Wei and Jin Cooks

   Chapter 81

  Zhao Ming packed out five boxes of things, including plain fabrics, newly made quilts, a box of silk wool, and some china cups and the like.

   Of course, there is also a box of money, and each box has some money in it. Considering his father's generosity and chatter, he also put two pieces of silver pie in it, which is simply extremely rich.

Zhao Hanzhang was so moved by this gift that she almost let out her mind and wanted to stay for a few more days, but considering that the group of people brought by Ji Yuan had not yet been arranged, she was still waiting in Xianyang, so she pressed the urge, With a moved face, she said that she would often go home to see it in the future.

  In addition to Zhao Song, other families also sent gifts.

  Because they knew that Zhao Hanzhang and the others had lost their luggage on the way, they were short of everything except money, so they had everything to give away.

He has a good relationship with Zhao Changyu, or thinks of Zhao Changyu's goodness, and he is very generous. Even though Zhao Hu scolded and disliked Zhao Hanzhang who once offended him, he still sent two boxes of things together. pen money.

   He also generously gave Zhao Hanzhang a few servants.

   Zhao Hanzhang saw the servants tied with ropes and tied their hands in a string, and his forehead jumped slightly, "Seventh Uncle, where did these people come from?"

   "I bought it with money. It's still useful. I've checked it out, and my health is good. You have lost so many servants before. What about the people who didn't serve you? These people are all for you."

   Zhao Hanzhang's eyes fell on the ropes that tied them, and the meaning was self-evident.

Zhao Hu felt that she had too many problems, and said indifferently: "I just bought it, and I'm not very obedient, but it will be fine after a few days of training. Will you train the servants? How about I send you a steward to train you? "

Zhao Hanzhang refused the steward, and after a little thought, he accepted all these people, and said, "Seventh Uncle, how can it be enough to send these people? The summer harvest is imminent, there is a shortage of people in the field. Send it to me with your family."

   Zhao Hu turned his head and asked his long attendant, "Do they still have family?"

There really is. Although Zhao Hu just gave a random order to pick a few subordinates who are not very obedient and give them to Zhao Hanzhang, but the subordinates did not dare to really choose only the subordinates who were not obedient, and they also attached many conditions. For example, if they are disobedient, they have family members in their hands.

   Everyone knows that Zhao Hu and Zhao Hanzhang have a bad relationship. At this time, who knows what his purpose is?

   If he thinks about this in the future, he will use these people, and they will be able to make a coincidence, and maybe they will get a reward.

   Therefore, these people who have grown up and picked, all have family members, and there are many family members.

  Changsui didn't dare to deceive, he lowered his head and said, "Yes, there are still some family members."

   Zhao Hu didn't know what was going on. Seeing that Zhao Hanzhang wanted someone from him, he felt that he was being begged and was quite proud, so he waved his hand generously and said, "Okay, bring their family and give it to my grandniece."

  Long Sui:  …

   Zhao Hanzhang first smiled at Zhao Hu, "Thank you Seventh Uncle," and then looked at Chang Sui with a smile but not a smile: "Remember, it's all their relatives."

  The leader followed, and then brought a group of people. Most of them had empty hands, and only a few were carrying a small bag.

   is very shabby, but... I can't stand the crowd of them.

   Zhao Hu opened his mouth wide in surprise.

   He originally picked out no more than no less than eight people, four men and four women. As a result, they had as many as twenty-one relatives.

   Zhao Hu:  …

   Zhao Hanzhang has already smiled and thanked, "Thank you, Seventh Uncle."

   Zhao Hu slapped his face, pulled out a smile and said, "No need."

   He turned around and was about to leave, Zhao Hanzhang shouted from behind, "Seventh Uncle, remember to supply me with their deeds."

   Zhao Hu quickened his pace.

   Zhao Hanzhang waited for him to leave, then looked at the twenty-nine people who had brought them, and let them untangle the ropes and asked, "How did you come to Zhao's Wubao?"

   Several people looked at each other, a thin young man said solemnly: "We were caught and sold by soldiers."

   "How much were you sold for?"

  Youth: "I was younger and stronger, and was sold for three bucks."

   is cheaper than a cow.

   Zhao Hanzhang rubbed his forehead and asked, "Is the whole family arrested?"

   "Last year there was a drought in Yingchuan, but this year it still doesn't rain much. We couldn't survive anymore, so we wanted to come to Runan to be with relatives, but we were caught by soldiers and brought here not long after we left."

Zhao Hanzhang understood, this kind of situation is very common in this era, she said: "This is Xiping, where are your relatives? If you still want to go to the family, I can return the deed of prostitution to you, you take it You can go."

  The young man fell silent when he heard it, and after a while he said in a low voice, "I have to discuss it with my family."

   Zhao Hanzhang waved them to discuss with his family, and said to Uncle Cheng, "Let's leave early tomorrow morning and find a place to settle them down first."

   Cheng Bo should go down.

   Fu Tinghan was stunned, and followed behind Zhao Hanzhang, "The soldiers arrest people to sell? Why?"

   "For the money, of course."

   Fu Tinghan's face was a little ugly, "Does the government and the army still have credibility?"

   Zhao Hanzhang: "This is the Jin Dynasty. If the court and the army have credibility, as my grandfather of the former Zhongshuling, will he take in refugees on a large scale and cultivate his works in private?"

  Fu Tinghan:  …

   Zhao Hanzhang: "In the Central Plains, the most active armies for arresting and betraying people are all from the hands of the Eight Kings. Even now, the King of the East Sea has a noble status and dominates the Chao Gang, and the generals under him are still keen on buying and selling people."

"It is a relatively conscientious way to buy people for a small amount of money and then sell them. Many soldiers obey orders and directly capture the passing refugees on official roads, even ordinary people. Another place to shoot, this is a confirmed behavior in history, Shi Le, one of the great enemies of the Jin Dynasty, is a slave who has been captured and sold."

  Fu Tinghan pursed his lips. He didn't read enough books on literature and history, but he also knew about Shi Le. He knew this was a chaotic era, but he didn't expect it to be so chaotic.

  The court and the army, which were originally meant to protect ordinary people, became the most direct perpetrators here.

   "If you let them go, what if you go out and meet the soldiers who arrest them?"

"So I give them a choice." Zhao Hanzhang said: "Only they know their hearts. What if they have someone they want to see urgently? Of course, if they are willing to stay, I will do my best to protect them. of."

Not only did Zhao Changyu leave her a lot of land in the Shangcai Xiping area, but she also exchanged so much from Zhao Zhongyu. In the past two days, she asked Zhao Song, because in recent years, the gods have not been beautiful, and there are occasional refugees. The army passed by, so many tenants and long-term workers escaped, and a lot of land was left deserted.

   She is short of people right now.

   It should be said that the entire Zhao Shiwu Fort is short of people. You can see that Zhao Hu bought a lot of people.

See you tonight
