Chapter 130: Chapter 130 Re-encountering in the Mountains (1)_1

There were more than fifty people in total, thirty-one women, twenty-eight teenagers, and the remaining five were a few young and strong men. Among the women were Aunt Cai and Mrs. Xiong, both of whom Mo Yan knew.

In the previous days, after the last batch of vegetables from the greenhouse was sold, Lin Da and a dozen others who had helped sell the vegetables were now idle. Some were busy with spring plowing at home, while others were helping out on construction sites. Women like Aunt Cai had nothing to do.

The two women had already known about the Mo Family’s plans to clear new land, and since their own families had enough labor and didn’t require them to work in the fields, their families also agreed to them helping out and earning some Silver Coins.

"Aunt Cai, Aunt Zhou, later you’ll lead these children and the other aunts and sisters in doing the work. If there are any difficulties, just tell me directly,"

Mo Yan made the arrangement clear for everyone, and then entrusted Aunt Cai and Mrs. Zhou with supervision, to prevent anyone from being lazy or deceitful while still drawing the same wages as those who were hardworking and honest. Over time, even those who are good workers may become lazy, and she wasn’t willing to pay for a group that did nothing.

Aunt Cai and Mrs. Zhou, after knowing Mo Yan for so long, naturally understood the implied meaning in her words.

Aunt Cai, with her loud voice, said, "Little boss, rest assured, with such good wages, and the work isn’t heavy, we will definitely do the job neatly and tidy. If anyone dares to be lazy, they will be letting down the little boss for the wages given. Isn’t that right, everyone?"

The rest of the people, no matter what they thought inside, verbally agreed.

"I’ll leave the mountain’s affairs in your capable hands."

Mo Yan said this with a smile, silently commending Aunt Cai’s tact, giving these people a heads-up. If they didn’t work hard later, she wouldn’t let them come, and no one could argue.

As for the remaining five laborers, their main job was to fell trees and dig out tree roots. There weren’t many trees on the barren mountain, and five people were about enough.

Having made these arrangements, Mo Yan then headed into the mountain with Little Flower.

At this time, the mountain had changed from the bleak winter scene, with everything showing new green and vitality. Under the sunlight, the leaves and grass shimmered with a beautiful oily sheen, and lots of butterflies and bees shuttled back and forth among the flowers, mixing with the buzzing sound, all very lively.

Seeing this, Mo Yan felt pleased and hummed a tune while walking further into the mountains. Her clear voice echoed through the woods, making the mountain seem even more serene.

Little Flower was running happily through the woods. It used to come to the mountain alone, and even with small animals like wild chickens and rabbits to entertain itself, it found it dull after a while.

Now that Mo Yan was here, it was like it had taken an elixir. It ran wildly all over the mountain, occasionally bringing a rabbit or a wild chicken to Mo Yan, panting with a big tongue and looking at her expectantly, hoping for praise. This made Mo Yan’s eyes twitch, as she increasingly felt that this creature was like a dog.

These wild chickens and rabbits had not even had the chance to react before being devoured. With the spirit of not wanting to waste, um, not wanting to see a certain silly creature look heartbroken, Mo Yan reluctantly collected these wild creatures into the Space.

Seeing this, Little Flower thought Mo Yan liked them and started to crazily snatch more wild animals, causing a commotion in the woods and disturbing the peace.

Looking at the seven or eight wild chickens and more than ten rabbits piled up in the Space, Mo Yan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She finally had to pinch its ear when it came running with another rabbit to get it to stop.

Unfortunately, although the creature had gotten somewhat smarter, it didn’t fully understand Mo Yan’s meaning. Thinking she disdained those prey, it stubbornly grabbed the hem of her clothes and dragged her to a mountain stream.

Before long, a group of Plum Deer arrived at the stream. Mo Yan then understood what it wanted to do. Before she could stop it, the creature dashed into the herd like lightning and happily dragged back a beautiful Plum Deer, unfortunately, the Plum Deer’s throat had been bitten through, and it had already expired.
