Chapter 81
Zhang Zhao raised his head and watched Shen Yunxi and others leave.Then he said slowly: "I don't know why. I always feel that the people in this village are very different. They are not satisfied with the status quo.

You see, many people are willing to accept the help of the local government and be satisfied with the status quo, but they would rather risk starvation and find a new way of life.

There are many barren lands and mountains in the south.If we can open up fertile land, we can transfer more disaster victims to barren areas to open up wasteland, which is beneficial to the country and the people. "

The boy seemed to understand, but he also wrote down the names and looks of the former Li Huacun and Shen Yunxi.

Along the way, he followed the young master through thousands of mountains and rivers.He was used to seeing the young master's indifferent side, but also saw the young master's compassionate side.

Under the leadership of the guards, they walked for three days and three nights, and finally came to the barren mountain.

There are seven mountains, two rivers and one field, and there is no road ahead.

In the past three days, everyone has been worried, eager for a new life, and afraid of unknown pain.

The guard pointed to this area and said in a low voice: "This is the westernmost mountain range in Yueyang Prefecture. It is 80 miles away from the nearest county seat. This is a piece of land that has no owner. You can open up wasteland here."

Shen Yunxi observed the environment in front of him.The vegetation is lush, with rivers, ditches and streams.Although there are few flat lands, the slopes are not steep and terraced fields can be opened up.

Village Chief Tian looked around and said to the guards: "Thank you very much. This will be the former Lihua Village in the future."

"The climate in the south is humid, and there are two or three harvests a year. It's still time to open up wasteland and farm. Four months later, my young master will send someone over." Before leaving, the guard explained that he hoped these people could open up wasteland. , settled down with his own hands.

Chief Tian Cun nodded again and again: "Thank you, Lord Guard, thank you, Lord Imperial Envoy."

Although the guards just took them to a deserted place, Chief Tian was very grateful.

When the guards left, there were 103 people in Lihua Village, old and young, with pitiful expressions and even a little at a loss.

Yang Dacui was very worried, "The head of the family, our food will not last long..."

Chief Tamura also calmed down. "Fear not. There are no bandits here. There may be beasts, but we have weapons. Fear not!"

Shen Yunxi jumped off the bullock cart and ran to the side of the stream.When he saw fish in the creek, he laughed and shouted, "There are fish in the creek. Come and catch them!"

Shen Yunxi's crisp voice freed everyone from their disappointment, and everyone ran to her.

"Oh, there are a lot of fish. The south is rich in products. Even if we have nothing, we are not afraid of having nothing. As long as we are diligent, we can always find food."

"Yes, I think there is a lot of fruit on this tree."

"I can weave fishing nets. The jute over there can be peeled and made into twine and nets."

"I can do carpentry and build a house."

"I'm good enough to reclaim wasteland."

Everyone encouraged each other and smiled.

"But we don't have seeds!" Tian Tieshuan scratched his head, "But we don't have seeds?"

Everyone was stunned again.

At this time, Shen Yunxi encouraged him loudly and said: "What are you afraid of? We have more or less money on us. When we settle down, we can buy seeds. It's not far from the county seat, and we can go back and forth in two days."

Chief Tian also quickly said: "Yes, we can buy seeds. The women fish and cook in the stream. The men see where we are suitable for settlement."

Chief Tian Cun, together with thirty or forty young people, began to look for a place to settle down.
