Chapter 337: The Exiles Enter the City (Part II)
Dong Rong turned around and left with Shan Xing, and when she arrived at the door, the hem of her clothes was pulled again, and she looked down and saw that it was the little boy before.
He looked at Dong Rong's eyes clear and full of trust, and after a few breaths, he asked a little dodgy: "Sister, I can, can I wait for my father and mother to kiss before following you?" ”
Dong Rong touched his head and said, "Be good, stay by your father's side, don't run around, and don't follow me." When you're hungry, get the buns from the uncle of the bun shop. ”
After saying that, she didn't stay any longer, these homeless people were still wearing wet clothes, and she had to find a way to solve this first, otherwise she was afraid that there would be more patients and casualties.
Shan Xing had been silent, and at this time, seeing Dong Rong's hurried steps, he finally asked, "Princess, what are we going to do next?" ”
Dong Rong didn't see anything outside, and said directly: "Go buy clothes, otherwise there will only be more homeless people sent to the hospital,"
Root cause of the problem.
Dong Rong thought to herself, fortunately, she also had shops and silver horns in the border city, and she was able to dispatch a lot of supplies.
She came to a clothing shop and looked up, and it said Splendid Hall.
Dong Rong walked in quickly, took out a piece of jade pendant and came directly to the shopkeeper, the boss was a little surprised when he saw the jade pendant, reacted with respect, and came out of the counter to greet him.
"Li Si, the third clothing shop owner in Border City, has met the owner."
Dong Rong has an impression of the names of these branch owners, but she has never seen anyone. When they met for the first time, she looked at Li Si and nodded.
Li Si urged the little guy standing aside who didn't know the situation: "What are you doing standing stupidly, go make a pot of tea!" ”
"Not necessarily." Dong Rong looked up to stop them, looked at Li Si and asked, "How many ready-to-wear garments do you have in the store now?" ”
Li Si was stunned for a moment, and he didn't hesitate for too long to report the number, "The owner, there are not many ready-to-wear clothes, only about a hundred pieces, and they are usually ordered and sewn by guests." ”
"Well, you contact other branches first, except for the ones that were customized, the others are taken out and sent to the general's mansion, and how many fabrics on hand are sent to make ready-to-wear clothes." Dong Rong said contemplatively.
Li Si didn't know what the owner was going to do, so he asked clearly: "The owner, what kind of fabric do you want to make ready-to-wear?" ”
"Keep warm." Dong Rong couldn't think of any material, so she directly talked about the key points.
Li Si said that he knew, Dong Rong glanced at the fabrics placed in the entire store, and saw that the business was okay. She finally admonished: "These are all made for the flood displaced people, and the style does not need to work hard, just keep warm." ”
As a person who has been funded by Dong Rong, Li Si has more respect for Dong Rong, "Don't worry, I will make ready-to-wear as soon as possible." ”
"Well, if you have something to look for in the General's Mansion, you can go and get busy." Dong Rong has a good impression of this Li Si, he is humble and polite, and he is a sincere person.
The two left the shop again, and Dong Rong was a little tired from going around, after all, she hadn't done these things for a long time. Shan Xing saw it and proposed: "Princess, go to the teahouse to rest?" ”
Dong Rong shook her head when she saw the half-filled teahouse, stepped out and said, "Just call my wife, go to the city gate and have a look." ”
"Yes, ma'am." Shan Xing dutifully held an umbrella and followed one step behind him.
According to the past situation, there should be more than these displaced people, so it is very likely that they are stuck at the city gate.
Dong Rong guessed that Murong Huaide should also be at the gate of the city, and unconsciously quickened his pace, and these things had to be discussed with him.
At the gate of the city, more than 100 displaced people have gathered here, and the number is constantly increasing.
Murong Huaide was calm and calm, commanding the soldiers to maintain order, the continuous light rain hit him and was already soaked, and the deputy general next to him kept trying to give him an umbrella, but Murong Huaide refused.
His internal strength is lost, and after more than half of these days of recuperation, he has nothing to do with this little rain, and the soldiers and people are suffering, how can he stand under the umbrella with peace of mind.
Murong Huaide observed that most of these homeless people had no luggage. I secretly guessed that it should be when the flood came, and it was too late to clean up.
The soldiers were counting the number of displaced people, and in such a short period of time, Murong Huaide did not find a way to settle these displaced people. After all, it can't be left alone, and if there are so many people in the city suddenly, I am afraid that it will cause panic. It's not very safe to be located outside the city.
Just as he was standing on the city wall and pondering, the deputy general hurriedly came to report: "Lord, the princess is here." ”
Rong'er? Murong Huaide subconsciously turned his head, and saw Dong Rong coming up step by step, seeing him smiling.
Shan Xing stopped when he sent it very interestingly, and Murong Huaide stepped forward to take the umbrella in her hand and said, "It's still raining, what is Rong'er doing when you come out?" The three siblings didn't follow you? ”
"I heard that there were homeless people, so I came out to see what the situation was, the dozens of homeless people in the city were still drenched in the rain, in a short time, I only found a medical center to send those sick homeless people for treatment, and found the owner of a steamed bun shop to distribute steamed buns to them, but it was only temporary, we had to settle them down and not be caught in the rain." Dong Rong was worried about these homeless people in her heart, and wanted to solve these problems as soon as possible.
