Chapter 313 Get Money

By the time Winter Solstice ran out of breath to the construction site of the Nanyang section of the river embankment, Lu Sheige had already taken Zhang Tianfeng to Nanyang in a carriage.

After asking around in the winter solstice, I only heard from a few river workers that there was a rich young man who came to the river embankment to recognize his relatives. They also took Zhang Tianfeng to Nanyang County, saying that he was looking for his first cousin.

Lu Sheige didn't stay on the river embankment for long, and he only talked to Lao Zhangtou and Zhang Tianfeng.

When Winter Solstice found Lao Zhangtou and asked a few questions, I had an idea.

This Lu Xiaosi was quite clever and even pretended to be a relative from Zhangpu Village.

Lao Zhangtou saw that Dong Zhi was wearing official clothes, and heard that he and the young master who just came to seek him were brothers who had grown up together, and his heart dropped.

It seems that this guy is not lying, he is rich, powerful and enthusiastic.

I don’t know how Dashan and the others are doing now, so I can only wait until Tian Feng comes back in the evening to find out.

Until Zhang Tianfeng got on the carriage and staggered towards Nanyang City, he couldn't believe it.

This carriage looks very expensive. Can a man like him, who is covered in mud, ride on it?

Zhang Tianfeng was not the one who had no idea. No matter how invited Lu Xiangge was, he did not sit in the carriage. Instead, he and Qiushi sat outside on the shaft.

It's all about death anyway, so it's better to have a full stomach.

Zhang Tianfeng couldn't bear it for a long time and went to the drugstore to inquire about it.

Qingkong couldn't say anything else. Although she sold herself as a slave, she met a good master. Today, young ladies from ordinary families can't match their style. If they hadn't been bought by the Shen family and given to the princess, they would

Those who sell themselves into slaves may not be as good as those who carry mud from the river.

Zhe Xue stood beside Lu Sheige, looking at Zhang Tianfeng who was pushing and shoving two pharmacy clerks in front of him and did not move.

"Ha..." Zhang Tianfeng chuckled and said nothing.

Qiushi called out in a low voice: "Master?"

"Probably not." Lu Sheige squinted at the people talking around him, "More than a dozen people haven't come over to give it to me. If something really happens, there's no way there won't be any movement at all."

Zhang Tianfeng couldn't believe what he heard, "Why did the one I just delivered yesterday leave? Where did it go?"

How can these rich people understand their hard work? If they don't eat, they will starve to death.

The boy called the waiter in the store to stop Zhang Tianfeng, and he kept cursing: "I don't know, I don't know... hurry up and don't make trouble here, otherwise I will call you Mr. Cha."

"Actually, the food we eat every year is old food, not to mention not enough. The morning meal is so thin that it can be seen in people's eyes, and the lunch meal is rice mixed with bran rice. One bowl per person, isn't that too much?

As for food, there is even less. I heard that at other construction sites, you can have enough to eat, and the food is better than ours. But our Zhangpu Village is the most unlucky. It is like this every year, and everyone is used to it.

.”

"Sir, this little brother Zhang's cousin won't..." Qingkong lowered her voice unbearably and asked, "Is something going to happen?"

Zhang Tianfeng curled up and leaned against the car door so that he could talk to Lu Sheige more easily.

I heard that the question was about the group of people who worked as laborers on the river embankment and came to be cured after eating bad food. The boy in the shop shouted impatiently: "Let's go, let's go, we left yesterday."

"fine."

"You are not allowed to close the door..." Zhang Tianfeng stepped forward to stop him, "The person was sent to your pharmacy, why did he just disappear after saying he didn't see me?"

In this way, he felt less guilty, and it was easy to clean even if the young master's carriage was stained.

"What, gone?"

Qingkong couldn't help but ask after hearing this: "Then you have to eat it? Why do you still eat it when you know the food is wrong?"

Zhang Tianfeng wanted to ask again, but the waiter turned around and entered the pharmacy, even closing the door. This posture was obviously to close the door and ignore him.

The carriage swayed into Nanyang City and stopped at the entrance of the drug store in the west of the city. Qiushi got out of the carriage first and brought the footstool over to put it down. Only then did Lu Sheige get off the carriage with Zhe Xue's help.

"You... you..."

Zhang Tianfeng is the eldest son in the family. In the past few years, he and his father have taken turns picking up river jobs.

"Who knows where they went." The waiter waved his hand and drove Zhang Tianfeng out. "More than a dozen people were sent to see a doctor and no one paid for medicine. We are not the ones who opened the medicine shop. We are not charity organizations. Who knows where we went."

Too pitiful!

"But who knows, this year will be even more outrageous. The first few days when we came here were fine. Although the food was old, it was the food from the previous year. Although it was brown rice, we were still full. After a few days,

This food was wrong. When my cousin got up to urinate at night, he saw Mr. Cha and a few people exchanging food. My cousin was brave and followed him secretly to see. Those people were the bosses and clerks of the Gujia Rice and Cereals Store in Nanyang County.

.My cousin said, in fact, all the food distributed from above

It is two years old grain. Although the rice is not polished, it is better than what we usually eat. Those dog officials took advantage of the darkness of night and took the moldy grain in the store to exchange for our grain. We have known this for a long time, but since ancient times

If the people don't fight with the officials, there's nothing we can do. Who knows, this time..."

Perhaps after seeing that everyone was fine after two or three days of eating, these people became emboldened. All the meals they cooked on the day of the accident were made from moldy grains. Let alone humans, they were even given to pigs and dogs. Even pigs and dogs were not allowed to eat.

eat.

At this point, Zhang Tianfeng couldn't talk any more.

Zhang Tianfeng stretched out his hand and rubbed his face, "We are poor, and it is hard to have a full meal with our faces. Let alone the moldy food, even if it is laced with rat poison, we can only eat it without frowning."

Swallow it. You can’t do it without eating. If you don’t eat, you won’t have the strength to clear the river and pick up mud.”

Seeing Lu Sheige shaking his head, he took a step back and stood warily beside the carriage, looking at the crowd surrounding him.

Qingkong seemed to realize that she had made a mistake, and glanced at Lu Sheige in a panic. Seeing that she did not scold him, she felt slightly relieved.

"The taste... was really bad." Zhang Tianfeng remembered the rice that day with lingering fear.

This time the grain was so moldy that they had some old grain mixed with it on the first day. Although they knew it when they ate it, they didn't care much about it.

This is not the first time that food mold has happened, but this time it was a big deal and people died.

Zhang Tianfeng's father injured his leg the year before last, so it has been Zhang Tianfeng who has been doing the river work for the past two years.

Seeing that Zhang Tianfeng refused to sit in the carriage, Lu Xiangge did not force himself and asked Zhe Xue to lift the curtain of the carriage, and she started talking to Zhang Tianfeng.

"Um, Brother Zhang, I'm sorry, I...I don't really understand, so don't mind if I say something wrong."

Hearing that nothing would happen, Qingkong felt slightly relieved.

As long as nothing happens, it's fine. If something happens, these people will be too pitiful.

Zhang Tianfeng was angry and anxious, standing at a loss in front of the closed drug store.

His eldest cousin and fellow villagers were all sent to the city to see a doctor. Why did they disappear?
