At the same time, although the people from the government had a bad attitude, they still told them in a low voice. His Highness the King of Qin said that this year there will be not only a drought but also a plague of locusts. Put the chickens and ducks in the ground to eat some insect eggs or something, and then they will feel better.

For people in such a small place, the emperor, prince, etc., is just a code name that is illusory, lofty like a god and Buddha, only knowing its name but not its person.

Although the folk stories about Zhang Nuo, His Highness the King of Qin, are no different from gods and Buddhas, when it comes to their own practical matters, they are still more willing to trust the elders in their own village or follow in the footsteps of the local rich. .

I don’t know if the rich people here are going to fight against Zhang Nuo or what, Mingming Chaotang has already explained it, but here they sneered, thinking that the food supply at this time is the time when the food is scarce and the price of food is the highest. Storing grain, I’m afraid I’m going to sell grain to make money. If I don’t buy it, I have food to eat now, so I won’t starve to death.

Well, as soon as this attitude came out, the local people immediately felt that I am afraid this is the truth. Now that the family still has some rations, they can barely survive. I'm afraid it will be for nothing this year.

So, everyone took the chickens and ducks with their mouths curled up, but the vast majority of people put aside the matter of stockpiling grain, and instead looked cheerfully at the occasional few in the village who were really brave enough to stockpile grain People, just wait to see the joke.

But after waiting, I realized something was wrong. This year’s rain seems to be a little less. At this time, some people were a little bit impatient, and rushed to the local big family’s house to inquire about it.

But the answer to come is still what to do.

But as the weather is getting hotter, everyone can't sit still. This Nima is obviously the most typical drought. There is no need to count on this year's harvest.

But these families have been shut down, and they are really not working every day. The big families who originally welcomed everyone to come to drink bowls of water have closed their doors at this time, and they are afraid of other people. People used to borrow food.

After all, the landlord's family doesn't have any surplus food. If the hole is opened, who knows if the big guys will flock to it, and I'm afraid there will be troubles at that time.

And as the drought became more and more serious, many people also slapped themselves at home. People in the government said before that His Royal Highness King Qin had expected a severe drought this year, so he made preparations early, but he was stupid I can't believe it, it's all right now, even if I have money, I can't buy food.

But people, it's better to live than to die. I have a cheap life, but the mother-in-law and baby at home can't just starve to death.

There is no other way, so run away.

This is also a helpless method that has been circulated for many years, that is, to beg for food, and the family will go on the road together, and they will go all the way. Anyway, some big families in every place will come out to set up a porridge shop or something during the famine year. For porridge, if you beg for food all the way, you might be able to survive.

The whole of Longyou seemed lifeless this summer, except for the increasingly annoying chirping of cicadas, everyone was disheartened.

But at this time, people from the government came to the door, and what they said was unbelievable but had to be believed.

It's still the same attitude that there is nothing good to say about it before, even worse than before, with an attitude that you believe it or not, I will leave after I finish speaking.

"You bastards, please listen to me. His Majesty has arranged for people to arrange food from Chang'an and Luoyang. His Royal Highness King Qin has also donated money. I just don't want you bastards to starve to death!"

"But the food and money are not taken for nothing. I give them to work. The elderly and children in the family also have a ration, but for your own rations, you take your own wives to earn them. Anyway, the rules set by His Royal Highness King Qin are to work. Get more and get more!"

"As long as you bastards work hard, not only will you be able to survive this year's calamity, but you may even earn a fortune for the New Year! Can you hear me clearly!"

Everyone quietly watched the arrester who came out of the yamen, but they didn't say a word!

It's not that they don't believe it, but they can't believe it. During these famine years, they are not the only ones affected by disasters. How can they still provide food and money when disasters are everywhere?

Moreover, His Royal Highness King Qin actually donated money, so how rich must his old man be, he probably has a mountain of gold in his family.

As soon as this question was raised, the policeman laughed a few times in disdain,

"You bastards are really ignorant, saying that other I don't know, but His Royal Highness, I do know a little bit. My eldest brother is also a hero in the army. Needless to say, he is skilled in martial arts. He offended people in the early years. You can't get mixed up in the army anymore."

"But His Royal Highness King Qin greeted me, and my eldest brother followed His Royal Highness King Qin and beat down the entire Goryeo. In the Sui Dynasty, millions of people died, but nothing happened. As for His Highness King Qin, [-] people beat up Goryeo. Completely and thoroughly!"

"Furthermore, my eldest brother sent back dozens of coins, all of which were given by His Royal Highness King Qin. Do you think His Highness King Qin has any money?"

Chapter 643 New Atmosphere in the Disaster Area

This person, that's it, I still feel that the things in front of my eyes are the most real. I said before that His Majesty and the King of Qin are too far away, but if you say that the big brother who is fast has fought with His Highness King Qin and earned dozens of money, then the place People will know, oh, it is true that His Royal Highness Qin Wang has a golden mountain in his home, and there is more than one golden mountain.

This is the most simple value of the people. Even the big soldiers who followed the war can earn tens of thousands of money, so the old man Qin Wang is probably really rich.

Especially when a lot of people who know the details of the arrester quietly talked about how his elder brother's house was not satisfactory before, but now he lives in a big house, and takes over his parents to take care of him. .

With such a living example in front of them, these people finally feel a little more confident. After all, if there is a way, who is willing to go out to beg for food.

You must know that in the past years, there were not times when there were no disasters. Basically, at least half of those who went out to flee the famine died outside, and eventually buried their bones in other places and became lonely ghosts.

Now it's all right, if you have this kind of work done by the government, let's not talk about whether the salary is not paid, at least the family will not have to starve to death, but now it depends on when it starts.

Therefore, everyone in Longyou was looking forward to when this project under the banner of the emperor and King Qin would start.

I have to say, this person, after having hope, his energy and spirit are different. The originally decadent and listless men are now waiting for the government's notice eagerly.

As a result, within two or three days, Li Zheng banged the gong and shouted in the village, saying that the government recruited people and disaster relief people came.

Upon hearing the news, the old and young men in the village who can stay at home will rush out.

As a result, when I arrived at the village, I saw that the thief was so real. It was just a carload of food parked directly at the entrance of the village, and then it was the previous unsightly policeman, accompanied by a few officials who were not locals at first glance. whisper something.

After seeing that everyone was there, the policeman came out after asking the people next to him for instructions, and started shouting loudly,

"Mother Dut, listen up, we've already shipped the food, but this food isn't for you bastards!"

"This is for the elderly and children in your family, and for yourselves. After you register with Lizheng later, you can go to work and earn it yourself. Anyway, you go to pay for meals. How much you earn is up to you!"

Speaking of this, the policeman suddenly curled his lips, gave a meaningful laugh, and continued,

"Here, let me tell you some news, that is the Wang family village next door. I have already said that they will not only make money when they go back this time, but also replace their families with big tile houses. As for you bastards How much you can earn at that time is up to you!"

Well, if the previous words just made these men who only do some rough farm work in this life blush with excitement, then when the latter words came out, the eyes of the young and old in the whole village immediately turned red.

This is the case in the countryside. Regardless of the fact that everyone in the two adjacent villages is farming, they should have a good relationship, but in fact, the two villages have not fought each other once or twice.

Especially when the drought was severe this year, the two villages struggled to get water from a small ditch this year.

That is to say, this year both sides are thinking of calming things down, after all, they are in a hurry to go out to escape the famine, otherwise, they are still thinking about how to fight a big fight right now.

Now that the deadly enemy said that they want to earn a big tile house and come back, this damn, are they worse than others?
