346. Pay and you will reap

The long winter in the northwest region is finally coming to an end, and Ren Xiaosu sees that there are plants next to the river that sprout, and also sees that the insects dormant in the soil are gradually beginning to wake up.

The spring flood is coming, and the snow-capped mountains that stretch for thousands of miles in the northwest will gradually melt, and the sun will turn the ice and snow into tens of thousands of streams, and then converge from west to east to become a turbulent river.

Some people say that this water comes from heaven and flows to the east without cease.

The valley will have the most abundant water supply in the spring, when the water will fill in the gullies and turn the yellow-colored valleys into riverbeds.

Ren Xiaosu wants to take the bandits to make enough bricks before the spring flood comes.

As soon as the spring flood arrives with the trees upstream, they can start the kiln to burn bricks.

Some people say that why bother to burn bricks so hard, just build some adobe houses, haven't everyone always lived like this?

As a result, Ren Xiaosu said, "Why can people live in brick houses, but we can't live in them?" And we have to build not only houses, but also fortifications.

A homeless person asked if he wanted to build a new barrier, Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment, he smiled and said Isn't it good in the wilderness, why do you enclose everyone.

At this point, the homeless people were silent, but they were more diligent in their work.

The bandits put down their guns and dug up the mud on the edge of the valley barefoot, and dug up baskets of mud and made bricks on the ground.

It's easy to dig up the mud, but it's even harder to do, because the bandits brought all the guns, not even a shovel, and they had to dig the mud all the time.

The weather was cold, and the fierce bandits were freezing like their grandsons, but they still insisted on doing it.

"If you force them so hard, will they give up?" asked Yang Xiaojin.

"No," Ren Xiaosu smiled and said, "The more tired they are, the more they believe that all this is true, and the more relaxed they are, the more they will suspect that all this is fake." ”

"Then they'll find out one day," Ms. Yang said.

Ren Xiaosu turned his head to Yang Xiaojin and said seriously: "I want to build a home here, this idea was not so clear before, but when I saw them working, this idea gradually became clear, and I will give them an explanation when the time comes." ”

And this is also Ren Xiaosu's first step in training these bandits, he must first let these bandits who are used to eating and being lazy and robbing their homes and houses to reverse their habits.

Let them suffer here, and then build up a strange emotion called shared suffering.

After a tired day, the bandits complained one by one, and even Jin Lan began to waver, he glanced at the mud on his hands and feet, and was almost tired and cried: "Otherwise, let's go back to be bandits, and don't go to the Laoshizi 178 barrier, it's too bitter!"

"That's right," someone sat weakly on the edge of the riverbed, looking up to the sky in a daze: "What are we doing?" ”

Jin Lan and Zhang Yiheng are now the captain of the first team and the captain of the second team respectively, and some people are even more shaken when they see that the captain has begun to waver.

At noon, some homeless people from the settlement suddenly came over with baskets, and they put the baskets on the ground, and Jin Lan asked curiously, "Fellow countryman, what is this?"

An honest homeless man smiled embarrassedly and said: "You helped us dig the ditch before, but I never had time to thank you, this is your own nest, it's not delicious, don't dislike it." ”

Jin Lan was stunned for a moment, he didn't know how to deal with such a scene for a while, and suddenly scolded when the words came to his mouth: "What a foolish politeness, don't be polite to Lao Tzu, let it go, and there is a squeak that needs help with work." ”

Jin Lan had an expression that Lao Tzu didn't want to help you, Lao Tzu just wanted to work, and stunned the homeless people.

At this time, someone asked Jin Lan: "Captain, let's run, just tonight?"

As a result, Jin Lan hesitated for a moment and said: "Hold on for two more days to see the situation, and it's not too late to run again in two days! You see that the villagers have sent us a nest, let's at least build a house for others!"

When the work was finished that night, everyone was spread on the ground and didn't want to move, Ren Xiaosu came to the river and looked at the bricks sandwiched in the wooden boards: "Get up, come to get the bullets, one by one only recognize the bricks you made, ten for one." ”

People are just very strange, obviously this bullet was originally theirs, and the bullet is not valuable, and it is not very interesting when working, but when they find out that they can exchange it, everyone is still a little happy.

Jin Lan got up and said, "I! I made thirty bricks today, the silt is too difficult to dig, otherwise I can make more!"

Ren Xiaosu nodded: "Well, I'll send you three bullets." ”

Jin Lan looked at the three yellow bullets in her palm, and felt that she felt some inexplicable emotion and sense of accomplishment in her heart......

But these are obviously three ordinary bullets, what's going on?

This is the method that Ren Xiaosu thought of, if he just buried himself in work, these bandits would be frustrated because they couldn't see the "end" of "progress" at all.

But when he dismantled the process into 100 bullets and let the bandits measure their own results, he had a hopeful goal.

Jin Lan began to calculate at this moment that he could take three bullets a day, and if he became proficient in the future, he might be able to take four or even five bullets a day, and he would be able to get out of the sea of suffering in less than a month.

Thinking about it like this, Jin Lan suddenly felt that she could persist any longer, and it was a big deal to leave after a month, and it didn't take much time.

At this time, he looked at the others, and when he saw that Zhang Yiheng only had two bullets in his hand, he laughed: "You old boy can't do it, why are there only two bullets." ”

Zhang Yiheng's face turned red: "Lao Tzu is not skilled, tomorrow will definitely be more than you." ”

Then Zhang Yiheng looked next to him, and there were still people who didn't have bullets in their hands, and he was also happy: "Lao Tzu is not the worst!"

Ren Xiaosu didn't say anything, didn't criticize those who worked less, and didn't praise those who worked more.

Jin Lan leaned in with a smile: "Big brother, how do you look at me, I have worked the most today." ”

Ren Xiaosu said noncommittally: "You have to understand, it is you who want to pass the assessment, so I gave you this opportunity, but I didn't do anything for me." ”

After speaking, Ren Xiaosu turned around and left.

Jin Lan stayed behind Ren Xiaosu for a long time before she was stunned and said, "Thank you, big brother, for giving us this opportunity!"

"Thanks from Jin Lan, +1!"

Suddenly, Jin Lan turned his head and roared: "It's not dark yet, you guys withdraw first, I'll do it for a while!"

The bandits looked at each other, and they suddenly had a little motivation after a tired day, but Yang Xiaojin came at this time: "Don't work, wash my hands for me, and get ready for class." ”
