Chapter 1139 It’s all fate
Zhou Guo smiled and nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."
Wu Lazi looked forward and was startled into a cold sweat. He saw thousands of people standing in an open space not far away.
Everyone held a big knife in his hand, their eyes were extremely sharp, and their aura was terrifying.
They stood there like a sharp sword ready to be unsheathed at any time.
Before they even started fighting, she knew that the people behind her were no match for her and couldn't even match a finger of theirs.
Such people are probably only found in the military. She has dealt with many bandits over the years, but none of them has such an aura.
Zhou Guo said to her, "This is my top manager, Wu Jiang. Everyone calls him Manager Wu. You two should get to know each other. We will inevitably have many dealings in the future."
Wu Jiang bowed and said, "Master Wu, we are still a family."
Wu Lazi forced a smile and said, "Really? Your last name is Wu, and mine is Wu too. Nice to meet you."
She looked at all these people and asked tentatively, "How long have you been here? Are you here to pick someone up with so many people?"
The brothers behind him looked at the crowd not far away who were watching with eager eyes and swallowed their saliva. The opponent was like a ferocious leopard and they seemed unable to defeat it.
This young master looked noble and indeed had strength. Fortunately, they did not do anything stupid to him, otherwise, everyone in the village would have been in trouble.
Wu Jiang said: "A few days ago, we received a letter from our master and brought people here to pick her up. We didn't come here specifically for you."
It's just a side trip.
Zhou Guo said: "They are here to pick me up. They knew I was on the mountain, so they were waiting for me at the foot of the mountain."
Wu Lazi nodded like a sleepwalker. For a moment, he didn't know where he was and his brain couldn't think at all. He just felt that everything seemed a little weird. They were still on the mountain yesterday, so why did they go down the mountain today?
Moreover, how did Zhou Guo, who was on the mountain, get in touch with the people down the mountain?
If they didn't come down today, would these people attack the mountain?
Zhou Guo said: "Don't worry, they just don't trust me. After all, your place is a den of bandits."
Wu Lazi held back and really wanted to ask them if Wu Jiang would have brought his men to attack them if they didn't come down the mountain.
But when they thought about it, they had already come down the mountain, left the mountain and their families, and promised the old and young in the mountain that they would lead them to live a good life and never be bandits again.
Moreover, Zhou Guo had asked questions again and again when he went down the mountain. Once they were down the mountain, there was no turning back. They could no longer turn back.
Zhou Guo was discussing the next itinerary with Wu Jiang. There were two more bandit dens passing by, so they would take them out while they were at it. With more than 2,000 people plus those who had just come down from the mountain, there were more than 3,000 people in total. It shouldn't be difficult to take out two bandit dens.
Wu Jiang said: "It's just that the terrain on the mountain is a bit steep, easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you want to attack it by force, it will probably be difficult to take it down in a short time."
The locations of bandits’ lairs are all similar.
Zhou Guo said: "It's okay, we won't attack by force, we can lure them, if that doesn't work, we can just deliver them to your door."
Just like this time, they delivered them to the door, and the next day they brought back so many brothers without any effort. What a great thing.
When Wu Lazi heard that they were going to wipe out the other two bandit dens, for some reason, he was actually delighted and took the initiative to say, "Sir, I know the leaders of these two gangs. Let me go meet them and I'll persuade them to stop."
Zhou Guo nodded readily, "Okay, since you know them, then go. We are all acquaintances and it's easy to talk to each other. It's better to live a good life and have hope at the foot of the mountain than to be a bandit in the mountain."
Wu Lazi said, "I know. I'll try my best to persuade them all to come down. Life has been hard for everyone these past few years. Instead of staying in the mountains, it's better for them to be escorts for you. Being an escort is not like fighting in a war. It's always more stable."
As she spoke, she convinced herself and felt that what Zhou Guo said before was right. The opportunity was given to them and they had to seize it. This was their only chance to change their destiny. If they let it go, they didn't know what would be waiting for them in the future.
The two groups met and walked forward in silence.
More than half of our people are from the Xu family army, and the remaining small half are government soldiers. The Xu family army has always had strict military discipline, and they have been on raids and fighting all year round. They are not allowed to make any sound, and this time is no exception, no one says a word.
Seeing that they didn't say anything, the government officials didn't dare to say anything either.
Although they didn't know Zhou Guo's background, they knew he must be someone powerful.
In all their lives, they have never seen a private person who could borrow so many people from the government. She herself has so many people, and no one knows who they are. With so many soldiers, the government is not afraid that she will rebel.
Everyone here was silent, and the group who had just come down from the mountain were even more afraid to speak.
These people are terrifying at first glance. Look at their clothes and the fact that they are government officials. If you were to ask who they fear the most, it would be the government soldiers. They cannot defeat so many government soldiers.
Someone inside whispered, "Damn it, he just said we were lucky and that we would get paid every month and wouldn't have to sell our bodies, but we didn't expect that we would be tricked and become meat on the chopping board. I don't know what the boss is thinking. How about we fight our way out and go back to the mountain?"
"Are you stupid? Look at all these people, can you run away? You still want to go back to the mountain, there are old people and children on the mountain, do you want to bring disaster to them? You'd better shrink your brain that is not smart to begin with, who knows what will happen in the future, maybe you will have a good life. Look at that young man, he is still smiling until now, what does it mean? It means that people treat us as their own people, don't worry too much."
Everyone looked at Zhou Guo and nodded. This kind-looking young man really didn't seem like a bad person. He looked like a kind-hearted person like a bodhisattva.
Everybody calm down, since they are here now, just follow the boss. The boss is not a coward, if things are really bad, the worst that can happen is that they will give up their lives.
But these people walk really fast, how can they walk so fast?
And he doesn't seem to be tired at all.
Wu Lazi was also asking Zhou Guo, "Are these people escorts? After becoming escorts, do they need to walk so fast every time?"
Zhou Guo said: "Whether the escorts hurry up or not depends on the goods. It's hard to say."
Seeing that she was a little uneasy, she slowly told her what the escort would do in the future, what to pay attention to, when he could take a break, and when he would be the busiest.
Wu Lazi didn't expect that she could take a break. "I can get paid every month, but I can still take a break? Do I still get paid when I take a break?"
How could this be so beautiful? It was so beautiful that she could hardly believe it.
