Chapter 192 Suspicious

Bai Ling was involved in the whole process of making traps at home.

The outermost line of defense is the thorny trees. Bai Ling asked people to sprinkle a lot of gunpowder on them. Whether they want to cut through the thorny trees or burn them all with fire, the gunpowder will work.

The second layer of defense is a trap, which is more than one meter wide. Inside, there are spikes cut from wooden sticks that are more than an inch long. It will not kill anyone, but it will definitely hurt anyone who falls inside.

The third layer of defense is made of mud and wooden thorns on the wall. Inside is a medicine that will numb the blood. Without the antidote, you will not be able to move for at least twelve hours.

The fourth floor is inside the courtyard. There are some traps two feet away from the wall. The sharp weapons placed inside are even sharper. Anyone who falls down will either die or be maimed.

Different obstacles have also been set up in each residential yard or in front of the warehouse, and the Bai family servants cannot guarantee that they can completely avoid them.

Not only that, Bai Ling also equipped everyone with two packs of medicine, one pack of drugs and one pack of anesthetics, reserved for the final counterattack.

While the Bai family was busy setting up traps, Bai Dashu and a group of people had just arrived at Nanshan Village.

"Bai Dashu, how dare you lie to me!" Seeing that the Bai family had built their own high platform for watching the wind, and there were three guards patrolling it back to back, the leader pulled out a dagger and put it on Bai Dashu's neck, intending to kill someone.

All.

After believing Bai Dashu's words, the group of people walked all the way towards Nanshan.

Because Bai Dashu had put all the banknotes from selling the house in the inn, this group of people had an advantage. After spending one night eating flower wine and buying thick cotton-padded jackets, there was not much money left.

You must know that the influx of disaster victims has caused prices to rise, but houses and other properties have a tendency to drop in price. Many people who rent shops want to close their doors to avoid disaster.

It would take several days to make a carriage from Fucheng to Nanshan Village. These victims rarely had enough money along the way, but they did not dare to spend all the remaining money, so they walked all the way.

Sometimes when you encounter a master who seems to be able to rob you, you will be delayed for a while.

In this way, this group of people arrived in Wufu Town later than other refugees who simply escaped.

Afraid that Bai Dashu was lying, the leader spent another day inquiring about the third room. When they arrived at Nanshan Village, this was the scene.

"Brother, you have misunderstood. How dare I lie to you? Didn't brother ask about it in the town? Look at this yard, how grand it is. It's such a big piece of land, and there are three bedrooms! Over there

The two large yards are the three-room workshop."

Bai Dashu was so frightened that his two legs trembled. He touched the sweat beads on his forehead and said flatteringly:

"It's at the back of the house. The newly added place at the back is specially built for embroiderers. There are almost a hundred or so embroiderers in there alone! Those little ladies, their embroidery work is all in vain.

Those who are clean are rare. Brothers marry a few girls from the Bai family, and make a few embroiderers live happily. They can also make money for them, which is a blessing that many people cannot ask for."

The leader looked at the brother who had gone to inquire. Seeing him nodding, he knew that Bai Dashu was not lying. He put away the dagger and slapped Bai Dashu on the face a few times.

Seeing Bai Dashu sitting on the ground in fright, the leader was a little satisfied and ordered: "Our brothers came all the way here and missed many opportunities to make money. Now I will give you a chance to show off and invite the brothers to go to your house to rest.

When the time comes, your share of the benefits will be indispensable."

Bai Dashu's face turned pale. He wanted the third room to be unlucky, but he didn't want to involve himself.

At least until these people succeed, Bai Dashu is unwilling to take any risks.

"Well... my family is small and I'm afraid I can't accommodate so many brothers." Bai Dashu said with a bitter face, and what he said was the truth.

"You have so much money, why are you still here crying about poverty?" The leader kicked the white tree in dissatisfaction and cursed: "Aren't country people the most hospitable? Just say that we want to do business with you in partnership, how many people are you looking for?

We are still worried that we can’t be accommodated in this family?”

His ribs were sore from being kicked so hard by the leader. Bai Dashu no longer dared to say no, so he had no choice but to lead a group of people towards the village.

In order to observe the terrain, the leader deliberately walked past the third room, and the people in the third room naturally got the news.

"Why do I find it so strange that Bai Dashu brought so many people into the village at this time?" Bai Wei frowned.

"How were those people dressed? Did they come here on foot? What did they bring?" Bai Ling was also suspicious, so he asked the servant who came to report.

"What they are wearing is made of satin material. It looks like they were bought in a ready-made clothing store. They don't fit very well. They didn't show any courtesy or anything. They all came here on foot. Just by looking at their outfits, they look like rich people. But.

…”

The concierge scratched his head and thought for a while before saying:

"My servant just felt that these people looked awkward and naughty. Moreover, when they passed by our house, they looked into the prince's house. After walking far away, they still looked back and muttered, but they were too far away to hear them.

.”

Hearing this, Bai Ling's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he signaled Bai Shao to give him a reward, and ordered: "You have observed very carefully, and do a good job in the future. Go back and talk to the concierge, and be more careful, especially when you see someone."

stranger."

"Yes, I thank you for your reward." The concierge thanked him with a happy face and left.

"Bai Shao, go to the kitchen and give instructions. During this period, prepare more delicious food for the concierge and nursing staff on duty, especially at night. Send hot soup or hot noodles every hour. Come back.

Say hello to Aunt Fu, there is an extra one hundred yuan in the kitchen this month." Bai Ling ordered.

"Yes." Bai Shao accepted the order and left, thinking that he would take the opportunity to win over his master's hearts.

"Dad, let's go to the village. I feel uneasy about Bai Dashu bringing so many people into the village." Bai Ling said with a frown.

"I'll go with you too." Bai Wei felt very depressed at home and immediately raised her hand.

"Then, Third Sister, let's go with Dad. Let's say hello to the village chief about this. Someone will pay attention to those people. Let's not stretch our hands too far, so as not to make people feel uncomfortable."

After Bai Ling finished speaking, seeing Bai Sanshu nodding, he turned to Bai Wei and said:

"Let me prepare some food. Aren't the cousins ​​of the village chief's uncle's family back? Bring some snacks or something for my little nephew. Don't go there empty-handed."

"I know, we have never been to our house empty-handed." Bai Wei said this and immediately stood up, not forgetting to tell Bai Sanshu to wait for her.

Bai Sanshu looked at Bai Ling who hesitated to speak, and his honest face wrinkled into a ball.

"Dad, do you think we think too much?" Bai Ling asked.

"Although your uncle is a little selfish, it's not without importance. Besides, those people who went to the village are going to settle down in their old houses. He can't just bring everyone to his home, right?" Bai Sanshu didn't want to believe Bai Dashu.

Will do things that are not allowed by God.

"Your eldest brother only values ​​himself. Our family was almost harmed by him several times. You don't remember, do you? Take Bai Xue, but he was betrayed by your eldest brother twice. He is so cruel.

"Master, why is my daughter wrong in suspecting him?" Bai Liu shouted angrily.

Bai Sanshu didn't dare to speak anymore, so he got up and went outside to wait for Bai Wei, so as not to quarrel with Bai Liu.

Bai Ling, on the other hand, looked at Bai Sanshu's back and couldn't tell whether he felt distressed or helpless. He even felt a little disappointed. (To be continued)
