Chapter 106: Killing Chickens and Monkeys
Chu Qing and Xu Xiaoxiao were seated in the tent, Liu Lizheng and Liu Qiao'er were sitting opposite the round table, and Liu Mengzhou and Liu Zhouzi and the others were sitting on both sides.
Everyone's faces were full of gloom, especially Liu Zhouzi, who was responsible for the construction of the refuge camp, and he became the core figure of this meeting.
Everyone looked at him and looked forward to his reply.
He held his hands on his chest and lowered his head, his feet shook from time to time, and he checked in early, isn't it difficult for him?
The previous plan to build was already short of time, and now he had to reduce the time to build, which made him sad.
"How? Zhouzi? Liu Li was smoking a cigarette and looked at Liu Zhouzi uneasily.
Liu Zhouzi was silent, biting his lower lip and tilting his head.
Liu Mengzhou, who was sitting next to him, pushed him when he saw this.
"I can't do this, the time is too tight, it takes time to cut down trees and build them, and besides, those homeless people come to work every day at three poles a day, rest after eating, and leave before dark."
"At the end of the day, nothing was done."
Liu Zhouzi clapped his hands and spat out bitterness, since the start of the refuge camp, he was so angry that he couldn't sleep well after a few days of contact with the displaced people, and he did a lot of the work himself.
But he only had a pair of legs and hands, and he couldn't finish it even if he didn't eat or drink.
After hearing this, everyone present pursed their lips one after another, and no one dared to speak first.
After all, there is money to be paid for a while, and no one wants to do too much, and they are not in a hurry about the refuge camp, after all, there is still a camp to live in.
Xu Xiaoxiao's fingers tapped on the table and reflected, and she began to wonder if her decision-making was too arbitrary, too underestimating people's hearts.
At this time, Zhao Kai entered the camp in a hurry, sat on a round bench, and drank the tea on the table in one go.
"I'm, these outcasts." Zhao Kai's face was flushed, green tendons burst out in his neck, and he punched the table.
After seeing this, everyone present did not feel that they shrunk their necks, and moved their bodies in fear.
"What's wrong?" Xu Xiaoxiao asked first.
Zhao Kai adjusted his breath, gasped and said, "Those homeless people, they are very active in eating, they work slowly and leisurely, and they don't do it after saying a few words, how can it be reasonable, a group of bastards who don't know how to be grateful." ”
Chu Qing's long eyelashes moved, and he put his hand against his lower lip and thought, "This king is here." ”
He originally wanted to come forward to deal with the affairs of the homeless, but Xiao was worried about his safety and proposed to let Zhao Kai come forward, it seems that the situation of the homeless people at this time can only be solved by him.
Otherwise, the construction period will only be postponed again and again.
The others tried to persuade him to stop him, and he got up and left the tent.
Xu Xiaoxiao followed, "Now that the situation is tense, you shouldn't come forward, it's too dangerous." ”
"I know, but as the prince of Xin'an City, it's too unreasonable for me to hide in the city all the time." Chu Qing looked at Xu Xiaoxiao gently and said firmly.
Xu Xiaoxiao knew that she couldn't change Chu Qing's mind, so she asked him to wait for her in the same place, and she ran back to the camp tent and took out the golden silk armor from the space.
She held the golden silk armor in her hand and handed it to Chu Qing, "Put him on." ”
Chu Qing looked at the golden silk armor in Xu Xiaoxiao's hand and was quite surprised, "How can you have a golden silk armor?" ”
"Don't worry about it, find a place to put it on, there's a lot to do." Xu Xiaoxiao handed the golden silk armor to Chu Qing and pushed him into the tent.
After a while, Chu Qing walked out of the tent with an awkward body after dressing.
Wang Duo, who had been waiting for a long time, led the horse and walked curiously, "Lord Wang, what's wrong?" ”
Chu Qing coughed lightly, "It's okay, let's go." ”
Chu Qing rode a horse, and Xu Xiaoxiao and Liu Qiao'er left the villa in a carriage and ran to the suburbs.
