Chapter 9966 Relatives
On the way, I met some people who knew Gu Qing. When they curiously asked about the identities of Yun Chujiu and the other four, Gu Qing said that they were his distant relatives, and then changed the subject.
Most people will not ask any more if they are interested, but there are also those who are not.
"Distant relatives? I haven't seen any relatives in your family for so many years. How come four of them came all at once?
Which city is it from? "
Fortunately, Yun Chujiu and Gu Qing made up an argument in the morning, and Gu Qing was able to deal with it with ease.
"They came from Xuelin City, they are all distant relatives of my parents, my father died early, so they lost contact.
A few days ago, didn't I go to Xuelin City, so I continued. "
In fact, Gu Qing was a little puzzled, why did these four young people fabricate their identities? Could it be that there is some unspeakable secret?
But he didn't ask anything in the end, and he planned to wait until he was familiar with it.
Yun Chujiu found that although it was just dawn, there were already many people on the street, and most of them were heading for the North City Gate.
It is estimated that they either dig ice grass or cold stones, and they have to do this for their livelihood.
Sure enough, after leaving the city gate, most people walked in the same direction.
Even in the morning, the temperature outside the city was still hot, and the three of them, except Yun Chujiu, were sweating profusely soon.
Yun Chujiu found that the aborigines like Gu Qing must have adapted to the hot weather. Although they were sweating on their foreheads, they were much better than Chi Wu and the others.
Yun Chujiu didn't want to be too conspicuous, and she also pretended to be sweating.
She has been observing the terrain and environment along the way, and found that the gravel here is light gray, but there is still no grass growing.
"Qingzi! This way!" Someone in the distance waved towards this side.
Gu Qing said to Yun Chujiu and the others: "Go, come with me!"
Yun Chujiu noticed that there were quite a few people gathered there, and she thought to herself, probably this is a small team.
Yes, where there are people, there will be fights.
Although she didn't know the specific situation of the ice grass, but mining must compete for territory, naturally the more people the better.
"Qingzi, are these young people relatives of your family?" An old man asked.
Gu Qing repeated the same rhetoric again: "Job, they can't stay idle at home, if they insist on coming out with me to dig ice grass, I'll bring them."
That Jober laughed heartily: "Young people just have to work harder! Let's go together!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man standing behind him said:
"Uncle, it's a good thing to have a lot of people, but do some rules have to be agreed in advance? It's the so-called villain before the gentleman."
Qiao Bo frowned: "You mean the share money? The four of them are just joining in the fun, so the share money will be waived?"
Gu Qing is a face-saving person, so he hurriedly said: "No, no, one yard is one yard, and I will pay for their share.
This is a well-established rule, and I cannot make an exception just because they are my relatives. "
Seeing what he said, Job nodded, "Okay, let's do this."
The crowd continued on their way, and many people joined the team on the way.
Gu Qing took a chance and said: "Job is the captain of our team. He has some friendship with my father, so I always call him Job."
Yun Chujiu asked the middle-aged man's identity again, and Gu Qing told her that the man was Qiao Wentong, Qiao Bo's nephew.
On the way, Yun Chujiu also saw many teams like them. At the beginning, everyone followed the same route, but after walking for an hour, the direction changed.
Yun Chujiu was even more sure of the previous guess. These people had already divided their spheres of influence, and they were all digging ice grass in fixed areas.
