004, the initial construction team
It is said that as soon as Bai Shujie heard that these dozen or so people were peers who ran out of the coal mine, he evoked another Bai Shujie's sleeping memory, and his heart felt even more uncomfortable, and at the same time, he was full of anger.
"Get up!" After taking a long breath, he said: "It's not a long-term solution to go on like this, you gather all the brothers, I have something to say." ”
The two men turned around and said hello, and everyone gathered around. Bai Shujie counted carefully, a total of seventeen people. Although they are all skinny and unkempt, they are not very old.
"Brothers, to be honest, I also escaped death from the coal mine four years ago, and we are all family." Bai Shujie said carefully: "If you can go to relatives and friends, or want to go home, I can send you the travel expenses." If you don't have any worries at home and have nowhere to go, you can follow me. As long as I have a bite to eat, I won't make everyone hungry. ”
After waiting for a while, Bai Shujie continued: "If you are willing to leave, I will pay the passage fee now, two oceans per person." Hurry up and decide now! ”
zuihou, there are nine people who want to leave. Bai Shujie didn't say a word, and each of them sent two pieces of ocean to send them away. The remaining eight people, including the two guys who led the robbery.
"Now, I want to make it clear to you that it is very dangerous to follow me, and if you don't do it well, you will lose your head." Bai Shujie looked at the faces of the eight people one by one, and breathed a sigh of relief before continuing: "So, I'll give you zuihou a chance, if you leave now, you can get five oceans." ”
After waiting for about three minutes, no one made a sound. Bai Shujie smiled and asked, "What are your names?" How old and where did you come from? ”
After everyone's gossip and noise, Bai Shujie finally understood.
The one with the other handle is called Zhang Xiang, 23 years old, from Liaocheng, Shandong. The guy with the firearm is called Zhang Yan, 20 years old, and is Zhang Xiang's cousin. Both of them were deceived by Mu Jinyi at the beginning of last year, and then they couldn't survive it, so they risked their lives to escape. The two have been orphans since childhood, and their parents and family don't know when they disappeared.
The remaining six people are: Cheng Shijie, 19 years old, from Cangzhou, Hebei; Duan Zhixian, 18 years old, from Yuncheng, Shandong; Zhan Jinguo, 18 years old, from Yanzhou, Shandong; Yin Mingde, 19 years old, from Tangshan, Hebei Province; Zhou Dayong, 20 years old, from Qingdao, Shandong; Liu Zhiliang, 16 years old, from Jincheng, Shanxi.
Bai Shujie figured out the origin of these people, and then asked, "Zhang Xiang, what kind of boundary is this?" Is there a place to eat? ”
Zhang Xiang clenched his fists and said: "Big brother, not far to the north is the remote ridge, where there is a small market town and an inn. ”
"Okay, you lead the way, we'll stop in the middle of the mountain today. Let everyone take a good bath and fill their stomachs. Bai Shujie waved his right hand and said loudly: "Brothers, go!" ”
Zhang Yan's eyes were quick, he leaned over and grabbed Bai Shujie's box, and followed Zhang Xiang to stride forward. As soon as the rest of the people heard this, they immediately had something to eat, and their spirits came up all of a sudden, and they rushed forward together with Bai Shujie.
In less than an hour, Zhang Xiang in front shouted: "Big brother, the house in front of you is a remote ridge, let's hurry up!" ”
Those people were all young men in their teens and twenties, and they rushed forward at once. Bai Shujie's body is strong, coupled with his plum blossom fist body is wonderful, like a lightning bolt out of the crowd, he came to the market town in ten minutes.
When he came to the destination, Bai Shujie found that the so-called market town was just one or twenty households. However, because of the middle of the road, the path passes through the middle, so there is an inn floating in the middle. When I got closer, it turned out that it read "Zhang's old store".
The shopkeeper, who was writing something, saw Bai Shujie walking in the door in a student outfit, and quickly came out of the counter and said, "Sir, are you here?" Is it to eat or to stay? ”
Bai Shujie leaned on the edge of the counter, knocked on the counter with the middle finger of his right hand and asked, "Boss, there are eight followers behind me, can you stay here?" ”
"If that's the case, there's a main house and two wings in the small courtyard behind me." The shopkeeper bent down and said, "But the store money is three dollars a day, not including food." ”
"Okay, I've got it." Only then did Bai Shujie know what the actual price was, and then asked, "What do you have to eat here?" ”
The shopkeeper bent down again and said, "Look at what you said, this is nothing, and the better one is just pork stewed vermicelli." ”
Bai Shujie nodded and said, "That's good, hurry up and prepare!" By the way, do you have any tailors near here? ”
"There is one, and three of them go north." The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Is the gentleman going to make clothes?" ”
"Big brother, we're here!" With Zhang Xiang's loud roar, all eight people rushed in at once.
"It's not that I'm going to make clothes, it's these people I've found are going to make clothes." Bai Shujie shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I'm going to take them to the city to do errands, and it seems that it won't work without making clothes." ”
"Alright, please come with me, everybody. When I settled down, I went over and invited the master tailor over to give everyone a measurement. The shopkeeper looked at Zhang Xiang and the others, smiled and nodded, and then led everyone to the backyard.
