Chapter 32: Preparedness

"Qiao Xuan, you come out! We have something to say. ”

The next morning, before it was time to go to work, there was a shout outside the courtyard.

Qiao Xuan, who had just finished breakfast, opened the door and walked out, "I'm here, if you have something to say, just say it!" ”

The people who came were villagers from Taoyuan Village who did not participate in the road repair, and they glared at Qiao Xuan angrily, "We are also going to repair the road!" We're going to make money too! ”

The straightforward tone and the taste that was close to an order made Qiao Xuan sneer, almost thinking that he had offended these people yesterday and lost them something.

"The number of people is enough, there is no shortage of people," Qiao Xuan said lightly.

"The dismissal of the hired people in the town, in exchange for us, they are all from Taoyuan Village, and you always understand the truth that fertilizer and water do not flow into outsiders' fields, right?"

They watched for a day yesterday, and it seemed that the road was really safe, so after getting together last night and discussing it, they came to block Qiao Xuan today.

After all, it is not common to work for 50 salaries a day, and now that the crisis is over, it is natural to seize the opportunity.

"It's pretty good, but it's not good!" Qiao Xuan rolled his eyes, "At the beginning, I was the first to inform the people in our village, I only went to the town if you didn't come, and now you are clamoring to come, do you take the road construction as a child's play?" ”

Hearing Qiao Xuan's disagreement, the villagers all changed their faces.

"Qiao Xuan, don't think that if we call you the village chief, you are really the village chief of our Taoyuan Village."

"That's right! It's really a shame to give you the face to dare to speak to us like that. ”

"If you want to continue to mix in the village, listen to us, let us do this work, otherwise get out of Taoyuan Village!"

"If you don't agree to let those people go, don't even think about repairing it."

……

Qiao Xuan was laughed at angrily, and she said in a deep voice: "Shut up Lao Tzu!" ”

What kind of thing, if you want to come, you can't come if you don't want to come, and you are used to stinky problems.

The villagers of Taoyuan Village were silenced by Qiao Xuan's roar, and they all stared at Qiao Xuan with unconvinced expressions.

"No just no way! Get out of here! What to do, what to do. ”

Qiao Xuan picked up the broom angrily to drive people away, and a group of people reluctantly stepped back, and the slow-acting leg was hit by Qiao Xuan's broom.

"The matter of building the road is the order of the county magistrate, if you have any opinions, go to the county magistrate, don't gather here" Xi He walked out and said with a cold face.

Seeing that Qiao Xuan did not let go, the villagers exchanged a look and left.

"Xi He, you go to Zhao Tian's house at the entrance of the village and pay some money to hire their ox cart," Qiao Xuan suddenly said to Xi He.

"Are you going to town or not?" Xi He asked puzzledly, I didn't hear Qiao Xuan say that he was going out today.

Qiao Xuan smiled mysteriously and stepped forward to whisper a few words in his ear.

Xi He's ears were red, and Qiao Xuan's warm breath disturbed his thoughts, and he didn't come back to his senses until she retreated.

"Got it!" He walked towards the entrance of the village in a bit of a panic.

Qiao Xuan went back and said a few words to Xi Yan before going out.

"Village Chief Qiao is here!"

The villagers of Taoyuan Village, who were working, greeted Qiao Xuan warmly when they saw him coming, and other people hired by the town also followed them and called Qiao Xuan the village chief.

"Hmm!" After Qiao Xuan said hello, he began to check the road they repaired yesterday, and yesterday's progress was okay, and a small section had been repaired on both sides.

Maybe it's because I'm afraid that if I don't do a good job, I will be driven away by Qiao Xuan, and I will lose the opportunity to earn fifty yuan, but everyone is very meticulous and not perfunctory.

Qiao Xuan clapped his hands and called everyone together, "Let's have a little meeting." ”

A group of people put down the tools in their hands and approached Qiao Xuan nervously, thinking in their hearts if they didn't do a good job and wanted to deduct their wages?

"I just watched it, everyone is doing a good job, I hope everyone can keep it up and continue to work hard."

As soon as Qiao Xuan's words fell, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"If someone makes trouble in the process of building the road, don't be polite, control the person, I will deal with it, and make concerted efforts to protect the fruits of everyone's labor yesterday."

"Got it?"

"Got it! Village Chief Qiao, don't worry, if anyone comes to make trouble for me Zhang Ce will be the first to go up and restrain him" A sturdy and tall man in the crowd patted his chest and said loudly.

"So do we!"

Whoever makes trouble is the one who cuts off their wealth, and naturally he will not be spared.

Qiao Xuan was very satisfied with their reactions, and after sweeping his gaze, he landed on a few people in Taoyuan Village.

Those few people dodged their eyes, and they didn't dare to look directly at Qiao Xuan, they understood what Qiao Xuan said, and they also knew that the people in the village wanted to drive away these people from other villages.

They are now caught in the middle and are in a dilemma, after getting along yesterday, they have no hostility towards these people from other villages, but it is not good to stand on the opposite side of the others in Taoyuan Village.

I can only pretend to be deaf and dumb and continue to look at the situation.

"That's it! That's all I have to say, let's get to work. ”

Qiao Xuan waved his hand and motioned for everyone to get busy, Xi He came with an ox cart, his whole temperament was outstanding, and he was particularly prominent in a group of people.

"Village Chief Qiao, Village Chief Qiao" Xi He tied the cow under a big tree, and before he could get to Qiao Xuan's side, he saw Xu Gui coming from the road below.

Qiao Xuan heard the voice and turned around, "Why is Village Chief Xu here?" ”

Didn't you regret it and want to get some back the money you gave last night? She thought to herself.

Xi He quickened his pace and strode to Qiao Xuan's side before Xu Gui walked up to Qiao Xuan.

Xu Gui's grandson's matter was resolved, and he was not sluggish at this time, and he sensed Xi He's hostility towards him.

"I'm here to thank Village Chief Qiao" When he said this, he deliberately glanced at Xi He, as if he was explaining to himself.

"The scene was a little chaotic last night, I didn't have time to thank Village Chief Qiao properly, and I apologized to Village Chief Qiao for my family's confused old woman!"

Xu Gui took out a bamboo basket behind him, uncovered the cloth on his head, and a piece of fat and thin meat appeared.

Xiao Xinyi also hopes that Village Chief Qiao can accept it, "He is not stupid, people like Qiao Xuan have made good friends, and it is of great benefit, and if there is any trouble in the future, he can also seek her help."

His wife is short-sighted, only taking care of immediate interests, and will not plan for the long term.

How could Qiao Xuan not see what Xu Gui was thinking in his heart, he just saw through it and didn't say anything.

"Village Chief Xu, I won't accept anything, I have already collected what should have been collected last night," she said with a polite smile.

Xu Gui was in a hurry, thinking that Qiao Xuan was angry with Wang Cuilan, "Your Aunt Wang is such a person, don't be like her, you saved Xiaobao and is the benefactor of our whole family." ”

"Village Chief Xu has misunderstood! I don't accept it because we can only take what we should take in this line, and what doesn't belong to us is immovable, and it has nothing to do with Aunt Wang, yesterday's matter has ended, and I also took the silver, so Village Chief Xu doesn't have to keep it in mind anymore. ”

Qiao Xuan is not an insatiable person.

Seeing her resolute face, Xu Gui could only cover the cloth back, "Okay, since this is the case, I won't be strong, if there is a place for me in the future, Qiao girl, you can just say hello." ”
