He said to her: "My father said that when evildoers do evil, you should try to avoid them as much as possible. The most important thing is to protect yourself."
Yan Yu shook his head and said: "Isn't that too dangerous! If you can escape once, what about the next time? How can you protect yourself if you encounter it? Do you expect bad people to be kind?"
Liang Fengnian pursed his lips tightly and whispered: "I think the people in your village are very powerful, and your uncle, I... I think he did the right thing!"
"Are you talking about my uncle leading people to kill bandits?"
"Um!"
"We just wanted to protect ourselves in the beginning."
Yan Yudao: "If you don't want to be harmed by bandits, you can only take the initiative to attack. The bandits are nesting in one nest and killing their people. We then become enemies with them and wait for them to come for us. We might as well take action first."
There were very few bandits we met at the beginning, only a few. We were very afraid and had to keep them, so we made a lot of preparations... Later we found out that the bandits are very fierce, but they are not invincible."
"Have you heard of Fengnian? Barbarians often come to Guanzhou to cause trouble. My uncle said that they are more ferocious than bandits. Although we are still young, we can do a lot. Adults can't always keep an eye on us. What if?
When we cannot take care of ourselves, at least we know how to protect ourselves.
Moreover, we will always grow up, and when we get older, we may be more powerful than them, haha! When that time comes, we will be the ones protecting them!"
"Little brother, take me to practice with you!" Liang Fengnian's voice was trembling. "I also want to...become good."
"Of course!" Yan Yu said with a smile: "Didn't I agree? You will also be a Boy Scout from now on.
Also, have you asked your parents if they agree with you coming to my house to earn work points?"
Liang Fengnian: "Both my parents agree. If your family has work to do in the future, please remember to call me brother."
"Okay! I'll call you when the time comes." Yan Yu compared his height and said, "You are shorter than me. When we get back, I will ask Uncle Qi to cut a wooden stick for you."
"Come on, come with me to help."
When the bone soup bottoms out, add water again and add bones. During the waiting time, Yan Laoer is never indifferent.
I told the victims to drink boiled water. Drinking raw water directly can cause stomach upset.
Now that you have the conditions, clean yourself up and feel refreshed so that you won't get sick easily.
The sun is too bright above my head, so I get sunburned easily, so I wear a straw hat to protect myself from the sun.
Make more water storage tools, it looks like it will be a hot day.
When walking in the mountains, it is best to prepare some pesticides to prevent insects and snakes. If you cannot collect them yourself, you can discuss with the mountain people to replace them.
Those who want to continue on the official path are best to go together...
Be long-winded and say whatever comes to mind. In short, you should fill the minds of the victims and prevent them from becoming anxious due to waiting.
We will also answer some questions from the victims.
The victims were very grateful and wanted to know their origins and names.
When do you plan to hit the road? When do you rest every day? Will you walk fast? If you don’t take the official road, is it closer to the mountains? Will you lose your way?
Some people have seen people in the village modifying cars and asked if it was possible to make handcarts and sell them to them...
No matter how powerful the bandits were in their search, there were still people who hid the money and were not found.
Yan Laoer and Qi Wu summed it up.
I think this business can still be done.
He told everyone: "We can only do it while we are resting. It won't be too fast. Those who want it will have to wait."
When the man saw that he had agreed, he was so happy that he came over and thanked him profusely.
"First of all, let's talk about it. Our work should be rough, but it doesn't look good. We should try to make it as solid as possible for you." Yan Laoer said something ugly before him.
"I don't care, I don't care. It's much more convenient to have a stroller, but my wife has sprained her foot and can't walk."
"If you want to push people, the car should be bigger?" Yan Laoer looked him up and down, "Can it be pushed?"
The man scratched his head and thought for a while, looked around, pointed to a cart in their village, and said, "That size will be fine. Let my mother sit on it, and I have a brother who will take turns pushing it. I'll definitely make it."
Yan Laoer nodded.
The two agreed on the price, and the man left two silver coins as a deposit.
"Brother Qi Wu, take it." Yan Laoer gave him the money.
"If you want to chop down trees and move wood, just say something. If we see what we can do, you can assign us. We all listen to you."
Qi Wu blushed and said why he didn't want the money.
"Brother Yan, I don't want it, you keep it, keep it."
"Why don't you want it?" Yan Laoer said with a fierce look on his face, "You must hold it. We will work for you in the future, and you will give us copper coins. You don't accept the money, and you want us to work for you in vain!"
