It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 26

In Feihu Village, Gao Feihu was sitting under a big tree, still trembling with anger until now.

"It's so shameless. The digging people actually dug up our Feihu Village. No, take my big knife and I will go to them to settle the account."

"Brother calm down, big brother calm down." Gao Feibao pressed him desperately.

"Can I calm my anger, this is obviously going to bully people!" Gao Feihu.

"Everything waits for the military advisor to come back, and everything waits for the military advisor to come back." Gao Feibao.

Gao Fei sat there angrily, feeling his chest whirring like a bellows.

"Do you think it's true, there will be weapons when you go there?"

"And the white flour pancakes."

"Tsk, I'm drooling just thinking about it, or let's try our luck."

Sitting under the big tree, you can hear such discussions from time to time. Although they have tried their best to suppress the sound, it will inevitably reach Gao Feihu's ears.

"Hmph, I don't even have such luxury for a white flour pancake." Gao Feihu snorted coldly.

But Gao Feihu had to admit that although the method of Toad Village was shameless, it was effective. Now that people are floating in the cottage, if people are really poached by Toad Village, what should they do?

"Brother, I have an idea?" Gao Feibao said.

"Hey, you actually have an idea!" Gao Feihu felt that unexpected things happened one after another today.

"Isn't he trying to poach people from us? We'll just go ahead and send some brothers over to eat and drink their food. If there is a chance, we will directly occupy the Toad Village in one fell swoop. Now, there is a lot of food in the Toad Village. ."

After all, Gao Feibao found Gao Feihu looking at him with wide eyes, his face full of incredulity.

"Brother, what's the matter? Could it be that my method is not good?"

"No, I just didn't expect you to know the word "calculate". Gao Feihu.

...

Zhou Xiaoshu is seventeen years old this year, and he is a scoundrel in Feihu Village. His father was a bandit and his mother was a bandit, so he was born a bandit.

The life of the bandit was actually not so good. It was said that he ate a lot of meat and drank a lot of alcohol, and Zhou Xiaoshu had not eaten meat for more than a year. In the past two years, the years have been bad, and many times the farmland in the cottage has no harvest. When there is no food, everyone has to dig wild vegetables all over the mountains and fields. However, it is said that life at the foot of the mountain is even worse. He has to work for the rich man for a whole year and pay various taxes.

These are all what the military adviser said. Zhou Xiaoshu actually didn't even understand what taxation meant.

He's just a little bandit, the smallest kind.

Today, he and the second master of the cottage went to Toad Village to join the team. The second master said that this was a tactic, and it was a countermeasure. In fact, he didn't understand either, he listened to the second master.

It was only when we arrived at Toad Village that we found that the gate of the village was full of people, and many people came to the cottage. The man surnamed Huang sat behind a table and said what to register.

Everyone was queuing up to register, and the second master wanted to jump in the queue, but was blocked back. The second head of the family...sometimes it's funny.

When they were in line, the man surnamed Huang handed over a piece of paper, which was said to be signed. Zhou Xiaoshu can't read, but the second master can read, and he doesn't know much. So he didn't know what was written on it, so he just learned how the person in front drew a circle on the paper, and the circle was not very far, which made Zhou Xiaoshu feel a little embarrassed.

Does drawing a circle mean that you are from the Toad Village? The second master has already said that this time we are breaking into the enemy's interior, no matter what, we must remember that we are from Feihu Village.

As a result, someone handed you a saw and told you to do the work. Work, what work? A very handsome girl said, work hard and eat dumplings at noon.

Dumplings, aren't they just eaten during Chinese New Year? I remember eating a bowl of them last year, and I didn't want to eat wild vegetable cakes for several days. Is she telling the truth? I guess she lied to herself, that she can eat dumplings every day.

Since you let yourself work, you can work on your own, and the second master has no objection. However, the task assigned by him is to cut down trees, and the second master is to dig stones. He has nothing else, and has the strength. Although the sun is very fierce, it is nothing to Zhou Xiaoshu, who has been working since the age of seven or eight.

But, can you really eat dumplings at noon?

It was a very busy morning, everyone was working, but they didn't feel tired. However, before the sun reached noon, someone stopped him and said that it was time for dinner.

For lunch, it's really dumplings. This is really beyond my expectations. The dumplings filled with white noodles and wild vegetables seem to have meat in them. There are no pigs in Toad Village, so it should be wild boar. I saw a big man came back from hunting, and several people carried prey, pheasants, roe deer... This man's hunting skills are really good, if he also has his skills, he can probably eat meat every day.

Holding the dumplings, he didn't dare to eat them, so he asked the second master what he meant, and the second master said to eat his, the more the better.

I ate three bowls by myself, and I really couldn't swallow it. I didn't expect that one day I wouldn't be able to swallow dumplings. If you know that if you eat two more during Chinese New Year, your father will scold your mother.

In the afternoon, it was the same work again. Someone instructed him to do whatever he wanted. This life is nothing to him.

In the evening, it turned out to be steamed buns with white flour, and wild vegetables were stewed in the cauldron. Zhou Xiaoshu was really stunned. This is simply more extravagant than the Chinese New Year. Toad Village eats like this every day, it will cause divine condemnation.

However, at night, he was driven away by Toad Village. Could it be because I ate too much, only to find out later that it wasn't.

The man surnamed Huang said: You are not from the Toad Village yet, you can only say that you are contract workers. Currently, you are in the internship period, with two meals a day and five catties of food per person. If you want to work, you can come tomorrow.

The "contract worker" and "internship period" didn't even understand him, but the five kilograms of wheat were not fake. However, after doing some work, I ate two meals from others, and before I left, I gave myself food. It's not good to eat and take it like this.

After returning to the cottage, everyone heard what happened today and suspected that what they said was false. But the five kilograms of wheat made them believe that someone wanted to exchange it for me with a knife, but I refused. Although I liked the knife very much, my father and mother had not eaten white flour steamed buns for almost a year.

It's just, I heard that someone went to the big boss to give their opinions, saying why such a good thing was not allowed to go, and the big boss was not biased.

If they make such a fuss, I won't be able to go tomorrow, and such a good thing cannot be me every day. But in case...it really doesn't work, I'll steal it myself. It's five catties of grain a day. If you work a few more days, you won't be afraid in winter.

This year's year is not very good, God has not rained for a long time.

Lying on the kang, thinking about these things, Zhou Xiaoshu soon fell asleep.
