Chapter 166 Temple Priest
Xu Zhongze thought that he would definitely focus on the Mountain God Caravan in the future.
Regarding personnel management in the village, they are a post-disaster reconstruction village with a complex population. The mountain temple must have a full-time person in charge of daily work so that he can be free to focus on his own affairs.
It just so happens that Wanjia Village is going to make "arrangements", and they can also learn from Wanjia Village first.
The paper mill in Nibashiba Village was still under construction, and the other villages were a little surprised when they suddenly received a recruitment notice from Wanjia Village.
"Wanjia Village was gone, so why was it rebuilt? Is there anyone in the village?"
"Oh, it was Xu Zhong who helped with the reconstruction."
"Since this is the order from the Mountain God, we must help."
…
When the village heads heard that it was an order from the mountain god, naturally no one refused.
Even the village chief Jiang Ping of Shanze Village felt that this was more reliable than asking the goblins to help build a paper mill.
As for refugees, he had no intention of taking them.
Who knows what's going on when they come from outside?
If the person who came in was a bad guy, the village would not be at peace.
Shanze Village does not want refugees, but Nanxi Village, Beixi Village, Longyang Village and other villages are willing to do so. The reason they want it is very simple - to learn from their big brother Yilan Village. They will do whatever Yilan Village does and they cannot let Yilan Village alone gain the benefits.
Wumu Village Chief: "..."
Thank you for your trust, don’t you have any sense of autonomy?
Nanxi Village: No! I want to follow you!
Beixi Village: If Nanxi Village follows, I will follow too. My village was nearly wiped out by the flower-picking team because I didn’t follow them before. I can’t fall behind this time.
Longyang Village: My niece Yiyi told me to follow Yilan Village. I will do whatever Yilan Village does. That’s absolutely right.
Yuncun: ...I would like to follow, but the villagers won’t cooperate, so there’s nothing I can do.
…
Xu Zhong and Wumu Village Chief seconded Qu Haidong and her daughter to help "supervise" the construction progress in Wanjia Village.
On the other hand, he found Yu Zhongdou in Lanwa Town through the caravan and asked him to help collect information about the refugees and prepare to recruit them.
Xu Zhong originally wanted his son Xu Qiang to be responsible for this matter, but unexpectedly his daughter Xu Runiang jumped out and said that she wanted to be responsible for it.
Xu's mother frowned and said disapprovingly: "How can a girl like you do this? Let your brother do it!"
Xu Runiang said, "Mother, it is because I am a girl that I am responsible for this matter. Think about it, who are the refugees? They are all miserable people. If my brother, who is a big and strong man, goes to recruit refugees, who will he recruit? They must be young and strong people who think they have the ability and can do something...
But if all the laborers are young and strong, what will happen to our village? What should we do with Wanjia Village? We have so few people, if they have any intention of betraying us, we will not be able to suppress them at all.
It’s different when I show up. I’m a girl and I look weak at first glance. When the refugees see us, they will feel more at ease, and those with families, women and children will follow us. ”
She also cited the example of Qu Haidong and her daughter, who almost missed the opportunity because of their concerns.
"But..." Xu's mother hesitated, "What if you run into a bad guy? You can't just think about the good things, you have to think about the bad things too. You are a woman, what if there is a gangster hiding there and he wants to bully you?"
When Mrs. Xu saw that Xu's mother objected, she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth and did not say them out loud.
She just said, my sister-in-law is a woman, how can she steal work from her man? Is this reasonable?
Xu Runiang said, "Mom, do you think your cousin is just a decoration? I'm not going there alone, I have a cousin with me."
Xu's mother: "It's not good for a girl to show up in public... You're already engaged, and if the Gao family hears about it, I'm afraid they'll be unhappy."
When Mrs. Xu heard that her mother-in-law couldn't bear it anymore, her heart skipped a beat and she quickly chimed in: "Yes, sister-in-law, you have to think about this carefully. No man likes women like this. You will get married eventually, so this is not good..."
You are about to get married, but you still care about your mother's family's affairs. Isn't this too much?
Xu Runiang didn't look at Xu Dasao: "Mom, if Gao Guangliang really minds, then forget about my marriage with him. I haven't even entered the family yet, and he's already controlling everything. What will happen after I enter the family? Do I need his approval for what to eat and what to wear? I'm a human being, not his cat or dog."
Xu's mother winked at Xu Zhong and told him to tell his daughter himself that she could no longer calculate.
Xu Zhong is a open-minded person. He doesn't think there is anything wrong with his daughter doing this. His only concern is safety.
Since Yu Zhongdou was watching, he agreed and said, "Okay, if you want to do it, just do it. Do it yourself. If it works, then do it. If not, ask your brother to do it."
"Dad! Don't worry. If I really can't do it, I won't show off. I will definitely call my brother." Xu Runiang smiled and called her eldest brother Xu Qiang flatteringly, "Brother, if I can't do it well, you have to help me then."
Xu Qiang scratched his head with a silly smile and said, "Okay then."
Mrs. Xu, who was standing by, was so angry that she twisted his waist and told him to just respond casually. Why should he respond at all? This matter was originally his.
He didn't even think about the fact that he was the son of this family. If this matter was taken over by his sister, what would he do in the future?
He plans to let his sister inherit his father's things, right?
In secret, Mrs. Xu scolded Xu Qiang.
Xu Qiang didn't react. He said, "That's my sister!"
"What's wrong with your sister? She's your sister, she shouldn't snatch things from you." In front of his family, Mrs. Xu didn't dare to say anything, but when it was just the couple, Mrs. Xu wouldn't be so polite. "She's just a little girl, she's going to marry in Yilan Village, and she's snatching your job. What does she want to do? Don't tell me she wants to take over dad's position in the future."
Xu Ruyi overheard it and felt depressed.
She never thought of taking over her father's position. She wanted to intervene in this matter just to prove herself.
So what if she is a woman?
What men can do, women can do too.
If it were in the past, Xu Ruyi would definitely not think like this. She would be obedient like her mother, find a man to marry, and take care of her husband and children.
But when she discovered that Lord Mountain God was a woman, Lord Taotao and Lord Lili were also women, and even Wei Yiyi from the neighboring Longyang Village was also a woman, she also became an alien.
There was also the refugee Qu Haidong, a weak woman with the least advantage among the refugees. Because she could read, she became the designated "female teacher", the first person in Niba Eighteen Village.
This time, Xu Runiang could no longer sit still.
Are women really that weak? Is it really true that I can only hide behind a man and seek help?
If that's the case, what is the mountain god?
What are Master Taotao and Master Lili?
What is Wei Yiyi?
Who are Qu Haidong and the others?
