This is a middle-aged man. It can be seen that he is very strong and full of muscles.
However, this person's condition was not very good at this moment. His whole body was shaking, his face was pale, and he looked like he was sick.
He was carrying a huge stone and wanted to move it to another place. However, he fell to the ground due to lack of strength and the stone fell down.
When the steward saw this, he felt no peace of mind and just whipped out the cold whip.
Others gathered around, but the steward was not afraid at all. He picked up the whip and waved it twice. He had already figured out the character and temper of these people.
Although he is only one person, his status is not low and he has a strong background.
Moreover, he is in charge of these people's wages. If they offend him, these people will not be able to get good results.
This is a small town near Tailin City. This road will lead directly to Tailin City. It is an important way for this small town to connect to Tailin City. Therefore, everyone pays special attention to it and wants to build it as soon as possible.
Although Bai Yutian was not in a hurry to accept the completed work, and he was not stingy with the wages of the workers, he took out almost all the property of the King of Shu and distributed it to everyone.
However, the phenomenon of corrupt officials and exploitation of people at the bottom can never be eradicated.
At this moment, almost all the officials in important positions have just been selected. It is the time to work hard and strive for improvement.
However, the petty officials under them are not very obedient. People die for wealth and birds die for food. In the face of such huge wealth, many people cannot maintain their true intentions.
Bai Yutian and the others disguised themselves as a caravan, and the whole team only consisted of four people.
The group's trip to Hidden Sword Villa was also kept secret. Apart from Bai Yutian and the other four, no more than ten people knew about it.
When Bai Yutian saw this, he immediately asked Dianwei to stop, then got out of the car to check.
When the steward saw Bai Yutian and others getting out of the car, he didn't pay too much attention. He just thought that Bai Yutian and others were a passing caravan.
"Brother, human beings are made of flesh and blood. I heard him say that you made people work for five days and five nights in a row, and also deducted wages. Isn't it a bit too much!"
Bai Yutian glared angrily, pointed at the steward and said.
When the steward heard Bai Yutian's words, he couldn't help but become happy.
When people around saw Bai Yutian trying to meddle in other people's business, they all stopped and stood around to watch.
Some people who knew the identity of the manager couldn't help but worry about Bai Yutian.
He clapped his hands, and the supervisors and stewards gathered around him, led by this steward.
Although he has a fat head, big ears, and a fat body, he does not seem to be of low status.
"Hey, outsider, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, otherwise don't blame me for being rude. I also told you that the working hours and wages here are all set by me, and I can do whatever I want with them. I think
I’ll give you as much as you want.”
After saying that, the fat steward glanced at everyone around him with an arrogant expression.
Although everyone was unhappy, they did not dare to resist him.
"Oh, then aren't you afraid that their work intensity will be too high and people will lose their lives?" Bai Yutian then asked.
At this time, the fat man was already a little impatient. He waved his hand to Bai Yutian and said, "I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
The man who was beaten just now, when he saw Bai Yutian, he ran towards him as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, "My benefactor, please help me. This Zeng Tiande, relying on his family background, abused us here and always deducted wages from us.
Even if you want to report it, there is no way to do so!"
Bai Yutian frowned. He found that he still imagined this world too well. In fact, no matter in any era, it is difficult to avoid such a thing happening.
People at the bottom are easily bullied and exploited.
The man named Zeng Tiande became even more furious when he heard this, and the whip in his hand made a gesture to whip the man.
This time he exerted all his strength. If he was whipped, given the man's current state, it would definitely be a disaster.
However, the whip he pulled off was caught in Dian Wei's hand. Zeng Tiande tried to move again, but found that the whip did not move at all.
"Go on." Bai Yutian gave the man a reassuring look and motioned for him to continue.
The man swallowed, nodded, and said: "Zeng Tiande's grandfather is the mayor of Sanshui Town, and the Zeng family is equivalent to the local emperor of Sanshui Town. To build the road this time, they mobilized almost the entire youth of Sanshui Town.
In our prime, we are not even allowed to plant the fields anymore.”
"They even compressed time, reduced our wages, and continued to exploit us," the man cried.
In the past five days and five nights, he had only rested for less than five hours. Many times he didn't even have enough to eat, and now he even spoke intermittently.
Originally, they had just completed the construction of other buildings for Sanshui Town, and when they were about to take a rest, an order to build roads came from Tailin City.
Therefore, Zeng Tiande did not give everyone time to rest, but directly asked everyone to start building the road, intending to complete it ahead of schedule.
As for the wages allocated to the workers, most of them were embezzled by the Zeng family, so where could they be given to them?
When the man finished speaking, Bai Yutian was already furious and furious.
This place is not far from Tailin City. Strictly speaking, it still belongs to the boundary of Tailin City, which is equivalent to the foot of the emperor.
He did not expect that someone would dare to do such an act under the Emperor's feet.
"It's unreasonable to arrest him!" Bai Yutian said angrily.
Dian Wei heard Bai Yutian's anger and used both hands to capture Zeng Tiande.
Zeng Tiandekong had a lot of fat, but he was powerless and could only teach these people who did not dare to resist.
"Let me go quickly. My grandfather is Zeng Liang, the mayor of Sanshui Town. If you dare to attack me, my grandfather will not let you go."
Zeng Tiande moved out of his grandfather at this time, but Bai Yutian still didn't have any fear.
"Although Sanshui Town is just a town, the Zeng family is considered a local emperor here. The so-called strong dragon cannot suppress local snakes. I think these outsiders are in danger."
"But that's not necessarily the case. I think this young man's appearance and temperament are not simple. He might have some background."
Seeing Zeng Tiande being taught a lesson, everyone began to talk about it, guessing the identities of Bai Yutian and others.
Zeng Tiande was still roaring, but Bai Yutian ordered him to slap his face, and Dian Wei slapped him mercilessly. He also hated such people very much.
When everyone saw Zeng Tiande being slapped, they all secretly applauded. As for Zeng Tiande's guards, they wanted to save Dian Wei, but they were not Dian Wei's enemies at all.
Seeing that something was wrong, several people immediately ran away to fetch reinforcements.
