After Ling Feng and Ye Yun left with their guards and a large number of gold coins and tributes, only Xiao Ke, Qin Bing, and Lin Hao were left in the Wheel of Steel. Watermark Ad Test Watermark Ad Test

Lin Hao led a thousand janissaries brought from the imperial family, as well as a thousand auxiliary soldiers, and with the assistance of Liu Feifei, they guarded Storm Town.

Xiao Ke and Qin Bing led two thousand elites to guard the canyon mine, but in fact, the distance between the two places was not very far. Rivalry with each other. If you march in a hurry, you can arrive in less than two hours, and you can rescue each other.

Xiao Ke knew that Guo Kaiyang would definitely not be able to accept the loss of the canyon mine, and he would definitely try to regain it. Therefore, Xiao Ke and Qin Bing have been extremely vigilant these days, and the canyon mine is in a state of high alert.

In the past few days, the mine has also officially resumed operation.

For miners who are mining. It's just a change of owner, how they used to work, and how they still work. It's the same for the workers in the foundry, the essence hasn't changed.

In a place like the Lawless Land, it is normal for the bosses of the poor to change and change.

Moreover, Xiao Ke offered these miners more favorable conditions and higher salaries.

Originally, these miners and foundry workers were almost like slaves under the oppression and exploitation of "guns and roses", but after Xiao Ke arrived, their status has been elevated from "slaves" to workers, and their treatment in all aspects has been comprehensively improved.

Therefore, the tens of thousands of people living in the canyon mine, instead of rioting because the owner changed from Guo Kaiyang to Xiao Ke, became more enthusiastic and active in work.

What made Xiao Ke most uneasy was the more than 1,000 captives of the Double Eagle Business Alliance, and the 2,000 captives of guns and roses.

These guys are different from ordinary miners and workers, they are all from private armed forces, the worst are at the level of soldiers, and if they are powerful, there are generals or even generals, if these guys pick up a shovel and rebel, it will be difficult to do it.

As a result, captives of level 6 and above were given preferential treatment and placed under house arrest without any need to participate in the work.

Prisoners of level 5 and below. Whether it is the Double Eagle Business Alliance, or the guns and roses, all of them are mixed into a 10-person team, and each team is set up with a principal and deputy captain, and the captain is responsible for managing the team members. If the team members riot and rebel, then the captain and the vice-captain will be shot, and all the other team members will be punished.

In addition, if the team and the team find any rebellion against each other. You can also expose each other, and there will be a reward for the truth.

Qin Bing's set of miners' joint sitting method is very practical, after all, the captives are not from the same camp, and there is a joint sitting method that forces them to supervise each other, which can basically ensure that they cannot unite to rebel.

Xiao Ke and Qin Bing were drinking tea in an office such as the mine headquarters at this time, and Xiao Ke personally boiled water to make tea in a small red clay stove. The water is mountain spring water, and the tea is the big red robe that Ye Yun brought from Zhongzhou Qilin City before.

Qin Bing looked at Xiao Ke's skillful cooking of tea, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

Xiao Ke caught Qin Bing's smile, glanced at Qin Bing, and asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?" “

Qin Bing teased: "I remember when I first met you, you were still a vulgar ordinary refugee, but I didn't expect that now you know how to make tea, this is to integrate into the aristocratic society!" “

Xiao Ke smiled bitterly when he heard this: "My third brother has to pull me to teach me all kinds of aristocratic etiquette on weekdays, and this tea ceremony is also one of the must-learns." I didn't have to worry about thinking skills, so I learned from him when I had time. As for joining the nobility, it's a bit too much. The gap between the commoners and the aristocracy was very serious, and the nobles would not accept people from commoner backgrounds to join them. “

Qin Bing said lightly: "That's not necessarily, you are now a protégé of the Son of Heaven, if you can take the opportunity to make a career in the land of lawlessness." At that time, your status will naturally rise, and at that time, after you get married, you will grow your family and then be promoted to the noble clan, then you will be regarded as an upstart. Of course, this is only the poor family, if you want to become a high-grade family, or even a family valve, it is often not a generation that can do it, and it takes several generations or even more than ten generations of hard work to be able to achieve such an achievement. “

Xiao Ke smiled and said: "Self-cultivation Qi family rules the country and the world, I am still in the self-cultivation stage, just pay attention to self-improvement, and don't need to think too much about the rest of the things." “

Qin Bing blinked: "It turns out that Lord Xiao has ambitions in the world. “

Xiao Ke said lightly: "I came from the bottom of society, I have seen too many tragedies, and too many tragedies have happened around me, all of which are caused by this apocalyptic era, all caused by natural disasters and zombies." Therefore, my biggest dream is to be able to become the governor of the empire, lead millions of bravery, fight into the realm of death, wipe out the zombies, recover the five major cities in the occupied area, and end the apocalyptic era. Let humanity become the master of the planet again. “

Qin Bing thought that Xiao Ke was determined to be the head of the cabinet and the uncrowned emperor who coerced the Son of Heaven to dominate the world, but she didn't expect Xiao Ke's ambition. It turned out to be to end this apocalyptic era and recast the civilization and glory of mankind.

She was also born in poverty, and when she heard Xiao Ke's pure and grand goal, she couldn't help but be in awe. Zhengse said: "The ambition of the adult is like a great thing, I followed the adult to the Wheel of Steel before, and occasionally I wonder what is the purpose of my coming here?" Now I finally know that adults are worth our death! “

Xiao Ke just said what he thought, but he didn't expect Qin Bing's reaction to be so solemn, he was slightly stunned, and then smiled and said, "Qin Bing, what's wrong with you, why did you suddenly become so serious?" “

Qin Bing said seriously: "My lord, your goal is the dream of thousands of people, and once your goal is achieved, it will be the bloom of the dreams of thousands of people." Therefore, I implore you not to forget today's aspirations! “

Xiao Ke's eyes widened when he heard this, and he muttered to himself: "One person's persistence, the dream of thousands of people?" “

In a trance, Xiao Ke grew up from childhood to adulthood. The human tragedies he saw in the slums and everywhere flashed in front of his eyes as quickly as a movie, and finally, the scene was frozen at the moment when his sister starved to death.

A touch of pain flashed in the depths of Xiao Ke's eyes, but his eyes became resolute, and he said in a deep voice: "Okay, I will never forget my original intention today, even if I pay any price in the future, I will work hard for this avenue, and I will not stop until I die." “

Qin Bing looked at Xiao Ke and smiled with relief, she was usually cold, but when she laughed, her expression was extremely vivid, and there was an indescribable charm and seduction.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of rapid footsteps outside, and then I saw Captain Duan Canglong, walking in quickly, snapping a military salute, and then said loudly: "Report, according to the report of the sentry, a team broke into our territory, and the other party waved the flag of guns and roses, and the flag also had a big Guo character written on it. If I didn't guess wrong, it should be Guo Kaiyang who personally led his subordinates to come over to us. “

Xiao Ke and Qin Bing glanced at each other, they were a little surprised, guns and roses have recently lost their troops and suffered heavy losses, it stands to reason that there are not too many troops, and now Guo Kaiyang is openly leading troops to come, could it be that Guo Kaiyang gathered Wei Qing and Yin Changfeng's soldiers and horses, and poured out, even ignoring the defense of Blackstone Town and Dark Town?

Xiao Ke: "Let's go, let's go out and have a look." “
