With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

Chapter 49: Stop sleeping! Something happened!

The soldiers carrying backpacks went in and out of Zaxi Town, naturally attracting the attention of many people.

An old lady holding a child saw the coal in the soldier's backpack and asked curiously.

"Little brother, where did you get all this coal?"

The soldiers did not hide anything, but raised their hands and pointed at the hill.

"There's a lot of coal in that mountain. If you need it, you can bring some back to burn."

"Hey! Good, good, good! Thank you, little brother!"

After learning that there was coal on the mountain, many villagers went up the mountain carrying baskets on their backs.

The Red Army soldiers who were digging coal gave the broken coal to the villagers first.

The villagers thanked him repeatedly and went back home carrying the coal in their baskets.

Everyone was doing everything in an orderly manner without fighting or competing with each other, but this harmonious atmosphere was soon broken.

"Damn it! Who allowed you to dig coal here?!"

A shrill scolding suddenly sounded on the top of the mountain.

The soldiers and villagers who were digging coal turned around and saw a group of people coming, about 20 to 30 men.

Walking in front was a fat man wearing a padded robe.

His double chin swung when he walked, his waist was as thick as a bucket, he walked with his feet turned outward, and he had a small mustache.

Although the soldiers did not know the man, they quickly guessed that he was either a landlord or a bully.

After all, in this age of food and clothing shortages, if one can fill himself with fat, his family must be very wealthy.

Commander Liu frowned slightly and came up to them.

"Is there a problem?"

The fat man's eyebrows were raised and the flesh on his face moved when he spoke.

"Digging coal on my land, what do you think?"

Faced with such a brutal man, Commander Liu calmly stated the facts.

"But we have inquired and found out that this mountain is a barren mountain with no owner."

"Ugh!" The fat man spat fiercely on the ground.

"My ancestors have always owned this area of ​​Zhaxi Town. There is no such thing as unowned land!"

The soldiers looked at the guy's arrogant look and really wanted to punch him twice.

Everyone stared at the fat man with disgust. This guy was most likely the landlord of Zhaxi Town!

The Red Army had to do two things whenever they arrived at a place. The first was to fight the landlords and divide the land, and the second was to expand the Red Army. (Recruit soldiers and expand the Red Army)

We arrived in Zhaxi quite late yesterday, and this morning we suddenly discovered a coal mine and have been busy digging coal.

Before these two things could even begin, the arrogance and domineering nature of the landlord was witnessed.

There are too many things to do today, and Chief Liu has scheduled the game of Landlord and land division for tomorrow. Now he just wants to get rid of this fat guy who is delaying the progress as soon as possible.

"You said it's your territory, do you have the title deed to this mountain?"

After hearing this, the fat man hesitated for a long time, but finally stiffened his neck and spoke in a firm tone.

"What do you care if I have a title deed? This mountain is mine! You are not allowed to dig coal here!"

Chief Liu's tone also became tougher.

"Since you can't produce the title deed, this mountain doesn't belong to you. You have no right to interfere with our coal mining here!"

The fat man was so angry when he heard this that he shouted to the twenty or so strong men behind him.

"These people really don't understand what we are saying! Let's teach them a lesson!"

The twenty or so strong men behind him were all his hired thugs.

Anyone in the town who was disobedient and did not obey him would be severely beaten by these thugs.

At this moment, these thugs were as wilted as eggplants hit by frost. They stood there, not daring to take action, with a look of embarrassment on their faces.

I had been complaining in my heart for a long time. Didn't this dog landlord see that these soldiers all had weapons on their backs?

Asking them to take action at a time like this really shows that they have lived too long!

The fat man looked behind him, then glanced around at the black muzzles of the soldiers' guns.

Suddenly I realized that I was angry and said the wrong thing.

His thugs only had two broken sticks. No matter how powerful they were, they were no more powerful than a bullet!

He felt a little timid. It seemed that a head-on confrontation would not work, so he had to go back and think about it.

He turned around and cursed at the thugs harshly.

"What a bunch of losers, I'd rather raise some dogs than you!"

After cursing these words, he left without looking back.

The soldiers were so angry when they saw the fat man coming over, throwing a tantrum and then leaving.

"You shouldn't have let him go. You should have given him a good beating!"

"That's right, I'm so pissed!"

"It's okay. He won't be able to run rampant for two days!"

Then everyone continued to dig coal on the mountain. The soldiers who dug coal were replaced in waves, and everyone took turns to avoid getting tired.

"Hey! The coal for our camp is back!"

The voices of Li Dagang and his men could be heard from a long distance away. More than a dozen people were carrying more than 100 kilograms of coal on their backs.

All together they weigh about 2000 kilograms. The coal is durable, and these alone are enough to sustain them for many days.

Zhou Yue was extremely excited. This plan was perfect. The ten days in Zhaxi would not be so difficult for the soldiers.

The last time we were in Zunyi City, the team purchased a lot of supplies, including a lot of ginger and brown sugar.

Zhou Yue boiled several large pots of ginger and brown sugar water, and served a bowl to each person, who drank it to warm the body and drive away the cold.

Today’s dinner was not as perfunctory as yesterday. Zhou Yue made several big pots of super delicious noodle and fish soup.

I added dried vegetables and bamboo shoots to the fish noodle soup, also added soy sauce and salt, and scooped a large spoonful of white lard.

Last time in Zunyi City, we seized a large number of pigs from the enemy division commander’s pig farm, more than a hundred pigs in total, all of them fat and strong, each weighing more than two hundred kilograms.

All the lean meat was made into jerky, while the fat and suet were all refined into white lard.

Some of the dried meat and lard were given to them. Sometimes when Zhou Yue was cooking, she would scoop a spoonful of lard into the dishes to make them taste more fragrant and delicious.

Zhou Yue found that the coals were indeed durable, so she put a few large pieces of coal in the stove, but they were not completely burned after cooking.

Using this fire, I boiled several pots of water for everyone.

Everyone poured the boiling water into the kettle and held the kettle tightly in their arms. It was so warm.

After boiling the drinking water, there was still some fire left, so Zhou Yue boiled several large pots of water for soaking her feet.

There was only one bucket for foot soaking in the camp. Hot water was poured into the bucket. The soldiers put their feet in and took turns soaking their feet for a while.

The male soldiers were also very gentlemanly. Every time they would let the female soldiers soak their feet first and then it would be their turn.

After soaking our feet in a comfortable bath, everyone felt sleepy.

After the coal was burned, everyone gathered around the warm charcoal fire, closed their eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Zhou Yue also slept exceptionally soundly. While she was sleeping, the urgent voice of the system suddenly rang in her head.

[Sister Yueyue! Don’t sleep! Something happened! ]
