Chapter 240: The left and right protectors were delighted, bullying the "newcomer".
The mountain elder believed that the battle was becoming one-sided.
The result was exactly as he had expected, without the slightest discrepancy!
However, in the case of the Heavenly Gang, they are the fish that others can easily obtain from the chopping block!
In just half an hour, the entire army was wiped out.
Gao Mengli and Lin Xi came down from the city wall and laughed when they saw Shan Laoda tied up in front of them!
Lin Xi quickly ran to the side to find his frying pan!
"Father, here you go!"
At this moment, Da Niu handed the frying pan to Lin Xi, who was bending over looking for a pan, and grinned.
Lin Xi looked at the frying pan in front of her, then at her brat's eight gleaming white teeth, and her anger flared up.
He grabbed a frying pan and started slapping Da Niu's buttocks repeatedly: "You've got some nerve! You actually dared to come and fight the bandits, and you even brought all the village kids to cause trouble!"
"Don't run away, or I'll break your legs!"
Lin Xi had just given him a slap when Da Niu felt a sharp pain in his buttocks and ran back to the village, clutching his backside: "Dad, let me explain!"
"I won't listen!"
Lin Xi was furious and chased after him relentlessly, holding a frying pan in her hand.
The big ox was terrified, running away while looking back, which amused the surrounding villagers.
Gao Mengli smiled and shook her head, no longer paying attention to the father and son who had a love-hate relationship.
The village chief walked up to Gao Mengli and rubbed his hands together excitedly: "Lin family, what should we do with these people!"
Gao Mengli slightly raised her eyes, her gaze sweeping over the bandits who were bound hand and foot:
"Village chief, the profits from the brick kiln are used for infrastructure construction in the village, and now is the perfect time to reward them."
"Take it out and settle the accounts with the villagers and outlaws according to the number of people!"
Upon hearing Gao Mengli's affirmative answer, the village chief was overjoyed!
After all, Gao Mengli contributed the most to the kiln site.
The people were hired with money paid by Gao Mengli, and the recipe was given to us by the pottery village because of Gao Mengli!
He could only proceed with the allocation of the silver after obtaining Gao Mengli's approval!
Upon hearing this, the village chief nodded repeatedly, his wrinkles smoothing out as he smiled and replied:
"Okay, I'll get on it right away!"
After saying that, the village chief took out a small gong from his pocket, struck it twice, and Gao Mengli was stunned.
When the gong sounded, everyone fell silent.
"Fellow villagers! Bring your 'people,' let's go back to the village and divide the silver!"
Upon hearing the gong and the village chief's shouts, the villagers erupted in cheers.
Quickly drag and pull the person into the village to exchange for silver!
The mountain elder had imagined countless times the scene of marching into the village with his head held high and his spirits puffed out.
I never imagined that I would enter the village in this way.
Rebellious Heavenly Generals, rebellious Heavenly Generals! I wonder if it's too late to regret it now.
The next day.
The village chief arrived at the Lin family's house early in the morning to inquire about the arrangements for that group of people.
"Village chief, about this river in our village, the section that leads out of the village, could you have the bandits lead them there to widen the riverbank and lay a good foundation so we can build a dock!"
The village chief's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and laughed:
"Lin family, your idea is brilliant!"
"With a wharf now in our village, transporting goods and trading with the outside world will be much more convenient. This is a great thing that will benefit future generations."
The more I think about it, the more excited I get!
With the dock, it's much easier to transport the village's local specialties out of the village. It's safer, faster, and allows you to load more than by land!
The village chief hesitated, "Do they get paid for their work?"
Gao Mengli chuckled: "This group of people are ruthless robbers and thieves, even more rampant than the Lotus Sect."
So, they get paid, but not in their hands.
The village chief frowned slightly, looking puzzled: "If we don't give it to them, how will we pay the wages?"
Gao Mengli explained calmly, "Most people in the Lotus Sect have come to their senses and are sending money home, so there's no need to send more people to keep an eye on them."
