Chapter 215 Burrow
He Bajiao stared at the supervisors carrying the boxes back to the cave.
After everyone moved in, he threw away the lock that had been broken.
He locked it with a new lock, pulled it twice, and after confirming that there was no problem, he took the supervisors out of the house.
At the door, He looked at the damaged door, his expression becoming increasingly ugly.
One of the supervisors saw this and explained:
"Boss, the door has been arranged. It will be repaired in about half an hour."
He Baotou took a deep breath and said:
"Guard the room well, everyone. No one is allowed to enter without my permission. I'm going to find Lord Jiang right away!"
Just as I was about to go out, I saw an injured person being helped over.
He Baotou's expression was extremely grim, but he could only turn around and order:
"If there are any injured miners coming over, just distribute the medicine as before. I'll deal with other matters when I get back!"
As he said that, He went to the stable, mounted his horse and rode towards Lord Jiang.
On the river bank, Lu Qingqing and the others came out from under the stage after seeing that all the robbers had run away.
The whole place was in a mess, but there were far fewer people injured this time than before.
Those with less serious injuries have already stood up on their own, and those with more serious injuries have people coming to support them.
Seeing this, Lu Tianming led a few people around him to help carry the man to He Baotou to apply medicine.
When He Baotou arrived at his house, there were already quite a few people sitting at the door.
A supervisor was distributing medicine when he saw Lu Tianming and his group coming with the injured.
After taking a rough look at the injuries, he gave some medicine to the wound victims.
At this moment, almost everyone in Donggou gathered in front of He Baotou's house.
The front door of the house was demolished, and the situation inside was now clearly visible.
Lu Tianming and the others arrived late and were still changing the wounded's dressings when they heard a man beside them whispering:
"Third Brother, when I came here just now, the supervisors were still moving boxes in! I heard that the boxes are full of gold particles, and there are six big boxes!"
After hearing this, the other person curled his lips and said:
"You've only seen what's left. I heard the gang that came to rob just now also took away two small boxes filled with gold particles!"
When the others heard this, they couldn't help but secretly click their tongues.
As the man spoke, he saw that everyone around him was looking at him and immediately straightened his chest.
He accidentally pulled the wound on his back and gasped in pain.
But he quickly regained his composure and continued:
"You may not know this, but I heard there's a cave in He Baotou's house where the gold particles are hidden. Those guys just dug the box out of the cave!"
Another person said with some doubt:
"This Jingou has only been operating for a little over a year. Can Boss He really make that much money? And even digging a hole specifically to hide the gold?"
"We gave him all the gold particles we paid. Who knows how much he has to pay?"
Someone in the crowd said this.
This voice was louder, attracting the supervisor's attention.
Everyone immediately fell silent.
Lu Qingqing looked towards He Baotou's room. From this angle, she could see the cabinet that had been moved away.
There is a lock next to the cabinet, which should be the hole.
At this time, a man whose family member was seriously injured asked the supervisor:
"We've been robbed for two months straight. Are we just going to sit there and endure it like this?"
The supervisor looked at the man who was asking the question, and saw that he was an old man who had worked in Jingou for more than a year.
He thought for a moment before replying:
"He Baotou has already gone to see Lord Jiang. This matter naturally cannot be let go easily. We have to wait for He Baotou to come back to discuss the details!"
The man who asked the question nodded and continued:
"Yes, the enemy attacked us, and our brothers were seriously injured. We won't be able to work for several days!"
The supervisor knew what the man was thinking, which was nothing more than asking for some benefits, but the specific details would still have to be decided by He Baotou.
He comforted the man with a few words and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had calmed down.
The miners didn't know, but he knew.
This time, He Baotou was robbed of a lot of gold particles, which is not a small amount.
Even if I have to seek support from the palace this time, I must get the things back. I'm afraid this matter will not be resolved so easily!
Now, He Baotou is focusing on how to get the gold back, so he doesn't care about these miners at all.
He didn't turn back until it was dark.
Seeing this, the supervisors asked everyone to go back first.
For several days, He Baotou did not show up.
Everyone went to work as usual according to the previous arrangements.
It was not until the afternoon of the seventh day that Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang saw He Baotou while working in the river.
At this time, He raised his head and a smile appeared on his face.
When he saw the miners who were injured but still working in the river, he even smiled and said a few words to comfort them.
Lu Qingqing guessed that the last incident was probably resolved and He Baotou must have gained the upper hand.
When the people working in the river saw this, many of them hoped that He Baotou would give them some delicious food to try.
But until the end of the day, the miners had not heard any news from He Baotou.
It was as if the previous fight between everyone had never happened.
Privately, many people complained about this.
......
In the following days, Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang worked hard to collect gold particles every day.
Except for a small portion that was handed in every few days, the rest was saved in the space.
Seeing that there were more and more gold particles in the space, Lu Qingqing was looking forward to when the space would be upgraded again.
These days, the two of them always go to the livestock shed to feed the cattle after dinner.
I met Yao Bowu and Lu Yuanfang twice next to the livestock shed.
When they first met, the distance between them was wide enough for three more people.
Even so, when Lu Yuanfang saw Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang, he still looked like he had been caught doing something bad. He blushed, said hello, and ran away.
The second time I met the two, they were whispering something to each other.
Lu Qingqing only vaguely heard Lu Yuanfang say "yes".
Unfortunately, the pink bubble between the two was broken by two "big light bulbs" for the second time.
Lu Qingqing once again watched Lu Yuanfang run away with a red face, and this time even Yao Bowu's face turned a little red.
I don't know whether he is excited or shy.
He nodded slightly to the two of them and ran away.
Next to him, Qin Lang expressed his incomprehension for the second time:
"Daya, why are they running away with red faces again?"
Lu Qingqing didn't know how to describe the ambiguous period before falling in love, but this period should be the most beautiful.
Then, she looked up at Qin Lang, who was standing next to her with a curious look on his face.
Suddenly, she felt that she would never experience the ambiguous period before falling in love in her life.
This idiot probably doesn't even know what ambiguity is!
Shaking her head, she walked to the barn and touched the cows that had been waiting eagerly for a long time.
When the daily feeding routine began, I watched the man and the cow easily eat a large amount of food.
Lu Qingqing suddenly had an idea. If it were in modern times, this man and cow might become famous by doing food broadcasting.
He and it are such big eaters!
If I didn’t have my own space, I really couldn’t afford to support these two in this day and age!
The days passed quickly, and it was almost time for the holiday again.
That day, after dinner, everyone was chatting in the house.
Then Mrs. Yao came back from outside and said with a smile:
"Tomorrow, my second son is getting engaged to Yuan Fang from the Lu family. We've booked a table at the tavern. Everyone who's free should go and have some fun tomorrow."
After hearing this, everyone congratulated him.
