Chapter 464 Recruiting People to Open Mines (2)

The chief of the village ran out, it was a widow who was less than fifty years old, and his body was already as rickety as a shrimp and looked very old, after hearing Yamamoto Fifty-six's explanation, he first put an uneasy heart into his stomach, and when he heard that the other party was a lord from the Tang Dynasty, he was so frightened that he almost turned his back on his breath.

The high-ranking Tang lord appeared at the door of his village, the chief was frightened and shocked, usually even the Tang people have never seen a few, and now I heard that a lord is camping outside his village, and he wanted to invite this lord to the village to entertain him, but when he saw the dilapidated houses in the village and the empty rice jar that even the rats moved, he couldn't say anything.

Led by Yamamoto Isoroku, the lieutenant came to the campsite outside the village with a trembling body.

"In front of me is my lord's tent, although the lord has a good temper, but there should be no less rules, I don't need to teach you these etiquette!" Yamamoto Fifty-six was very proud to tell the lieutenant that the lord was the most honored guest of Fujiwara Shuo, the guardian of Hizen Province, and would live in Saga Town for a long time in the future.

Where did the lieutenant dare to ignore the threat of Yamamoto Fifty-six, in fact, there was no need for him to make a threat, the lieutenant usually rarely even saw an official, and now a lord suddenly appeared, or from the Tang Dynasty, this is like seeing a high-ranking American official appear in front of him in later generations, and that kind of heart can only be described as fear.

Because they had to get up very early to go to work these days, and the Japanese who followed the team went to sleep immediately after eating, the snoring could be heard in the silence around him when the captain appeared at the camp.

A huge tent has been erected in a clearing, and the chief feels a sense of powerlessness in his whole body when he looks at it from a distance, the tent is too big and beautiful, and he has never seen it in a dream before, and the whole person is a little afraid to approach.

Sato Naga was pushed forward by Yamamoto Fifty-six, if it weren't for Yamamoto Fifty-six behind him, this was that Sato Naga already wanted to run.

There was a bonfire outside the tent, on which a fat sheep was roasting with a wanton aroma, and several women in gorgeous light gauze were setting up the table, and the eyes of the chief suddenly lit up, because he found that these women who seemed to be fairies had the hair ornaments of widows on their heads, and there was not much difference between them and country women, but they were a little restrained.

"The lord is actually serving a widow around him? I guess I bought it! ”

The chief muttered in his heart, and his mind also moved, and he immediately guessed something, and his face showed joy.

"You wait here, I'll go back to the lord?"

Yamamoto Fifty-six is a little disgusted with dealing with these mountain and wild villagers, there is a strange smell on his body, he shouldn't have taken a bath for several years, if he didn't have something to do, he would have kicked this person away a long time ago.

Seeing that Yamamoto Fifty-six had entered the tent, and seeing that there was no one around to spy on him, Sato Naga moved his feet and moved closer to the Japanese women. Just as she was about to speak, a widow turned around and saw the lieutenant behind her, and her face immediately showed disgust, and she immediately retreated behind her, and scolded in her mouth: "Don't come here, what are you going to do?" ”

When the chief was close to the widow, he smelled a faint aroma on the other party's body, and the smell made him a little obsessed, and when he heard the widow's scolding, he woke up suddenly, this kind of high disparity, he couldn't help but be scared.

But the chief still spoke: "Aren't you widows? I heard that this is a lord from the Tang Dynasty, are you the maidservant girl bought by the lord? ”

The widow's face sank, obviously a little unhappy, and said: "It's true that my master is the lord of the Tang Dynasty, but he won't spend money to buy any maids, we are all because we can't survive, and we were given to the lord by the family, and the lord took pity on us ......." ”

The chief was taken aback, and immediately understood, aren't the people in his village just as happy and unable to live? There are already people who are ready to sell their sons and daughters to live, in fact, it is not bad to give them to the lord, look at the clothes worn by these widows, they are not at all worn by people like themselves.

The chief knew that the widow he saw was just a special case, when passing through a small village, he met a robber robbing, the man in the village was about to kill a little food, so he offered a few beautiful widows in the village to the robber in the hope of saving his life, but the robber still robbed the grain after accepting the widow, and then happened to be met by Zhen Qian, more than 20 robbers with kitchen knives were simply Wang Tianxing's enemies, after saving this village, Zhen Qian was ready to leave and return the widows captured by the robbers to the village, but the people in the village didn't want to live or die, because they couldn't support these widows, so they gave them to Zhen Qian, and Zhen Qian had to leave a little food to buy these widows.

Now the number of these widows has reached more than 20 people, and Zhen Qian did not deliberately buy them, if a large amount of grain is thrown out, I am afraid that the number of widows can increase more than ten times.

Li Chang looked around tremblingly, smelling the smell of barbecue floating in the air, swallowing saliva in his mouth, and staring at the golden fat sheep with his eyes.

The tent curtain was suddenly raised, and a man in light clothes walked out, the black hair on the back of his head was casually combed into a bunch and scattered behind him, looking extremely elegant.

The chief noticed the difference between this man at a glance, and the people around him formed a semicircle and held the stars and the moon in the middle, and he knew the identity of the other party at a glance. And the expression of the widow who went in to report was even more respectful, pointing at the lieutenant chief with his finger, and beckoning the lieutenant chief to come over, and said to the lieutenant chief: "This is the Tang Lord, don't you hurry up and salute?" ”

The lieutenant chief felt a huge pressure, although the man didn't say anything, and there was a hint of a peaceful smile on his face, but the lieutenant knew that the other party's strength was terrifying, and it was not something that a person like himself could touch at all, so he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times.

The man who came out of the tent was really Zhen Qian, and the elder chief knelt down and kowtowed when he was scolded by Yamamoto Fifty-six, and he didn't say anything to stop it, but he just glanced at the chief on the ground, and he had already reached the scope of Saga Town, and some deterrence was also necessary, because the more he came to Saga Town, the more robbers there were, and even the larger villages had some self-protection power, so it can be seen that there are indeed poor mountains and bad water here to make trouble.

"Get up! I have something to ask you? ”

Zhen Qian never thought of playing a good old man in front of these widows, and the combination of grace and power is the king, otherwise he would not be able to stand here at all.
