Chapter 690 Hell outside the city, heaven inside the city

Xiao Yuqi, who was not aware that he had been taken advantage of, was holding a gourd and drinking water after finishing eating the pancakes. Suddenly, he smelled a burnt smell on the tip of his nose.

She hurriedly sniffed and looked around, and found that the pancakes that Ji Fuli was baking in his hand were burnt. However, this guy was still focused, looking at the official road leading to Pengcheng, and was distracted, completely unaware of it.

The poor pancakes were emitting black smoke, and Xiao Yuqi couldn't help but feel black.

He raised his foot and gave Ji Yun a light kick, reminding him kindly, "Ji Jiu, wake up, the pancakes are burnt, and you will be struck by lightning if you waste food!", especially for someone who lacks food and drink.

Special period.

Being kicked by the girl he treasured in his heart, well, Ji Yun wasn't upset at all.

After he came back to his senses, he was reminded by Xiao Yuqi and subconsciously quickly picked up the stick in his hand and rescued the burnt pancakes strung on it from the fire.

After checking it, hey, it was really darkened a lot. He turned to look at the little girl next to him who looked accusing and distressed about the food. Ji Yun smiled comfortingly at Xiao Yuqi and told a joke that couldn't be colder.

, "It's okay, I like to eat mushy food.".

Xiao Yuqi...

Your sister is stupid!

The interaction between Ji Yun and Xiao Yuqi was completely unknown to Jia Jin, who suddenly went crazy. She only knew that she was in a hurry now, especially in a hurry, even more than when she was looking for her lord before.

Because he had to rush into Pengcheng before the lord and the little bitch set off again and arrived at Pengcheng, and then found...

In the evening after a night and a day, Jia Jin and his party finally arrived at Pengcheng. Before the final gate of Pengcheng was closed, they abandoned their money and successfully entered Pengcheng, which was already under the control of Southern Guizhou.

Because this place was not recaptured by the Beixin dog thieves, and Southern Guizhou had already sent officials to take over, the people of the once great Guizhou were not treated as cruelly as the Beixin dog thieves, but it was not good even if they were not cruel.

Maybe it was because the lord fell into the water and disappeared. Although the southern Guizhou officials who took over Pengcheng did not implement the governance of Pengcheng according to the original policy set by her lord, and did not give porridge to the refugees outside the city, they still allowed him to be treated.

Refugees who can afford the entry fee enter the city.

In the words of the new Pengcheng Prefect, the people outside the city are all Beixin's people. As the official of Southern Guizhou, why should he use the hard-earned money and food of the Southern Guizhou people to save Beixin's people?

As the prefect of Pengcheng, it is enough to manage Pengcheng well, guard Pengcheng well, and ensure that the people under his rule do not starve to death.

As for the people outside the city?

The food he brought and the food stored in Pengcheng were only enough to keep the people in the city from starving to death. It was difficult to keep the soldiers guarding the city well fed. Of course, there was nothing they could do...

Of course, he is not a vicious person. He thinks that the refugees outside were once the people of Guizhou, so he doesn't care about their betrayal by the Beixin dog thief. If he has money, he can afford it.

There was a fee to enter the city, so he, the prefect, naturally accepted it sincerely.

Of course, as a good official, he would not 'exploit' these poor people. At least compared to Beixin, he, the governor, is really too kind!

What's so ridiculous is that the person who came to take over Pengcheng was actually a disciple of Yuan Zhe, an out-and-out Yuan Zhe party. This operation of picking peaches by relying on Ji Yun's "dead" is quite cool!

In this way, Governor Gou has enough troops to guard the fortress of Pengcheng. Do the refugees want to enter the city? Yes, although he does not charge as much as Beixin Gou, which costs dozens of taels per person, but how much does it cost per person?

But it is essential.

And how many of these refugees who have lost their homes, have no food to eat, and have no food in their stomachs, and who have been homeless and fleeing to this day, can afford a few taels per person to enter the city?

I can only pity these lonely refugees who were ruthlessly abandoned by the emperor and are now disgusted and despised by the emperor's lackeys. They just escaped from the last hell and finally made it to Pengcheng. They are just going to the next hell...

It's just that Jiajin, who hurriedly handed over the money and entered the city with a group of thugs, couldn't see it!

In other words, she saw it but never took it seriously.

Perhaps in her heart, the refugees Ji Yunlai met along the way, the poor people outside the city, were of no importance to her, Jiajin. Unimportant people were not even dust in her eyes.

She led the people into the city in a hurry. She had been to Pengcheng before and was familiar with the terrain. She led the people straight to the most famous Beauty Lane in the city.

At this moment, the Chinese lanterns in Pengcheng are just beginning to light up. On the main street of Pengcheng, at the entrance of Beauty Alley where scholars and scholars like to go. It is a very famous restaurant in the city, or in other words, it was once famous in the capital of the Great Qian Dynasty, with branches all over the major cities of Great Qian.

Super brothel - Tonight, the building is brightly lit at the moment.

As soon as night fell, lights were just lit inside and outside the building. The madam, dressed in colorful clothes, led a group of second- and third-class daughters in the building to stand at the door to welcome guests from all over the world. This was not because of the famine outside the city or because of the loneliness of the people.

Even when they stopped operating, there was still singing and dancing here.

Comparing the two sides, inside and outside the city, one side is hell and the other side is heaven...

"My guest, please come in and sit down. I can sing..."

"Master, come in and have a drink. The wine we have tonight is the sweetest..."

The group of girls in Tonight Building, excluding the top one, were all charming and beautiful, and tried their best to attract customers at the door of Tonight Building.

It's a pity that no matter how hard the girls try, they can't cope with the bad times and can only win a few customers.

The old bustard looked at the street in front of him. It was obviously less crowded than after the Southern and Northern Expeditions. He thought about the two or three kittens that he had managed to get just now, and recalled the bustling glory of their night building.

I feel quite bad.

"Alas! The world is not good, and it's not easy to make a living...".

As soon as the old madam's emotion came out, the girls nearby who were forced to come out to solicit customers were also in a bad mood.

In the past, all they had to do was sit in the building and play the piano and sing, and countless customers would come looking for them with gold and silver in their hands. Otherwise...

But now? She is obviously a girl in the building, but she has to do the job of soliciting customers like the second brother in an inn shop. She is really miserable!

Just like that, if they want to have a better life, girls like them have to carefully comfort and please the old madam around them.

"Mom, there is no need to worry, slaves should work hard, you...".

The girl in pink clothes beside the old madam was smiling and comforting her softly. Suddenly, a group of people suddenly came on horseback from the front of Tonight Building, making quite a commotion.

When the girl saw this, how could she think of comforting the old madam?

God knows, she hasn’t been open for almost half a month! If she doesn’t open, she won’t even be able to get into the low-end category of one dish and one soup!
