Chapter 53: We, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, want to make a living on the construction site?

The bed this time was a bit hard. It was far different from the bed in Kaiping Hotel.

And this quilt. Although it is quite warm, it is made of coarse cloth and is incomparable with the goose down quilt of Kaiping Hotel.

It wasn't like this when I woke up last time. Could it be that Ouyang Lun couldn't even afford to repair a big hotel? "Where are we?"

Zhu Yuanzhang knocked his dizzy head with his hand and looked around. The room was not big, about twenty square meters in size. There were four iron frame beds placed on the walls on both sides, which were bunk beds. The door faced There is a stove placed on the wall, and a fire is burning in the stove to keep the whole room warm.

This was the first time Zhu Yuanzhang saw the appearance of the stove. It consisted of a square stove plate, a round stove body and a three-legged stove bottom, and there was also a chimney-like metal round tube sticking out.

"Jiang Yu!"

Zhu Yuanzhang called out, but no one responded.

But soon an old man about the same age as Zhu Yuanzhang came in carrying dark briquettes and added them to the stove.

"Brother, you finally woke up."

After the old man added the briquettes, he said to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Brother, where am I?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked calmly.

"This is the construction site for repairing Fujie County Road!" the old man said.

"Construction site? Why were you sent to the construction site? Where were the people traveling with us assigned?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked quickly.

The old man seemed to be used to the strangeness and patiently explained, "Looking at you, you must be a refugee from other places."

"Our magistrate is so kind-hearted that he helps even the homeless and beggars with their livelihood. This is the only one in the entire Ming Dynasty!"

"Work?" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't quite understand.

"Why are you so stupid? There must be something wrong with your brain, right?" The old man muttered: "Since you have been sent to the construction site, as long as you work hard, you will be able to eat and clothe yourself. You will have rice porridge and rice every day. Steamed buns with pickles, and you can still eat meat every now and then, which is infinitely better than being a homeless beggar!"

"As for your companions, most of them have been arranged to other rooms. On the construction site, rooms are divided according to age. According to the words of the prefect, if the age difference is too big, there will be a generation gap and it will be difficult to get along."

"If you wake up, quickly put on the work clothes and safety helmet on the bedside, we are going to work."

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned. He finally understood. His majestic Ming Emperor was actually assigned to build roads on the construction site? ?

What a waste of time it would take to drink! I am the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and I am no longer the beggar Zhu Yuanzhang. How can I just beg for a living on this construction site?

"Cough cough!"

"Brother, let me ask you, who is in charge here?" Zhu Yuanzhang sat up from the bed, his expression became majestic, and then asked.

"Of course it's the supervisor sent by the prefect's office. What's the matter with you? We ordinary workers can't see the supervisor." The old man said truthfully.

"Haha, we are not ordinary people. Go and call that supervisor for us!" Zhu Yuanzhang ordered with a wave of his hand.

The old man glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang suspiciously, and then walked out.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw the old man going out, he thought he was really going to call the supervisor. He relaxed and began to study the work clothes and safety helmets beside the bed.

"These work clothes are all thick cotton-padded clothes, and the workmanship is also very good. There is also this helmet made of rattan. This hat has a good defensive effect even if it is worn on the head of a soldier. It is interesting. Ouyang Lun is talking about these He has done a good job in this aspect." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded secretly.

"But forcibly arresting homeless beggars to work is simply tyranny!" In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, the old man must have been lying to him. He ate rice porridge, steamed buns, pickles every day, and meat every now and then. What kind of food was this!

I think back when there was a rebellion, if there was such food, tens of thousands of troops could be recruited in minutes, and they would be able to fight wherever they wanted. "This stove is also very interesting. There is no flame or smoke, but it can make the whole room so warm. The shape of the briquettes is also different from what I have seen."

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was looking at the stove.

The old man walked in with a middle-aged man wearing a supervisor's uniform, pointed at Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "Head of the class, he is the one who asks me questions and wants to see the supervisor. I suspect that he wants to be lazy and not work! "

The supervisor held a whip, looked Zhu Yuanzhang up and down, and asked in a deep voice: "Please tell me your name and place of birth!"

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head, put his hands behind his back, and said proudly: "You don't deserve to know our name and place of origin!"

"Go and call your biggest official here!"

Hearing this, the supervisor laughed and said, "You have become a beggar, and you are still so arrogant. I don't think you look like a beggar!"

"Even if you still have some discernment, we are indeed no longer beggars. Let us and our people go quickly. We still have important things to deal with!" Zhu Yuanzhang said solemnly.

"I don't think you look like a beggar, but more like an enemy spy!" The supervisor said calmly: "Just now, we identified several enemy spies among the homeless beggars we rescued, and they will be escorted to the government office later. After the Lord Magistrate’s trial, he killed them all!”

Um! ?

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, what the hell?You actually think of me as an enemy spy? "Asshole! Do you know who we are?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang roared.

"I don't care who you are, I think you are very suspicious! Come here, tie him up!" The squad leader waved his hand, and two big men immediately stood up from behind him, and they killed Zhu Yuanzhang in three strokes. Tie tightly.

Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked, how dare these people treat him like this.

"How dare you tie us up!"

"I'll give you a chance to untie me quickly, or we will destroy all nine of your tribes!"

The last time Zhu Yuanzhang was tied up like this was when he was a soldier in the rebel army and killed the timid general who led the army. Then he was caught and beheaded by the leader of the rebel army Guo Zixing.

After that, he was the one who kidnapped someone else!

"The tone is quite loud!" The squad leader's eyes lit up. Recently, the superiors have been constantly reminding them to be careful not to infiltrate the spies of the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty. After all, the entire Yong'an Mansion is located on the border and is the focus of the spies of the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

Although the Beiyuan people were driven to the Mobei area by the Ming Dynasty, these Beiyuan people were still arrogant and extremely arrogant.

He is so arrogant and has the demeanor of an ordinary person. At least he is the leader of Beiyuan's secret agents.

The prefect has long issued an order. If you capture a Beiyuan spy, you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver. If it is confirmed to be the leader, you will be rewarded with 5000 taels of silver, which is a five-fold increase! The class leader couldn't help but sigh inwardly, today is such a lucky day!

"Take him away and let him see what happens when he becomes Beiyuan's spy first!"

The class leader said solemnly.

"Asshole! Why don't you let us go!"

"If you dare to hurt us even a little bit, your whole family will not survive!"

"We are not Beiyuan spies!"
