Gujin Live: You don’t want me, you deserve to cry to death

Chapter 231: Brave Tian Hao, not afraid of difficulties

In Lingzhou, walking at night is still dangerous.

They rested here. Tian Hao was holding a bowl of hot cabbage and potato soup when he heard a long howl coming from afar.

Looking out through the tent, you can see pairs of green eyes in the distance.

"Wolf." Tian Hao had seen it before.

"Girl, it's okay. They don't dare to come. We are many people and there are fires all around the camp." Songyue comforted Tian Hao.

Tian Manni also said, "Little sister, if they dare to come, I will make you some wolf meat."

In Tian Zhenglin's tent, Su Huai's face looked a little bad. "Duke, you can see that this place is not suitable. Otherwise, choose a place closer to the town."

"No need, let's go here. My intuition tells me this is a good place." Tian Zhenglin insisted.

Su Huai cursed in his heart as "fool". In this place, no matter what the reason for death, it can be said that it was killed by wild beasts.

The powerful people from the capital are naive.

boom--

There was a loud bang.

Su Huai shuddered with fear, "What happened?"

Tian Zhenglin also pretended to be confused: "How should I know this? Doesn't Su Tuiguan know? Is the mountain god angry?"

This place is close to the south and we have never seen gunpowder. After hearing what Tian Zhenglin said, we became surprised and confused.

Wan Ying saw the green eyes disappear, smiled and waved his hands: "Let me do this kind of thing in the future. This weapon is too powerful."

Yes, they used a grenade.

Animals are very sensitive to sounds, let alone such loud noises.

"Official Su, look, the wild beasts are gone. It must be that the mountain god is protecting this duke. I was a little hesitant at first, but now I have chosen this place."

Su Huai didn't believe what Tian Zhenglin said. He thought, let it be here. He could make a fuss as long as it didn't affect their making money.

Kang Xu was relieved when he heard that Tian Zhenglin had chosen a place.

Rebuilding cannot be done with just these few people.

After leaving the government office, Tian Hao was in a dilemma: "Dad, we need to clean up the site and make plans. How can we do it with so few people?"

"Recruit people." Tian Zhenglin said decisively.

"Sir, are you hiring?" Suddenly, a timid voice interrupted.

Tian Haojian was a teenager who was dressed in rags and was very thin.

Look at them with hope.

"Yes, can you find someone reliable?" Tian Hao asked with a smile.

The boy looked around, as if he was afraid of something. Tian Hao asked, "Can you tell us when you get back?"

After returning to his residence, the young man said, "I'm afraid it's difficult for you to recruit people. All the able-bodied men have gone to the salt fields, and I don't know where the rest have gone. There are only some like me, the elderly, the weak, women and children."

"saltworks?"

"Conscripting men?"

Tian Hao frowned, "But we see there are many adult men in the city?"

The young man pursed his lips and said, "You are from outside the city and you don't know that these men are deliberately left here. Firstly, these merchants also need labor, and secondly, they are for you outsiders to see. The people of Lingzhou are suffering a lot. I heard that our prince is coming. I wonder if this will change anything."

"Kang Zhifu and Chen Shoubei are the local tyrants here. They run private salt mines and probably other mines as well. They are all exploiting the people."

"Aren't you afraid of bringing trouble upon yourself by telling us this?" Tian Hao asked the young man.

"Don't be afraid. Are you the Duke's men? If so, be careful." The young man said, his eyes dimming. "Anyway, we don't know when we'll be caught. If we're caught, we'll be caught. But can you please rescue the people in our village?"

"We can only try our best, if what you say is true."

Although the young man said so, who knows if he was sent by Kang Xu.

Tian Hao asked the boy a few more questions. The boy's name was Ningchuan. He was from Ningtou Village. The officers and soldiers went to their village to arrest people, but he escaped.

Occasionally, when he heard that a duke was coming, he would wait there. He had been observing Tian Zhenglin and the others for a few days, so he was not afraid of recognizing the wrong person.

Tian Hao felt a little heavy in his heart: "Dad, I didn't expect Lingzhou to be like this?"

At the same time, she was also thinking of countermeasures.

"Songyue, take Ningchuan to rest." Tian Haokan asked Ningchuan to go out before discussing with the Tian family, "Back then, there was a live broadcast room, so it wasn't so difficult. I didn't expect it to be so difficult here."

"What's wrong? Are you scared, Xiaohao?" Tian Zheng said this deliberately.

Tian Hao really stood up: "Dad, what do I have to be afraid of? At worst, I can go to the next door to recruit people. That's all I have to do."

"I knew my daughter wouldn't be afraid," Tian Zhenglin praised, then said, "I'll go find Kang Xu, and you guys go to the pawnshop. As long as the money is in place, the issue of the person can be easily resolved."

"What about Ningchuan?" Tian Hao asked.

"Let's put him aside for now and talk about it after we stand firm." Tian Zhenglin said.

Of course there was a pawnshop in Lingzhou. Tian Hao explained her purpose of coming. The pawnshop agent said in embarrassment: "Miss, it's not that I don't want to find someone for you, but it's hard to find someone nowadays."

"Why?" Tian Hao asked, "I see there are a lot of people working in the city."

"Well," the broker hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't tell the truth, "the people are busy with their farm work and won't go out to work, and the people in the city won't go out either."

"Is there really no other way? Price is not an issue." Tian Hao said, "It doesn't matter if it's a man or a woman, or a family, as long as they can work."

The dentist was a little moved, "Miss, please follow me inside."

When they got to the back room, the dentist said, "Miss, do you want to make these people unable to take care of you? If so, you can buy it."

Tian Hao's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "There are many people who want to buy it. Can you get it for me?"

"Of course," the broker said with a smile, "There are still many refugees in the neighboring prefecture, and it's difficult to accommodate them. As long as there is food, it will be fine. However, the price is——"

"First, five hundred capable men." Tian Hao immediately placed a bid for a thousand taels of silver, "a deposit."

The broker saw the denomination of the banknote and smiled so hard that his eyes were almost invisible. "One thousand five hundred taels is enough, but you can't bring people into the equation."

"Is it because of the prefect?" Tian Hao asked directly.

"It seems that the girl is not completely ignorant. I will bring the person to a place and you can go and receive him."

Tian Hao had a problem with his teeth and he couldn't feel good at all.

Kang Xu is a senior official after all, how could he treat the people like this?

"My lady, it's just far away," Songyue said, "His Majesty will send more people."

"Send someone?" Tian Hao was surprised. Ji Yian didn't tell her.

"His Majesty wanted to give you a surprise, so he didn't tell you." Song Yue smiled with pursed lips. If Tian Hao hadn't been worried, she wouldn't have told you.

Tian Hao felt relieved a little, took a deep breath and said, "No, I have to do something before they get here."

She insisted on coming to the south, and she couldn't let the visitors think that she only relied on others.
