Dongming Ziyu now has no ability or qualification to care about the injustice of these officials. He looked at the few flatbed trucks that were still empty and said: "Let's buy some food and go back. I hope this disaster relief food will not survive."

When we arrived at the grain store, the food was a little cheaper than on the road, but it was also very expensive. When I asked about the price of bricks and tiles, the listener's expression changed even more.

To build three brick houses, it takes ten taels of silver. Each family has more than a dozen people. How can three houses be enough?

After repairing five or six brick houses, you will get more than 20 taels of silver, and you have to eat and clothe yourself. If you are fleeing famine, you have to buy everything, including every needle and thread. There are so many places to spend money.

The money given by Chuan and Zhong Rui was simply not enough.

Shuan Zhu said: "When we go out to buy things, do errands, etc., there must be an animal in the village to travel with us, otherwise all the time going back and forth will be wasted on the road."

Dongshi also said: "It is best to have two oxen to open up wasteland. Relying on manpower alone is too slow."

Dong Youliang said: "Without land, we have to buy every grain of grain to eat. The money won't last long. We can't build brick houses. We also live in mud houses in our hometown. When we come here, there is no reason to have to live in brick houses."

house."

This statement immediately aroused everyone's agreement. People who have left their hometown are humble, and they need money to deal with emergencies.

Dongming Ziyu was also helpless and had to find a way to make money. Only with the money could he feel confident. He bought some salt, sugar and oil with everyone and went back.

The people sent by Jiang Haoguang and Jiang Hexuan to inquire about the situation also came back. They also knew that this group of people rescued the second young master of Prince Chen's Mansion on the way to escape and were taken care of. However, the people of Prince Chen's Mansion gave them money at that time and said that they could not fight in the future.

Do anything under the banner of Prince Chen's Mansion or the Second Young Master of Prince Chen's Mansion.

Jiang Haoguang and Jiang Hexuan knew what they were doing, and they didn't take these people seriously.

A life-saving grace?

Talking to someone in authority about life-saving grace? What a joke!

If the common people lose their lives for the royal family, it is also the supreme honor of the common people. Who dares to express gratitude to the royal family?

The only reason he can take care of these people is that the second young master is young, doesn't know the harshness of the world, and still maintains his innocent heart.

The second young master is not a man in charge, and there is a stepmother in the house. Living abroad this time is not simple, and it is not certain whether he can be allowed to grow up.

Jiang Hexuan weighed for a while, then called the steward and said: "Defu, those people are living in Nanxi Village, go and send a message, let them come according to the household registration in the yamen. The victims who fell in Beixi Village must live in Beixi Village.

Don’t let it be unmanageable.”

Defu responded: "Yes!"

He is also a cunning old man and did not offend that person personally. If the second young master becomes powerful, will he still remember the kindness of this group of people?

The master may not be in trouble then, but the unlucky thing is that it's the servants like them.

He went to Jiang Haoguang and conveyed the clan leader's message. After all, people lived in Nanxi Village, and the matter of evicting people was left to the head of Nanxi Village. There was nothing wrong with that.

Jiang Haoguang waited for Defu to leave, then spat, "Bah! This old fox has been silent all day. It's because he found out the details of that group of people that he thought of driving them away! And you let me be this evil person!"

The eldest son hurriedly brought the tea and said: "Dad, don't be angry, my son will run for you. It is not good for them to live together and have a family. It is also appropriate to be divided into half of Beixi Village.

Anyway, the bridge that crosses the creek is at the end of the village. If they want to walk across the river, they have to do it right under our noses so that they can monitor and control them."

Jiang Haoguang waved his hand, "Go ahead."

The positions of clan leader and village chief should have been his own, but Jiang Hexuan committed a crime while serving as an official, so he resigned and returned to his hometown to make up for the shortfall.

He himself is a civil servant, and his uncle is the prefect. He buys sacrificial fields for the clan and runs a clan school. When he comes back, he should be allowed to take care of it, so he was pulled down.

What can he do? How could he not have a close uncle who is an official and not be admitted to the Juren Examination?

Jiang Haoguang's eldest son, Jiang Yi, walked through a vegetable field and arrived at the east end of the village. He was slightly startled when he saw the lively scene.

I saw some people dragging trees down from the mountain, some rolling stones, some cutting grass, some leveling the ground, some digging clay by the river, some cutting the grass with a guillotine, and some mixing grass fragments into the clay and mud. , someone stretched out the clay...

Even the children collected large and small stones aside, unable to move the big ones, but moved the small ones, with smiles on their little faces.

This group of refugees is so alive, shouldn't they be dead, miserable and worried?

Zhou Laicai, who was leading the men to cut the grass, saw someone standing there and peeking. He walked over with a sickle in hand and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing?"

The thief-minded Jiang Yi: "..."

He is also a person who has read books, right? Where is Tong Sheng!

He lowered his face and said: "The village chief sent someone to pass the message, asking you to live according to your household registration. Those who should go to Beixi Village must move to Beixi Village."

Zhou Laicai was not happy when he heard that he was the one who should move to Beixi Village. He glared and said, "We have already built the shacks, and you are the one who came here! Aren't you just kidding?"

Jiang Yi looked at the sickle in his hand, couldn't help but take a step back, and said calmly: "This is what the mayor wants! The Yamen will also investigate when the time comes, and our village cannot accommodate the victims of Beixi Village for a long time. If something happens, ,Which village does it belong to?"

Dong Chunlei was digging a small tree with a hoe. When he saw what seemed to be an argument here, he put down the hoe and walked over, "What's going on?"

Zhou Laicai repeated what Jiang Yi said.

Dong Chunlei clasped his fists at Jiang Yi and said: "Please tell the village chief and the village chief that we are only temporarily settling here. After we finish cleaning up here, we will go to the other side to clean up and level it, and then the people who settled in Beixi Village will move there."

Jiang Yi said: "No, if you can put up so many tents in one night, you can move them there immediately! Don't wait, let the villagers drive them away, it will be shameless!"

Zhou Laicai raised his sickle and spat: "Come on, come and chase me away! What are you afraid of?"

Jiang Yi was so frightened that he stepped back a few steps, and said with a stern look: "This is the order of the village chief! This is under the jurisdiction of the general king. Are you trying to cause trouble? I will drive you out of the village and out of Liulin County. Do you believe it or not?" Do you believe it or not?"

Zhou Laicai scratched his neck and said, "I don't believe it! I came all the way here and I was broke and all I had was courage!"

Someone also said: "Yes! Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes! Whoever doesn't let us live, we will fight to the death!"

"We are willing to risk our lives, but what are you willing to risk?"

"What a bully! Fight! Fight!"

"If you can't delay it for two days, are you looking for trouble?"

"Want to test if we are easy to bully? Hmm? Just give it a try!"

Everyone was noisy and surrounded Jiang Yi. Everyone stretched their necks and shouted at him, as if they were about to raise their sickles to chop him.
