Quick wear: She has turned over the big guys from all walks of life

Chapter 1426 Famine and Natural Disaster 584
"Isn't it fun enough to have food and drinks and no need to travel?" She asked in a sweet voice. She was not disgusted by his intimacy and quite enjoyed it.

That's how it should be between them.

Zhou Ting couldn't help but chuckle, "Little wild girl."

She always loves freedom and doesn't like being constrained, which makes him feel very nervous; he should do his job and be in power, but he may not be able to give her the freedom she wants.

"Hmph." She smiled.

"I'm sorry that you have to follow me around everywhere." He smiled and kissed the rosy face of the person in his arms. The face was so delicate and smooth that he couldn't stop talking about it.

Mingyi nodded, "That's good to know. You must be nicer to me in the future. It can't be worse than it is now."

"Of course." He wanted to marry her home as soon as possible, to have her by his side every day, and to have her by his side whenever he fell asleep or woke up.

Bound by rules and ethical taboos, they could only visit her occasionally, have meals with her, and treat her as nicely as possible.

The carriage moved forward slowly.

Five days later.

Fucheng.

The city gates were wide open, and Fucheng government officials and the Northwest Army jointly guarded the city gates.

The carriage drove smoothly into the city gate. Mingyi lifted a slit in the carriage window curtain and looked out. There were people coming and going at the city gate, including people from the grassland and other countries. These outsiders looked haggard, and the grassland people were no exception.

"Chao Sheng, why are all those grassland people coming to Fucheng? Is the natural disaster so severe that they can't survive on the grassland anymore?"

Zhou Ting leaned close to her ear, took a look outside, and smiled knowingly, "Don't worry about them. Now that we are in Fucheng, we can make arrangements as needed. There are several teams of foreigners that are not simple. With the garrison commander here, they will handle it."

"If the grasslands and foreigners cannot survive, a large number of people will flock to our Fucheng. How should we arrange for these people? The wastelands in Fucheng have been almost arranged." In the past few years, a large number of refugees have been received one after another, and the wastelands have been almost allocated to the refugees for reclamation.

Even the nearby hills have been arranged. If there is no place to accommodate so many people, they can only be accommodated deeper in the mountains.

There is another way to go, which is to settle people in the towns behind Fucheng; however, this will cause too much uncertainty and will be difficult to manage.

"Let's take a look first, there's no rush."

Zhou Ting said so, and she just listened; in the end it was him and the teacher who had the headache anyway, so she just had to give some advice and manage the workshop.

The car curtain was lowered, Mingyi leaned on Zhou Ting and was held in his arms.

"Don't worry, Yiyi. The teacher has already written to explain this. Foreigners came here to seek refuge because they wanted the stability and abundant resources of our land. Since the drought started, our northwest was affected a little at first, but not much."

"Later, our Northwest became incredibly rich in products. After we found the high-yield grain you mentioned, the Northwest's grain production increased dramatically. Although the Northwest cannot compare with the resources of the Central Plains before, we can be self-sufficient and don't need to rely on others."

"In addition, the weather has been good in recent years, and the Northwest has become a peaceful place. The war has not been able to break in, and we have food and drink. Foreigners have traded with us and understand the situation in the Northwest. When they are threatened by natural disasters, the first thing they think of is the Northwest."

"The population has increased dramatically. In the past, the land was vast and the population was sparse, but now there are many people and the land is sparse. We may not necessarily accept them, and even if we do not accept them, we cannot drive them out, because that would lead to desperate measures."

Without a place to live, the foreigners will die sooner or later. If the Northwest does not accept them, they will definitely not sit idly by and wait for death.

Let's hold them back first. If they can produce something valuable, it's fine to send them to Ningguo.

"What about Ningguo and the Western Regions?" After listening to his explanation, she looked up at him.

Zhou Ting chuckled, "We can't let them go to the Western Regions. The grain production there is extremely high, and the products are rich and varied. It will be our backyard in the future, so we can't let them go."

Since they have come to seek refuge, they should live a hard life and start from scratch; sending them to the Western Regions would not be a good way to let them enjoy life. "The Western Regions are indeed not suitable, what about Ningguo?" Mingyi asked.

"Ningguo is fine. There are many miasma in that place. Our people have taken control of Ningguo. All the Gu Masters that should be cleared out have been killed. Our people have learned some tricks from the surrendered Gu Masters. If they dare to make trouble, we will control them the way Ningguo used to do."

Mingyi was amazed, "Our gentlemanly and upright Prince Zhou is becoming more and more sinister."

"Don't blame me. Giving them a place to live is a special favor. If they don't know how to be grateful, what's the point of keeping them? It's a good idea to recycle the waste. I can control them with poisonous insects and send them to work. How great!"

Mingyi did not comment on this. The saying that a useless person must have different hearts does make sense.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Zhou Ting smiled and shook his head, hugged her little body tightly and closed his eyes to rest.

After the carriage entered the city, the foreigners went to the garrison commanders or the runners guarding the city gates to inquire about the matter; some gave silver, some offered benefits, and the main attempt was to bribe them.

The result is clear at a glance.

No one bought it.

The money was collected and the things were taken, but no useful information was given.

Foreigners dare to be angry but dare not speak out.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

There was a caravan in a country outside the grassland. They came to inquire about the news but returned empty-handed. After the spy met his master, he told him the situation. The person sitting in the carriage was a middle-aged man with a beautiful girl beside him, who spoke arrogantly.

"You don't know what's good for you, Aye. Kill them."

The middle-aged man glanced at his daughter calmly and asked the spy, "What kind of sign does that team have?"

"There are no markings on the carriage, but judging from their team, they should be nobles from the northwest. It is very likely that they are engaging in military operations, and the carriage is protected by not only guards but also soldiers." The spy said truthfully.

"Nobles?" the girl asked unhappily. "Nobles in the northwest can enter and leave the city gate at will. What do the common people in the northwest who are queuing to enter the city say?"

This reminded the middle-aged man and the spy.

The middle-aged man said, "Go ask the people."

"Yes."

The spy left again, and this time he went to find a disabled man standing in the middle of the queue. He was holding a daughter and was accompanied by his wife. He was not dressed very well, so he walked up to him, first stuffed money into his pocket and then stuffed something into his pocket.

"Brother, sorry to bother you. I'm a refugee who has fled here. I want to ask you something."

The disabled man pushed back the money and the things, saying, "Don't ask. I know nothing."

"."

The spies returned empty-handed.

He then found another old man who looked older, but before he delivered the things, the old man turned his head away, making it clear that he was ignoring him. He turned around and saw a little boy playing, so he took out some candy to tempt him.

Good guy.

The little boy put candy in his mouth and ran away.

The spy was completely confused and went back to his master to tell him all the problems he had encountered.

The middle-aged man had sinister eyes and a calm face. The girl in the carriage snorted, "People in the northwest are really like stones in the toilet, smelly and hard. They don't want money or supplies. They..."
