When she said to pack up, cheers came from the guards in front.
"It's great that this gang of bandits has retreated."
Xiushui ran over quickly. Heige had also stabbed two people today. Although she was attacked from behind, she ran away spinelessly.
But no matter what, it still poked the feet of two people.
The little girl walked in front of the group of children of different heights with a chutzpah-like pace, as if she didn't recognize any relatives.
I am so envious of her show love that follows closely behind her.
"Brother Hei, you are really amazing. You are the only one among our group of left-behind children who took action. I wanted to take action, but I flinched when the local people glared at me."
"Tiger Head also admires Brother Hei."
"And me, Xiuye also admires me."
…
A bunch of little brothers and sisters were all praising Brother Hei, which made Heiniwawa who was following them dissatisfied.
"Hmph, poking two people is nothing. I don't even know how many people I've poked today. Little girl, hurry up and call me brother. I'll protect you from now on."
Looking at the extremely cocky Heiniwa, Heige grinned, then swung his little arms and legs to attack him.
"You're a criminal who's still in labor camp, and you still dare to shout in front of Brother Hei. Guys, come on!"
“Fight, fight, fight…”
"You dare to bully Brother Hei and be our big brother? You, a black mud kid, are not qualified. Fight, fight, fight..."
A group of boy scouts gathered together and attacked Heiniwawa.
The scene instantly became chaotic, filled with the screams, shouts and cries of killing from the child soldiers.
When Chief Luo came out of the car, he saw this group of lively and active children. He straightened his back and strode forward.
Several elders in the tribe also ran over tremblingly.
"Luo Hong, it's all thanks to you, otherwise our entire clan would have been killed..."
"Well, I just thought of it because the people in Houshan Village are kind and capable. I didn't expect that they would save our lives inadvertently."
"This time, we really owe it to the villagers of Houshan. We should repay them handsomely. Let's go and thank them."
A group of people went towards the villagers of Houshan, but unexpectedly found that these villagers were doing strange things again.
All those who were knocked down and injured were thrown aside.
The dead were all carried to the side, and groups of people, some in groups, were stripping off their clothes, removing their hair, and taking off their shoes...
"this?"
How could a group of people who were used to a life of luxury feel their whole bodies go cold when they saw such a Shura scene?
"What are you doing, niece?"
Li did not participate in the act of digging up the body, but she still had to keep an eye on the scene.
This group of guards and their wives and children, now several people are digging at a corpse...
To be honest, she felt quite uncomfortable watching this, but she was reluctant to talk about this kind of extra income.
When he heard the call from Patriarch Luo, he turned around and saw the Luo clan members with terrified faces.
She coughed and hurried forward.
"Well, it's nothing. These guys are so poor. It's also a time of famine. I can see that the clothes they wear are okay... Hehe, they are really afraid of poverty."
It turned out to be a corpse digging. The clan leader’s wife sighed, walked forward, took her hand and expressed her gratitude uncontrollably.
"Niece, this trip is all thanks to you. I didn't expect that Sun Qiang, that bastard, was so mean and actually wanted to wipe out our Luo family.
If it weren’t for you…”
Li smiled and let her express her gratitude, and responded with words like "it's our duty, since you paid the money, we should do our share."
Finally, Patriarch Luo took out a silver ingot worth five hundred taels on the spot.
"You all helped us, so let's not talk about any other nonsense. Please accept the five hundred taels!"
When the people in Houshan Village saw the rows of silver ingots, their eyes lit up.
Dozens of silver ingots were just lined up in a row and disappeared from people's sight.
"That's a lot of money."
Some people were amazed, and the old village chief stepped forward and said polite words, but his hands quickly covered the silver.
"Okay, we'll accept your kindness."
After receiving the silver, the old village chief called everyone over.
"Everyone has contributed today. Should we share the money or not? How should we divide it? Should we share it now or later?"
"Let's divide it up now. Each member of the guard team will receive one tael. Then divide it up into households, one tael per household.
The rest will be left with the old village chief for now, and we will settle them down when we get to the land later."
Wen Bibo's proposal was highly praised by the people present.
Let's leave it all with the old village chief. To be honest, if we encounter some thieves on the way, or if there is any emergency, we will be heartbroken if we lose all the money.
Most of it was distributed, and the rest was used to settle the whole village. It was a good thing to have both sharing and saving.
Lao Qian's family originally thought that they would not get any share of the money, but who would have thought that in the end they would all get money according to their household status.
“This…this?”
Lao Qian and others couldn't believe it. After all, they were from another village, not Houshan Village.
"I have discussed this with several elders. You have been with us from the beginning to the end. After we reach the end of the land, we will be assigned together.
From now on, you and I are all refugees from the same place, and there will be no such thing as Houshan Village or Lizi Village.
We are all refugees. So you also have a share of this money."
"Well... hehe... then we'll take it, we'll take it."
These former landlords really didn't care about one or two taels of silver, but it felt really good to be identified as one of their own.
Human nature is xenophobic. Once you integrate into the group and become one of their own, the feeling will certainly be different.
"However, they also emphasized that the money you promised earlier still needs to be paid later."
"That's as it should be, as it should be, hehe..."
Several people who joined later were overjoyed holding the taels of silver.
Xiushui happened to overhear what was happening not far away from them and sighed to the old lady.
"I really find that the village chief is a talented person. How come such a person is not an official?
If he were to become an official, I believe he would thrive."
The old lady nodded and called Lao Liu over.
"You see, you've been getting closer to Uncle along the way, and he has a lot of wisdom in dealing with people and things.
"You should read more, learn more, and understand more. If you want to enter the officialdom in the future, it will not be a bad thing for you to learn his skills."
Lao Liu nodded. "Mom, I understand. It's not just the village chief, but also Uncle Qian and the others. They all have very good knowledge points.
There is so much for children to learn.”
"Sixth Brother, it's great that you have this awareness. What I want to tell you is that in the officialdom, you have to compete not only with your ability but also with your people.
That road is not easy to walk on. If you want to choose the most difficult road, you must learn to be tactful.
Be tactful, but don't lose your integrity, or you'll become as soft as mud and people will just treat you like a dog!"
