Chen Mo scooped up a shovel of horse manure mixed with horse urine and carefully poured it into the wheelbarrow.

Ding Bao, on the other hand, carefully taught him how to shovel the feces in the most light and effortless way to avoid having feces and urine splashing on him.

He has been a groom for two and a half years and has considerable experience in shoveling manure.

The cart of horse manure was quickly filled, and Ma Cai left with the cart, winking at Ding Bao before leaving.

Seeing both of them leaving, Chen Mo grabbed an apple that was used to feed the horse and took two bites.

When the horse saw that his fruit had been stolen, he howled angrily, but it was a pity that it couldn't speak.

Chen Mo quickly gnawed most of an apple, threw the remaining half to the roaring horse, and started shoveling the manure again.

Ding Baocai and Ding Baocai didn't leave for long before they came back with an empty cart.

"Let me tell you." Ma Cai glanced at Ding Bao.

Chen Mo didn't say much, knowing that these two people must have some secret things to tell him.

"We didn't tell you if you didn't shovel the manure before. Now that you've come to shovel the manure, you know this."

Ma Cai didn't dare to speak loudly and kept his voice very low.

"We have been secretly selling horse dung during this period, and we can make forty or fifty cents a day."

Horse dung is a good thing, especially if war horses eat a lot of refined grains, so the price of dung is higher.

Although all this excrement is sent to the captain's field, some of them secretly sell some, and no one can tell.

The two of them were discussing before, and they were also considering whether to tell Chen Mo about it, because if he knew about it, there would be one more person to share the money with.

But if I don't tell him, I'm afraid that he will find out one day and report it, so it's better to drag him into the water now.

"Does Master He know about this?" Chen Mo asked the two of them.

If Master He knew about this, it would be okay to share some money among himself, but it would be inappropriate not to share it.

Just hearing his inquiry, the two of them were silent for a moment.

Of course, they also understood that it was best to take He Maguan with them about this matter, but they didn't tell it at the beginning, and the more they went on, the less they dared to say it.

"Then if you do this, you won't be afraid of being discovered one day!" Chen Mo looked stunned.

He really didn't expect these two people to be so bold.

If Master He also shared the money, then even if the matter was exposed, in order not to be punished too harshly, he would protect them to some extent.

But He Maguan didn't know about this, so if the matter was exposed, it would be considered a minor offense for them to be killed by military law.

"Let's be careful, we won't be discovered." Ma Cai's voice became lower and lower as he spoke.

If people don't know, they have to do nothing. Since they have done this, it will only be a matter of time before they are exposed.

"What if?" Chen Mo asked.

Ma Cai bowed his head. His family did have some connections in the military, but they were not very powerful. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been feeding horses here.

If this matter was really exposed, even if he could save his life, he would definitely be beaten with dozens of military sticks and driven out of the military camp.

"I didn't hear what you said, and I won't tell Mr. Hema. I only shovel dung, and I don't ask about sending dung out." Chen Mo took the initiative to draw a line from this matter.

With the Mortal Transformation Pearl in his body, he only needs to slowly accumulate Qi and blood and wait for rebirth.

He didn't want to get involved in something that might affect his own stability.

But the two of them had also helped him a lot during this time. Although it was just small things like lending him a soap loaf or a bucket, he would never report or expose them.

"After all, we are also colleagues, you can't just ignore him! What do you think we should do about this matter? We both listen to you!" Ma Cai's tone was anxious, and he was panicking inside.

His family had many connections to arrange things after he entered the military camp. If he was kicked out because of this, everything would be in vain.

He and Chen Mo lived in the same room for half a month, and he knew that Chen Mo was definitely not an ordinary disaster victim.

Because he actually knew how to read, even if he only knew a few words, it was rare among a group of soldiers.

So at this time, I hope Chen Mo can help with some ideas.

The reason why Chen Mo is literate is that the characters in this world are relatively similar to the world he lived in before traveling through time.

Secondly, it was because when he first sold himself, because he had a decent appearance, after working in the kitchen for half a month, he was transferred to work as a book boy, and he learned a few words under the influence.

"Either you never do it again, or if you want to do it again, give all the money you earned before to Master He, and tell him all about it."

Seeing that the two of them had helped him when they got along before, Chen Mo gave them some advice.

As for whether they listen or not, that's up to them.

After shoveling two carts full of horse manure, rinsing his hands, he went to steam steamed buns for the horses.

He ate more than two kilograms of steamed buns alone, and Chen Mo left eight more.

There are only two meals in the military camp, lunch and dinner, and there is no food in the morning, so eight steamed buns are left over in the afternoon so that each person can eat two to deal with their stomachs tomorrow morning.

After Chen Mo steamed the steamed buns and fed the horses, the two men who had gone out to deliver manure also rushed back with a stinky smell.

"Brother Mo." Ma Cai said in a friendly tone, with a smile on his face.

Ming Ji is obviously one year older than Chen Mo, but now he calls him brother with a shy face, obviously because he wants something from him.

"What's wrong?" Chen Mo became alert in his heart. If he showed courtesy for nothing, he would be either committing adultery or stealing.

"It's nothing. I only have carrots and cabbage all day long. I bought a chicken to give you a toothpaste."

Ma Cai picked up a braised chicken wrapped in lotus leaves and exuding an oily aroma.

On the way to deliver manure, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Compared with his income of more than 20 yuan a day and the price he would have to pay if he was discovered, the gap was really too big.

He wanted to stop, but Ding Bao was a little reluctant to give up. The two of them were now grasshoppers on the same rope and could only advance and retreat together.

And even if you don't do it again, this matter may not be exposed in the future.

The two discussed for a long time, and after thinking about it, they decided to use the second method mentioned by Chen Mo.

"Tell me what's going on." Although Chen Mo asked, he could vaguely guess in his heart.

"The two of us plan to listen to you and tell Master He all about this. But we have to be beaten if we go, so we want to ask Brother Mo for your help."

He rubbed his hands and smiled sheepishly.

What the two of them did, even if they handed over all the money, was definitely worth a beating.

Therefore, the two of them did not dare to speak.

Chen Mo hasn't participated in this matter yet, so he will go and talk first. Master He will be less angry after accepting the money. He can at most reprimand them a few words and probably won't slap them.

Even if they were whipped, it would definitely be lighter than if they hit the muzzle of the gun directly.

Once he is injured, his strength will inevitably be affected. Even if his family paved the way for him, he still has to fight for some strength.

"You can just go on your own, what's the point of me going." Chen Mo shook his head and declined. He didn't really want to get involved in this matter.

"Brother Mo, please help us this time. If you help us, we will give you one more silver each." Ma Cai gritted his teeth and said.

"This..." Chen Mo hesitated slightly. Two coins was a lot of money. It could buy a lot of meat and help him accumulate energy and blood faster.

"Brother Mo, if you help me, we will be brothers from now on. Brother, I will tell you a good thing that you absolutely don't know." Ma Cai looked solemn.

This shouldn't be told to others casually, but he doesn't care too much now.

If Chen Mo is willing to help him, then he can tell him about this, if not, then pull him down.

What's more, he understands that even if he doesn't say it now, everyone will know about it in two months.

"What's the matter?" Chen Mo was quite interested.

Ma Cai has some connections in his family, so the good things he said should not be lies.
