Chapter 43: Don't try to talk about it
"Go ahead!"
The old man touched the scene and wanted to go home to see, but Li Xing did not refuse.
However, the old man is still reminded not to delay too long.
After a while, we rounded at the foot of Montenegro.
The old man replied and thanked him again and again, and then turned to leave.
Li Xing and Li Gou'er entered the mountains, and Montenegro had long been deprived of vegetation due to two years of drought and experienced heavy rains.
Many coal mines exposed to the ground because of earthquakes, which are often referred to by the people, and even a small part of the coal mines have been naturally cleaned by heavy rain and can be used directly.
Looking at the coal mines all over the ground, Li Xing was overjoyed.
Li Gou'er has more memories attached to the system, and he also understands coal.
"Young master, with these coals, not only can more bricks be burned to build Lingwu County, but the people will not be so difficult this winter."
"It is also possible to build an economic center here with the coal mine as the center, and relocate the displaced people who cannot live in the county, so that they can have a stable life."
After all, only Lingwu County has rained, and the other counties are still in a severe drought.
Therefore, in addition to the 400,000 people registered in Lingwu County, a large number of displaced people have come from other counties one after another.
This made Li Xing think of solving the problem of displaced people.
Once decided, it's time to recruit people.
However, Li Xing also knew that he couldn't be in a hurry, after all, the county could live, who would want to come to this deserted village.
Therefore, he planned to get instructions from the gods to let those displaced people come after the Taiping Taoist Temple was completed.
Of course, this superstitious method can also be used, but it will take too much time, and it may cause misunderstandings and even cause dissatisfaction among the people.
However, out of caution, Li Xing still secretly spent 10,000 reputation points to exchange for a small ore detector.
However, to Li Xing's surprise this time, the system automatically gave away a memory modification.
So Li Gou'er didn't notice that something was wrong, but helped Li Xing operate.
The two spent an hour exploring a tenth of Montenegro, and found that the reserves were amazing.
Incorporate the detector into the system.
The two of them will reconcile with the old man.
When I returned to the foot of the mountain, I didn't see the old man.
They rented carriages, horses and carts.
This shows that the old man who left did not come back.
Seeing that it was already afternoon, they had some food in the morning, and Li Xing and Li Gou'er had a rumbling stomach.
"I knew it earlier, so I asked my father-in-law's family where it lived."
Looking at the deserted village, Li Xing had no clue for a while, so he could only go separately with Li Gou'er to find it.
Li Gou'er was worried about Li Xing's safety, so he said that he wouldn't go: "Where the young master goes, the dog will go." ”
"Let's look for it together, after we find it, find a village with people to stutter, young master, I'm almost hungry."
Li Xing rubbed his gurgling stomach and said.
Li Gou'er still shook his head: "Young master, the prince said that this place is haunted, and the dog is not at ease." ”
Li Xing was amused by these words, and patted Li Gou'er's head: "Are you stupid, have you ever seen the appearance of ghosts in the afternoon?" Even if there were, it was at night, and we were separated to find the husband, not just to leave after the evening came. ”
"Okay, young master, be careful, if you encounter anything wrong, run towards the east of the village."
Li Gou'er looked at the village, thought about it, and felt that what Li Xing said also made sense.
However, when he went to find the old man, he still told Li Xing.
"Got it."
Li Xing's heart warmed for Li Gou'er's advice.
The two separated, Li Xing looked for the west, and Li Gou'er looked for the east.
While looking for two people, he called the old man.
As a result, there was no sound at all but echoes.
Li Gou'er obviously has experience in finding people, plus he has kung fu, and the whole person listens to the movement with his ears while walking, and he looks for it quickly.
Li Xing can't do it, so he can only take stupid methods to find it one by one.
In addition, this is a mountainous area, and the residents are actually quite scattered, so it is really difficult to find them.
After looking for about thirty houses, plus he was hungry, Li Xing was already tired and out of breath.
Originally, he didn't want to exchange something as precious as reputation for cooked food, but he was really hungry and couldn't walk.
I could only grit my teeth and exchange it for a little prestige, half a catty of pig's head meat and a piece of cake.
I found a shady place in the corner and sat down, and the flatbread rolled the pig's head meat, and the aroma of the meat was already overflowing before I started eating.
"It's really fragrant, I have to say, the system is produced, and it is really high-quality."
Li Xing took a deep breath of the aroma of meat, it was simply enjoyment.
Holding it with both hands and taking a bite, Li Xing's taste buds were greatly satisfied.
Just as he was about to take the second bite, two crunchy children's voices suddenly sounded in the distance.
"That man, put down what you are holding, don't eat it, and the two of us can spare your life."
Li Xing subconsciously looked back, only to see two dirty children holding broken branches not far away, who looked to be about eight or nine years old.
Although he deliberately pretended to have a rough voice, Li Xing was extremely experienced, and he could hear it at once that these were two little girls.
After the two finished speaking, they kept staring at Li Xing, and one of the little girls smelled the smell of meat and swallowed uncontrollably.
As soon as I saw the emaciated appearance of the two, I knew that they were malnourished and hadn't even eaten for a long time.
If they were to eat pig's head directly, the two children would have to have stomach trouble.
So Li Xingsheng smiled and arched his hand to the two of them: "Thank you two heroes for sparing your life, in order to repay your kindness, Xiaosheng dedicated the rest of the food on his body to the two." ”
As he spoke, Li Xing quickly exchanged two bowls of egg soup and some vegetarian pies.
Watching Li Xing take out so many things as if he was juggling, the two of them showed vigilance in their eyes.
One of the girls pointed at Li Xing with a stick: "You retreat, retreat a little farther." ”
"Okay, back off."
Li Xing nodded hurriedly, and retreated while eating the pork head meat of the flatbread roll.
Seeing Li Xing retreating, the two girls walked towards food.
However, the girl who spoke just now did not go to eat immediately, but looked at Li Xing vigilantly with a stick and asked the other girl to eat first.
When the other girl finished eating, she took the stick and went on guard again, and the girl who had spoken earlier went to eat.
The two girls were actually observing Li Xing when they were eating.
When the other girl also finished eating, the girl who ate first asked Li Xing with some curiosity: "Are you a trickster?" ”
Li Xing was stunned at first.
But she quickly reacted to why she asked.
nodded vigorously: "Yes, Xiaosheng is a trickster, I don't know why the two heroes are here?" ”
The little girl started talking, and Li Xing hurriedly talked.
The little girl who asked before just wanted to answer, but the other little girl snorted coldly, and glared at Li Xing fiercely: "Trickster, don't think of words that are almost lying to us." ”
