291 - Three things

"Yes, yes, yes, wait, godfather will pour it for you." Zhu Kaishan happily got down from the Datong bunk and ran to the only table in the room.

Zhu Kaishan picked up the kettle from the table and a black pottery bowl from the side. He poured water into it very quickly and returned to Yang Yu. He supported Yang Yu with his hands to give Yang Yu, who was still feeling unwell, an excuse. With all his strength, he held the bowl in one hand and moved it towards Yang Yu's mouth.

"Xiaoyu, here comes the water, drink it quickly, after drinking, godfather is going to pour it for you."

Under Zhu Kaishan's care, there was not a single drop left in the bowl of water, and Yang Yu drank all of it. His parched throat was finally nourished by water.

"Godfather, why didn't you see Fourth Uncle? What did he do?" Yang Yu asked Zhu Kaishan after drinking the water, and his voice finally stopped being so hoarse after drinking the water.

"Your fourth uncle is in the pit. Your fourth uncle and I have been taking turns going down the pit for the past few days. Counting the time, your fourth uncle will be back soon." Zhu Kaishan turned his head and looked out the window. It's almost dark.

After Yang Yu got the news, he felt that his body was still unable to use his strength, so he said to Zhu Kaishan, "Godfather, I'm lying down for a while, now I have no strength."

"Okay, you go to sleep first, and I'll keep watch next to you. If anything happens, just call me!"

After Zhu Kaishan stopped speaking, Yang Yu closed his eyes. At this time, he really felt that his body was extremely tired, and it didn't take long for him to fall into a deep sleep again.

When Yang Yu opened his eyes for the first time, there was already a little popularity in the Datong shop. The room was already filled with all kinds of mixed smells. Now that there are people, the smell has risen to a higher level. .

Yang Yu sat up from the bed, but his behavior at this moment surprised others in the room. "Come on, come on, come on, come on, the God of Plague has woken up, you don't have to be afraid anymore, the God of Plague is fine."

As the man shouted, other people in the house also reacted and ran out of the house after the man.

A person ran out of the room yelling, and a person in the room was drinking water at the table, but seeing Yang Yu's appearance, he hurriedly dropped the water bowl in his hand, and walked to the bed in three steps at a time.

"Xiaoyu, you're really awake. When the third brother told me this afternoon, I still didn't believe it. Okay, since you can wake up, it proves that your father is really protecting you in the sky. Brother Yang, don't worry , I will definitely take good care of Xiaoyu in the future." The man came to Yang Yu's side and quickly grabbed Yang Yu's hand and said.

Yang Yu looked at the person opposite, and his face finally matched the one in his memory. "Fourth uncle, you're back. How long has it been since I woke up last time? Has your godfather been lost?"

"Haha, the third brother didn't go down to the pit. I don't know how long it has been since you woke up last time. It may have been an hour. Now it's not time to go down to the pit. If you really want to go down to the pit, you have to wait until tomorrow morning." He He The fourth child answered Yang Yu's question directly.

But after a while, Zhu Kaishan came in from the outside with a big bowl, and when he saw Yang Yu who was talking with He Laosi, his face was filled with joy, and he hurriedly moved towards Yang Yu's position. come over.

"Xiaoyu, are you okay? How do you feel? Are you hungry? Come on, get up and eat. The meal you just made." Zhu Kaishan put the two large bowls in his hand on the kang and put them on the table. Beside Yang Yu.

"Godfather, you're back. I'm really hungry after what you said." Yang Yu said, and the two people around him quickly opened the cover that was supposed to be put aside when they heard what Yang Yu said. bowl.

I saw two bowls, one of which contained a few steamed buns, and the other contained a whole bowl of stewed vegetables, which had already been stewed, so I couldn't tell what it was.

Yang Yu took a steamed bun from Zhu Kaishan, put the bowl in front of his face, and the three of them started eating dinner around the bowl.For Yang Yu, who had just woken up, he didn't have much appetite.

Not long after, Yang Yu finally had something in his empty stomach, and his stomach wasn't so hungry anymore.

At this time, Yang Yu finally had the idea to ask the two of them about their current situation. "Godfather, Fourth Uncle, what's going on with us now? How long have we been in Laojingou?"

"Counting the days, we have been here for more than two months. Let me tell you, we are just busy working in vain. The boss here doesn't even have the ability to check the pulse. During this time, I looked around I've read it over and over again, but this is the place with little gold." He Laosi didn't know why Yang Yu asked for the time, and he himself vented all the recent things he encountered as complaints.

"Fourth, don't say such depressing words. It means that there is less gold. As long as we work hard, we will definitely be able to save it. We are still wanted by the court. It is best not to expose it." Zhu Kaishan warned. The grumbling He Laosi reminded him that in their current situation, it was best not to cause trouble.

