Chapter 375 Before Dawn
Gardi sighed helplessly, and complained to Brother Qi, "What kind of brother do you think you are? You think that I, who is handsome and unrestrained, would covet his wine." After speaking, he looked at Brother Ming with a smirk Son, "Boy, don't you know? Your wine is not as good as mine!"

After all, Haha laughed.

what?
Brother Ming immediately put down the wine bag in his hand, ran to Gardi's side, and wanted to snatch the wine bag from Gardi's hand before he even opened his mouth.Gardi reacted very quickly, but he didn't want Brother Ming to catch him.

Brother Qi couldn't help laughing when he saw them making a fuss.

"Okay, stop arguing, brother Ming, you too, have been here for such a long time, can't you drink good wine and bad wine? Even if I have the heart to give you bad wine, Gardi won't Be patient. You drink quickly and go to work, the craftsmen don’t know when to start work, they are all waiting.”

Brother Qi said, and sat down on the chair next to Gardi.

Gardi pushed Brother Ming away in disgust, "That's right, listen to your brother, don't come and grab my drink, you still have business to do."

Brother Ming was also tired from tossing around, and sat down on a chair beside him, "Isn't it just to bring the craftsmen here? Why is it so difficult?"

Gardi pushed Brother Qi with his elbow, "If the craftsmen work harder, based on the original underground camp, it should take less than three months to build it?"

Brother Ming laughed and said, "How can it take three months? If all the craftsmen are as handsome and unrestrained as me, it will definitely be completed in less than a month."

Both Brother Qi and Gardi glanced at Brother Ming with disdain, "You're getting worse and worse, you, you started talking nonsense after just two sips."

Gardi looked at Brother Qi.

Brother Qi thought for a moment, and said: "The camp under the land we are in was originally an underground castle. Batu doesn't know this secret yet. It would be faster without his interference. However, I always feel that the underground castle It is more appropriate to fix things firmly. After all, our people will hide in it, and even our belongings will be hidden here. If those craftsmen rush to deal with it, they will repair it casually on the original basis and fool the past , or just do some superficial work, and we will suffer at that time. The most important thing is that we have to expand the underground camp, the project is huge, and the craftsmen need to be more careful."

Gardi nodded, "What you said makes sense, I will supervise it more."

Brother Qi put the wine bag back on the table and got up.

"Where are you going?"

Brother Ming got curious and got up.

Qi Geer turned around and told Ming Geer: "Stay here, I'll go and see how the workshop is doing recently. After Batu was destroyed for a while, many workshops needed to be repaired, and there were fewer craftsmen, and there was not enough manpower. Can some people be sent over to help?"

Gardi stood up and patted Brother Qi on the shoulder, "I'll go with you."

Brother Qi nodded.

Brother Ming was not happy, "Why can Gardi go with you, but I can't? Who is your real brother?"

Gardi turned his head and joked to Brother Ming: "Because you have important tasks tomorrow, and it's getting late, you'd better wash up and go to sleep."

"Isn't it just bringing craftsmen here? What's so difficult about this task? You must have gone to the bonfire party behind my back, and you are too unkind." Brother Ming looked aggrieved, and at the same time quickly climbed up from the chair He got up and hugged Gardi's arm tightly, as if he was going wherever Gardi was going.

Brother Qi looked at Brother Ming, and said in an elder brother's tone: "Stop messing around, tomorrow's task is not that simple, we must ensure the safety of all craftsmen. There are many people and the goal is big. If people from Batu find out It will be troublesome.”

"Will Batu find that those artisans will make things difficult for us? Brother, why is Batu so boring? What's more, it's too late for him to be busy with his lame leg now, so there is no time to stop our artisans."

The more Qi Geer and Gardi rejected him, the more he wanted to follow to see what happened.

However, after seeing Brother Qi's firm eyes, Brother Ming hesitated for a moment, and had no choice but to say: "Okay, just leave me, an unlucky bastard, here to guard."

After mumbling, he sat back in his chair and continued drinking.

Gardi and Qi Geer went through the night to the nearest workshop.

The lights were on in the workshop, and the craftsmen were rushing to make the utensils destroyed by Batu's people overnight.

Seeing Gardi and Brother Qi coming, the craftsmen quickly stopped their fellows and came over to salute.

Gardi asked the craftsmen to sit down without ceremony.

There were shavings and sawdust everywhere on the ground, and there was not even a clean stool. Gardi and Qi Geer didn't care about that much, and they sat on the ground just like the craftsmen.

"You don't have to hurry, you can do it in time during the day." Qi Geer saw an old man, his eyes were not very good, but he still persisted.

The old man smiled at Brother Qi and Gardi, the wrinkles on his face were piled together, and under the light of the oil lamp, he looked extremely kind.

"The sooner this workshop reopens, the better. My grandson and other children from our side all said that they want to eat canned food. The canned food on the grassland is very cheap, and everyone can afford it. It is the most suitable Coaxes the mouth of the child. The crying child will stop crying as soon as he hears that there are cans to eat. But now, all the workshops have been destroyed by the people in Batu, and there are no more cans. Crying in the house."

