Chapter 160 Well done, all are great
Yun Dachuan was supported by his eldest son and slowly walked to Yun He's side. He looked at everyone with a serious expression and said, "The men of our Yun family have never been cowards! The world is difficult now, and we must take action.
My Yun and Dashun families will each send two young men to follow Master Cheng to wipe out the bandits.
We can no longer hide in our tortoise shells, otherwise we will sooner or later become captives of bandits. Men will be forced to work in mines, and women and children will be even more miserable. Such a life is even worse than that of animals.
Therefore, we must rely on ourselves this time. We must all work together to take down the bandit's lair. We have done a good thing and cleared the way for the poor people who will take this mountain road in the future. We will also record this in our family tree, and we can brag about it in front of our descendants."
Yun Dachuan's voice was firm and powerful, and the blood of the Yunjia Village men present was boiling with enthusiasm. Their eyes flashed with determination, as if they had seen the dawn of victory.
Yunhe went on to say: "The clan leader is right. We must let these bandits know that the people of Yunjia Village are not easy to bully! We must make them pay the price!" His words were full of fighting spirit and determination, which strengthened the confidence of the people present.
"Yes! We can't let these bandits succeed!" a young villager shouted excitedly. Others echoed and expressed their willingness to follow everyone's lead.
Master Cheng is doing this for everyone. If it weren't for Master Cheng and Master Yun's family, there would be no need for them to accompany us through the mountains. We can't retreat just because we encountered bandits."
"If you are willing to do so, we in Chujia Village will not be cowards," said Chu Dahu, the eldest son of Chu Village.
Chu Tieniu also said excitedly, "I believe in Master Cheng and Duo'er. Attacking the bandit stronghold is for everyone. We are willing to join together. My father said that my family will also send two people this time."
"If the head falls off, it will only leave a scar the size of a bowl. We Chu family members are not cowards. We are willing to go together."
"I am coming too,"
"There are two people from my family."
Everyone was talking at once, and the atmosphere was extremely heated.
Later, several families who did not belong to their two villages, and several young and strong men stepped forward and expressed their willingness to follow Cheng Yuheng and Yun Duo to attack the bandit stronghold.
These people knew that the bandits were numerous, and if they went with fewer people, they would not be able to fight them, and their parents, wives and children would also be captured. If more people went, the chances of winning would be greater. At most, it would be their own life, and if they could save the lives of their families, it would be worth it.
Wu Erzhu ignored his parents' objection and walked up to Yun Chenyang, "Brother Yang, count me in. Although my last name is not Yun, I am also a member of Yunjia Village. I cannot hold our Yunjia Village back."
The old lady Wu Er was sitting on the ground and was about to throw a tantrum, but was stopped by a look from Wu Erzhu.
She felt that if she really threw a tantrum, Wu Erzhu might really separate from them.
She held back the words she was about to say, pretended to brush off the dust on her body, stood up and looked at Old Lady Wu, who seemed to be hesitant to speak, then walked behind Wu Er and hid.
In just a short while, more than a hundred people have signed up. Yunhe nodded with satisfaction, "Anyone else wants to sign up?"
After waiting for another cup of tea, Yunhe continued to say, "Okay, you are all great. This time, we will not let everyone work in vain. Master Cheng is willing to give each person who participates in the bandit suppression ten taels of silver. If the bandit nest is successfully captured, each person will be given 50 kilograms of food. The ten taels of silver will be distributed to everyone in advance before the action."
"We don't want money. We fight bandits for our families. How can we take money from Master Cheng?"
“Yes, we don’t want to…”
Yunhe looked at the people below who were talking excitedly, so he raised his hand to signal for everyone to be quiet, and then said loudly: "Everyone be quiet! Listen to me for a few words.
In this bandit suppression operation, we must all obey Master Cheng's command.
No matter what you find in the bandit den, you must not be greedy, let alone hide it privately, because those are stolen goods and will be handed over to the court in the future.
However, Master Cheng is kindhearted and considerate of everyone's hard work, so he decided to take money out of his own pocket to compensate everyone who participated in this operation, ten taels of silver per person!"
Hearing this, the noise in the crowd gradually subsided, and people's faces showed expressions of joy and anticipation.
Ten taels of silver was not a small sum for them, and it could solve many of their life difficulties. At the same time, they were full of gratitude to Mr. Cheng for his generosity.
Yunhe continued, “I hope everyone can carry out their mission seriously, obey Master Cheng’s command, and catch these hateful bandits in one fell swoop to rid the people of this harm.
After completing the task, everyone can take the money to the south and live a better life.
Now, let's work together and make joint efforts! " After saying that, everyone looked at Cheng Yuheng with admiration and gratitude.
Everyone responded, expressing their willingness to follow Master Cheng's command and go all out to complete the task of eliminating bandits. The atmosphere was warm and morale was high.
Some people in the crowd were happy, while others felt regretful, and this was most obvious from the two branches of the Wu family.
When Mrs. Wu heard that there was still ten taels of silver, she was overjoyed and thought to herself that it was a good thing that she did not listen to her sister-in-law and make a fuss, otherwise how could she have earned ten taels of silver.
The old lady Wu regretted her decision. She wondered in her heart, if she had not sold Wu Dazhui at that time, could she have let Wu Dazhui earn the ten taels of silver now?
If I had known about this opportunity earlier, even if I was afraid of the danger, wouldn't it be better to just let Wu Sanzhu go and hide behind and not show up?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wu couldn't wait to ask, "Village Chief, can my son Sanzhu go too?"
However, Yunhe ignored her, as if he didn't hear her words.
It was Yun Qingbai, who was standing behind Yun He, who responded, "Aunt Wu, the registration has ended. No more waiting after the deadline!" There was a hint of indifference and sarcasm in his tone, as if he was dissatisfied with Aunt Wu's sudden change of mind.
