Chapter 87: The Arrival of the Exiles
Liu Tiezhu is a native of Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan, he has no household registration, that is, the legendary hermit, in the harvest year, relying on farming for the landlord, his family can barely survive.
However, in a disaster year, the landlord's family could not have enough to eat, and these hermits who relied on the landlord to live should not fill their stomachs.
No, not only can't fill the stomach, but even digging grass roots, it may not be able to dig up, and it is very common to eat.
Local, don't even think about finding food.
But people always have to live, so the only way is to leave their homeland.
Liu Tiezhu's family escaped, his parents had starved to death on the road, but he didn't have time to grieve, if he couldn't reach Tianjin Wei as soon as possible, he and his wife and children would also starve to death.
If you can reach Tianjin Wei, it is said that there is still a way to live. Because I heard from the people who were kind enough to distribute relief that the imperial court had ordered all the displaced people to be resettled in Tianjin, Shuntian Mansion.
Where is Tianjin Wei, Liu Tiezhu doesn't know, but he knows that following the big team, because of the disaster and becoming a homeless, not only hidden households like them, but also some down-and-out Xiucai Gong, those Xiucai Gong, after all, are knowledgeable people, they know which direction Tianjin Wei is, follow them, yes.
This section of the road was extremely difficult to walk, but fortunately, as they continued to move forward, the relief food from the imperial court continued to arrive, and they could barely drink a bowl of gruel occasionally on the road.
Therefore, when Liu Tiezhu and his family arrived in Tianjinwei, they did not starve to death.
"Daddy, this is Tianjin Wei, right?"
Looking at the city in his sight, which was much larger than his hometown county, Liu Tiezhu's wife showed a shocked look.
"Well, it should be true, but what should we do when we arrive in Tianjinwei?"
There is this question, but not only Liu Tiezhu, their team of thousands of people, everyone has such a question, this Tianjin Guard, it is obvious that the garrison is heavily guarded, how can they enter this city with such a displaced person who has left his hometown.
"Bell, bell, bellโ"
"All the displaced people have listened, I just want to say it once, all of you come to my side to register, truthfully report where you are from, what your surname is, after registration, each person can receive a bowl of fish porridge. After eating, you will have to work, and only by working will you have something to eat, and those who do not work, sorry, we do not raise useless people. โ
"Daddy, did I hear it wrong, this government actually distributes fish porridge? Did God open his eyes? โ
"I'd love to hear about fish porridge."
"Me too."
"It's supposed to be fish porridge."
โฆโฆ
"Bell, bell, bellโ"
"What a noise! What a noise! Our sect leader and Li Gongzi are merciful and compassionate, give you fish and porridge to eat, you still doubt, don't know what to do! โ
This time to settle the displaced people, Li Zhaotong did not use the officials of the government or the soldiers of the Tianjin Guard, but used the members of Zhu Houzhao's Sun and Moon God Sect.
The person who struck the gong in front of the displaced people was a member of the Sun and Moon God Cult.
"This official, may I ask who the sect leader and Li Gongzi are?"
An outcast, who was close to the Cult of the Sun and Moon, asked boldly.
"First of all, you have to make it clear that I am not an official, I am a disciple of the Sun and Moon God Sect. You must remember this, don't make a mistake, you may not be able to eat!
Secondly, our sect leader is the greatest holy sect master of our Sun and Moon God Sect, he is the only son of His Majesty today, and he is also His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the current dynasty!
Therefore, you must remember that after eating our relief food, you must be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, to His Royal Highness the Prince, and not to participate in the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect, otherwise, you don't want to eat it because of the fish porridge, it is Guanyin soil, and you don't want to eat it, the only thing you can eat is the severed head rice.
In addition, you must remember that if anyone participates in the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect and reports the whistleblowers, not only will the government reward you, but our Sun Moon Divine Sect, as well as Li Gongzi's New Oriental Divine Sect, will also reward you. The rewards are generous, and everyone is welcome to report and expose!
Finally, it is the Li Gongzi you want to ask, Li Gongzi is the second son of Li Dongyang, the old man of the Imperial Court, he is the only good friend of His Royal Highness the Prince, and the ancestor of the New Oriental Divine Cult, and most importantly, Li Gongzi is the descendant of the sage Lao Tzu!
It is precisely because of the identity of Li Gongzi's saint successor that you can have fish and porridge to eat, and when you come to Tianjin Wei, you will have a way to live! Because the fish and meat you eat are personally led by Li Gongzi to the sea to fish, and the work arranged for you is also for Li Gongzi and our sect leader.
Oh, by the way, if any of you have money, I suggest that you go to the Sancha estuary pier in front of the Tianfei Palace as soon as possible to buy a few fish to eat, because the fish is very cheap now, a penny a piece, a piece weighs half a catty, and you will definitely not suffer a loss if you buy it! โ
The last sentence was actually a private item carried by this member of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, because the one who sold fish at the mouth of the Sancha River in front of the Tianfei Palace was their Sun Moon Divine Sect.
This member of the Sun and Moon God Cult also worked hard, and in order to promote sales, even the homeless people gave publicity.
"Okay, look at your drooling cowardice, hurry up and register, the fish porridge will be delivered immediately. Hmph, don't eat it in the future. โ
This member of the Sun and Moon Cult was a little proud.
He does have proud capital, because it has been a week since Xiao Zhu Xiucai returned to the dog with a full load for the first time, and during this week, Tianjin Wei was full of fish fragrance.
Because fish is really cheap, a penny a piece, far more cost-effective than eating other grains.
In addition, the members of their Sun Moon God Sect can also enjoy the discount of selling two for a penny, and Li Gongzi also promised them that when there are more ships in the future, the members of their Sun Moon God Sect can eat with their bellies open, and they can really eat until they vomit.
Therefore, now that the threshold for entering the Sun and Moon God Cult has been raised, it does not mean that if you want to join the Sun and Moon God Cult, you can join the Sun Moon God Sect.
Now if you want to join the Sun and Moon Cult, you must accumulate enough points.
Where do the points come from?
There are many ways, such as contributing to the Sun and Moon God Cult, discovering the traces of the White Lotus Sect, and how many words you can read, and working hard can earn points.
Although it is easy to obtain points, it is unlikely that you can accumulate enough points for a while and a half, unless you have made outstanding contributions.
Therefore, those of them who joined the Sun and Moon God Cult in the early days had a very high status.
Now the members of the Sun Moon God Sect are walking on the territory of Tianjin Wei, and they are all very face-saving!
The people like them, the officials don't look down on them, and when they see those officials, they can walk with their heads held high!
It's like before, it's precarious!
Therefore, for their sect leader Zhu Houzhao, these people are becoming more and more fanatical.
However, the situation of their sect leader does not seem to have changed much because of their fanatical beliefs.
