Back To The Beginning Of Ming To Do Charity

When winter is approaching, the staff dormitory has finally been built. The craftsmen have stayed here for more than half a year, and it is time to leave.

Standing in front of the dormitory, Lin Yuan was very satisfied. Compared with modern bungalows, this house is not bad, and it has three floors, which is considered a relatively difficult building in this era.

Except for the craftsmen, the victims who have built houses here for more than half a year all showed mournful expressions. The victims work here. Although they have no wages, they can eat enough and wear warm clothes. They can also eat some minced meat every few days. , such a day is too rare in this world.

"Boss, I can farm the land." When the victim saw Lin Yuan, he fell to his knees with tears in his eyes, "I don't want wages."

When he knelt down, the victims behind him also knelt down. They were all middle-aged people, male and female, all young, but they already had old faces on their faces.

Lin Yuan didn't intend to let them go at first. Now only Yang Zi'an's brothers are farming, but there are [-] of them extracting oil, and only [-] of them are farming. This small group of people can manage so many lands, except They are not only old peasants, but more importantly, they are physically strong.

These people are already preparing to take over the family years ago and settle down here.

Lin Yuan helped the man who knelt down first, and patted him on the shoulder: "I never told you to leave, but anyone who wants to stay can stay, as long as you work hard, you can fill your stomach .”

"Master! Master! I kowtow to you!" Someone yelled, and the group of people knocked their heads to the ground. They didn't put on a show, they kowtowed for real.

Lin Yuan didn't speak, he didn't know what to say, it was too shocking.

When he was still living in modern times, let alone kowtow, no one would bow to him.

In the evening, the craftsmen left in an ox cart. Their families were all in Wucheng, and they had earned a sum of money in half a year.

Strange to say, during the period from the beginning of autumn to the beginning of winter, there were not many conflicts between the refugees and the common people in Wucheng.

Jiang Gui sent news that it turned out that there were more than a dozen big families in Wucheng who gave out cakes outside the city every day. Probably because there were too many refugees and the capital for giving porridge was not enough, so they replaced it with bean dregs cakes. The refugees don’t pick these, as long as they can eat. So the tense atmosphere in Wucheng eased down.

Jiang Gui didn't have an easy time during this period, the yamen was getting busier and busier. As a small official, Jiang Gui didn't have much to take care of. I heard someone shouting outside: "The refugees have rushed in! The refugees have entered the city!"

The refugees have been hungry for so long, and they don't have much energy at first, but when they are in a desperate situation, they can always burst out with energy beyond imagination.

Wucheng's troops are limited, and these refugees have no weapons, so they can use whatever they get on the street to fight people.

When the first person dies in the fight, the fight can no longer be easily stopped.

It must end with the total defeat of one of the parties.

Before the end, people will die one after another.

Jiang Gui quickly fastened the door, and went back to the house in two or three steps, telling everyone in the family not to leave the house, and then opened the window a small crack to observe the situation outside. Jiang Gui's wife, Chen Shi, covered her mouth and almost call out.

They saw a ragged, skeleton-like refugee throw a passerby down. He opened his mouth and bit the man's throat fiercely. The pedestrian's flesh and blood flowed down the corner of his mouth.

He doesn't look human anymore.

But his goal was not to eat human flesh. After the man was killed, he began to search the man's belongings in a panic.

Chen's face turned pale, and she grabbed Jiang Gui's arm in panic, screaming in her ears.

There are refugees, officers, soldiers and pedestrians.

If the officers and soldiers were killed, the refugees would break into the house.

Jiang Gui made a decisive decision: "Let's go, you go and call your parents and the eldest son, I will drive the car, let's go now."

Chen ran into the yard in a panic.

When she entered the yard, she heard screams from the neighbor's house next door, which almost made her sit on the ground.

But she still called out her parents and parents-in-law with a blank face.

Jiang’s family is a two-way street, and there is a small road behind, where the donkey is tied. The donkey cart is no better than the ox cart or the horse cart, but four old people and one child, riding in the donkey cart is always faster than traveling by themselves.

Jiang Gui was leading the donkey in front, and Mrs. Chen was walking beside her. Behind her was Wucheng, which was their home. Mrs. Chen would look back as soon as she walked, and shed a tear at each glance. When they left, there was nothing. They escaped penniless. Although they saved their lives, Mrs. Chen knew that without money, without food, and the world was so big, where could they go?

"Go to my righteous brother." Jiang Gui seemed to see his wife's worry, he said, "My righteous brother has land in the countryside."

Mrs. Chen was a little apprehensive: "We rushed to defect because we were afraid..."

Jiang Gui knew what his wife was afraid of. She was afraid that Lin Yuan would not want to take them in. After all, taking in a few more people at this time would give them more mouths to eat, and they were righteous brothers, not real brothers. Besides, they were relatives. There are also times when brothers fight against each other.

"In the end...going to try it." Jiang Gui was also a little uncertain.

They don't dare to take the main road, they only follow the small road, and if they hear the sound of people, they will hide in the woods.

No one knew what was going on in Wucheng, and Jiang Gui didn't dare to think about it.

"It's on fire." Chen looked at the opposite direction of Wucheng, and the billowing smoke shot straight into the sky.

Jiang Gui: "Don't look, let's go."

Wucheng is over, Jiang Gui thought silently.

When he saw Jiang Gui, Lin Yuan was taken aback. He knew Wucheng would be in chaos, but he didn't expect it to be like this. Jiang Gui described the current Wucheng as a hell on earth, and Lin Yuan quickly comforted him: " Third brother, you can rest assured."

The family was placed in the staff dormitory. The beds in the staff dormitory were specially made by Lin Yuan by the carpenter. They were bunk beds. A room can accommodate six people. There are tables, chairs and benches, but they cannot cook and boil water. All these have to be in the dormitory. Get outside.

"Brother Jiang." Lin Yuan found Jiang Gui at night, "In a few days, you and I will go to the nearby villages and towns. We have to collect food and come back."

Jiang Gui was sitting on the ground, he had regained his energy, and nodded in agreement.

Jiang Gui also knew in his heart that even if he and Lin Yuan were righteous brothers, they couldn't take advantage of it for nothing, and had to do something to prove that he was not living for nothing.

Now both Li Congrong and Yang Zian have to go to the fields, and the oil factory is still extracting oil, but these oils will not be sold anymore, but self-produced and sold. When there is too much oil, they will no longer be pressed. People also went to the ground with hoes.

Yang Zian and Li Congrong didn't say anything after they knew about Wucheng.

The news couldn't be hidden, and soon, everyone knew what happened in Wucheng.

When working, everyone was more silent and worked harder, and no one was cheating or cheating.

Sometimes with one more grain, maybe there is a little more chance of survival.
