He Jiancheng watched everyone busy digging in the valley.
The kudzu roots were dug out one by one.
Someone immediately and skillfully put it into a basket.
He Jiancheng touched it carefully again and again.
With a satisfied look on his face, he said, "Kaifu, look at this Pueraria root, it's at least two years old..."
Each root is so strong that it is almost as thick as his arm.
Yang Kaifu's face was full of relief.
"If it weren't for its age, I wouldn't be willing to dig it up..."
"Kaifu, look at all these kudzu roots, those at the village entrance..."
The man turned his head suddenly.
Looking serious.
"Old He, I'm just an ordinary person at best, with limited abilities. I have to take care of my fellow villagers first."
"But if this Pueraria root is reported..." If it is reported truthfully, their village will more than be rated as advanced.
The man interrupted him.
"Lao He, I don't want to be a hero..."
If the villagers save some of the kudzu root, it will be enough to get through the winter. But if they give it away and use it to fill everyone's stomach, they probably won't be able to eat it for a few days. Instead, it will make people jealous for no reason. If they rashly go into the mountains, the situation will be beyond his control.
What's more, Liansheng risked his life to find this thing.
How can they use this as a wedding dress?
"Stop talking, Lao He. You're causing panic for no reason. Look at us fellow villagers, who hasn't been forced to go up the mountain? Once the news of Pueraria lobata gets out, people will be unable to be stopped from running up the mountain. Who will be held responsible if something happens?!"
He Jiancheng lowered his hands awkwardly.
He felt guilty for no reason as he was now standing on this mountain land relying on his large number of people.
There are big beasts in this mountain.
"Kaifu, you've thought it through more carefully. I'm going to warn those brats right now, don't talk too much!"
"Um."
…
The refugees entrenched at the entrance of the village seemed to smell an unusual atmosphere in the air.
At this moment, many people who were eager to try were looking around.
One of the bald-headed men squinted his eyes and looked at the villagers at the village entrance.
He asked the man next to him curiously.
"Skinny monkey! Look at them, why do I feel like they are all so happy today?"
The skinny man raised his head and glanced at it nonchalantly.
"You must be starving! How can you be happy..." Who can be happy when you don't have enough to eat or warm clothes every day?
etc.
Skinny Monkey carefully discovered that most of the people strolling at the village entrance today were elderly people with slow movements.
All the young men who used to play with cats and dogs, and some idle men, have disappeared.
The skinny monkey lowered his head and thought secretly.
"Laiqi, let's go into the village and see what they are doing!!"
Upon hearing this, the bald man nodded excitedly. He thought so too.
Holding their aching stomachs, the two men bypassed the large group at the village entrance and ran straight into the village along a small path.
I didn't see many people along the way.
Every house had its doors shut, and there seemed to be no one around.
The bald man looked at his companions in surprise.
"Look, there's probably someone hiding something in this village, not a single person is here!!"
"I don't believe this little village could have any secrets! Come on, come in and take a look..."
The two of them raised their feet and stepped inside.
It looked like it was heading towards the east end of the village.
"Stop!!! Where are you two coming from?" Old Mrs. Lu, who had just woken up, opened the door and saw two figures sneaking towards the village.
I remembered that my grandson had gone out to carry food, and there was no one left in the village.
The old guys at the entrance of the village were caught off guard and failed to defend against these two things, and they sneaked into the village.
That's too much.
Old Mrs. Lu quickly scolded the two of them.
The skinny monkey glanced at his companion, his narrow eyes filled with a dark light, and his eyes looked cunning and vicious.
The latter reacted suddenly.
Go straight to the old man.
