Chapter 259: Misery Under the Dirty Stink
readx;? For herdsmen, the loss of cattle and sheep is equivalent to the loss of freedom and life. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info If you want to continue to live, you can only work for others except as horse thieves and bandits—the treatment of part-time workers in this era is very different from that of modern migrant workers, and the most inferior people are humiliated by the same level of humiliation as slaves, and sometimes even worse than slaves.
This is the ruthlessness of iron, and it is also a rule for living on the grassland, and it has nothing to do with good or evil.
There were four such people in the Lausanne tribe, huddled in the stinking bag in front of them, and they were alive and breathing.
Naturally, the four of them were not treated well, and this shabby little bag was still a handout they had worked hard for a year, but they still couldn't hide from the wind and rain. So, the four of them came up with a solution: to concentrate the old leather on the top, and connect the thick circle of cow, sheep and horse manure below, so that although the stinky ground can barely resist the cold storm and rain.
Of course, ridicule is inevitable, but who told them that they have no property of their own? However, in the storm last night, seven or eight bags were overturned, but this rope, which seemed to have no rope to fix the bags, and the bags that would obviously be overturned when blown were miraculously standing, and immediately attracted the attention of the chief butler.
The butler covered his nose and examined it carefully, and finally attributed the credit for the standing of the bag to the thick circle of dung, but he couldn't say anything specific. So, it was reported to Lausanne. It happened that Lausanne remembered that Zhang Qingshan told him that he would repair the city wall...... Naturally, it is impossible for the nobles to let their living place stink, so there is the current trip to Zhang Qingshan - since feces can play a role in consolidation, then, experts can naturally use other methods to replace feces.
After listening to Tawang's narration, Zhang Qingshan first walked into the old and tattered bag.
Although it stinks here, Zhang Qingshan inevitably feels a little unhappy in his heart, but on the surface, he has to pretend not to mind, so he doesn't cover his mouth and nose. However, when he lifted the curtain, he finally understood why these four people could endure being surrounded by the smell of feces, because the stench inside was no worse than the outside, especially the smell of a pot of stew mixed with sweat acid, rancid odor, feces, etc., which rushed to his face, almost making him vomit on the spot.
He paused, pretending to look back, but in fact he took a deep breath slowly, and then held his breath and walked into the bag.
The first impression he had in the bag was one word - black!
Whatever is discarded in any corner is all black, and the filth is unbearable. Zhang Qingshan's mind couldn't help but fantasize about swarms of lice charging at the people sleeping here.
I couldn't stand it anymore.
After a few quick glances, I found that the structure in this room was not much different from other bags, except that the skeleton of the bag was a little less, so I hurriedly walked out.
There was no anger, no pity, no worries, and he didn't even say anything, because at this time, Zhang Qingshan had one thought in his mind: he had to hurry away and enjoy the fresh air. Therefore, after walking more than ten meters away in one breath, he exhaled a long breath and inhaled deeply...... It's just that I don't know if it's because the picture just now is too amazing, so that even when he breathes fresh air, he faintly feels that the complex smell is still lingering at the tip of his nose.
To be honest, Zhang Qingshan didn't want people to see his disgust for this environment, but it was so stinky that he didn't have time to think about it at all - it's better than vomiting on the spot to express his disgust, right?
Finally holding back his vomiting, he took a deep breath, turned around, and slowly walked towards Kura again...... At this moment, he felt that in the face of such a stench, the courage he needed to walk over was comparable to fighting with the enemy with bayonets on the battlefield, and it had to be a one-to-five situation.
"Big brother, why don't you take a rest first, and then ...... when you get better" Zhang Qingshan's situation was seen by everyone, and Zhou Baoyu had to persuade him tactfully.
Zhang Qingshan's eyes widened and said, "Our Red Army soldiers are not even afraid of death, are we still afraid of these?"
After speaking, he picked up a thumb-thick branch about one meter long, walked to the pile of cow dung and squatted down in front of everyone. First he looked at it carefully, then he shaved the cow dung with a branch, and finally, poked it vigorously...... In the eyes of others, Zhang Qingshan is too brave, or he has too strong ability to tolerate this kind of disgusting thing, and he actually looks relaxed. But in Zhang Qingshan's opinion, after the previous kind of edification, he felt that these feces were not very smelly. To put it bluntly, he would rather crouch in front of the feces to check the cause carefully than go into this Tibetan cell to smell it.
Immediately asked Tawang to be the interpreter, and after carefully asking the four people a few questions, Zhang Qingshan confirmed Lausanne's conjecture: it was indeed these dry dung that played a fixed role. The longest of these dry dungs was collected half a year ago, and although the outer layer was soaked in rainwater and turned into a paste, the further inside it went, the harder it became, the absolute foundation.
Then, it's time to show your skills...... Originally, Zhang Qingshan was still a little worried: although Lausanne's requirements were very low, he had to go to the Tao and couldn't fool people. But the problem is that if you want to teach these three apprentices how to repair the house, they will have to wait a few months at the earliest, that is, they will have to wait a few months before they can continue the long march. In that case, how can I catch up with the big army? But it's not good to be unjust to my friends, so don't look at Zhang Qingshan's promise, but in his heart he is always thinking about the fastest way to teach. Now as soon as he saw this low and could not be lower, he smiled: it is too simple to only teach them ingredients and paste the wall, at most two days, to ensure that all three apprentices are proficient.
