Five-year-old cute baby: traveled back to ancient times and became a grandmother

Chapter 453: We are illiterate here
The soldiers of Da Wan Kingdom were captured and used for forced labor. The interrogator didn't know whether to say that the people of Taohua Village were brave or fearless.

If there was a chance to escape... the interrogator thought about it, looked around, and couldn't help but feel discouraged. Not only was the construction site surrounded by densely packed steel barbed wire, but there were also more than a dozen dogs.

If someone wanted to run away, the dogs would find them quickly. Moreover, there were either mountains or wilderness around, with no food or other supplies. In addition, the people of Da Wan looked different from those of Jin, so it was easy to escape but difficult to survive.

"You guys..." Bai Daqi walked around the interrogator and his group before speaking: "What do you guys know?"

"What are your specialties and skills?"

After he finished speaking, seeing these people looking at him blankly, Bai Daqi realized that the words he said were not easily understood by outsiders.

"Oh, it means whatever kind of handicrafts you can do, such as plastering, repairing the roof, building walls, sifting sand, etc."

Bai Daqi: "Whatever it is, you can tell me what you know, so I can make arrangements."

After listening to his explanation, these people finally understood. Some nodded, while others shook their heads.

"Okay, okay, those who know how to do the work stand on the left, and those who don't stand on the right." Bai Daqi muttered to himself, "Next time I have to add the application requirements."

When the deadline is tight, it is natural that people with skills will save more effort.

The interrogator imitated the person he had just seen and raised his hands when he spoke.

He raised his hand and said, "I, I can read."

Bai Daqi nodded and asked, "You know the characters of the Great World, right?"

Seeing the interrogator nod, Bai Daqi shook his head in disdain: "No, that won't work. This is equivalent to illiteracy here."

illiteracy?

This was the first time the interrogator had heard this term, but he could more or less guess what it meant.

The interrogator said: "How can you be illiterate? I can also read a little bit of the Qin characters of Jin."

If not for this, he wouldn't have been able to serve as an interrogator in the army.

Bai Daqi still shook his head: "That won't work either. You are a captive. It's useless to know some Qin characters. We already have enough clerks on the construction site. You can go to the people without skills."

The interrogator wanted to say something else, but Bai Daqi had already called some people over, and then quickly sent those with skills to the next position: "You are new here and you are not familiar with the job. First follow me for ten days or half a month, and then we will arrange for you based on your performance."

"I've given the people to you. You are the veterans of the construction project. You must take good care of the people for me and make sure they are well led. If anyone gets lost, I will look for you." These words were said to the old workers on the construction site.

"Manager Daqi, don't worry."

"We will definitely take good care of the people."

Although it is troublesome to bring people with you, you can earn an extra thirty cents every month.

Moreover, being able to lead people also means that you have been recognized and valued by the manager. If there are other projects in the future, the manager will definitely think of you first.

The experienced workers readily agreed, carefully looked at the people assigned to them, and made a preliminary judgment in their minds.

The man who was sent here by the Baiyu Army in handcuffs, with a pointed nose and blue eyes, was from outside and was probably captured by the Baiyu Army.

Although the treatment at Bai's project site is good, this is for the people who come to work. As for the captives, there is definitely no good treatment, at least there is definitely no monthly salary.

As long as you keep an eye on your people and urge them to work well, the manager will keep an eye on them and naturally have a clear idea of ​​what is going on.

After the old workers took everyone away, Bai Daqi looked at the remaining people and scratched his head: "Forget it, you guys just do the laborer's work first, like moving bricks, transporting sand, carrying cement and so on." These are rough jobs and do not require any technical experience, just need to work hard.

Although the interrogation officer was not completely powerless, he had never done any heavy work. He couldn't push the cart loaded with stones, and he almost hit his foot while moving bricks.

As for carrying cement, let alone a full bucket, one cannot even lift his shoulders when carrying a shoulder pole.

As for transporting sand, sand is not necessarily lighter than stones, so naturally he can't do it either.

Once again being scolded as useless and a freeloader, the interrogator felt aggrieved and wronged. He threw himself on the stone pestle and cried with snot and tears all over his face.

"I, I, I..." He is a civil servant who only needs to know how to ride a horse and write. It is normal that he can't do such a job well.

His crying confused the person who was scolding him.

"Old Ai, why are you crying? I'm doing this for your own good. Look at the people who came here with you. After a few days, they have all made a lot of progress. You are the only one left."

"Don't you want to make progress and get a red flower?"

The interrogator looked up, his eyes misty with tears: "I think so."

It doesn’t matter whether you get a red flower or not. The key is that if you get a red flower, you can get a pork elbow as a reward.

He loves eating pork elbows the most. The chef on the construction site cooks delicious dishes, and the pork elbows in sauce are fragrant and delicious.

Besides, the little red flower proves that he is working hard, and everyone will treat him better, and those who bully him will be more cautious.

The communications officer knew that there was a chain of contempt in the military camp, with veterans bullying new recruits and students from wealthy families bullying students from poor families abound.

But he didn't expect that even though he was captured and forced to do labor on the construction site, there was still a chain of contempt, and it was not the people of Jin who despised him, but the people of Dawan Kingdom who despised him.

He was beaten several times by the disciples of the Da Wan Guo family, and it was the people of Jin who took pity on him and gave him ointment...

Just after the first batch of people were divided, Bai Shanquan received news that the second batch of troops from the Great Wanguo had also entered the territory of Taohua Village.

"Bai Youcai and his gang managed to scam more than 6,000 taels of gold?"

Bai Shanquan clicked his tongue: "More than us."

Bai Shitou said in a baby voice: "Uncle Quan, let's put it this way, your performance is not good."

Bai Xiaoda also agreed: "Yes, you should ask for a high price."

The advantage of delayed news is that the first batch of troops suffered a loss in numbers, and the second batch did not receive the news in time.

Then, out of habit, they let in more people, but were stopped, with the same reason that Bai Shanquan used at the beginning.

For the sake of the big plan, Da Wanguo had no choice but to endure it and pay the money obediently.

"Hmph, now you know how to criticize me. Who said I was a traitor to the village because I asked for money?" Bai Shanquan slapped the two of them.

"Oh, Uncle Quan, it's not that we haven't been out much and haven't seen enough. In the future, you should take us out more often. We will see more and won't embarrass ourselves."

After Bai Shitou finished speaking, Bai Xiaoda's eyes turned and he cleverly agreed: "Yes, now we have to talk about the importance of training from childhood..."

"You guys are the only ones who want to fool me." Bai Shanquan laughed, "You are still young."

"Let's go meet the third batch of soldiers. Several construction projects have been urging people to come." Bai Shanquan said with regret and shook his head: "But the opportunity to make extra money is gone, what a pity."