"I...I don't know how to do math. Brother Yan, can you keep it for me?"
"Then let Qi Si take it." Yan Laoer said: "As a clerk, you will never say that you can't figure out such a simple account."
Qi Si thought about it and accepted it.
"Brother Yan, what do you think is the appropriate amount of money to pay to those who help?"
"We rest at noon and in the evening. Since the sun is too strong at noon, we should take some time to do it in the evening. It doesn't take too long. We are all tired after walking for a day. We don't waste an hour or two to rest.
Brother Qi Wu will do the main work, and the rest of the moving and lifting, as well as some small odd jobs, are tentatively priced at ten cents per person, what do you think?"
Naturally, the Qi brothers would not have any objections. They knew in their hearts that Yan Er would not let them suffer.
As soon as the first one comes to order a car, there will be a second one.
The four of them did not expect that the demand for trolleys would be so great.
Here again I want to complain about the bad behavior of the bandits. They think the carts take up space, so they either abandon them on the official road or chop them up and use them as firewood...
When Yan Yu heard that her father and uncle from the Qi family had taken over the custom-made trolley business, she was speechless.
A car costs 800 yuan, which seems like a lot, but who would take a taxi and sell it on their way to escape the desert?
Chopping down trees and sawing wood are all laborious tasks.
Of course, these may not be a problem to Uncle Qi's family.
But the more they work, the more they eat. If you calculate the cost carefully, I really don’t know whether this business is a loss or a profit.
However, she could vaguely guess what her father was thinking. He probably wanted to help a group of victims, and making money was probably just a side trip.
As the number of victims receiving soup dwindled, the villagers joined in and came to line up with bowls in their hands.
After taking a sip, I exclaimed: "It's too bland, but you can still taste that there is salt in the soup!"
"Yan Laoer said that the remaining bones can be dried in the sun, ground into powder, and mixed together to feed the animals."
"Speaking of this, I wonder if you have noticed that Yan Laoer always secretly feeds a few mules and donkeys in the village."
"Why didn't you notice it? I've seen it before. It's like a thief thinking someone didn't see it."
"I also tried to feed his cow, but unfortunately the cow recognized me so much that he didn't even eat a bite."
"Is there anything else?"
"Once the Yan family's cattle are raised, they are considered members of the same family."
…
Everyone began to prepare for the road.
The team carrying water up the mountain formed a long queue.
The steamer in which the steamed buns are steamed has never been turned off, and the steam is rising. All the women in the village are helping here.
Everyone learned how to do it from Yan Laoer. Even those who were not good at the craft before are now slowly practicing it.
Not only do they do their own business, they also take business from disaster victims outside.
This was also inspired by Yan Laoer and others.
Men can sell carts for money, so why don't they steam steamed buns in exchange for more food and water?
The price set by Yan Laoer, one pound of noodles and one pound of water in exchange for seven large steamed buns, was only for people in the village, but for people outside, they added half a catty to the water and gave them nine large steamed buns.
You don't make much money, it's just hard money.
But as more people came to exchange, the grain bags filled with noodles gradually became taller.
The women feel happy and feel more energetic when they work.
Many of the victims hid money. During their frequent walks, they discovered the Yan family's fragrant pancakes.
Yan Laoer, a talkative man, is very important among the victims.
Whatever he said, no matter whether it was useful or not, everyone should keep it in mind.
Make yourself clean and fresh...
Not easy to get sick!
Then look at the people in the village, they are really clean.
He lowered his head and looked at himself, then at his family, and a bunch of smelly companions...
When someone came to find him, Yan Laoer took Sanbao up the mountain to transport water.
Li Xuemei took Daya and the women in the village to prepare rations for the journey.
Yan Xiangheng was patrolling around the team.
In the Yan family, only Yan Huaiwen, a scholar, is here.
The visitor carefully spoke out his request.
Yan Huaiwen pondered for a moment and said: "This thing was made by the second brother of the family. It took a lot of effort. It is no worse than what is sold in ordinary stores. I have never sold it before, so I don't know how much it should cost. If you have bought it before, it can be the same price."
"
The man happily put down a broken piece of silver and took the special-shaped fragrant pancake handed over by the scholar.
I was a little confused at first, but I smelled it and rubbed it gently in my hands.
His face showed joy.
Although the shape is strange, it is indeed better than the ones I bought in the store before, and it is smooth and not dry.
After the man left, Yan Huaiwen picked up the broken silver.
