Martial Arts: Start by Obtaining the Wild World

Chapter 59 0059 Three Plans
After hearing this, Cheng Guangshan frowned and fell into deep thought. After a moment, he murmured:
"I didn't expect this to happen. Two batches of government grain were robbed. This is a huge matter. It also concerns the stability of the entire Yufeng County.

The four major families sent people to disguise themselves as bandits to rob the two batches of grain. This can be explained as profit. Then why did they want to incite the refugees? What is this for? Do they want to plunge Yufeng County into chaos? This is of no benefit to them. "

Cheng Zongyang shook his head: "No matter what their purpose is, we have no right to interfere, let alone pay attention to it.

The most important thing now is to leave the city before we can. If we can't leave and something goes wrong, we will be at the mercy of others."

However, Cheng Guangshan said, "That's not the case. As long as there is no massacre in the city, those warrior families will not attack civilians because there is no conflict of interest with them."

But Cheng Zongyang retorted: "Although there is no conflict of interest, they can be used as cannon fodder.

To the aristocratic families, the common people at the bottom are like grass and are insignificant.

The most important thing is that no conflict of interest is needed for what the aristocratic families want to do. It’s just a matter of whether they want to or not.”

Cheng Guangshan was silent.

How could he not know what his nephew said? But it was really difficult to ask him to move away now.

After all, it's just their guess.

"Where can we move to? Do we have to leave our hometown like a refugee?" Cheng Guang sighed.

Cheng Zongyang thought for a moment and said:
"Uncle, I won't hide it from you. I have three plans."

At this point, Cheng Guangshan was stunned: "What?"

Three plans at once?

How long has his nephew been plotting in secret?

Cheng Zongyang did not inform him of the situation in the village. It was nothing serious, so there was no need to say anything.

But things are complicated now. Not only his family members need to know his plan, but his second uncle also needs to know it.

He said solemnly:

"First, I bought a house in the county town. According to my plan, the village was attacked by refugees yesterday and it is no longer safe. I want to bring my family and my uncles to the county town. The house is quite big and should be big enough for us to live in."

"What?! The refugees attacked the village? How are your father and mother?! How is things at home?!" Cheng Guangshan's face changed and he asked anxiously.

"My father was slightly injured, but it's not serious." Cheng Zongyang said with a smile.

"That's good." Cheng Guangshan breathed a sigh of relief and then asked, "What's going on with that house?"

"Uncle, this is not important, let's talk about the second plan." Cheng Zongyang diverted the question. Otherwise,

"Second, we should stay in the village. If we can unite with the remaining villagers and work together, as long as there are not too many refugees, we should be able to save the village."

Cheng Guangshan did not express his opinion immediately after hearing this, but began to think. After a moment, he continued to ask: "What about the third one?"

Seeing this, Cheng Zongyang continued to talk about the third plan.

"Third, move to the mountains. I remember that in the mountains of Hechi Village and Jinqiao Village, there were places that, although not too big, were large enough to accommodate many people to open up wasteland and cultivate.

If we cultivate the land there, we will have more than enough space to build houses. This way, we can avoid the unrest caused by refugees and ensure the safety of our homes in the mountains.

Uncle, compared to the situation outside, as long as we can dig out water in the mountains, it won’t be a problem to live in the mountains.”

Cheng Guangshan paced in the courtyard with a serious expression.

The world is changing so fast that even Jinqiao Village is affected, which means that all the villages near the county town are affected. And the situation is still expanding.

This is a phenomenon that cannot be underestimated, but the government has been slow to respond.

Now combined with the four major families mentioned by my nephew, this actually explains why the county town does not care about the plight of the villages.

Of the three plans proposed, the second plan was obviously not feasible. If they continued to stay in the village, even if they scared off a small number of refugees, they would attract more.

The resistance of twenty or thirty sheep might be able to drive back a few hungry wolves, but they would definitely not be able to stop the wolves that would come from behind after hearing the news.

Once they gather together, these people will be like fish on the chopping board, without any ability to resist.

Unless there is a powerful warrior.

But two hands cannot defeat four punches. Even if the warrior is very strong, it is impossible to kill everyone at once.

If some refugees have ulterior motives and take the opportunity to kill other vulnerable people in the family, then the gain will be counterproductive.

But now, he was not sure whether this county town was habitable.

He also knew about the tragic situation outside the city. If he continued to ignore the corpses outside, a plague would inevitably break out!
At that time, the county town might become a miserable hell on earth!
There’s no other reason, there are just too many people gathered outside the county town!

He was not from a noble family, so naturally he could not stand in their shoes and think about their intentions.

On the other hand, the third plan is the safest one among all the plans.

It can ensure safety while staying away from chaos.

The most important thing is that they do not have to leave their hometown far away. They can still learn about the situation in the county town at any time and even have the opportunity to go to the county town to buy daily necessities.

But there are also disadvantages, and the mountains may not be very safe.

Cheng Zongyang did not rush, but just continued to wait.

If we leave together, this clinic will not be able to open and many things will have to be taken away.

Of course, they didn't completely give up on this place. They would return when things calmed down.

The houses are still here, and the deeds and land titles are still in their hands. As long as the county or Daliang does not change its mind and replace the people in charge, and still recognizes the legitimacy of the deeds, they will not lose these houses.

Now he needs to listen to his family's opinions before making the final decision.

At this time, Cheng Zongyang heard his second uncle say:
"You'll have to ask your father about this. But as for me, I still want to live in the city. There are two reasons."

Cheng Guangshan was not impatient, nor did he treat his nephew as a child. Instead, he discussed matters with him as an adult who could make the decisions.

"First of all, your analysis of the county town makes sense. And what you are thinking about is also the worst possible scenario, which is very good. Be prepared for a rainy day and don't do anything you are not mentally prepared for.

But there is a high probability that nothing will happen in the county town, and even if something happens, it will only be outside the city.

As for rebellion, it shouldn't be that. This noble family should have other purposes. But we don't know.

Second, although it is slightly safer in the mountains, there are also many uncertainties. One is the problem of water sources.

There has been drought in the past two years and not a drop of rain has fallen. Not only have the rivers in the village dried up, but even the water levels in the wells in the county have been getting lower and lower.

In addition, there is the environment. Creating a place for multiple people to live in will take more than a few days. Can the family and children adapt during this period?

So, my opinion is to move to the county. Even if something happens, the people in the city will not be forced to go out to fight, right?

Yang'er, as for you, it's not too late to go back and discuss with your parents and uncles before making a decision.

This concerns the whole family, and even the smallest matter is a big deal. It is better to go slow than to rush for success."

After Cheng Zongyang heard what his second uncle said, he also remembered his meaning and nodded:
"I will. In that case, I'll go back first."

"Let's go back. The city gates close early now. It's safer to go back early." Cheng Guangshan nodded.
