Chapter 31: Collecting Money
And when Xiao Yu told Xiao Guoyuan in detail that all this happened, Xiao Guoyuan's colleagues around him were also listening carefully.
From time to time, there was an exclamation, this atmosphere reached a climax when Li Yushu sent out a fireball, it was really incredible, just one day, the world had changed so much.
Among them, Li Lili was the most touched, she knew more than everyone else, and he had seen the heavy scale armor and sharp claws of the pangolin, and the breath like an ancient beast gave him a great visual impact even if he was lying in a pool of blood.
And what about the man who killed the pangolin? Just now I also knew that this pangolin was killed by these two young men with their own hands, and Li Yushu has already shown the identity of the Flame Awakener, so what is Xiao Yu's ability?
"Gollum"
It turned out that at this time, the meat skewers in Li Yushu's hands re-emitted a seductive aroma because of the heating, which caused the group of people who had not eaten for nearly 24 hours to become watery and their stomachs growled.
Xiao Yu was not stingy, although the pangolin was killed by him and belonged to him, but he was going home in a while, and he had no way to take away such a large piece of meat, so he directly pulled out the lancet, handed it to a middle-aged uncle who was closest to him, and said
"If you are also hungry, you can cut some meat yourself, roast it yourself, and everyone can eat it as you like, you are welcome."
Xiao Yu is not afraid that these people will pose any threat to him if they get the lancet, even if these ordinary people have knives in their hands, they are not the opponents of the two of them, and these people who have just woken up have not realized the cruelty of the new world, and their minds cannot be so complicated.
Wang Shuhai took Xiao Yu's lancet, couldn't wait to cut off a large piece of meat, cut another branch and skewered it, handed the knife in his hand to the person waiting on the side, and sat down by the fire to roast the meat.
If it weren't for the habit of eating cooked food that he had developed since he was a child, he would have wanted to swallow this piece of meat raw, he was so hungry, especially when Li Yushu's meat skewers were fragrant, the hunger was even more unbearable.
Xiao Yu looked at everyone who was already sitting by the fire, and roasted the large or small pieces of meat in his hands, and took the lancet handed over by the last young man,
"This knife is so good, no wonder it can kill such a big pangolin."
Xiao Yu smiled and didn't say anything, could it be that he talked to him about how powerful the pangolin was when he was alive? How thick are the scales? How sharp are the minions? There's no need for that.
Xiao Yu was thinking about what to do next, whether to take these people back to the village or leave them alone.
To be honest, Xiao Yu is not very willing to bring these people, after all, there are many people, there are many things, all kinds of things are not annoying enough, and so many people acting together are easy to cause animal attacks, he doesn't want endless battles, what he wants most now is to return to the village as quickly as possible.
But you can't ignore these people, after all, they are all villagers, they don't look up when they look down, and they look familiar even if they can't call their names, and if they are thrown down like this, they will definitely be killed and injured.
Xiao Yu called Li Yushu to discuss for a while, and there was no good way, suddenly Xiao Yu had an idea, spend money, if these people spend money, let them follow, and they can also use money to improve some strength and better protect them.
In fact, Xiao Yu was ready to collect a life-saving fee before they woke up, but he couldn't say anything, he was still too young and not thick-skinned enough.
This time, if you want to protect them to return to the village, you are also in danger, and it is not natural for them to pay some protection money, and you have to pay taxes if you accept the protection of the state.
When he told Li Yushu about this idea, he didn't have any opinion at all, and the two began to discuss how much it was appropriate to charge, and Xiao Yu calculated it.
All his skill points to 20 need 3731 taels of silver, that is, 37310 soft sister coins, not counting the three of them and 22 people, they need to give themselves 1700 soft sister coins each, considering that there may be people who will not accept it, at least 2000 per person, you must know that this is a lot.
These workers are paid about 3,000 a month, and they may not be able to accept overcharging.
But what about Li Yushu? You can't take it all yourself, and don't give it to Li Yushu, that's too lonely.
Hey, let's owe it first, and when I have the money in the future, I'll pay him back, so that's the only way to do it.
talked to Li Yushu, one person received 2000, the money was used by himself first, and when he was repaid later, Li Yushu was not dissatisfied, anyway, he was not in a hurry to use the money now, and he was not afraid that Xiao Yu would not pay back the money, so what was there to be dissatisfied.
Looking at the people who had already started to eat the barbecue, Xiao Yu showed a smile on his face and said to everyone
"Listen to me"
Seeing that everyone stopped their movements, they looked at themselves puzzled, and continued
"You keep eating, just listen to me, you may have heard my words just now, this world is not so safe now, and the two of us will go back to the village with my dad after a while."
As for you, if you want to follow us, you will pay 2,000 yuan per person, and we will be responsible for protecting everyone's safety along the way."
"What, pay the money"
"These two babies are crazy!"
"Lao Xiao, look at what your son said"
Looking at the noisy crowd that heard that he had to give money to follow, Xiao Yu licked his lips and shouted
"Shut up,"
Then he continued to smile harmlessly
"It's your freedom to follow us or not, we don't force it, but what I want to tell you is that we met three monsters along the way.
One is the 'pangolin' you are eating meat, and there is a big snake 8 9 meters long, and the last one is a 'badger' that is even bigger than this pangolin, we can get here safely It is also luck, it is necessary to protect you all the way back to the village, why should I protect you for no reason? ”
"I also told you, even if you pay the money, you have to listen to the command of the two of us, otherwise I won't be responsible for what happens, it's not to scare you, if you go back by yourself, five out of ten people can return to the village safely, and my name will be written upside down in the future."
"Don't blame us for being unkind, according to my opinion, one doesn't care about you, after all, one more person is one more danger, and we may not be able to survive the danger safely, we can't exchange our lives for this meagre 2,000 yuan, we have thought clearly, and we have to follow us to prepare the money."
"Of course, it's still the same sentence, if you don't want to, you can choose at will, whether to go or stay, or go home alone, I will never stop everyone.
Everyone thought carefully about whether to follow us, or go by themselves, or in groups of three or five. ”
After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he ignored everyone's ugly faces, walked to the side, lit a cigarette, and smoked silently.
He also wanted to bring everyone back to the village directly, but without money, he couldn't improve his strength, and without strength, he couldn't apply for everyone's safety. If you want to improve your strength, you have to collect money from everyone.
What do you want Xiao Yu to do, Xiao Yu is also desperate.
