Chapter 273: The Numb and Realistic People

Zhou Jingcheng was wrapped in a thick cotton robe, he smiled and listened, and kept nodding, which made everyone talk more, only after everyone was happy, he asked: "What are you going to do when this depression is cleared?" ”

“...... What else can I do, maybe lead his boys to practice here......"

The people below answered not what they asked, Zhou Jingcheng and Zhou Gui didn't ask more, just continued to nod, this kind of lively scene of labor is not interesting to watch for a long time, Master Zhou and everyone said hello and left, everyone present was busy to send, Zhou Gui politely and firmly refused, saying that he wanted to take a few steps and let his nephew accompany him.

Zhou Jingcheng's nephew is known to everyone, it is said that he is a native of Luzhou, Shanxi, ranked sixth in the family, and was called Saturday in the past, and changed his name to Zhou Lu when he came to Huairen, and followed Zhou Jingcheng to do things in the officer's room, the reason why it is said that because the origin of the distant nephew of the Zhou family is Zhou Gui himself, whether he is from Luzhou, whether he is ranked sixth, or even whether he is a distant nephew, it is not necessarily true.

Because Zhou Lu and Zhou Gui look too similar, the old people in the third class and six rooms were shocked when they saw it, and they were all shocked when they saw it, and they were all guessing that this Zhou Lu was Zhou Gui's illegitimate son, and he found a reason to take him back to raise him, and he would have to take over an errand in the future.

The officials of the third class and six rooms are also convinced by this Zhou Lu, although they are in their early twenties, they can do everything they can, and they can do their errands properly without offending people.

The wealth of the servants is relative to the common people, not the kind of big family children who do not get their hands wet and their feet do not touch the soil, this Zhou Lao is a big man in Huairen County, but in the winter walking on the streets, no one thinks it is strange, Zhou Gui is old and strong, although he is very strong on weekdays, but he really does not need the support of the younger generation to move around.

The people are working in the depression in the south of the city, the servants and the big families are either busy over there or watching the excitement there, after walking out of that area, the street is very deserted, Zhou Gui and Zhou Lu's "uncle and nephew" walk one after the other.

"Do things honestly, Master Qin and that little Master Zhu will do whatever you want to do, don't be angry, and don't do anything in it." After walking out of the two streets, Zhou Gui, the owner of the house, said suddenly.

"The little one knows ......"

"Don't think about it, you want to die!" Zhou Jingcheng's tone became stern.

As he was talking, he heard neat footsteps in the distance, and approached this side, in Huairen County, even if he counted outside the city, he rarely heard such a sound, and he began to feel very shocked, as if a giant was stepping forward, but he listened carefully and realized that many people were stepping forward at the same time, in fact, only the sound did not vibrate, but the two Zhou family subconsciously felt that the house and the courtyard wall were trembling.

"Earthquake...... Riot ......" Zhou Gui muttered two in a row, which may have been denied by himself, but he quickly saw the reason.

On the other side of the road, there were many people running, different from the chaotic forward surge, this team was a column of five people, each holding a long pole in their hands, running forward with almost the same posture and the same pace, looking like a wall and a mountain pressing forward, Zhou Gui and Zhou Lu looked stunned for a while before reacting, and hurriedly flashed to the side of the road.

"Align! Teach you what posture to use, look at the people around you with the corner of your eyes, are you in a market shopping? Messy and careful, go back and eat the whip! ”

Someone on the side of the team scolded and didn't listen, but the sound of this lesson made Zhou Gui and his nephew a little stunned, and said in their hearts that this is not neat, so what is neat.

The two of them just stood on the side of the road, looking at the team passing by, these young people holding a long pole with one hand are not squinting, in this weather that is full of air, their faces are red, but their spirits are not bad, and they can eat and dress warmly.

After running a few rows, Zhou Gui saw familiar faces, others didn't recognize them, the young people who were on errand in the yamen were more or less familiar faces, these young people knew Master Zhou even more, some people wanted to say hello, but they were scolded by the people in the team, and hurriedly ran forward attentively.

After the team disappeared into the alley, Zhou Lu reported the number "is one hundred and eighty-three", and for the clerks in the bureaucracy, counting and reporting is a skill in their bones.

Zhou Gui, the owner of the house, looked at the already empty street blankly, ignored the number reported by Zhou Lu, and was stunned for a while before he spoke: "In the past, these boys who were on an errand in the third shift had to give a big salute when they saw me......

"Master, these boys ......" Zhou Lu called Zhou Gui according to the rules of the yamen, and he never saw any relatives.

