"Sir, what you say is serious, there really is such a good place in the world."

When the old village chief heard this, he excitedly stepped forward to grab Ziyu's hand and ask for details, but was blocked by a bowl that suddenly stretched out.

"Sit down, don't touch my wife!" Li Bai said angrily.

If it weren't for Ziyu's liking to fool people, he wouldn't be bothered to care about how these people live.

"what?

Son...Madam? "

A word from Li Bai made it difficult for those who stayed in the inn. The noble young man in front of him is obviously a man, so why has he become a wife again.

"Hahaha, it's convenient to go out for walking!

What I'm saying is the truth. My husband and I have traveled the rivers and lakes for many years, and we have been to most places in this continent.

The current situation is falling apart, and the best place is Daxia Bay.

As long as the people who go there are hardworking and willing to work, they will not worry about not having enough to eat.

And before the spring plowing this year, the land will be distributed free of charge, and taxes will be exempted for three years.

Serving as a soldier is voluntary, and the family receives preferential treatment, not to mention money, so many people sign up voluntarily.

Elderly people like the old village head are given sugar, meat and a tael of silver for Mid-Autumn Festival and Chinese New Year, which is said to be an activity to care for the elderly. "

Ziyu pressed Li Bai's hand and shook her head at him.

Although these people are poor, they are much better than the coolies on the mountain. At least they still have a heart to live.

Instead of waiting for others to deliver everything, I have no intention of fighting.

...

"This... this... this is too good!

My old man has lived for 58 years, and I have never heard of such a good place. "

The old village chief suddenly thought, could it be that the youngest son also ran to some Daxia Bay, but because he was too far away, he couldn't pass the news to them for a while.

"Ma'am, there are 180 people in our village, all of whom belong to the same surname.

There are more young and old and women, and only 32 young and middle-aged people. Will you accept them? "

"Accept, I think they will accept as long as they are not big treacherous people, and even real beggars are allocated fields.

Like the little beggars without adults, some are adopted, and some are combined into a family with several older children.

The village where they live has also repaired the house, and there is not a single beggar living outside in Daxia Bay.

Like now, when people are out of business, there are many opportunities to work in Daxia Bay, as long as they don't steal or play tricks.

A strong laborer can earn one liter of wheat and twenty copper coins a day. "

A person with a three-inch tongue can speak the truth, which is of course more convincing.

...

"My God! A liter of wheat!
Our family has never eaten a liter of wheat during Chinese New Year, isn't that a fairy-like day. "

"Your family can still see wheat during the Chinese New Year, but my family has paid taxes, and the only thing left is a small half-basket of shriveled wheat.

Just like that, I dare not eat it, and I have to grind it into flour to exchange for coarse grains. "

"go with!"

"Young master, I want to go too!"

When the old shopkeeper heard this, he didn't even want his own inn, so he hurriedly expressed his heart.

There are eight people in his family. According to what your lady said, one person has two acres of land and one field of land, so the division will not amount to 24 acres.

He still knows how to settle this account. Just thinking about it makes him drool all over the place. It's a field that he hasn't been able to earn in his entire life of running an inn.

There are so many fields to grow, who wants to open an inn!

Let the youngest son eat official food again, wouldn't it mean that he has the backing and the land? Thinking about that day, it would be a beautiful day.

Ziyu saw that the fanfare was almost done, so she said quietly.

"You can go, but you can't leak the news, so as not to be known by the fat man just now.

No one can leave, so don't say I won't help you then. "

"Understand, understand!"

"Your Madam, when will we leave, so we can go back and prepare." The sober old village head asked the most important words.

"Two days later, in the early morning, try to travel lightly.

Don't bring all the jars and pots, it is enough to bring clothes, food and agricultural tools for self-defense.

One more thing, don't call me madam, it's inconvenient on the road. "

"Okay, let's go back and prepare now!"

The whole group of people lost their minds about eating broth now. It is a big deal for a large family to relocate, and it doesn't mean that they can leave immediately.

Whose family doesn't have any relatives, but it can be said that the surrounding villages are all relatives, and it's a lifetime thing to leave.

"Go, go! Our husband and wife just happened to pick you up along the way." Ziyu waved her hands generously.

She looked so much like a kind person who did good deeds, but she didn't know that this was exactly her plan.

Ziyu's original plan was to take a group of prisoners back, but she couldn't find a suitable place for a while, and it was easy to alarm the government.

In addition, the group of coolies in the cottage disappointed her too much, so she stopped her original thoughts.

...

When night fell, villagers flocked from all directions, all holding a thick bowl in their hands.

Ziyu, who was standing at the entrance of the inn, initially estimated that there were nearly 1000 people, which really surprised her.

She didn't expect that there were so many people hiding in this remote village. She thought it would be a big deal if there were 600 people.

Based on the population casualties in the southern country, less than [-]% of a village survived the disaster, which shows how high the death rate is.

This has also caused a lot of land to be uncultivated, and there is no need to pay taxes if it is left unused. Once the land is broken, it will face huge taxes.

The unallocated land in Daxiawan was all cultivated by the local garrison, which was considered part of their own rations.

...

Seeing that the number of people who came exceeded expectations, and the prepared broth and steamed buns must have been insufficient, the sweaty old shopkeeper stepped forward to discuss with Ziyu what to do.

"Just add more water, and then add the steamed buns to the water and boil them until they become mushy, so that everyone can taste them."

"My lord, we each bring a handful of vegetables."

The old village chief who came home had already put on a clean patched shirt and his hair was combed brightly.

"Okay, the old village chief and the old shopkeeper presided over the distribution of soup for everyone. It's a wish that there are not many things."

Ziyu responded generously, except for a few people who knew she was a woman, no one could tell her gender.

His face is no longer fair and tender, and his speech and actions are undoubtedly the same as those of men walking outside.

When a large group of people ate the broth, it was already an hour later, and the broth sent to the town official's house had long been forgotten.

Because at this time, the town official was being beaten on the widow's kang by two tigresses at home, so he couldn't think of any broth.

Pi Erqi and others who were mixed in the crowd got a new mission and disappeared into the night.

...

In Yanxi Town, where the weather is calm and the sea is calm, the days will go on as usual when the sun rises, but there is no more beggar on the street.

Even the more than 20 beggars who live in the Earth Temple are also busy looking for wild vegetables, boiling wild vegetables, weaving straw sandals, and carrying baskets.

Ping Shilan's hands full of calluses were rubbing the straw rope quickly, with a longing smile on her face from time to time.

"Mother, when we get there, we will have a good life, and Dad's leg can be treated by a doctor.

When I earn money, I will send my younger brother to a private school. It would be great if the eldest brother and the second brother are still alive. "

Ping Shilan who was talking lowered her head and shed a line of tears.

She misses her elder brother and second brother so much, if they are in the family, they don't have to run away.
