Chapter 174: Making up stories to deceive him again and again
It was this noble man who worked tirelessly for several days, risking being buried in the mine, to rescue them.
"From now on, my life, Tie Niu, belongs to you!"
"So am I, Dacheng!"
"My little Zhuzi's life also belongs to you, Village Master!"
…
More than a dozen people knelt down one after another. At this time, their feelings towards Yun Fu were no longer mixed with any dissatisfaction, but only gratitude and sincere loyalty.
Yun Fu was very calm. She waved her hand lightly and asked them to stand up.
"Since I'm your village chief, I'm responsible for you. This mine has too many safety hazards. You all must suspend quarrying. Once I've prepared the safety manual, you all must study it thoroughly."
After this incident, the entire Nanhuozhai obeyed Yun Fu's words.
Even if they didn't understand at all, they still didn't know what the so-called "safety manual" that Yun Fu was talking about was.
"What is this safety manual the village chief is talking about? I've been mining black gold stone for so many years, and I've never heard of it before."
"I haven't heard of it either, but what the village chief said must be correct. Let's just listen to it."
"Yes! Just because she treats us as human beings, I, Tie Niu, will follow her for the rest of my life."
…
Yun Fu won the hearts of everyone in Nanhuozhai just by doing this one thing.
While Qi Hanzhou was happy for her, he also felt a little jealous in his heart.
There is a new group of followers around his little Fu'er.
"Xiao Fu'er, aren't you going to sleep yet?"
Yun Fu hadn't slept for several days. At this moment, she was leaning over the table, holding her sore eyes, and writing a "Safety Manual" for the miners.
"I'll go to bed after I finish this."
Yun Fu knew that if she could come up with one more piece of information at this moment, perhaps in the near future, she could save a few more lives because of this information.
From preparations before entering the well and safety precautions to possible accidents such as gas explosions, floods, fires, toxic gases, how to prevent them and how to save yourself.
Then to the formulation of some new rules.
For example, the weak and sick are not allowed to go down the mine, and women, children, and the elderly are prohibited from going down the mine. Before entering the mine, everyone needs to be familiar with the contents of this safety manual and complete the assessment before going down the mine.
The next day, Yun Fu gathered everyone together and personally explained the contents of the safety manual.
The crowd below was noisy. They had thought that Yun Fu had been busy for so long and the rules he had formulated were the same as those of the previous village chiefs. He set heavy tasks for them and stipulated that they must mine a certain amount of black gold stone in order to obtain food, drink and other supplies.
However, they didn't expect that everything Yun Fu said from beginning to end was closely related to their safety.
For the first time, everyone felt that their lives were valued by others.
"She seems to really hope that we can all live well."
"No, she is teaching us how to live well."
…
Everyone listened very carefully.
If you encounter something you don’t understand, ask a few questions.
Yun Fu was not impatient at all and answered them one by one.
Not to mention these people, even Qi Hanzhou heard it.
He thought he was well-read, but as the top student in the first academy of Dasheng, Qi Hanzhou found that he sometimes seemed very ignorant in front of Yun Fu, a girl who was raised in seclusion.
"Xiao Fu'er, where did you learn all this? It seems that the Five Kingdoms have never had these books." Qi Hanzhou couldn't help but be curious about how she knew all this.
"Uh." He asked suddenly, and the last sentence blocked Yun Fu's way. She had originally planned to use what she accidentally saw in the book as an excuse.
"Ahem, then what I'm reading might not be an ordinary book. It's a one-of-a-kind, single copy."
"A unique copy?"
"Yes, it's a unique copy, a unique copy I got by accident."
"Then, was the powerful black powder you created earlier also recorded in that rare book?"
"Yeah, that's right."
Yun Fu was too lazy to make up a second excuse, so she just accepted what he said.
"Where is your unique copy now? Has anyone else seen it?" Qi Hanzhou frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.
Yun Fu was afraid that he would ask her to take it out again and let him see it.
He quickly replied, "That thing is no longer there. I accidentally burned it."
Yun Fu felt a little embarrassed after making up stories to lie to him again and again.
Qi Hanzhou did not continue to ask about the rare book. Instead, he reminded her seriously, "Don't tell others the method of making black powder easily."
"Why?" Yun Fu raised her eyes and looked at him.
"Because that thing is too powerful. Once used on the battlefield, it will cause a large number of casualties. I hope no one notices this today, and I also hope that what happened here will not reach the ears of those people."
Yun Fu didn't expect that he had the same idea as her.
I also know who those people Qi Hanzhou was talking about are. They are the ambitious people in power in the five countries.
However, Yun Fu didn't care.
If she is timid, that is not her nature.
"Let it spread. No matter what I do, Yun Fu, I don't want to do something, nothing will work."
——
Time flies, and it is almost time to trade with the Xie family.
According to the rules set before.
Nanhuozhai cannot leave the Ghost Prison, and the Xie family will not bring supplies to Nanhuozhai’s territory.
Therefore, the two parties will conduct the transaction at a trading location about a day away from Nanhuozhai.
Yun Fu learned from Wu Feng's former right-hand man that although the two parties were doing a deal, in reality, the Xie family was the one who decided whether the deal would go smoothly.
Because the Xie family monopolized the entire route for transporting supplies to the Ghostly Prison.
In other words, no matter how unreasonable the demands made by the Xie family were, they had no choice but to agree to them.
Otherwise, the Xie family would cut off their business with them.
Therefore, the transaction between the two parties is not equal at all.
"The black gold stone we worked so hard to mine is worthless to the Xie family. It all depends on their mood. Sometimes, a whole cart of black gold stone can only be exchanged for a bag of moldy grain and a few rotten cabbages."
Everyone works so hard for so long just to get a bite to eat, no one is willing to do that.
It would be better to make a deal with the people in the Ghost Prison.
At least, I can exchange it for more things.
But Wu Feng wanted to climb up the big tree of Xie family. Even though he knew that Xie family was taking advantage of him, he still went to make a deal with Xie family.
"Village leader, we are running low on Black Gold Stone right now. This time, how much Black Gold Stone should we transport to trade with the Xie family?"
Yun Fu's dark eyes were full of cunning and cleverness, and she smiled darkly: "You don't need to bring any."
As for her, she had no intention of making a deal with the Xie family.
