403 Fat people have to take the lead
The fat man saw that the people he sent out came out of the mountain, faster than the speed of entering the mountain, but there was no formation anymore. Seventy or eighty people www.biquge.info the number of people is not less, and the fat man's eyes blinked vigorously to hide his mood. There were more than a dozen people who had been carried out of the mountains by their companions, and at a cursory glance, less than half of them had walked in a normal posture, and their clothes were in tatters, and there were so many eye-catching blood stains, which was already unsightly miserable.
Liu Fu and the countless birds and beasts behind them showed their figures, and they just roared defiantly, Ruyi did not give an order, and they did not dare to chase after the people who escaped from the mountain. Ruyi has been very merciful to the fat man, and it turns out that the fat man's kind of powder may be insufficient in dose, and it has lost its magical effect on the snake, at least Ruyi did not find that the snake flinched. Ruyi also stopped the poisonous snake's attack on Liu Fu and them, although Liu Fu and their people were bitten by snakes, it can be seen from the fact that they all came out of the mountains that even if they were poisoned, there was still hope for treatment.
The fat man didn't know that Ruyi was secretly controlling the overall situation, and when he saw the birds and beasts behind Liu Fu and them, he hurriedly greeted them, and all the thirty or forty people who stayed by the fat man's side rushed over to respond.
"Sister Ruyi, isn't this too ruthless, many people are injured, and they are bleeding when they run so far away!"
The ingots were silent, and it was Bimang's voice that came into the minds of Ruyi and Yuanbao. Ruyi jumped on top of the ingot's head, and waved his two wings in different movements.
"You can't blame me, they have to go into the mountains, they all have such sharp knives, you don't see, several birds have been cut to pieces by them, just snakes can't scare them away!" "Fatty, the beasts in the mountains are really angry with you this time, do you still want to go up the mountain? When your men are too unlucky, you have injured so many people with a word, and now that the beasts have sealed the mountain, I see if you have any other way to enter the mountain!"
The fat man couldn't recognize what kind of bird this could only talk, so he had always been afraid of Ruyi, but Ruyi repeatedly stimulated him, which was tantamount to sprinkling salt on his wounds, and he couldn't bear it anymore, and opened the slap that was bigger than his body, and wanted to slap Ruyi on the table like a fly, and slap it flat to relieve his hatred.
I already felt that Feng Ruyi didn't run away, a pair of small wings didn't move, and I couldn't see her two little claws moving or jumping, but the fat man's slap still rubbed Ruyi's body and slammed it on the table. The teacup flipped over, the teapot knocked over, and it rolled and fell to the ground. Ruyi slowly vibrated his wings and left the table.
"Don't listen to persuasion, you dead fat man is not fun at all, if you make such a big fire again, be careful to attract the beasts in the mountains to bite you to death!"
The fat man's lips trembled, and he couldn't make a full sound.
"Yuanbao, there are a lot of people over there, are they all here to chop wood?"
Ruyi flew up and found that many people came from the direction of Jingtai Town, and from a distance, there were always two or three hundred people, and there were probably more people than roughly. The vast majority of those people are men, and they are mainly young and middle-aged. This time, Yuanbao saw that many people were familiar, and they were all from Jingtai Town. The woodcutters who never dealt with each other were also in the crowd, along with iron knives. Iron Dao found the ingot, and walked a few steps out of the crowd to the ingot.
"Yuanbao, you arrived early, I still think you don't like these copper coins!"
"It's too little, that fat man said that he only gave twenty small copper coins a day, I don't want to earn these few dollars, Sister Ruyi wants to see the excitement, we just stand here for a while, what are you going to do?"
"Bastard, the person who introduced us said to give fifteen copper coins a day, we came here after he promised to take care of the meal, I have to ask later, you haven't been to the market these days, the introduction of people all over Jingtai Town looking for short-term workers, Jingtai Town is basically here, they feel that the people are still not enough, and they also found some women with some strength, but the woman only gave twelve copper coins a day, those people said that the town guard sold this mountain to the Jixiang Chamber of Commerce, and the Jixiang Firm was looking for someone to work, it is said that it is to cut down all the trees on this mountain, we calculated, there are trees all over the mountain, how can it be done for a few months, although the money is not much, even if you have a stable income, everyone will follow with you, and it's always better than selling firewood for a day, isn't it?"
"It turns out that the fat man hired so many people to cut down all the trees on the mountain, so many people came, and they had to work for a few months, how many trees would have to be cut down?" Yuan Bao looked around, and most of the people who came from Jingtai Town were carrying tools for cutting trees instead of wood, as well as ropes for transporting the trees out of the mountain.
