Tongzhou is the poorest state in Xishan Road, and Chen County is the poorest county in Tongzhou, there are many high mountains and deep valleys, not suitable for growing grain, and even rivers are not very much, in drought years, it is difficult to find water sources to fight drought, so the people of Chen County are in a famine year, either fall into the grass for Kou to rob the house, or are in other places.

In the past two years, taxes have increased, and Chen County's already small amount of farming land has been barren, and a large number of people have been lost, Zhao Guangqing, the governor of Tongzhou, knows that the best way to keep the people from chaos is to let them eat, as long as they eat, the source of the people's turmoil will subside, after all, most people will not have to fight for their lives with a rice bowl in their hands.

In the past two years, Tongzhou has suffered a disaster, coupled with a sharp increase in taxes, it is not easy to let the people eat, he thought about it, but a few years ago he came up with a way to solve the problem of eating as much as possible, that is, the quarrying project.

Chen County has many mountains, although there are no rich mineral deposits, but the stone itself is a resource, so Zhao Guangqing on the excerpt of the edict, imploring the imperial court to allow the mining of stone mines, in this way, to give many people the work of eating.

What the imperial court lacked was silver, and Zhao Guangqing also made it clear in the fold that stone mining can not only solve the problem of eating for some people, but also increase the income of the imperial court.

When the imperial court heard that there was money in the project, it naturally would not have much objection, so this suggestion began to be adopted a few years ago, and the imperial court even sent people to Tongzhou to set up a stone mining bureau to take full care of quarrying matters, and many people in Chen County were able to eat a mouthful of food.

Stone does not worry about sales, build mansions, build wall stacks, pave roads and build bridges, none of them can be separated from the stone, there are dozens of quarries in Chen County, large and small, after the sale of the quarried stones, the finances are all taken care of by the Stone Mining Department, and the local government can not interfere, but after all, in Tongzhou ground, without the support of the Zhizhou Yamen, the Stone Mining Department naturally can't play in this place, artificial materials, etc., are all managed by the local Yamen, financial rights and mining rights are separated, and the Stone Mining Department and the local government are dependent on each other.

Quarrying workers, belonging to the government employment, although said to have wages, but the government deducted the east and west, the workers finally got a pitiful wage, but the government knows that quarrying is a hard work, so it will not be slack on food, the quarryman's ration can also make everyone full, so although they can't get any wages, but because they can fill their stomachs, quarrying has become a dream job for many people, and even many people in order to become quarrymen, through the relationship to intercede.

The town valley stone field is one of the many stone fields in Chen County, located in the south of Chen County, under the town mountain, the town mountain is not a big mountain, the shape is like a horseshoe, the recess between the valley forms a valley, here the heavy rocks are stacked, the peaks are verdant, the mountains are not high but undulating, there are many trees on the mountain, but the valley is a shed, that is the place where the quarrymen live on weekdays.

Not long after the Machiya stone quarry was mined, only a small piece was mined at the foot of the mountain, and the quarried stone was piled up under the hillside, and the stacks were neat, and the wood on the mountain was also made into wooden beams.

After Lin Daier and her entourage entered Tongzhou, they were extremely low-key along the way, making seven turns and eight turns in Tongzhou, going around in circles, and finally arrived at the Machiya Stone Field.

Lin Dai'er was a little suspicious of Qiu Ruxue, but on the way, she occasionally quietly tried it, and found that Qiu Ruxue was also a happy and righteous person, and there was nothing suspicious, so she gradually put her mind at ease.

After all, this Qiu Ruxue is also a person who was almost cut off his head, and he has a grudge against the government, so far, everyone's emotions are close, and Lu Tianyou and Qiu Ruxue are both making knives, and the two of them are on the way, but they have to talk about knife skills, and the more they talk, the more speculative they are, and they really pity each other.

When she was twenty miles away from the Machiya Stone Field, Lin Daier had the two carriages sink to the bottom of a lake nearby, and then walked to the Machiya Stone Field, and when she arrived at the Town Valley Stone Field, it was almost dusk.

At the entrance of the valley, a long wooden fence was built, and there was a wooden watchtower, under which was the entrance to the valley shack, at the entrance, several soldiers in armor stood with swords, and when they saw those officers and soldiers from a distance, they frowned and tightened the handle of their swords.

Lin Dai'er said: "Brother Qiu, that's my own person." ”

"Your own family?" Qiu Ruxue was a little surprised, when did the soldiers of the government become his own people?

The soldiers guarding the door had also seen Lin Dai'er and the others coming, they all became alert, pulled out their big knives, and one of them had sharp eyes and said in a low voice: "It seems to be Sister Dai'er!" ”

"Sister Daile?" The person next to him twitched carefully, and then showed joy: "Brother Lu is also back." ”

Lin Dai'er saw those people coming up, and the depressed mood along the way finally improved a lot, Lu Tianyou had already seen the situation, and said to Qiu Ruxue with a smile: "Brother Qiu, that's our own brother's pretend, not an officer and soldier." ”

Hatred is like blood, and it is amazing.

Welcoming into the shed, the people in the shed got the news and came out one after another, Qiu Ruxue saw that the crowd was old and young, and there were women, it was even more strange, Lu Tianyou saw Qiu Ruxue's doubts, and explained: "These are our own family members." ”

Qiu Ruxue nodded slightly, but he couldn't figure it out in his heart, this was obviously a stone field, how could these people hide here without being detected by the government.

Although the Machiya Stone Field is located in a remote area, and there are few homes within a radius of ten miles, from the scene, it is obviously a quarry established by the government, so Lin Dai'er and the government still have a relationship.

