Chapter 607 Guan Xiaorou's Transformation

Although the straight-line distance from Heifeng Ridge to Xihewan is very short, without the suspension bridge, it would take a long circle to return to the village from Heifeng Ridge, which would take more than a day at the fastest.

Without Iron Hammer reinforcements, the regular army in Xihewan only had one company of bodyguards left.

Even if there is a fortress, there are too few people.

After hearing Tang Dongdong's reminder, Xiaoyu immediately came to her senses, turned around and ran away.

Tang Dongdong also stood up and followed.

The situation is too dangerous now, and she must get first-hand information.

After the two left, Guan Xiaorou sat silently at the table, recalling every detail of her first half of life.

There was nothing to remember before I met Jin Feng. I was spinning threads every day and starving. My life was like a black and white photo, rough and simple.

After meeting Jin Feng, her life became exciting.

No more cold and hunger, no more beatings and scoldings by brothers and sisters-in-law, no more worries about taxes.

She suddenly changed from a disaster star that everyone despised to a baroness that everyone envied.

If she goes out now, who in the village will not respectfully call her "Madam" when they see her?

Guan Xiaorou knows very well that today's good days are all brought by Jin Feng.

In Guan Xiaorou's heart, Jin Feng is the most important!

And Jinfeng’s roots are in Xihewan!

Laboratory, iron smelting workshop, textile factory, glass factory, cement factory...

These things are so important. If anything goes wrong, Jin Feng will be seriously injured!

Thinking of this, Guan Xiaorou's eyes gradually became sharp.

Before Jin Feng left, he asked her to take care of her home. She would never let the bandits rush into Xihewan at all costs!

Guan Xiaorou sat in front of the table like this for half an hour.

Then he seemed to have made some kind of decision, shook his fists, and walked out of the house.

"lady!"

Aju who was guarding the door was slightly stunned when she saw Guan Xiaorou.

She has known Guan Xiaorou for a long time, and after Jin Feng left, she became Guan Xiaorou's personal bodyguard, and the two were inseparable.

A Ju is very familiar with Guan Xiaorou.

But at this time, she felt that Guan Xiaorou was a little strange.

There is no change in appearance from before. She is still wearing a long coarse cloth dress and only a simple hairpin on her head.

What changes is the status.

The previous Guan Xiaorou was like a little white rabbit, timid and gentle.

But at this time, his steps were firm and his eyes were filled with madness.

The Guan Xiaorou that A Ju usually sees is completely different!

"Ah Ju, where is Dongdong?" Guan Xiaorou asked.

"I think I went to the textile factory." Aju replied.

"Call her over here," Guan Xiaorou said, "Also Xiaoyu, Third Master, the village chief, and Uncle Zhao are all here too!"

These people are probably the busiest people in the village right now. Aju couldn't help but glance at Guan Xiaorou again.

Seeing that Guan Xiaorou's eyes were firm, she didn't say anything, nodded in agreement, and went to arrange for her men to find someone.

There is only a wall between the textile factory and Jin Feng's house, so Tang Dongdong can come over as soon as possible.

As soon as he entered the door, he asked: "Xiaorou, I'm in a meeting. If you need something, tell me quickly!"

"Wait a minute, Xiaoyu, the village chief and others are here to talk together." Guan Xiaorou poured a cup of tea for Tang Dongdong and pushed it over.

Tang Dongdong was anxious when he came in just now and didn't notice anything unusual about Guan Xiaorou. Now he heard that the tone of Guan Xiaorou's words was wrong, so he looked over seriously.

Tang Dongdong knew Guan Xiaorou better than A Ju, and immediately noticed that something was wrong with Guan Xiaorou.

He stepped forward and held Guan Xiaorou's hand, and asked softly: "Xiaorou, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"I'm fine." Guan Xiaorou shook her head.

Tang Dongdong was about to speak when Xiaoyu, the old village chief, Guan Sanye and Zhao Laoshan came in together.

"Madam, Director Tang, what happened to Lao Tian is all my fault!"

The old village chief thought that Guan Xiaorou came to him to ask for guilt. As soon as he came up, he lowered his head and admitted his mistake: "Madam, I admit that she wants to be beaten and punished, but this matter has nothing to do with Xiaoyu..."

"Village Chief, your fault will be taken care of when the head of the family comes back."

Guan Xiaorou interrupted the old village chief: "I came to you not because of this matter."

"What's that?" asked the old village chief.

Guan Xiaorou did not answer him, but turned to look at Xiaoyu: "Did Dongdong guess right just now? Are there bandits around our village?"

"Yes!" Xiaoyu nodded: "Six bands of bandits were originally operating in Nanshan Township and Liudian Township, but an hour ago, they suddenly rushed directly to our village, and then the suspension bridge was burned down!"

"How many of them are there?"

"The largest group has more than 200 people, and the smallest group has more than 80 people. The total number of the six bandits is about 800!"

"How far is the nearest bandit group from our village?"

"There are less than twenty miles left. Judging from their current speed, they will be there in two hours."

"Two hours..."

Guan Xiaorou pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Tang Dongdong: "I will ask Wan Yuhong to send a batch of crossbows to the textile factory later. From now on, everyone must be vigilant. Every female worker who can shoot must have a crossbow in her hand.

, if bandits come, they must protect the village as soon as possible!"

"Okay!" Tang Dongdong nodded, and then asked: "Do you want to stop work?"

"No need," Guan Xiaorou shook her head and said, "If work stops, they all have to go home. The gathering speed will definitely not be as fast as when they work in the factory. If they fall asleep at night, the gathering speed will be even slower."

"That makes sense!" Tang Dongdong nodded.

After explaining Tang Dongdong, Guan Xiaorou turned to look at the three village chiefs: "Village chief, Third Grandpa, Uncle Zhao, please notify all workers at the construction site and kiln factory to stop work!"

"Why stop work?" Guan Sanye asked.

"There are not enough bodyguards, so the male workers have to form a tiger-fighting team to patrol the village, and they will still be paid. If bandits come, they have to assist the bodyguards in fighting the bandits!"

Guan Xiaorou said: "Tell them, this time is related to the life and death of our village, and all men cannot back down, otherwise they will get out of Xihewan now!"

But if they perform well this time, I will also ask someone to write it down, and when the boss comes back, I will definitely ask the boss to reward them heavily!"

"Understood!" It was the first time for the three village chiefs to see Guan Xiaorou speak so sternly, and they nodded quickly.

"Then get to work quickly!"

Guan Xiaorou sent Tang Dongdong and the three village chiefs out of the house, but kept Xiaoyu behind.

"Sister-in-law, is there anything else?" Xiaoyu asked.

"Immediately send a letter to Zhong Ling'er and ask her to withdraw all the escorts from Guangyuan and other counties!"

"Withdraw all, what will happen to the Chamber of Commerce?" Xiaoyu asked.

"People from the Chamber of Commerce withdraw together."

"What should we do about the store?" Xiaoyu asked, "It's so messy now and no one is guarding the store. Everything inside will definitely be stolen."

"Ignore the store for now!" Guan Xiaorou said: "If the store is gone, we can still open it again. The most important thing now is to save the village no matter what!"