Murong Huaide knew her temperament, looked at the displaced people under the city wall and said: "There are more and more people, it is reported that these are the surrounding villages, there should be seven or eight hundred people, the secret guard came to report, and those villages have become an ocean." They had nowhere else to go but to come to the city. ”
Dong Rong was worried: "Is there still a spacious place in the city?" Build a shed so that they have a place to shelter from the rain first. I asked the ready-to-wear shop to make clothes, but there were too many people here, and there were not enough people at all. ”
"Soldiers are looking for them, and I'm worried that it's not just here that there is damage, it's also happening elsewhere. A spacious place in the city...... Murong Huaide recalled the map of the entire border city in his mind, and suddenly thought of a place, and hurriedly called the lieutenant general.
"You immediately send someone to see if the location in the west of the city is vacant, and if it is vacant, take the soldiers to build a shed for the homeless to live in."
The adjutant general took the order and led a group of soldiers to explore in the rain.
Dong Rong stretched out her hand to tease Murong Huaide, and said distressedly: "You are all wet." ”
"It's okay, you're weak and beware of catching a cold, or go back to your house to rest, huh?"
Dong Rong sighed, "It's been too long, do you want to open the granary to cook porridge?" When I get home, contact the shops elsewhere and ask them to bring food and some goods. There are also medicines and ginger, according to your drenching, if you don't drink some ginger soup, it is easy to get caught by the cold. ”
Murong Huaide didn't object, "You think more than I do." ”
"After the flood, I was afraid that there would be a disease, and the displaced people who were infected with the wind and cold had to be separated, so I forgot to discuss it with the doctor in the infirmary, and only told her to heal first. I'll go back. Dong Rong thought of it and did it.
Murong Huaide hurriedly grabbed her and asked, "Is there anyone with you with you?" ”
"Yes, don't worry, after I finished discussing with the doctor, I will go back to the general's mansion to prepare supplies, I don't know what happened to Brother Di'er on the grassland." The direction that Dong Rong looked at happened to be the grassland.
Murong Huaide comforted: "Don't worry, she will handle it." If you need help, he will speak, family. ”
Dong Rong bowed her jaw, looked at the homeless people below, and without delay, she went down the city wall with an umbrella.
Shan Xing saw Dong Rong come down and stepped forward to follow her, Dong Rong gave him the umbrella and said, "Let's go back to the hospital to discuss things with the doctor first, and then go back to the palace." ”
Shan Xing snorted, holding an umbrella and loyally following her, he looked back at the brothers who were standing straight in the rain, before he followed Dong Rong out, he didn't know at all that he could do such a big thing in addition to going to the battlefield. The same can also protect the people's things.
They were busy outside, and the three brothers and sisters of Qi'er in the general's mansion also came out on the street, and after they couldn't find their father and mother, they heard the steward say that their father and mother had left the house one after another.
Brother Ming'er, who had been bored in the General's Mansion for several days, decided to come out for a walk, Brother Qi'er didn't let him go out alone, and Chenxi also wanted to go out, but at the behest of his younger brothers and sisters, he could only come out to see and live.
The three of them wore hats, and outsiders couldn't see their faces clearly. Dawn walked in the middle, and the two brothers protected her, one on the left and one on the right.
It was rainy and cold, and there were not many people coming out to walk around. Dawn looked left and right, and even the doors of the inn and tavern were only open for a short side to enter, and there were not many stalls around.
"Where will Daddy and Mom go?" Dawn was not interested in the gadgets and asked, pouting.
Brother Qi'er said: "Mother is going out to find Daddy, we don't know Daddy's whereabouts, you two are clamoring to come out." ”
Suddenly, Brother Ming'er stopped, looked at the group of homeless people in the rain under the eaves in front of him, and said, "These are not beggars, they seem to be homeless, and the number of them is a bit large." ”
Dawn looked up and noticed the buns in their hands at a glance, "They're eating buns." ”
Brother Ming'er and Brother Qi'er looked at their sister at the same time, "Chenxi, are you hungry?" ”
"It's not." Chenxi shook her head and walked forward, "I want to eat them too." ”
Brother Qi'er smiled, there was really nothing he could do about this sister. "You wait here, big brother buys it for you."
"No, let's go buy it together." Chenxi grabbed Brother Qi'er and said in a cheerful tone.
Brother Ming'er followed behind the two of them, looking at the appearance of those homeless people gobbling up, he must have been extremely hungry, dressed so thin and drenched in the rain...... Where did these people come from?
Brother Qi'er led Chenxi and walked forward, and there were no bun shops on either side. Dawn immediately pointed out, "On the street next door, where the scent came from. ”
It's also quick to get past the next street, just through the path between the houses. But the path is now full of outcasts, and if you want to take a shortcut, you have to pass through them.
Dawn was a little scared, she didn't like to be so close to strangers.
Brother Qi'er took her hand and continued to walk forward: "Let's go around from the front, take a few more steps, these people should have only appeared in the city in the past two days." ”
Brother Ming'er: "Well, it looks like a homeless person who doesn't know where he came from. ”
Chenxi was led by the eldest brother with one hand, and grabbed the sleeve of the second brother with the other hand and said, "Could it be that it has been raining heavily in the past two days and causing floods?" ”
Brother Qi'er and Brother Ming'er glanced at each other, and it was very likely that they would be guessed by Chenxi......
Although Chenxi was led away by Brother Qi'er, her eyes kept resting on those frozen and shivering homeless people. "They look so pitiful, their clothes are wet on such a cold day, and they will get sick when it rains."
