LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 68 What I want to do more is save you.
Seeing that they were not as stupid as Zhao Zhiming, Ye Qingran spread his hands and said, "Rather than handing him over alone, what I want to do is save you."
Although the people in this village were all traffickers, after she calmed down, she also figured out why they did what they did.
To put it bluntly, most people in this era are not purely bad. They almost all take eccentric ways because they cannot survive. But this is wrong after all.
Wanting to live is everyone's wish, but this also includes those innocent people who were drugged and sold. They also have the right to live, so Ye Qingran thought of some extra ways.
Shocking them or killing them only treats the symptoms but not the root cause. Only "conquering" them is the best way to eradicate human trafficking.
But the so-called "indoctrination" is not preaching or empty talk, but real solutions to their life problems, such as starting with food and finding ways to make them self-sufficient. Only after that can they consider other life problems.
"Save us? Don't be ridiculous. It's you who need help now, right? Hand them over quickly, otherwise you will wait to die here!"
They were clamoring and trying to rush into the house, but Chu Qingyun directly cut off a strand of hair on the leader's forehead with such speed that it was impossible to see clearly.
By the time they reacted, Chu Qingyun's sword had already been put away, leaving only the hair that had just fallen to the ground and his cold eyes.
Only then did they realize that this courtyard was not accessible casually, and they immediately took a few steps back before someone said, "Why do you want to save us? Do you want to report to the government? There are no towns nearby, and there is no government at all. Just give up!"
Ye Qingran smiled. Sure enough, these people could only communicate normally after receiving threats.
She replied: "Of course not. What I said is that I want you to be self-sufficient and live a good life. Don't do such harming things in the future. The lives of passers-by are also lives. You can't use other people's lives just to live your own life." Fate is like a piece of grass."
"You put it nicely. Our place is so remote and the soil is not good. We can't grow much food in a year. It's not enough to eat, let alone be self-sufficient. Besides, there are no towns nearby. Even if we grow We have enough food to eat, but there is no place to sell the excess. We can’t just eat without other food, rice, oil and salt, right?”
"I know your situation, otherwise I wouldn't have said so directly that I could help you solve it."
Ye Qingran took out a bag of silver and said, "I am not short of silver. I can give you money. Although you said there are no towns nearby, since you are selling people, you must know that there is a place where you can trade. Otherwise, what is the point of selling people? ?”
No one can resist the temptation of money, especially those who are so poor that they are almost crazy.
After seeing the money bag, their eyes never moved away. They stared at the money bag. If Chu Qingyun wasn't here, I'm afraid they would have rushed to snatch it.
"Silver is useful, but we can only rely on the passing caravans to exchange for some food. They don't come often. They only come to us when they are short of people. Sometimes we even have to wait for half a year. If they come slowly, we may even We can only live by chewing tree bark.”
They were chirping, "Unless you have a way to get caravans to come every month and give us the food or population to exchange goods, what's the use of your beautiful words?"
They think that rich people like Ye Qingran don't understand how difficult their lives are.
"I have a way to help you improve the soil and even eat the vegetables you grow soon, but you must also promise me that you will no longer traffic in humans, and tell me all the news about those caravans, and I will negotiate with them. .”
What Ye Qingran said made them very excited, but it was still possible to improve the soil, but it was basically impossible to eat the vegetables they grew themselves soon.
Not to mention that the soil is poor, even if the soil is the best, it will take enough time to grow edible vegetables. What she said is really exaggerated and unrealistic.
But Ye Qingran had a plan in mind. She had spring water in the space, not to mention soil, and she could still make vegetables out of the desert.
The villagers were dubious, and after discussing in low voices for a while, they said: "This deal sounds like a good deal, but we need to discuss it carefully."
They seemed to want to go into the courtyard, and Ye Qingran let them in without hesitation.
After discussing for a while, the villagers' attitude was quite good, and they were at least willing to communicate, which saved Ye Qingran a lot of trouble.
After basically finalizing the decision, the villagers suddenly asked to see Zhao Zhiming: "Although he is a bit of a bastard, he is still from our village after all. Since he wants to help us, why not bring him with him?"
Ye Qingran nodded: "That's true, but I still have some questions to ask him, so I can't let him go yet. If you just want to chat with him for a few words, that's fine."
She led the villagers to the woodshed. Ye Zhuoyu was guarding outside the woodshed to prevent Zhao Zhiming from escaping.
Hearing the commotion in the yard, Ye Guodong and Mrs. Jiang came out with Ye Yunlian and asked, "Why are there so many people?"
"It's the villagers in the village. I discussed something with them."
Hearing that it was a villager from this village, Ye Guodong immediately became vigilant: "What was discussed?"
"They promised me not to traffic people anymore, and I would help them improve the soil, grow vegetables again, and become self-sufficient."
After Ye Qingran told everything, Ye Yunlian clamored to see Zhao Zhiming again, but Jiang couldn't resist her and had to take her into the woodshed.
Ye Guodong had no choice but to follow in.
But just as Ye Qingran and Chu Qingyun walked in, Ye Zhuoyu was also pushed in by several hands of the villagers outside the door. Before he could see who it was, the door was locked.
"Hmph, you are talking about helping us, but you are trying to trick us. Maybe you are stalling for time and looking for an opportunity to call in the officers and soldiers to arrest us."
The villagers suddenly changed their minds, and some people said quickly: "You must have discovered that there is a town nearby, and there are officers and soldiers in the town, so you want to delay the arrest of us. We will not be fooled."
"Yeah, what are you pretending to be? Didn't you know there was a town when you passed by here? Since you are looking for death, then I will satisfy you!"
After saying that, they poured wax oil outside the door, lit a fire and threw it on, immediately setting the door of the woodshed on fire.
The woodshed is full of wood and straw, and they will be burned to death in it in a short time.
Ye Qingran frowned. She didn't expect these villagers to be so cunning.
