“I have a suggestion. It’s late at night. Even if you want to go now, you can’t go. I have more than a dozen war horses here. As long as you do some work for me, I can give it to you. As soon as the sky is bright, you can rely on horses. Pull the cart and run faster.”
Waiting patiently for the people below to calm down, Cheng Huaiqian made a suggestion.
The west side of the barbarian camp was dedicated to fifteen war horses in an area. Now that the barbarians had fallen, these war horses should of course be changed owners. Cheng Huaiqian unceremoniously assigned them to his team’s property.
Cheng Huaiqian’s suggestion caused the city residents in Bianlu City to lose their words, staring desperately, trying to see the two people on the tower clearly.
War horses were very precious resources. Barbarian war horses were even more precious high-end war horses. If sold in Daxia, one can sell from dozens to hundreds of taels of gold, and more than a dozen war horses are thousands of taels of gold, such precious war horses, what did the strong man on the tower say? Want to give it to them? Could their ears be broken?
In a shocked silence, three people walked out of the crowd. The one at the head was an old man who was over half a hundred years old. Next to him were a tall middle-aged man and a short, chubby middle-aged man.
Seeing that they came forward, other city residents subconsciously stepped back and gave way. Obviously, these three people belonged to the leaders with higher reputation and more right to speak in Bianlu City.
The tall middle-aged man walked straight to the forefront, raised his hand to Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize with a fist and saluted, on behalf of other city residents, asking them the most concerned questions:
“The strong man really wants to give the war horse to us?”
This question was so incredible that when the middle-aged man asked it, his confidence was obviously insufficient.
Everyone stared at Cheng Huaiqian closely, because the night was too dark, and only the area illuminated by the torches of the barbarian camp was lit. Some people couldn’t help taking two steps forward, wanting to see the expressions of the two on the wall clearly.
Cheng Huaiqian looked at the city residents, nodded solemnly and promised:
“That’s right, my companion and I will continue to stay in Bianlu City to stop the barbarians. We only need two war horses. The other war horses will be given to you.
However, my gift is conditional. Before dawn, all of you must work for me in accordance with my requirements. If the work you do satisfies me, these horses are my reward for you. ”
Although Cheng Huaiqian had made it clear that his gift was conditional and that the people of Bianlu City will work for him, the citizens still couldn’t believe it. They didn´t have enough to buy an ordinary war horse, but could they get more than a dozen high-end war horses as a reward? Were they still awake?
At this time, the middle-aged chef took his son back, and was immediately surrounded,so he personally told several prestigious leaders and other city residents the facts he had seen.
Hearing that the two on the city wall bluntly confronted and killed dozens of barbarians, everyone took a breath, and their scalp numbed with fear. The three leaders looked at each other even more, and suddenly realized clearly that had to do the job, wherever they wanted to or not.
Otherwise, no one was sure if the two strong men on the tower will “convince” them and let them personally feel the power of the sword.
So, the three leaders came to the city wall together, and after getting permission from Cheng Huaiqian, they bit the bullet and stepped on the barbarians all over the floor step by step up the steps and onto the tower.
Then, several people gathered in a circle and listened respectfully to Cheng Huaiqian’s specific requirements.
Cheng Huaiqian didn’t care what the residents of Bianlu City were thinking at all. He just wanted to borrow their labor to realize his plan to deal with the enemy.
This plan was the action plan set by Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize before the residents of Bianlu City gathered after they checked all their belongings.
They have to mobilize all the labor in Bianlu City and transform the entire Bianlu City into a huge trap within a few hours. After that, the residents of Bianlu City will be evacuated, and they will use the entire city as a battlefield against the barbarians.
Cheng Huaiqian had learned the trap technique, which was just as powerful as a tiger. As long as he personally creates or directs the construction of the trap, he will feedback the trap’s power and success rate after the trap is completed.
Even if it was the same trap, the power and success rate produced by Xia Ruize were not as powerful as those produced by Cheng Huaiqian.
Next, Cheng Huaiqian as the commander-in-chief, and Xia Ruize as the chief engineer, commanded the more than 700 surviving residents of Bianlu City to take action, and a vigorous urban transformation came.
Countless torches illuminate the main roads of Bianlu City like the day, and the city was full of busy city people, everyone was clearly arranged, obviously it was the early spring night, but many people were sweating profusely.
No way, Xia Ruize recorded all the city residents who participated in the work, and would give them points based on the results of their labor.
In accordance with the requirements of the two strong men, the more than a dozen war horses given to the residents of Bianlu City, how to divide the money in the end, refer to the scores recorded under their names now.
In other words, the harder you work now, the more work you do, the better, and more money will be allocated at that time.