So, Zhang Qingshan asked a little impatiently: "Tawang, is there glutinous rice and Guanyin soil in the tribe?"
"Some glutinous rice is stored, but Guanyin soil ...... What kind of dirt is that?"
This, Zhang Qingshan really couldn't explain it clearly for a while. After thinking about it, he asked, "When the Central Red Army built a house for you, what did it use to stick the stones?"
"They mainly use glutinous rice and fragrant soil, as well as ......"
"Yes, that's what I want. Where did you dig the incense soil?"
"It's right behind the mountain, and it's a lot. ”
"Take me ......" Zhang Qingshan was a little excited and was about to act immediately, but he remembered the four guys who exuded a strong smell all over his body. Originally, I wanted to tell Tawang directly that I would pay for these four poor people to buy a bag and some simple living utensils, but I felt that being so direct would cause a bad reaction nine times out of ten, after all, this is the tribe of Lausanne. Moreover, after generations of baptism, they have become accustomed to treating this kind of migrant workers who have no property as inappropriate people. If he helped so directly, he would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the people here, after all, no one likes to break the rules. Even if Lausanne acquiesces or even supports it for the sake of his friend's face for a while, as long as Lausanne thinks about this in his heart, then, after he leaves, Lausanne will definitely turn around and clean up these four poor guys. But if he didn't help them, Zhang Qingshan was uncomfortable, what should he do, so that he could not only take care of the face of the people in the tribe, but also help these four poor people?
Zhang Qingshan subconsciously looked back at the four guys standing by the door, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
Not to mention that not everyone can be a big butler, at least, this eyesight, way of speaking and courage are indispensable.
Dawang saw Zhang Qingshan's reaction in his eyes, and guessed a rough idea as soon as his brain turned - when the Central Red Army came, the eyes of these wanderers were exactly the same as Zhang Qingshan's, and Zhang Qingshan was also a Red Army, so it was naturally easy to deduce.
"Lord Zhang, the villain has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not?"
"You say. ”
"Originally, there were eleven homeless people living here, but when the Central Red Army left, seven of them were taken away, and the four of them were unwilling to leave. ”
What do you mean by that? Zhang Qingshan didn't answer, didn't speak, turned his head and looked at him directly.
For Zhang Qingshan's silent persecution, Dawang couldn't hide if he wanted to, so he had to say more bluntly: "The villain knows that Lord Zhang is kind-hearted." It's just that these four homeless people have already become dead people who eat and wait to die, and they don't deserve your sympathy......"
Even if Zhang Qingshan saw this kind of poor people they called homeless people for the first time, he could see their hard work and hardships from the smell on their bodies and the calloused hands that were faintly revealed, but even so, in the eyes of the tribesmen, these people were still only worthy of the words 'eating and waiting for death'. And this is the cold embodiment of the law of the steppe - who left them without their own property?
After Tawang said this, he saw Zhang Qingshan's brows furrowed even deeper. After he lowered his head and glanced at both sides, he moved closer to Zhang Qingshan a little closer, and whispered, "It's not worth your opening of the golden mouth." ”
Zhang Qingshan's heart was shocked, and he understood the meaning of Tawang's words: Euphemistically reminded Zhang Qingshan not to use the Red Army's method of fighting local tyrants and dividing the land here, so as not to hurt each other's harmony. It is more and more certain that Tawang's previous performance is conveying the meaning of Lausanne to himself, otherwise, with his previous performance, how dare he say these words to himself at this time.
Zhang Qingshan looked at Dawang with some unaccustomed feelings, and found that although Dawang was still standing with a bow, he looked up and saw that his face was full of smiles, but there was no smile in his eyes, this is a **naked warning, although this is likely to be Dawang's temporary initiative and self-determination, but it is certain that before Dawang came, Lausanne must have explained to him. Of course, as the henchman of the master's henchmen, as the chief butler, he must be at the forefront, and for this, even if it is a little excessive, it is necessary.
This made Zhang Qingshan's heart more and more uncomfortable.
Zhang Qingshan knew that the other party was like this, and it would be irrational if he had to do it now, so it would be better to go back and discuss it with Lao Zhou. Besides, I can't afford to leave Lausanne and go with a butler here.
So, he nodded and asked with a smile, "You're right, let's go and do big things first." ”
The smile on Tawang's face was even bigger, even the smile in his eyes was there, and his waist was bent lower. Zhang Qingshan even clearly felt that the faint persecution momentum on Tawang's body dissipated instantly. It seems that this guy was really asserting himself just now, otherwise, there would never be such a momentum of persecution.
He could turn around, and Tawang straightened up, pointed at the three apprentices and shouted: "You three damn slaves, your eyes are blind~! I didn't see the three adults going to see the incense soil, why don't you hurry up and lead the horses? By the way, find some people with tools and prepare to dig the incense soil." ”
After the order, he bowed very humbly and made a gesture of invitation to Zhang Qingshan and the others: "Three adults, please here." ”
