Although everyone has been mentally prepared for the famine to come, everyone is still at a loss when the famine comes.

Some people pointed at the sky and scolded: "God, how did we offend you, you didn't even give us a way to live?!"

It's just that no matter how much they scolded, it still didn't rain, and there was only a shallow layer of water left in the river, and there was not much water left in the well.

Ji Li sighed: "Fortunately, your supernatural ability can produce water, otherwise I don't know how to live today."

He has bathed every day since he was a child, and if he doesn't wash for a day, he will feel itchy all over his body. If it weren't for the water that Qi Xinyang conjured up, he would rather die of thirst and take a bath!

"It's a pity that this water can't be drunk..." It's not like he hasn't tried it before. It's sweet when he first put it in his mouth, but when he's about to swallow it, there's nothing left. Should he be thirsty or thirsty...

Qi Xinyang said aggrievedly: "I'm useless, to let the angel have no water to drink..."

As a supernatural being, he can't guarantee the basic life of his partner. What qualifications does he have to find a partner? !

Ji Li patted his head and said: "You are already very powerful, now whoever wants to take a bath can't wash it!"

Take a shower for a few days at most.

It's scary to think about...

Qi Xinyang whispered: "You can use more force..."

Ji Li slapped him directly, he can always make him furious when he wants to be emotional...

He snorted and said, "Go to the city to see if Li Sanniang has brought water."

There is no way to achieve the South-to-North Water Diversion mentioned by Qi Xinyang, so we can only find someone to transport it.

But fortunately, it is only used by their family, and there is nothing wrong with less water.

"it is good!"

Qi Xinyang and Ji Li arrived at the city gate in a donkey cart only to find that the city gate was already crowded with refugees.

"I didn't expect this day to come." Although I was mentally prepared for the refugees to pass by, I still felt very uncomfortable seeing them squatting in a corner drinking porridge with the sky as their bed and the ground as their bed.

I don't know when it will rain...

"Why don't they enter the city?" Qi Xinyang asked curiously.

The person next to him laughed and said, "There's only such a small place in the city, where should we live if they're all in?"

"Besides, who knows what these refugees have done before." There are so many famines who exchange their children for food. Who knows what they did on the way?Wouldn't it be dangerous to let them enter the city?

Ji Li frowned and said, "Scholar, your words are too harsh, aren't you?"

"Am I wrong?" The scholar sneered, "It's already good enough to give them porridge outside the city, we shouldn't covet more."

When Ji Li and the scholar were about to quarrel, Qi Xinyang asked, "Are they refugees?"

He has been listening to Lin Qing and Ji Li talking about what to do when refugees come, but this is the first time he has seen the refugees they are talking about.

To be honest, when he saw these refugees, he felt that he had returned to the end of the world for a moment. It was the same at that time. Many ordinary people outside the base used the sky as their bed and the ground as their bed, and ate the handouts in the base in rags.

And this is still in those bases that are kinder, most of the bases will not give them food!

There is not enough land in the base, and there are few people with wood-type abilities. The food grown is not enough for the people in the base, so how can it be distributed to others?

The supernatural beings are the main force to deal with zombies. The first thing to ensure is that they can take action without being too hungry. As for ordinary people, it depends on the contribution and the remaining food.

It's not that ordinary people are useless. Most of the supernatural beings go out to fight zombies, and the operation of the base often depends on ordinary people. As long as they can work, they can more or less get a little food.

And these ordinary people outside the base are not capable of fighting zombies themselves, and they don't want to do some dirty work, so they want to be salted fish under the protection of others.

But when there is not enough food to eat, who wants to raise more people who cannot contribute?

The base is naturally unwilling, so the base will drive them out, hoping that they can see the cruel world outside and understand that the base is not easy, and stop being lazy.

But everyone underestimated their laziness. They found that the people in the base outside the base would not just watch them being bitten to death by zombies, nor would they watch them starve to death, so they directly pressed their homes outside the base. .

In fact, what is the difference between refugees at this time and those who just hang around outside the base and wait to die?

"Have they been waiting here for the porridge?"

Ji Li nodded and said: "After all, they have nowhere to go, the county magistrate can't just watch them starve to death."

"If you enter the city, hurry up and line up, don't whisper!" The guards shouted.

The team quieted down instantly, for fear that they would not be allowed to enter the city because of their noise.

After the donkey cart entered the city, Qi Xinyang said, "Let's go find Lin Qing!"

Ji Li asked in surprise, "Why do you want to find him all of a sudden?" Didn't you annoy him before?

Let him see if the sun has come out from the west today.

The sun didn't come out from the west, why did you take the initiative to find Lin Qing?

"Tell him about those refugees outside." When he thought of his food being wasted in their stomachs, his heart ached!

"Do you have a solution?"

"Although I don't know how to solve it, I can't waste it!"

waste what?

Ji Li thought of those porridges, he seemed to know what Qi Xinyang thought was a waste...

Lin Qing was also very surprised when he saw Qi Xinyang looking for him, and then said happily: "Are you here to give me a prescription?"

He had to sigh, fortunately the county magistrate had a certain appeal, and he could get all the craftsmen in the city to help him research things, otherwise he would not have been able to get other prescriptions from Qi Xinyang.

