should be the leader chosen by these people recently. If he couldn't convince him, then other people

People will not obey Liu Zhiyuan in the future. Thinking of this, I looked at Liu Zhi

I want to see how he will answer.

Liu Zhiyuan rolled his eyes, glanced at the man, and said in a stern manner: "If you think you don't have this life, you can just leave Tiaoxi Village now. Humph, there are not many people here."

The man opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he thought that if he left here, he would be afraid that he would really not be able to survive, so he swallowed the words that had already reached his mouth.

After hearing this, Chen Bing almost laughed out loud and said to himself, "Big Devil, you are not justifying others at all. Haha, but this is in line with the usual style of the Big Devil's work."

Seeing that no one came forward to speak, Liu Zhiyuan continued, "Since you agree that this is a good place, then you can protect it well. I asked you to wait here for this."

Someone among the people heard the implicit sound and whispered again. After about half a cup of tea, the man just now took a step forward and said, "Master, what you call protecting here is to

Let us be the guards of this village?"

There was another person next to him. He glanced at the man just now and said cowardly: "Since you are guarding the village, why not tell me what the elders know so that he can find some horse stair archers, wouldn't that be more convenient?

"

Many echoes were heard among the crowd.

It was not until this time that Ouyang Che understood Liu Zhiyuan's intention, and was grateful, and said to himself: "No wonder Liu Guanren asked about the bandits. He turned out to be aware of the village to protect the bandits, so that he could not help but be sure to protect the village.

Ah." He felt uneasy after hearing the man's words and said angrily: "If those horse stairs and archers are useful, the bandits will go down the mountain to rob? If the government does everything, will Anxu still rebel? If the court is polite to the people, the world will

Why worry about not being clear!”

The person who had just spoken in the crowd shrank his head and stopped saying a word.

Liu Zhiyuan sneered slightly and said, "Ha, you won't let you wait for nothing if you are a guard. I will pay you a monthly salary and I will give you equal land. If you get married in the future, you can have a living place.

Place."

Everyone made a loud noise, but it was still the dark-faced man. He walked out of the crowd and asked Liu Zhiyuan: "You, what you said is true? If you have monthly money, can you still share the land? I dare to ask about this monthly money.

How much is it to give?" Although his face was full of disbelief, his tone of questioning was full of hope.

Liu Zhiyuan said, "Hmph, monthly money is two stakes."

The man was still a little suspicious. After muttering a few words to the person beside him, he bowed his hand. His tone was not as tough as he had just arrived. He said, "This official, we are all refugees who have lost their families. The court is right.

I have always regarded it as a thorn in my eyes. I wish I could say something offended. Will the officials take us directly to the government? I would also ask the government for rewards."

Liu Zhiyuan sneered and said coldly: "Hmph, since I have to hand it over to the government, I just need to inform the government of your whereabouts. Why bother to wait for you to be placed in Huating for a month and change it.

What about clean clothes bringing you here? Why, I'm just looking for fun with myself."

The dark-faced man looked at each other with the people around him. Although they were all moved, they were still a little hesitant.

Liu Zhiyuan was impatient and said, "Forget it. If you don't want to wait, I won't force you. Wuji, go get some food to let these people eat enough so that they can disperse by themselves." After that, he turned around and wanted to

Leave the valley ground.

At this moment, a person was squeezed out of the crowd, and he shouted loudly: "Official! I do!"

Liu Zhiyuan stopped and turned around and asked, "Oh? Do you want to?"

After bowing and saying, "The villain is willing. The villain is named Lu Sixi, who is from Nanshan Village, Nanguan. More than three months ago, a team of soldiers and soldiers stole the side wall and looted my place.

In Nanshan Village, more than 200 people in the village, both men, women, and young, died under the sword of Qi. I was hunting on the mountain at that time, but fortunately I escaped a disaster. But, but my, haha, official,

The journey south was difficult and dangerous. I wanted to join other state roads several times. I was either cheated into being a tenant farmer or wanted to take us to the government to receive rewards. I almost died. Now I finally have a place to stay.

, I can still share the land and get monthly money, I am willing to keep whatever I say!"

Liu Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Sixi in front of him, murmured in his heart: "Nanguan Nanshan Village..." He shook his head,

He pointed his finger behind Liu Wuji and said, "Okay, if you are willing to stay, then stand behind Wuji."

Lu Sixi bowed, stopped talking, walked out of the crowd, and stood behind Liu Wuji.

With the example set by Lu Sixi, two people walked out of the crowd and stood beside Lu Sixi. After a few breaths, several people walked out of the crowd. The dark-faced man was originally

He was still a little hesitant and now he walked out of the crowd. In just half a cup of tea, the original crowd had all moved behind Liu Wuji.

Liu Zhiyuan looked at everyone, nodded, and said to Liu Wuji: "Register these people first, and you can practice according to the method of my brother's past military training. First, practice simple things, mainly to strengthen the body, supplemented by the queue.

, drums and flags, let them identify and remember them. They will be able to practice tomorrow."

After saying that, Liu Zhiyuan looked at the sun that was already a little west, and knew that it was not too early, so he left the valley with Chen Bing and Ouyang Che.

Back at Ouyang Che's home, Ouyang Xiang sifted the rice soup. Although Liu Zhiyuan was thirsty at this time, he still felt it was difficult to sip the rice soup with a sour taste, so he could only shake his head in his heart. After all, the important thing is important and he didn't care about these things.

He said to Ouyang Che: "You know what these people brought by Wuji are for. Now I will arrange them in the two empty houses in the valley. I will ask someone to go to the dry dam to repair some

It’s better to accommodate these people in the house. But, today, you have to restrain the villagers and don’t mention them to the public, especially those in the government, do you understand?”

The Da Chu rule was forbidden to train soldiers in private, so Ouyang Che naturally understood this. He nodded and said, "Officialist Liu, Mrs. Chen, this move is also for the good of the village. Please rest assured that I will definitely restrain the villagers.

I will never let the government know."

Chen Bing said, "Brother Ouyang, in a while, I will send some food here. The food of this guard will be separated from the village. Before that, Brother Ouyang will have to pay more attention."
