Chapter 682 The New Boss

The man didn't believe it. "You? What kind of work can you find for me? I won't steal or kill anyone."

Zhou Guo raised his eyebrows, "You speak as if you are very principled. Have you forgotten that this is a bandit's den?"

Full of sarcasm.

But the man didn't mind at all. He said, "It's not easy to be a bandit these days. It's even harder to be a good bandit. You can't survive without stealing, robbing and killing people."

He sniffed, "By the way, what kind of job are you going to recommend to me?"

Zhou Guo said: "Escort."

"what?"

"What? Escort, do you want to be an escort? Everyone in your village can go escort. Food and lodging are provided. The wages are calculated separately. There are subsidies and benefits during holidays."

“What are subsidy benefits?”

"If you are required to work during holidays, we will give you an extra month's wages. We will also give you gifts on major holidays, such as rice dumplings, rice, flour and oil. We will also give you a set of clothes during the Chinese New Year..."

"Let's do it." Before she finished her words, the man agreed immediately. The treatment was so good, and they would get extra money during the New Year and other festivals. Not only would they give out rice and noodles, but they would even give out clothes. Only servants in wealthy families could enjoy such treatment.

But those are servants, they are not, they are... refugees...

It seems that I am not as good as others.

Zhou Guo smiled and said, "Okay, wrap your neck and call them all in."

The man played dumb, "What? Who?"

Zhou Guo said: "Who are you calling? Of course it's your people."

Pointing outside the door, "Don't think I don't know. There are a lot of them."

When the door opened, there were indeed dozens of people squatting outside.

Seeing that the man was fine, they breathed a sigh of relief and greeted him one after another, "Boss."

"Hello, Boss."

……

The man nodded and said seriously, "Come in and meet our new boss."

A group of people were stunned, "What, what did you say?"

Two lamps were lit in the room.

Zhou Guo sat on the kang, swinging the dagger in his hand, making small holes on the kang, and looked at the man with a smile.

The man also smiled and pointed at Zhou Guo and said, "Brothers, from now on this is our new boss, and I am your second in command. Come, everyone, follow me and meet the boss."

Kneel down and salute.

When the others saw her, a little kid of eleven or twelve, they thought the boss had gone crazy. "Boss, are you crazy? Where did you find such a young boss for us? Her? She's not worthy. Has she been weaned? Don't you still call her mother in bed at night?"

Everyone laughed, "A big boss named Niang."

The man got angry and grabbed the one who laughed the loudest and slapped him twice.

The man was knocked unconscious and bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Then he picked up the man and threw him out like a rag, and said to the remaining people, "Come, salute me, hello, big boss!"

Everyone no longer dared to disobey and followed suit, saying, "Hello, Boss!"

The voice is loud, but somewhat reluctant.

Zhou Guo was amazed at the man whose expression changed faster than the weather. She looked at him carefully, wondering if he had schizophrenia. She had never realized that he was so serious.

No wonder he can be the boss, he really can.

She glanced at her subordinates and seemed a little out of place. How come she had become the boss in such a short time? Was she the leader of the bandit's den?

"Zhou Guo, Zhou Guo, where are you?!" the old man suddenly shouted outside, shouting so anxiously.

Zhou Guo quickly replied: "Master, I'm here, it's okay."

After a while, the old man rushed in from outside, looked at the people kneeling on the ground, then looked at Zhou Guo sitting on the kang, and was confused. What was he doing?

The people below were also confused. Why was the village so lively today? Where did this old man come from?

Anyone can come up to their Wolf Peak Mountain now?

Is it an endless battle between the old and the young?

Zhou Guo introduced him to the head master: "This is my master."

The man and his brothers saluted the old man again, "Hello, old man."

The old man nodded numbly, walked over to sit next to Zhou Guo, and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "What are you doing?"

Zhou Guo whispered back: "It's not convenient now, I'll tell you later."

Everyone saluted, and the man pointed at Zhou Guo and said to the younger brothers below: "From now on, the one sitting on the kang is our big boss. She will help us make a living, find us jobs, take us to eat delicious food, and give us clothes to change, shoes to wear, and meat to eat. Come, kowtow to the big boss again."

The younger brothers were truly willing to kowtow. After they kowtowed devoutly, they looked up and asked Zhou Guo, "Boss, which mountain are you originally from? Are there many people on your mountain?"

Zhou Guo said, "Not much, but if you enter my mountain, you must first abide by the rules. First, you must not kill or rob people, second, you must not steal people's money, third, you must not bully the weak, and fourth, you must not do anything that violates integrity and morality... Anyone who violates the above will be fined or beaten with a stick, or executed on the spot or expelled from the mountain."

The people below looked at each other in bewilderment. Almost everyone here had become a small leader in the mountains. Although life had been hard in the past, at least they were free.

We haven't even entered the door yet, and there are so many broken rules?

What's the point of not being able to drink alcohol and causing trouble? Then what are they working so hard to make money for? Isn't it just to make money? Now they are not even allowed to drink alcohol, so what's the point of making money?

Someone immediately said rudely: "Well, if that's the case, I won't enter this mountain gate. There are so many rules. I might as well go back to the military camp. It's much more comfortable there. I won't enter."

"I won't join either. If you don't even let me drink, what's the point?"

Seven or eight people expressed their opinions.

Zhou Guo didn't say anything, and the man got anxious. "What's going on? I told you not to drink while you're working. How much can you not drink after you've finished your work? You can't help yourself even after such a short time, what do you want to eat? There aren't too many rules now, you can eat and drink as you like, but do you have the money? Do you have money to drink and eat meat?"

Everyone was silent. They had no money and it seemed like they hadn't had a drink in a long time.

"Then she can take us to drink and eat meat? Can she do that? She is just a brat, she has not even grown all her hair yet, how can she do that?"

Zhou Guo smiled but said nothing.

At this time, someone suddenly shouted, "It's her. It's her. I remember now, Boss. Last time we didn't get anything and were beaten up and thrown into the woods. She ordered people to do that. It was her subordinates who did it! Mom, you've come here and we didn't get anything. You're too vindictive!!"
