Each of the dozen or so young men who escorted Thirty-Two received a reward, and then helped their families move as quickly as possible.
The two sculptors also hurried home. Their wives and children were also moving. The two sculptors hurried over and took over the heavy work. They said with smiles on their faces: "We have been working as craftsmen for thirty years. We will do it again in the future." There’s no need to work shifts in the government’s workshops.”
Both wives were overjoyed, but then they looked worried: "Our children will also be shift workers in the future. Once they grow up, they will also have to work shifts."
The two sculptors laughed and said, "What does this mean? As long as we help Tianzun make a few more statues, we will prepare all the craftsmen's silver for our son, grandson, and great-grandson."
Then the two wives also smiled. In the past, they could not see the future and lived a hazy life, but now, they always feel that the future is infinitely beautiful.
Thirty-two accompanied Mr. Wang and slowly walked into the brand new Hakka enclosed house. It has a solid foundation and thick walls. The partition walls between rooms are actually made of metal, with thick paint on the surface. There was a banging sound, which made the new Mr. Wang look confused.
In this remote place, a village whose name I had never heard of actually had such strength and could afford to build such a terrifying castle.
"Sir, you are teaching here, so you don't have to worry about bandits." Thirty-Two said proudly: "Not long ago, the bandit leader Supreme Ming Wang led more than a thousand rebel bandits to attack, but they were also defeated by our Gaojiacun. And another You have also seen what relationship the fierce bandit Wang Er has with us. When you come to Gaojiacun, you can [sit back and relax]."
Mr. Wang was dubious when he heard it, but seeing how powerful this castle was, he couldn't help but believe it.
It was already noon, and many villagers began to cook. The aroma of rice, flour, and even chicken and bacon filled the enclosed house...
Mr. Wang couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Although he was a scholar, he was very poor and couldn't afford a wife. He couldn't eat a good meal for a long time. He couldn't help but move his fingers when he smelled the smell of chicken and pork.
I couldn't help but ask: "Although Third Master gave me a lot of silver, there is no market in this village. Where can I buy food?"
Thirty-two laughed: "Sir is the person Tianzun wants to hire, so naturally Tianzun will be responsible for your meals."
Mr. Wang was puzzled: "Tianzun? Who is he?"
Thirty-Two did not explain, and pointed to Gao Yiye who was trying to maintain his dignity in the distance: "That is the Saint. I will take my husband to see the Saint, and the daily necessities will be arranged immediately."
Mr. Wang had no choice but to bite the bullet and came to Gao Yiye.
Before he could speak, Gao Yiye smiled and said: "Tianzun already knows that sir is coming, please come with me."
Mr. Wang was confused and followed Gao Yiye.
Gao Yiye took him to a patio. There was a circle of houses surrounding an open space. She pointed to one of the houses and said, "Sir, you can stay in this room temporarily. The patio in front of the house is used for decoration." Place tables and chairs for Mr. to teach people how to read and write.”
"As for your daily expenses, sir, there is no need to worry about that. You can tell when you enter the house."
Mr. Wang curiously went into his room and took a closer look. Rice, flour, oil, salt and bacon were piled up in half the room. Even if he ate it with all his belly, he would probably have to eat it for a year and a half.
"This...is all for...me?" Mr. Wang stuttered.
"Yes! Tianzun said that if you can teach here with peace of mind, your benefits will be indispensable in the future."
-----
At the same time, in the mountains more than ten miles away.
Wang Er returned to the mountain stronghold with a group of his most loyal subordinates.
It is said to be a cottage, but it is actually a huge cave. There is no furniture or anything in the cave. There are only a few crooked grain trucks and hay on the ground. The hundreds of thieves he brought out to rebel are in this simple cave. Live temporarily in a cave.
The mental state of the rebels is not very good. After all, the current living environment is really not good. Once humans live in such an environment for a long time, they are prone to mental problems.
Wang Er took out the bag of salt given to him by Thirty-Two, raised it high, and said loudly: "Brothers, look what good things I got back, haha, a bag of salt."
Everyone was overjoyed!
The second master, Zheng Yanfu, and the third master, Zhong Guangdao, gathered around with excitement on their faces: "Is there any salt?"
Wang Er laughed: "The third master of Gaojia Village gave it to me. Such a big bag of salt is enough for us to eat for a long time."
"It's from Gaojiacun again." Someone in the bandit army not far away muttered.
"Gaojiacun is so rich."
"Tsk, they gave us flour before, and this time they gave us salt. It seems that there is still a lot of stock in the village."
"There must be more good things in the village."
The direction of the discussion is a bit wrong.
Wang Er's brows furrowed deeply, and he suddenly turned his head and glared at the people who were speaking. Sensing the boss's displeasure, those people quickly shrank their heads and retreated deep into the cave.
Wang Er then gave up and asked the second and third brothers to be responsible for dividing the salt. He himself walked aside, put on his clothes and lay down.
Zheng Yanfu took a deep look at Wang Er and saw that he seemed to be asleep. He pulled Zhong Guangdao aside and whispered: "Third brother, have you noticed that the eldest brother is too biased towards Gaojia Village?"
Zhong Guangdao shrugged his shoulders: "Gaojiacun is kind to Wangjiacun. The night before our uprising, Gaojiacun also gave Wangjiacun dozens of barrels of flour. With my eldest brother's temperament, of course he will favor Gaojiacun. .”
Zheng Yanfu whispered: "Gaojia Village has grain, salt, and is extremely rich, but because the eldest brother is on the side, we can't do anything. I heard the brother who went out to grab things came back last night and said that there were more than a dozen fat pigs." Sheep can be slaughtered, but because those fat sheep are from Gaojia Village, my eldest brother let them go."
Zhong Guangdao said in a low voice: "I have also heard about this. If those dozen fat sheep had been slaughtered at that time, the harvest would have been more than just a little bit of salt. I would have definitely made more."
Zheng Yanfu chuckled: "It seems that our two heroes have the same view. Third child, do you want to do it?"
Zhong Guangdao also chuckled: "Of course!"
Zheng Yanfu: "Then you have to avoid big brother and all the people in Wangjia Village."
Zhong Guang said: "In a few days, let's look for an opportunity, make up an excuse, and coax the elder brother to take the people from Wangjiacun to the north. When he goes far away, we will go to Gaojiacun and beat him up."
Zheng Yanfu: "I heard that Gaojia Village has a tall city wall. Not long ago, the Supreme Ming King fell under the city wall of Gaojia Village. Dozens of his subordinates came to surrender to us. Do you have any clever tricks, third brother? ?”
Zhong Guang said: "The Supreme Ming King is a fool. He only knows how to attack hard. Of course, that won't work. We can't be that stupid. You help me prepare a long rope. At night, I will sneak up the city wall alone, kill the sentry, and then Opening the city gate from the inside, our people poured in, catching Gaojia Village off guard, and then everything in the village will be ours."
Zheng Yanfu was overjoyed: "The third brother's plan is brilliant, so let's do it. After it's done, the eldest brother can't say anything, just like we arranged the wives and maids of several wealthy families in Chengcheng County. Shibabanmo, the matter has been done, and he can only stare, hehe."
Zhong Guangdao nodded: "That's for sure."
The two of them discussed it and made a decision in their hearts. They laughed twice, turned around suddenly, and found Wang Er standing behind them, with an angry look on his face: "Second brother, third child, you two, how can you not be like this?" this……"
He was about to scold the two of them angrily, but unexpectedly, Zhong Guangdao and Zheng Yanfu took out short daggers at almost the same time and stabbed him.