Bai Shujie found that it was indeed a main room in front of him, and the two wings on the left and right were slightly larger.
As soon as the store left, Zhang Xiang shouted again: "Haha, I can't imagine that Lao Tzu will also have a day in the guest house!" ”
Bai Shujie was simply angry: "What roar? Hurry up, take a bath, clean up after taking a bath, and it's time to eat! ”
Considering that these people need to recuperate, Bai Shujie is not in a hurry, so he lives in this old shop. Because pork vermicelli is made every day, and they are all young men, it seems like a different person for half a month. Especially today, everyone is wearing new clothes designed by Bai Shujie, how to look at it.
It turned out that Bai Shujie thought about it in the long run and did not choose any clothes such as horse coats. Instead, he referred to his own student suit, combined with the style of the tunic, and customized a dark blue suit. The top is four pockets, and underneath are trousers with belts. At the same time, Bai Shujie made a uniform white shirt for everyone. From the inside to the outside, two sets per person.
Zhang Xiang, who has always been very arrogant, when he took over the two sets of new clothes with both hands, the dignified seven-foot man actually cried. Under his influence, eight people knelt neatly in front of Bai Shujie and kowtowed in two rows.
Bai Shujie hurriedly asked everyone to get up and stand up, and then said solemnly: "Brothers, we are brothers for one day, then we will be brothers for life!" I want to make a rule: from now on, we will not kneel down to anyone except our parents and teachers! As the saying goes, a man has gold under his knees. The head can be broken, the blood can be shed, and never kneel! Do you hear that? ”
Eight ** voices shouted: "I heard it! ”
Bai Shujie yelled: "Have you eaten all the pork stewed vermicelli for more than half a month?" Like a, I didn't hear it! ”
"A man has gold under his knees! The head can be broken, the blood can be shed, and never kneel! ”
"Good! I hope you remember today's vows! Bai Shujie nodded and said, "You have been recuperating here for more than half a month, and your health has begun to improve. Starting tomorrow, we're going to keep going! Let's disperse and get ready. Liu Zhiliang informed the cabinet to prepare two days' worth of dry food and settle the bill together tomorrow. ”
After breakfast the next day, Bai Shujie settled the account and learned that the nine people had eaten and lived for 16 days, plus custom-made clothes, and spent a total of 31 oceans. Considering that he would go to a big city in the future, Bai Shujie gave everyone a piece of ocean as pocket money. All of a sudden, everyone was so happy that they almost couldn't find the north.
"Don't rejoice too soon!" Walking out of the remote ridge to a barren hillside, Bai Shujie stopped and said with a gloomy face: "Since you are following me, then you must remember: you can't go to the kiln, and of course, you are not allowed to flirt with women from good families!" Also, no big cigarettes! If I know that you have committed these two crimes, I will not be forgiven! ”
"Also, Liu Zhiliang has been doing business with his father since he was a child, and he has studied private school, and he is familiar with arts and sciences, and he will be our manager in the future." Bai Shujie took out a small leather bag that had been ordered by the tailor master and handed it to Liu Zhiliang and said: "This is a hundred oceans, and from today onwards, you will be responsible for our logistics and food." ”
"The eight of you can't always be like a plate of loose sand, from today onwards, I will appoint Zhang Xiang as your squad leader, Cheng Shijie has a solid foundation in martial arts, Duan Zhixian knows martial arts, and can hunt, and the two of you are the deputy squad leaders. The words of the squad leader and the deputy squad leader are orders, and everyone will order and prohibit them from now on! Violators, I will punish severely! ”
Now, Cheng Shijie led a brother to explore the way in front, Duan Zhixian led a brother to the back hall, and Zhang Xiang led the other brothers to respond in the middle. The distance between the three groups is 500 meters, which is one mile. Goal, Mukden, go! ”
Cheng Shijie is a native of Cangzhou, Hebei Province, and has seen a large army. Hearing Bai Shujie's order, he immediately stood up and responded loudly: "Cheng Shijie obeys!" Yin Mingde, follow me! ”
After waiting for three minutes, Bai Shujie asked Zhang Xiang to lead the team to set off, and instructed Zhang Yan and Zhan Jinguo to follow later. On the way, Bai Shujie asked Zhang Xiang to take a closer look. In his previous life, he had heard of Don't. Knowing that it was an earthen pistol, it was loaded from behind the bolt.
When loading, you need to grasp the lever and take one bullet at a time. The probability of failure is about 60%, plus it is a smoothbore, and the effective range is about 20 meters. In the original Red Guards, many Red Guards wore this thing.
It may be because the barge gun is too common in China, and the bullet is easy to get, so don't use the 7.63 caliber bullet of the barge gun. Bai Shujie wants to see Zhang Xiang's tricks, on the one hand, he wants to see the rarity, and on the other hand, he wants to confirm the caliber.
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
