Chapter 515: Working Day and Night

Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

This time, Lu Shen, Meng Xun, and the others figured out what these people were here for.

Especially Meng Xun. He felt that he was simply an idiot. Fortunately, it was a false alarm.

However, he did not know about the gold mine in the mountains. This matter could be big or small.

He turned his head and took a closer look at Lu Shen. He felt that he looked familiar.

“You are Lord Lu?”

“You are Lord Meng?”

“Nice to meet you!”

“Nice to meet you too!”

The bearded man thought, “Are these two crazy?

Still pretending to be an official, tsk!

The old village chief had already explained what he meant. The people who came over also understood and made way for him. They let him look for that lord and ask if he needed so many people.

The old village chief passed by those people and saw Lu Shen.

“Sir, you came at the right time.”

The bearded man listened for a while. It turned out that he was the one with the problem. He had offended a real person. It was over. Could it be that he didn’t want him to dig anymore?!

Before the bearded man, who had already made up his mind, could apologize to Lu Shen and the others, Lu Shen and Meng Xun were invited into the village by the old village chief.

According to MO Ruyue, the more the merrier.

However, if so many people wanted to dig at the same time, they would be able to dig out an entire mountain. This was not what MO Ruyue wanted.

Besides, she couldn’t afford to move the entire mountain.

MO Ruyue went to Lu Shen again and asked him if he had already surveyed the terrain and what was the best course to take.

“Princess, don’t worry. We’ve been here for a few days, and we’ve personally dug.”

As he spoke, he took out a simple topographic map that he had drawn.

“Princess, please take a look. This path is the most suitable.”

MO Ruyue took a look at it and expressed that she did not understand the red string, but it was fine as long as they understood it.

County Magistrate Wu said that Lu Shen was an outstanding person in the Ministry of Works who inspected the terrain of the mountain range. If he did not have some skills, he would not be able to sit in that position.

“Then I’ll leave these people to you. You can let them dig in batches. For example, if there are 100 people, 50 people today, and 50 people tomorrow, everyone will have a chance every day.”

“The most important thing is to ensure everyone’s safety. I won’t allow any accidents to happen.”

After MO Ruyue finished speaking, Lu Shen nodded and promised that he would ensure the safety of the commoners.

Lu Shen also felt Princess Ming Yue’s kindness. After interacting with her twice, he could feel that she cared about the people.

Even the first time they met, Princess Ming Yue had told them that they could work hard, but not risk their lives. Safety first.

The first time he heard it, he was shocked.

MO Ruyue saw that many of the people were dressed in rags, and those who looked pale were obviously from poor families.

“If they dig more than a hundred catties of stones every day, you can add a few more copper coins.”

“Don’t deduct their money. I’ll investigate when the time comes.”

“If you work hard, I won’t treat you badly.”

Lu Shen once again promised to get everything done for MO Ruyue.

He was also a farmer himself, so he had different feelings for farmers. After being influenced by MO Ruyue, he would not fool the commoners.

The hundreds of people who came to prepare to open the mountain were full of energy.

Some families had all come, leaving their children at home. They were counting on them to mine for food this winter. They might even be able to live a rich year.

Lu Shen calculated that at most sixty to seventy people would be enough to excavate the stones every day. Therefore, he followed MO Ruyue’s suggestion and paid them according to the number of stones they excavated.

Each person dug out 200 catties of stones every day, which was 15 wen, 400 catties and 30 wen, and so on, which was 100 catties and 7 wen and 5 coins.

When those people heard that the salary was calculated according to the amount of work, they were very happy. However, when they heard that only 70 people could work every day, they panicked again.

There were so many of them. Who did it every day?

“Old Brother Qin, we came early in the morning. With our relationship, you have to let us register our names no matter what!”

“Brother Qin, we’re cousins! You have to let our village register!”

“Go away. In terms of relatives, my mother is Brother Qin’s biological aunt!”

Before that person could finish speaking, he was pulled to the side.

“Uncle, Uncle, you’re my biological uncle!” “Second Uncle, you’re my biological second uncle!”

“Brother, you’re my biological brother!”

“Father!” “Get lost~”

“How shameless!”

MO Ruyue looked at those people who were trying to get close to their relatives. They were from a small village, and it was normal for them to be related to their relatives before the Five Blessings. However, someone had already called him father. She could not bear to watch them.

“Father!”

“If you shout again, I’ll beat you up!’

The person who called him father was right next to the bearded man. The bearded man only wanted to hit him when he heard this person’s shameless call.

“This big brother, can you move aside?”

Before he could finish, the bearded man pulled him aside.

“Stop, stop. Who’s your big brother? I don’t know you. Let me tell you, it’s useless to try to build a relationship with me.”

The bearded man looked as if he didn’t want to come near him.

“Son, you’re back!”

The old village chief’s eyes suddenly lit up as he looked at the person who called him father. That person was not someone else but his son.

“Father?”

The old village chief’s son looked at this scene and was confused. What was the village doing? Why were there so many people blocking the entrance?

He had listened to his father yesterday and discussed with his wife about bringing the whole family back. In the end, he was blocked outside the village and could not enter the village. His wife and children were in the carriage outside the village. He came over to see what was going on.

He did not expect his father to be so popular.

“Father!”

“Father!”

Seeing that the old village chief had actually agreed, two of them also called out.

Before the old village chief could say a word to his son, he was about to faint again from the shouts of those people.

“Dang, dang, dang!’

The sound of the gong was unusually soft. “All of you shut up. Don’t shout!”

For a moment, no one dared to breathe loudly.

“This is my biological son!”

“Make way for my son to go home first!”

“As for all of you, since so many of you are here, you will naturally come up with a plan. It’s useless for you to argue with me. I’m not the one who pays.”

“Those who want to do it are all waiting.”

Everyone made way for the old village chiefs son’s carriage to enter the village.

The bearded man was extremely regretful. Why was he so unlucky?

Was it too late to apologize now?

Meanwhile, MO Ruyue had already started discussing with Lu Shen and the others. Meng Xun was also invited to MO Ruyue’s house with a dejected face.

The construction team under Meng Xun had all gone back after figuring out the reason. The princess’ manor was almost completed, and they wanted to finish it as soon as possible and go home.

It would be good if so many people could dig together, but they could not all dig at once. They only needed one cave.

“With so many people, we really can’t use them all. We can’t even travel day and night!’

Lu Shen was also a little worried. He did not expect so many people to come. It was difficult to see who would stay and who would leave. ‘Got it. Since you all want to do it, then work day and night!”

MO Ruyue decided. “Working day and night?”

“Yes, I am.”

“Dig from the two ends of the route you’re looking at to the middle. With this distribution, the people in the four classes will not stop during the day and night. Moreover, everyone has work to do every day, so they can dig through the mountain faster.”

Heh, she’s really quick-witted!
