Chapter 376 The lifeline in the refugee camp
Baihua Street is mostly located in Wujia Shop, and most of them come here are literati and poets. Most of them are good-natured people, so this street also has fewer sneaking and cheating than other places, but today I don’t want to be encountered.
Yao Si was making things difficult for Qiu Ji to give her amber, but when the shopkeeper shouted loudly, he turned around and saw Wei Zha disappearing outside the door in a flash. She looked at Qiu Ji's waist anxiously: "Has the money been stolen? Go and chase her." As she said that, she turned around and ran out.
Qiu Ji couldn't pull her. Fortunately, Yao Si could no longer see Wei Zha's shadow when he went out. He didn't know whether to chase him left or right for a moment. She turned her head and said depressedly: "How many have you been stolen?" This young master would not just bring a few hundred taels with him when he went out. That would be a pity.
"Not less than one or two." Qiu Ji slapped his lips slightly.
Fortunately, Yao Si patted his chest. Now he is afraid he can't catch up. He only hopes that Wei Zha is more agile. He is a trainer at least, so he won't be able to catch a thief. If the thief is really letting the thief run away, she will definitely have to wash Wei Zha well.
Qiu Ji walked around Yao Si and went down the steps and said, "Let's go."
"Where to go? Don't wait?" Although Yao Si was puzzled, he still followed Qiu Ji's footsteps.
Qiu Ji led the way to the left and said, "The thief wore a disaster relief clothing recently distributed by the court. He must have come out of the refugee."
Yao Si suddenly realized that she had turned her back to the door and did not see what the thief looked like. However, when she heard that it was from a refugee station, she couldn't help but sigh. Although she had known that the refugees had caused certain public security problems in the inner city, she didn't expect that she would actually encounter it.
"The problem of refugees dealing with them has been plaguing Liao Jingzhao in recent months. The number of people is too large to drive them out directly, otherwise it will be a heartbreaking thing for the whole world. But after the policy comes out, the influx of refugees around them will be more and more. This summer's refugee affairs may be the most troublesome thing in the court." Yao Si murmured.
Qiu Ji looked at her meaningfully: "Liao Jingzhao has already handed over a memorial, proposing that households in various cities donate clothes, and large households and gentry donate land. This is a good way, but his method has made him have many enemies. I think he is forced to do so, but he has no choice but to be forced."
Yao Si shrugged indifferently. Of course, she knew that Liao Weizhang's proposal would inevitably cause a lot of dissatisfaction.
In a single sentence, he is Yu Gong, and it is good to solve the refugee problem, but others, especially those who have suffered from the benefits of the incident, may not have the will to blame him.
When it comes to land acquisition, you must deal with the Ministry of Revenue, donate clothes and build a house, and you must deal with the Ministry of Works. Even if Liangzi doesn’t make a bond, Liao Weizhang will inevitably be watched by others. If you take a wrong step in the future, you may be listed as a book.
Not only that, the matter of donating clothes and building monuments is more likely to go wrong. If a prefecture or county has carried out unhealthy trends and forced people to plunder the wealth and cream of the people, it will not only cause public grievances, but also Liao Weizhang's fault. At that time, the two departments of the Ministry of Works and Revenue will not give up.
Yao Si thought of all the possibilities in the future and felt no trouble. Although Liao Weizhang had no grudge against her, Qiu Zhan's death had a great connection with him. Although he was just obedient, Yao Si could not blame him at all.
How could she forget Qiu Zhan? She forgot for a moment. She just doesn't have the ability to avenge Qiu Zhan and seek justice.
But she has time, so she is not in a hurry. This time she has made suggestions to Liao Weizhang. Although she has the intention of taking revenge, she does not really want Liao Weizhang to have a hard time. At most, there will be more trouble in the future. This is enough, the person she is really looking for to settle the accounts is sitting high above at this moment.

Because they knew that the thief was heading towards the refugee site, the two of them went directly to the refugee site in a carriage. After about two minutes of travel, they passed the edge of the outer city. After another two minutes of travel, they finally arrived at the refugee site.
Yao Si has never been here. The black people were wearing all the lines of cloth and were dark in their faces. Because it had rained a few days ago, the ground was muddy. Some people were wearing straw sandals, while some people had no straw sandals. The legs were covered with dirt when they stepped on the mud.
A woman was sitting in a pile of children holding her. Yao Si could vaguely see the slightly dark water in the broken bowl. She didn't know if it was mud or rain. The weather was already hot, and the woman's thirsty mouth bubbled and peeled off, but she couldn't even drink a bowl of dirty water, but fed it to the child in her arms bit by bit.
The sound of Hey Hey You came from the forest in the distance, but a group of men were wielding their axes to cut down trees. This is a rare plain, with many wooden sheds built on it, but they did not shelter from the wind or rain.
The nose is always filled with an unpleasant pungent smell, and you can hear many buzzing flies. These refugees, eating, drinking, and urinating, are here. In addition, the weather is extremely hot, so the place is naturally turbid.
Yao Si sighed slightly, "Why don't you forget it, it's not easy to live. No one is willing to steal it. He must be forced to go to the end."
"If you are desperate, that little money is not enough. If you are looking for someone, you can still help." Qiu Ji's eyes circled around and saw a place with the most people. While raising his foot to the other side, he said to Yao Si: "Follow me."
The refugees around had already set their sights on her and Qiu Ji, and some had stood up and intended to surround them. The one surrounded in the distance was probably Wei Zha. Yao Si quickly followed Qiu Ji.
Seeing that someone came over again, the refugees who formed several circles automatically made way aside. Yao Si saw Wei Zha standing outside a wooden shed, with a faint sound of sniffing and choking inside.
She turned her head and saw a seven or eight-year-old child kneeling in front of a woman. The woman was lying motionlessly with her eyes closed. The child was holding a painted cloth towel and dipped it in a bowl of black water to wipe the woman's cheeks and arms.
Wei Zha turned around and shook his head at the two of them. Yao Si looked at the child again. Although tears kept falling like beans, he did not cry. Everyone around him stood silently without saying a word. Only the sound of flies and mosquitoes could be heard in the stuffy air.
Wei Zha walked out and said to Qiu Ji and Yao Si: "When I came, I was dead, and I was sick and had no money to treat..."
How could humans live in such an environment? Yao Si looked around, then Qiu Ji, and the three of them walked out together.
After walking out of the turbid place, Yao Si's dizzy head woke up a little. She knew that the refugee problem was serious, but she didn't know that it was like this. The outer city was only one line away from the inner city, but it was a distance of 108,000 miles.
The scorching sun above my head was sunny, and the horse was so hot that it kept gasping for breath. Yao Si sat in the carriage, dazed.
