Chapter 1972 We Are Really Fleeing Famine, Not Bandits (254)

The county magistrate stood on the city wall with his chubby belly, frowning, and looked down at the stack of household registration and road guides in his hand, as well as the small badge and flag of the Longwei Escort.

There is no problem with household registration, road guides, and escort flags.

He looked up again at the villagers of Qiao's Village waiting quietly outside the city wall.

There are many old people, women and children in this sturdy team, so they should not be bandits.

Maybe...the villagers in the northwest area are similar to their culture. There are many hunters for a living, and there are many dart runners in the village, so these men are so tough, right? ? ! !
Despite such conjectures, the county magistrate was still a little undecided.

The most important thing is that these people came from the northwest.

If it was just to escape drought and war, they should at most find a place to settle when they entered the northeast boundary, instead of running to such a remote boundary as him.

He is just a small Zhima official with no background and not very flexible mind. He really doesn't want to cause trouble, let alone get involved with the northwest rebels.

Just when the little county magistrate was hesitating, his subordinate county magistrate suddenly came over and said that someone was visiting.

Back at the yamen, seeing the token in the person's hand, the little county magistrate's legs went limp and he almost knelt down.

After Wu Liu showed his token, he gave a few more detailed instructions before leaving.

The people in Qiao's Village quickly settled down, and even the county magistrate directly allocated the mountainous land where they had already built a house to their village.

This made the people of Qiao's Village almost die of joy.

There is no need to move the place in the coming year, and there is no need to rebuild the house, which is really a good thing.

Living in that valley, there is endless salt. I heard from Sanya that it snows in winter, and there is no other place in their valley that is cold, and they can grow some sweet potatoes and vegetables near the hot spring pool. , It's simply not too good.

As for the snakes, insects and ferocious beasts in the surrounding forests, although they are dangerous, they are not afraid of them.

First, they obeyed Sanya's words and planted grass that snakes and insects fear around the village and in front of every house. Second, Sanya got a big white bone from somewhere and used it The words Qiaojiacun were engraved on that big bone, and placed at the only entrance of the valley like a boundary marker.

Since that boundary marker was placed there, no wild animal has suddenly run into the valley.

After the settlement was done, the big guys didn't care about wasting money, men and women, big and small, all paid three copper coins and entered the city.

Grain for the winter, various grains and vegetables, thick cotton-padded clothes, trousers and quilts, hoes, sickles, hatchets, pots, bowls and chopsticks, baskets and dustpans, etc., as long as they are needed, the big guys will take them without hesitation.

Along the way, they robbed many bandits and bandits who came to rob them, and took over many bandit dens, and distributed a lot of money to every household.

In their minds, the things they bought are all free, and they are all useful, so there is no need to feel bad at all.

Therefore, everyone was happy to buy, and the corners of their mouths almost cracked to the ears.

The small county town was much bustling because of their arrival.

In the end, the sellers, shopkeepers, and people from Qiaojia Village were all very satisfied.

The county magistrate was also satisfied, and at this glance, he knew that he was an out-and-out farmer, not a bandit, let alone an uprising team or a spy.

Coupled with the guarantee of the newly promoted Marquis Wu above, he can sleep tonight, and his little black hat is also kept.