What the old man said was true. Gardi passed by the market a few times and saw many children clamoring for their parents to buy canned food.

To be honest, these canning workshops on the grassland don't make much money, and if they don't manage well, they will lose a little money.However, Dong Rong just wanted to make canned food available to the poor children on the grasslands, so she would rather pay a little bit of compensation, would rather set the price lower, and open these workshops.

A young guy shyly said: "I don't want wages, I volunteer to help."

"No, you must give what is due." Brother Qi insisted, this is also the truth his mother taught him.

The young man quickly waved his hand, "No, no, I just want to open the workshop early so that I can buy two cans of food and go back to coax my...wife..."

Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter, and Brother Qi, who was always serious, also showed a smile on his face.

Brother Qi patted the young man beside him on the shoulder lightly, "Just take some canned food from us and go back."

After all, Brother Qi asked the buddy to take out five cans of canned food from the warehouse of the workshop. These were just a few surviving goods, and they wrapped them in linen bags and handed them to the young man.

"Go back, you are just newly married, it's the time when the couple needs sweetness." Brother Qi said seriously, and at the same time took out some broken silver from his pocket and put it in the young man's hand.

The craftsmen all laughed and booed, "Go back, there is a wife waiting for you."

"Hahahaha, let's go back."

The young man scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, laughed twice, bowed to Brother Qi, and bowed to Gardi before leaving the workshop.

"Has the people from Batu come to trouble the workshop again?"

Seeing that everyone was a little quieter, Gardi asked.

The craftsmen shook their heads and said no, and the other workshops were not attacked again.

Gardi nodded, suddenly thought of something, and said to Brother Qi: "It's not an option to continue like this. If Batu's attention is on the workshop again, wouldn't we have to rest the workshop again? Why don't we send some The troops are around the workshop, leaving Batu's people nowhere to attack. In the past, they used patrols to protect everyone's safety, but there are advantages and disadvantages to doing so, and Batu cannot be completely deterred."

Brother Qi nodded, "Tomorrow we will send some soldiers over."

Brother Qi filled the remaining 20 cans with other craftsmen and took them back to let his children satisfy their hunger.

After finishing all this, it was already midnight, so Gardi and Brother Qi left the workshop.

Gardi knew that Brother Qi's visit to the workshop in person was definitely not as simple as just looking at the situation in the workshop.However, he couldn't figure out Brother Qi's thoughts, so he had to follow behind Brother Qi silently.

The moonlight was weak, and Gardi and Qi Geer were walking on the silent street. The rubbing sound of their feet on the soil was very clear, just like the bones of the earth being trampled.

Gardi, who was following Brother Qi, suddenly understood, "Do you want to check again on the road that Brother Ming will pass tomorrow, so as to ensure that Brother Ming can arrive safely with the craftsmen?"

Brother Qi nodded, but also sighed helplessly, "The road is too long, and all we can do is to ensure the safety of dozens of miles around. Batu is becoming more and more cunning and unscrupulous. , we have to be careful."

Gardi nodded, "Don't worry, there are our people in other places, and they will protect Brother Ming. We are developing better and better, and more and more people are coming to us. People are relentless and extremely cruel. Many people dare not let their relatives go to him to serve as soldiers after hearing about it. If this continues, we will get better and better."

Brother Qi nodded, "I hope so."

The next day, Brother Ming set out early to meet the craftsmen.

Along the way, Brother Ming was very relaxed and at ease. Occasionally, unknown birds flew by, and Brother Ming would whistle a little to tease the birds, causing them to flutter and fly several feet away.Seeing the frightened look of the bird, Brother Ming laughed.

Brother Qi is really careful, isn't he just a contact person? Seeing that he is nervous, he forced Brother Ming to go to bed early.

Especially when he saw the teams arranged by Qi Geer and Gardi to protect him on the way, Ming Geer felt that Qi Geer and Gardi were too sensitive.Now that Batu has a lame leg, he can't run even if he runs, Brother Ming.

"drive--"

"drive--"

Riding the horse and raising the whip, the speed of the team is getting faster and faster.Brother Ming is like a runaway horse, running on the grassland, laughing, and blowing a cheerful whistle...

Galdi and Qi Geer stood on a high place and saw Ming Geer's team going further and further away.Gardi patted Brother Qi's arm, "Don't worry, although that kid is a bit arrogant and careless in doing things, he is not a muddleheaded person."

Brother Qi frowned slightly.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Gardi asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

Brother Qi's face was full of worry, "I always feel that Batu will not be really quiet this time."

Gardi advised him, "Don't worry too much, Batu doesn't know what those craftsmen do at all, why did he have trouble with a group of craftsmen? Since his leg was lame last time, he has settled down. Many, don't worry, he won't take action. What's more, even if we do, we can handle it."

Brother Qi was still worried, and kept looking at Brother Ming's back that was getting further and further away.

Gardi's eyes also fell on Brother Ming who was getting smaller and smaller, and suddenly understood Brother Qi's worry.
