People from both Beisha and Haran were scattered and distributed to various centers. There were more than 1000 people, and it took a lot of time to group them into groups.Seeing that it was difficult to leave today, Zhong Qingran organized his staff to go to the mountains to cut rattan and weeds, weave hats and shoes.There are lush vegetation in the mountains, and there are countless poisonous bugs. If they can be avoided, they should be avoided as much as possible. The amount of herbs Zhong Qingran brings is limited and cannot be provided unlimitedly.

The time for the return trip was relatively tight, and none of the servants gathered here was idle. Even if Zhong Qingran didn't make a strict request, they didn't dare to act like a master and do nothing.If they don't behave well and are left alone, it's good that they can find a village to take them in. Otherwise, their chances of surviving are really not high.Regardless of the fact that the weather is just right now, it won't be long before winter comes. They will have no food or clothing, and they will starve to death or freeze to death. Unless luck is against the sky, otherwise, the ending will not be very good.

Jian Mingyu led some village guards into the mountains to hunt, Wang Zaiming led the stronger women to pick all kinds of wild vegetables and mushrooms nearby, and Zhong Qingran stayed in the valley to re-register these servants.

Now it's just a temporary grouping, which has great disadvantages. Zhong Qingran is not familiar with them, so he can only do this for the time being. After he understands everyone's skills thoroughly, he can make some adjustments. The situation will be much better in the future. that's all.Skills do not represent a person's ability, many management positions, these people are not competent.It's just that this is the only thing that can be done at present, and it will take time to verify if you want to make more reasonable arrangements.

Although the servants had already realized that the new master was probably going to take them into the mountain, they were still a little flustered when the prediction came true.That is a primitive mountain forest that even the army can hardly conquer. For people like them who can't eat three meals a day, can they still have a chance to survive if they go in?In an instant, panic spread among the crowd.

Emotions are easily contagious, seeing this situation, Zhong Qingran had no choice but to comfort her.

"Follow me, you may still have a good day, I want to let you go, but you really dare to go?" Zhong Qingran didn't throw out a tempting olive branch, and looked at the group in front of him with a half-smile. The servants reunited in the valley after their respective missions.

The unfinished meaning in Zhong Qingran's words made everyone present chill.Smart people can understand when they think about it, those people who Zhong Qingran refused to accept before may not have a good life, at least they can survive. If they dare to leave, the best end is to be sent to places like mines As a coolie, once you enter there, you basically step into the underworld with one foot, and the possibility of getting out safely is extremely slim.

Seeing that they had all figured it out, Zhong Qingran didn't say any more. Some things really didn't depend on his will.He didn't want to scare them either, but the facts were pretty much the same as what he said.The servants also thought the same way, since the matter is a foregone conclusion, it might as well follow Zhong Qingran and give it a try, maybe you will get lucky.

It was the first time for Zhong Qingran to manage so many people, and he felt a lot of pressure. Fortunately, the thinking of the ancients was very different from that of modern people. Apart from being uncomfortable at the beginning, he gradually got used to it.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Zhong Qingran and Jian Mingyu sneaked to the place where the Wuguo was buried, pulled out all the Wuguo, and put them in the tent.

The matter was settled, and they were just waiting to set off on the road. This night, Zhong Qingran was extremely relaxed and slept soundly with Jian Mingyu in his arms.Let's talk about the future, worrying about the future all the time, with a sad face all day long, do you want to pass this day?

Silent all night.

The next day, just after dawn, everyone started to act.Zhong Qingran assigned each department their own tasks, and the division of labor was very clear, so it was possible to avoid duplication and waste of labor as much as possible.Which Shi is responsible for carrying water, which Shi is responsible for collecting firewood... It is clear at a glance, no matter which link goes wrong, someone can be found to take responsibility immediately, and you can't rely on it.In this way, the efficiency is much higher.

You know, Zhong Qingran is not a philanthropist, he will not treat them harshly, but he will not raise them for nothing, if they do well, they will be rewarded, and if they do poorly, they will naturally be punished.Zhong Qingran didn't punish them for such trivial matters, but punished them with reduced meals.If the degree of completion cannot be reached, the meat food should be reduced appropriately until the meat dishes are all reduced.As for the food and vegetables, they were provided in full. Zhong Qingran would not be so mad that he would go over mountains and ridges to keep them full. That would be just asking for trouble for himself.

Let me ask, who can stand such discrimination?Everyone wants to eat and drink well, but the other groups are full of fish and meat, but they are eating dry food that is difficult to swallow. Just looking at it makes people feel uncomfortable. And attack it.

