After Emptying the Enemy’s Warehouse, He Carried Supplies To Survive the Disaster Years

Chapter 55 Workers are in place

Within three days, Ziyu wandered through the streets and alleys of Xin'an County and no longer had any hope in this county with a population of less than 2,000 people.

The pitiful number of soldiers and government servants together was less than twenty, and none of them was in their prime.

 The equipment was in tatters and even the knives were rusty.

The county magistrate's family has to rely on their own farming to support themselves, not to mention the people under their command.

This is also the reason why Ziyu can't see the soldiers and government servants. Who is willing to do their best after three years of service without pay.

 There is not even a decent inn or wine shop in the city, so one can imagine the poverty level.

 …

None of the helpers expected that the noble young master they regarded as so noble would have such a gentle side. “Fighting crabs, burning prawns, playing in the sand, and little rabbits…”

"What's wrong!"

 “Yes, Master!”

“Bring your own luggage, line up and follow me, and move quickly.

 Eat seafood and game as much as possible, and you can save some food if you have enough oil and water.

“The number of people eating now, including children, is one hundred and sixteen per meal.

 Bao Jiu was afraid that Ziyu would not understand, so he explained in detail.

She followed Xiao Luo with her arms in her arms, and saw Bao Jiu leading the women cleaning fish, shrimps and wild animals at the foot of a cliff that was as tall as one person. Two embroiderers were also helping.

Ziyu looked in the direction of Xiao Luo's finger, and next to their small tent, a shack was built with wood.

Chen Xiaoshan was so excited that he couldn't suppress the smile on his face. He ran two steps only to find that Sheng Xiang'er hadn't followed, so he came back and pulled her along to run with her.

At noon, Ziyu left one hundred taels for the county magistrate as room and board expenses and twenty taels for Jia Shuli as hard work expenses.

Brother Bao, have you ever thought about staying? I really can’t leave the kitchen without you. "

　　Returning with the 405 people, five calves, and more than 2,000 kilograms of vegetables that we had recruited.

“Brother Hong taught me, I sleep with him at night, over there!”

 …

 …

“Mu~a, Xiao Luo is so good, who taught you this?” Ziyu kissed the little guy’s colorful face and said with a smile.

 At noon the next day, a group of people stood in Daxia Bay, looking curiously at this desolate place.

The life without enough food and clothing is too hard. Although Niangsan has no skills, she has no problem doing hard work.

 “Thank you for your hard work, Brother Bao!”

"Shut up! I told you not to say anything, but you forgot again!"

Ziyu shook her head and laughed, as expected of a child, even Sheng Xiang'er who had learned the rules was the same.

Ziyu lifted up the little guy who was hugging her legs, making him giggle.

Hearing Bao Jiu’s sincere words, Ziyu was very moved and smiled.

In Shi Liu's eyes, the county magistrate is the greatest official, and the noble master should listen to the county magistrate!

 “Mom, there are so many fish jumping!”

 When they arrived, they were all placed in the warehouse and had no idea of ​​the route outside.

"It's not hard, it's not hard. It's hard for me to run forward and backward. I, a big old man, only have this ability."

“Dad, we walked the waterway for a day and a night, and this place must not be within the scope of Xin’an County.

 “Yes, Master!”

“Little brother, there are so many people, it’s not easy to eat fine grain every day!

 No matter how big the family is, they cannot eat this way. They have to find a way to get some whole grains to go with it. "

So many people came today, and the food consumption was at least 500 kilograms a day, which is not a small amount of money..."

"Mom, I really want to eat meat. It would be great if I could get two pieces of meat. I'll eat one and keep the other." Shi Erniu drooled and yearned for the truth.

Don't worry about it, just think about how much work you can do!

 There are so many people who know how to build houses. Even though everyone knows them, there will definitely be comparisons. "Hu Dayou said worriedly.

 Xiao Luo needs to be good. "

As a native of Xin'an County, he had never heard of such a place.

 Xiao Luo, who was leaning in Ziyu's arms, counted on his fingers what he had done in the past few days.

 Eight large pots lined up in a row are boiling porridge with steam rising.

Shi Daniu stretched out his hand and pinched his greedy brother. Although he was drooling with greed, he would not say it out loud.

“My Xiaoluo has done so many things, isn’t it very hard?” Ziyu asked jokingly.

Xiao Luo held Ziyu's face seriously and made a milky sound.

“I have been learning to build houses with your grandfather since I was ten years old. Who in the whole new An County can surpass me in skills?” Old Man Hu said proudly.

 But as time goes by, there is no output here, and it will be very troublesome if the food cannot be supplied.

In order to feed the family, she also risked her life this time.

A group of people were rocking on the boat with longing and anxiety, because no one knew where they were going next.

“Boss, do you know where this is?” Old Man Hu asked doubtfully.

 At least, he still remembers what his mission is.

Shi Erniu screamed out in surprise, but his mouth was covered by Shi Daniu on the side.

 Settling down so many people cannot be done in a short while.

 Forty years of experience cannot be gained by mouth.

Zi Yu, who got off the boat first, ignored the details and walked towards Xiao Luo who was running towards her.

They were the only family on the deck. The nobleman must have made this arrangement because he was afraid that they would be bullied.

 The daily food consumption cannot be less than 100 kilograms, and this is still when making porridge.

 Don't let the blustering Erniu offend the nobles by talking too much.

“Cheng Yuanju, take them to pick vegetables. There are many people eating today, so you can take them to help in the kitchen.”

The strong fishy smell hit her nose, but Ziyu stood side by side with Bao Jiu without changing her expression.

 Tell me what you have done these days! "

"Don't say anything. The county magistrate is your guarantor and nothing will happen."

 Chen Xiaoshan did not run away with Cheng Yuanju, and Ziyu was quite satisfied with this.

 Brother, come here and let me tell you something! Bao Jiu waved to Ziyu.

Chen Xiaoshan stood there without moving for a moment, looking at Ziyu longingly.

“It’s not hard work. My brother goes out to earn money, but it’s even harder.

“The younger brother has taken note of what the elder brother said.

 Work for a while and you can catch lunch. "Shengxing stood on a stone and shouted loudly.

  Cheng Yuanju, who was officially assigned the task, happily agreed, pulled Cheng Yuanshu and ran away.

“Xiao Luo is so good, my brother said he would be back in a few days, and he did it!

Cheng Yuanju ran over with three little ones, following Ziyu step by step.

 “Brother, I didn’t cry!”

Shi Liu, who was dressed in patchwork clothes, sighed and held his two sons in shabby clothes tightly.

"Mother, where are we going? Will we be betrayed by the noble master?" Shi Daniu, who was sitting on the deck, asked Shi Liu in a low voice.

It’s better to let them all work for a while and then talk about it after lunch.

“Chen Xiaoshan, you and Sheng Xiang’er are going too. Xiao Luo will stay with me for the time being.”

Ziyu saw that although there were a lot of things in the temporary kitchen, they were kept in order, and there was no wasted food in the garbage pile.

 Compared with the serious waste in later generations, this is already very rare.
