Chapter 91 Where did you go?
Jiang Yang said with a sullen face: "There is no one in that house."
Su Ying raised her eyebrows, "No one?"
"Yes, I went into the house and took a look around. I found no signs that anyone had ever lived there. I suspect that place was just where they delivered the goods."
Su Ying felt that this possibility was very high, and it also showed how cautious this person was.
"Things won't appear in that house for no reason. You continue to keep an eye on that man, and let Wang Su keep an eye on the house where he picked up the goods. I don't believe that we can't find their transaction method."
"Yes, I will continue to watch."
Because they had to build a lot of houses, the consumption of wood would be very high, so Su Ying asked Lian Jun and others to continue cutting wood in the mountains early the next morning.
The army soldier used the electric saw provided by Su Ying to cut down the wood one by one, and then piled them aside, waiting to transport them back when there was not much time left.
They were all working until they were sweating profusely, but they didn't dare to stop. Su Ying said that if the quantity was not enough, they would have food to eat, but they would have to "enjoy" a headache-inducing meal.
Thinking of the excruciating pain that made their whole bodies numb and they wished they could die quickly, they worked even harder!
"Boss, we are all really tired. Let's take a break. We are only thirty away from the total number. We will definitely be able to finish it in the afternoon."
Number One was also very tired, so he asked them to find a place to rest and distributed the rations they brought.
The soldiers chewed the coarse grains in their hands, feeling very unhappy. Who could have imagined that they would end up like this?
"Brothers, are you cutting wood?"
A man wearing a dark blue cotton robe and a cloth scarf on his head, looking very gentle and refined like a scholar, came over. Perhaps he was too tired, so he casually sat down opposite Lian Jun and the others.
The soldiers were all very tired and too lazy to even speak, so they just glanced at him and said nothing.
"My name is Yang Hui. I am a scholar living in Tiger Camp. I teach the children in the camp when I have nothing to do. If you have children who need to study, you can send them to me. I don't charge money. It is enough for me to have one pound of flour a month."
Lian Jun then looked at the man curiously, "Is there a place to teach in the Tiger Camp?"
"Yes, brother, are you new here? Then you may not know that we not only have a place to teach, but also a restaurant where you can eat meat for free."
The soldier became excited when he heard this. "Rice in Tiger Camp costs nearly 100 copper coins per pound. Why can they give people meat for free?"
"You may not know, but the shop owner was a kind man before. He was exiled here because he was framed. After he came here, he saw that the people here were not living well, so he found a way to get a lot of meat and gave it to everyone for free. However, each person can only eat once, and if you want more, you have to pay for it."
"Where?"
"Just walk south after entering Tiger Camp. You will see it in half an hour. It is called Dust Wind Restaurant." After the man finished speaking, he stood up and patted the grass foam on his robe. "It is getting late. I have to hurry down the mountain to avoid worrying my mother at home. Goodbye, brothers."
After watching the man walk away, Leng Jun spoke up, "Boss, do you think what he said is true? Is there really someone so stupid as to give others meat to eat?"
"It might be true, otherwise why would that kid come running up to us and talk nonsense?"
Number One said with a straight face, "Did you forget that those were corpses in the wooden building last time? Who knows what kind of meat it was? Forget about it, get some rest and get back to work."
Number One is very clear-headed. Who doesn't want to have meat for every meal? But this tiger has all kinds of people, so there is no need to risk one's life for a bite of food.
"Boss, are we really going to stay here and be ordered around by that woman? I've had enough of this kind of life." Some soldiers couldn't help but complain.
Number One ate the coarse food in his hand and stood up. "I won't stop you if you want to run, but don't think I will collect your bodies when you die."
Who is Su Ying? She could even kill the mother of her husband's confidant with her own hands. There is nothing she can't do. She can take the lives of these former hostile forces without even blinking an eye.
He wanted to resist, but he didn't have the strength, so he might as well take it one step at a time.
Number One got up to work, but he didn't notice that two young soldiers took advantage of his inattention and quickly ran in the direction the man left.
Night falls.
The rented soldiers pulled the cut timber back.
When they came back into the yard, No. 1 asked No. 2 to count the number of people, which was something that had to be done when going back and forth.
When number two counted to the end, he found that two people were missing, so he quickly explained the situation to number one.
"Boss, Tietou and Genzi are missing."
Number One had a very unhappy expression on his face. Su Ying had said that if someone was missing, everyone would be in trouble.
What you fear will come true. In the blink of an eye, No. 1 saw Su Ying coming towards him.
"Don't show any flaws yet. Those two guys might want to go out and hide. They might come back soon."
"kindness."
Number Two looked at Su Ying who was approaching nervously.
Su Ying came to check the quality of the wood, but as soon as she approached, she found that the boy No. 2 looked at her with fear and evasion in his eyes.
Su Ying narrowed her eyes and looked at the wood calmly.
These woods must have been grown for many years. They are of good size and quality, and are perfect for building houses and making furniture.
After the inspection, Su Ying did not leave, but walked around No. 2, stopped in front of him, looked at him with a smile and said, "What are you afraid of?"
Number Two's calves went weak and he almost fell to his knees. "No, no."
Su Ying raised her eyebrows, "Don't you want to say it?
Number Two's knees went weak and he knelt down. "Madam, calm down. Yes, there are two guys who haven't come back yet. They might have gone to take a shit..."
Su Ying glanced at the other soldiers calmly, "What's your number?"
"Eight, eight and nine."
Su Ying cast her gaze on No.1, "Why didn't you tell me when you came back?"
Number One's hair stood on end, "I didn't notice it when I was going down the mountain."
As she was speaking, Su Ying saw two sneaky figures walking in from the courtyard gate.
As soon as the two of them came in, they were caught by Su Ying. They were so scared that they stood there in a daze, not daring to move.
Su Ying looked at them with grim eyes, "Where did you go?"
The two of them were so nervous that they said, "Go, go take a shit."
Su Ying raised the corners of her lips lightly, "Really?"
"ah!"
Suddenly, No. 1 covered his head with his hands, and rolled on the ground in pain.
Su Ying said expressionlessly: "Let me ask you again, where did you go?"
