As soon as the accommodation here was arranged, Tang Yueguang took the Qin family to find his friend who was responsible for arranging work for the prisoners.

In fact, it's okay for him not to go. After they gather tomorrow morning, the stewards will allocate work to them. However, he has short hands, so he might as well go there. Besides, he also wants to get to know the background of these people.

Along the way, Tang Yueguang briefly talked to them about what kind of life the prisoners lived in Xiangping.

Lu Songli understood. To the county town of Xiangping, prisoners were like free bricks, which could be moved wherever they were needed.

She knew before that life for most prisoners was difficult.

It's not just talk that people in Guanzhuang are as skinny as wood. When the criminal officials went to the exile, some were working as coolies or slaves. All year round, they were either farming, forging sieges, burning lime, burning charcoal, or going up the mountain to cut stones and build city walls.

Half a free day.

Of course, there are also those who have an easy life. For example, our Mr. Ji Xiaolan traveled a long distance and was escorted to Urumqi. But on the way, at every post station, Mr. Ji helped people in the government write some official documents and private letters, and he was exiled on the road.

You can also ride on a horse-drawn carriage, and you can also enjoy good things such as firewood heating, fruits and game.

When he arrived at the place of exile, he was even highly valued by the local leaders and was appointed secretary, responsible for drafting memorials and handling general government affairs.

It can be seen from this that whether you can live well in the penal colony depends entirely on your ability.

The Qin family needs to work hard to be on par with Master Ji!

After about a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the place. Tang Yueguang also successfully found the person.

"Old Mo, I'll leave this group of prisoners to you. You can arrange some work for them tomorrow." As he spoke, Tang Yueguang gave him a wink secretly.

Mo Lianfeng is one of the stewards of the military camp. Without Tang Yueguang's reminder, Mo Lianfeng already knows that this group of people is not simple. After going through winter and spring, from Chang'an to Pingzhou and Xiangping, a distance of three to four thousand miles, he can do everything

He had never seen anyone arriving with all these children.

Lu Songli stepped forward with a smile, "Master Mo, I'm really troubling you."

Before Mo Lianfeng could react, a golden bead as big as a finger was stuffed into his hand.

Mo Lianfeng took a deep look at Qin Sheng who was following Lu Songli. He was also a martial artist and had some martial arts skills, but this young man's speed was too fast.

"Starting from tomorrow, you need to plow the land. Each adult male will plow three acres of land, each woman will plow two acres, and children aged five to ten..." Mo Lianfeng pondered for a moment, "Let's all pull weeds.

.”

Even if they don't give the gold beads, this is how he arranges it for them. For the prisoners under his command, whether they live a good or bad life depends on their abilities. If they are given filial piety, they will take it. If they are not given, they will be oppressed.

Especially the prisoners from Chang'an City, he will not deliberately bully or insult them, because they are like firecrackers that suddenly become mute. Who knows which one will go off after being lit?

Lu Songli asked, "Excuse me, Master Mo, do you use a hoe to dig the ground?"

"Yes." Mo Lianfeng gave her a strange look. She didn't need a hoe to dig up the ground. Could it be that she wanted to use her hands?

Lu Songli thought to herself, there are ten adults in their family, four boys and six girls. Wouldn’t it be necessary to cultivate twenty-four acres of land a day? Just relying on a hoe? That would be very tiring.

She can't do this kind of work herself. Mother Qin is old and has always been in poor health, so she probably won't be able to do it. The third sister-in-law married Yun Niang just two months after giving birth, and she can't bear to let her do hard work. Shen Erniang,

The second sister-in-law, Mrs. Cai, and the fourth sister-in-law, Mrs. Su, seem to be better than the others, but they are not like the kind of people who can do hard work.

Therefore, the job of digging up the ground will eventually be taken over by the four Qin Sheng brothers.

Her husband feels sorry for her, so she thinks Qu Yuuli can make arrangements.

"Master Mo, how long will we have to do this digging work?"

Mo Lianfeng felt that this question was not unanswerable, "Now we are preparing for spring plowing. The prisoners are all doing this work. It will probably take ten days and a half."

"Master Mo, can you give us a piece of land of about 240 acres within ten days? Don't worry, we will definitely be able to plow the land in these ten days. If you are not worried, you can come every three to five days.

Look at the progress of our plowing the ground?"

"It's not impossible if you are sure you want to do this, but there will be penalties if you fail to complete it."

Lu Songli nodded, "We are sure. By the way, Mr. Mo, can we ask you for a favor? We want to go to the blacksmith shop to get a tool. This tool will help us plow the ground. Of course, if

If you are very busy, we can go find the blacksmith shop ourselves."

Mo Lianfeng glanced at her unexpectedly, and then looked at Tang Yueguang.

Because Tang Yueguang looks like a good person and is responsible for handing over, he may be timid after being exiled to Pingzhou and has a childish complex. Usually Tang Yueguang leaves people in his hands, but these people habitually come to Tang Yueguang when they have something to do.

Help, make him tired of it.

Naturally, Lu Songli would not make such a low-level mistake as skipping reports. No matter how hard Mo Lianfeng seemed to talk, he was still the one in charge of them. No matter how easy Tang Yueguang was, he had already handed them over to Mo Lianfeng.

If the person directly responsible looks for another leader, it would be a loss of face for the person directly responsible, and he might not think that his life is too comfortable.

Mo Lianfeng readily agreed to her request, "You are allowed to go to the blacksmith shop, but you can only go out alone. I will have someone send you a plate later, which can only be used once."

He seemed to understand a little bit why this family was able to arrive in Xiangping safely. Who can bear it if there is trouble when money clears the way?

Mo Lianfeng was very busy, so when he saw that they were fine, he waved them away.

Tang Yueguang was going back to the Yamen, so he took the Qin family back to their residence on the way.

"Later, I will ask someone to send you rations. This ration can only support you for about half a month. As for the follow-up arrangements, we will see."

"Thank you, Mr. Tang."

Next, the Qin family began to repair and clean the house.

With more people and greater strength, they cleared out the house in about an hour.

Qin Zhao and Qin Sheng were responsible for repairing the roof just now. Qin Sheng was good at it and went up there, while Qin Zhao was responsible for delivering things. By the time the roof was finished, the others were very tired.

"I've finally settled down. I've moved into my new home. It would be great if I had a meal with fire wine." Qin Zhao touched his belly that was a little flat due to excessive exercise, sighed, and looked at Qin Sheng, hinting wildly.

Qin Sheng was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Lu Songli coughed lightly, "You can have this."

Qin Sheng caught her voice immediately and turned to look at her, "Really want to eat?" As he said that, he reached out to touch her soft belly.

Lu Songli quickly dodged it.

In less than a quarter of an hour, a plump rabbit ran down the mountain on hot wheels.

The speed of running caused afterimages to appear, causing passers-by to suspect that they were dazzled.

"What is that?"

"It seems like a rabbit?"

Winter has just passed, how could the rabbit grow so fat? That’s weird!

Bang!

"What's the sound?" The sound of impact attracted the attention of the Qin family in the yard.
Chapter completed!
