Exiled to Lingnan, my plants are miraculous

After five days of traveling day and night, a team of several thousand people arrived at their destination, a long-developed iron mine at the junction of Yunnan Province and Lingnan Province.

Viewed from a high place, the entire mountain col is densely covered with straw huts, and minerals are also piled up in piles. The bodies of those who are absent from work are hunched over, as thin as skin and bones, and their whole bodies are dirty.

I heard that this place is relatively close to Lingnan, so the absentees are basically fugitives. Not only do they not use money, they don’t have to worry about dead people, and there is no need to worry about the people below making trouble. It is the most ideal absentee. Every time, people will be used until they are skin and bones. Let people go back to recuperate and continue to use up their flesh and blood in the coming year.

This approach is so vicious. It completely treats the prisoners as recyclable livestock. Therefore, the population of Lingnan has always been sparse and it has not become a prosperous big city in Daqian.

Lin Daxuan stood in the team and looked at everything around him curiously. The reddish-brown mineral deposits were piled up into hills one after another, and the simple thatched shacks with ventilation on all sides seemed to tell him that the next two months would not be easy.

It wasn't until he saw the old Kuang Gong who was so skinny and skinny that his heart dropped to the bottom of his heart. Although he had tried his best to imagine the hard work of mining, but when he saw the old Kuang Gong numbly and desperately waiting for the handover, he realized that he was still naive.

"Hurry up, bring your tools and move fast!"

"Follow those in front and don't fall behind."

"What are you looking for? This mine has been open for many years. There are many tunnels. The terrain inside is complicated. Don't run around without someone to guide you. If you get lost, you will starve to death inside and no one will know."

The managers of the mines are all government officials who were not taken seriously and were squeezed out. I have been here for more than ten years. I have seen many of these prisoners being used as livestock, and I don't want them to run amok and lose their lives.

The terrain gets lower as you go inside, and some even have to climb down ladders. After turning countless corners and walking for an unknown amount of time, you can faintly see thick rocks.

"This place is where you will work for the next two months. There are hundreds of mines here. You can allocate them yourself. Do you see the baskets on the ground?"

There were huge baskets crowded together in the corner, stacked on top of each other, as if there were hundreds of them.

"Your dinner today is related to this. It is the end of the last hour, and the rice is put out on time at Xu time. The basket in front of you can be exchanged for two steamed buns, and the two baskets can be exchanged for four. And so on. If you dig a hundred baskets There will also be extra meat.

How much you can eat depends on your own abilities! "

Although the officials have some conscience, they are not very good people. Eating this way is related to the minerals they dig, so there is no way to be cunning.

I still remember when I first came here. At that time, because the mining output was not ideal, I had to deal with my boss several times. After a long investigation, I found out that the prisoners secretly dug a mine and bought their clothes in it.

Taking turns to go in and rest, which seriously slowed down the progress of mining.

Furious, he formulated this rule. Although it was harsh, it was very practical. Since then, the output has gradually increased, and the boss who originally criticized him has become silent.

Even if the most stupid person could guess a little bit, the supervisor in front must have accepted the tribute of the prisoners. Otherwise, as a criminal, how could the prisoners dare to eat and wait for death.

The official didn't look at everyone's expressions, and walked out quietly with his hands behind his back. His attitude was very arrogant in the eyes of everyone.

"How to do?"

Lin Yixu watched as the originally crowded crowd left one after another as the officials left, leaving only the people in Baixiang Village alone.

There was confusion and embarrassment on his face. "First of all, we have to find a hidden mine. Secondly, four to six people should be guarding the entrance of the cave at all times. Finally, when we hand over, it is best not to exceed a hundred baskets, or we divide into two groups and exchange more steamed buns. .”

Feng Shiyun, who has mined many times, stood up. Now he is the only one who understands this place.

"Why can't we exchange for meat? The official promised us his own promise. Is he still cheating?"

Cheng Hui has a very hot temper, a bit of a straight personality, and his ideas are sometimes very simple.

"First, the official said there was meat, but he didn't say how much, how to replace it, or what kind of meat it was. Compared with the steamed buns that can fill the stomach, it is not cost-effective. Mining is manual labor. We also saw those mining before we came in. What have they become? They don’t look human at all.

If we don't eat enough, we may end up even worse than them! "

Lin Dachui on the side didn't know what he thought of, his body trembled unconsciously, and his face looked very ugly.

Lin Daxuan noticed Li Dachui's condition immediately, "Uncle Li, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Seeing this, Feng Shiyun pursed his lips and continued.

"He did the work of two people by himself and gave most of the steamed buns to his mother-in-law. I remember that Li Dachui almost died in the mine. Fortunately, the child was born safely.

Second, there are thousands of people mining in this mine. They are all prisoners of war and jails. Some are extremely vicious people. Sometimes they will go to other teams to rob directly. Those who stay outside the mine are a warning.

If we switch to meat, we will definitely be targeted, and the minerals we finally mined will also be lost. "

Feng Shiyun looked around vaguely, his expression unchanged, but several older people had already understood what he meant. Someone was eavesdropping and accidentally touched Cheng Xiao.

"What are you afraid of? What kind of people are in the prison? They are all gangsters. They are not worthy of taking a single step under this general. Don't worry. They just come. Since they don't know how to behave, I will teach them. Who is this general's heart? good!"

Although Cheng Xiao's arm, where half of the flesh had been shaved off, was saved and the flesh had grown back, his hand was not as smooth and powerful as before, and it looked very ferocious.

Therefore, these words are just a deterrent. I just hope that the other party is really a bully and fears the strong, otherwise it may really lead to a fight.

"Third, when can we not eat meat? The most important thing is to take care of our bodies. Without our body bones, no matter how much we do, we will be making wedding dresses for others."

One word and two words, not only pointing out here, but also pointing out their secret plan.

"Let's find a rich mineral deposit first. We will work here for two months. It would definitely not be appropriate to change places midway."

Because these people had previously occupied all the nearby mines, Baixiangcun and others only settled down in an inconspicuous corner.

After the initial chaos, the mine is now full of clanking sounds. However, the iron ore is still very hard and difficult to get out. What's more, the rock layer is not only soil and iron ore, but also some hard materials. Quartzite, chlorite, pyroxene, calcite, etc., these also seriously slow down the mining of iron ore.
