Wang Ada was also very excited. He didn't even know how he left Su Shi. Until he returned to the tent in a daze, Wang Can, Wang Tong and others gathered around him, looking expectantly.
To Wang Ada.
Everyone just looked at Wang Ada, no one asked anything, and there was no talk. From this point of view, they were very well-behaved.
In fact, as Wang Ada said, they, Wangzhuang behind the mountains, were the descendants of veterans of the army who fought in hundreds of battles. Because the Song Dynasty conquered the world, they went to Huainan to settle down after they had nothing to fight. Although decades have passed,
Several generations have changed, but there are still rules. We know what should be said and what should not be asked.
Everyone was waiting for news about Wang Ada, and at this moment they felt a little uneasy.
Although they consider themselves young, strong and capable, they are too poor and have been hungry for many days. They are all sallow and skinny. It will take some time for their bodies to recover as before.
People like them are useless for the time being. Can the young man in white like them?
In this day and age, as long as you have money, it is easy to buy some work as a waiter. There are special dental shops in the capital that are responsible for such things.
Since you can get it with money, why do you need them?
This is what everyone is worried about. Now that Wang Ada is back, Wang Can and others know that the time to decide life and death has come.
"The young master refused." Wang Ada said as soon as he entered the tent.
"Ah...hey."
"We should have thought of it a long time ago. Apart from our kung fu and strength, we don't know anything. It is normal that we are not wanted."
"Yes, in the final analysis, we still have no ability, and it is reasonable for others to look down on us."
The Song Dynasty emphasized literature and suppressed martial arts. Even among the people, people would not be proud of their knowledge of kung fu. On the contrary, they would feel inferior when meeting scholars. This was caused by the influence of the general environment. It was like a certain level of separation.
, having an iron job is a good thing. Those businessmen who take the lead in doing business will be looked down upon by others.
Wang Can and others lowered their heads and sighed one by one, and some people couldn't help but start to worry about their future livelihood.
Especially after eating two full meals today, this feeling is so good. Now that they are allowed to continue to go hungry, they don't want to face it anymore.
Seeing that his children were all crestfallen, Wang Ada laughed and said, "I haven't finished my words yet. The young master refused the defection of young people like you, but demanded that all of us from Zhuangzi should defect together. What's missing?"
He won't accept any of them."
"ah?"
"What?"
"Isn't this possible?"
Everyone showed surprised expressions at this moment. The development of things was completely different from what they imagined.
It would be understandable if the young master wants young men like them. After all, they have strength and can fight for the young master at critical moments, which is somewhat useful. But everyone in the village wants them. What does this mean?
Apart from their young descendants, what can others do?
Even the simplest farming requires effort, so young people like them should be the main ones.
Everyone looked puzzled and couldn't figure it out. Seeing it in Wang Ada's eyes, he also sighed softly: "Do you think I can figure it out? But doesn't this further prove that the young master has a kind heart? Even us
He won’t dislike these useless people and won’t ignore us. So, isn’t it our destiny to have people like this by his side?”
"Ah, yes."
"Yes, yes, everyone wants it. Young Master Dashan is simply a living Bodhisattva."
"The young master is a living Bodhisattva. Think about it, we have traveled thousands of miles all the way from Huainan, but no one has ever taken care of us. We only met the young master, and we only had two full meals. Just because of this kindness
, I, Wang Tong, will follow Master Ding from now on."
"Me too, I'm also with Master Ding."
In the simple tent, everyone was talking excitedly involuntarily, venting all their inner excitement.
On the carriage not far away, Su Shi had already called the lone wolf, "You are going to have a hard time, go and see if there is any place nearby where you can hide people. Remember, it is a place where hundreds of people can be hidden. That kind of place."
Even if you can survive, there will be enough water, and people will not easily discover where you are."
Since he wanted to take in these more than 400 people, Su Shi had to make some more considerations.
It is unrealistic to take these people to the capital. They can't do much if they go to Bianliang, so it is better to resettle them on the spot.
Besides, they have traveled thousands of miles all the way, and each of them is very weak. They also need to take a good rest and recuperate their health first.
Then all this requires a living soil and a living place. Looking at the mountains stretching in all directions, Su Shi wanted to find a good place here.
After the lone wolf got the mission, he plunged into the night. Su Shi was left behind to open the faith point and start thinking about what kind of things to come up with to help them rebuild a habitat.
