In the face of Cook's attack, Downton did not hesitate, his right fist was clenched, and it slammed into his right wrist, which was holding the mace.

Cook's arm hurt and he slid to the side, barely grasping the mace, but he was also used to fighting in groups, endured the pain, and kicked Downton's crotch.

Downton lifted his foot to block Cook's calf, and then slammed into his knee.

In the midst of the screams, Cook was unsteady on his feet and threw his front pestle to the ground.

Downton landed an uppercut to Cook's chin, causing his body to float, followed by a shotgun of both fists to his chest.

Cook's body shook like chaff, and he kept retreating, and Downton chased after him, bombarded, and then strode and twisted his waist, his right fist like a powerful ballista, and slammed into his chest.

Bang, Cook fell out, rolled on the ground for more than ten meters, and his head was knocked out by a broken stone.

Downton's feet swooped down, and almost in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Cook.

Cook struggled, and as soon as he looked up, he saw a long leg whipped like a steel whip and slammed it into his mouth.

Like a ravaged sack, Cook rolled on the ground, fainting from the blow, but he didn't have to suffer anymore.

"Who else is not convinced, you can stand up!" Downton patted the placket of his shirt lightly, and then his eyes swept to the ground.

The miners around lowered their heads, not daring to look at Downton, they didn't expect Downton to be so capable of fighting.

Cook's fellow villagers were obviously unconvinced, their eyes kept looking at each other and talking, but there were still a dozen unlucky people who had been cut by the showers screaming, reminding them of the gap in force with Downton.

"Very good, I'm Downton from Morningfog Town, and from today onwards, this mining area will be transferred to my disposal" was still exactly the same as just now, but this time, no miner dared to laugh out loud.

A few freedmen from Dawn Mist Town stood up, they had good brains, and they knew that they had no choice, even if Cook Zuihou succeeded in counterattacking, they would still be implicated, and it was better to attach themselves to Downton early.

Someone took the lead, and more people from Morning Mist Town stood up, after all, it was a big border town, so there were quite a few people, more than a hundred.

"Downton, you can't do such nonsense, even if you settle Cook, the big foreman will not recognize your status. "Someone kindly warned that Downton was too young to be tactful enough, and he certainly couldn't convince the big foreman.

"It's okay if you don't admit it, then let's step on him too. "Downton hasn't shown his hole cards yet, otherwise even the big foreman who controls more than a thousand people is no match, and the ghoul servant can definitely tear him to shreds.

The miners were silent, they didn't have the confidence of Downton.

"Haven't you had enough of being exploited, and are you happy to pay your ore taxes every day?" asked Downton rhetorically.

The ore tax is given to the foreman, and if he refuses, he will be abused and bullied, which is still light, and if he is disabled, his life will be over.

No one answered, and of course the miners were not happy, but this is the dark rule of the dagger mine, who can break it?

"From this day forward, no one can suck the blood of our miners and let those moths die!" Downton roared, "as long as you believe in me and follow me, I will always be at the forefront and take you back what belongs to you." ”

"You don't want to be a big foreman, do you?" asked a man with obvious authority among the miners, "we're not going to go crazy with you." ”

"I can't do it?" Downton snorted coldly, staring at the man who asked, "Courage, I have a lot, I am desperate, I am not afraid, as for decisive force, I can fight, I Weishenme will not fight?"

Downton's words stunned the miners, who did not expect that although this kid was not very old, he had more courage and courage than all of them adults.

The mining area fell silent, everyone's thoughts were chaotic, as long as they were miners, there was no one who had not been bullied, and even now, everyone had to pay an additional ore tax every day, in addition to the quantitative work, and handed it over to the big foreman.

"I don't want to be like you, being bullied every day, not even letting go of a cruel word, I can only hide in the quilt every night and cry aggrievedly?" Downton's disdainful eyes swept over these miners, "You have worked hard for a month, you haven't even received a salary, only a body of exhaustion and scars, after you go back, how can you face your wives and your children, do you tell them that your father and husband are soft eggs, and all the money they earn has been robbed?"

"You're a softie!" finally someone couldn't stand the ridicule and yelled.

"Very well, this is what you want, I will take you and take back all the ore that the Great Foreman and they snatched from you. "Downton incited the miners, as long as the stick of deterrence is not enough, there must be profit-driven.

The young people are excited, but more middle-aged people who have long been smoothed out by the hard life are full of distrust, so they will not accompany Downton to fight hard.

