portion already. This crossbow and dagger are not easy to make, there are only eight sets. But the belts are easy to make, and everyone in the family will have one later.”Then Jiahuan laughed, rubbin...The divine physician Zhang, who had been idly listening to the commotion, stepped forward a few paces and stretched out his arm to feel the woman's pulse.

He tugged and pushed at random, and the woman cried out in pain as her arm became movable again.

The woman's tears flowed even harder, she wiped her face fiercely twice, then hugged her two children tightly and gritted her teeth, saying, "Uncle Village Head, the soldiers secretly gamble outside, and he has lost all the silver from home!"

"I just paid him, and he still wants to take more. I disagreed, so he tore off my arm! Now, the money bag is still with him!"

Gambling!

All faces turned pale, and the village head even stood up directly.

"Comrades, search through the soldiers' belongings and find their money bags!"

Two villagers immediately stepped forward. One embraced Wei Dayun, while the other reached into his pocket and rummaged around.

Wei Dagun finally couldn't pretend to be dead, struggling desperately and shouting, "What are you doing This is my family's silver!"

Unfortunately, no one paid him any attention. Not only did they take his wallet, but they also pushed him to the ground and pinned him down.

Wei's sister-in-law took the money bag and, having decided to go all out, had her two children kowtow to the village head and Li Laoer and the others.

"Village Chief Uncle, Second Master, the child's father is not a good man! This past summer, the child was craving dumplings and said he would go buy meat. When he came back, he didn't bring any meat, just claimed he had gotten rich. Since then, he has disappeared every few days."

I thought he was lazy and didn't want others to know, so he would grit his teeth and support the family, thinking that if I persuaded him enough, it would be fine. But he became more and more excessive. During this period, not only did he not do any work, but for five or six days out of ten, he didn't even stay at home.

The day before yesterday, he urged me to ask when the wages would be paid. I felt something was wrong, so I got him drunk, and only then did he say that he owed gambling debts and was going to have his leg broken!

"Shut your mouth, you old hag! I was just talking casually, I didn't gamble!"

Wei Dagun struggled, still wanting to beat his daughter-in-law, but the village head was truly furious!

At first, everyone fled for their lives and when they reached Broken Gold Beach, they made a pact to live a good life from then on.

Men don't gamble or engage in prostitution, and the village never abandons one of its people, nor will the villagers ever betray their village!

This is a rule that everyone, men, women, the elderly, and even young children who are still in school know. Even if companions from the other three villages ask about things in their village, the children refuse to say much.

Now, Wei's army is the first to break the rules!

Six months, a whole six months!

He's been hanging around outside, is he just gambling Has anyone tricked him into talking about village matters

Or, even if he hasn't betrayed the village for now, who can guarantee he won't turn against it when he's desperate for money later on

This is a giant firecracker that could go off at any moment!

The village head and Zhao Shu exchanged glances, their spines tingling with fear. More than that, they felt a mixture of lingering dread and anger.

Usually, they thought they were managing the village very well. Unexpectedly, something like this happened right under their noses!

"Hang him up for me! Where are the whips Beat him to a pulp, make him tell me everything clearly!"

The village head's face turned ashen, and he roared, "When did he go gambling Who took him there Where did he gamble How much debt does he owe Has he betrayed the village in any way Get me all the answers, not a single word left out!"

This time, it was Liu the鏢 head who took action himself. He directly tied up Wei Da-jun and hung him from the eaves.

The village head, wielding a whip, personally lashed Wei Dayun over ten times. The pain caused him to scream like a pig being slaughtered.

Zhao Shu was afraid the sound would travel too far, so he stuffed a cloth into his mouth.

In the courtyard, a sparrow chirped silently. Men, women, and children all held their breath.

Don't even mention moving here to Suijin Beach, even on the run for their lives, they hadn't seen the village head start a fire this big back in Qing Shui Village.

Some people may feel that they are making a big deal out of nothing, wanting to express their feelings but being too afraid to speak up.