The team soon reached the outskirts.
Chu Qing's arrival attracted the attention of the homeless, and everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the convoy curiously.
Lin Qingquan recognized Chu Qing and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Lord Wang." ”
Chu Qingxu helped Lin Qingquan, "No need to be polite." ”
Seeing this, everyone present hurriedly knelt down.
"Greetings, Lord."
Chu Qing looked at everyone with his hands behind his back, "Get up." ”
"I heard that the construction of the refuge camp is progressing very slowly, so I came here to take a look."
Immediately after, he squinted at Zhao Kai.
Zhao Kai hurriedly stepped forward, "Lord Wang." ”
"Lord Zhao, this is what you manage? Not even a shelf on such a small scale? ”
After finishing speaking, Chu Qing walked towards Zhao Kai and landed on his shoulder, and then he turned around and pulled out Wang Duo's matching sword, pointing at Zhao Kai.
Zhao Kai crawled towards Chu Qing in a panic, "Lord forgive me." ”
Chu Qing shook his sword, "If you dare to delay the construction period, you will be killed." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he slashed his sword at the wooden box beside him, and the wooden box was slashed by the sword, and in an instant, it was divided into two halves.
Seeing this, the homeless people present couldn't help but shrink their necks and retreat, bowing their heads in fear, and their bodies trembling to avoid Chu Qing's sight.
Zhao Kai hurriedly got up and waved his hand, "What are you still doing?" Don't do it soon, don't want to live anymore? ”
As soon as the homeless people heard this, they ran away and immediately lifted the stakes.
Xu Xiaoxiao watched the superb performance of the two behind him and admired it.
"I don't know, do you really think that the prince is going to kill Lord Zhao?" Liu Qiao'er hugged Xu Xiaoxiao's arm and trembled.
Xu Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement, "This trick is to make an example of chickens and monkeys, it seems that they have reached an agreement on the road." ”
She was worried about how to solve the affairs of the displaced people on the road, and she didn't expect that Chu Qing had already thought of a countermeasure.
After a few simple words, they got out of the carriage together and came to Chu Qing's side.
Looking at the evacuation camp where I first saw the model, I felt a lot more steady.
"Xiaoxiao, how long do you think it will take?" Chu Qing said as he looked at the refuge camp with his hands behind his back and built the framework.
"It still depends on the speed of the workers' work, Lord Zhao, it is better to work in two shifts, and then recruit people inside and outside the city, maybe they can be rushed out within the expected time outside." Xu Xiaoxiao had an idea, and hurriedly looked at Zhao Kai and said.
Zhao Kai rubbed his aching shoulders and nodded.
Chu Qing walked towards Zhao Kai and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?" ”
"It's okay, if you can't stand this kick, are you still a man?" Zhao Kai smiled and shook his head.
Just do it, Zhao Kai ordered someone to bring pen and ink, and Chu Qing wrote it, and the announcement about recruiting people was quickly written.
Chu Qing ordered someone to take the announcement out of the city and post it.
The officers and soldiers held the public notice and posted it on the bulletin board, and many people looked at it curiously.
When the people saw the content of the announcement, they couldn't help but talk about it. Most people can't believe that the world can still be treated so well.
The discussion continued to fluctuate, and Wang Er, who was passing by, passed by with a toothpick in his mouth, and when he saw the crowd surging, he stepped forward to check.
When he saw the content in the announcement, he guessed that it was Xu Xiaoxiao's masterpiece again, so he planned to show mercy to help Xu Xiaoxiao once.
"Let me tell you, this is true, some time ago, the people in our village went to work in the mountain villa, and they really got the silver."
After saying that, he took out a piece of silver from his belt and dangled it in front of everyone.
When everyone saw this, their eyes turned red and they began to talk to each other again.
The young people gathered in the crowd recognized Wang Er, gritted their teeth and ran out of the city gate in groups.
