More than ten people were strolling by the river. From time to time, they would stop to look at the mud they dug out and the opposite bank. There were many people coming and going these days, so no one paid attention to them. There was only one bailiff who was responsible for guarding this side, so they didn't care about these people who came to watch the fun.
The dozen or so people looked around and saw a flock of chickens, ducks, and geese near Little Red. Because they were on the other side of the river, the dozen or so people quickened their pace and came to the small bridge. They went around the small bridge and chased along the road.
"Eat well. Don't make trouble. If you make trouble, I won't give you anything to eat." Xiao Hong called back a goose that wanted to go to other people's fields to look for food. She touched its head and taught it there. There was nothing in the fields now.
This goose was not as smart as Furry, so it naturally did not understand what it meant. Anyway, it came back and continued to follow the group. Little Red walked in front, and the people behind tied the pigs into a string. The people who were herding them followed. Poultry digested things quickly. They ate and pooped as they walked, and the things they pooped were eaten by the pigs.
In addition to the feces of the poultry, some uneaten grass and things in the mud were also eaten by the pigs. They didn't need to feed the pigs, so it saved a lot of trouble.
More than ten people who came from the other side saw the pigs first. They all looked surprised and looked at each other. They temporarily ignored the pigs and continued to move forward.
After walking for an hour, because Xiao Hong's team didn't walk fast, these people finally caught up. They followed the river and hid from the mud and soil that were brought up by the people who were working. They pretended that nothing had happened next to Xiao Hong. They were still looking around like before.
But more often than not, their eyes would look at the poultry and Xiao Hong. Xiao Hong also noticed, but she didn't care. There were many people who were curious. It was not the first time that people looked at her like this. There were more than thirty thousand animals when they walked back and forth. Ten thousand animals were not too many.
These people began to whisper as they walked. Their voices were so low that others couldn't hear them and didn't know what they were talking about.
Xiao Hong was not in a hurry. It would take a while for these poultry to be full. There was not much food, and they had to walk a long way to the front.
About half an hour later, there was a turn in front of them. Xiao Hong's eyes lit up when she saw that there was a naturally formed pond, which was a water bubble. There were some reeds that had just sprouted.
People couldn't go in, but ducks and geese could. That place was really not small. Xiao Hong noted it down. She was going to tell Little Young Master and Little Miss when she went back. This place definitely didn't belong to anyone. She thought that Little Young Master and Little Miss should have the ability to change this place.
Buying land was easy. The yamen didn't have a county magistrate. As long as the Zhang family said that they wanted to buy a piece of land that belonged to the yamen, they just had to pay the money. What's more, it was a swamp with reeds.
He had to tell them about this when he went back. Now, he could let the ducks and geese go in to find something to eat. There was a lot of food in there.
"Rongrong, take them in to play for a while. Remember to wash yourselves. Look, what have you done? The big white goose has turned gray."
Xiao Hong patted Rongrong's head gently and ordered it. Rongrong had a high IQ. It was sensible at that time. After so many days, it often stayed with Xiao Hong, so it became smarter. As soon as Xiao Hong finished her words, Rongrong shouted and rushed in first. The other ducks and geese saw that there was a leader, so they also rushed in.
The ducks and geese seemed to have the same habit. When they saw water, they wanted to go in to play.
"Stop. Don't follow us." Lil 'Red shouted again, scaring the dozen people. They thought Lil' Red was talking about them. While they didn't know what to do, Lil 'Red threw out the retractable pole in her hand and whipped the chicken that was also squeezed in the group of ducks.
"Go out? Where are you going? Can you swim? Do you want to drown? Go out and eat over there. Can't I control you? "
Xiao Hong drove the chickens out one by one, and there was a cooing sound in her mouth. Only then did some stupid chickens realize that they shouldn't go in the water.
The dozen or so people heaved a sigh of relief and looked at each other. One of them, who seemed to be the leader, stood up and approached Little Red. Little Red saw that there were still people working nearby, and there was even a bailiff not far away. She wasn't afraid and just watched as the person approached.
She wanted to know what they were going to say.
"Are you from Zhangjia Zhuangzi?" The person stopped a few steps away from Xiao Hong and asked Xiao Hong.
"Yes, I am from Zhangjia Zhuangzi. What do you want? If you want to buy something, you can go to the market in Zhuangzi. I don't sell here. "Xiao Hong admitted her identity, thinking that the person wanted to buy Mao Mao like the previous one.
