People who are tired of survival have long since forgotten what music and dance are.

Even if you have a little talent, the craft has long been unfamiliar.

The demands of the lord of the city made them a hundredfold burden.

Seeing the practice of playing gongs and drums everywhere, even the black-clothed captain with a serious expression of the organizer now arranged a set of sword dances.

This is something that the captain in black has seen elsewhere before, and he remembers it well.

The old eagle smiled, Ke Jingnian didn't care, and the old man Wang was chasing the dragon and phoenix fetus that was running happily.

Bai May picked up Feng Beichen and asked in a whisper: "I want to sing to everyone... You've heard me sing it, what do you think? Can it be accepted by everyone? ”

Feng Beichen felt a chill when he thought of Bai May's singing.

"Don't abuse the ignorant villagers, right?"

Bai May said fiercely: "That's what you think of me? What if I could get a full round of applause? Do you want to call me a master to listen? Oops, it's okay to call me sister too! ”

Feng Beichen turned his head and said disdainfully, "Who can stand your ghost screaming?" ”

Bai May came to lose his temper, and secretly thought that there were any songs that he was good at, and he could remember the words and tunes.

At this time, there was a noise in the distance, which was the first villager quarrel that Bai May had experienced since he came to Nanlinhe.

If you don't want to perform, hurry up and eat melons!

Feng Beichen reminded her.

"What's that look on your face? Want to see the excitement? Don't forget that you're the lord of the city! ”

Bai May changed her face instantly.

"I'm not going to eat melons, if I'm going to smash them, are you satisfied?"

When he arrived at the accident site, Bai May heard some people from the north of the river complaining to the village chief Cheng.

"The city lord said that he would accept us, why don't you let us eat meat!"

"yes, what are you? Why are you holding us back? ”

Village Chief Cheng: "Why can't I control you?" You didn't do anything, and you still want to eat meat? You've got it! ”

Bai May appeared, and with a wave of his little hand, it was quiet.

She cleared her throat and said to everyone, "Uncle Cheng... No, Steward Cheng is the number one steward of our South River City, if you don't want to listen to what he says, you can leave now. ”

When those people saw Bai May, although their attitude changed a little, they did not give up their purpose.

"White City Lord, when you accepted us, you said that you would not treat us badly. Since we are all a family, why don't you give us meat? ”

"We didn't come to Nanlinhe to be excluded."

Bai May listened to the words of these people, and said in a non-stern tone: "I didn't give you basic living materials, but did you let me see my sincerity?" ”

A lot of people don't understand.

"What do you mean by sincerity? Is it possible to take out my heart and show it to you? ”

"The city lord doesn't want us to pay tribute, does he?"

As soon as these words came out, the surroundings gasped.

"Oh my God! I didn't expect it to be like this! ”

"We're in a den of thieves!"

White May: "......"

Have you asked yourself so cheerfully, have you asked me what I mean?

She patted Village Chief Cheng on the shoulder and said, "Whoever is not satisfied, arrange for them to leave, needless to say." ”

When they heard this, they were furious.

"Why let us go?"

"I don't care, I'm going to die here!"

Bai May: "If you want to die here, I'll dig a pit for you to sleep in advance." ”

Her surprising attitude silenced everyone.

Bai May: "Don't blame me for speaking ugly. When you come to me for help, you are begging for food. Whether or not to give you a life-saving meal depends on my will. Conscience? Morality? These things don't work for me. ”

"Only those who offer to exchange their labor for goods are eligible to leave alms."

"I said one last time, there is no laziness and hiding in Nanlinhe, those who want to stay can work hard, and those who don't want to stay can leave at any time."

A small turmoil was quelled by Bai May, and the troublemakers returned to their camp in frustration.

They want to stay, and they feel that they are at a loss as coolies.

They wanted to leave, but they felt reluctant to accept the good conditions of the south river.

This night, they were all thinking...

On the other hand, the people who took the initiative to ask for labor in the north of the river thoroughly felt the difference in being accepted by Bai May on this night.

They gathered at a half-built council hall base in the middle of the city, lit a few bonfires, and without saying a word, began to roast mutton together.

Fresh mutton was supposed to be left for a day or two to be grilled before it was delicious, and I have only heard of someone washing rice and vegetables, but I have not heard of anyone washing meat.

Bai May washed all the mutton and soaked it in water to remove the blood, but he didn't expect it to be extremely tender when it was roasted.

The golden color, crispy skin, and even texture of the roast lamb bring a double enjoyment of vision and taste.

The scent came to the face, and everyone was conquered by such a simple and rough way.

More than halfway through the wine and meat, Village Chief Cheng walked to the center with the strength of the wine and wanted to say a few words.

The noisy scene was suddenly quiet, waiting for the village chief Cheng to speak.

Village Chief Cheng tidied up his clothes, coughed, and then said embarrassedly: "Everyone, I will use the strength of the wine to say a few words here." It's not good, just don't laugh at it! ”

Everyone: "You don't have to be awkward, we don't laugh at you!" ”

"Our village chief has been promoted to become a big steward, it's time to say a few words!"

Village Chief Cheng was embarrassed by the gossip, glared at him and said, "What are you yelling about?" Still won't let me speak? ”

When everyone saw that he was teasing him again, he really made people laugh, so they quieted down.

Village Chief Cheng took a deep breath.

"Our ancestors fled to the Luoweng River and settled on the banks of the Luoweng River, thinking that we could live a good life of stability and prosperity, but I didn't expect that it would become poorer and poorer, and there would be fewer and fewer people..."

"Those who can leave leave, and those who are reluctant to stay here still stay. When I was young and vigorous, I was like those who left, longing for a better life outside, so I went to explore! But in my heart, I never left my hometown. Why can't I be here? I can only say that the hearts of the people who are south of the river are more beautiful than the Rowon River! ”

The crowd cheered.

"Good! Well said! ”

Village Chief Cheng raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

"We didn't stick here in vain. Heaven sent the city lord to us, letting us know that our hometown also has unlimited potential, and we can live no worse than anyone else! I'm happy, I'm really happy! ”

"In the past few days, many big things have happened in Nanlinhe, and every day has made me live like a dream. Even if there are ten more old Cheng heads, they don't have the brain to understand what is happening. But the lord of the city has a good saying, do your own thing! ”

"When I did what I could, I found that my home had changed!"

"Today, I would like to thank the city lord who led the people of Nanlinhe to prosperity and strength, you have made us live a good life, and know that we are not useless."

"Folks, shall we toast the city lord with a glass of wine?"
