Chapter 226: Migrant Workers' Camp
Originally, when the five soldiers heard the squad leader's words, their hearts were very relaxed, they had been bullying the workers in the camp for a day or two, and they knew very well that these workers did not dare to resist themselves at all, so they didn't care much, and Li Ming instantly solved the three people.
The remaining two people reacted at this time, and hurriedly cheered up and put on a posture, and the squad leader who had been standing behind also ran over, pointing at Li Ming and saying a lot of words, and the three of them put on an offensive formation together.
Li Ming didn't dare to be careless, these people are different from ordinary people, they are soldiers who have survived after being tempered by blood and fire, everyone has a trick to save their lives, just as the three of them were approaching Li Ming step by step, and Li Ming was also preparing to attack with all his strength, suddenly, there was a rapid shout behind him.
Li Ming looked back and found that it was Wu Liansheng who ran up with someone, which made Li Ming breathe a sigh of relief, and the three soldiers also stopped when they heard Wu Liansheng's words.
Wu Liansheng ran to the middle of the two sides with three people, first said sorry to Li Ming, and then scolded the three squad leaders in Burmese.
The squad leader listened to Wu Liansheng's words, and the expression on his face was first angry, and then he lowered his head unwillingly, but his eyes were full of fierceness.
After respectfully saluting Wu Liansheng, the three squad leaders went down the mountain with a knocked out subordinate on their backs, but before the squad leader left, he took a deep look at Li Ming.
After seeing everyone leave, Wu Liansheng said to Li Ming apologetically: "I'm really sorry Mr. Li, I don't know if you are injured." ”
Li Ming smiled and said, "I'm fine." ”
Wu Liansheng said: "Then I'm relieved, Mr. Li, the soldiers on the mountain don't know you yet, if there is nothing wrong, please don't walk around." ”
Li Ming nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back." ”
Wu Liansheng said: "Thank you for your cooperation. If Mr. Li wants to take a tour of the surroundings, I'll arrange for someone to show you around tomorrow. ”
After speaking, Wu Liansheng went up the mountain, and Li Ming guessed that maybe Wu Liansheng had something to do.
I saw a seriously injured unconscious worker over there, and a little girl crying on top of the worker. Li Ming sighed and walked to the two of them, Li Ming said to the little girl, "Little sister, what's wrong." ”
What happened just now, the little girl also saw it, but when Wu Liansheng passed by, the little girl was scared so she lowered her head, and when she heard Li Ming's question, the little girl raised her head. Little Face cried and said, "They knocked my dad unconscious." ”
Li Ming let out a long sigh and took out a jade porcelain bottle from his arms, which contained a life-saving pill made of hundred-year-old ginseng mixed with various Chinese herbs, which was refined by Li Ming when he was idle and bored, in order to cover up the ancient tree clone.
Now seeing the little girl crying so pitifully, Li Ming said to the little girl: "Put this pill in your father's mouth, and your father will wake up, and his body will get better soon." ”
The little girl hurriedly thanked Li Ming. The pill was put in his father's mouth, while waiting for the worker to wake up. Li Ming asked the little girl why his father was beaten.
Through the little girl's words, Li Ming knew the reason, it turned out that the workers of this mine were all villagers from nearby villages, when the soldiers came to recruit workers. He said that he would pay a high salary, but now that five or six months have passed, he has not received a penny, and the little girl's father is the leader elected by everyone, so he came to inquire about the salary. After an argument with a soldier, he was beaten by the other party.
Just as the two were chatting, the little girl's father woke up and heard the little girl say that Li Ming had saved him, and the workers hurriedly thanked Li Ming.
Li Ming shook his head and said, "It's just a gesture, you're fine." ”
The girl's father said solemnly to Li Ming: "Mr. Li, it is a small matter for you, but it is a life-saving grace for me, Mr. Li, why don't you go and sit at home and let Mino make you a cup of tea." ”
Although Li Ming wanted to refuse, but the other party said so, if he refused again, he would look down on the other party a little, nodded and said, "Okay, then bother." ”
As the two walked into the simple tent area, there was already a group of young people waiting anxiously at the door, and when they saw the girl's father coming back, everyone hurriedly surrounded the girl's father, and a young man asked, "Uncle, what do those soldiers say?" ”
The girl's father sighed, shook his head and said, "They only said that they would give money together at the end of the year, and they won't give it now." ”
The young man said angrily: "How can this be true, how did the money that was promised to be given every three months become a year." ”
The other person said to the girl's father with some dissatisfaction: "Uncle, didn't you convey our meaning clearly?" ”
Hearing this, the girl's father suddenly showed an angry expression, pointed to the wounds on his body and said: "Look at the wounds on my body, if I hadn't forced them to pay us wages, would I have been beaten like this, if it weren't for the treatment of this gentleman beside me, I would have died on the mountain, if you don't believe me, then you go and ask yourself." ”
Hearing the words of the girl's father, the young man who spoke just now suddenly fell silent, and when he saw the scars on the girl's father's body, he said with a sneer: "Uncle, that's what I said, don't mind, you still have to take the lead in this matter, how can we have the qualifications to talk to them." ”
Everyone also showed fearful expressions.
When Li Ming saw the appearance of this group of people, he sighed in his heart, no wonder the soldiers dared to beat them at will, they were really a group of cowards.
The group of soldiers made it clear that they didn't think about paying them, and at the end of the year, what this group of people were waiting for was not money but bullets for submachine guns.
Looking at the area of this tent area, there are at least one or two thousand people living there, and there are only one or two hundred soldiers here who are dead, if these people are a little bloody, and collectively resist and force the other party to give money, as long as the plan is right, hundreds of people may die, but they can kill all the soldiers, but unfortunately, they don't have the courage at all.
After the girl's father came to his tent, the little girl named Mino diligently ran to the stove and took down the boiling water that had been boiled a long time ago, and after brewing a bowl of inferior tea for Li Ming, the little girl held the tea bowl in both hands and put it in front of Li Ming and said, "Big brother, please drink tea." ”
Seeing this little girl, Li Ming had the feeling of seeing Xu Qing, and after taking the tea bowl, Li Ming said with a smile: "Thank you, Xiao Minuo." (To be continued......)
