"Oh? Brother Six had this carved on it. As for what it means! You don't need to know, right? In your mind, we are 'anti-thieves' anyway, and it's useless for you to know what is anti-thief." Li Aimingai Kaifu Li answered indifferently.
"There's nothing wrong if you say that. It's me who's troublesome. Then let's keep walking!" Kaifu Li replied helplessly.
"Well... let's go!" Li Aiming responded simply.
The houses directly under the mountain have been carefully planned, so although the houses are simple mud-brick houses, they are neat and consistent, which is particularly ornamental to people of this era.
On the way, many people who knew Li Aiming and Zhong Baoguo greeted them one after another when they saw their arrival, and occasionally even joked with them.
Seeing them talking and laughing like this, Kaifu Li felt an indescribable feeling.
The same kind of muddy legs. Why are the Mudlegs in other places indifferent or even afraid of the Green Camp soldiers, but the team members here are so valued and respected by them?
Why do the mud legs in other places look like they have no energy and are numb? But the Mud Legs here are so lively and active?
Why do the mud-legged people in other places look like no one, but the mud-legged people here seem to be full of hope for the future?
Kaifu Li didn't understand. Could it be that Zhang Rui really had such ability?
While Kaifu Li was thinking all the way, the three of them walked to the area where houses were still being built.
Suddenly, Li Kaifu saw one of his green battalion soldiers carrying mud bricks shirtless. With him were several other Green Camp soldiers who were also his subordinates, and they were talking loudly and enthusiastically about something.
When Li Kaifu saw this scene, he immediately became angry.
"This Zhang Liu actually dares to treat his soldiers as slaves to work? Is the money we have to pay every day in vain?"
Out of anger, Kai-Fu Lee wanted to ask his soldiers what kind of "abuse" they had received. It's better to go back and report to General Guarjia when the time comes, and then deduct some money from Zhang Rui.
So, he quickly walked towards the Green Camp soldiers who were building a house.
But before we reached it, we heard them shouting: "Everyone, hurry up, come on. Don't let the 'slow movers' next to us pass us, that would be embarrassing."
When Li Kaifu heard their calls like this, he couldn't help but feel strange.
When he arrived, the green camp soldiers also discovered Li Kaifu. He quickly put down what he was doing and kneeled down to Kaifu Li regardless of the dirt and dirt on the ground.
"Senior General, why are you here? Are you here to ransom us back?"
Upon seeing this, several Green Camp soldiers who were still laying bricks near the Green Camp soldiers also came over and knelt down to Li Kaifu.
Slowly, other Green Camp soldiers discovered the situation and came over to kneel to Li Kaifuxing.
Such a commotion naturally attracted the attention of the team members patrolling the surrounding area. Later, Li Aiming, who was beside Kaifu Li, explained to them that it was Brother Six's intention, and they left.
When they left, they also warned Li Kaifu and asked him to be careful and not cause a big commotion that would be difficult to clean up. At the same time, he asked Li Aiming and Li Aiming to keep an eye on Li Kaifu and not let him mess around.
Fortunately, not many Green Camp soldiers noticed Li Kaifu's arrival.
Of course, some people ignored Kai-Fu Lee's arrival and continued to lay mud bricks or build roofs as if they were rushing to work. Looking at the green battalion soldiers who were kneeling before Li Kaifu, they were still talking and laughing.
Li Kaifu calmed down and took a look, it turned out to be a Manchurian soldier.
Li Kaifu couldn't help but be shocked at this moment. If Governor Yang and General Guarjia knew about this, their entire battalion of soldiers would be treated like slaves. Then they can't blame me?
"This Zhang Rui is really brave. He is indeed a rebel and not afraid of death. Even a Manchu man dares to serve as a slave."
I saw Li Kaifu angrily asking the first Green Camp soldier who knelt in front of him: "What's going on? Did Zhang Rui drive you here to work and treat you as slaves? Why don't you resist." "
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, Sixth Brother did not force us to work, we did it voluntarily." The Green Camp soldier knocked his head on the ground and replied.
"Volunteer to work? What's going on? Are they like this too?"
After hearing what the green camp soldier said, Li Kaifu was confused. I saw him pointing at the Manchu who seemed to be working faster and asked him
"Yes, when they drove us here to work on the first day, we thought we were going to be slaves and that our work would be in vain. But we are prisoners after all, so we can't say anything more." The green camp soldier replied.
"As a result, they told me that I was paid for doing this work. Who would believe that anyone would pay wages to a prisoner? If the prisoner is not beheaded and has enough to eat, how can he expect wages?" General, please say so!"
"Yeah, right." Kaifu Li also felt that this was a natural thing.
"Your Excellency also thinks so, which means we must have thought correctly at the time." The green camp soldier was very happy to hear Li Kaifu's affirmation. Then he said
"But, on the first day, after we finished our work, they actually paid us wages, and they paid us right after work was done in the evening. Some people were paid a hundred mosquitoes, some were only paid a few dozen mosquitoes, and some were paid ten Duowen. I heard it has something to do with working diligently."
"Really give you wages?" Kaifu Li couldn't believe it and asked again
"It's true, and we can't believe it. But we already have the money in our hands, how can we still fake it?" the green soldier replied.
"Our sixth brother has always been true to his word and never made empty words." At this time, Li Aiming on the side couldn't help but interjected.
"Yes, yes. The team officer is right." The green battalion soldier who was still kneeling on the ground replied to Li Aiming's words with some flattery and envy in his tone.
Kaifu Li saw the two people standing and kneeling, and he felt this clearly. He suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart. Although it was him who was kneeling by the green camp soldier, he was also kneeling to talk to Li Aiming.
"Why do you Zhang Liu's 'soldiers' want my soldiers to answer you on their knees?"
Therefore, Kaifu Li ignored Li Aiming's words and said to the Green Camp soldiers who were still kneeling on the ground: "Everyone, get up! You can do whatever you need to do now. I will take you back tomorrow."
"Yes, sir."
………
The green camp soldiers kneeling on the ground replied, then stood up and left slowly.
Li Kaifu watched everyone leaving and paid a little attention. Some people heard that they could go back tomorrow, but they actually showed some reluctance?
Kaifu Li felt very strange. So, just as the Green Camp soldier who had replied before was about to leave, he said to him: "Well, you, stay here first. I still have something to ask you." 1
