Before I went into exile, I was rich as hell.

Chapter 67 Entering the Northwest

Chapter 67 Entering the Northwest
Su Yan was able to follow, she was already happy, and finally could be with Big Brother Murong.

Su Yue walked on Murongli's left hand side, and Su Yan walked on Murongli's right hand side, sneaking glances at him from time to time, the indelible admiration in those eyes almost overwhelmed him.

It's a pity that Murongli didn't notice the wood, and smiled as he followed Su Yue's gaze.

The group turned around a street, and Su Yue bought some vegetable seeds, grain seeds, dozens of water bags, and large wooden buckets for water, the kind that can hold two to three hundred catties of water.

Entering the Northwest, not only food, but also water are indispensable.

Su Yue even bought a lot of grain seeds. They will all be farming in the future. How can they grow without seeds?
The grain seeds here are actually the freshly harvested grains that the farmers sell. They pay taxes on part of the grain they harvest, and keep the grain seeds for the next year, and the rest are eaten by themselves, and the rest are sold.

The money from the sale is used to buy supplies for the winter or exchange for cheaper food.

What Su Yue bought was what they sold.

In addition, Caixia bought some household items for girls, while Su Yan only bought some hair flowers for little girls.

As for Su Yue, there are many things for girls in the space, so she doesn't need to buy them.

When the shop was about to close, everyone went back happily.

It was peaceful all night, and early the next morning, the team set off to the northwest.

Everyone has food and a carriage, and the schedule is faster.

Five days later, the team began to slowly approach the northwest edge, and the scene here gradually began to fade.

Although the weather is not so hot and it is beginning to turn into autumn, the weather here is still dry and hot, and it is difficult to see rivers with water.

The trees on the mountain are all withered and lifeless.

Seeing this situation, some people feel very sad. They have not entered the northwest region. This is the case. If they really want to go to the northwest region, what will it be like?
Many people began to waver. They knew that this exile team had actually escaped control, so they wanted to find another way out.

Moreover, on the road at this time, one after another, fleeing people dragged their families and walked towards the capital.

They were sallow and bony, more exiles than exiles they were.

Seeing this situation, several households found Leader Zhang, but they were unwilling to leave.

Leader Zhang had no choice but to ask Su Yong and Murongli for instructions, and they immediately agreed, it's fine if those families don't want to follow.

It's just that those few households are not considered to reach the destination, and the household registration issue can only be solved by themselves.

Thinking of those few families who are not short of money, they have the idea of ​​leaving the team. After all, as long as they have money, they can find a way.

Besides, in this place in the northwest, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Who will control those few insignificant exiles.

But Qin Lingtou and Zhang Lingtou, after completely relying on Murongli and Su Yue, wished to throw away those hot potatoes.

In the end, only the Su family, the Yun family, and the Xie imperial physician's family were left, along with dozens of servants, adding up to a small hundred or so people.

After another three days, we have almost entered the Northwest region. We only saw the endless desert, a few scattered old trees on the desert, and a few scattered leaves on the trees fluttering in the wind, which seemed so vicissitudes of life.

Everyone saw this scene, and their hearts were cold to the bottom.

At this time, a large number of refugees can be seen.

When the few refugees saw such a large team and guards with knives, no one dared to come forward.

On the afternoon of the same day, when they entered the Northwest region for tens of miles, the team prepared to camp and cook.

Unexpectedly, before they started to light a fire and cook, a group of fleeing teams rushed forward and surrounded their team.

Qin Lingtou and Zhang Lingtou waved their hands, and led the guards to draw out their knives and rush to the leader of the fleeing team.

Leader Qin shouted sharply: "You are so courageous, you dare to intercept the government's servants."

The leader of the fleeing team was an old man in his 60s. He squinted his eyes at the people in the team. Seeing that they were all full of energy, there were so many carriages, and there were guards escorting them, he wondered where the officials must come from.

Seeing the wheels of the carriage sinking deep into the ground, his eyes were already full of greed, he said without fear at all: "We are almost starving to death, it doesn't matter if you are an official or not, if you don't send the food today Stay, and just walk over the corpses of us."

They still didn't dare to fight with the officials, so they played tricks on them, threatened them with death, and surrounded them to prevent them from leaving.

Some of these fleeing people have not had a drop of water or food for two or three days. If they don’t eat, they will starve to death tonight.

They don't want anything but food, and as long as they have food, their two hundred or so people can survive.

"Officer, please give us some food, the little lady's baby is almost starving to death."

Suddenly, a woman with a child ran out from the team, rushed to leader Qin, and kowtowed.

The woman was disheveled, and her clothes were ragged. The child in her arms was probably two or three years old. He was as hungry as a big-headed doll, dying in the woman's arms.

Qin Lingtou and Zhang Lingtou were not moved when they saw this. They often encountered such things.

"Yue girl, let's go over and have a look." The old Hou Ye who was sitting on the ground called out to Su Yue.

Su Yong has seen everything in her eyes, and she is now thinking about how to help these refugees.

Hearing the shout, she nodded, helped up the old lady, and Uncle Su also helped up the old lady to follow.

The three Su Qiwen brothers had already passed by, standing behind Leader Qin, looking at the refugees solemnly.

General Yun also supported Mrs. Yun to watch.

Only Imperial Physician Xie's family remained unmoved. These things were not something a young imperial physician like him could handle.

Murong Li came over and followed Su Yue, walking towards the woman.

Su Yue is wearing a blue cloth dress, although the fabric is average, but she is fair and beautiful, she doesn't look like a child from a poor family, she looks like a daughter of some family.

And Murong Li is even more extraordinary in temperament, unparalleled in handsomeness.

When the refugees saw the two of them, their eyes straightened. Where did these immortals come from? How could they be so beautiful.

And those two couples looked like noble people with extraordinary status.

The woman saw that it was useless to beg Qin to be the leader, she looked up and saw Su Yue, she hugged the child and rushed in front of her, holding the child in one hand, and kowtowing while grabbing the hem of her skirt with the other.

"Miss, I beg you, little woman, please give us something to eat, if there is no food, the little woman's child will starve to death, please..."

The woman kowtowed while crying.

Su Yue mentally swept around, and all the people in the fleeing team were pale, thin, and haggard. They dragged their tired bodies and looked at them numbly. Some of them could not even stand firmly, and could be blown down by a gust of wind.
