He ordered housekeeper Chen and others to boil several pots of hot water for more than ten people, but the stench was enough to make them faint.
I haven't taken a shower in a few months.
Fortunately, it’s not summer, otherwise it would be difficult to comment.
Half an hour later, more than a dozen people, all dressed in a brand new look, were brought in by Butler Chen.
Maybe it’s because after being washed by water, people feel much more awake.
Seeing the two people sitting in the main seats, they all bent down to express their gratitude.
"Thank you both for saving my life!"
Seeing that everyone still looked exhausted, Jiang Ling gestured to Butler Chen.
"Butler Chen, please arrange for them to sit down. Let them squeeze in and sit for a while."
"Okay, sir." Butler Chen quickly made arrangements for the dozen people one by one.
After they all sat down, Jiang Ling said.
"Does everyone know what's going on with you?"
As soon as Jiang Ling finished asking, a middle-aged man answered.
"Sir, we don't know the specific situation.
But we still knew that we had encountered a black shop. After eating a meal, we were locked in the basement, and then someone delivered meals to us every time.
However, after eating, I always feel weak and don’t even want to move. I just lie there.”
"Do you remember how long you have been here?" Jiang Ling asked.
“I’m not sure, I arrived at the post station at the end of November.
I plan to go to Beili City to buy supplies for the New Year and then return to the Northern Territory."
At this time, others also spoke up.
"I am leaving the Northern Territory and planning to go to Beili City to find a job.
Life in the North is hard, so it’s better to go out and try your luck.
Who knows, I just wanted to rest my feet and drink some water."
"Yeah, we're the same."
"Yeah yeah."
After a while of talking, someone started crying quietly.
At this time, the middle-aged man asked again.
"Excuse me, benefactor, what time is it now?"
Jiang Ling didn't have any regrets. When going out, one should pay attention to safety in all aspects.
"It's already February. It's been over two months since you got here."
As soon as Jiang Ling finished speaking, everyone was still in disbelief and looked at him in confusion, thinking it was a joke.
Jiang Ling planned to tell them the truth.
“We just arrived at the post station today, and we are heading to the northern border.
As soon as I entered the post station, I found something wrong.
Their meals were all drugged.
So I started searching the post station and found you in the basement.
Look at your body again. Is there any difference between now and then?
Except for being weak and powerless."
Jiang Ling looked at them quietly after he finished speaking.
So everyone looked at each other.
The middle-aged man suddenly patted his stomach and exclaimed.
"Ah, how come I have gained so much weight?"
"I've gained a lot of weight, too."
"Yeah, you seem to have gained weight too."
"We couldn't even get enough to eat in the North, how come we suddenly became like this?"
The dozen or so people were really confused and wondered who was so kind as to give them such delicious food.
If Jiang Ling knew what they were thinking, he would just laugh.
It's like feeding pigs, you don't want to feed them until they are fat and white.
Are you all right?
So Jiang Ling stopped talking nonsense.
"It will take at least three to five days for the drugs in your body to be completely eliminated and for you to return to normal.
In the next few days, drink more water, eat some porridge, walk more, and exercise."
Hearing Jiang Ling's words, everyone nodded and thanked him.
Jiang Ling asked again, "Next, do you plan to continue working in Beili City, or return to the Northern Territory?"
At this time, the others looked at the middle-aged man and just listened to what he said.
“I originally came from the North to make money, but who knew I would almost lose my life.
However, the North is also very chaotic and dangerous, and it is very difficult for ordinary people to make a living.
We, a group of people, originally agreed to leave the northern border together and seek a way to survive outside."
After saying this, the middle-aged man also became worried.
Now, he doesn't know what to do.
To continue on to Beili City, they must also recover their bodies.
However, life during this period is also a problem.
The others also looked confused and didn't know where to go next.
They still seem to be in a state of confusion.
Jiang Ling thought for a moment, then turned sideways and spoke to Yue Qianli.
“Does this post station also need someone to continue operating it?
In the future, when the North develops well, it will also be a very important reception place.
If they are willing, we can hire them as post station employees, right?"
The more Jiang Ling thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. The post stations were already there, and there was no need to spend money on renovations. It was just that some small corners needed to be adjusted, and some things needed to be thrown away.
As he thought about it, he looked at Yue Qianli with shining eyes.
After hearing Jiang Ling's words, Yue Qianli thought about it and felt that it was feasible.
So, he smiled and nodded, indicating that he fully supported him.
Jiang Ling, who was supported, turned around and looked at them.
"It's like this. I have an idea, and I'd like to share it with you all. If you have any opinions, please share them with me."
I decided to take over this post station. I will be the boss from now on.
However, we are going to the north, so there is no one to manage this place.
If you all don't want to go to Beili City now, you can stay here. I'll hire you and pay you."
"My benefactor, I am very willing to stay.
My name is Li Xuan, may I ask your name, benefactor?"
