After Yu Cheng was taken away, everyone thought that the matter had come to an end. However, they were too naive!

Two days later, an official from the Yamen arrived at their town. While sitting on a sturdy white Horse, the woman opened a scroll and announced in a loud voice,

“Yu Cheng, the son of Yu Linyun and Qiu Bai had accepted and admitted his crimes. He will walk around the town fifteen times for committing the crime of ruining the reputation of an official’s son.” Find more chapters on My Virtual Library Empire

“He will also be imprisoned for five years and twenty-nine days for burning the property of Madam Yu. He is also liable to pay the compensation of one million taels, however, due to his imprisonment this compensation shall be transferred to his family for the next five years.”

After the announcement, the officer walked over to where Old Master Tong was kneeling on the ground.

His hands as well as his entire body were trembling but the officer did not care about it, she simply came to a stop in front of him and handed him the document that was written and stamped by the magistrate herself.

Old Master Tong never expected that he would face such a day in his life. Not only was his grandson taken away but he was also punished to pay a million tael, where would he get a million taels?

Old Master Tong was so shocked that as soon as he received the documents in his hands, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

The officials however had no intention of caring about the old mer who had fainted. They came to this village to work, not to care for old and agitated mers. The officials assessed the state of the old Yu family’s property and fields.

If they failed to pay the compensation then they would have to pay it through their assets.

The Big River Village villagers were stunned when they heard that the Old Yu family was in such big trouble.

They didn’t think that the consequence of setting someone’s field on fire would be this bad. The compensation was a million taels! How grand was that amount?

Even if they ate northwest wind and drank dew for their entire lives, they could not earn such a big sum of money.

“That Yu Cheng is really a jinx! Just look at the trouble he had caused.”

“I didn’t know that we need to pay compensation for setting fire to someone’s field,” one of the villagers said with a dumbfounded expression.

“Of course, you have to pay for harming others’ property,” Wu Junfen who was dressed in pure white robes walked over to where the crowd had gathered and said to them, “If there was no need to enforce the law then what was the point of having the yamen?”

“Yamen and the lord of yamen exist to bring justice to those who are wronged. It is just that Yu Dong’s case is much bigger than you expect. Do you even know that Yu Dong pays more than two million taels a month as tax? Because of this loss, she cannot pay it.”

“This loss which Yu Cheng caused made her suffer, belongs to not just Yu Dong alone but also the officials, because of this the punishment is much bigger than anyone expected.”

“Two million taels, how many refugees do you think Magistrate Li is taking care of? And in the current situation, the town’s people cannot even get drinking water. Magistrate Li has to purchase water as well. Where do you think the money is coming from?”

“Not to mention, the imperial family had increased the grain taxes as well as they have also requested able-bodied women to join the army just in case they cannot pay taxes.”

“Yu Dong is paying for that too.”

Wu Junfen sighed, “Yu Dong is the owner of the village, she is not just earning money and living in comfort. There are a bunch of responsibilities on her shoulders, do you think that it is so easy to become the owner of a village?”

“Really? Such a thing happened?” One of the women asked with widened eyes.

“If not? If you do not believe then go and ask around. Even some of the women from Da Qiao’s village had to leave their families and were dragged to join the army,” Wu Junfen was not lying so she feared nothing and no one.

As soon as she finished speaking, the women looked at one another before sneakily taking their leave.

It was not that they did not trust Wu Junfen. They just believed that for the sake of making Yu Dong look even better, Wu Junfen was exaggerating things.

But as they went to the Big Mountain village, they heard a bunch of mers crying.

They asked around and found out from Da Qiao that some families promised to pay twenty taels of silver to waive the problem of their daughters going to the army and working for the imperial army.

But they could not collect twenty taels and their daughters were taken away.

These mers were now filled with grief and fear for the safety of their daughters and wives.

When the women heard how serious the situation was they panicked.

Didn’t Wu Junfen say that Yu Dong can not afford to pay the taxes this month?

Does that mean that they would be dragged away!?

Even though they were earning well, they did not have twenty taels in their hands to pay the army!

When Da Qiao saw that the women were scared silly, she curled her lips in a lighthearted smile and said, “Your village should come up with a way to deal with this mess. You are much more luckier than us, at least you can earn in this drought. We on the other hand still need to wait for the pickle mill to open.”

When she talked about the pickle mill, Da Qiao was filled with hatred towards the elders.

Those old women were not good at coming up with ways to earn money but they were quick to snatch it all up.
