Xu Yihuan ran down the city wall, her body already shivering and trembling.

Exposing a large area of ​​body parts in the cold winter is really cold.

Rubber Devil Fruit has both advantages and disadvantages, Xu Yihuan commented in her heart.

As soon as I came downstairs, I saw Ye Shang, who was preparing to hurt him, and he was holding a hand warmer bag filled with sheep intestines.

Xu Yihuan looked at it as if she had seen it, and couldn't wait to reach out and grab his hot water bottle.

"Ah, it's comfortable, it's comfortable," he said, his hands and feet still jumping and trembling, and his body spinning in circles.

Ye Shang couldn't help but smile.

Magistrate Liu was slow for a moment, followed Xu Yihuan, took a cloak and handed it to Ye Shang.

Yeshang took it and stepped forward to tie Xu Yihuan's cloak. Only then did Xu Yihuan feel a lot better.

"How's it going? Is there anything else?"

Yeshang stepped forward and said with a smile: "I have sent someone to write a letter. The army from the border town will be dispatched soon. You don't have to worry about conscription in the future."

Xu Yihuan was overjoyed when she heard this: "That's great."

Yeshang continued: "I also issued the decree in the capital city in the border town."

When Xu Yihuan heard this, she became even more happy. She trembled and poked her hand, staring at Yeshang in embarrassment.

"The method of encircling the city from the countryside is good, but it also requires the willingness of the people. Please tell me how you manage the border towns."

Magistrate Liu smiled lightly at the side. Seeing the good relationship between the two of them, he felt happy and couldn't help but think of the one in the flower house.

"Reporting to Lieutenant Xu, they lost a lot of baggage." There were smiles on the city wall, and the soldiers who came down in a hurry looked excited.

Hearing this, Xu Yihuan jumped onto the city wall again.

The Blue City Army lost a lot of torches and straw. Xu Yihuan was overjoyed at this. He waved his hand and said: "Prepare manpower. When they retreat further, we will pick up the baggage."

These things are a burden to the Blue City Army, but not to Gyeonggi. The straw can be used as fuel after the moisture is dried, and torches can also be used.

Xu Yihuan now lacks everything except reusing the garbage.

"Yes"

Yeshang and Magistrate Liu couldn't help laughing when they saw Xu Yihuan so happy.

The two of them unanimously saw the future through Xu Yihuan - freedom.

Magistrate Liu was deeply moved. In recent years, most of Xiaocheng's trade deals were with the nobles and royal families, and very few goods were offered to the common people.

In the early years, he noticed something was wrong. Every year, a large number of civilians died of hunger and cold.

The gentry and the royal family only changed the family structure of the common people into a joint production system. The small peasant economy that was originally based on the family was successfully divided into a group labor force with men as the labor force, while women became the entertainment and reproductive tools of the gentry. and workers in light industries that produce fabrics, etc.

This is completely contrary to Magistrate Liu's original intention, which is why he was willing to negotiate with His Majesty to use Xiaocheng as an independent business city for the entire Jin State.

He wanted to give the people a way to survive, but even with this wish, Xiaocheng was still divided according to caste.

Magistrate Liu couldn't figure out why he had to sacrifice so much money by mistake, but now he looked at Xu Yihuan and knew that he had made the right bet.

Xu Yihuan was watching the situation of the Blue City Army on the city wall. The defenders were so excited that they rushed out of the city gate with two groups of soldiers. They quickly picked up the Blue City Army's baggage and moved it into the city.

Although it was winter and they had to go out to work, the soldiers had smiles on their faces and they didn't feel tired at all. Seeing the baggage and straw, everyone felt warm in their hearts.

After picking up the baggage, Xu Yihuan took the lead and ordered people to bring the straw back, and asked the refugees to melt the ice off the straw and put part of it to dry. It can be used as firewood for cooking and for heating.

The soldiers and inevitably did not dislike these things as being left behind by the Blue City Army.

In just a few days in the entire Gyeonggi Province, most people's faces were filled with happy smiles.

They have been waiting for this kind of hopeful day for more than ten years, and finally it has arrived.

Although Xu Yihuan only gave them a bowl of gruel, everyone felt warm after drinking it.

On the fourth day, people from the refugee camp finally sent someone to ask: "When will Captain Xu allocate fields to them?"

When Xu Yihuan heard this from the battalion commander, he knew that the refugees no longer regarded them as heinous officers and soldiers like the previous dynasty.

She slapped her thigh and led her staff and Magistrate Liu into the refugee camp.

Different from the attitude the first time I came here, today the refugee camp presented their best venue and put on their best attitude.

It was a clean and tidy table and a draft-free and warm room. The people in the refugee camp imitated Xu Yihuan and built a kang. The heat was generated and the room was warm.

Xu Yihuan was very satisfied as soon as she entered the door. When she saw the people in the room, she couldn't help but be surprised: "Are you the leader of the refugee camp?"

The man looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, with piercing eyes and a calm and natural expression. He was dressed in coarse linen clothes, but he had a detachment and confidence beyond that of a child of this age.

As soon as he saw Xu Yihuan, his eyes softened a lot and he said: "I have been neglectful a lot in the past two days, please don't mind Captain Xu."

Xu Yihuan paused after hearing this, grinned and said: "No problem, the leader is the one who cares about the world. When managing so many refugees, you should be cautious."

When the man heard this, his expression became much happier.

"Captain Xu, everyone, please." The man cupped his hands and raised his hands.

Xu Yihuan, Magistrate Liu and his party were not polite and walked over to sit down on the chairs next to the Eight Immortals table. Soon people from the refugee camp came to serve them tea.

It was not a good cup of tea, but Xu Yihuan immediately felt that the leader of the refugee camp valued this meeting.

"Has the leader thought clearly?"

"Your Excellency, Xu Yihuan, this is the King of Jin and Magistrate Liu of Xiaocheng County, and that is a staff member." Xu Yihuan then remembered that she had never asked this staff member's name.

He raised his hand and said, "My lord, Tao Changgui was once a staff member of Taifu Xu's house."

When the people in the refugee camp heard this, they immediately became cautious.

Xu Yihuan stood up hurriedly and raised his hand to ask them to calm down. Tao Changgui continued: "Now Captain Xu is taking charge of the logistics."

When the people in the refugee camp heard this, their expressions softened, and their eyes lingered on Xu Yihuan's face for a few moments. After confirming that he was correct, the leader of the refugee camp slowly sat down.

"I don't have a name. I have been in charge of the refugee camp since I was ten years old. They just call me leader." The man's face quickly returned to calm.

Xu Yihuan looked surprised, this is a genius.

No one taught me, no one raised me, I trained myself to beat others, and managed so many people.

Xu Yihuan guessed right. The man's learning ability was first-rate. He had never drank tea. But when he saw Xu Yihuan and others drinking tea just now, he picked up the tea cup very casually.

Only the leader himself knows all this.

Xu Yihuan said: "Tao Changgui is one of ours now, and I hope the leader doesn't mind. We are here to talk to you about the resettlement of refugees. I hope that in the future these refugees will not be called refugees, but... common people"

When the leader heard this, his eyes instantly became hot.