It was a sleepless night. Except for the heartless children, the elderly, women and children soon learned that the young man in white wanted to help them.
When they thought that someone finally took care of them, and that they could finally have enough to eat and no longer have to run around, many people were moved to tears. They also had a firm idea in their hearts, that is, they should repay Bai Yi well.
Young Master, you must do your best to repay Young Master.
Time seemed to pass very slowly. Not many people could fall asleep that night. When it dawned, everyone took action. After they gained some strength, they began to fetch water and collect water on behalf of Lou Yang and others.
Dry firewood and start lighting the fire to prepare breakfast.
After Lou Yang and others got up, they saved a lot of effort, took out the rice and vegetables, put them into the pot directly, and everyone had another hearty breakfast.
Su Shi slept until the sun fully rose, then got up.
Su Shi didn't know that although everyone was busy outside the carriage, no one disturbed him.
Everyone walked around the carriage and tried not to make any noise. Even if there were a few naughty children who made noise while running naughty, they would be caught by the adults and whipped until they promised not to happen.
The sound is what matters.
After Su Shi had a good sleep, the first thing he did when he woke up was to check the faith points, and he made more than three hundred dollars.
Obviously, all adults know how to be grateful and regard Su Shi as a benefactor and the most trustworthy person. The few points should belong to children. They are forgetful. The benefits of yesterday, after a good sleep,
They will all forget it.
Sitting on the wooden chair, as soon as Su Shi got out of the carriage, Wang Ada, who had been paying attention to this place, came forward with the entire clan of 418 people, and then they all knelt down on the ground, far away.
From a distance, it is full of human heads, which is quite spectacular.
"Thank you, Master, for your kindness. We will never forget it."
The voice was quite neat, and it was obvious that it must have been taught by Wang Ada. This scene made Su Shi a little confused.
In his last life, it was true that he was a senior executive of a certain treasure, but he actually didn't have many soldiers under his command. Now suddenly hundreds of people were kneeling down, and he was really uncomfortable with it.
"Okay, everyone, get up quickly. Let's eat first. After we're full, we'll figure out what to do next." Su Shi, with a smile on his face, led everyone to the iron pot, and soon after he started eating.
The sound filled every footstep in this open space.
The lone wolf came back very quickly. He came back just as he was eating breakfast. Judging from his red eyeballs, he had not slept all night.
"Master, we found the place." Lone Wolf took the bowl of porridge handed over by Yue Siling and came to Su Shi.
"Oh, tell me." Su Shi nodded.
After breakfast, the women stayed behind to clean up. Wang Ada, Wang Can and Wang Tong came to Su Shi, looking like they were listening to orders.
"Uncle Wang." Su Shi looked at Wang Ada and said this with a smile.
"Oh, just call me Ah Da, but you don't dare to call me that." Wang Ah Da waved his hands repeatedly.
"Hey, you are older than my father, so it is appropriate to call you Uncle Wang. Well, this matter has been settled, and I will talk to you about business. Well, I sent someone to check last night
After passing by, there is a Shangcang Village nearby, and behind the village is Shangcang Mountain. The forest there is dense, and there is a small river running through it. The water source is not a problem. As long as everyone works harder, we can carve out a place to live there.
There is no problem..."
Shangcang Mountain is a good place that Lone Wolf found overnight, and it is also the temporary shelter prepared by Su Shi for Wangzhuang behind the mountain.
Again, the people of Shanhou Wangzhuang have been wandering for too long, and their bodies are about to collapse. If they don't take care of themselves, they won't be able to do anything.
"Go to the mountain?" Wang Can, Wang Tong and others all looked puzzled. They didn't understand. Aren't you going to follow the young master? Why did you go up the mountain all of a sudden?
"Don't make any noise, listen to the young master." Wang Ada, on the other hand, was very calm, but with a glare, the young disciples like Wang Can did not dare to speak.
"Haha, here's the thing..." Su Shi smiled and said his thoughts in front of everyone.
It was impossible for so many people to enter the capital. It was Su Shi's first time to go there, and he didn't even have a place to stay. At least he had to wait for him to take root there first before he could consider bringing others there.
Moreover, everyone is indeed in poor health. There is still more than three hundred miles to go from here to the capital. How many days will it take to travel with these people?
If something went wrong along the way, Su Shi would not forgive himself.
