356: The charcoal seller "Dream in Wonderland" [asking for double monthly ticket](2/2)
The middle-aged man was a little confused.
He had heard of this place, Heyin.
In addition to being poor, it is poverty, and the mountains and rivers are poor.
It is said that no matter how good the grain varieties are, their yields will decrease here.
Refugees must avoid this area when fleeing, lest they cannot get food and be caught and eaten by local unruly people.
Looking at it now, it’s not like that.
I don’t understand why there is such a big gap between rumors and reality!
Everyone started chatting, and the middle-aged man shamelessly asked for advice on the secret of farming, and saw someone waving his hand.
"Where can this thing be found?"
"It's all thanks to Lord Shen's blessing!"
"These are nothing here. Only when you go to Fu Gu's place will you know what a 'harvest' means. Oh, I'm so hungry."
"Fu Gu's field is called fat..."
"Then, can you not get fat if you have Shen Jun's immortal energy?"
Everyone said something to me, and they were very happy.
The middle-aged man listened for a while but didn't understand.
I only know that there is a new county governor in Heyin. He came to Heyin just last year to take office. He is very young, very handsome, and does not have the airs of a high official. If you are lucky enough to go to Fugu, you might be able to see Mr. Shen himself. He
Yin's changes this year are the result of the hard work of Shen Jun and everyone in Shen Jun's account.
The middle-aged man even saw an old woman with her hair wrapped in a bun as she talked, shedding muddy tears, sobbing, and praying again and again in a certain direction, and others were also infected.
Middle-aged man: "..."
He still didn't know why.
Walking along this road, which is smoother and more comfortable than the best official road, the conditions of the villages along the road are similar. Every household is busy farming and preparing for the autumn harvest. There are smiles on the faces, there is wind underfoot, and the clothes are clean.
It took more than a dozen people to meet two or three patched people. Even if they were patched, there were not many patches. It was completely different from his old clothes with patches everywhere. The people here are simple and hospitable, and there are always those few.
When the common people saw that he was thin and tired, and that the old mule was shriveled and thin, they would stuff him with half a cake.
By the way, he was kind enough to give him directions.
When he arrived at dusk, he was worried about whether he should find a stone bridge to sleep, and then some people warmly invited him to his home. Although the home was not big and only had one room, he could sleep in the yard, which was better than sleeping at night.
It's safe to stay outdoors.
The middle-aged man hesitantly agreed.
The host gave me another bowl of warm water.
The middle-aged man finally couldn't help it.
"Boil it and drink it. Oh, how much firewood will it cost..."
The host said: "If you don't boil it and drink it, you will be fined."
The middle-aged man vaguely remembered that the tea shop helper said the same thing, and he was speechless for a long time. Life is so difficult for the common people, so it would be nice to have clean water to drink, but you must know that in drought years, you can't even drink a sip of muddy water.
superior.
What kind of family background...
Do you still need to burn water after drinking it?
The middle-aged man couldn't help but express his inner doubts, and the host laughed loudly: "Well, our Lord Shen heard from the gods that unheated water has some bad smell. If you drink it, your body will be harmed."
If you are not so good, you will get sick..."
All orders issued by the government offices are enforced.
If you are caught once, twice or three times, you will be fined.
If there is a fourth time...
Haha, just drive Ha Yin out.
The common people are not afraid of anything but being driven out.
They also know what the world is like outside. Being able to stay in Heyin is a result of their blessings in the previous life. They have enough food and clothing, work to do, and land to farm. Even the gods have such a beautiful life.
In addition, the Fugu government office is willing to buy charcoal from various households at a relatively high price, so everyone is willing to go to the trouble of boiling hot water for drinking. Not only do they drink hot water, they also work together with several households to raise raccoons.
Slave catches mice.
If the raccoon slave catches more mice, he will get a prize.
The raccoon slave in their village won three kilograms of pork, two big fish, and a piece of cloth just by relying on his rat-catching skills!
The middle-aged man was fascinated by what he heard.
I even thought about leaving my hometown and moving here.
The host knew that the middle-aged man had this idea, and kept talking to him over and over again. The core idea he kept thinking over and over again was - "Jun Shen, you are a good person and a good official!"
Follow Shen Jun to fill your stomach!
The next day, the middle-aged man took the well-rested old mule on the road. The experience along the road was very different from yesterday.
No, there is one thing that is different.
Old mules are fed more.
After asking, I found out that Mr. Shen's mount was a beautiful mule that was all white without a trace of hair. It was said that it also had a name called a motorcycle. The people in Heyin gradually fell in love with the house and the bird, and developed a certain preference for the mule. Although they had to work, they still had to work. You have to work, but the food and treatment are much better than before.
The old mule was so thin that his ribs were visible and he walked unsteadily. The people felt pity for him and couldn't help but feed him some.
After walking and walking, we finally arrived at a nearby market.
Every market has a charcoal collection point set up by the government.
When I asked, the price was indeed more expensive than in his hometown.
In addition to the charcoal I had saved, I also had straw sandals and small bamboo baskets weaved. I sat on the roadside selling them for a long time and almost sold them.
At this time, someone asked the price and threw down a bamboo stick as payment. He was so angry that he grabbed the person's hand, clenched his fist and wanted to hit him. This frightened the nearby stall owners into a commotion and passers-by avoided. The caught thief was furious.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? Why are you arresting me?"
"You stole my things!" The middle-aged man's eyes turned red with anger. A grown man almost cried on the spot.
Passers-by and stall owners gathered around to see the fun.
Finally, the market clerk was alarmed.
The clerk came over and asked what was going on.
The thief said angrily: "How did I know? He's gone crazy!"
The middle-aged man held the bamboo stick and said angrily: "He, if he leaves this thing, he wants to steal my things..."
Everyone: "..."
Market clerk: "..."
Immediately I understood what was going on.
The market clerk pressed the throbbing veins on his forehead and said angrily: "I don't know that these notes cannot be paid to outsiders?"
The "thief" was scolded so much that he dared not say a word.
He took back his bamboo stick from the middle-aged man, threw a copper coin back, and muttered, "It's bad luck, I didn't know he was from a foreign country." The market clerk said to those who were watching the fun, "Get out of here, get out of here." Only Yu Zhong was there. The young man was at a loss.
Why don't you catch the thief?
At this time, the stall owner next door asked with a smile.
"You're from out of town, right?"
The middle-aged man nodded.
The moisture in my eyes has not gone away, and I wiped the tears with the back of my hand in grievance. The money was not much, but it was the lifeblood of the family.
How could anyone rob someone in the street?
Why don't Mr. Shen punish these crazy people?
The stall owner smiled kindly and said: "Oh, it's normal. If you don't want those notes, just tell them that you are from a foreign country. You will understand after you come here a few times. I am also a businessman from a foreign country. It was the same as you for the first time. Hey , don’t panic, don’t be anxious.”
Middle-aged man: "..."
