Chapter 5 After roaring, lead the team forward

Looking at the fat and thin duo in the distance, the group of shabby settlers wiped away their tears, stood up, and prepared to return to the shack area with a sluggish expression.

"Hey, I said that you people don't understand etiquette, my young master helped you rebuke the servants, and you didn't even say thank you." Yuan Xu, who was on the side, saw that they didn't even thank the young master, and stood up to hug the grievances.

In the broken household, the man who had just interceded with the official seemed to be the backbone of this group of people, he raised his head and looked at Yuan Chao and them, "Two sons, on behalf of our thirty or so families, I have thanked the two sons here, we are really sad now, and we are rude for a while, please forgive me." When the man finished speaking, he bowed again.

"This big brother, don't be polite, it was Yuan Xu who spoke recklessly just now, we just did what we should do, not to mention that I heard the official say that they will come to embarrass you tomorrow, how can you be happy." Yuan Chao hurriedly dismounted and bowed back.

"Yes, we are the good people of this locality, generations of farming here, a few years ago, the county lord suddenly took a fancy to our good land, forced us to sell them at a low price, we sold the land and sold the house, and finally fell to the bank of the river to build a shack on the abandoned land, we reclaimed the wasteland nearby on weekdays, and went to Zhoujiakou to pull fibers and work for a short time to live, and the life was called a miserable."

"Now that the wasteland has been reclaimed, our group of people has a little hope, and they have been targeted by the official family again, this time they will be driven away again, and they will catch up with this green and yellow time, and there is no surplus food in their hands, this is not our life, we really have no other thoughts except the heart of throwing into the river." The man finally found someone to talk to, and the grievances in his heart were expressed like a flash flood.

"Damn, this is really hateful, Yuan Xu, who is this county master? How can you be so bold. Yuan Chao asked through gritted teeth.

"Young master, it is Feng Xicai, who was put in Shangshui County to serve as the county commander during the Apocalypse, I heard that he is very close to our fellow acquaintance Liu Jiyu Liu." Yuan Xu hurriedly replied behind Yuan Chao.

"Feng Xicai? is a good Feng Xicai, who is not only an old veteran in the Apocalypse, but also has a relationship with the "second-in-command" in the state, and feels that he has no one to govern, and now he is going to force the people to jump into the river. Yuan Chao muttered to himself with some anger.

"And what are you going to do tomorrow?" Yuan Chao asked the man.

"Alas, what can we do, where do we dare to work against the officials, take advantage of the fact that every family today cleans up the tattered bunks, goes to the city to do some part-time work, and begs on the street, if you are lucky, you may be able to live a little longer, if you are unlucky, you will ......" The man said, his eyes darkened, and his head lowered.

After listening to what the man said, Yuan Chao looked at the vote in front of him, there should indeed be more than 30 households in this group, and there are more than 100 people in total, and there are about 30 strong men, and the rest are all old and young.

If you want to open up a new career, you can't lack firm followers, and now that Lao Tzu's team has just opened, why not accept these more than 30 poor people and make your team stronger?

After Yuan Chao thought about these things clearly, he shouted loudly, "Folks, old and young masters, don't hide it, I am the son of Yuan An, the governor of Chenzhou, my name is Yuan Chao, today I was going back to my hometown, passing by here, we met here, it stands to reason that I should also be regarded as your oppressor, your ruler, and we also made you lose your land, lose your home, and even lose your relatives and lives, but I am not the one who oppresses the people like that." ”

"I hope that everyone in this world can be fed, warmly dressed, can be sick and cured, and the old are supported, and I also clearly realize that my strength alone is too small to let everyone in the world live such a happy life, but today I still sincerely invite you, if you can trust me Yuan Dynasty, please follow me to my manor, I will make you live a much better life than now, any of you want to believe me, want to go for a while, just go with me."

After Yuan Chao finished speaking, he arched his hand towards them, glanced at the man confidently, turned on his horse, pulled the reins and turned to the direction of his manor and walked slowly.

Yuan Xu was taken aback, what is this young master going to do, didn't he say that he would take care of the family business? Why did he collect these thirty or so households first, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only turn over and chase the young master away.

Leaving these more than 30 dilapidated households looking at each other, still reminiscing about what Yuan Chao said just now, "Eat enough, dress warmly", "Treat the sick, and support the elderly", isn't this what they are longing for every day? This son of Zhizhou, will he deceive them to find fun? Do they have a better choice than to keep up with the son of Zhizhou in front of them?

"Folks, I don't think the son in front of me is lying to us, what else do we have now besides the tattered bed? Childe helped us to dismiss the servants, and now he doesn't dislike us, let us follow him, I have decided to follow this son, if any of you want, let's go together. The man looked at Yuan Chao's back, as if that back was the call from the Datong world, he had already made up his mind to follow, after saying these words, he pulled his wife and children, and was the first to follow him.

Gradually, more than 30 households settled down as if they were pilgrimages, carrying the old and supporting the young, and involuntarily moved their steps and followed the figure of Yuan Chao.

"Hey, are you all keeping up? Don't turn your head, sneak a glance back, and help me take a look. Yuan Chao asked Yuan Xu in a low voice.

"Well, young master, they are all coming up, and there are not many households." Yuan Xu secretly glanced back and replied.

"Oh roar, just leave after pretending, it's really exciting, what's even more exciting is that I succeeded in pretending to be forced this time." Yuan Chao sighed proudly.

So the rest of the journey was the first two magnificent knights on horseback, followed by more than 100 broken houses, and the pedestrians, chariots and horses encountered on the road all paid attention to this strange lineup.

And this was originally a half-hour horsepower journey, but they were forced to walk for more than an hour.

"Young master, we should say that we have arrived now, the land we see now is the property of the Yuan family, presumably the clansmen are now waiting for the young master at the gate of the manor in front."

"Oh? It's time to get home, and it's tiring to walk all the way. Yuan Chao replied to Yuan Xu's words while twisting his butt on the horse, this first time he rode a horse for so long, Yuan Chao estimated that his ass was about to wear out now.

Looking at the crops growing on both sides, and looking at the team behind him, Yuan Chao was now indescribably happy in his heart, "The day after I crossed over, I had my own small territory and some followers of my own, which is really a good start, so I must use the shortest time to integrate the resources in my hands and make sufficient preparations for the arrival of the troubled times." Yuan Chao thought silently in his heart.
