Chapter 169: Bullying
The workers on the side didn't pay much attention when they saw that the newcomer was a white little white face. However, after an hour, everyone was a little dumbfounded, and in this hour, this little white face did not rest for a moment, but filled more than a hundred dye vats.
Letting a martial arts disciple do the work is simply shooting flies with a Xuanyuan bow. However, Long Yuan had his own plans.
Long Yuan came to a large well, and saw several workers taking water from the well, and the bucket under the reel rack was the size of a dye vat. He said to a middle-aged man: "This big brother, can I help you work? Don't worry, I don't want anything, I will help you do it for free, and the salary will still be yours." I was a child with a disease that had to sweat once a day or I would be in danger of dying. But you see I haven't sweated until now, I can't find a job to do, big brother, can you do it well, help my brother. ”
After listening to Long Yuan's words, the middle-aged man blinked his eyes, thinking that there is still such a strange disease in the world? Seeing the sincerity of Long Yuan's face, he said: "Little brother, I thought you were a little white face, and I looked down on you a little, but I didn't expect you to have such a disease." You can do my work, as much as you can, I don't covet your share. But it's heavier than the work you just carried water. ”
"Big brother, thank you. But the work that the little brother does here is yours, and if you are willing to let me help you work, it is equivalent to saving the little brother, I will do the work, and you will receive the salary. Long Yuan said in a firm tone.
"Okay, in that case, I won't force you, little brother, if you are tired, you have to rest. Seeing that Long Yuan insisted, the middle-aged man did not object again.
Long Yuan nodded, and his hands turned around. After a while, someone whispered in the crowd.
"This little white face has a lot of strength. ”
"Don't you know, this little brother has a rare strange disease, and he can't live without working and sweating. Don't call people a little white face in the future. ”
"Yes, it's pitiful, looking at him as if he was seventeen or eighteen years old, how much work he had done to train his strength. ”
"Tut, look at this little brother's eyebrows, he should be a seedling of reading, but it's a pity that he has this disease. ”
......
Half a day later, more than 100 people on the construction site had completed their hard work for a day, all by Long Yuan alone. A group of workers had no work to do, and one by one they squatted or sat in a circle.
Long Yuan wiped the sweat stains on his forehead and said to everyone: "Today is the first day for the younger brother to work, the younger brother was born with a strange disease, and if he doesn't do gravity work, he will get sick." But please rest assured, no matter how much work the younger brother does, he will only receive one salary, and he will never be greedy for every penny of the eldest brother. If the eldest brother can't trust the younger brother, the younger brother can swear that he is definitely not working here to get paid. ”
"Little brother, you have done all our work and let us get paid. Don't say anything else, I, Wang San, are here to talk, and whoever is here in the future will not be able to get along with your brother, that is, I will not be able to get along with my Wang San. ”
"Yes!"
"No one can bully you in the future. ”
For a while, Long Yuan became a conspicuous place in the construction site, because the work had been completed, and everyone could not leave until the hour, so several people gathered around to talk about the mountains and seas.
"Little brother, how did you get such a strange disease. Wang San asked Long Yuan.
"I don't know, I heard from my family that I was born with a copy of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" in my arms, and I have had such a disease since I was born. Long Yuan said.
"The Book of Mountains and Seas, that's a treasure, hey, hey, do you think this little brother will be the reincarnation of a fierce beast, how strong is it?" The man smashed the strong man on the side with his elbow.
"Don't talk nonsense, this little brother has such a good heart, how can it be a fierce beast, maybe it is a giant spirit god who came down from the sky. ”
......
Suddenly, a circle was surrounding the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and the strange forces were chaotic and so on.
"Speaking of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, I heard that there used to be a book called "The Book of Mountains and Seas". That's a book that only a god can understand. ”
Long Yuan's ears immediately corsed.
"Hey, this big brother, what did you just say about the "Treasure Book of Mountains and Seas?" Long Yuan hurriedly asked.
"Let me tell you, my grandfather's grandfather once heard people talk about it, saying that this treasure book is a book written by a god, from the opening of the heavens by the great god of Pangu to the destruction of the Three Realms, which is very powerful. ”
"Big brother, has your grandfather's grandfather heard of this treasure book?"
"Who knows, my grandfather said that even the gods are looking for this book, how do we mortals know where he is. That's a book that the gods read. ”
Long Yuan couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart, but he was not discouraged, he had heard people talk about the Treasure Book of Mountains and Seas on the first day he came here, which was a good start.
In this way, Long Yuan helped people to work while listening to others talk, but Long Yuan's way of building a good relationship was terminated after a few days, and the workers in the nearby color mixing department saw that many people in the dye vat department had wages for not working, so they sued the matter.
Long Yuan was not surprised by such a result, after experiencing the things in the Lost Mountains, he understood that there are always people who can't see the good of others. In order to continue to inquire about the news, Long Yuan stayed in this workshop.
Before I knew it, three months had passed.