But the two children of the Wei family were somewhat reluctant to part with their father, and they burst into tears.

The village head threw the whip to Liu Biaotou, telling him to continue beating the man. Then he turned back and glared at the two children, "Why are you crying! Even if your father is beaten to death today, you shouldn't be afraid! This old bone of mine will provide for your education, save money for your dowries and wedding expenses!"

But Wei's sister-in-law held onto the child tightly, not showing even a bit of sympathy.

"Village Chief Uncle, you can teach him a lesson, even beat him to death, we won't blame you! Last year's bonus and this year's wages, totaling over a hundred taels, were all lost by him. "

“If we let him go on like this, I fear the three of us will be sold to pay off his debts! He won't let us live, so we don't care about his life either!”

"Good, that's how it should be!" Tao Hongying and Sun Er-sao echoed along, encouraging Wei Saozi, "In the village, if you work hard, you can earn work points and get grain. Even without men to help us, we women can still survive and raise our children!"

Wei Dagun, hanging precariously from the eaves, had originally hoped someone would plead on his behalf. Hearing these words, he finally panicked, sobbing and trying to speak.

Unfortunately, Liu Biaotou had just become a father in his old age. As the pillar of the family, he was feeling extremely responsible at this time. To encounter such a worthless man who didn't cherish his wife and child filled him with contempt. He whipped the man five or six times, venting his own anger before finally stopping.

Wei Dayun was in so much pain he nearly fainted, but he didn't dare to. As soon as his mouth was free, he quickly told the whole story.

He wasn't very intelligent to begin with, and he didn't know where he went wrong, so he was talking nonsense.

Finally, it was Lao Er Li who asked a question, and he answered one by one, until he figured out what was going on.

As it turned out, when he went to Xiaowangzhuang to buy meat that time, the butcher shop was out of meat. A villager from Xiaowangzhuang named Zhangjin, who was going into town, offered to take him along to look for a butcher shop in the city.

On the road, Zhang Jin said that there was a good place to get rich, where you could have silver without working.

He went to the casino, with only two hundred wen, and won more than five taels of silver.

After that, he tasted the sweetness and went to "play" with Zhang Jin every few days.

But after winning a few times before, he started losing more than he won. He owed the gambling house over twenty taels of silver and also owed Zhang Jin over ten taels!

Zhang Jin is his good brother, he didn't urge him to repay the debt, but the casino issued an ultimatum, if he doesn't pay back the money, they will break his leg!

Zhang Jin advised him to bring several villagers to the casino. The casino would give them a commission, and it could also help him pay off his debts.

But he dared not, for fear that the villagers would be unwilling to gamble, and then expose him.

The result was that when payday arrived, although the wages were not enough to repay the debt, giving a portion of it would at least temporarily save his legs…

Li Lao'er and the village head gathered together to discuss, all pointing their target at that Zhang Jin.

There's no such thing as love at first sight in this world. Even if there were, it wouldn't happen to someone like Wei Dajun.

Could it be that they're attracted to his laziness and stupidity

He only has one shining point, being on Gold Beach!

This is someone who successfully tore a hole in Wei's army from the villagers!

The village head's heart was like oil being fried, he pulled the whip and lashed Wei Dagun several times!

Wei Dagun cried out in anguish, he had clearly given his word, how could he still be beaten

As a result, the village head asked more specifically.

"Zhang Jin asked, "What did each household get from the village's dividends"

Haven't you asked about Lord Hou and Mr. Wen

Have you asked about the secret to growing golden fruits and jade gourds in the village

Wei Dayun couldn't take the beating, even if he tried to hide it, he couldn't.

He wished he could empty his mind and recite every word he had ever said to Zhang Jin.ied!"Even so, Wang Sheng and Liu Kui still took advantage of loopholes in the documents, forcing our family servants to compete with them. They were determined to win against Xianke Lai, being utterly...