The person shook his head, "We don't want to buy things, we want to buy people. We want to buy you. If you go back with us, we will give you more money, as long as you help us hatch chickens, ducks and geese. How much do you want?" The person stared at Xiao Hong, and seemed to be a little excited.
Xiao Hong stared at him, "Buy me? Can you afford it? Let me go to your place. Where are you from? "
There were people from all kinds of places here. Some of the countries nearby, as long as they could come, people would come. It was a mess, and Xiao Hong couldn't distinguish them.
The person pointed to the west with his hand, "It's in the west. Come back with us by boat. We will let you wear better clothes, eat better food, and find a better man."
Now, Little Red understood. Listening to the voices of these people, looking at the clothes they were wearing, and saying that the west was definitely Tufan. Little Red was smart. She remembered that these Tufan people had asked her to go over there and had even talked about hatching chicks.
The first thing that came to her mind was that Songrini, who bought things last time, really brought those chickens back alive. Cherries was in charge of that and brought back many chickens. It seemed that they had grown up and laid a lot of eggs. These people also wanted to raise them and make a lot of money.
Humph, not to mention that she didn't know how to hatch chickens, even if she did, she couldn't go with them. The two sides had just fought and lost in Songcheng. Now they dared to come here to buy people.
Xiao Hong glared at them and said, "I don't care who you are. Go back to where you came from. I won't go with you. Don't talk to me about this."
Xiao Hong walked to the chickens as she spoke. The people from the inner courtyard who followed her also looked at these people vigilantly.
The leader of the Tufan group was stunned. He didn't expect that this woman was so difficult to talk to. However, he didn't give up and walked to Xiao Hong again. He kept saying that she should wear the best clothes, eat the best food, find the best man, and so on.
Seeing that Lil 'Red was ignoring him, he stretched out his hand and was about to pull her away. At this moment, the people from the inner court took action. Several people rushed up together and started to punch and kick him. How dare he be so rude to Lil' Red? Lil 'Red was the young master and young lady's person.
As soon as they made a move, the ten or so Tubo people also rushed over. When Little Red saw this, she immediately put the whistle in her mouth and blew it with all her might. The people working there and the bailiffs also saw this and rushed over with the tools in their hands.
"Catch her and run quickly. You will get a great merit when you go back." Seeing that things were not going well, the leader decided to fight. There were also people from the Tufan group in front of them. They were riding horses. They planned to catch her and run over before they were surrounded. The chickens, ducks, and geese here were in a mess and could block others.
The other people from the Tufan group who were still fighting immediately rushed toward Xiao Hong. Xiao Hong also turned and ran. When that person was about to catch her, the geese in the pond rushed back. Thousands of geese saw that Xiao Hong was being chased away. They lowered their necks, put their heads on the ground, and moved their legs quickly.
Lil 'Red turned and ran into the group of geese. The two men who came to catch Lil' Red were surrounded by geese and twisted. If it was only their legs that were twisted, it would not be a big deal. It would just hurt a little. At most, they would be bruised, and they would be fine after some rest.
However, these geese had already gone crazy. They did not just focus on their legs. With a flap of their wings, they jumped into the air, kicking with their feet and twisting with their beaks, making it impossible for the two people to resist. The chickens also rushed over and flew back and forth as well.
This kind of attack was more powerful than the geese. As long as the sharp beaks bit on the body, it would be a small hole. It was the same when the claws scratched the body.
The two people no longer wanted to catch Xiao Hong. They used their arms to protect their heads, not letting the beaks and claws touch them. They screamed and wanted to run out of the poultry's encirclement.
Not only were the two of them attacked, the Tufan group who was fighting with the inner courtyard also couldn't escape. More than ten thousand poultry surrounded them. Under Rongrong's command, they attacked from all directions. The people from the inner courtyard took the opportunity to retreat. They didn't care about the feathers on their bodies. They stood at the side and watched with lingering fear.
It was too scary. This was the first time they saw poultry attacking people. Fortunately, the poultry knew each other. Otherwise, they would also attack them. Not only were the chickens' beaks and claws powerful, when they flapped their wings, it would also leave a red mark on their faces.
The bailiffs and the people who were working ran over. They couldn't see anyone at all. There were flying chickens everywhere. The screams of people and the cries of poultry mixed together and reached the bailiffs and the others' ears. They all stood there and sucked in a cold breath.
When they looked at Xiao Hong again, their gazes were different. Originally, they respected Xiao Hong, a member of the inner courtyard of Zhangjia Zhuangzi. Now, they were afraid of her. These poultry were only a part of the total. If all the poultry of the two Zhuangzi came, even if each person had a knife, how many people could resist this kind of attack?
