"Not only will they have conflicts, but the three thousand foreign Japanese soldiers will definitely take action!"

Long Bo licked his lips and continued to persuade: "Otherwise, with so many guns, are they coming to Alaska to hunt game?"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"It's not difficult to guess their actions, aren't they just disturbing the people? The more they harass the people of Huaxia Town, the more these people's wavering hearts will become firmer and move closer to us! When the fire reaches a certain level, our Dragon Scale Army will

Come out and give those foreign Japanese soldiers a hard beating, and you will win the hearts of the people!"

"Wouldn't this be too despicable?"

Xie Zhi thought for a while and asked: "They are all our citizens of Huaxia Town!"

This time, without waiting for Long Bo's reply, Thunder Dragon snorted: "How can it be possible without compassion and without any sacrifice? Besides, without experiencing loss, people will not know how to cherish it!"...

"Deputy Commander Xie, please rest assured..."

Long Xiaohu, who was beside Long Bo, said with a smile: "Most of the people who loyally support Huaxia Town have moved to Guangming Village and the base village north of Guangming Village. Those who stayed along the southern line are those who have just arrived and are wavering in their minds.

, these people... hum, many of them haven't even shaved off their braids!"

Indeed, the ten households in Fuyuan Village, the nearest base village north of the Denali Mountains, are all Qing people who have not shaved off their braids.

Early this morning, before the rooster crowed, Duan Bada got up from the kang, made a white steamed bun, put on a coat made of blue fabric, rolled up his braid and applied some vegetable oil on it.

Squinting his eyes and smiling, he walked step by step towards the mining area at the east end of the village.

In Fuyuan Village, there were still twenty-three households at the end of last year (Gregorian calendar), but I heard that the foreigners were coming to take over the mining area. The other thirteen households had obtained the Huaxia Town household registration, so they packed up their belongings and hurried north with the convoy.

Moved.

Only Duan Bada and nine other families shook their heads and stayed, ignoring the advice of the escorts.

Duan Bada stepped on the thousand-layer soles worn by his mother-in-law. He walked on the stone road and thought to himself: How can I get a good position with foreigners? At least the salary must not be less than what is paid in Huaxia Town!

Duan Bada is an outsider with Han blood in his body, but his ancestors have been banner slaves for a long time. Therefore, he has been in Huaxia Town for so long that he is reluctant to cut off the braids on the back of his head! Fortunately, braid cutting is in Huaxia.

The town was voluntary. When the escort saw that Duan Bada's family was unwilling to die, they just sneered a few times and did not force them.

If you don't want to cut off your braids, you can't get town registration. If you don't get town registration, the wages you get from working in the mines will be half less than those who have town registration!

Because of this, Duan Bada's mother-in-law often made trouble with Duan Bada, but every time she was slapped back by Duan Bada, who was bent on the Qing Dynasty.

Even so, the life of Duan Bada's family is much better than if they stayed outside the customs. White-faced steamed buns, which were rare in the past year, can now be eaten freely. In the past, the whole family shared one piece of decent clothes, but now their mother-in-law can get it every month.

Buy a few things. In the past, cooking water was used, but now vegetable oil can be evenly spread out and applied on the hair! If not for comparison, Duan Bada's family would definitely feel that they are living in the "paradise" that foreign pastors often say, and sleeping will be beautiful.

Wake up with a smile.

However, things in the world are always affected not by scarcity but by inequality. Duan Bada felt dissatisfied: Why does Zhang Goutou from next door get more money than me? He needs strength but not power, and he needs skills but not skills. He is just a big guy.

I don’t see any overtime work, either.

I worked so hard and worked overtime. The money I earned was less than 70% of what he did! Bah, didn’t I just cut off the braids on the top of my head? You people are rebellious and betrayed the emperor. Sooner or later, your home will be confiscated and your family will be exterminated.

Oops, all of them had their heads chopped off!

Duan Bada was knowledgeable and saw what Huaxia Town was doing. He often said to his mother-in-law on the kangtou: "Look, these rebellious people are trying to win people's hearts and cut off their braids in order to make themselves kings! What if we

If you can go back and report it to the government, this is a great achievement, and maybe you can be rewarded as a slave in a certain Beizi Mansion!"

His mother-in-law is uneducated, but she still feels awkward when she hears: "Master, what's the benefit of going back? We have food and clothing here, but will you starve and freeze when you go back? Oops, I was wrong, don't fight..."

Seeing that the gate of the mining area was in front of him, Duan Bada dug hard into the ground with his toes, as if it was his mother-in-law's disgusting face: women have long hair and short knowledge, and those who are against the people will always be against the people, okay

Can the days last longer? If we don't plan early, our heads will be chopped off one by one! Look, when the foreigners come, don't these escorts who usually show off their power move faster than rabbits?

Foreigners, those are the people that the emperor and the queen mother are afraid of. Can we slaves stop him? Duan Bada shook his neck, but found that there were several more people around him: Xiang Tuzi, Ma Dapanzi, Shan Chaizi...

…They are all heads of ten families who, like me, stayed in Fuyuan Village and did not leave.

"Duan Bada, you didn't sleep much last night, did you?" A middle-aged man with pigtails and a large peach-shaped tumor on his right chin came over with a smile and patted Duan Bada on the shoulder.

"Take your dirty hands away, Xiang Tuozi!" Duan Bada flicked Xiang Tuozi's hand away and squinted, "How dare you come to a foreigner to look for work with all your skills?"

"Duan Bada, you, your mouth... is so damn smelly!" Xiang Tuozi blushed, but thinking that he was no match for Duan Bada, he jumped two steps away and cursed: "Why can't I find a job?

