"Hey~"
After listening to Maidong's story, Xia Ning couldn't help but sigh deeply.
This world is really hard.
Now she will no longer ask silly questions like why no one cares. This is a feudal dynasty, not the modern society she lives in.
After all, she has been here for a month, and she has some understanding of the current situation in the world. Today's Dongchu Kingdom is in a state where the top beam is out of alignment and the bottom beam is crooked, and natural and man-made disasters continue one after another.
The emperor was stupid and incompetent, and the treacherous ministers were in power, which naturally gave birth to many blood-sucking moths. The people above only cared about their own interests and did not care about the lives of those below.
The inaction of the people at the top will lead to the cheating and ease of the people at the bottom. Anyway, the good things are not their turn, and the bad things they don’t want to be implicated in, so they just throw away the bad things.
Therefore, Xia Ning can guess what they are thinking. For them, suppressing bandits is a thankless task. The most important thing is that it will cause great losses to themselves, so naturally they are even less willing to do so.
In addition, the current situation in various places continues, and the world has become chaotic. Now that the state capitals are busy cleaning up the snow before it is too late, how can they not take care of the situation of other state capitals?
In order to protect their own one-third of an acre of land, the state governments are basically conserving their strength secretly. Unless it is a particularly important matter, they will certainly not harm their own interests easily, so they simply ignore the villagers' requests for help.
"Then are they going to come with us?"
Xia Ning then asked Maidong. Now that the escort team has entered Nanman, it is estimated that they can enter the county before dark to hand over documents. And they are still following, obviously they plan to follow?
Maidong nodded and said, "I think they had no purpose before. They just wanted to escape to Nanman to avoid the bandits. Now that they met our team, they probably wanted to have a companion. It's okay to end up in the same place like this."
Someone can take care of you."
No matter where they go in Dongchu, everyone lives in clan groups. The more people there are, the more prosperous the population is. Of course, they also hope that the place they settle will have more fireworks, so that they can have more people for whatever they want.
The most important thing is that Nanman is the most desolate place in Nanzhou. In order to open up the wasteland for planting, the local area has also introduced many measures to benefit the people. For example, when outsiders settle in Nanman, they do not need any resettlement fees.
Just take your household registration and register the information in the county.
In addition, villagers can own as much land as they can carve out wasteland, and they only need to turn in two layers of grain from their annual harvest.
Although the conditions are very favorable, everyone knows that the land in Nanman is barren sandy land and cannot grow food at all. Therefore, so far, not many people have moved their families to settle in Nanman.
The people living in Nanman are either criminals exiled by the imperial court, or people who were forced to flee here as a last resort.
"Okay, anyway, the southern barbarian territory is vast and there are few people. The more people there are, the more lively it will be."
Xia Ning had no objections to their choice. She also hoped that there would be more people in Nanman in the future, so that everyone could work together to reclaim this desolate land and make it prosperous.
Suddenly, a burst of noise broke out from the crowd not far away, and the group of refugees gathered together and seemed to be watching something.
"Stop fighting~"
"Oh, stop it now."
"Zhang Laosan, stop it quickly."
"Dad, please stop fighting~"
The crowd was noisy and everyone began to dissuade him.
Xia Ning couldn't help but stand up, stretched her neck and looked around, but her sight was completely blocked by the group of villagers, and she couldn't see what was happening at all.
"It seems like someone is fighting?"
Song Shaoqin secretly held her hand to prevent him from rushing over to her accidentally.
"Don't look at it, the elders in their village will take care of it."
Xia Ning lowered her head and looked at the hand that was being held, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Don't worry, I won't go."
Although she is sometimes nosy, she does not take action in all nosy matters. She also depends on others.
"Second Madam, Aunt Xu has already prepared lunch. Let's go eat first." Maidong reminded quickly.
Hearing this, Xia Ning instantly missed the food cooked by Aunt Xu, "Let's go, let's eat!"
**
After lunch, Xia Ning and Song Shaoqin didn't bother to rest. They and Song's father immediately summoned the core members of the team for a small meeting.
The main thing is to discuss a charter, such as the next settlement issues, and how they will spend the upcoming cold winter after settling in, etc.
An hour later, the escort team set off on the road again. The fleeing villagers immediately followed the team. Perhaps they themselves knew that such behavior was not good, so they did not follow closely, but walked not far or near.
behind.
This time, the escort team was no longer heading towards the wilderness, but towards the crowded and bustling county town.
Song Yunxi and her sisters followed Xia Ning on a new electric tricycle. Li Jiang and Hu Zi were in the driver's seat in front. Song Shaoqin was sitting with his father and second uncle. Because they still had to discuss some things, the female family members followed
The men rode in separate cars.
"Those kids are so pitiful~"
Song Chuying held her chin in her hands and looked at the villagers who were struggling to drive behind the car with a pair of dark eyes. Among the crowd were several seven or eight-year-old children, sweating profusely, following their parents.
Unlike the children in the escort team, they could be held or carried along the way, and they were not even held by their parents and walked completely independently on their own.
Of course, it's not that their parents are really so cruel and don't care about their children at all, but that among these fleeing villagers, except for children under eight years old who have no baggage, almost all of them, without exception, have baggage.
Some are carrying burdens, some are pushing carts, some are carrying bamboo baskets, some are carrying baskets, and some are carrying sacks on their shoulders. Even the teenage children have a small basket on their back, or they are carrying a
A small cloth bag.
In short, no one's hands are idle, so they really don't have extra hands to lead young children.
"."
Xia Ning and Song Yunxi were silent. It was really hard to answer this question. They did have some conditions and abilities now, but they couldn't help anyone just because they felt sorry for them, right?
Then there are so many poor people in the world, it's impossible for them to save the world, right?
Even Xia Ning, who has a golden finger, dare not swear that she can save the world. What's more, she has no such ideas and broad mind. After all, she is just an ordinary little person.
