C46 The Death of Xiang Jia Village

The night in Taibai Top gradually quietened down. In the distance, there were scattered orders coming from the wind, while tiger chick sat beside Xiao Letian and lightly wiped the sweat off his forehead with a handkerchief.

Today, Xiao Letian scared Little girl. She didn't expect Xiao Letian to be so daring as to secretly cast silver coin. She also didn't know who Prince was, since both her father and Big Brother Xiao respected him. The little girl could not understand how these people, who had once attacked her, could be so docile and friendly.

Although tiger chick was not favoured at home, she had seen much of the world. Other than being ignorant about overseas business, she understood Xiao Letian's economic layout. She knew that this was a profit out of the fire. Every cent that Xiao Letian earned was actually taken from the cruel government of the evil fire consumption.

tiger chick, who was born in Trader's family, knew better. Breaking off a person's money was like killing their parents. Xiao Letian was digging into the wealth of a corrupt official.

Just when tiger chick was worried about Xiao Letian, the door opened gently. A half drunk Fan Lian walked in. He looked at the sleeping Xiao Letian and patted daughter's shoulder before bringing her out.

"Father, is it really good for Big Brother Xiao to do this?" He was going against all Official in the world! Once the court finds out about this, there will be nine familial exterminations... "

Fan Lian smiled bitterly and said, "daughter, ever since we separated, I knew very well that there is no place for us to hide in this big world." Do you know how many relationships have broken with us since we split up? "They are looking down on me. They think that I would be courting death if I were to go out to clean myself. They don't believe that I can start my business again empty-handed …"

"I don't believe this evil, but I want to let them see with my own eyes, without Family, I, Fan Lian, am still the head of that powerful Jin Shang, and I can still create a big family. And Xiao Letian is our hope … "

Fan Lian did not dare to look into Daughter's eyes. He lowered his head and said, "daughter, I don't know if my choice is right or wrong. concubinage who doesn't want you to be someone else is obviously going to save you. However, I'm a bit afraid to follow father here on this dangerous road. "

"Don't ask too much about this mountain stronghold, just pretend you don't know. Everything is rotten to the stomach …" Especially that Prince thing, you can't even leak out a single shadow. Do you know why I didn't take A Chou? Just because of her big mouth, in the future you will say that you spent these few days in Yi County City … "

The father and daughter duo discussed in the darkness for a long time. From time to time, tiger chick would wipe her tears away with a handkerchief, and behind the flowers, Shi Dakai would silently look at the two of them. Maybe only Hu Xueyan can stand shoulder to shoulder with him. "

Shi Dakai did not know that on the surface, Hu Xueyan, who was currently rich, looked impressive. But to Manchu, she was just like a pig that was getting fatter and fatter. Sooner or later, she would be killed and fed. Right now, all the other powers were staring at him like he was a tiger. If there was even the slightest mistake, the pack of wolves would tear him to shreds.

Hu Xueyan had lost more than 10 million Silver s after her big battle with the foreign merchants. At that time, the Manchu did not say that she needed to undergo emergency blood transfusions to protect Trader, who was able to compete with the foreign merchants. Instead, she said that the local officials were trying to collect deposits and group up to extort and extort.

In the end, Ci Xi gave the order to investigate more strictly. Hu Xueyan's entire body had been stripped clean, and she could no longer afford to end up with a sick death.

Xiao Letian didn't want to follow in Hu Xueyan's footsteps. He didn't even want his father-in-law to take the risk for him. In the real history, Xiao Letian had already seen it clearly. They saw everyone as Slave, and they saw all the Chinese as lambs waiting to be slaughtered. As long as you got fat and entered their eyes, your end would always be a pack of wolves dismembering.

Therefore, if Xiao Letian wanted to rebel, he would first start with the decaying financial system of the Manchu. Since he did not want to be a civilian, he would first dig out a large chunk of flesh from the fire consumption.

In the morning of the second day, Xiao Letian bid farewell to Shi Dakai and returned to Yi County City. Right now, he was already rather famous in Daqing, so it was impossible for him to play for a long time and disappear.

Thanks to the loyalty of the Yi County's bureaucracy towards Xiao Letian, they managed to hide the news of him secretly entering the sect. In the eyes of the Yi County's people, Alone overseas Xiao Letian had been living in Qing San Ye's house all this time.

After that, in the days at Yi County, Xiao Letian began to quickly finish writing every chapter of The Journey to the West . He passed it down to the Capital using horses, and when Han Lin, Luo Hao, and the military computer, Zhang Jing and Wen Xiu received the latest article, they immediately brought over ten or so writers to spread it around, and immediately posted it in all the bookstores of the Northern Capital City.

Right now, in front of the bookstore in North Capital City, there was only book reader, who was waiting for the update, and the people of Housekeeper's underlings. Every time the latest chapter was posted, the black mass of crowd would immediately surround it. In Tongzhi's four years of spring, Xiao Letian had truly made a name for himself in Beijing.

With Xiao Letian's war of words with Wong Lao-Han Lin, the bizarre kidnapping case, and even the Industrial Zones's plan that caused a flurry of discussions in the imperial court, all of these things pushed Xiao Letian's reputation to the peak. With Manchu Top's unfathomable silence, all of the forces in the area smelled something different.

The court was still the same. empress dowagers, who was in charge of the court carefully balanced the situation. Fu Qing no longer dared to discuss the plans of their Industrial Zones on the court. On the contrary, under the cover of yamen Prime Minister, they had secretly started the first phase of their investigation.