As soon as you put it in the palm of your hand, you will know the weight.
Eight coins.
He has been at the top for so long that he has long forgotten what the market price is.
It turns out that this fragrant snack can be sold for eight coins in the store.
If Tianyou knew about it, I don’t know how happy he would be.
Thinking of this, Yan Huaiwen raised the corners of his lips and put away the broken piece of silver.
He had some expectations.
Every time Tianyou receives money, his expression is very... interesting.
Let him enjoy it and want to give it again and again.
…
Yan Yu came back with several children.
The Boy Scouts completed their mission well today, but the one who performed particularly well should be the child who pulled out someone who jumped in line.
There is no doubt that the children rated him as the top performer.
The things promised by Yan Xiaoer's father have not yet been filled into their public warehouse, and nothing can be sent out at the moment.
Therefore, the credit for this time will be recorded first.
All the children who participated in this task made a note of each one. Yan Xiaoer said that if you save more, you can get a big credit.
The children completed a task and were very happy.
He came back very proudly carrying a wooden stick... helping his family clean up their belongings.
From a majestic boy scout to a small laborer at home, the transition is so natural.
Yan Yu brought a few back and wanted to exchange them for work points.
Only two of them had five work points in their names, and the rest were shared by each other and planned to exchange copybooks and use them together.
Yan Yu listened to their discussion about who should use which work points and how to allocate time. The two children who had been kidnapped and had five work points changed their minds and planned to follow their example in doing the same.
I silently gave the children a thumbs up.
Well done, picking up the wool in front of her.
However, she doesn't mind.
Several children chose to change their copybooks.
He also asked emphatically which words were in their names.
Fortunately, Yan Yu reserved a lot of vacancies and filled in their names one by one.
Ahem, I don’t know if I don’t look at it, but once I look at it, there are a lot of repetitions.
Children in the village are called by their nicknames regardless of their first names. Only when they become adults and register in the register will they have formal names. It is just a simple distinction of surname plus rank.
Cui Langzhong's eldest son and second son are among the few people with complicated names.
Big Gouzi’s brother was originally named Cui Duzhong, and Little Gouzi’s brother was named Cui Gegen.
Yan Yu remembered it immediately!
He wrote down the names of the two brothers, brother Dagouzi, no, brother Duzhong, carefully held up the copybook and left.
Brother Pueraria followed closely behind.
Some of the other children are not interested.
"Yan Xiaoer, please leave this place empty for us first. When we get back to you, we can ask our parents to give us a good name. Can you write it down?"
"Okay!" Yan Yu responded happily.
Liang Fengnian stood behind her, like a little follower.
He is somewhat silent in front of other children and speaks very little.
When I heard such a request, I hesitated to speak.
After the children took their copybooks and left,
Liang Fengnian said: "Little brother, can their parents figure it out?"
Yan Yu turned to look at him: "This is not something we should worry about."
"What I want to say is that we can actually find a few words and let them pick from them."
"not good!"
The sudden sound startled Liang Fengnian.
The two children looked over at the same time and saw Yan Huaiwen dusting off the dust on his body and looking like he had just been rummaging under the car for something.
"Uncle, are you looking for something?" Yan Yu asked nervously.
The uncle never takes care of these miscellaneous things, and the eldest brother and eldest sister only sort out their own baggage.
Most of the Yan family's belongings were put away by their family of three.
She remembered clearly that there were several covert bags, all filled with wheat straw.
There are also rice and white noodles hidden away...all mixed in.
Don't look closely at these things. You will know there is something wrong at a glance.
They were still too relaxed, and they didn't expect that the uncle would suddenly conduct a random inspection!
Yan Huaiwen hummed, "This pen is broken, so I found another one."
As he spoke, he was about to throw away the broken bamboo pen.
"Uncle!" Yan Yu called to him: "Don't throw it away yet. When dad comes back, let him think of ways to see if it can be repaired."
Yan Huaiwen paused and took a closer look at the broken pen in his hand.
The barrel of the pen is a little bent and the hair is bald.
However, if God can repair it, he can still insist on using it.
"Then wait until your father has time and let him take a look." Yan Huaiwen followed suit.
He turned his eyes to Liang Fengnian and said calmly: "A person's name carries the long-term expectations of his parents. It's hard for others to say anything. No matter what word it is, it has its meaning!"
Yan Yu: "Uncle, he is Feng Nian from Uncle Liang's family. I mentioned it to you."
