There is no shortage of food on the way to escape famine, and Miss Luck is busy farming

No matter which dynasty it is in, the capital is the most unattainable place in people's dreams.

If they can go to the capital and settle in the capital or Zhongzhou, it will naturally be of great help to ordinary people like them and their descendants.

Thinking of her fourth uncle who was about to take the scholar examination, and her younger brothers who had no choice but to study as an examiner or learn a trade in the future, she naturally wanted to go to the capital so that everyone could have more opportunities to get ahead.

Thinking of this, Qiao Ran raised her head and said firmly:

"Grandpa, the village chief and several clan elders, I agree with Mr. Mo's proposal. Anyway, we have all fled our hometowns to escape famine, and we can't go back. Why not find a place that is most suitable for everyone to live, so that we and our descendants can Everyone can have a better living environment. I want to go to Zhongzhou and go near the capital, so that my fourth uncle and my brothers can have better development conditions in the future."

The old village chief and the clan elders looked at each other. Ran Yatou was indeed very far-sighted!

This vision and courage put these hesitant old guys to shame.

"Okay! Then let's go to the capital as Ran Yatou said! There should be a better way to survive under the emperor's feet."

The old village chief and the clan elders discussed it and decisively agreed to the suggestion of going to the capital.

The old village chief immediately summoned the whole village, young and old, and everyone formed a circle. A dozen men stood guard on the outside and did not allow other refugees to approach.

The old village chief relayed Mr. Mo's words to everyone and the decision they just made.

Sure enough, before he finished speaking, there was a commotion in the crowd.

Many people couldn't accept that they had to divert to other places. Seeing that they were not far from their destination, Linzhou City, they could grit their teeth and hold on even if there was no food.

But now it's said that Linzhou can't stay anymore, so wouldn't their persistence along the way be in vain?

Although there is no shortage of water now, there is no food, people are hungry, and they have to cross two or three state capitals. Who can bear this?

"No matter! I'm not leaving! I'm going to Linzhou City! Catching young men may not necessarily capture me! Besides, even if I'm captured as a miner, with food and shelter, it's better than starving to death without food. Strong on the road!”

"Even so, I won't leave! I just said that Linzhou City will catch strong men. Maybe they will look down on us refugees who are so hungry and skinny? We won't go to Fucheng. We will find a small county to settle down near and make some money. Just ask the county magistrate to help us settle in."

"You're right, I won't leave either! Whoever wants to leave can leave!"

"I'm not leaving either!"

……

The voices coming and going were saying that they were unwilling to continue walking and just wanted to find a place to settle down in Linzhou.

Qiao Ran sneered in her heart after listening to these people's words.

If all the governors of a state are bad, can they escape the fate of exorbitant taxes and arresting young men by hiding in remote counties?

Still hungry and skinny? Since I came here, I have taken everyone to find a lot of food, and I have not been hungry along the way.

Compared with the refugees I saw along the way who were really too hungry to walk, everyone in their group had straight backs, rosy complexions, and walked steadily, and no one was left behind.

That's it, if Linzhou Prefecture is really looking for young men everywhere, this large group of refugees who still have some strength and have no one to care about them before they settle down are undoubtedly the best choice.

No matter what these people planned, she had already discussed it with her grandma, and she would definitely take her family to the capital.

The fourth uncle studied so diligently that he got the position of head clerk in both the county examination and the government examination. He was only missing the last level of the college examination. If he could pass it, he would be a scholar who would not kneel before the official position.

If you can get the first case in the hospital examination, it will be a rare three-year-old in ten years. Xiao Sanyuan can not only become a local student and receive monthly grain distribution from the government, but also receive special attention from the local government because of his great potential to pass the examination.

After all, if you can pass the examination, you can go to Beijing to take part in the spring examination in the second year of the provincial examination.

Then there is the possibility of taking part in the palace examination and becoming a Jinshi or even the second best in the top pick. Then you can directly be promoted to an official position, shine on your family, and make the local government feel proud.

Although Qiao Ran doesn't think there is anything good about being an official, she is confident that she can lead her family to work hard and live a prosperous life with no worries about food and clothing.

But she can also understand that for scholars like Fourth Uncle, obtaining fame is their greatest ideal.

Some of the little ones in the family also followed the example of their fourth uncle and wanted to study and gain fame.

Naturally, she couldn't restrict them just because she had different ideas.

Since they want examiners, of course they have to create better conditions for them.

These people in the village are short-sighted. They only think about not wanting to continue to endure hardship now, but they don't think about how to live their lives in the future.

She couldn't agree with it, but it wasn't easy for her to interfere.

The news has been informed to them, and the powerful relationship has been clearly analyzed. What path they want to choose is their business.

The old village chief also frowned and listened to the buzzing discussion of these people.

He thought that there would be people who insisted on going to Linzhou Fucheng, but he didn't expect that there would be so many.

He didn't say anything. After a while, after everyone's discussion subsided, the old village chief looked around at those who were making the most noise.

When those people were stared at, they lowered their heads or looked away, not daring to look at him.

The old village chief then said quietly: "You have all forgotten who suggested that we leave from the gate of Yunzhou City and rush to the next state capital as soon as possible? It was Ran Yatou! We listened to her suggestion, and now you Do you have any regrets? If we hadn't left a few days earlier, the people we see on the road now who are dying of hunger or even starving to death on the roadside are you people!"

"Think about the consequences if you didn't listen to Ran Yatou's suggestion. Now Ran Yatou says that you can't go to Linzhou City. If you don't listen and insist on going, you can bear the consequences yourself! Anyway, my family will definitely follow Ran Yatou to another state capital."

As soon as the old village chief finished speaking, someone in the crowd immediately responded: "My family will follow Ran Yatou!"

"My family is the same. Wherever Ran Ran says she goes, my family will follow her! No matter whether she goes or stays, my family will follow the Qiao family."

"My family too!"

……

Qiao Ran looked around and saw that the people who had expressed their intention to follow her were all the people she had injured and given food to.

Especially Qian Shitou's family, Widow Zhao, Xiao Niuzai and his wife, they raised their hands almost as soon as the old village chief finished speaking.

They were grateful for Qiao Ran's rescue and help, so they supported all Qiao Ran's decisions unconditionally.
