“Miss, Xiao Jin is so fast, it only took half a day!” Shaoyao said excitedly.

Looking like he wanted to step forward but didn't dare to, even Thirteen and Fourteen were eager to get close to Xiao Jin.

 But everything was in vain, Xiao Jin didn't even give the three of them a glance.

Ziyu glanced at Xiaojin's somewhat bulging crop and smiled.

“If Xiao Jin hadn’t had a big meal in the bay, his return would have been shorter.”

“No wonder it gave Yuan Bao and Tong Yuan its favorite dried meat. It turned out that it came out after eating enough in Daxia Bay.”

Shaoyao noticed something different after careful observation and called it a cunning golden eagle.

A few people took a break in the forest, had a relatively simple lunch, and then set off again.

 …

At dusk, the carriage arrived at Beicai Village and the road was being built to this point.

Beicai Village is about fifty miles away from Wangding Town in Xingyuan Prefecture, and the road construction team as far as the eye can see has not yet finished its work.

Where the carriage stopped, there were two large grass sheds, with open grain bags neatly placed together. Twelve guards and recorders responsible for measuring grain were waiting here.

 “Fortmaster! Boss!”

As soon as Ziyu and Li Bai got off the carriage, their identities were revealed, and all the guards in the two hay sheds ran out and surrounded the two carriages.

 “Thirteen, fourteen, this is a good errand for you!”

 The enthusiastic team members stepped forward to punch Thirteen and Fourteen one after another. Those who were laughing and joking did not dare to fight with the castle owner or the boss.

 “Who is in charge here?”

Ziyu walked over with her hands behind her back, walking in eight steps, and her four eagle eyes squatting on the roof of the car stared at a group of strangers.

“Report to the Lord, Captain Gao Feng is in charge here.” Gao Feng stood like a javelin and replied loudly.

 “Tell me about your progress and whether you have any difficulties!”

Ziyu had a stern face and an official accent, which frightened the guards to quickly line up and stand up.

 “The second team has met the castle master! Boss!”

The neat roar made Ziyu’s ears ring, and she coughed.

“Why are you shouting so loudly? Why don’t you stop working so late? Hurry up and prepare for today’s food distribution.

 If you have any questions, I’ll talk to you later! "

Ziyu saw people coming to finish their work in groups, and took a few steps back to the carriage, fearing that the coming people would startle the golden eagle.

If you **** off two big guys, they will definitely attack people.

 …

 Those who were leaving work consciously lined up in four rows.

Every person who comes to the food distribution office will consciously hand over the work tools and then report his or her name and team.

 After signing and postponing, they took out their respective small cloth bags to contain the amount of grain.

The fatigue on the faces of the villagers who got the grain was wiped away, and they carefully wrapped the tied grain bags in the coats they took off.

 Hold it in your hand, put it under your arm, or put it on your shoulder and walk away quickly with a smile.

When passing a carriage, bold people should look at it twice at most, while timid people should keep their mouths shut, lower their heads, and quickly cross the carriage.

 …

 When only the escorts were left at the scene, it was already the beginning of Xu Shi.

 Under the night sky with a crescent moon and stars coexisting, the place is open and cool, and the sea breeze brings a slight salty smell.

There was the sound of insects, and the wind blew a smell of dust mixed with the smell of grass.

 A fire has been lit for cooking in another straw shed, and Chef Qiu is giving instructions on washing and cutting.

 Ziyu and Libai were sitting on a narrow stool, opposite Gao Feng and others who were squatting.

"Master, we have enough food and silver here, so there is no difficulty. This road will be completely repaired in ten days, so what should we do next?"

Ziyu pointed at the folded quilts and a few old door panels, frowning.

"You guys just stay here at night. What if it rains? Why don't you rent a yard in the village?"

“Master, we don’t dare to go, there are many widows in the village.

The brothers were afraid that when they woke up the next day and moved to another place, they would be sorry for their wives and children at home. "

 At the peak of these words, I was embarrassed to look at Ziyu, the boss was cooling off them at the side!

“It’s good to know the severity, and I don’t encourage you to cause more love debts.

After this is completed, go back and follow your captain's arrangements. There is plenty of work to do.

If you keep working for another two years, there will be a holiday during the autumn harvest so that people can go home and work on the farm. You can also take a few days off. "

 “The Lord of the Castle cares!”

 …

 Under the torch, Ziyu and Libai sat or squatted with the escorts, holding a large bowl of Sulu noodle soup.

  The noodle soup with shredded pork, eggs, vegetable leaves, and dried shrimps was particularly fragrant. It was the first time for the escorts to taste Chef Qiu’s cooking skills and they all couldn’t lift their heads from eating.

 The sound of "snoring~sucking~" is heard endlessly, as if Ziyu is not reserved in a breeding farm.

Even Li Bai made a loud sucking sound, which made a group of guards **** even louder.

 A group of pot-bellied men reluctantly licked their bowls after eating five large pots of noodle soup.

Ziyu, who had put down her bowl early, couldn't stand the guards' habit of licking the bowl, but she couldn't blame them.

Field supervisors are already hard-working, as you can tell by looking at their salt-stained clothes.

After dinner, a group of rough guys invited Li Bai to go for a picnic to a small river two miles away. Chef Qiu was too old to go with a group of young people.

 “Bring more buckets of water when you come back!”

Chef Qiu yelled at a group of sweaty roughnecks, shook his head, picked up a broom and went to clean the hay shed.

“I know, don’t worry!”

 Can smell the peak of his own stink and respond loudly.

People who go out to the river each carry a bucket in their hands, which contains the dirty clothes they have worn for two or three days.

 …

 “Hey, boss!

If you and the castle master hadn't come here, the brothers' clothes would have been worn for a few days, and they brought two changes of clothes with them when they came out. "

“Listen to how many mosquitoes are flying around you. You can smell it from three miles away.”

Li Bai stayed away from these sweaty and smelly subordinates in disgust. He really wanted to reinvent this lazy person who still made excuses.

“Hey, we have rough skin and thick flesh, and we don’t feel anything when mosquitoes stare at us.

 We all moved as the project progressed, and the water source was far away and it was inconvenient. Besides, men don’t have to be so particular when they are away from home. "

Gao Feng didn't dare to say that the boss was in charge because he was in charge of the fort, otherwise he would be just like them.

 “Don’t make excuses, don’t be careless during the autumn harvest, you understand what I’m saying!”

Li Bai shook his head, too lazy to care about these sloppy escorts. They were so unhygienic that someone would take care of them when they got home.

“Understood! This year’s harvest should be good!

 The people value the crops in the fields more than their lives. Many families have begun to guard the fields, fearing that people or wild animals will damage them. "

“In this way, when the crops are about to mature, the guard team will organize a grain protection team to patrol in each village.

 The weather is good this year, but you should pay special attention during the days of harvesting grain and ask the elders in the village.

This autumn harvest is related to the food and clothing of many people, so there can be no mistakes.

 Only when people have food at home can the burden on Daxia Bay be reduced. "Li Bai pondered slightly.
