Chapter 156 I'll go find him soon
Xiao Jin kicked his horse and chased after him. When the man was about to escape into a small path, he flew forward on tiptoe and blocked his way.
The other party didn't expect Xiao Jin to move so quickly. After being stopped, he was so scared that he turned around and wanted to run away.
But Xiao Jin would never give him this chance. He grabbed his shoulder and the man screamed in pain.
"Have mercy, have mercy, sir, have mercy."
Xiao Jin pushed the man against the wall, and glared at him coldly with his dark eyes, "What were you doing just now?"
The man's eyes flashed and he said, "I, I'm from the West District."
Xiao Jin didn't believe him, "What's your name? Where in the West District do you live?"
"He lives in a shabby house. His name is Gou San'er."
"Take me to where you live, and if you lie to me, I will break your neck."
The man was so scared that he wanted to run away, but Xiao Jin pulled off his belt and tied his hands from behind, "Go!"
The man was obedient now.
Su Ying turned around and saw Xiao Jin walking towards her with someone.
"Who?"
"He said he was from the West District. He was just peeking at us from the sidelines."
Su Ying glanced up and down at the man. Although he was thin, he was energetic, which proved that he was rarely hungry. It was obvious that he had a decent life.
Su Ying smiled wryly, "Boy, tell me the truth. At least I can save you from a beating."
The man had just witnessed Su Ying's methods. He said with a sad face, "I, I'm from the South District. I came from the South District."
"Yes, yes. Our South District Chief got wind of changes in the West District and asked me to come and get information."
Su Ying nodded. "Go back and ask the governor of your southern region to wait. I will go find him soon."
The man's face tightened when he heard this, and he felt that their district chief was in trouble.
Xiao Jin thought about it and let the man go.
The man broke free from Xiao Jin's restraints and ran away.
"Tian Mu, ask those who have read books and can read to step out and make other arrangements." Su Ying turned around and said to Tian Mu.
"Yes, ma'am."
After the integration, there are about a thousand strong laborers available in the West District, and the rest are children, the elderly, and some women who need to take care of the children.
"Tomorrow, divide these 1,000 people into groups of 100. One hundred will follow Cheng Ming to open up wasteland, one hundred will dig fish ponds, and the rest will cut wood in the mountains and dig pits for charcoal burning."
The area of Laohuying is actually very large, but not much of the land is utilized, and most of it is wasteland. If all this wasteland is utilized to grow crops, they can be self-sufficient even if they don't buy food in the future.
"Listen carefully, everyone. Start working tomorrow. If you have tools at home, bring them with you. If you don't have tools, find a way on your own. You can use tree roots or wood planks. If you don't have any ideas, just dig with your hands."
After integrating the West District, Su Ying and the others left, leaving the rest of the work to them.
Yesterday she counted the supplies in the space and found that she had bought a bunch of fruit tree saplings at some point. Fortunately, the time in the space was still, otherwise the saplings would have been wasted.
After returning home, Su Ying found Cheng Ming.
After being bitten by a poisonous snake, Cheng Ming recovered in a few days after being injected with serum. Now he goes to the fields with Aunt Jiang every day and works with Li Laosan and others.
"Cheng Ming, do you know how to plant fruit trees?"
"Fruit trees? What fruit trees are you talking about, madam?"
Su Ying turned around and went into the house, and came out with a bundle of saplings.
Cheng Ming picked up the sapling and examined it carefully, then looked at her in surprise, "This is a citrus sapling, where did you get it from, madam?"
Su Ying said without thinking: "It was obtained from Tiger Camp. Hu Wei had people buy it before. Can it be planted now?"
Cheng Ming said: "According to our current weather conditions, we should be able to catch up and plant the saplings in time. If we are late, it will be too late. I wonder how many saplings there are?"
Su Ying thought about the inventory in the space and frowned, "It shouldn't be that much."
"not much?"
After Su Ying finished speaking, she went out. When she came back, she brought back several carts of saplings.
It’s not her fault that she bought so much at that time. It was really because the thing was cheap, two for one copper coin, and she thought it was a good deal, so she put them all into the space.
Cheng Ming was so shocked looking at the tall pile of saplings that his mouth couldn't close. This was not a lot. If the hill was small, all these saplings would not be planted completely!
Xiao Jin was also surprised when he saw so many saplings. "Why did Hu Wei buy so many saplings?"
Su Ying raised her eyebrows, "How would I know?"
Xiao Jin looked at Su Ying and saw that her eyebrows were raised when she spoke. Based on his observation for such a long time, he concluded that she was lying, but she did not expose him. He was waiting for her to tell him the secret that she had been keeping one day.
Cheng Ming quickly asked everyone to help take down the saplings, because if the vaccines were piled together for too long, they would not survive if they were planted.
"Madam, I think the slope that caught fire is very suitable for planting these saplings. The land has become fertile after the fire. We can turn the soil over and plant the saplings there. We don't have to re-open the land. This can save a lot of time and increase the survival rate of the saplings to a certain extent."
Su Ying also thought that the earthen slope was good, neither too high nor too low, just the right height. "Then you can take the 100 people from the West District to work there tomorrow."
"yes."
On the other side, the man who was let go by Xiao Jin ran all the way back to the South District.
The man rushed into an exquisite wooden building.
"Master, Master, I am back."
In a room at the end of the second floor of the wooden building, a man who was so fat that he could hardly open his eyes was lying on a large wooden bed with his legs spread out. Beside him were several beauties kneading his fat body.
"What are you doing? Are you looking for death?" Long Ba sat up from the bed and glared at the man angrily.
"Don't, don't be angry, Region Commander. I have found out the information you asked me to find out. Today, the people from the East District really took care of the West District. Some of the stubborn people who refused to obey were all defeated."
Long Ba raised his shallow eyebrows, revealing a pair of eyes that were almost squeezed out by fat, "Just cleaned it up?"
"She's done, she's done. It's the woman who had been at odds with the Qinglong Camp before. She made those people behave themselves as soon as she arrived."
Long Ba stood up from the bed and walked around the room with his fat body. "Go prepare some gifts. I'll go to Tiger Camp tomorrow."
"yes."
…
At night, after dinner, He Shouyi found Su Ying.
Seeing his embarrassment, Su Ying took the initiative to speak: "Uncle He, just tell me if you have anything to say."
He Shouyi rubbed his hands in embarrassment, as if he felt very embarrassed. "Originally, I am a burden to the Madam, and I shouldn't have made such a request. But we are reunited as old friends for many years, and I really..."
"Uncle He wants to be with Uncle Murong?"