"Iron knife, they cut down all the trees on the mountain, what will we do with the firewood in the future?
"Yuanbao, you really eat the food of a soldier, the heart of an official, as long as we get the money in our hands, we can still manage tomorrow's affairs today, and besides, they only need thick wood, no branches, and it will be more convenient to collect firewood in the future!"
"No, there are trees to have firewood, and if there are no trees on the mountain, the grass below the mountain will die little by little, and the spring water flowing down from the mountain will slowly dry up, and this place will become a lifeless wasteland like the other side of the mountain!"
Yuan Bao thought of Li Zibao, Xu Youbao, and Tong Shenzhai where they had been, as well as the barren wasteland where they could not see a single figure for a few days without walking as far as the eye could see. With just one ground movement, the bare mountains around Tong Shenzhai collapsed so much. Yuanbao, Ruyi, and Bimang don't like the wasteland, so they will spend a lot of effort to make the source of the Earth Yuan Force into the form of a spring under the twelve earth branch gates, so that the Earth Yuan Power will not be blocked, and the Earth Yuan Power can be slowly released to restore some vitality to that wasteland.
The mountains around Jingtai Town are beautiful and full of vibrant greenery, and if the trees here are cut off, there is a high risk of turning them into wasteland. The trees in the mountains are the houses used by birds and beasts to shelter from the wind and rain, not only providing protection for birds and beasts, but also providing food for many birds and beasts to sustain their livelihoods. If all the houses in Jingtai Town are torn down and all the crops are destroyed, won't the people of Jingtai Town be able to continue to survive here?
Not only did Yuan Bao think about it, but Ruyi also began to worry and couldn't help but ask. Ruyi likes mountains, but she doesn't like barren mountains with no grass and trees, no water, and even fewer birds and beasts walking in the mountains.
Hundreds of people from Jingtai Town have already joined the fat man's people, and more and more people are surrounding the fat man, and the problem has arisen. Someone saw that there were many wounded people lying on the carriage that the fat man brought was originally used to carry wood, which could not be concealed, not only on the carriage, but also many people were also covered with scars. So many people were gossiping and inquiring and guessing, and it didn't take long for these people in Jingtai Town to explode.
The people of Jingtai Town still have some understanding of the nearby mountains, the beasts in the mountains do not often go down the mountain, and the people under the mountains always have the courage to enter the mountains to make some money, and as a result, many people in Jingtai Town have suffered losses from the beasts in the mountains, and there are not a few who have lost their lives. Nowadays, there are very few people who will go into the mountains with a fluke mentality, and they can only think about things that cost money and don't want their lives, but they can't try it themselves. At present, none of these people in Jingtai Town want to lie down in the carriage and be wounded. Sharp-eyed people also saw that there were beasts not far from them, compared to the money in their hands, they are now more concerned about their own safety, the most important thing is that the money they can get is really not much, a load of firewood can be sold for twenty copper coins for ingots, they work hard for a day is not as good as a load of firewood for ingots, so the fat man only gives the money to contribute, there is no need to take such a big risk.
Speech turned into arguments, the voices became higher and higher, and the momentum of the people in Jingtai Town became more and more vigorous. The fat man's voice was already a little hoarse, but it still couldn't appease the resentment in the hearts of the people of Jingtai Town, so their wages had not yet started because the ingots had risen to twenty copper coins.
There must be brave men under the heavy reward, money still has a status in people's hearts, and some people are tempted to get a lot of money in a few months. There were also some people who saw the unbearable situation of the fat man's men and retreated. Except for Liu Fu, who still does not know whether he is alive or dead, the wounds of the others should not be worried about their lives after treatment. But Liu Fu's living example, no matter how good the fat man assures, the more than 100 people he brought with him are going to Qingshan with great momentum, and aren't they still stranded outside the mountain?
The fat man really has such a calculation in his heart, it is not early, and if he delays this morning, he will have to pass it, and if he doesn't make it today, the wages of these four or five hundred people are not a decimal. Liu Fu has fallen down, and he has not woken up, and it is not certain whether he can come back to life. The fat man decided to take the lead this time and personally led people into the mountain. Liu Fu took seventy or eighty people into the mountain without any achievements, that is because compared to the beasts in the mountain, the number is a little small, and there are almost a hundred people under him who can move, plus the three hundred people in Jingtai Town, there are almost five hundred. Such a big momentum is comparable to an army, not to mention a few beasts in the mountains, even the mountains in front can be walked through.
The fat man who couldn't stand the confidence was even coaxed and deceived, and he didn't want to see the money that hadn't arrived in hand go down the drain, so those who didn't want to go up the mountain from Jingtai Town decided to follow behind to join in the fun.
