Chapter 1530: Misfortune, Warning

Most of the villagers only knew that there were wild boars, bears, and tigers in the mountains. Compared to those wild animals, wild wolves were more dangerous as they moved in a group.

For a few men to face a pack of wolves, their chance of survival was low. Therefore, out of the eight people who went into the mountain, only three returned with heavy injuries.

The news shook the entire village, as out of the three people, only one managed to hold on until he was sent to the hospital. As for the other two, they passed away due to blood loss before they reached the hospital.

At eight o’clock in the morning, the production team gathered all the villagers from Xie Village and several neighboring villages under their jurisdiction at the village hall.

Standing on the stage, An Xuyuan looked at all the people sitting below for a moment before he said, "I believe that everyone heard about what happened this morning."

As soon as he finished his words, the villagers broke out in hushed discussions. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

He waited for a while until the discussion calmed down and continued, "I understand that a lot of you are running out of firewood and disregarded our warning about the danger."

"What happened today is a misfortune and also a warning for everyone. The mountain is dangerous, as the wild beasts become fiercer during winter. If possible, avoid going to the mountain."

"Vice team leader, what if we need firewood? You can’t ask us to stay at home and die from the cold," one of the villagers asked suddenly.

"The production team has extra supplies of firewood, and it will be enough for you to use until spring comes. You can exchange the firewood using your work points or borrow it. When winter passes, you can pick firewood and pay us back," An Xuyuan replied.

"Vice team leader, how does it work if we want to borrow the firewood?" another villager asked.

Hearing this, An Xuyuan replied, "You can exchange one work point for three bundles of firewood. If you borrow the firewood, you have to return a bundle of firewood for every three bundles you borrow."

Hearing this, the villagers were delighted. It was impossible for them to exchange their work points for firewood, but it was possible to borrow the firewood.

They also didn’t feel that giving an extra bundle of firewood for every three bundles was too much. Finding that the interest was reasonable, the villagers finally agreed to stay away from the mountain foothills during winter.

Seeing that there was no objection, An Xuyuan said, "Those who want to borrow or exchange the firewood can register their name with the staff and go to the warehouse to get the firewood."

After he said this, the meeting was adjourned. Every family that lacked firewood rushed to register their names and borrow the firewood. Among these people, Zhang Damu and his family were also present. They lined up and waited for their turn.

Hearing her husband’s words, Liu Piao was helpless and said, "Husband, I’m wearing several layers of clothes right now. I won’t catch a cold. Staying at home for so many days, I feel stuffy."

Zhang Ermu didn’t say anything when he heard her words and only let out a sigh. But he kept his eyes on her, fearing that she would slip and fall.

Not far from them, Wang Muxiao nudged her husband and said in a low voice, "Husband, looks like the Zhang family will have joyous news soon."

Lu Cheng glanced at his wife and asked, "Wife, how do you know?"

"I just know," Wang Muxiao replied meaningfully.

More than three months had passed since she gave birth to her sons. Now that there was a reason for her to come out, she insisted on coming with her husband, leaving her children with her mother-in-law.

While it had been a long time since she showed her face to others, she still had a keen eye for observation. Judging from how worried and anxious Zhang Ermu was, the chance of Liu Piao being pregnant was high.
