Yazhou is not as prosperous as Quanzhou, and there is no tooth shop here, but it is replaced by the city ship.

All businessmen who walk north and south need to have "notarization" in their hands, which is equivalent to the ID card of the previous life.

Xu Ling City Bo Si showed the notarization he carried with him, even if he entered Yazhou legally, he could do business here.

I have to say that the weather in Yazhou is really different from that in Quanzhou, although both belong to the south, but it was still snowing in Quanzhou not long ago, but Yazhou has a beautiful wind and sunshine, and the temperature is suitable.

The people on the street wore single clothes and did business with words they didn't understand, and many people had to use both hands and mouths to communicate.

However, there are also some special groups of people who know the official language and some local languages, so they can act as intermediaries between foreign merchants and locals.

When Xu Ling first arrived in a strange place, he did not immediately start acting, but walked around, observing and understanding with his own eyes.

Yazhou here is different from the previous life, this is a barren land, except for this small town, looking outside, the tall trees in the primeval forest make people feel cold, not to mention the changeable weather here, the typhoons that are visited every year.

The land is vast and sparsely populated, and the imperial court does not pay attention to this place, in addition to some aborigines, there are some special residents, that is, people who have committed crimes or been degraded and exiled here.

They settled here, multiplied, and knew some Mandarin, but they were no different from the aboriginal life here.

There are no tea shops here, but instead there are coconut stalls that can be found everywhere on the streets, and a coconut costs only three pennies and is inexpensive.

Xu Ling asked for one, opened the coconut mouth, inserted the rhizome of an unknown hollow plant as a straw, and walked on the street with it, quite leisurely.

"Let's Jean! Let's make it! Did anyone save him! ”

"What's wrong with him?"

"We were cutting down trees in the woods, and all of a sudden he fell to the ground and foamed at the mouth! I don't know what's wrong! ”

"That's broken, either it's been bitten by a snake, or crawled by a poisonous spider, it's not saved, it's not saved."

An old man in a robe, straw sandals, a bamboo pole in his hand, and a fishing net behind his back, spoke a non-standard Mandarin dialect and walked out of the crowd and asked the injured to be placed on the ground.

Squatting down and skillfully pulling off the clothes on the injured person's body, Xu Ling stood in the crowd watching the excitement, only to see that the man gradually lost his breath in a few breaths, his face became more and more blue and ugly, his body twitched, and white foam continued to gush out of his mouth.

Even if Da Luo Jinxian comes, it will be difficult to save.

The old man had just pulled down the undershirt on the man's upper body, and suddenly shouted, "Let me!" ”

Everyone was taken aback, and hurriedly dodged away, Xu Ling also hid a little farther, and saw a colorful big spider crawling out of the man's armpit, and the old man directly straddled the man, and stepped on the spider with a straw sandal.

"It's a poisonous widow! What a pathetic! ”

The spider was trampled to death, and the man who was bitten also lost his breath, and the old man sat back beside him, took out a string of wooden beads from his clothes, and put his other hand on the man's head.

On the other side, the companions of the deceased hugged their heads and wept.

Xu Ling learned from their chats with others that these people were not natives of Yazhou, but pickers from elsewhere, who followed the owner to Yazhou to cut trees and pick betel nuts to support their families.

"His daughter-in-law just got a body, how can I explain it to his family when I go back!"

The man at the head wept bitterly and was full of grief.

"Hey, then why don't you know how to wear long pants and long sleeves and tie your trouser legs?"

The old man who was reciting the scriptures got up and said in a serious voice: "The matter has come to this, you must learn from it, and you must not go to the jungle in a short fight, not to mention poisonous spiders, even those ants and insects can make you suffer." ”

Xu Ling was most afraid of these strange insects and spiders, and at this moment, goosebumps rose, and his cold hair stood on end, and he swore in his heart that he would never venture into the jungle.

"I don't know!" The man who was crying was also confused, they just came to Yazhou yesterday, and they were called to work today, and no one told them this, just when this is similar to their hometown, they talked and laughed when they worked, "He just said that he could make a lot of money just by cutting down a few trees, and he wanted to buy a golden hairpin for his daughter-in-law when he went back!" How did this happen? ”

The merchant who brought them here was a fellow businessman who knew that the price of agarwood and other spices here in Yazhou was high, so he came here to cut down trees and wanted to transport them back and sell them at a high price.

As for the money given to the tree cutter, it is far less than the price at which an agarwood tree can be sold.

Most of the locals are aware of the dangers in the woods, and they are very cautious about taking jobs, and they ask for more money.

Compared with the locals who pay high wages and are picky, many businessmen will deliberately conceal the facts, deceive their fellow villagers, and fill the hole of desire with their lives.

Xu Ling was extremely helpless, and like most people who watched the excitement, there was no other way than to accept this painful lesson.

I had to remind him: "Don't cry, take your friend and hurry to the businessman, and ask for more money if you can find him." ”

Someone looked back at Xu Ling and saw that he was carrying a burden and dressed as a businessman from a foreign country, and all he thought of was money, so he immediately turned his hatred and scolded: "A businessman is a businessman!" It's so ruthless and unjust! ”

"Hey, you can eat indiscriminately, don't talk nonsense," although Xu Ling's identity as a businessman was used to being scolded, he still couldn't help but defend: "I'm also for his good, people can't be resurrected after death, but his family can't live." If crying can make someone cry alive, let's all help him cry together, but since he can't, what's wrong with me thinking about his family? ”

Xu Ling's righteous words on his face, after speaking, he smacked another sip of coconut water.

It's a good word, but it looks like a heartless person.

Some people are not used to him, so go far away and not be with him.

Some people also think that Xu Ling's words are reasonable.

For example, Bao Li, a fellow villager of the deceased, hesitated and asked, "But what if he doesn't give it?" ”

"Since you are fellow countrymen and the people he recruited, and you die because of your work, how can he not give it?"

Xu Ling frowned, the current relationship between fellow villagers is not as simple as in the previous life, a businessman, no matter how black-hearted, against the same country, his ancestral grave is estimated to be immune.

Soon, Gu Hong, a fellow businessman of Bao Li, rushed over, and when he saw the deceased, he also cried a few times.

Just a few times later, he immediately wiped his tears and began to clear up the relationship.

"Bao Li, when a few of you from the same village came out with me, we signed a deed, saying that we would bear the casualties. I do a small business, but we are fellow villagers, and after the tree is cut down, I will give you an extra three taels of silver, even if it is his funeral expenses, what do you think? ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.

There were more and more people around to watch the excitement, and Xu Ling was reluctant to leave.

Bao Li's face turned pale, "Gu Hong, you didn't tell us that there would be such a danger when you tricked us into cutting down trees!" Can three taels of silver buy my brother's life? ”
