Chapter 349: Plan

Without even a second of hesitation, Li Ce made a prompt decision.

At this time of year, there is no need to say how cold it is in the wild after nightfall. Even if we leave aside the temperature issue, the food issue cannot be avoided.

They went out to carry out the mission, and although they brought some dry food with them just in case, that little bit of dry food was basically enough for them to eat.

In addition, there are 19 grassland elves who have probably been hungry for a while. It would be better to go back overnight to avoid any more trouble.

After tidying up the ox carts, I freed up one, and each cavalryman could squeeze in and take one, so that was almost enough.

The group moved as quickly as possible, but by the time they arrived at the other party's temporary camp, it had already darkened outside.

Silk's arrival gave the grassland elves here a shot in the arm.

Looking at the excited tribesmen, Silk quickly signaled them to calm down.

"Okay, we'll talk about the details later. Everyone, follow my instructions. We are going to the village of Da Zhou now."

In the previous battle, the grassland elves had lost their chief and elders, and the rest were basically like a group of headless flies. The appearance of Silk helped them find their backbone.

At this moment, they all obeyed the order, allowing Li Ce to pick them up smoothly, and then they set out on their return journey in the cover of night.

During this time, in Caoyuan Village, Ye Jinghong, who received the news, had no intention of staying in the village and waiting. Instead, he immediately arranged for two more ox carts to come out, and then set off along the necessary road, and successfully met with Li Ce and others who were cold and hungry in the middle of the night.

The addition of two ox carts allowed the nineteen grassland elves to be divided among three ox carts.

Compared to the original ox cart that was packed full, it is now not only more spacious, but the grassland elves can sit more comfortably.

More importantly, the weight that the cattle needed to bear was reduced, which in turn increased their pulling speed, allowing them to return to the grassland village smoothly with higher efficiency.

Ye Jinghong, who had received the news in advance, had already arranged everything here. As soon as Li Ce and his companions arrived outside the village, there were special personnel to pick them up.

At the same time, because of the unexpected situation here, the medical department and the kitchen had to work a late night shift.

The medical department in particular is full of resentment.

From their point of view, this group of grassland elves can really increase their workload.

In comparison, Li Ce and the others had nothing to worry about.

After having a hearty midnight snack in the kitchen, you can just wash up and go back to bed.

And because of the turmoil that night, they tacitly gave half a day off to those who participated in the operation.

Of course, this excludes the medical department and the kitchen.

If these two departments were to take a holiday, it would have a significant impact on the entire village.

The work pressure in the kitchen is usually not that great, so it's not a big deal, but the medical department has been in turmoil recently. We finally waited for some of the prairie elves to be discharged from the hospital, and the work pressure is finally going to be reduced a little.

As a result, five left and nineteen came! Don’t think that these nineteen grassland elf refugees will be healthy or not injured. After staying in this icy and snowy place for a period of time, frostbite is basically inevitable.

Under this premise, if you are hungry for a long time, you will easily become weak, and once you are weak, you will easily get sick. These grassland elves have many problems.

After working a long night shift and being busy all the time, the director of medical department doesn't even have the energy to curse. Otherwise, he would definitely have fought with Ye Jinghong!

Ye Jinghong was obviously aware of how "crazy" the thing he had done was.

To be honest, he stayed up most of the night last night and got up early this morning to work. He is not much better than the Minister of Medical Affairs.

However, he also knew that it was unrealistic to reason with his old friend under the circumstances.

Instead of thinking logically, he simply asked his followers to go over and make a big promise to the Minister of Health.

"The village chief said that you have worked hard during this period. After this period is over, I will definitely give you a long vacation so that you can have a good rest. In addition, everyone will receive a bonus this time! Your salary will be doubled at the end of the month!"

After hearing these words, the members of the medical department, headed by the director of the medical department, had finished their work and were no longer energetic. They really did not have the energy to make trouble with Ye Jinghong.

Now, after hearing Ye Jinghong's promise of a long vacation and bonus, everyone's mood has indeed improved a lot, and the matter is basically over.

As for what happens next, the medical department will be responsible for treating illnesses and injuries. As for if those elves have any other troubles, Ye Jinghong will directly throw Silk to the medical director.

The meaning is very clear, that is, if you have any trouble, you should go to him, don't come to me.

I have to say that this trick is quite effective. With Silk around, most of the troubles of the grassland elves can be solved.

After two days when everyone was busy and confused, Zhou Xu came over after receiving the news.

As early as the next morning after receiving the nineteen grassland elves, Ye Jinghong, the mayor of the village, sent a messenger to inform Zhou Xu in Black Moon Village of the news.

Now that the snowstorm has stopped, Zhou Xu, who is traveling on horseback from Black Moon Village to Grassland Village, can naturally come and go freely.

This time, he was accompanied by a batch of newly arrived relief supplies.

After all, the grassland village had suffered certain damages in the previous snowstorm, and with the addition of nineteen new grassland elves in the village, the increase in material consumption was completely foreseeable.

After briefly understanding the situation with Ye Jinghong, Zhou Xu pondered for a moment.

"Go call Silk over. It's about time we talk to him."

How big is the Prairie Village? The news that their leader had come to the village had spread a long time ago. Although Silk was from another village, as long as he stayed in this village, he would definitely know about it.

At that time, I also thought to myself, "There are indeed other villages in Da Zhou."

However, during this period of time, his energy was mainly focused on his surviving tribesmen, and he really did not have more energy to think about other things.

Unexpectedly, the other party actually asked to see me directly.

On the way there, Silk's whole state unconsciously became tense.

You know, he wasn't like this when he first met Zhou Xu.

Silk actually knew the reason.

The village was reduced to ruins, and they basically lost everything. Now, if they leave the grassland village, they don’t even know how to survive! In other words, the life and death of the grassland elves is already in the hands of that man! (End of this chapter)
