The return of Xu Da and the others caused an uproar in the entire village.
Everyone thought that these young people were too impulsive and were going to die like fools. Many villagers had even started to pack their luggage and prepare to hide.
However, he did not expect that these four young men had actually accomplished this great feat by themselves. Not only did they defeat a thousand bandits, but they also killed the leader of the bandits and even robbed the bandits…
Tang He looked at his uncles and brothers in the village proudly and said,""Look, look, what did I say? Big Brother Xu, Little Nine, and the others will definitely win, but they didn't believe me and even said that my head was broken. Now you know who the smart one is!”
"So smart, so smart!"
"Xiaohe, do you think we should share this grain?”
"Yes, yes, yes. Divide the food, divide the food.”
"I see that Xu Da and the others have snatched quite a lot of food this time. Each family will split it equally, and it will last about three to five days.”
"We can't split it equally. My family has five people, and your family only has two. How much can we get if we split it equally? I think it's best to split it according to the number of people."
"Divide it according to the number of people. Your family is taking advantage of you too much."
"How is it an advantage? How is it an advantage? I think you want to take advantage of me."
"I agree to split it according to the number of people."
"No, according to the household."
The villagers surrounding the Xu family's courtyard started to quarrel, and it seemed to be spreading.
"No!" Tang He was anxious. He thought of Xiao Jiu's instructions and quickly said,"Fellow villagers, shouldn't we distribute the rewards according to merit? They approached us and did so many things. Moreover, this grain was also snatched back by Brother Xu Da and the others..."
"No!"
"Why?!"
"We're all from the same village. Why is there a need for special treatment?”
"That's right. Xu Da, Dexing, Tang, and you. We watched you grow up. We took care of you a lot in the past.”
"That's right. Tang and you even stole my eggs.”
"Dexing did it too."
"Xu Da…"
All the sneaky things that the young men who had participated in the killing of the thieves had done were dug out one by one. None of them could be let go. The villagers criticized one after another...
Looking at the saliva coming at him, Tang He shrunk his neck and stopped talking.
In the Xu family's courtyard, Xu Da and the others listened to the argument outside and smiled bitterly.
Even Zhou Dexing, who had always agreed to distribute food to all the villagers, frowned deeply. He thought to himself, Why does it feel like distributing food is a bad thing?!
The other young men who had participated in the killing of the thieves also had indignant expressions on their faces. Why did they not appreciate the fact that they had risked their lives? They even spoke ill of them!
Zhu Wu snickered. He had achieved his goal.
"Big Brother Xu Da, what do you think?" A young man couldn't help but look at Xu Da and say,""I support Xiao Jiu's idea of distributing according to work.”
"Yes, I agree too."
"That's right. We should distribute according to work."
"Why should we fight to the death while they sit back and enjoy the fruits of our labor?”
Xu Da sighed in his heart. It was not easy to lead the team.
He looked at Zhu Wu and a meaningful smile appeared on his tanned face."Xiao Jiu, what do you think?"
Zhu Wu looked at Xu Da's expression and knew that Xu Da had guessed that he had secretly asked Tang He to stir up trouble. However, it did not matter. He did not want to hide it from everyone.
Leaning lazily against the wall, he straightened his body and looked around the courtyard. When everyone had quieted down, he said,"I still say the same thing. No matter how much you've done, no matter how much you've taken. Otherwise, if more thieves come in the future, who would be willing to risk their lives?？”
The young men nodded vigorously.
"But, after all, those outside are all our uncles and brothers.”Zhou Dexing was still frowning.
From the bottom of his heart, he felt that what Xiao Jiu said made sense, but things couldn't be done this way. Otherwise, they would definitely be isolated and ostracized by the village in the future.
Xu Da also had such concerns, which was why he had been unable to make up his mind. However, he now realized that Xiao Jiu had the most ideas, and seeing that he didn't seem worried at all, he wanted to hear what ideas he had.
"Big Brother De Xing, Big Brother Xu Da, I know what you're worried about, so this is what I think-" Zhu Wu chuckled.
"Hehe, everyone knows my brother Zhu Yi.”
" But everyone might not know that Zhu Yi was a Han army soldier of the Tartar court. Because he was unwilling to help the evil and harm the Han people, he became a deserter..."
" Actually, there were more than twenty brothers who escaped with him back then-"
"What I mean is that I want Zhu Yi to gather his brothers, gather the refugees around, and occupy the nearby Langya Mountain as king.”
"In this way, things in the village will be easier to handle.”
After Zhu Wu finished speaking, he looked at everyone again. Most of them had blank expressions, only Xu Da was deep in thought.
As expected, Zhou Dexing, who didn't understand, asked," Little Jiu, you asked Zhu Yi to become a bandit. How did it get involved with our village?”
Xu Da, who spoke at the same time as him, said excitedly,"Xiao Jiu, good idea."
"Ah, what do you mean?"
"Hurry up and explain. Don't be so confused.”Zhou Dexing said unhappily.
"What Xiao Jiu means is that since the other people in the village don't agree to the distribution according to work, then we'll come and cause trouble for the bandits. At that time, we will propose that those who are willing to kill the bandits can get more food, and no one will dare to object. However, at that time…the bandits will not be eliminated as quickly as this time.”
So that was how it was!
Zhou Dexing and the others were enlightened.
Xu Da then turned to Zhu Wu." Little Jiu, this matter will take a lot of effort. I'm afraid it's not just about the distribution of food, right?"”
Zhu Wu nodded and thought to himself, Of course, this is to cover for the soldiers recruited by my system. In the future, the soldiers recruited can be thrown into the bandits 'nest. He still didn't have his own power. Otherwise, why would he go through so much trouble?”
However, he said another reason," Brothers, we Han people bear the highest taxes in Dayuan, but we have been demoted to the fourth class by the Tartars. Our status is even worse than pigs and dogs. In addition, disasters have occurred frequently these years, and many Han people from the south to the north are living a miserable life…This world is going to be in chaos…"
"Could it be that Xiao Jiu wants to rebel?" Xu Da blurted out in surprise.
Everyone in the courtyard had a change in expression, but none of them had any fear or intention of retreating. Instead, they were mostly excited.
Ever since the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed and the Great Yuan Dynasty unified the world, the Han rebellions in the north and south of the Huai River could be said to have risen one after another without stopping for a year.
Everyone was already used to it.
Isn't it just rebellion?
Counting!
