Chapter 47

Everyone nodded. They could all recognize their own food bags. At this time, protecting the food was the top priority.

"The men walking outside are all armed with weapons that they can attack at home, such as hoes and kitchen knives, which can deter the refugees they meet." Zhou Jiacheng said again.

The villagers feel that Zhou Jiacheng's thinking is really comprehensive and the arrangements are reasonable, and those who were dissatisfied before gradually dissipated some emotions.

"There is no one in the county now. Let's go in and have a look, look for supplies, and see what can be used." After Zhou Jiacheng finished speaking, he asked them to stand in the formation just mentioned, and took them to Lianshan County. .

Zhou Yue saw that her father arranged everything in a logical manner, and thought it was very good, but she didn't expect his father to be quite capable of management.

After entering the city gate, everyone saw the messy streets and empty shops, and felt clearly that the road ahead was bumpy.This is just caused by the refugees. If it were a Beiling person, it would be so terrible.

"Okay, the female relatives stay behind, and the men go to search for things, see what can be used, and bring them here." Zhou Jiacheng issued a task to everyone. If they don't take away the things here, it will be cheaper for the later Beiling people. .

So the female family members sat down to rest around the grain cart, and the men dispersed to find things.

Zhou Yue also went to search for things. The first thing she entered was a shop with a closed door. Such shops were rarely visited by refugees.

She first chose a cloth shop closest to her, and the door of the store was closed tightly. She inserted a knife into the crack of the door and pinned the bolt, opened the door and walked in.

There are still a lot of cloth on the shelf, but they are all cheap cloth. The boss probably took all the good cloth away. They couldn’t fit, so they stayed. Zhou Yue put the cloth into a part of the space and kept it. Some outside, and then walked to the backyard.

She found the warehouse of the cloth shop in the backyard, and there were some coarse cloths left, so she put them all into the space.

Carrying the cloth out of the cloth shop, she put the cloth in the resting place of the female relatives, and then walked to the jewelry shop.

Opening the door in the same way, Zhou Yue inspected the shelves, all the precious jewelry was gone, there were some silk flowers, earrings, hairpins and other jewelry left, Zhou Yue collected some of the good ones, and then went out , These things are useless, so she didn't take them outside.

Entering the blacksmith shop, there are a lot of things here, because the things are heavy and not for food, so no one has come here.Zhou Yue found some arrows and put them into the space, and some knives, and went back to distribute some to the men in the village later.

This is a weapon. The road to escape from the wilderness is not peaceful. It will be safer to have a weapon in hand.

Collecting some bits and pieces, Zhou Yue went to the carpenter's shop again, but this place has not been visited before. People fleeing famine are only interested in food and money, and other things are cumbersome to them.

I saw some wooden wheels leaning against the corner of the wall, probably to be used for ox carts and horse carts, but the animals here must have been taken away, there are no animals to pull the carts.

Suddenly Zhou Yue thought of a small cart. The wheels here can be made into several small carts. People in the village are tired from carrying luggage, so they can be pushed on the cart. Children can also be pushed, so that adults don’t have to hold them .

Thinking of this, Zhou Yue immediately went back to the place where the villagers gathered, "Who knows how to do carpentry?" She asked.

The man in the village came back partially and looked at Zhou Yue, not understanding what she meant. "I thought of a small cart. There are some wheels in the carpenter's shop. You can make a small cart. You can put your luggage on the cart." , it saves effort and children can push it." Zhou Yue explained.

Hearing that it saves effort, everyone's eyes lit up. They were too tired from walking in the past two days, and their luggage was relatively heavy.

"I will!" An old man in the village said, "I will too, Yueyue, have you forgotten that I work in a carpentry shop?" Qian Changyuan said at this time.

"Yeah, I forgot about you, cousin!" Zhou Yue patted his head, "You two come with me, and I'll tell you how to do it!"

Zhou Yue took them back to the carpenter's shop, then drew a cart on paper and explained the style of the cart to them. Because the structure was simple, both of them knew how to make it, so they started making it. I also hired a few helpers to saw the wood.

There are many people and strong strength, and the first small cart was made quickly. Zhou Yue pushed it with his hands, and it felt okay. Now they can relax a little bit!

The other men who were looking for supplies all came back, but not everyone was there. The village chief asked: "Is there anyone who hasn't come back? What time has it been? Where have they gone?"

"They were called by the little girl of the Zhou family, saying that they were going to the carpenter's shop to make things." Aunt Liu said.

"Making something? What to do? I'll go take a look!" The village chief felt that Zhou Yue's girl was not willful, she was very capable, and she should be making useful things.

As soon as I entered the carpenter's shop, I heard the sound of sawing wood. Several men from the village were sawing wood.Zhou Yue watched Qian Changyuan carving wood from the side, so he walked towards her.

"Girl, what are you doing?" The sound of sawing wood was so loud that Li Dashan had to raise his voice.

Zhou Yue saw him coming, so she took him to see the finished cart, "Village Chief, this is a small cart, you can put your luggage on it, and push it around. Sit in the car."

The village chief heard it, then looked at the small cart, and tried to push it himself. This really saves effort. "Yes, with this cart, our team can move faster!"

Li Dashan nodded to Zhou Yue, "Your child is really smart!" Every time at this time, he was thinking, why is such a smart child not from his own family?Another day of envy for the Zhou family!

The wheels in the carpenter's shop were only enough to make five trolleys. After the five trolleys were finished, it was getting dark. When the villagers saw the trolleys, they were very happy. At least they didn't have to carry luggage or children. Got it!

"Now there are small carts, everyone puts luggage and supplies on the carts, and children can also sit on them. Starting tomorrow, men will take turns pushing the carts, and each person will push for an hour. Hurry up." Zhou Jiacheng arranged everyone's luggage and people pushing carts.

Of course the villagers obeyed, which was a good thing for them, and this cart was created by Zhou Jiacheng's daughter, so they got rich.

"Tonight we will stay one night near an inn in the county. You can eat by yourself. After dinner, you can choose a nearby house to stay." Zhou Jiacheng announced that he would sleep in an inn tonight. They were in the county town and there were many houses occupied.

Everyone nodded, they can sleep in the house tonight!