"Okay, just listen to Third Brother, I'll continue to bear it." He Laosi's mood became even worse as he said it. It was true that he had been a little too angry recently, and he couldn't take it back.If this had been postponed to the Gengzi Year, he would have killed people without saying a word.

Don't forget that he didn't just come to Laojingou to pan for gold. His previous main business was the Boxers, and he even killed foreigners.

Listening to the argument between the two, Yang Yu just listened quietly and didn't express his opinion.After the two stopped, they glanced around and saw that no one was approaching the three of them before asking the two of them.

"Godfather, fourth uncle, if we recruit a group of gold diggers here, can we do it alone?" Yang Yu lowered his voice and asked at a volume that only three people could hear.

He Laosi stared at Yang Yu with his eyes widened, with a look of disbelief on his face. "Xiaoyu, please don't be joking. This is not an easy job. This kiln is not easy to open."

"Yes, what your fourth uncle said is right. There is a group of bandits next to this place, and this group of bandits is still collaborating with the government. If we rashly open a kiln, we are afraid that we will not be able to keep the gold out of it." Zhu Kaishan was still thinking. Very sober, he introduced the current situation to Yang Yu over and over again.

"Hahaha, godfather, it depends on your snooping on the surrounding forces and collecting these information. I guess you have already thought about this!" Yang Yu listened to Zhu Kaishan's precious words, he I also guessed what Zhu Kaishan was thinking at the moment.

"Oh, I really can't hide it from you, boy. Compared with your father's brain, now that you have woken up, I will leave it to you to use your brain. Your godfather, I can finally just follow the instructions Work." Zhu Kaishan looked at Yang Yu, at this moment he seemed to have returned to the Boxer Regiment, when Yang Yu's father was serving him, everything was clearly arranged by Yang Yu's father, and he didn't have to worry about it at all. .

"Third brother, have you really thought about this?"

"I've thought about it. Now that Xiaoyu is awake, I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll leave the rest to Xiaoyu." Zhu Kaishan looked relaxed at last, pulled out his cigarette bag and lit the pot. Take a sip.

Faced with the eyes of the two, Yang Yu was not timid, but just sat there without speaking. After a while, Yang Yu finally smoothed out his current affairs.

Then he raised his head and looked at the two of them. "Godfather, fourth uncle, I've made up my mind. We should contact the old brothers who fled here with us. The number doesn't need to be many, as long as there are ten people. We will recruit the rest when the time comes. After all, Gold mining is inseparable from gold diggers.”

Zhu Kaishan smoked his pipe, and after waiting for a while, he finally asked Yang Yu: "Xiaoyu, think about it, but there are bandits, government offices, and so many gold kilns around us. kilns, but we are also competing with them for business.”

"Godfather, I've thought about it. Bandits are nothing. Since there are bandits here, why can't we be bandits? We can replace them. Let's go in two steps, and let the fourth uncle bring ten old brothers in the house." Open a new pit here, and as for us father and son going up the mountain and spreading the word to the outside, I believe that the Boxers who escaped from the Northeast will come back to join them with the reputation of being godfathers." Yang Yu compared his further plans with the two When people speak out, they don’t hide anything. Everything is out in the open.

"I don't agree, let the third brother watch here, I will follow Xiaoyu up the mountain to be a bandit." He Laosi was a little anxious when he heard that he wanted to stay here alone, and hurriedly turned to Yang Yu said.

"Fourth brother, please be patient and let me think about it." As he smoked the cigarette, Zhu Kaishan's frown never relaxed. After more than ten minutes, he figured out the key and then faced the two of them. Said: "I agree, just do what Xiaoyu said. We have to earn enough money to settle here. If we do this now, when can we collect enough money? I also want to let the three people from my hometown in Dongshan A kid and his mother came here to live together, let’s do it.”

Zhu Kaishan took down the cigarette pot, knocked on the soles of his shoes, and knocked out the burnt ash. After speaking, he sat there without saying a word, waiting for the reaction of Yang Yu and the two of them.

When He Laosi heard Zhu Kaishan's arrangement, he accepted it. There were only three people in total. Now that the two agreed that he would stay and open the kiln, his own opinion was not so important. After all, the minority obeyed the majority.

Yang Yu looked at the dull He Laosi, and said to him immediately: "Fourth Uncle, don't be angry, it's not that we want to abandon you, it's because you are more famous than your godfather. "

"Did the fourth brother hear what Xiaoyu said? I will go mainly to use my name, and we will change when there are too many people." Zhu Kaishan also comforted the fourth brother He.

While the three of them were talking, the outside of the room gradually became lively. A large number of gold diggers got off work, and after having had enough fun outside, they finally came back here to sleep.
