I’m Not Really A Study God
Chapter 1826
Xue Cheng, as Zhao Sheng’s crying sounded, more and more families joined the ranks of crying.
There are more than 200 Xiao Family sailors, even if dozens of them are lonely and widowed, without relatives or friends alive, the rest are also involved in more than 100.
The bereavement of more than 100 families, after a big victory with Xuecheng Xiao Mansion, the celebration banquet being held in this city formed a sharp contrast.
Standing on the street of Xuecheng, Su Heng feels the completely different atmosphere in the city. A trace of emotion flashes in his eyes. Is this the result of success? Although the battle between the Xiao Family fleet and the Ventera Duchy fleet can only be regarded as a small-scale war.
After this battle, the two sides died and wounded only a few thousand people, and Ventera Duchy died.
But it was just a small-scale war that caused more than one hundred families in Xuecheng. The trauma was deep enough. Another problem is that human lives are really worthless here. In the prime of life, the 20 tael pension is already a high price, five times the pension!
According to Lu’s food price, 2000 catties of rice is worth the life of a normal young adult! This is still the Xiao Family pension is considered generous. It is five times the amount. If it is regarded as the burnt silver after the death of Lu State officers and soldiers, after deduction, only 2 taels, 200 catties of rice is equivalent to the life of an officer and soldier.
Of course, things like this are very common in the feudal era. Before the general trend here is completely changed, similar things will only happen repeatedly and become a normal state.
In Su Heng’s emotions, he took another meal and looked towards Xue Western District in amazement. After a few breaths, Su Heng’s expression also became subtle, “Originally thought that those who died The resurrected person was transferred to Qi State by me. Even if it will make their families grieve temporarily, the two parties will be reunited soon. This will not affect them much. Didn’t expect,…”
… ……………
Xue Western District, this city is also the living place of the civilians and refugees of Xuecheng, and the living and living place of the bankrupt vagrants. The Zhao Family where Zhao Shun Zhao Sheng is located is in the Western District.
However, Zhao Sheng’s family can have a small courtyard, and life in Xicheng can be considered a good life. In Xicheng, the most miserable and grassroots people are the refugees and the bankrupt wanderers.
Refugees are similar to seaside fishing villages. The town suffered natural disasters such as pirates or tsunami, lost their land and homes and came to Xuecheng for refuge. Lu is a small country, and Xuecheng is not the capital of Lu. Here, there are no official shanty towns for refugees to live in.
Most refugees live on the streets like beggar.
If young adults can be picked up by the Great Family and become servants of the Great Family, the old and the weak will basically survive by luck and begging, the same goes for those who are bankrupt.
Zhumen wine and meat smelly while out on the road lie the frozen bones of the poor, this is the most authentic portrayal of Xue Western District and the bustling Dongcheng District.
But now, Su Heng’s focus is not on refugees or homeless people.
At the entrance of a small courtyard similar to Zhao Family’s in the Western District, an eleven-twelve-year-old pretty girl received a notice from a manager of Xiao Family and learned that her only big brother had died. During a naval battle, he would cry and faint on the spot.
In the great sadness of the girl, a middle-aged couple at the door of the small courtyard, the man also has unspeakable grief on his face, but the woman took over Xiao Family with inexplicable emotions The pension, thanks again and again for sending away the steward’s entire group, used an indescribable expression to constantly look at the girl who was lying on the ground and crying bitterly.
“Yuan’er, it’s okay, it’s okay, even if the voyage is gone, I will definitely raise you, uncle, and your uncle’s house will be your own home.”
When the woman’s expression is inexplicable, the middle-aged man also spirit slowly recovers, trying to comfort the girl with a soft voice. It’s okay for him not to comfort him. When he talked, he was suppressing the crying girl, and she lay on the ground and cried heartbreakingly, gradually crying and fainting.
When the middle-aged sighed helplessly again, the woman hugged the girl and walked back to the house. After dozens of breaths, she waited for the woman to walk out of the hall and glanced around before walking quickly to middle-aged. In front of him, “The girl in charge, Yuan’er is about to grow up. Since Yihang is dead, let’s…”
The middle-aged man was shocked, “What do you mean?”
The woman laughed anxiously, “What do I mean? The young Master of Xu Mansion, but more than once said that she wanted Yuaner to be his maid, and the price was 30 taels last time!”
“Ordinary sailor, only 4 taels for the war dead, Yuaner can sell 30 taels, what else is not satisfied?”
The eleven-twelve-year-old girl, Yuaner, looks really beautiful and small At a young age, there is already a trace of misfortune. In this Xuecheng, even if the little girl has always been simple and simple, she still can’t stand the reputation of spreading in a small area.
The young masters of several small families in Xuecheng are all staring at this girl.
If it weren’t for Guo Yuaner’s big brother, Guo Yihang is the captain of a merchant ship in the Xiao Family fleet. This girl would have been snatched away.
In the feudal era, the lesbians fought cock and walked the dog, bullying men and women. Isn’t that normal in daily life? It’s nothing more than the few young Masters staring at Guo Yuaner. They are all local tyrants in Xuecheng. Compared with Xiao Family, the Lu State Peak gentry family is worlds apart. How can Guo Yuaner have freedom at all?
But now, Guo Yihang died in this time Xiao Family’s war against the Ventera Duchy navy, and the other party could no longer guarantee and protect Guo Yuaner. Then Guo Yuaner was sold, but it was nothing. The common harvest.
30silver taels? Zhao Shun died not far away, and Zhao Sheng’s family got 20 taels of silver. Zhao Shun was just an ordinary sailor.
Guo Yihang is the captain of the sailor, and of course his pension is more than that of Zhao Shun. He paid a full 50 taels of silver.
50 taels of silver, even one tael of silver can be purchased in Lu State. Once rice, it can sell for 50 shi, 5 thousand catties of rice. If it is only used for meals, an adult man eats two catties of rice a day. I can eat it for several years.
In addition, Guo Yuaner herself was offered 30 taels by Xu’s Young Master, which adds up to an incredible fortune. For civilians, this is definitely a windfall.
With the words of the woman, the middle-aged man complexion greatly changed, “Damn, I am Yuan’er’s uncle, you let me sell her? Sell it to the Young Master of the Xu family? You are not I don’t know what kind of stuff the surname Xu is. In Xu Mansion, are there few little maids who were tortured to death by him?”
“Furthermore, we accidentally provoked Liang Family before, if it weren’t for a voyage. , Our family is in great trouble.”
What the middle-aged said is very simple. Three years ago, he was a carpenter and worked for Liang Family for half a year. For wages, the middle-aged wanted to find the Liang Family theory, but was beaten up… Afterwards, he wanted to report to the officer, but was threatened by Liang Family steward with several family members.
If Guo Yihang hadn’t come forward at the time, and with the help of the banner of Liang Family, he would have to peel off his skin if he didn’t die.
In the past few years, their family has been able to be safe, and they have had a pretty good life as a carpenter, thanks to Guo Yihang’s vigor. Many people sell him Xiao Family, an armed merchant ship, for the face of the captain, so that the middle-aged family can be safe.
Guo Yihang just died, his wife wanted to sell his niece? Yes, he is just the cousin of Guo Yihang and Guo Yuaner, not his uncle, but he can’t be so shameless, right?
