"As for what benefits they are, you'll find out when they're distributed!"
After thinking it over, the three Niu brothers ultimately chose the desolate west.
They had never heard of Linjia Village, but Huangxi was just west of Huangxian County, very close to the county seat, so they could easily find out about it.
They're here to do a mission, not to actually work, so of course they have to choose jobs that are close by.
Of these ten people, two chose Linjia Village, and they were each taken back.
The three Niu brothers arrived in the desolate west, by which time it was already completely dark.
Three meals were delivered from outside, containing not only fragrant rice but also tender chicken.
The three Niu brothers swallowed hard.
"Are the working conditions this good in this remote county?" Niu San took a bite of chicken and almost swallowed his tongue.
Niu Da, standing nearby, remained remarkably calm: "This is definitely a trap set by the county government to lure us in. We might be dragged out soon to fight those rebels! This is our last meal before we're beheaded!"
The other two brothers shuddered. They knew they had to run back immediately and explain the situation to their godfather!
The next day, the three brothers were woken up early in the morning and assigned work.
"They're really building houses, aren't they training troops for a rebellion?" Niu Er muttered to himself, watching the people coming and going carrying stones.
Since it's not a rebellion, their meals from now on certainly won't be very good.
"Big brother, second brother, are you hungry? I brought some dry rations. We'll just have a bite to eat." Niu San pulled out a hard, black cornbread.
His two brothers were very moved, and each of them took a cornbread and started eating it.
These are true brothers!
However, as soon as they turned their heads, the three brothers saw Manager Wang's familiar figure walking over, with three large buckets beside him.
As soon as the lid was lifted, the aroma of rice porridge wafted into their noses. The three of them looked at the crumbly cornbread in their hands and suddenly found it unappetizing.
