19. Wofeng Village

Li Xuan is not incomprehensible about the fact that the old woman has hardly opened for a month.

Because according to the display on the map, this inn at the gate of Wofeng Village is obviously mainly open to the people of Longyin Village, after all, at the end of each month, only the people from Longyin Village stop by them. As for the law enforcement team of the Shuangya Academy, it was already thankful to be here once a year.

The so-called inch of land is expensive, this may be the main reason why Longyin Village is poorer than here, and according to this reasoning, presumably the Huxi Village behind should be more prosperous. Compared with the price in all aspects, it will be more expensive, and his own money is obviously not enough, which is also one of the reasons why Li Xuan plans to stay here.

According to the past practice, this year's Longyin Village will definitely bring Yu Xia and others to come with ore, and they naturally need to rest here with a large amount of ore. It seems that he can confirm Liu Yin's attitude, and he can also thank Xue Meng and them in person, and say goodbye to them.

"Well, sleep here tonight." The little black in the old woman's mouth led Li Xuan into the underground wing.

Compared with the neatness of the corridor, the wing room below looks a little messy, Li Xuan shook his head slightly, presumably, this is also the shrewdness of a businessman, there is no time to take care of the cleaning tools that can be seen everywhere, Li Xuan, who looked in the direction of the little black finger, stood in place dumbfounded.

"Right here? Two people sleeping together? Li Xuan frowned lightly, the width of the door where the two of them stood side by side was the width of the room, and the length of lying down was just the length of the room.

"Hmm!" Xiao Hei nodded.

In the past, if he slept alone, the space was naturally wrong, but now the two of them are naturally a little crowded.

Li Xuan sighed helplessly when he saw this, after all, he didn't need to sleep in the open air, and he didn't need money, it was better than the place where he slept in the ruins. Under the leadership of Xiao Hei, the two of them simply washed up and lay down by themselves.

Li Xuan glanced over and looked at the back of the other party's pitch-black and shiny head, and there were some large scars between his neck. Li Xuan was full of curiosity. When Granny Ghost mentioned this kind of people, she seemed to say that they didn't seem to belong to the jurisdiction of Shuangya Academy.

"Blackie, what's your original name?" If you sleep peacefully like this, it is not Li Xuan's character.

"Blackie." Xiao Hei didn't look back.

"And where are you from?" Li Xuan rolled his eyes, this name was really casual enough, and then he continued to ask, wondering in his heart, since Xiao Hei is not from the neighborhood, then where is he from? Why is it here?

"I don't know." Xiao Hei turned his face sideways and replied in a low voice. "From the time I was sensible, I was in the hands of various traffickers, who were originally sold to work as coolies in the mines, and then ran out when I helped pull goods again. Those people chased me out, and it was Granny Liu who bought me. ”

"Human traffickers?" Li Xuan frowned, although Xiao Hei's tone was very stiff and slow, Li Xuan still patiently listened to what the other party said. After tidying up slightly, the doubts in my heart were also solved, it turned out that this little black was abducted and trafficked, and the one who escaped seemed to be taken in by the old woman. The granny Liu in Xiao Hei's mouth must have been the old woman just now. It's just that I didn't expect that the other party had such a kind heart under the appearance of a profiteer.

As for the scar on the little black neck, it seems to be related to a painful past, so I still don't ask.

"By the way, Xiao Hei, has anyone come to stay at the hotel these days?" Li Xuan was deeply sympathetic to Xiao Hei's experience, but he couldn't do anything about it, he was just a hairy boy who had just come out of society and didn't know anything about the outside world. Not to mention fighting for a foreigner.

"Yes." Xiao Hei thought for a moment, then nodded, but his body did not turn around, and he didn't seem to like dealing with strangers very much.

"Just the other day, there were a lot of people that day, the rooms were full, a group of people wearing the same clothes, plus a man and a woman and an old woman." Because there was almost no business for a month, Xiao Hei remembered the events of that day very clearly.

Did you hear what they said? Or what to talk about? Li Xuan straightened up, a little excited, the law enforcement team of Shuangya Academy had really rested here! The reason why I asked the other party to answer was mainly for this.

"Not really! They paid for the opening of the house, didn't let us go upstairs to disturb, and didn't even ask for tea! Feeling the sudden approach from behind, Xiao Hei subconsciously hid in the corner.

Li Xuan shook his head, he didn't expect to ask anything valuable, and then he rolled his eyes when he heard the words, presumably Granny Liu's happy big teeth were about to laugh off, and the tea money was saved a lot. Then he seemed to notice Xiao Hei's evasive action, and sighed lightly, it was a poor child again.

In order not to make Xiao Hei feel uncomfortable again, Li Xuan stopped talking, and the two fell asleep by themselves.

Compared with the desertion of Longyin Village, Wofeng Village is much more lively. Shops of all sizes are wide open in the direction of the entrance of the village, and a dazzling array of handmade products flutter in the wind.

Granny Liu did not deceive herself, and after she took out the map that proved her identity, the gatekeeper at the entrance of the village also let her go. Feeling the clamor around him, Li Xuan's mood also improved inexplicably, but although he was immersed in the excitement at the moment, he always faintly felt a deep sense of incongruity.

