All the laborers in the valley sailed out, and Ziyu could only stay in the valley to be responsible for safety, because she was the only one who could call the snow wolf.

The merchant ships sailed out of Daxia Bay under the joy of everyone, and the life of the people in the valley is still made at sunrise and rested at sunset.

The mixed snow wolf begins to go out freely to hunt.

He has a soft spot for wild animals drinking water outside the valley, and every time he lies in ambush at the mouth of the valley, waiting for the wild things to appear and kill with one blow, he has always been killed.

After recognizing the master, the snow wolf did not share the prey for the first time, but dragged it back to ask Ziyu for credit.

Deer, wild sheep, hares, wild boars, roe deer, etc., have all become the souls of the five snow wolves.

Every time, Ziyu will take the wild things that the snow wolf hunts back and give half of them to the snow wolf as food on the spot.

The snow wolves, which are not enough to eat, will run to the sea fish in the shallows of disaster in Daxia Bay after each low tide, and the birds in Daxia Bay are chased by five snow wolves.

It is often the howl of wolves accompanied by the long chirping of birds, and the sound of flapping wings.

Because of the addition of the snow wolf clan, it has added a lot of vitality to Daxia Bay, and it has also become a divine object in the eyes of many people.

The snow wolf, who does not worry about eating, is fat and strong, and his body looks bigger, and he is even more majestic.

Freely moving in the valley, the majestic appearance is no different from the oily and slippery fur of the Lion King.

The well-fed snow wolf often sits on the highest part of the valley, watching the people of the valley work like an overseer.

The wolf howl outside has not been heard again.

Bai Wu's other two cubs were given to Xiao Luo by Ziyu.

The two little hairballs that ran with them ran wildly with Xiao Luo all day long.

When he can't run, he collapses on the ground and plays tricks, and Xiao Luo has a backpack that has not left his body since the little wolf, and it has become a nest of two small furballs.

The two were also named White Tiger and White Bear by Xiao Luo, and became Xiao Luo's loyal playmates.

…

Xin'an County.

The early morning sun shone on the city, looking at the old man Hu, who wanted to wear it, from the beginning of squatting at the gate of the county ya, to the current squatting at the gate of the city.

Old man Hu was so worried that he couldn't sleep all night, thinking that the money he brought back would be no problem for his family to build a new yard.

Who knew that the price of grain in the city had risen suddenly, and most of the money earned was used to buy grain.

The dried fish and whales they brought back helped a lot, and the family did not go hungry during the cold winter months.

In the city, there are people who freeze to death and starve to death every winter, but last year there were 20% more than in previous years.

The people who went to work together were looking forward to going again, and people came to find Old Man Hu every day.

Old man Hu, who was already in a panic, often didn't even dare to go home.

Guarding the gate of the city with a cigarette stick, a pair of old eyes staring straight at the only way.

Shi Liu came back with his two sons fishing, and the fish in the basket was less than 20 catties.

It's all small fish and shrimp, and they can't be sold for any price at all.

"Uncle Hu, did the owner send someone today?"

Shi Liu picked out the two largest fish from the basket, which were just over two catties, and tied them to the old man Hu on the side of the road.

"I didn't come, how was the harvest today!" Old man Hu took the fish passage.

"It's all small fish, so I can only take it back and eat it at home.

Uncle Hu, the owner is here to recruit people, you can give you a few beautiful words.

It's getting harder and harder, and there are a lot of people fishing on the beach.

Even the seaweed, which is rarely eaten, is picked up.

I still went out to sea to fight in the dark. ”

Finally, after a full winter, Shi Liu was even more reluctant to take the job in the valley.

even thought about selling the family to the valley, but was scolded by his mother-in-law and slapped twice.

If it weren't for the protection of his two sons, he would have been beaten well.

"It's no problem for me to give you a few kind words, it depends on whether the owner can recruit people.

It's April, and I'll pick up people at the beginning of the spring.

A lot of people in the city came to me to work.

I don't have a bottom in my heart, and my family is not having a good time.

Alas! It's getting harder and harder!

You don't have any underground seeds, so you have to hurry up and finish them.

Otherwise, as soon as the little owner comes, you won't have a chance. ”

Because he is a neighbor, and Shi Liu is also a capable person, Old Man Hu specially reminded a few more words.

"There are only four acres of land, and our mother will finish it in a few days.

It's still the same as in previous years, planting iron taro and sweet potatoes.

Hopefully it will rain a little more this year and not dry it again like last year.

Uncle Hu, let's go back first, and we have to go to the field to water. ”

Shi Liu's mother and son left with fishing nets and only about 20 catties of fish, and her sigh could be heard from a distance.

"Mother, sell me to the owner!

When you have earned money and food, they will be brought back to you.

Mother doesn't have to work so hard, and the family can survive. Shi Daniu said in a sullen voice, with a thick reluctance in his tone.

"Don't talk nonsense, if you want to sell your body, you are also a mother, and the family still depends on you and Erniu to support."

Shi Liu interrupted his son's words, and after being beaten, he also agreed with his mother-in-law's words, and the roots of the Liu family could not be destroyed in her hands.

"Mother, don't fight!

We can't lose our mother, and I can go out to sea to fish to feed you. Shi Erniu said with a crying voice.

The voices of the mother and son gradually faded away.

Just like those sad-looking people on the street, they are busy all day long just for a few mouths at home, but they often can't fill their bottomless stomachs.

…

A small group of people appeared at the end of the intersection, and Old Man Hu stood up excitedly, putting his hand between his eyebrows to shield himself from the dazzling sunlight.

stretched out his long neck and almost broke away from the tissue.

When he saw a familiar face, he staggered up to meet his numb legs.

When he was far away, he gave up his hand and shouted loudly.

"Steward Sheng, rare guests!

Lao Hu has been waiting for you for a long time, and finally he has waited for you.

The little proprietor is good, is there one? ”

Old man Hu searched around in the crowd, but he didn't see the benevolent little proprietor, and he was a little disappointed.

But to see the people of the valley again, I was overjoyed.

"Lao Hu has been waiting for a long time, as long as I come out for such a trivial matter as running away." Steward Sheng arched his hand slightly.

"Steward Sheng is right, the little proprietor has more important things to do, please hurry up!"

Old man Hu led the way in front of the head, and before the group arrived at the gate of the county government, the trustworthy people trotted and gathered.

Some people who had done the work crowded to the front and looked at Steward Sheng expectantly.

Steward Sheng was a person who was more familiar with them than Ziyu, and he had more dealings with.

When Zhang Xianling and Jia Shuren heard the movement outside, they knew that someone must have come to recruit workers.

During this time, the two of them were also very worried about this matter.

After the beginning of spring every year, it is the time when the green and yellow are not harvested, and the life of the people is also the most bitter.

I hope that Xin'an County will be rich more than Zhang County, a poor official is not easy to be, and there is no oil and water to fish.

He, the county magistrate, is also very poor.

If it weren't for the money and political achievements of selling mountains, he would not even be as good as the beggars of Dujiang Mansion as a county commander.

Steward Sheng saw a group of people who were pressed by the black, and many of them were even thinner than last year.

Only the people standing in front of them can still see the faces, and these people are workers at a glance.
