Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 416 Resettlement of Refugees and Prevention of Robbers

Some people suggested finding an open space to build a shed, while others suggested that every household of the townspeople take them in.

Shen Yuan felt that neither of these two methods would work. It would take time and effort to build a shed, and it would be difficult to manage it if the townspeople took it in.

"Sister Yu'an, felt bag~~" Bai Yixue reminded from the side.

"Yes, go to Lishui Village and Jimu Village to borrow felt bags." Shen Yuan nodded, and told the situation to County Magistrate Sun, who was immediately overjoyed.

What if you can borrow felt bags? It saves time, labor and money.

The refugees had no place to live and did not dare to delay. On the third day, under the help of the village chief Akun, two hundred felt bags were transported to Wantianju.

County magistrate Sun organized a large group of people to find a lawn in a flat place outside the city and set up the blanket.

In order to facilitate the return, the village head of Hakun marked each felt bag with a number plate, which is more convenient for management. Each family has one felt bag, and the number of people, names and ages are all registered in the register.

Nearly [-] refugees settled down soon. Neat rows of white yurts stood there, which looked spectacular from a distance, and made people wonder if they had come to the western prairie.

County magistrate Sun looked at all this and nodded with great satisfaction.

"Miss Shen has helped the refugees a lot, and there are more than 100 felt bags left as spares, which can be used to resettle the refugees."

"Not bad, isn't it?" Shen Yu'an smiled triumphantly, "A distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor, and it's the same for both countries. It's better to help each other than to plunder each other~~
"Shen girl's words are very reasonable, but it's a pity that Luozhou City is so chaotic, alas~"

"By the way, the robbers from Luozhou City won't come to our Yuantian County, will they?" Master Li interjected.

Wantian County belongs to Lingzhou and borders Luozhou, so it is not impossible for the robbers who were rampant in Luozhou to flee to Wantian County.

"This matter must be taken seriously." County magistrate Sun said, "First organize the officers and soldiers in the county government and place them in Huilong Village on the border with Luozhou, focusing on defense."
Master Li looked worried: "There are only less than two hundred officers and soldiers in the yamen, and they cannot all be dispatched there. It is said that the group of robbers has increased to thousands in the past few days. If they want to go to Wantian County Come here, I’m afraid I can’t stop it.”

Shen Yuan listened to the side for a while, thinking that the disaster victims here have put so much thought into resettlement, if once the turmoil in Luozhou City spreads here, all the previous efforts will be in vain, if you want to keep the peace, unless~ ~~
"Don't worry, magistrate, I may have a solution." Shen Yuan said, "I am familiar with the Southwest Guard General, if you can ask him to borrow some soldiers to defend, then it will be fine."

County Magistrate Sun was overjoyed, "This~~Shen girl, the people of Wantian County are really lucky to have you~~"

"Damn, the magistrate is too serious, it's just what you can do." Shen Yuan said with a smile: "But how many soldiers are needed to defend? I just want to mention it in the letter."

County magistrate Sun thought for a while, "Four to five hundred people, we can't just sit still, we have to organize a militia team of five to six hundred to patrol and defend together."

Shen Yuan nodded, "Okay, then I'll write a letter when I get back."

As soon as he returned to Fengming Restaurant, Shen Xingwang smiled and handed her a letter, "When will Brother Ji Xun come back?" They didn't know Ji Xun's identity yet, and Shen Yuan didn't say anything, for fear that everyone would be cautious if they knew Ji Xun's identity.

"Soon." Shen Yuan took the letter with joy, and ran to the reception room on the second floor to read it.

Ji Xun has not received the letter that Shen Yuan sent to Ji Xun a few days ago, and now the letter is not only expressing lovesickness, but also lovesickness. On the back of the letter is a picture of a couple holding hands, one named A Xun and the other named Yu An.

"This guy is old and outrageous." Shen Yuan blushed after seeing it.

After reading the letter and counting the time, Zhang Neng should be able to arrive in a few days, so as not to encounter robbers on the way.

But that guy has kung fu, and he doesn't bring any valuables with him, so he shouldn't be afraid of encountering robbers.

Holding the letter in the reception room on the second floor for a while, Shen Yuan wrote a letter to the Southwest Army Camp, and after finishing writing, asked Bai Yixue to send the letter, and then went downstairs.

Seeing the two aunts making spicy cabbage, they approached with a smile: "No, no, I want to come over to have a chat, and I want to come over to help, hee hee~~" While talking, she leaned on the two aunts like kittens rub.

"This girl~~ don't dirty your clothes." Aunt Bai shot her a look and moved to the side.

Aunt Zhou also smiled and said, "Don't be too busy to help and get your hands dirty, it's not like you're too busy."

Shen Yuan squatted between the two of them, and after chatting for a while, he asked, "How much spicy cabbage do you make a day now? I saw that Brother Xingwang didn't seem to buy much Chinese cabbage yesterday."

"Chinese cabbage is becoming more and more difficult to buy, and no one is willing to grow it." Mrs. Zhou said: "It can't be used as a staple food. The vegetable farmers in the county said that they don't plan to grow it this month. They will all grow winter wheat. In the future I'm afraid this appetizer in the restaurant has to be removed."

Aunt Bai answered, "The guests love it so much, it would be a pity not to do it."

"Yeah, but I can't buy raw materials, so there's nothing I can do about it."

"You can buy it." Shen Yuan said with a chuckle, "The village chief Hakun and the others in Lishui Village have already planted a large number of them, and the price is cheaper than that in the Central Plains."

"Really?" Aunt Zhou and Aunt Bai were very pleasantly surprised. Aunt Zhou said, "I was worried that the loss of spicy cabbage would affect the business, so I can rest assured."

"Don't worry, this side dish of spicy cabbage will never be broken." After chatting here for a while, Shen Yuan went to Nishang Pavilion to play.

As soon as I entered the store, I found that everyone was idle, so I was surprised.

The sister-in-law explained: "There are robbers in Luozhou City, and everyone is afraid to go out of the city, which affects the business of the store."

The second sister-in-law nodded: "Isn't it? No one came to pick up the clothes that the ladies in Luozhou City ordered before."

The third sister-in-law was holding her pregnant belly, and there were many freckles on her white and tender face, she said worriedly, "I don't know when it will stop, it's making people panic."

"It should be soon." Shen Yu'an giggled.

As long as Ji Xun receives her letter, he should negotiate with the King of the Western Regions as soon as possible. As long as the treasury of the Western Regions releases food, the robbers will naturally disappear.

"The sisters-in-law should take it as a holiday. By the way, business is not busy anyway, so they should take turns to take a holiday instead of staying here together." He added with a smile, "Elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, take this opportunity to hurry up and make a baby. Try to have three babies next year."
The sister-in-law smiled heartily: "Why three? Miss Shen doesn't count herself? Four, haha~~"

Shen Yu'an's face turned red. She hasn't written her horoscope yet. Ah Xun said that they were "difficult"~~~ But she believed that Ah Xun would be able to overcome the difficulties and stay with her.

Concerned about refining the scar cream, Shen Yu'an and Bai Yixue didn't stay in the county any longer, and returned to Shenjia Village the next day.