After breakfast, the team set off.Minglei led the way, ten village guards cleared the way, and the other five village guards were divided into two groups. The guards were on both sides of the team, and Zhong Qingran and Jian Mingyu were free to do so.

The carriages in the mountains were impassable, and all the frames of the carriages were dismantled, and the useful ones were kept, and the useless ones were used as firewood. It was really not a waste at all.

Except for those people Zhong Qingran bought in the people's market, the others, under the order of Manager Su, have been raised for several days, and their physical strength can be seen. Under the condition of carrying a heavy load, the first day went smoothly, and they walked faster. Farther than expected.It was originally on the outskirts of the mountain, and compared with the deep mountains and old forests, there were far fewer poisonous insects and ferocious beasts. The mountain roads were not too difficult.

In the team, most of them are young and middle-aged men and women. There are not many old people and children.This was requested by Zhong Qingran. The whole family should either not accept one person, or the whole family would buy it.

On the second day, the itinerary slowed down, and on the third day, it was even slower. After walking for a week, many people had reached the limit of their bodies. If they continued walking, some people would fall down. Camp and rest for the day.

This night, Zhong Qingran asked people to cook a few large pots of medicine to dispel fatigue, everyone had a share, and each had his own supervision, so if anyone dared to drink it, hehe...

Insect repellent powder was limited, so Zhong Qingran only distributed medicine to each of the chiefs. Anyway, when they were marching, they all moved together. As long as the chiefs walked in the middle, it was almost enough. As for the other times, it depended on the situation.

After walking like this for seven days, except for the occasional unlucky people who were bitten by insects, many of the dangers expected by the servants did not appear in front of them, which made everyone seem to be in a dream.Some shallow-minded people think that such encounters are due to their good luck, and their brains are a little more flexible, so they don't think it is a coincidence.

After walking for so long, the servants knew no matter how stupid they were, they were going to enter Hanhai State.Perhaps most people here have never heard of Hanhai Prefecture, but there are always some who have heard of it.If Hanhai Prefecture is so easy to advance, I am afraid that both the Great Zhou Dynasty and Beisha would have occupied it long ago. Since the two countries have nothing to do with Hanhai Prefecture, one can guess that neither of the two countries can conquer the endless mountains in front of them. , This also shows from the side how dangerous the mountains and forests they are in are.But they went deep into the hinterland with so few setbacks, it can be seen that Zhong Qingran and the others are quite capable.

Taking a day off doesn't mean doing nothing.Zhong Qingran didn't dare to make people carry too much weight, which also led to supplementing food and clothing along the way.There is no shortage of food in the mountains. Before each meal, sending people to hunt and gather, and consuming some coarse grains, is enough to ensure their food, but clothes and bedding have to be bought in advance.

It's autumn now, and soon, we will welcome the cold winter. If we don't prepare early, we may not be able to get out of this mountain.

With this in mind, Zhong Qingran placed his camp near a stream. His fur was tanned, but he couldn't live without water.

The footsteps of winter are getting closer and closer, leaving them a day's rest is the limit. When the appointed day comes, Zhong Qingran will continue to move forward with his people, regardless of whether there are still people who have not recovered.

Day after day, climbing in the boundless mountains and forests will make people feel timid.Fortunately, Zhong Qingran and his party had a lot of people, so as soon as such thoughts came up, they were naturally suppressed by the lively scene.

When walking in the mountains, the most fearful thing is nothing but getting lost.Running around in the mountains and forests like a headless fly, with strong abilities, he can even become a "savage" and associate with wild beasts all day long. If he can't stand it, as long as he can't get out of the mountains, one day he will become a poisonous insect and a beast. prey.

In addition, it is miasma, if you accidentally fall into it, you don't know how to die.Zhong Qingran and his party obviously didn't have these two concerns, and Minglei could lead them to avoid these two problems, no matter how bad it was, Zhong Qingran also had a way to solve these two problems.

Taking these two points apart, the most influential thing to people is the poisonous insects and beasts. The steep mountains and forests have become decorations. This road is blocked, at least it can be detoured.

More than half a month passed. At this time, everyone looked tired, but no one dared to complain. What time is it now? Who cares about these things? If they don't hurry up, they are afraid that they will be trapped in the mountains.

Zhong Qingran gathered the clothes on his body, looked at the gray sky above his head with a solemn expression.The temperature is getting colder every day, until today when I got up, it has reached the point where my breath has become foggy. I think it will snow in a few days.This place is no better than the south. Once it snows, don't expect it to melt in a short time.The snow will only accumulate thicker and thicker. If you don't get out of this large forest when you can't walk, the consequences will be unimaginable.