A five or six-year-old boy had already run to Lin Dai'er's side and asked in a milky voice, "Auntie, has the second grandfather come back?" He promised to make me a slingshot to shoot birds. ”

Lin Dai'er looked gloomy, squatted down and hugged the little boy, and said softly: "Good, the second grandfather has something to do, and he can't come back recently, but he will be back soon, what the second grandfather said, he must be counted, and he will definitely make you a slingshot." ”

The little boy nodded excitedly and said, "Okay, I'll wait for the second grandfather to come back." ”

Lin Dai'er was sad, got up, saw someone, and asked, "Are everyone all back?" ”

"There are still a few people who haven't returned." The man stepped forward and whispered, "It should be late." ”

Lin Dai'er nodded, but she was still a little worried in her heart, after breaking through, the troops were divided into several ways and broken into pieces, and he saw in the crowd that some people had returned, but there were still a few people who failed to arrive.

People were staring at the hatred with some strange eyes, their eyes showing doubt, but there was no hostility.

This is the person brought back by Lin Daier and Lu Tianyou, and everyone naturally trusts them very much.

Lu Tianyou had already explained to everyone: "This is my sworn brother, his own person, Feng Zi, you first arrange a place for Brother Qiu to live." ”

Someone agreed, and it was arranged immediately.

Qiu Ruxue followed everyone to the shed, the valley, and temporarily built some houses, where there were about one hundred and fifty or sixty people, Qiu Ruxue saw this scene, and was even more curious about the origin of Lin Daier and others.

There are many quarries in Chen County, and there are thousands of quarrymen in the large quarries, and there are usually two or three hundred people in the small quarries, but there are less than two hundred people here, which is not very strange.

After settling down the hatred like blood, Lu Tianyou took a bath, and then came to Lin Daier's house, after entering the door, he found that Lin Daier had changed into clothes, her hair was not dry, and she had obviously just taken a bath, and when she got close to the past, she could clearly smell the faint fragrance emanating from Lin Daier's body.

Lin Dai'er looked at Lu Tianyou, saw Lu Tianyou staring at herself, her cheeks were slightly red, and said, "Brother Tianyou, you ...... What do you see? ”

Lu Tianyou sat down on the chair next to him and said, "Dai'er, you ...... Hello beautiful ......! ”

Lin Dai'er felt even more hot on her face, lowered her head, gritted her teeth, and didn't dare to speak.

Lu Tianyou saw Lin Daier's delicate appearance, walked over lightly, couldn't help it, and gently put one hand on Lin Daier's shoulder, Lin Dai'er's delicate body trembled, and seemed to be a little uncomfortable, but he didn't dodge, just said softly: "Brother Tianyou, God...... It's getting late, you ...... You're still wounded, so go and rest. ”

Lu Tianyou sighed lightly: "Dai'er, when I was in prison, I thought I would never see you again...... You know, those lackeys tortured me to confess, and I wanted to die several times, but when I think of you, I don't care about anything. I can live to this day because I have been thinking about you in my heart, thinking that I will see you again one day. ”

Lin Dai'er's face was hot, although she was resolute in the situation, she still seemed very shy in terms of children's affection, although she and Lu Tianyou were childhood sweethearts, but she had never heard Lu Tianyou so straightforward, her heart beat hard, and she said softly: "Brother Tianyou, you ......!" But he didn't know what to say.

Lu Tianyou said softly: "Dai'er, when we take revenge, let's find a quiet place to live well, I promised my father-in-law that I will take good care of you, do you say okay?" ”

Night shadow lonely lamp, dim light shines on Lin Daier's pretty face, white skin crimson, she is heroic and resolute on weekdays, with the pride of a female husband, but at this moment she has returned to the shyness of her little daughter's family.

Lu Tianyou saw the beauty under the lamp, delicate and incomprehensible, although Lin Daier has been weathered, but the skin is still delicate and fair, and has a sassy and charming style, her swan-like neck is exposed, white dazzling, the hair after bathing is naturally pulled up with a wooden hairpin, charming with a bit of lazy style, it is really a beautiful and delicious beautiful woman, like a ripe and attractive honey. Peach, looking at Lin Daier's shy appearance, Lu Tianyou's Adam's apple couldn't help but move, and he couldn't help but stretch out a finger to pick up Lin Dai'er's round and greasy chin, looking at Lin Dai'er's beautiful eyes slightly closed, he couldn't help but slowly lean over, wanting to kiss the ruddy and fragrant cherry lips.

Before she got closer, Lin Dai'er opened her eyes suddenly, pushed Lu Tianyou away, Lu Tianyou took two steps back, a little stunned, Lin Dai'er had already gotten up and taken two steps back, distanced herself from Lu Tianyou, twisted her hands together, and said softly: "Brother Tianyou, let's ...... We can't yet. You know I made an oath until the day of vengeance, Dale...... Everything for Dale is yours, but ...... But before that, you and I will be courteous ......! ”

Lu Tianyou frowned slightly, but soon stretched it out, and said with a gentle smile: "Dai'er, it's me who is not good, I ...... I'm confused. You...... Don't be angry! ”

Lin Dai'er smiled and shook her head.

Lu Tianyou was a little embarrassed, coughed, and asked, "Yes, how did you get to this place?" Be...... The arrangement of the Daomen? ”

Lin Dai'er nodded and said, "The encirclement and suppression of the officers and soldiers is the news from Hou Muxin, who got the instructions of the Daomen and brought us here ......!" ”

Lu Tianyou said solemnly: "Yes, I was looking for him." Where is he now? I want him to take us to the Heavenly Father. ”