Zhou Gui ignored Zhou Lu's comforting words, as if he sighed a few words, and then he was stunned over there, there were hundreds of people running neatly in this small county town, and some half-grown children and children ran out of the house or followed from elsewhere, laughing and laughing, noisy and noisy, and the street was not as quiet as it was just now.

Seeing that Zhou Jingcheng didn't speak, Zhou Lu also kept silent with interest, but it didn't take too long, Jingcheng Zhou Gui turned around and continued to walk home, Zhou Lu hurriedly followed, didn't take a few steps, Zhou Gui stopped, looked ahead and said in a muffled voice: "Tomorrow, you quit the errand of the house, go to Zhu Da's side to find a job to do, you can keep accounts, he is using it." ”

Zhou Lu didn't react after saying this, and after a while, his eyes widened, and he hurriedly caught up and said, "Master...... Father...... Master, what did the little one do wrong....... ”

"Am I going to hurt you? It's for your good. Zhou Gui glanced back, his expression was solemn, and Zhou Lu immediately didn't dare to say any more.

*********

The young refugees also had to run outside the city, but when they were in the Grange, they didn't care how they ran, but after running on the streets of the city once, they alarmed all sides, and the matter didn't even stay overnight.

"Master Ai has always respected Master Qin, and Lord Qin's actions in the city must be in line with the principles of righteousness, so there is no need to ask too much, but the precious Zhu Gongzi gathered hundreds of young people and swaggered through the city in the city, making people panic, my family knows that the county has the responsibility of guarding the land, so I have to ask."

Qin Juren, who heard this inquiry, also sighed helplessly, in Huairen County at the moment, this Aizhi County would not come to inquire if there was a slightest possibility, but the scene of two hundred young people running neatly was really shocking, and the whole county was inexplicably panicked, by this time, the sky beacon smoke was no longer lit, rather than worrying about the Tartars, it was better to worry about Zhu Da, Qin Juren did not feel that the county government was nosy, such a scene was even related to ill intentions, Aizhi County, as an official of the imperial court, had to ask, of course, Nine times out of ten, the leader of the third class and six rooms pushed him out to ask.

Fortunately, there was a plan to deal with this, Qin Juren said that these people were all hired by Zhu Da for business and land, and then arranged for someone to bring out twenty taels of silver and asked Master Hu if there was any feasible way.

“...... How can this make Master Qin not torture the students...... In fact, it's simple, go to the yamen to get a clerk for employing people, saying that these hundreds of people are Zhu Gongzi's servants, and the main family can hinder the activities of the people in the city......"

When Qin Chuan gave an explanation, Master Hu breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what happened next, he would always give a step down, and the next twenty taels of silver would be the icing on the cake.

Zhu Da only found out about this the next day, because he would not necessarily eat and rest at Qin's house at night, and would often be with the refugees.

Before going to Qin's house, there was a young man who came to the door, all of them were not in the county circle, but they did not hide their identity and origin, and after Chang Kai and Fu Yu came over, they understood better that the young man did not ask for any salary, but only for food and clothing.

"Can Lao Zhou let his son come to the door?" Chang Kai muttered to Chang Shen in private, they felt that Zhou Gui must have seen something, but they felt that why bother to make such a heavy bet, their own brothers had no choice.

Zhu Da didn't hide anything in front of Qin Chuan, and said that Zhou Gui's "distant nephew" came to take refuge, Qin Juren just shook his head when he heard this, but a lot of the words he was going to say were put in his stomach, and he simply said what Master Hu was going to do, and then asked him to go to the household with Zhou Lu to go through the formalities.

With this Zhou Lu leading the way, and with the help of young people like Fu Yu Mengtian, plus Zhu Da is a Buddha in this Huairen County, the documents related to the six rooms were quickly completed, and Zhu Da also spent more than a dozen taels of silver for this, although the scribes who got the silver were pale and drenched in cold sweat.

Fortunately, the benefits of this silver were not taken in vain, and the scribes and servants on the books all wore their robes, although there was no grade, but in the eyes of the people, this still represented official authority, and they went to the house where Zhu Da resettled the refugees, and went through the formalities for these people on the spot.

In fact, Chang Kai has already made a death deed for Zhu Da, the refugee family and the family members are all Zhu Da's slaves, or the kind of children who have been slaves for generations, but that time is in the grange after all, and after the "transfer", everyone continues to be closed in the grange for training and labor, which is very unsteady.

In fact, not only is it reassuring, many of the young and strong family members of the refugees even shed tears on the spot, confirming that the fate of their own family and their descendants to be cattle and horses is so grateful, Zhu Da is very inexplicable, but he also understands that no matter whether the refugees can figure out those drills and regulations, and all kinds of other strange arrangements, but they are fed and clothed and treated fairly, the children are well cared for, and no one offends their young female dependents.
