Chapter 93: Fifty-one Teenagers
ran back, then hid behind his parents, and grabbed his adult's clothes.
Wei Shuyu saw all this in his eyes, and the gap between people was clearly displayed at this moment.
"Folks, I came to our village this time with a purpose, and I need the help of the folks!"
Wei Shuyu looked around and found that the villagers were looking at him with anticipation, as if it would be something worth looking forward to for them if he could help him.
"Shaoguo Gong, you said, as long as you don't dislike us crop men, what can we do, just say it."
"That's it, the mountain of swords and the sea of fire, we will never frown!"
"Your family is the benefactor of our village, and now the benefactor has something, and it is our duty to do it."
"Is there anything we can do, you speak!"
"Shao Guogong, look, no one in our village is a bad seed, and they are all waiting for you!" Muramasa said proudly.
Muramasa's words drew the support of everyone, and then everyone fell silent.
Some of the boys also stuck out their heads at this time and looked at Wei Shuyu with curiosity.
"I opened some shops in Chang'an, and I need some help!"
Wei Shuyu's words made everyone even more silent.
"Big brother, what these villagers say is good, you see, as soon as you talk about specific things, they are dumb." Liulang whispered to Wei Shuyu.
"Look at it, it's not what you think!"
"Shao Guogong, your family has been a great favor to our village, and now the kindness has benefited this village, and the villagers thank Shao Guogong for his great kindness."
After Muramasa spoke, he bowed deeply to Wei Shuyu, and they all heard the meaning of Wei Shuyu's words, which was to recruit people to Chang'an City.
And with Deng Guogong's Mansion as a person, it is obviously not for them to work in vain, and the remuneration is quite high, much higher than the market wage.
Such a great kindness, I can't help but be grateful, you know, Chang'an is not short of workers. And Wei Shuyu was able to run to the village in person and leave this opportunity to the villagers, and the tears of this group of people were about to flow out.
If you think about other villages, the rent for the fields is as high as 50% or even as high as 70%. The Deng Guogong Mansion only collected two and a half percent of the rent, and also subsidized the families who had no labor.
In contrast, children may not feel much. But once you are old, the old people who have experienced the Sui Dynasty really feel the difference.
The old people told the young people to be grateful, and every family set up a longevity ranking at home, and a stick of incense in the morning and evening.
If anyone dared to speak ill of Deng Guogong's family, it would inevitably attract a siege from the whole village, and they would not allow their benefactor to be harmed in the slightest.
They don't know who the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is, and they don't know what the world is like now, they only know that the Duke of Deng Guo Mansion is their benefactor.
Wei Shuyu saw the expressions of the villagers, and his heart was also a little touched. Farmers were always the loveliest people in those days.
If you give them food and clothing, they will be content, and even from the bottom of their hearts, they will be grateful to you.
At this moment, Wei Shuyu felt that he should do something in his life to repay the trust and support of the working people.
He felt that since he had crossed over and had the ability, he had to make these lovely people live better!
After adjusting his mood, Wei Shuyu said.
"If you follow me, you may have to pay with your life, but what I want to tell you is that what I am doing is to make more people have enough to eat and eat well!"
After Wei Shuyu finished speaking, the villagers burst into warm applause! Yes, in a village in Datang, people also know how to express their feelings with applause.
"Next, please ask teenagers over ten years old and under eighteen years old to come out of the ranks!"
After Wei Shuyu finished speaking, more than one hundred and fifty teenagers walked out, and the other people who did not agree to the conditions automatically took two steps back and gave up the space.
Since Li Tang, the people have been recuperating and recuperating, and the population has grown relatively rapidly. In villages of seven or eight hundred people, nearly two hundred people are under the age of ten. There were about 200 men between the ages of 20 and 40, and the rest were women and the elderly.
Looking at the teenagers in front of him, Wei Shuyu wanted to take them all away, but if they were all taken away, the target would be too big, and I was afraid that it would arouse the suspicion of the imperial court at that time.
"Brother Xue, you and Liulang selected fifty people from these more than 100 teenagers to come out as future warriors to defend the country and defend the country!"
Xue Rengui and Liulang came out in response, only to see them walk to the middle of the teenagers, afraid of their shoulders, touching their arms, and soon chose fifty people to come out, all of whom were relatively young.
"Fifty of you, follow me. I will give you money, according to the standard of the great worker! ”
Wei Shuyu's words attracted the brightness of the villagers, while the hundred or so teenagers who were not selected showed disappointment with tears in their eyes.
"You didn't choose, I'll come back next time!" After Wei Shuyu finished speaking, the teenagers seemed to be alive again.
In the end, Wei Shuyu took fifty-one young men to embark on the journey back to Chang'an.
"You run and follow me! If you can't keep up, go back to your hometown, and I'll give him a sum of money. ”
After Wei Shuyu finished speaking, he said goodbye to the village and the villagers, and rode away on an electric bicycle first.
"Da Lang, if you are not angry and are driven out by Shaoguo Gong, you don't want to go back to the village, I can't afford to lose this person!"
Among the villagers, a man shouted at the top of his voice.
If there is one, there will be a second, and there will be a third!
Then countless voices came, all with only one meaning, that is, don't embarrass Lao Tzu.
An hour later, Wei Shuyu stopped, and Xue Rengui and Liulang also stood beside Wei Shuyu with the reins.
"Shuyu, this group of children is too young, and they don't eat well, this body is a little unbearable!"
Xue Rengui looked at the staggering distance and said to the teenagers who followed over.
"I know, but I want to see how perseverance they have!"
"Alas!"
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the first person to appear in front of Wei Shuyu's eyes was actually Chen Ergou.
The second was a girl, the third, the fourth, and half an hour later, fifty-one teenagers all came to Wei Shuyu's side.
Wei Shuyu nodded secretly, in the case of poor nutrition, many teenagers had obviously overdrawn their physical strength, but they all caught up, and none of them were left behind.
The potential of human beings is truly limitless!
"You're all good! Rest for half an hour before you go. ”
When the teenagers heard that they could rest, they fell to the ground one after another, and lay down on the spot without any image, tired, too tired.
"Rokuro, get the dry food and water off my car!" Seeing that everyone had rested for half an hour, Wei Shuyu said to Liulang.
"Yes, big brother!"
Liulang and Xue Rengui divided the food into fifty portions and gave each one one.
As soon as the teenagers saw Wei Shuyu leaving, they got up from the ground and followed without saying a word.
