Chapter 243: Subjugating the Mountain People



Before Ren Jingxiao came in, he was also thinking of taking a gamble. If these people took action, he might get hurt.

But in the mountains, it certainly wouldn't kill him.

He won the bet, and these people were afraid of him, or rather, very afraid of him, so it would be easy to deal with them.

"We... help?" The man was stunned. Looking at Ren Jingxiao's unfathomable look, he felt that the matter was not simple.

"Yes, sit down and listen. Don't worry, I won't do anything. I only brought a tiger with me, and it was stubborn and insisted on following me. It's all my fault for spoiling them. Otherwise, you would have felt my sincerity even more."

Ren Jingxiao looked at Dapao with a helpless look on his face.

Those people thought Ren Jingxiao was too scary. How could this person live in peace with an animal? He even looked doting on them. It was too scary.

"What do you want us to do? We are good people and we won't kill anyone."

The leader knew that they couldn't escape, and didn't believe Ren Jingxiao's request for help.

What kind of help could these people provide? He must want them to do something illegal. Their first thought was to have them kill people...

The more they thought about it, the more panicked they became. Not only were their legs shaking, but their hands were shaking as well.

"I want you to help me grow some crops. Of course, I won't let you work for free. I will pay you, at least you won't go hungry."

Ren Jingxiao stated his purpose.

Those people thought a lot, but they didn't expect that he just wanted them to farm. Did he want to persuade them to go to the brigade?

"It's not that we disagree, it's that the people in the brigade are xenophobic. We don't have any family, we're all alone at home, and we get bullied everywhere. We'd rather starve to death than go to the brigade."

Several people thought that Ren Jingxiao wanted to persuade them to return to the team. They did not dare to refuse and could only pretend to resist with determination.

If it really doesn't work, just go back. What else can you do?

"You don't have to go to the production team. You can stay here in the mountains and grow crops for me. I guarantee you won't go hungry."

"If you are loyal in the future, I will take you with me wherever I go. You will never go hungry as long as I have something to eat."

Ren Jingxiao saw that they were so opposed to the life in the group, and since they were a group of homeless people, this was just right for them, as they could be free from any worries.

"What do you want to plant?" The leader looked at Ren Jingxiao and seemed to understand what he meant.

"Grow medicinal herbs." Ren Jingxiao looked into his eyes. He wanted to see whether he was more afraid of him as a person or more afraid of taking risks.

"You... can you really guarantee that we won't go hungry?" The man asked this question after a long silence.

These people who have no food to eat are just worth their lives, and just being alive is enough.

They are not afraid of any risks. If they were, they would not have robbed houses. He knew that Ren Jingxiao planted this to sell it for money.

They are mountain people. The most valuable things in the mountains are medicinal herbs, but good medicinal herbs are hard to come by.

They had no other options, and there were deadly wild beasts in the mountains. They had tried to find medicinal herbs, but in the end they were injured and lost their lives.

"Of course, there are game in this mountain, so you won't lack meat. What you lack is food, and you can grow your own."

"You are most afraid of wild beasts. You have no place to live, so you can't get food or meat."

"But I'm not afraid of them. With my tiger brothers here, no wild beasts will bother you if you grow herbs and food on their territory. As for the rest, I'll find them for you depending on your performance."

Ren Jingxiao made it very clear that food, clothing, housing and transportation were all taken care of, and he could also find a way to provide clothing. It just depended on whether these people would listen to him.

"As long as you can do what you said and give us a home in these mountains, we will follow you. We will do whatever you ask us to do, without any second thoughts."

The leader looked at the other brothers and saw that they all had eager faces, especially the one who said they would not go hungry.

He knew that they could not refuse this temptation, and no team would be willing to accept them.

They didn't want to leave the mountains either. Ren Jingxiao didn't need them to leave, and he could guarantee that the wild animals would not harm them. This was the best thing for them.

"I, Ren Jingxiao, always keep my word, but I don't tolerate any grain of sand in my eyes. If you go out and say something you shouldn't say or do something you shouldn't do, I won't show any mercy."

Ren Jingxiao knew that these people needed his help now, but once they settled down, they might have these little tricks up their sleeves, and he would no longer trust anyone.

"Don't worry, even though my Sixth Son is a wreck, I'm a man of my word. We brothers will do what we promised you."

"We don't care what these herbs are used for, and we won't ask you anything, as long as you don't cheat us."

The leading Liuzi looked at Ren Jingxiao and assured him.

At first, they thought that if he asked them to harm someone, they were struggling with whether to agree or not.

In the end, it just meant asking them to help with the farming, which was very acceptable to them.

They didn't dare to disagree. This man could fight wolves and be brothers with tigers. What else could he not dare to do? They were no match for him.

"I will bring the herbs I want to plant here in the next two days. Now, follow me to Dahei Mountain."

Ren Jingxiao brought these people to Dapao's territory, where he had some things left behind, so it was no problem for them to stay there temporarily.

Those people looked at each other and finally followed Ren Jingxiao.

Anyway, they were no match for him, and even if he wanted to do something to them, they had no ability to resist.

Several people arrived at Dapao's territory together. They saw that this cave was not much different from the home of the brigade, and their eyes were red.

They will have a home in the future, and as long as they are honest and obedient, they won't have to hide anymore.

They suddenly felt that God must have felt sorry for them and sent this man to save them.

It was already midnight when Ren Jingxiao returned home. He saw Ningxia sleeping in the rocking chair outside and knew she was waiting for him. He quietly carried her into the house.

"I'm back. Did everything go well?" Ningxia hadn't slept well to begin with, and she woke up as soon as Ren Jingxiao moved.

"It went very well, go to sleep!" Ren Jingxiao saw that she could hardly open her eyes, so he patted her back and coaxed her to sleep.

Whether it is medicinal materials or food, it will take more than a day or two to get them. There will definitely be no problem in a short period of time.

He planned to plant some fast-growing medicinal herbs first, but the weather was too cold now, and only the soil near the hot springs in the mountains was suitable for growing anything.

Ren Jingxiao thought about what kind of medicinal herbs could be planted near the hot springs and grow in a short period of time. This could be considered a test for those people.

When the weather gets warmer next year and he feels these people are reliable, he will consider other medicinal herbs.