"Hello big brother, how to get to the mine kiln in your village!" Holding a passer-by who seemed to be easier to speak, Li Xuan asked. Li Xuan didn't want to care too much about the customs of other people's villages, and after sightseeing, he planned to do the right thing, and now he just wanted to save as much money as possible.

The old man turned his head and seemed to want to mock him, but when he saw the person clearly, he quickly withdrew the banter in his eyes and pointed straight into the distance: "You are a young man from another village, just follow this road to the end." ”

Although the other party told him his destination, Li Xuan still noticed the look in his eyes, full of banter and provocation. And the change in attitude later, is it because of the scars on his face?

Li Xuan couldn't laugh or cry, but he didn't expect that his current fierce appearance would save him a lot of trouble.

"Hello, I'm here to work!" Li Xuan looked at the middle-aged woman sitting at the door of the cave blankly, slightly stunned, he always thought that the men who worked in the kiln would be men.

"Distribute according to work, get more for more work, No. 3 cave!" It seems that this kind of migrant workers who have come to the village have long been strange, and the woman gave Li Xuan a waist card and stopped paying attention to him.

Li Xuan took the waist card, looked at the cave numbered No. 3, and walked straight in. The people of this Wofeng Village are really strange.

And when Li Xuan entered the cave, he realized where his sense of incongruity in the village came from.

Most of the people who work in the mines are women, and although they all wear spinning hats, they can be judged by their body shape and hair. And those who sell things at the entrance of the village are actually men!

He finally paid attention to the banter in the eyes of the man when he asked for directions, and there was no man from Wofeng Village in this cave at all.

Wofeng Village really lives up to its name!

Li Xuan's eyes widened and he shook his head, could it be that the tradition of male superiority and female inferiority is followed here?

"You can keep mining along this line, and you will be paid as much as you mine!" As Li Xuan judged, there was indeed someone in the cave who led him, but unexpectedly, it was still a woman, I saw that the person held the waist card on the counting notebook, and handed Li Xuan a forklift and hoe, "Although it is more work and more rewards, but there is also the most basic amount, more money, less than a point!" If you can't do it, don't do it. ”

Li Xuan took the tool and rolled his eyes, this woman in Wofeng Village is much more domineering than a man.

Looking at the busy crowd around him, Li Xuan didn't talk nonsense, he hurried up and got to work, how Wofeng Village had nothing to do with him at all, he was just an ordinary passer-by who couldn't be an ordinary passerby. After earning the required copper plates, he left.

With the rapid dancing of the hammer, the ore under Li Xuan's body appeared one after another at the collection place at the entrance of the cave, ignoring the shocked eyes of the people around him, Li Xuan shook his head slightly, sure enough, mining is such a thing, it still has to be done by men.

"Ouch!"

And just as Li Xuan was hurrying to dig forward desperately, he was attracted by the sad cry next to him.

At this moment, he noticed that at some point, he had caught up with the miner on the line next to him. Seeing the other party curled up in the corner in pain, Li Xuan looked around for a week, and then hurriedly dropped his hoe and walked over.

The kilns were noisy, fast and slow, and there was no one else around who could help.

"How are you?" Li Xuan helped the other party up and took off the brim of the hat on the other party's head. But when he saw the other party's face, his heart tightened, and he scolded secretly: This Wofeng Village is a bit too much for men and women, isn't it, and the little girls are sent to this mine?

The other party looked fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was convulsive all over his body at the moment, and cold sweat broke out on his painful face. He still held the hoe tightly in his hand.

Originally, he didn't care about the customs of other villages, but now, Li Xuan was really angry.

"What's uncomfortable?" Li Xuan spoke urgently, and now that he looks like this, he is afraid that he is ill.

The little girl's face was slightly red, and she opened her mouth slightly, but she couldn't speak, she just slowly raised her hand and was about to push Li Xuan away.

"What time is this, you are still thinking about work, go, go out first!" Li Xuan thought that the other party still wanted to continue working, so he snatched the tools from the other party's hand, picked up the other party and ran towards the hole.

The little girl's whole face was flushed, but she couldn't allow her to refuse, so she could only hold her stomach and couldn't say a word.

"Doctor! There are no doctors! ”

Li Xuan's rough voice echoed in the mine, which immediately attracted the attention of many people, looking at Li Xuan who was rushing over, the person in charge of the mine straightened up, frowned slightly, and reached out to take the girl in Li Xuan's arms with an expressionless face, and looked at Li Xuan deeply.

"Don't worry, I'll help her make up for her twenty copies!" Looking at the other party's strange eyes, Li Xuan frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and take it to the doctor!" ”

After Li Xuan's fuss, a lot of workers gathered at the entrance of the cave, and the manager left quickly with the girl in his arms, and Li Xuan turned around and continued to work. It's just that to Li Xuan's surprise, those workers all looked at him with a different kind of eyes, as if they had done something wrong......

Li Xuan was inexplicably irritable in his heart, and he didn't want to deal with them, but his impression of this Wofeng Village in his heart was even worse......