Are you here? Don’t foreigners want to mine? I have a lot of strength!”

"Tsk, you're a chicken-like thing, and your tone is so outrageous!" Duan Bada said disdainfully: "If you ask me, you should have cut off your braids long ago and registered as a Huaxia Town household registration. Only they would accept a waste like you!"

"You...poof, I, Xiang Liuyang, are you the kind of person who betrays your ancestors?"

"Tsk, I think it looks like it!"

"Okay, okay, let each of you say less!"

Shan Chaozi came up to smooth things over, "We who are left behind are all obedient people who are loyal to the emperor, and we should unite! When those foreigners came into the village yesterday, didn't they not harass us at all? It's not like what the escort said.

How terrifying! Let’s come to the mining area today to beg for food from them, I’m sure there won’t be any difficulty!”

"right!"

Ma Dapanzi shook his face and echoed: "Foreigners are short of manpower, but we have rich mining experience. One person can support three people. We must unite and ask foreigners for a much higher wage than before!"

"It's absolutely true! It can't be lower than what Huaxia Town opened!"

More than ten people nodded like this.

It was finally dawn when a yawning foreigner walked out of the workshop in the mining area. Duan Bada and others, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly greeted him.

"Oh, you want to mine for us?"

Charlie Nord was sitting behind a table, looking at the dozen or so yellow people with pigtails in front of him with sleepy eyes, and he was very interested: "Have you ever worked in this mine before?"

"Yes. I have been working here for almost half a year, and we are the most familiar with this mine!" The person who answered was Shan Chaozi, who was the only one among more than ten people who could speak foreign languages.

"Well, tell me, what is the daily output of this mine?"

"Sir, you must have asked the right person... This gold mine is not deep. Thirty people are enough to go in each time. Any more will be a waste. Calculated based on working ten hours a day, four hundred ore can be dug out.

How many kilograms!" Shan Chaizi introduced in detail.

This small gold mine is one of the several gold mines left by Long Bo.

Charlie Nord is the head of the Monroe family (a small chaebol). The Monroe family only has one mining right, which was bought at a high price later. The location is not very good. It is on the edge and very far from the port. Therefore, Charlie Nord

The pressure on Li.Nord is huge, at least not to let the family's investment go to waste!

Fortunately, Zha Li was very lucky. He came to this mining area yesterday and found an abandoned gold mine! Although the mining equipment inside had been dismantled, he could still mine gold after a rough tidying up!

Regardless of whether the quantity is large or small, as long as he can mine raw gold ore, Zha Li will have the capital to make a deal with his family.

However, Zha Li's manpower and machines are limited, and his main focus is still on digging out the large ore veins that have been discovered. How to allocate manpower to mine this small gold mine gave Zha Li a headache last night. But

Unexpectedly, early in the morning, some "aboriginal people" came to ask for help, and this troublesome problem was solved.

"Okay, I'll leave this gold mine to you. No less than 600 kilograms of raw ore should be used every day! You, be their leader, go out and start working!"

Charlie Nord made a decision, pointed at Shan Chao, and settled the matter.

Six hundred kilograms?

Shan Shorty was a little dumbfounded when he understood. While the people next to him were still giggling incomprehensibly, Shan Shorty quickly asked cautiously: "Sir, six or six hundred kilograms, is it too much? Is it too much?"

"many?"

Zha Li, who was about to leave, stopped, turned around and said funnyly: "Short, tell me, why are there so many?"

"It used to be that there were more than thirty people, and the best time in a day was no more than 450 kilograms. Now it has increased to 600 kilograms. With just a dozen of us, we can't finish it...ah, could your lord send someone to help?" Shan Chaizi said.

In the middle of the journey, I suddenly "awoke" and thought that I might be able to control a few foreign devils. The bones in my whole body softened: It would be great to know foreign languages!

"No, I won't send manpower! You are the only ones digging this gold mine. You can't lose even a gram of 600 kilograms a day!" Charlie shook his head and said seriously.

"Ah? Sir, it can't be completed without more help!" Shan Chaozi was stunned and shouted quickly.

More than ten people digging 600 kilograms a day, that's crazy, it would be exhausting!

"Can't you finish it? Aren't you going to work overtime?" Zha Li became a little impatient and frowned: "How can 10 hours of work a day be enough? If you ask me, sleeping 4 hours a day is enough. From today on,

Everyone must work in the mine for 18 hours a day!"

Duan Bada and others were still giggling, but Shan Chaozi was sweating: This foreigner is too, too ruthless!

"Eighteen hours, we will die!"

When Shan Chaozi told the people next to him what Zha Li meant, their expressions changed horribly, and they quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, you see, with such intense work, we will all be exhausted in less than ten days!

No, sir, absolutely no!"

"The noise makes my eardrums hurt!"

Zha Li couldn't understand what Duan Bada and others were saying. He rubbed his ears and scolded Shan Chaozi: "Tell them to stop making noise. If you make any more noise, I will call the guards in and kill you!"

Shan Chaozi wiped his sweat and recounted the story, and the dozen or so people who were shouting immediately shrank their necks and fell silent.

Shan Chaozi's face was covered with sweat, and he kowtowed several times like a head-kowtowing insect: "Sir, please calm down, working 18 hours a day will really kill people. If we die, there will be no one to mine for you, right?"

Zha Li had a cold face and smiled: "It's okay not to work for 18 hours..."

"Ah, thank you..." Shan Shorty's face showed joy.

But before Shan Gaozi could finish his words, Zha Li said quietly: "You should all have wives and children. If you don't want to work 18 hours, fine. Then take your wives and children with you to help in the mine!