"Long Yuan. ”
"Brother Binh Duong. The one who stopped Long Yuan was Pingyang, the middle-aged man with whom Long Yuan talked to him and helped him work three months ago. Pingyang is nearly forty, with an ordinary appearance, and there are already a few lines on his forehead due to long-term work.
"The "Treasure Book of Mountains and Seas" you asked me to inquire about has a clue. ”
"Oh?" Long Yuan's eyes lit up. After living in Jiecaifang for so long, he discovered the fact that the more inconspicuous a group of ordinary people, the more information they have to talk about is often beyond imagination.
When Long Yuan was walking in the mountains, he also asked many village chiefs, Li Zheng, and sacrifices, but their knowledge was limited after all. It is still not comparable to the "my grandfather's grandfather" and "where I have heard about it before" of these workers. While these hearsay stories may not always be true, there are always clues to be gleaned.
"I've heard other people retell it, and it's hearsay. It is said that many years ago, there was a man who got lost in the mountains with a group of people and spent the night in a Taoist temple in the mountains. As a result, that night, the people of the demon clan entered the Taoist temple and slaughtered all the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple, and they were not found because they were sleeping in the firewood room. The people of the demon clan were talking in the courtyard of the Taoist temple, saying that the war between gods and demons was not over yet, and if they wanted the demon world to open, they had to go to Queshan to find the "Treasure Book of Mountains and Seas". ”
Long Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard this, it should be Queshan.
"When the demons were about to leave, one of the people in that group was scared. As a result, this soak of urine made the people of the demon clan discover the taste of living people again. The people of the demon clan rushed into the firewood room, and all the others were killed except for the one who survived. And according to that person, the people of the demon clan didn't find him, and he didn't know what the reason was, but he had a Sanskrit translation of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" in his arms at that time. ”
"Is it really related to the Classic of Mountains and Seas?" Long Yuan muttered.
"I don't know, but that Taoist temple is located near Zhaoyao Mountain, the head of Queshan Mountain. ”
"Hmm. Long Yuan nodded, it was time for him to leave after learning these clues.
"That's all I heard. ”
Long Yuan nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Pingyang." ”
"You're welcome, my lumbar spine is a little bad these days, if you don't help me finish the work, where will I get paid. By the way, I heard the foreman say that tomorrow there will be a general meeting of workers, and the workers in our dyeing vat department can each get more money. In this way, in four months I will be able to finish my long work here and go back to my family. Pingyang said expectantly. Although there is still a short time in April, it does not prevent him from returning to his heart.
Long Yuan saw Pingyang's longing on his face, and his heart was also full of joy, these days here, Pingyang also took great care of Long Yuan, he saw that Long Yuan had no place to live when he first came, so he invited Long Yuan to live with him.
Seeing that Long Yuan looked immature, and he was stunned when he started to do things, Pingyang often told him about his experience. Pingyang was born in an ordinary world, working hard for half a life, and he has seen a lot of human affection and warmth and coldness. Long Yuan was also very taught, and the master let him enter the world to practice, didn't he just want him to experience the ups and downs of the world. Pingyang has an honest personality and treats Long Yuan sincerely, and the relationship between the two is better than others.
Day, workers' meeting.
The workers of the dye vat department stood in formation, and the housekeeper stood in front of the formation.
"During this time, the workers of the dye vat department worked hard, united and diligent. So that the income of our Jiecai Fang has increased a lot, so Mrs. decided to add the same salary to each worker, and if she can maintain this momentum in the future, she will also give everyone another processing money. The butler said in front.
Everyone was stunned for a long time before they burst out and the cry lasted for a long time. Always, that's a lot of money.
"It seems that Niu Er can be transferred to the dye vat. "The housekeeper saw that the wages of the dyeing vat department were already the highest in the labor department of Jiecaifang, and he had an idea in his heart, and the fertilizer and water would not flow into the fields of outsiders.
The day after the workers' meeting, a group of people came to the dye vat, led by a strong man, with a rather strong figure and a pair of tiger eyes full of ruthlessness.
"I heard that he is the nephew of the cow butler. Brought a group of people to our dye vat department. ”
"This guy has a bad reputation, relying on his uncle being a housekeeper, and often bullies us workers. ”
Quite a few workers whispered.
Niu Er led a few people to stand in front of the construction site, swept his eyes around, and when his gaze fell on Long Yuan, he glanced at the person beside him. The man walked up to Long Yuan and said to Long Yuan: "I heard that you have a lot of strength, and the work that Second Brother Niu wants to do in the future will be handed over to you." ”
Long Yuan didn't look up, as if the sound had not reached his ears.
"Did you hear that!" he said, reaching out and grabbing Long Yuan's collar. Long Yuan raised his hand to separate the outstretched hand, directly knocking the man to the ground.
"You turtle son......" the man scolded and got up. Long Yuan was about to step forward to teach this unreasonable guy a lesson when he was pulled by Pingyang beside him, Pingyang shook his head slightly at him and signaled not to do anything.