"As long as you follow me, after the end of the period of servitude, each person will be given a minimum of twenty gold coins, and those who have special contributions will be rewarded with at least one hundred gold coins. ”

Downton made a bid, and instead of bribing the steward and foreman with gold coins, it was better to use them to reward ordinary miners, at least to become a big foreman, and no longer have to grovel to anyone.

"Where did you get the money?" some people still didn't believe it.

"How much do you think my dagger is worth, is it enough to pay your salary?" Downton shook it from the shower, and the dim light of the oil lamp still couldn't hide its sharp color.

"Downton, we support you to be a big foreman!" the miners no longer had any doubts, even if they were fools, they understood that this dagger was worth a fortune.

"It's over!" Cook, who woke up, saw this scene, and in a fit of anger, he vomited another mouthful of blood, listening to the miners' discussions, and there was only one thought left in his mind, that is, to find the big foreman to suppress Downton.

"Let's all go to work. Downton sat down on Cook's blanket and quietly breathed a sigh of relief, he did so because he had thought of a way to break the game.

Who is the highest power in the mine? Of course, it is the head of the mine, and if he gains his trust, his status will inevitably be improved, and when the time comes, ordinary people will not dare to make trouble easily, so the next step is to make the situation as big as possible and attract the attention of the director.

"Grab the position of the head of the mine?" Downton thought amused, his goal was not so superficial.

"Bring Cook here. ”

Downton had to interrogate the informant and find out the distribution of power in the Dagger Mine in the shortest possible time, as well as the objects of note.

Götze, who had been watching from the sidelines, was completely shocked, watching the miners obey Downton's orders, and dragged Cook to Downton, who was still arrogant just now, and didn't believe it was true.

Everyone is obviously a teenager of the same age, but he was beaten in front of the mine gate, not to mention, and was extorted for silver coins, but Downton didn't have a copper plate, and beat the guards, and then entered the mining area, not even half a day, he pulled the foreman down and counterattacked the upper position.

"Is this weishenme?" Gotze couldn't understand, weishenme himself was compared to others, and he was not even as good as waste slag?

The miners' minds were scattered a lot, and they were all talking about Downton, and every time they passed by the marketplace, they still felt incredible to see Cook kneeling beside Downton.

When the sun set, three short horns sounded, melodious and vigorous, representing the time to get off work.

The five newly elected miners walked up to Downton's side, and stopped talking.

"What's the matter, just say it!" Downton kicked the pebble, "Cook, you can go." ”

Cook got up and ran as if he had been pardoned.

"Downton Foreman, we have discussed, let's pay the ore tax today!" the miners asked, they really didn't dare to disobey the big foreman.

In fact, the subtext they didn't say, if Downton failed, then it was still them who were unlucky, and the big foremen had already let go, and if they didn't pay the daily ore tax on time, it would be doubled the next day.

Downton's answer was simple, kicking the miner to the ground.

The miners who were leaving saw the scene, shrunk their shoulders, and walked faster, and even those miners who wanted to stay and see the situation did not dare to stay for a long time.

"What's the use of you discussing, I'm the foreman!" Downton scolded, with a calm face, scolding these five guys, he had just taken office, and if what he said was changed, the deterrent power would fall to the bottom, not to mention, and it would make them even more inch-in.

"We didn't mean that. A miner hastened to plead.

Downton didn't listen, and he kicked it again, and at the age of thirteen he had served in the mines, so that he understood how to make miners as obedient as sheep.

"You five, you've been dismissed, get out!" Downton didn't look at the soft eggs, and walked to the tunnel exit, while pointing his finger casually, "You, you, and you, from today onwards, are my cronies." ”

The three young miners who were named were overjoyed, and immediately gathered around Downton, as cronies, they didn't have to work, as long as they supervised the miners, which was definitely a generous benefit.

"Foreman, you can't do this!" the five men who had lost their rights caught up with Downton and pleaded bitterly.

Downton didn't look back, he originally used these guys who were more authoritative among the miners to stabilize the mood of the miners faster and control them, but he forgot that these five old guys were also the most content with the status quo, so the newly selected ones were all young people without exception.

"Get out of here, don't bother Downton's foreman!" The three new cronies didn't want to lose their jobs, so they reached out and pushed them away without waiting for Downton's orders.

Downton is very satisfied, these young people are more motivated, and they are more unwilling to be squeezed.

"Foreman, go faster, there will be no food if you go late. "A cronie is flattering, the work in the mine is hard and tiring, so the miners eat more, but the food in the canteen is always not enough, and when they go late, they can only drink boiled water.
