Chapter 171 Residents Don't Know Good People
Brother Roaring quickly agreed, for fear that Zheng Qiu would change his handling method again.
"We all listen to the adults, and we will do whatever the adults want us to do..."
The surrounding residents whispered, apparently dissatisfied with Zheng Qiu's handling, but no one stood up to object, they just secretly pointed at Zheng Qiu.
Zheng Qiu glanced around and found that Sleepy Tiger Hu Dali was gone: "Where is Sleepy Tiger?"
The onlookers also turned their heads to look for it.
"Where's Sleepy Tiger? He was still here just now."
"It must have sneaked away!"
"Yes, he fled in fear of crime."
Zheng Qiu pointed to Brother Huo Ming and said, "Since you accept the employment, the first task is to capture Hu Dali. It must be intact and tied up firmly, and brought to the dung drying room and handed over to the residents for disposal."
Seeing that the two of them didn't move, he raised his voice a bit: "What are you doing standing there, catch them quickly! Don't you want to be hired?"
"No, don't want, want..."
The sudden increase in volume startled the two of them, and they answered incoherently. Brother Rang Ming pushed his younger brother, and hurriedly ran towards the street, looking for Hu Dali who had slipped away.
When the two disappeared, old man Yang cautiously asked: "My lord, just let them go like this. What if they don't come back? Wouldn't it be letting the tiger go back to the mountain?"
When he asked this question, the surrounding residents also gathered around, and they all agreed, saying that Zheng Qiu should not let the two go, nor should he deal with it so lightly, and he must pay for his life.
Dozens of people chattered at one another, making Zheng Qiu's head swell from what he said.
He raised his face and shouted: "Stop making noise! You want those two brothers to pay for their lives, go by yourself, I will definitely not stop you."
After yelling, he left a group of frightened residents behind, turned around and walked into the house, and closed the iron door heavily.
Old man Yang was the first to come back to his senses, standing in front of the crowd and persuading them earnestly: "Look, don't say anything if you don't know what to say, it must be difficult for you to let those two brothers die.
He kindly helped us get ahead, we have to trust..."
A resident interrupted old man Yang: "He is stronger than those two brothers, just beat him directly, there is no difficulty."
"Old man Yang, you just met him today, how do you know his temper, what if he is the same as Sleepy Tiger?"
"It makes sense. To prevent those two cultivators from taking their lives is definitely protecting them."
"Old man Yang, didn't you say you wanted us to move things? Now that the iron gate is tightly closed, you must have been tricked by that kid."
Old man Yang fought with all the heroes, trying to persuade them one by one, but the residents didn't want to believe that there are good people in this world who appear out of thin air.
After a while, a thin young man came running from a distance and told everyone that Sleepy Tiger had been caught and was tied up in front of the gate of the dung drying house.
Hearing this, the crowd stopped discussing, turned around and rushed towards the excrement drying room.
Zheng Qiu sitting inside heard everything the residents said outside.
He stretched out his hand to wipe the table and smashed a handful of gold and silver onto the ground. He didn't know whether it was depression or anger, mixed feelings.
What happened to this group of people, I was kind enough to help, but I was labeled as a gangster, and I was scolded for doing good deeds.
Bang bang, the iron door was smashed,
The last two figures came in despondently, bowed their waists and stood in front of Zheng Qiu.
These two were the roaring brothers who were going to catch Sleepy Tiger. They tied Sleepy Tiger outside the dung drying room, and made a detour before the residents arrived.
They waited until the residents had left before they showed up and entered the house to meet Zheng Qiu.
Seeing the gold and silver scattered on the ground, the two knew that Zheng Qiu was in a bad mood, and they heard most of what the residents were talking about outside just now.
Among them, the elder brother said tentatively: "My lord, you don't need to get angry, these people are not worthy of help."
The younger brother also echoed, "Yeah, these people are illiterate and greedy for petty gain. Helping them is helping a white-eyed wolf. It's useless."
Crack, Zheng Qiu patted the table and stared at Brother Rang Ming: "What do you mean, do you want to kill people like you?"
The elder brother quickly waved his hands: "That's not what it means. What we did was bad and should be punished by the adults. We just feel sorry for the adults. These people don't understand the good intentions of the adults."
"My lord, my brother is telling the truth. Before Hu Dali took over this place, these residents fought and robbed every day. They bought their sons and daughters for water and rations. There is no good person."
Brother nodded again and again: "Yes, there is a saying in the Great Desolation City that kindness never exists on the edge of life and death. These residents will do anything to stutter..."
"Enough, talking so much, don't you just want me to stand by and stand by, to prove that what you did is not so bad."
Zheng Qiu interrupted their conversation, patted the gold and silver on the table and said: "I don't care what these residents think, anyway, I have a clear conscience.
Your next task is to move out all the gold, silver, furniture, and dung cakes in the yard and return them.
Then you go... um, what's your name? "
The elder brother bowed and replied, "My lord, my name is Yu Hong."
The younger brother replied, "My name is Yu Ming."
"Yu Hong, Yu Ming, you two return the good things, go to Liesha Treasure Hunting Team station, find Captain Meng. Tell him, you are people hired by me, Zheng Qiu, and then help the Treasure Hunting Team work.
I will come to check at any time, and I am not allowed to be lazy. All the money I earn will be converted into gold and silver and distributed to the residents here. "
Brother Roaring had a look of surprise on his face. With the two of them's cultivation, there was no Treasure Hunting Team at all. Now they can work in Liesha Team, which is a chance that fell from the sky.
"Thank you, my lord, thank you, my lord!" The two brothers kept bowing and thanking each other repeatedly.
"Well, you guys should move things and return them. You are not allowed to keep them privately." Zheng Qiu stood up, said a word, pushed the door and left the room.
The sun has already slanted, but there is still some time before nightfall, Zheng Qiu decided to go to Boss Ning's Dahuang Supermarket to see which products are the best sellers.
Walking along the streets of the market, he looked left and right to observe the shops on both sides. Occasionally, a long stream of light flashed above his head, which was a bold practitioner flying.
Zheng Qiu was envious when he saw other people flying. He had tried many times, but his own strength was weak, and he couldn't even lift up a piece of paper, let alone lift up a weapon, and then stand on top of it.
The energy cultivated in the "Green Green Jue" has the strange power to catalyze the birth of seeds and turn people into meat balls, but it does not have the driving force of normal energy.
However, in the chaotic place of the Great Wilderness, being able to fly is almost the same as not being able to fly, because there is no obstacle in the sky, and it will become a living target for the practitioners below at any time.
Most of the cultivators walk obediently on the ground and never take off in the air. Only a few daring ones dare to fly around with their lights on.
Soon, the golden and red copper signboard of Dahuang Supermarket came into Zheng Qiu's sight. At this time, there were two carriages parked at the gate of the supermarket, and four or five big men were taking the boxes off the carts and carrying them into the gate one after another.
