Chapter 47: Slender Monkey, Black Donkey Changes Mind (Part 1)
Someone wanted to kill his benefactor and seize his wife. Guo Cang suppressed the anger in his heart and said calmly, "You entered Sanhu Village. I heard that the bandits there eat delicious food, drink spicy food, eat big fish and meat every meal, and have beautiful women."
woman!"
Hei Lu shook his head, "Brother Cang, that's not a bandit you're talking about, that's an official!"
Thin Monkey said with red eyes, "We used to think that if we became bandits, we could rob whoever we wanted and live a happy life. Who knew, hey!"
Guo Cang was surprised, "Isn't it?"
There were bandits in the past who wanted him to join their gang, saying that if he became a bandit, he could eat as much fish and meat as he wanted.
At that time, his heart was also moved. If he didn't have a wife, children and mother, he would have gone to the mountains and fallen into the grass.
"Afraid of being wiped out by the government, we live in the mountains, and it is difficult to transport food. There are many mouths eating in the mountains, so if we bring a little food up, we will finish it quickly. The boss rations us, and we can only have three bowls of rice per person, half a month.
Only once can we eat meat. Officers and soldiers suppress bandits twice a year, and we have to hide in the mountains twice, each time for at least half a month. During that time, we lack food and clothing. Look how hungry I am.
He is even worse than when he was a thief."
The thin monkey lifted up his tattered linen clothes, his bones were protruding, and his eyes were red.
"It's just that I don't have enough to eat. Every day when I go down the mountain to rob the road, it's like licking blood from the edge of my knife."
The black donkey lifted up his clothes, revealing the scars under his ribs: "Haha, if you rob the people, there is no risk, but even if you kill them, you can't squeeze out a few drops of oil and water. If you rob a wealthy caravan passing by, there will be more oil and water.
But they had a bodyguard with knives and guns in their hands, and they would fight hard. If you don’t see this scar, it was because they were robbing the Hu family’s grain truck and the bodyguard chopped it with a knife. Fortunately, I hid quickly, otherwise I would have died.
They’re all gone. Brother Cang, it’s not easy to be a bandit!”
Guo Cang echoed, "Nothing is easy, but I heard that you are in the mountains and each of you has several wives. The difficulty is worth it!"
"It's worth a damn!"
The thin monkey spat on the ground, "Brother Cang, I'm not afraid of your jokes. I haven't even smelled a woman's scent in the two years I've been on the mountain. It's better than when I was a thief, I stole money from the landlord's house, and I can go to the fence once!"
Black Donkey sighed, "The decent women we robbed on the mountain were all three bosses, and the rest were given to senior bandits. Those of us who went up the mountain late will have to wait for two years, and we are allotted old women who are also ugly."
The thin monkey chuckled, "Don't look at the old woman. There are still bandits in the mountains. As long as a woman is a woman, she can always give birth to a son, so she won't lose her incestuous relationship!"
Guo Cang frowned, "The food is not good, robbery is dangerous, and I don't have a wife. Why are you still doing this?"
"This is not also
Is there nothing we can do?"
The black donkey smiled sadly.
In order to treat my mother, I sold five acres of my family's land. I couldn't cure my mother, and I had no money to bury her, so I had to sell my house to the landlord.
He became a gangster with no land or house, and being a thief was precarious.
I heard that it was good to be a bandit, so I went up to the mountains to get rid of weeds. As a result, my life became even more miserable.
Besides being a thief, I don’t know how to do anything else!
The thin monkey sighed, "My parents died early. I grew up eating the food of hundreds of families. I couldn't steal from people in the village, so I could only steal from far away places. The name of the thief spread. Even the landlords in the distance who had their houses stolen came to look for them."
I am forced to go up the mountain. Hey, if you can live a good life, whoever wants to be a bandit will be beheaded sooner or later."
Looking at the appearance of the two of them, Guo Cang's heart trembled.
He was like this half a month ago. If it weren't for his benefactor, he wouldn't be here today.
No matter who wants to harm his benefactor, he will make that person pay a heavy price!
Guo Cang thought for a while, "Follow me into the village!"
"Enter the village!"
Black Donkey was startled, "Brother Cang, it's daytime now. If we really want to steal them, we have to wait until night. It's too dangerous now!"
Shouhou also advised, "Yes, Brother Cang, we thieves put safety first!"
Guo Cang strode forward, "Believe me, just follow me!"
The black donkey and the skinny monkey followed nervously.
The fishing team is back!
Guo Cang pointed and introduced, "This is from the fishing team. They have a monthly salary, three meals a day, and three ounces of meat for every meal. There is also a bonus at the end of the month. In total, the monthly salary is no less than
Two strikes!"
Black Donkey chuckled, "Brother Cang, don't be ridiculous!"
The thin monkey also looked unbelieving.
There are so many people in the countryside, not to mention two dollars a month, three hundred dollars a month is enough to break the bank!
Who would be stupid enough to spend two thousand dollars to hire someone?
