Improper cannon fodder for fast wear

Chapter 225 A World With More Men and Less Women 17
So at the moment, apart from a few who were particularly unwilling to leave their hometown, about 50 other people, including the old lady Zhang, expressed their willingness to go to Yunyang Mansion with An Ran, and An Ran helped them leave a letter on the wall of the house with charcoal, telling the family Where did they go.

I am not afraid of what will happen if this information is seen by the two warring parties. After all, who will control where a small commoner goes to escape.

Right now, An Ran tried to get some food for those who couldn’t leave and those who were going to leave—actually, she went to the kitchen of Zhang Wentian’s barracks to steal some. Anyway, she only needs to give a few grains to dozens of people, and she can still get this stuff—because there are not many people stealing, so she gave more to those who stayed behind, and those who went on the road only brought a day's worth of grain, An Ran told them , When we leave this place tomorrow, there will be a place where we can get food (it’s nothing more than going to the big family’s house to pick up the sheep), and it’s not too late. Everyone still trusts An Ran and has no objections. Hit the road with 50 people willing to go.

The old, the weak, the sick, and the handicapped couldn't walk fast, so they walked and rested. By the end of the next day, they had only walked fifty miles, but at least they were far away from the battlefield.

And An Ran really brought everyone a new day's food.

After walking like this for two days, a group of people arrived at the riverside without any accidents on the way. That's right, the battlefield is nearby, and the fleeing people have already left. , So apart from being on guard against the soldiers on both sides of the war, there is really nothing to be afraid of.

"We won't buy grain for the time being. We will talk about it on the other side of the river. The price of grain over there is much cheaper."

After all, there is the natural danger of the Yongjiang River, and everyone feels that Zhang Thief can't beat it for a while, so the food price is okay, although it has also risen, but it has not yet risen to the point of five taels of silver per stone.

Naturally, everyone had no objection to An Ran's proposal—what opinion could they have? The food these days was all given by An Ran, and they didn't have a few copper coins in their hands (the country people were already poor, and when their families fled, they would pay Almost all the family wealth was taken away, so the group of them who stayed where they were waiting to die naturally had no money), even if they wanted to buy food, they had no money to buy it.

An Ran took everyone to the other side by boat, and the bustling people on the other side and the peace far away from gunpowder smoke made this group of war-torn people feel so excited that they shed tears.

"Well, I don't know where my children have gone. At the beginning, I also said that I wanted to come to Jiangnan, but I don't know if it is in the Yunyang mansion you mentioned. At that time, I thought, I am such an old woman, and there is nothing at home. , Those soldiers and bandits wouldn’t trouble me, they didn’t want to move, so they stayed at home. I didn’t expect them to take away my old woman’s last things. If I had known this, I would have gone with the children. "The old lady Zhang sighed.

Originally, she really didn't want to leave, after all, she was afraid of dying in a foreign land and becoming a ghost in a foreign land, but she heard from An Ran that going to Jiangnan would take a few days, so she might as well go and have a look, what if she is doing well in Jiangnan?Even if there was any emergency, An Ran said that she would send her back to her hometown.

Mrs. Zhang really didn't want to be a lonely ghost in a foreign land, but after hearing what An Ran said, she was still tempted, and came here with An Ran.

Since this young man has promised that if he dies unfortunately, the other party will send him back, so let's go, as he said, it is better to die than to live.

An Ran heard Mrs. Zhang's words, and said, "Don't worry about this. When we find a place to stay, we can take our time looking for it."

When mentioning the place to stay, the old lady couldn't help worrying about An Ran again, she said: "Boy, there are so many of us, if we say more or less, where is there a place that can house so many of us?"

"Old lady, don't worry, since I brought you here, you will be settled properly." An Ran smiled.

Since she had thought about developing here in Yunyang, she was naturally prepared, and she didn't think that this group of old, weak, sick and disabled people were useless people.

First of all, if there is an elder in the family, such as a treasure, these elders have rich experience, and they have things that they don't know much about in this time and space, so they can sometimes ask them for advice.

Secondly, she wants to develop in the future and wants to get people to help with something. The old, weak, sick and disabled can also help. Not to mention anything else, she can always help herself a little with needlework and housekeeping.

Except for those who are completely disabled, she doesn't think those who can still do things are useless, and those who have completely lost their ability to work have not come with her before—for poor people like them, people who have completely lost their ability to work , most likely because they really can’t do anything, including long-distance travel, so when An Ran said to go, they naturally didn’t follow, so those who can follow An Ran, although they are old, weak, sick and disabled, they can’t do anything before they arrive. Degree.

She can't get any people for the time being, and it's good to have such a group of people following her.

At that moment, Mrs. Zhang heard An Ran say that there was a place to house them. She believed in An Ran's ability to do things, so she immediately felt relieved.

At that moment, An Ran brought this group of old, weak, sick and disabled to a Yizhuang in the suburbs of Yunyang Prefecture.

"Everyone, let's settle down here first. The nearby villagers, seeing the bandit army on the other side, were afraid and fled. Now the rest of the village are the same people as you. I saw that this place was empty before, so I just I paid some rent and rented it with them for a year, so this is my place for the time being, you can live in peace of mind."

It’s no wonder that the villagers agreed to rent out the Yizhuang. In these years, when wars are raging and the world is chaotic, everything is expensive. That’s when money is most needed. Therefore, the remaining elderly people in the village saw that someone was willing to rent the Yizhuang. Naturally, I rented it out, thinking that I could get a little money.

Immediately An Ran settled the crowd, and set off with a dozen people.

The dozen or so people that An Ran brought were weak, sick and disabled in this team. There was no other way. The old people left in the team were usually real old people. It might be okay to mend at home, but it would be impossible to take them out. , and not all weak, sick and disabled people can be taken out. Some people are indeed physically weak, and it is impossible to take them with them to do things.

Among the dozen or so people who could be brought out, some were patients who were cured by An Ran—in the previous village, An Ran not only cut firewood for Mrs. Zhang, hunted and carried water, but also treated those sick people in the village. This time and space is the same as many herbs in the previous time and space, so her medical knowledge is useful.

And because her medical skills are far better than those of the doctors nearby, through the two-pronged approach of acupuncture and medicine, after more than ten days of treatment, except for some difficult diseases, people with common diseases have recovered.

Because they cured their illnesses, these people were very convinced of her, so they added a few more labors to her at the moment.