Even young children knew to help as much as they can, and the city dwellers were very clear about how much money was needed, and what was involved was not a little bit of money, but a large amount of money calculated in gold.
No one will not do their best to make money for themselves and their families at this time.
With the hard work of hundreds of people, the whole city was changing rapidly, gradually revealing its hideous side.
At 7 o’clock in the morning, the sky was faintly light, the old and weak women and children were allowed to go home to pack their luggage, and the young and strong labors were under the command of Cheng Huaiqian to finish the trap arrangement.
After the sky was completely lit, the thirteen war horses with pallets were ready to go. There were a lot of grain and luggage stacked on the pallets, and some old and weak women and children sat on the edge of the pallets.
Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize stood side by side at the gate to the south of the city to send off the city residents. The three cooperated all night, and the leaders who had already understood their tempers came to bid farewell on behalf of the city residents.
“Two strong men, we are about to set off, take care!”
“Hurry up and go. You can go as far as you can, and if you sell these horses at the right place, you will have the money to settle them.”
Xia Ruize handed over the account book he had kept for the whole night to the lead man. This account book was a “book of credit” that Xia Ruize wrote down on an individual or family basis in accordance with the requirements of the city dwellers.
This account book was public. In the morning, Xia Ruize did not refuse anyone who wanted to see him, so, many city residents already knew how much credit they had.
The residents of Bianlu City suffered from barbarians all the year round, it was not that they didn’t want to leave, but they couldn’t move out without money. They had a house, land, housing and food if they stay here. After leaving Bianlu City, where can they survive?
But now it was different. These more than a dozen war horses were their biggest guarantee and trump card. After they move to a suitable city, as long as they sell the war horses, they will have the money to be naturalized in a new place and buy a few acres of land.
This was a major matter concerning everyone’s vital interests. The old man solemnly took over the account book and kept it properly.
After saying goodbye to each other, the long migration team officially set off. The woman who had been rescued by Xia Ruize suddenly ran over from the team, stuffed two baskets from her hands to Xia Ruize, and ran away in a hurry.
Xia Ruize opened it and saw that under a clean blue cloth, there were various foods, including dry food, bacon, clean water and melons. This was because they were afraid that the two of them would stay in the empty Bianlu city without eating, so they simply prepared it for them. right?
A woman took the lead, and several women rushed over and put the basket at their feet. Xia Ruize quickly said that they had enough, and to take it back.
The tall middle-aged man behind stopped Xia Ruize and explained:
“This is a little bit of our city people’s wishes, the two strong men will accept it, and I wish the two strong men a safe victory!”
After that, the middle-aged man did not give the two a chance to refuse, and left with the team.
The citizens of Bianlu City were very grateful to Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize. In addition to giving them war horses, the two strong men also gave them many weapons that they had found from the barbarians, so that they could protect themselves on the way of migration.
The citizens of the city couldn’t give out any expensive gifts, and could only give away some food carefully prepared by each household. This was their greatest wish.
The migrating team went farther and farther, toward the south, toward the safe hinterland of Daxia.
There was too much food left. Fortunately, the system space had been enlarged by the blessing of the space stone, and the food could be put in.
After sending away the citizens of Bianlu City, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian returned to the tower on the north wall of the city.
The tower hall had been cleaned up. There were no barbarians and no blood stains. There were a few wooden beds on both sides of the hall. On the wooden bed on the right, there was Luo Jing’er who was still in a coma.
Luo Jing’er’s body had been cleaned by the women, the wounds on her body were also smeared with medicine and they also put on linen clothes for her, but she had not woken up, so she was kept here.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian stood on the tower and looked towards the north of Bianlu City for a while. The barbarians hadn’t arrived in Bianlu City before the 12 o’clock noon indicated by the task, so they still had time to rest.
The two returned to the wooden bed placed on the left side of the hall, ready to lie down and rest.
In order to verify the guess in his mind, Cheng Huaiqian deliberately pushed the two wooden beds that were originally separated and merged into a large one, and then lay down beside Xia Ruize, facing the inexplicable Xia Ruize, Cheng Huaiqian explained straightforwardly:
” together there is more room to move around and to feel the movement of another person if something happens.
Xia Ruize reluctantly accepted his explanation, and didn’t pay much attention. After working all night, he fell asleep shortly after lying down.
Lying next to Xia Ruize, Cheng Huaiqian’s drowsiness quickly came up, and it didn’t take long for the two people’s breathing to enter a smooth state.
The whole city was completely quiet, until Luo Jing’er’s screams broke the silence.
“I have a suggestion. It’s late at night. Even if you want to go now, you can’t go. I have more than a dozen war horses here. As long as you do some work for me, I can give it to you. As soon as the sky is bright, you can rely on horses. Pull the cart and run faster.”
