Chapter 372: Eight Jars of Blood Food
Now that it’s been agreed upon, let’s not think about that matter for now.
Hu Ma and the others didn't say anything more, so they had a full meal first, and then Hu Ma also carried the jar of wine to the entrance of the village.
When I took a closer look, I saw that the horse, which had been infected with countless poisons and had been on the verge of death for a long time, was still breathing. It was just that when it was waiting to die at the beginning, it was lying there with a posture of sacred expectation. .
But now, he is lying down, lazily, with his belly facing the sky.
Seeing Hu Ma coming, it weakly opened its eyes, glanced at it, and then closed them again tiredly, as if it didn't want to pay attention to anyone in the world...
Hu Ma said: "Brother, can you still move? I brought you some wine, why don't you take a sip first and then go on your way?"
The horse closed its eyes and ignored him at all. He didn't force himself to do anything. He put a bowl next to him and poured out most of the wine in the jar. Then he put the jar aside and turned around to go back.
The horse continued to lie there for a long time. The more he smelled it, the more fragrant the wine became.
Finally, I couldn't help it anymore. I turned over, put my mouth into the bowl, and took a small sip. The more I sipped, the more delicious it became. Finally, I couldn't help it anymore. I stretched out my mouth, picked up the jar, lifted it up, and drank it in a slurp. Most of the jar, and then the whole horse, finally started to get confused.
Hu Ma continued talking with a smile on her face: "To put it bluntly, some of the elders in our family make a living by cutting meat, so we know it's not easy for everyone. In addition, our Red Lantern Empress is also famous for her heart. Shan, where is the one who built the temple..."
Hu Ma smiled at everyone and said: "I am here from the Red Lantern Club. I am here to look at the property in her name for our Red Lantern Lady. If it is done well, of course we will be rewarded. If it is not done well..."
“Seeing as we are all members of the family, there is no reason for him to do such cruel things to us.”
Hu Ma also returned to the front of the hall and called over the mine craftsmen who had been waiting eagerly around him, including the village mine leader and his two disciples.
Hu Ma said yes first, and then his face sank slightly and said: "Now that we are here, I see that people are panicked, and there are monsters causing trouble outside. The old and young men are now starting to worry."
The leader of the mine, Zhuang, his two disciples, and obviously a few mine managers were all a little panicked. They looked at the leader of the mine hurriedly, understanding that Hu Ma was clearly trying to win people's hearts. .
“But you have also seen that there are only four or five of us here. In other words, we have no plans to hire meat cutters again, and you guys can keep their jobs.”
"...There is no penalty, but it is necessary for us to take over and take care of ourselves."
When the two apprentices heard this, they stopped talking and sighed lowly. They also winked at the other stewards to indicate that they should be calm.
“…How come we are allowed to do such evil things that deprive people of their food and clothing?”
…”
“Everyone, there is one thing you can rest assured of.”
The people in the mine did not expect that Hu Ma would call them over and actually say this. Their eyes intertwined for a moment, and they were all a little confused.
“If you don’t want to break up with each other, then you might as well say hello nicely.”
But now, it depends on who can solve the problem first.
…”
…”
The leader of the mine slowly shook his head, indicating that they should not make a fuss, and whispered: "He is very capable, and he came down from above. What can you do?"
As he said this, he glanced at the head of the village and mine first, but saw that he just listened silently and had no objection. If it had been in the past, as soon as he said these words, the two sides would have to fight. .
"But we are kind people, but you guys must also be kind. If you are good to me, everyone will have something to eat."
“Besides, who of you can deal with the one outside?”
"But you don't have to worry. Now that we're here, this monster can't harm us in the mine. But before I take over, I have to do what I need to do. I brought the account book I got from the association with me. Presumably your mine also has account books."
"I can burn this thing in the meeting, but I have to take a good plate of the blood food and inventory in this mine."
…”
"ah?"
Including the head of the mine, his two apprentices and several stewards among the surrounding meat cutters, their expressions suddenly changed.
No wonder they didn’t tell them how to deal with the witches when they arrived, but instead called people to talk.
This is the current batch of blood food in the mine...
In the story just told by the head of the mine, regardless of whether it was true or not, regardless of what could be cut from the depths of the blood, and regardless of where the witch came from, Hu Ma and Lao Abacus both discovered something first. The point is:
Before this incident happened in this mine, a lot of blood Tai Sui was dug up, and many of them were even good things with gold patterns...
According to what they said, these baskets of good things haven’t been shipped out yet, so why don’t we take them quickly?
For a steward who comes from a red light club, isn't it normal for us to have to check the accounts?
Don’t pay?
If the mine is not paid, it will be a big deal. Do you think that what you dug out belongs to you?
This is our red light empress's!
