352. The Seed of Faith

As the bandits gathered here, the originally depressed homeless settlement suddenly seemed to be a little more angry.

Although some bandits went to the homeless people's houses to steal the sun-dried corn cobs, the homeless people didn't say anything when they found out, but Ren Xiaosu beat the goods hard and confiscated all his bullets.

The homeless people also persuaded Ren Xiaosu not to be so heavy, and the bandits who were beaten were ashamed of themselves.

After that, it never happened again.

However, there were originally people in this homeless who bullied other homeless people, and went to other people's houses to eat like a bastard every day, but Jin Lan couldn't stand it, so they beat up these bastards, and then carried them to the bandit pile to be reformed......

It's okay for these bastards to bully the homeless, but bullying the bandits is something that they can't even think of.

The brick and stone houses rose from the ground, and the bandits had all the strength to work very quickly.

Ren Xiaosu looked at Xu Jinyuan directing the construction of the house, and there was a female homeless person next to him looking at this goods with affection, he turned his head to Yang Xiaojin and said, "He is one of the people you said had a problem before, right?"

"Well," Yang Xiaojin nodded, "But it doesn't seem to be a thief." ”

Before, Yang Xiaojin was still thinking about whether this group of people would make trouble, and had been secretly observing these people, and at that time she wondered why Ren Xiaosu was not worried, but she found that her worries were superfluous.

Seeing that Xu Jinyuan is now looking forward to exchanging bullets day by day.

This time, they built twelve houses in one go, and on this desolate wasteland, there were finally brick houses rising again, Ren Xiaosu looked at all this, and there was a trace of complex feelings in his heart, those solid brick houses, as if symbolizing the continuation of human civilization.

Each house is about 28 square meters, and a house needs more than 1,900 bricks to accommodate more than ten people.

Although the house is still a little small compared to their number, the bricks of the second kiln have already begun to burn, and they can be taken out in two days to continue building the house.

Jin Lan and Zhang Yiheng bragged to the homeless people yesterday, saying that they wanted everyone to have a house to live in.

Ren Xiaosu asked him with a smile at that time: "When you have saved up enough bullets, will you still build a house?"

Jin Lan said embarrassedly: "You can't watch the fellow continue to live in the cave, there are so many children, living in the cave is very damp, and it is not good for their health." ”

Zhang Yiheng answered: "We can also build a school and a factory......

Ren Xiaosu was happy: "Build a fart factory, how can we have the technology to make a factory." ”

"What if there is one in the future," Zhang Yiheng muttered.

At this time, Ren Xiaosu walked towards the brick and stone houses that had just been completed, and he asked Jin Lan, "Count how many bullets everyone has?"

It has been more than twenty days since the bandits started to work, and many people should have saved enough bullets, Jin Lan counted for a long time and came back scratching his head and said: "Because there were new brothers joining some time ago, we gave them a lot of bullets, so everyone is about two or three short, and it should be enough for everyone to make bricks for another day tomorrow." ”

It's really because the new bandits have slowed down everyone's progress, otherwise counting some additional brick moving costs, clay mixing costs, and sowing costs, these bandits should have saved enough bullets a long time ago.

Fortunately, there have been no new bandits joining recently, and the number is almost controlled at about 400 people, of course, there are some who have escaped, but there are very few.

Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin said that there should be bandit forces in the north going south, otherwise they wouldn't have been here for more than ten days, and not a single new bandit came.

So I'm afraid that what they will have to face next is friction with the northern forces to see who can overcome whom.

It was only at this time that Yang Xiaojin recalled that they were here to suppress the bandits......

But now is not the time to think about it, Ren Xiaosu said with a smile: "You haven't counted the bullets for building a house today, I said before that each person involved in building a house has 15 bullets, and he will do what he says." ”

Saying that, Jin Lan and the others suddenly became excited, after more than 20 days of hard work, this effort is finally going to bear fruit!

If Ren Xiaosu returned the guns to them at the beginning, they would definitely not be excited, because those guns were theirs, and they were given by other forces for nothing.

But now it's different, and it's like an honor to save a hundred bullets for guns, and it's not because they're excited about the gun, it's because they're qualified to hold a gun in this settlement.

As if this qualification was worth a thousand gold, they were not so happy to rob the caravan in the past, and they were not so proud at that time, because they had earned it with their sweat.

Ren Xiaosu asked Jin Lan to bring people to bring all the arms over: "What are you going to do when you get these guns?"

Jin Lan said excitedly: "Robbery, our hundreds of people are so united, we can definitely sweep the entire south!"

Jin Lan didn't say too much, after all, there are several gangs of bandits in the north who are still very fierce.

Ren Xiaosu was silent for a moment, he pointed to the homeless people who were watching them next to him and said, "Rob them?"

The onlookers were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and Jin Lan hurriedly explained: "If we don't rob you, why should we rob you." ”

"But there are still many people like them," Ren Xiaosu said, "They also have children and wives." ”

At this time, Xu Jinyuan was puzzled: "Then what are we doing with guns?"

"Protect them," Ren Xiaosu said with a smile, he pointed to the female homeless who hooked up with Xu Jinyuan every day and said, "Protect Xiaocui, protect the villagers, protect your family." ”

Xu Jinyuan stopped talking, and Xiaocui shyly sent him Qiubo outside......

Ren Xiaosu picked up a gun and handed it to Xu Jinyuan with both hands: "Take this gun, we are a family, comrades-in-arms, brothers, and family." ”

Xu Jinyuan took the gun with a twist, and then Jin Lan and Zhang Yiheng were excited.

They were holding black and cold guns, as if they were holding a treasure, and Jin Lan said to the villagers: "Don't worry, with my old Jin, no bandits can rob you!"

Yang Xiaojin watched all this silently from the side, looking at the young man who was like the protagonist in the center of the stage, she once said that it was difficult to make a group of bandits find faith, and it would be good to be united.

But unexpectedly, just over 20 days later, a collective concept has quietly taken shape, and a belief in "guardianship" has also quietly emerged.

There is no very grand family and country feelings, and the belief that Ren Xiaosu conveyed to the bandits is to guard, protect their property, protect their families, protect their friends, and everything is from the perspective of self-interest.

They don't need to maintain world peace or anything, this kind of thing has nothing to do with them.

Of course, whether it is the strength, will or belief of this group, it is only a small seed.

If they really leave Ren Xiaosu, a powerful individual, and a rope that holds them together, I am afraid that they will soon disperse and go their separate ways.

Or if you encounter a strong enemy now, you can quickly defeat them.

But Yang Xiaojin felt that it was great that Ren Xiaosu could bury this seed.