"Can you think of anything else besides the prescription in my hand every day?" Qi Xinyang said contemptuously, "I'm here to tell you about the refugees outside the city."

Lin Qing was disappointed for a while, then remembered that Qi Xinyang took the initiative to talk to him about the refugees, obviously he has a way!

He excitedly said: "Do you have a way?"

"I also want those refugees to enter the city, but there are too many of them, and I can't record them. The master book is about to collapse."

Entering the city in ancient times was not an easy task, you had to have customs clearance documents, but they just ran away for their lives and didn't know where to lose the customs clearance documents. Now he can only ask people to check the records one by one.

Qi Xinyang was speechless: "Then what happens after they enter the city?"

"Of course it is to find a place to live for them!" Lin Qing said with a headache, "It's just that there are too few empty houses in the city..."

Qi Xinyang was about to laugh out of anger, "You give them both to live and to eat, you might as well be their parents."

Lin Qing hesitated: "Is it wrong for me to do this?" But everyone used to do this...

Ji Li was also distressed, because the refugees were not from the county, and they would go back after the famine was over, and they would not be farming the land they were allocated, so what would happen to the land?

Moreover, the government has a lot of land, so they can't cultivate it for free, otherwise the county town and nearby villages will be dissatisfied.

"They don't have to do anything, you contribute everything, and then they will just wait for food every day." Qi Xinyang said angrily, "Won't my food be in vain?!"

The last sentence is the point, right?

Lin Qing was not angry either, and asked, "What should I do then?"

"Of course they are made to work! Only after they have worked will they be able to eat!" Qi Xinyang took it for granted.

"But what work do you do for them?" They don't have much work to do...

Qi Xinyang gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it a job to set up a memorial arch? Is it a job to grow potatoes?"

Isn't it easy to find a job in this kind of place with only manpower?How dare you ask him what kind of work he has? !

Is he the county magistrate or is Lin Qing the county magistrate?

If he doesn't even know about such a trivial matter, he should step down as soon as possible!

Lin Qing was embarrassed by Qi Xinyang, he didn't think of it for a while after so many things happened recently...

Ji Li asked: "But if the land is divided, other people will be dissatisfied?"

Qi Xinyang said: "It's not about giving them land, but giving them the right to use it. They get as many bowls of rice as they want every day."

Ji Li looked at Qi Xinyang with a profiteer's face, "Will anyone agree to this?"

When I was at home, I still collected food according to the share, and now I don’t even own the food. Will anyone seriously dare to do it?

But his family's little rascal is indeed a profiteer. If he is allowed to do business, their family doesn't know how much they will earn.

"Try it, anyway, we can't give them food for free!" Qi Xinyang gritted his teeth.

However, Lin Qing's eyes lit up and said: "This is a good way!"

Most of these refugees are farmers themselves, and it is definitely better for them to farm than to do other things.

In addition, it is not sure whether potatoes can be grown now. Anyway, they will eat porridge, so that they can make the best use of them and not waste his men.

As for their displeasure?

Then give porridge to those who are willing, and continue to be hungry for those who are not happy!

He managed to get so much food so he couldn't waste it in vain!

Lin Qing had been infected by Qi Xinyang unknowingly...

"Not only that, you have to get someone to set up a memorial arch as soon as possible. I heard that some merchants have begun to speak badly. I don't believe you will erect a memorial arch."

Lin Qing said furiously, "I've already decided to set up an archway for them, how dare they doubt me?!"

Is he the kind of person who doesn't talk?

Qi Xinyang spread his hands and said, "Isn't it because you haven't done anything yet?"

"You didn't even ask about No.1's life, so you decide whether people will suspect it?"

Lin Qing said loudly: "The government has their life stories, so I still need to ask?!"

Qi Xinyang glanced at him and said, "Then do you know why Li Sanniang suddenly changed from a prostitute to a business boss?"

"It seems that because she is rich..."

"Don't you doubt that she suddenly became so rich when she had no money before?"

Ji Li frowned when he heard this, didn't Qi Xinyang not want to be exposed in front of others?Why do you want to say it all of a sudden?

Lin Qing didn't know what kind of connection Li Sanniang had with them, so he said directly: "She's a sensational figure in the capital after all, so it's normal to be rich, right?"

This is also the reason Li Sanniang said before going into business, because of her previous status, no one would suspect where her money came from.

But Qi Xinyang must have doubts when he asked him this.

"Is there something wrong with the money?"

Qi Xinyang took it for granted: "Of course there is no problem!" These are just the mental damage fees Li Youcai gave him!

"Isn't that a problem?" As a county magistrate, he has to investigate anyone who suddenly has money, so he doesn't have to sleep!

Qi Xinyang hated iron but said: "Don't you have any curiosity to ask?"

"No." Lin Qing said ruthlessly. Curiosity killed the cat, so he wouldn't let curiosity kill himself.

But Qi Xinyang is so concerned...

Lin Qing narrowed her eyes and said, "She doesn't have anything to do with you, does she?"

"Want to know? Just ask!" Qi Xinyang sneered and pulled Ji Li away.

Ji Li asked curiously, "Why are you suddenly exposed?"

Qi Xinyang groaned, "How can I have no name when I deliver so much food?"

Ji Li stared at him suspiciously, is that really the case?