After saying the sentence "Check the accounts", Hu Ma looked at the leader of the village and mine standing in the crowd. He was also pale and hesitant. The apprentices on both sides looked at him, seemingly without saying a word. It's time to take action.
But he thought about it for a long time, sighed lowly, waved his hand, whispered a few words to the two apprentices and the steward, and sent these people away.
Not long after, the mine was busy with work, and two jars sealed with black paint were moved over.
The blood food coming out of the mine must be put into the jar as soon as possible and sealed with a seal to avoid attracting anything. The higher the quality, the more so. Through the seal, you can also judge what is in the jar. When Hu Ma saw the seal on the jar, he roughly knew the quality. However, he was not busy opening the seal to check. He just looked at it with a half-smile: "That's all?"
The two apprentices nodded repeatedly, but the leader of the mine looked embarrassed. After a long time, he said: "There is more, a little more."
With that said, he asked people to move it again, and two more jars were moved over.
Hu Ma looked at it and said nothing, but the old abacus said: "I heard you just dug a few baskets, and this jar weighs ten kilograms, but it is usually not full, so it only holds seven or eight kilograms. A basket weighs fifty pounds, and with the jars you have now, I'm afraid..."
When the leader of the mine, Zhuang, turned pale, he rushed to Hu Ma and begged in a low voice: "Manager Hu..."
“Everyone is of the Shousui lineage, you see…”
…”
“We are not unreasonable people…”
Hu Ma smiled at him and lowered his voice: "Brother, as soon as I talked about our respective inheritances, I understood that our master Mr. Zhou is also a well-known brand."
"To be honest, your Tsing Yi Gang is gone. Now the Blood Food Mine belongs to our Red Lantern Club. You want to keep some benefits, I understand. Even in the future, if we all make a living in this mine together, that doesn't count. What."
“But now it’s my first time here, and there’s such a big thing going on outside, so I need to help!”
"We won't shirk it, but do you think you should be more realistic?"
…”
"I…"
The owner of the village and mine didn't know what to say. He lowered his voice and said: "This opportunity is something you will never get once in your life. To be honest with you, I still have two pots there, but you let me stay at least." Do you want me to secretly give you a jar?"
"Need not!"
Hu Ma looked him squarely in the eyes and said, "No matter how much you have there, bring them all."
“Then, I make the decision. You take the two jars back and use them as the hard-earned money of you and your brothers. What do you think?”
…”
Zhuang Mine Leader was stunned for a moment. After a long time, he suddenly smiled bitterly and nodded.
He actually brought people to move it, and not long after, three more jars were moved to their table. Now looking at the dark area in front of them, everyone took a breath, and it even felt a bit unreal.
Eight large jars contain close to ten kilograms of blood food. In total, doesn't it mean that seventy or eighty kilograms of blood food are placed here?
Moreover, there is no need to offer this, you can just keep it in your own hands...
"enough…"
As Hu Ma looked at it, her heart sank slightly.
I came to this mine originally for blood food. As long as I have enough blood food, I can enter the mansion smoothly. However, the gap in my blood food is really not small, and I thought it would be a good waste. Only with hands and feet can you plan...
Who would have expected that as soon as I came here, I would make such a small fortune. Is it enough to just take it?
Suppressing his inner excitement, he took a deep breath, pointed at two of the jars, and said: "Move these mines back first and take a good look at the quality."
"others…"
He stood up and said to Zhou Datong: "Datong, pick a place to live and move everything into our own house."
“I’m going to check the accounts carefully tonight.”
…”
When Zhou Datong heard this, he jumped up excitedly and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay!"
Lao Baanpan suddenly became nervous and said, "What about me? What about me? I can also help check the accounts."
Hu Ma said: "You come to my house to check, it's the same thing."
Seeing everyone getting busy, the head of the village and mine was also surprised and happy. What he was happy about was that Hu Ma actually dared to be the master and assigned two jars to himself. Earlier, this was hidden, but now with his assignment, wouldn't it be? Has he become his own rightful person?
It can be seen that they just moved the jar and left, but they were still a little worried. They looked at the meat cutters outside with their heads stretched out to look at each other, and hurriedly asked: "Is it just checking the accounts?"
“Guanshi Hu, the demon outside is still causing trouble. Should we also discuss a charter?”
…”
“Articles of Association?”
After hearing this, Hu Ma narrowed his eyes and said, "Simple."
“Datong, refill the lantern we brought here with enough oil and hang it on the door!”
"Since they sent a dead crow and asked people to move, let's also hang up red lanterns and tell them that this is our Red Lantern Lady's territory. If the other party doesn't know how to give in, then they are fighting against our Red Lantern Lady. enemy."
“I want to see how bold he is!”