Guo Cang continued, "I have to take care of food every day, three meals a day, three ounces of fish at noon, meat buns, egg soup, flatbread, and dry rice."
The soap factory is in operation, and there are oil residues every day, and oil residue buns are made every night.
The black donkey grinned and bared his yellow teeth: "Brother Cang, stop joking!"
The thin monkey hummed, "How can we know what a landlord is like? He is stingy and stingy. He wants more people to work, but also wants less people to eat, and the wages are so high. How can anyone care about a lot of money and such a good meal?"
!”
Without explaining, Guo Cang took the two of them to Wang Yuan's house. The fish sales team returned from the county seat and squatted in front of the door to rest, waiting for dinner.
Three teams of thirty people all gathered together to chat and brag about what was happening in the city and market towns, with happy and bright smiles on their faces.
The thin monkey and the black donkey were stunned, feeling that these people seemed really happy.
But farmers in the countryside have nothing to be happy about!
Guo Cang suddenly said, "They are fish sellers. They earn two thousand dollars a month, and have two meals of meat every day, each meal weighing half a catty. They also have a car when they go to the county town. They work for two days and have one day off. They also have people to teach them martial arts."
.”
The black donkey frowned and said, "Brother Cang, the more you talk, the more outrageous you are. How can a landlord give a man a car to work for, and let him work for two days and have a day off, and find someone to teach him martial arts? If so, this landlord must be a fool.
Either the Bodhisattva reincarnates."
The thin monkey grinned, "Brother Cang is just kidding us. How can there be such a person!"
Guo Cang didn't explain, "Let's go, it's time for them to start dinner, I'll take you to try it!"
Hei Donkey trembled, "Brother Cang, you are so brave now. There are so many people and it's daytime. Let's go steal like this. Aren't we afraid of being caught!"
Shouhou also turned pale, "Brother Cang, safety first, steal after dark!"
"Don't be afraid, I have people here, we can eat openly!"
"Well, I haven't seen you for two years. Brother Cang is getting more and more powerful. He has even buried his spies in the fat sheep's house!"
The eyes of the black donkey and the thin monkey flashed with admiration, and they followed behind with their heads held high.
In the large canteen set up by two sheds, five cooks were busy working with their faces red.
Black Donkey was surprised and said, "Skinny Monkey, look at the women here, how come they are all so white!"
Thin Monkey frowned and said, "Not only women, look at these people, they are all fair and fair. Even Brother Cang is much fairer than us!"
Pots of egg soup, big meat dumplings, fried fish, fried radishes, dry millet rice were brought out, and the rice was fragrant with coriander and meat!
Gulu!
The black donkey and the thin monkey swallowed their saliva and looked at a group of people in shock
People took bowls and queued up to get rice, vegetables, meat, soup, and meat buns. They were immediately shocked.
It’s so good for working people!
Guo Cang urged from the side, "Why are you so stunned? Get ready to eat!"
"good!"
The black donkey and the thin monkey rushed to the place where the dishes and chopsticks were placed, but they were stopped by Guo Cang. "You must be hygienic and wash your hands before eating. You must wash them with soap!"
"Soap?"
"About hygiene?"
The black donkey and the thin monkey were confused and were pulled to the big water tank by Guo Cang!
Guo Cang filled a basin of water and showed the two of them how to use soap with hand gestures.
As soon as the two of them washed, the basin of water turned black, the two faces, and the four hands turned white.
The thin monkey was shocked: "Black donkey, you have turned white!"
"ah!"
He lay down in the water tank and took a look. He only saw a slightly dark face in the reflection. Black Donkey was shocked, "Here I go, it turns out I'm not dark. I didn't wash it clean before. Brother Cang, where did you buy this soap? How much does it cost? I don't know.
I want to buy one!”
Guo Cang shook his head, "This is for the wife of a rich family. It should cost at least three or four thousand dollars per dollar!"
"What, the rich lady uses three or four pieces of soap, but the boss here actually uses it for work. This, this is simply!"
The two of them didn't know what to say, and there was an indescribable feeling in their hearts.
"Don't be in a daze, let's get some food!"
Guo Cang was the vice-captain of the purchasing team and could bring people selling grassroots to eat. This was Wang Yuan's permission. The five cooks didn't say anything and happily prepared meals for the two of them!
"It's really a meat bun. There's a lot of grease and there's too much stuffing!"
"And this fish is actually fried in oil, and it tastes so delicious!"
"The taste of this radish is also different, much better than the ones in our copycat!"
"There are really eggs in this egg soup. This life is so good, even better than Chinese New Year!"
The two devoured the food, their mouths full of oil, but they pricked up their ears as if they heard something, with expressions of surprise and disbelief on their faces.
Guo Cang watched silently from the side. When the two of them put down their jobs, he said, "Black donkey, skinny monkey, being a bandit is so hard, I say, don't do it. Stay here with my young master. You can eat well, be safe, and be safe."
If you get paid, if you work for two or three years, you can buy a house, land, and a wife!"
