Early in the morning, Liu Jun went to find Gongsun Liang.
"Master, I would like to borrow some people to go to the county seat to find out the news."
Gongsun Liang put down his rice bowl, wiped his mouth with his hand, and then said with a smile: "Last night, I asked the second boss to select suitable people to go to the county. I'm afraid I have already contacted the spies in the county.
.”
"This is really..." Liu Jun took a deep breath and bowed deeply to Gongsun Liang, "I have received the great master's kindness, and I will never forget to repay it in the future."
"Everywhere, from now on, we will all be brothers eating from the same pot. If a brother is in trouble, he must try his best to help." At this moment, Gongsun Liang's face was full of warmth, and there was no trace of the frightening blood wolf look on his face.
"Speaking of which, you are now the leader of the village. You can't do it without someone under you. Let's go and go to the second master and let him choose some people for you. Maybe it won't be of much help. It's still okay to wave the flag and shout."
"Thank you very much, Chief." Liu Jun thanked him, but he was a little embarrassed: "Master, I am from a small farmer, and I hate to see those ordinary people who have a hard life being bullied, so some things may
I can’t do it.”
Gongsun Liang was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly: "You are too underestimated in my Qingsong Mountain. Do you think the hundreds of people in my Qingsong Mountain need to spend on food every day eating meat, drinking alcohol, and practicing martial arts? How many?
The common people can afford it. The current income in the mountains is basically a cut from the caravans passing by. By plundering on the way, I wasted the boss’s efforts, and I can get some money.”
"So that's it." Liu Jun was relieved. He didn't think much about it yesterday and went straight up the mountain. Now that he heard this, he felt more at ease. At least his conscience would not be wronged.
When he arrived at the second master's house, Liu Jun discovered that the scholar-looking man he had paid close attention to last night turned out to be the second master, who was in charge of personnel, money and food in the village.
Hearing that Liu Jun was looking for subordinates, he was very happy, because the leader raised his subordinates himself, so he did not need to pay for it from the village. After saying hello, forty or fifty people gathered in a short while, all young and strong.
.
Liu Jun was a little confused. The red scarf thieves had been here for so long. It was impossible that there were no old and weak people. We couldn't send them all to die when they were old.
When asked about the second master, he laughed. It turned out that there was a large flat land on the top of Qingsong Mountain, where the elderly, women and children grew some food and vegetables. Liu Jun suddenly felt that Qingsong Mountain was not what he had imagined before.
Bloodthirsty and murderous, it now looks like a settlement that lives in seclusion in the mountains and does not pay taxes to the government.
"Okay, everyone is here." The second master looked a little emotional, "You can see what kind of people you want, but the strong ones have basically been picked out, and the rest are those who had a bad life and poor physical fitness.
"
Liu Jun glanced around and found that he didn't know what was going on. Their eyes were a little bright when they looked at him. Although they were a little confused, Liu Jun didn't think too much. Under the influence of the power of Qi and blood, although his voice was not loud,
But it also made everyone who was waiting hear clearly:
"I'm not old. Although maybe because I have two skills, the leader of the village made me the seventh master, but I don't know anything about the work in the village. I used to be just a boy farming, so the people who followed me
There may not be much money to speak of, it’s probably just enough food and clothing.”
There was a sudden commotion below, and someone laughed:
"At first glance, I see that this baby is a farmer, otherwise the color on his body would not be so correct."
"Haha, my words are so sincere."
"Honest man, aren't we all going up the mountain because we can't make it down? We just need to have enough food and clothing."
"Those who can fight and kill have been transferred away by other leaders a long time ago. The seventh leader came just in time."
Liu Jun didn't know what was going on. He just told the truth and his treatment was even lowered. Why are the people below so active?
Looking back at the second master who had been watching, the second master said in a low voice: "After all, the village is different from other places. Those who can be beaten and killed will live well, and those who cannot be beaten will just survive."
Liu Jun was silent. At this time, someone boldly raised his voice and asked: "The Seventh Master, now all the lucrative jobs have their own owners. I wonder what the Seventh Master is going to lead everyone to do?"
Liu Jun thought for a while and felt that there was nothing to hide: "Whether it is going to the county town or taking a boat to the ferry in the next county, taking the road at the foot of the mountain is the closest. I have a few recipes for making food, so I will build one at the foot of the mountain.
With a few sheds, selling some cheap food and drinks, I should be able to make some money."
Someone hesitated and asked: "We are a copycat here, does anyone dare to eat here?"
"It might be a little difficult at the beginning. It's always a show. When you see a caravan coming, a few brothers come to pretend to be farmers passing by and have a meal in the store. As long as one person believes it, the customers behind will
There will be more and more." Liu Jun explained.
"I know this. Isn't it just a scam? There is no gambling shop like this." Someone shouted excitedly.
"Okay, you old boy, have you gone gambling secretly again? Make sure I don't tell your mother-in-law."
"No, uncle, I might ask you to come with me next time."
Liu Jun quickly mobilized his energy and blood, coughed slightly, and shocked everyone: "Gambling is just for entertainment, but getting obsessed is not a good thing. Enough chatter, if you want to do this job, you need it.
We have a lot of manpower. Once we arrive, business will pick up, and my wife at home can help out if she has nothing to do. If you guys want to go, just sign up for me."
Some people reported their names at that time, and some said they needed to go back and talk to their wives. At last count, there were forty or fifty people in total, and there were more than twenty people who signed up at that time. Among them was Wang Laoer and the one who asked first.
Well, Liu Jun looked at the roster. The man's name was Liu Heizi, and he was a member of the family. Because he had an impression of these two people, he called them over. Each of them was given a tael of silver as start-up capital, and assigned tasks.
They choose the right people on the roster themselves.
One tael of silver can now be exchanged for about 1,100 Tongbao. Depending on the material of the Tongbao, one Tongbao can buy five large steamed buns. The workers at the dock only need 2 to 3 Tongbao for a day's work.
Probably because we had money to open the road, before noon, we saw dozens of people. Some went down the mountain to find a suitable location to build a house, clean up the site, and some went into the forest to cut down trees.
There are many people and strength, and when it gets dark, several logs have been transported down the mountain. At this time, a spy came over:
"The Seventh Master, the leader of the village has invited you."
Liu Jun's eyes lit up. It seemed that news had come from the county.