In the spring of this year, the military commander of the Central Asia, A Gubai, had begun meddling in the pars dorsalis's rebellion, and under the support of the Russia, he openly dispatched troops to invade the western part of Empire. It seemed that the event of Zuo Zongtang entering the Xinjiang was inevitable.

As for Ceng Guofan, who was in the midst of exterminating the remaining evils of Heaven's Balance, he actually made an excuse to exterminate long hair remnant and return to the capital to report. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Zeng Family Brothers was silently protesting against the court, it seemed like Jiang Nan's plan for the Industrial Zones would not be able to avoid these two brothers.

In general, Daqing was still not at peace, which made the ambitious book reader more and more willing to study Xiao Letian's western studies. Some of the militants even started to link up with each other privately, wanting to become the first batch of Western students.

Although the days in late Qing were heavy, there were always some who woke up first, and there were always some who were willing to accept change. However, change was always painful, for example, Xiang Shaolong who let Xiao Letian go.

In the mountain of Yanqing County in the west of the capital, there was a place called Xiang Jia Village.

In the threshing floor in front of the Villages, thirty to forty soldiers of the Disciple were riding on horses. No one dared to be lazy under Master's gaze as sweat dripped down from their foreheads.

Xiang Shaolong, who was sitting on the millstone, looked as if he was staring at Disciple, but if you looked carefully, you would see that he was actually in a daze.

Xiang Shaolong had been recuperating at home these few days. He would recall Xiao Letian's words to him as well as the events in the《 Journey to the West》. Those weird words often made him lose his appetite.

It was said that curiosity killed the cat. Xiang Shaolong was a person with too much curiosity. Otherwise, he wouldn't be enchanted by Xiao Letian's rebellious thoughts. Unfortunately, it was precisely because of this mistake that his Xiang Jia Village fell into a deep crisis.

In the fierce battle that night, only four or five of his own Disciple died, and many of his own disciples were injured. More than twenty disciples had been beaten into pockmarks by the iron sand seed, and Xiang Shaolong had spent more than ten thousand silvers on the pension and medicine fees of the wounded.

The heroes of the martial world valued camaraderie less than money. Although Xiang Shaolong appeared to have a big background, his family was not rich. If it weren't for the protection fees he received from Yanqing on the way to Zhangjiakou, Xiang Jia Village would have starved to death just by growing crops. Now that more than ten thousand silver had been used up, the days of Xiang Jia Village were getting more and more pressing.

However, Xiang Shaolong did not regret it at all. Since he had chosen to release the man, he would not regret it at all. Right now, Xiang Shaolong was stunned only because of Xiao Letian's story about the development of Speargun. He was attracted by the colorful world of firearms.

"How spectacular would it be for a foreigner to be so smart as to invent a machine gun and fire thousands of bullets in an instant?" Just as he was thinking, a crying figure suddenly ran into the manor.

"Uncle Long …" Wu wu wu, Uncle Long … "I'm sorry, I was expelled by the county's school …" The one who ran over was a 14 or 15 year old boy. He knelt in front of Xiang Shaolong and cried loudly.

Everyone present looked, wasn't this the Elementary Scholar from Xiang Jia Village, Dragon Lord's nephew, Xiang Ying? He was one of the Xiang Family's Kirin Children who had been praised by Elder Yang and High Scholar in the county. He was proficient in reading and writing, and was currently in Elder Yang's private school.

Amidst Xiang Ying's sobbing, the people of Xiang Jia Village were enraged. It turned out that Xiang Ying had been scolded by Old High Scholar in front of countless students, saying that the Xiang Jia Village's bandit was born with a lowly moral character. Such a person was not fit to read the Book of Virtue, and had expelled Xiang Ying on the spot.

"Let's go, let's go to the county to argue. When has our Xiang Jia Village ever done bandit's work? "No matter how high Yang Wugou's status is, don't even think about sullying our innocence and start a lawsuit against him …" crowd was just about to walk out when Xiang Shaolong shouted loudly.

"All of you shut up, I'm in charge here …" "Xiang Ying, be more careful. What else did Yang High Scholar say?" Xiang Shaolong asked.

"Wuwuwu, he even said that someone from the County Yamen has already sued us, saying that we are extorting the Caravan … And in the end, Master even told me in a low voice, "Let me die to read. Let's …" "Our Xiang Family can forget about book reader in a hundred years …

I understand, Xiang Shaolong immediately understood that it was that Wu Junyi from Capital City who made a move. How vicious, you actually want to break the Xiang Family's century-old reputation? However, Xiang Shaolong knew that that Wu Junyi from Capital City had this power.

What a fast revenge! Xiang Shaolong's entire body was trembling. Suddenly, a black light shot towards his face. It was actually a hidden weapon.

"Who is it?" "How dare you put on airs in front of me!" Xiang Shaolong waved his hand and a small sleeve arrow fell into his hands. But when he looked closely, there was a letter wrapped around the sleeve arrow.

"Dragon Lord's kung fu is really good, but I don't know if you can deal with thousands of soldiers and horses. "Hahaha, we'll pay you back then …" The sound quickly disappeared.

Xiang Shaolong had a good memory. At that time, he knew that this was the Sima Yun of the Xiao Letian Zhou Iron and Steel Company. He was a young man with excellent lightness skills. He raised his hand to stop the pursuers from chasing him and opened the secret letter.

"Escape Xiang Jia Village immediately. officers and soldiers is besieging this place tonight. There are Gun s here, remember not to be mantis in the car. Tch."
