461 Laughing in tears

Xu Erlang put forward his request very seriously, and went to discuss a few words with others in the middle.

In fact, their requirements are still very simple, they just want a stable and warm place, to be able to settle down a little, and they don't even need to spend the whole winter, as long as they can live a little decently for a few days.

Xu Xihuai relayed their words to Xu Wen, who was stunned for a while, and looked up at the people who described the withered trees.

Although they tried their best to survive, they were already desperate in their hearts, and they only acted on their own instincts.

"Then let's do as we arranged. After a moment of silence, he said.

"My second uncle asked me to bring a word for him. He said, he's very grateful to you. He's glad you'd think to ask them what they wanted. He felt like a human being. Xu Xihuai said.

After he finished speaking, he left, and Xu Wen was speechless for a long time.

In the evening, a group of folk men came over shoulder to shoulder, and the supplies ordered by Yan Ji had arrived.

Then came the craftsman official surnamed Gu, raised his eyes and glanced at Xu Wen, stretched out his hand to hand him the account book: "The things you want are basically here, one hundred catties of miscellaneous rice, one hundred and fifty sets of winter clothes, one hundred and fifty quilts, and fifty catties of charcoal...... Time is too tight, so I can only get together so much for the time being, so I will use it. ”

These things are obviously not enough to supply more than two hundred people for an entire winter, but as Gu Jiangguan said, the efficiency of gathering so many things in such a short period of time is actually quite high.

However, these things are enough to support the immediate needs of this group of people, and they are very appropriate as an emergency.

"Thank you so much for saving the lives of these miserable people. Xu Wen saluted solemnly.

The grain craftsman was quite satisfied with his respect, snorted lightly, asked him to check the logarithms of the account book, signed his name on it, and went away with his men and the group of people.

After walking a distance, a three-white-eyed man beside him glanced back and said with some hesitation: "Master, I heard that this group of boys is from Wu Yue's side, and they are very rich. Our shipment ...... Just give it to them for nothing?"

"Rat's eyes!" Gu Jiangguan reprimanded without looking back, and lowered his voice, "Have you forgotten who gave the account of this matter? That's Lord Yan! Did you ask about Fengchun before? Now you came here and asked us to pull things over, do you think it's really for this group of unlucky poor people?"

"That must not be ......," the three white-eyed whispered.

"Of course not! Lord Yan is a character, of course, he only values these young people, especially the leader one. You look at his bearing, that look, I can't help but bow my head in front of him. This kind of person, you want to collect money from him?"

"Master is wise, Master is wise!" Sanbaiyan hurriedly patted his ass, and then asked in a low voice, "If you say that over there, it's no problem?"

"A group of broken workmanship, no road to heaven and no door to the ground, use a fart!" said the Gu craftsman official and spit on the ground, extremely disdainful.

Of course, Xu Wen wouldn't know about the conversation between the Gu Craftsman and them, and he was busy packing up those supplies.

The adults in the spring were fine, and the only few children seemed to have guessed that this was food, and gathered not far away, looking at Xu Wen with blank eyes.

Xu Wen smiled and said to Xu San: "First put your hands down, build a few stoves, and cook some porridge for everyone to pad their stomachs." Be careful not to let them eat too much and hurt their body. ”

"Hmm. "In fact, these things don't need to be told too much, Xu San naturally knows what to do.

It didn't take long for the stove to be erected, and the vigorous flames attracted some people to gather around.

"That's all there is, it's not enough to survive the winter. When everything was on the right track, Xu San returned to Xu Wen's side and whispered.

Xu Wen realized it when he heard the numbers and quantities, and he was also thinking about it.

It is now the month of December, and there are at least three months left before the spring of March.

Three months, two hundred and sixty-five people, the little material in front of them is obviously far from enough.

Fengchun people themselves are only happy and don't think about anything else, for them, the future is something that does not exist.

But since Xu Wen has taken over this group of people, he has to think about them.

"Let's settle people down first. It's really not good, the money I earned before me also has to find a chance to spend it. Xu Wen said very easily.

He came to this world for other purposes, others may have to earn money to support their families, build a house and marry a daughter-in-law, and he has nothing but to make a living.

Oh, by the way, and the family members of this world.

In Xu Wen's memory, he was the middle child in the family, born by the way, and he was not taken seriously when he was born, and he was also raised when he was raised.

Later, he was sent to Xiaoheng Village to take the exam as an apprentice, which meant that he couldn't support his family and left him to fend for himself.

Children in this era are like this, worthless.

So Xu Wen only asked people to send money back twice, and he didn't go back in person.

He only inherited the memories of Xu Wen in this world, and did not inherit his feelings. And even in his memory, he didn't have much affection for those family members......

"Well, yes, I have some money here, too. Xu San was a little aware of his situation, but he still naturally answered.

"Don't be, why didn't you take the apprenticeship test, I remember it very clearly. Xu Wen immediately stopped.

Xu San's apprenticeship test score is quite high, and the chance of passing the exam again is very high, which can be said to be promising.

Not to mention anything else, the students who have passed the college examination are craftsmen and officials when they come out of service, and ordinary craftsmen can only rely on their own skills to rise up little by little, and it is completely different from the starting point of leaving the school.

If you are not so poor that you have to do it, who wants to joke about your future?

Xu San looked at Xu Wen and stopped talking.

Xu Wen is a very casual person about some things, but he is actually very stubborn about others.

Now that he has remembered this incident, it means that his mind will not change.

And although Xu San has earned a lot recently, the pressure at home is indeed very great, and he can't ignore it.

I had to share his worries elsewhere.

He quickly figured it out and began to continue to talk about the affairs of the spring people.

The men of the Moon Age Team were already well trained, and it didn't take long for all the clothes and quilts to be distributed, and the aroma of porridge wafted from the stove.

The number of cotton clothes and quilts is not enough, Xu San will distribute it separately, one person has cotton clothes and one quilt, and two people can share it.

People in spring will be satisfied, and there will not be so many requirements at all.

Porridge is multigrain porridge, and the rice is a bit stale and not a good thing.

But the people of Fengchun still didn't care, they held the porridge bowl one by one, and thanked Xu San and them for their kindness.

It is impossible to boil the porridge of more than 200 people in one go, and even if it can, the bowl is not enough.

The people of Fengchun naturally divided the order, the old man gave way to the child, the young man gave way to the old man, and the man gave way to the woman.

As she watched the children drink the porridge so sweetly that they almost buried their whole faces in it, an old woman suddenly began to cry.

She was so old that she could barely tell her age. Her face was full of wrinkles, her gray hair was almost gone, and her entire body was covered in age spots.

She was hunched up, and her waist had already been bent by a tragic fate.

She was crying, tears rolling down the wrinkles, washing the dust and mud out of the ravines on her face.

But at the same time, she was laughing again.

With the corners of his mouth cocked, he smiled very happily, even a little happily.
