Chapter 75 Confident
Baitao stuffed a mandarin orange into his mouth and answered vaguely: "Of course it's not good. Whether it's a child or an adult, being fat is not good. It's easy to get high."
Seeing that Bai Dashan was confused and had nothing to do after dinner, Baitao explained to the villagers what the three highs were.
The villagers were stunned for a moment after hearing this. It turns out that fat people actually have so many problems? !
Before, everyone thought that the town council member was chubby and out of breath after walking a few steps. Everyone thought he was a rich man who had never suffered hardships and was squeamish. But now, looking at it, that council member must be tall!
the next day.
The sun has just risen, and the villagers who have had breakfast are making final arrangements and waiting to set off.
Baitao scraped off the last two mouthfuls of sesame paste in the bowl. After eating it, she handed the bowl to the side, and Bai Xiaocao took it and went to wash the dishes.
I took a look at the mission schedule. There are still fifty-three hours, forty-six minutes and seventeen seconds until three hundred and sixty hours...
"Is everything almost done?"
Bai Dashan: "Let's talk to my aunt, it's almost time to set off."
"Then let's go!" Baitao waved her little hand and went to carry the sedan.
The villagers were uniformly dressed in camouflage fabrics, with gray and black cotton shoes on their feet, and carrying satchels. From a distance, they thought it was some company holding a large-scale team-building exercise.
Even though the villagers wear gray and rustic clothes, the things hidden under the cotton clothes are always better than the same.
Daggers, crossbows, ropes, machetes, flashlights... any one of them is eye-catching.
These days, in addition to cleaning up mudslides, villagers also take the time to practice using crossbows and some fighting skills.
He is a familiar person in the village, so the training effect is naturally good.
Both the red and blue sides have their own wins and losses, and the villagers have gained a lot more experience.
If we are attacked by barbarians again now, we will definitely not be as embarrassed as last time.
The shovel truck and hand truck were put away by Baitao, but she also bought a pack truck to bring out. Otherwise, the big and small bags would be hanging on people, and they would fall down from exhaustion after walking a few steps.
Antique piggyback truck specially bought from the tech world, solar-powered piggyback truck with remote control.
The body is extremely large and ugly, but it can be loaded with a load of 3.6 tons.
The key is that it can be hitched to the back of a horse to act as a carriage, but in fact, by turning on the remote control switch, you can control the direction and speed of the car.
One unit costs 100,000 coins, and Baitao bought 20 units, which cost him two million coins.
The five pack trucks were mounted on brackets and covered with windshield cloth to serve as carriages to haul the young, old and pregnant women. The rest were used to haul miscellaneous items from the village.
Even though the people in Peach Blossom Village didn't bring much with them when they escaped, they have accumulated a lot of things during this time.
The price is not cheap, but the quality of the product purchased from the technology industry is excellent. Even if it only shines in the sun for three hours, it can save two days of electricity.
Although Baitao thinks this antique pickup truck is ugly, now that he is out and about, it is safer to be uglier.
Besides, there’s nothing to fear about being ugly, as long as you can pretend to be useful.
The villagers were shocked when they learned that a black box no bigger than the palm of their hand was the key to controlling the movement of the pack truck.
"No need for horses or people to lead you?"
So magical?
Is there such a powerful object in this world?
You must know that this pack truck is not small. There are so many things on it that it would be difficult to carry it even with two horses.
Baitao: "No, this is high technology."
This is not the first time the villagers have heard this word.
They now know that anything involving this word is something very powerful.
"Then why do you need to hitch a horse?" Some villagers were puzzled. There is no need for horses to contribute, so it is unnecessary. But as soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately replied: "Nonsense, if you hit the horse, others don't know the power of it."
"That's it, we just need to know it ourselves."
"This is called deception."
"As the saying goes, wealth should not be exposed."
"..."
In fact, there is a shovel truck in front. What shocks everyone about the antique pickup truck is that it can move without anyone driving it.
After setting off and walking for a while, some villagers looked back with a look of pity on their faces. What about such a tall and thick wall? It was made of steel. How... Hey, where is the high wall?
He rubbed his eyes again and again, and after confirming that he was gone, he quickly ran to Bai Dashan.
"Village chief, village chief, my aunt's wall is gone."
Bai Dashan didn't understand what he was talking about at first, what about the aunt's wall, but when he looked back in the direction pointed by the villager who spoke, he immediately understood.
"It's okay, my aunt returned it."
"Give it back? Oh, that's good, that's good." If you borrow something, you must return it. It's not difficult to borrow again.
It’s not that the villagers want to save and borrow again. Even if they borrow and pay back, their aunt will not be criticized for taking advantage.
The villagers were reluctant to part with the thick steel wall, while Baitao was reluctant to part with the mountain.
This is a treasure mountain. The villagers have made a lot of money for her these days.
Now there are 213 small goals in her account, which makes Baitao more confident than ever before.
If the mudslide hadn't been cleared, and if she hadn't felt like she couldn't collect anything anymore, she might have been able to stay with her for a few more days.
She had money and people, so what was she afraid of? If someone with a short-sighted attitude came to provoke her, she would just deal with it.
On the first day of departure, we could still walk on the deserted trail, but on the second day we could only approach the official road.
There is no way, there is a big mountain in front, and it is a towering mountain with dense vegetation, the kind that makes you feel tired just looking at it. There are so many people of all ages in Taohua Village, there is no way to climb it.
The closer they got to the official road, the more nervous the villagers became.
Although they said they had been in the mountains and forests before, the encounter with barbarians in the cave also made the villagers know that the world is not peaceful now.
On the third day, after lunch, seeing that there were still a few miles to go on the official road, Bai Dashan started to give instructions again.
"Once you reach the official level, everyone must be more vigilant."
"Don't mind your own business when you see anything on the road. Think about your family, young and old, think about the situation in our village, and think about how much my aunt has worked hard for us..."
"If anyone tries to get close to the team in our village, they must be stopped severely and beat them if necessary."
"We don't cause trouble, and we are not afraid of trouble."
"Also, everyone must remember that outsiders must not be allowed to approach my aunt." Bai Dashan solemnly explained every word.
It is said that during disaster years, some wealthy families like to buy maids and servants. At this time, they can often buy good servants for the least money.
Sometimes even just a full meal is needed.
Their aunt's snow jade is cute, so she doesn't rule out the possibility of being targeted by Ya Xing.
"..."
These days, Baitao tells some stories to the villagers from time to time when he is resting. Some of the stories are full of twists and turns, all kinds of unexpected things, and everyone who listens is stunned.
I have been writing more words recently, and I will try to add 2,000 words a day next week.