Go find Du Hao and ask him to lead the bandits to divide up the mountain bandits.
The bandits assigned to them were responsible for their own food, clothing, shelter, and other needs.
The wages earned by the bandits were settled daily and handed over to the outlaws.
They will definitely manage this group perfectly for you, ensuring they don't cause any trouble.
The village chief nodded repeatedly, thinking, "This tactic of using someone else's strength against them is truly brilliant!"
This both restrained the mountain bandits and benefited the outlaws.
With them still wholeheartedly helping, the construction of the village's dock is a sure thing!
The outlaws would never let these people starve if they wanted to make money. After deducting the cost of food, clothing, and lodging, there would still be plenty left over from their wages!
But in the early stages, they will definitely be fed dark cornbread.
After all, they have committed many evil deeds in the past, they don't deserve it!
Once the village chief had an idea, he immediately got up and went to find Du Hao!
When the bandits heard that the village chief had brought such a good job, they almost worshipped him!
Each of them patted their chests and guaranteed that they would keep a close eye on them and would not let them escape or die of illness!
After all, losing even one is a loss, so we must make sure they live well and can contribute their value!
The two guardians had a terrifying night, never expecting that someone would come to keep them company!
I thought some kind of people would come, but I didn't expect them to be bandits.
They looked down on them, after all, the bandits were a mixed bag, lacking both martial arts skills and intelligence.
They're too lazy to brainwash them.
After all, this group of people is not as good as them.
The mountain leader thought digging the riverbed was already tiring and difficult enough, but he didn't expect that the tents in the camp would be filled with "bullying" from the left and right protectors.
I originally thought that the black cornbread was the best food they could get after their hard work.
But to their surprise, the left and right protectors actually bought delicious food from the village canteen at the entrance and ate it with relish right in front of them.
Uncle could tolerate it, Aunt could tolerate it, but the eldest brother of the mountain could not tolerate it.
He immediately slammed the black husk to the ground and got up to fight with the left and right guardians.
In the end, he was beaten black and blue, and regretted it deeply.
What kind of village is this?
If they are mountain bandits, then this village is full of ruthless bandits!
The mountain leader, bruised and swollen, slumped on the ground, filled with remorse, while his henchmen remained silent in fear.
At this moment, the outlaw in charge of supervising the construction walked over and sneered:
"Still dare to cause trouble? I advise you not to mess with the Lotus Sect; you can't beat them."
This is your chance to atone for your sins. Obey me obediently, and you will have a chance to live in the future.
After the bandit finished speaking, he stretched out his hand in front of his two protectors: "If you hit my men, then please settle the cost of the medicine."
Upon hearing this, the two guardians' faces flashed with displeasure. They were about to lash out, but then they remembered that they still had to make a living in this village, so they suppressed their anger.
The Right Protector curled his lip, pulled out a few copper coins from his robes, and reluctantly slapped them into the hands of the bandits: "That's all we have left for today..."
The outlaw frowned: "You dare to hit someone for just a few copper coins? I'll tell the village chief that your wages for tomorrow will be paid to me directly tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, the Left Protector's eyes widened, and his initial reluctance instantly turned into anxiety. He quickly waved his hand.
"No, no, no, brother! We didn't make enough bricks today, so we're short on funds. Please be magnanimous and forgive us this time."
As he spoke, he rummaged in his pocket for a while, pulled out about ten copper coins, and reluctantly handed them over: "This is our dinner money for tonight. We brothers will definitely be careful in the future and never do it again."
The bandit took the copper coin and glanced at the two men whose faces were contorted with pain: "Hmph, this is enough. If you dare to lay a hand on my men next time and delay the dredging and transportation of the river, I'll have the village chief starve you for two days."
Upon hearing this, the two guardians trembled involuntarily and hurriedly nodded and bowed:
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare, don't worry, brother!"
After saying that, he slunk away to the side.
When the mountain leader saw that their "leader" was actually standing up for him, he immediately glared fiercely at his left and right protectors!
Hmph, he has someone protecting him!
