Outside Dengzhou City, the miners were very busy with their work.
On one hand, it was because Bai Wujiu, who ruled Dengzhou City, didn't consider these laborers as people and planned to exploit them to death. On the other hand, it was due to an uncertain rumor — it was said that a batch of military supplies received in the city had suddenly disappeared, and the higher-ups were furious, feeling deceived, but no one dared to take revenge, so they had no choice but to make the workers below work overtime to make up for the deficit.
Of course, this rumor only circulated among the Chen laborers; they wouldn't discuss these things with the Yi people.
