Captain Bowie and his companions had a different view of poverty at the time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Squadron Leader Xiao Xiang insisted that it was a bandit group like the Tatars that would cause the people to be poor!

The reason he gave was also very convincing: all the Han people in the north who fled here were basically destitute, and the whole family had no property...... Their clothes are just enough to cover their bodies, and if they don't even give a few bites of food, they will starve to death.

Squadron Leader Xiao Xiang said hatefully: "The weather conditions in the northern region at this time are good, the wind and rain are smooth, it is a good time to farm, look at the places adjacent to my Shandong, but the people will not have a good life hundreds of miles away, and there is no overnight food at home...... Why? The Tatar bandit group is very exploited!

Even those who have 10,000 acres of fertile land at home can't afford to pay taxes five times a year!!

The rich are all poor, where can the poor live??

Let's talk about it, life and production materials have been robbed by them, how can you not be poor!! ”

Squadron Leader Mu Mu shook his head and said:

"Counting the Tatar bandits' taxes, it's a little more, but it's not enough...... What if they have the income I want, even if they can pay taxes ten times a year?

Or are their incomes too low...... You see, the peasant families in the mountains, no one pays their taxes, but their lives are very miserable!

Where is there anything as good as written in "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring"? They can't eat sea salt a few times a year!! ”

After the Liuqiu Guards almost completely occupied Shandong, they began to slowly understand the situation in the mountainous areas of central Shandong, on the one hand, to eliminate hidden dangers such as bandits, and on the other hand, to fully understand the actual situation in Shandong.

At this time, they often see the life of the mountain people hiding in the mountains, according to their observation, the life of those people, as long as a bitter word can explain everything, more than a dozen mountain people together do not have a pound of sea salt!

It can only be said that they have not starved to death, and all men, women, and children, are in rags.

Most of them live in low straw huts, and the best ones are wooden huts.

As for their pile of, they were afraid that the reconnaissance team of the Liuqiu Guard would rob them...... When the eleven members of the team appeared at their mountain den, they were so frightened that they fled in all directions, and they couldn't care about anything!

They had a good run away, and they must have practiced it before.

But the team members are free to deal with such scenes, they have already experienced it in battles before------ the method is very simple, and they don't need to deal with them at all!

Don't even think about going to their house, which of them is too dirty!

They don't even believe that the water in their tanks will be clean!

The reconnaissance team found a creek at that time, made water and lit a kerosene stove.

Small alcohol stoves are for individual soldiers, and a squad like theirs, with a three-kilogram kerosene stove, can boil water or soup for eleven people to drink at one time, and then they can eat a full meal with the bread and pork sausages they brought.

At that time, they were boiling seafood soup, and after all kinds of dried seafood ingredients were put into the pot, the taste could be transmitted far away, which was really delicious.

Except for the sentry, everyone gathered around the kerosene stove, drinking soup in a tin lunch box and eating bread and pork sausages.

They also bring fried noodles and rice noodles, which can be eaten in different ways, and the logistics have been good.

They were talking and laughing with each other, and in two days they had reconnoitred the mountainous area, and after reconnaissance, they found that there were no bandits except for some mountain people, and certainly no army of the enemy in ambush.

They ignored the mountain people, but the mountain people peeked into their heads, after all, the smell of seafood soup can be heard far away.

The sentry team had countless ways to deal with the situation, and he shouted at the mountain people: "Is there a turnip?!" Go and get it, a radish and a tael of salt, can you change it?! ”

If it is according to the standards in Jinan, everyone is equal, because the sea salt in the city is too cheap now...... But on the mountain, the team members felt that they were taking advantage of others.

A few days after they came out, they suddenly wanted to eat the crispy radish here, and Shandong radish has always been a specialty...... But no one carries those heavy guys.

At that time, the mountain people also felt that they had taken advantage of it, and those soldiers could have gone to the turnip field to pull it out casually, but they didn't move, and they could exchange one for a tael of salt! A salt or two!

Well, the great temptation made the mountain people pull out the best turnips and deliver them carefully, all the while they turned and ran.

The team members looked at the dozen or so that were sent and gave them a pound of salt casually!

It's not the season for the radish to be fully ripe, but it's still delicious when eaten raw, crispy and refreshing.

The team members washed the radishes in the stream, pulled out their jungle tactical knives and happily cut and ate them.

The taste is really good, and it is better than what is sold at Yamashita.

The mountain people couldn't help but be overjoyed, and they smiled from ear to ear as they held the salt.

At that time, a member of the team said to them: "You guys, what's the point of guarding this broken mountain, send the radishes, the mountain goods and sell them, you can exchange them for a lot of things, you say what's the use of planting those grains that don't grow much?!"

------Also, if you go down the mountain and find a job, you can earn food for three people for two days in one day!! ”

The members of the Wandering Scout did not stay long, they had heard from these mountain people that it would definitely be uninhabited if they went any further.

However, their task is to go a little deeper, and they can't help but complete it.

The members of the Liuqiu scouts walked away peacefully, but their words made the mountain people think a lot------maybe they should really go down and have a look?" Maybe these GIs are really different from the GIs of the past??

It's really different, they wear and use things that they haven't seen before------ and they all have extremely short hair, even if they are wearing hats.

Why don't you give it a try??

They sent representatives, picked a few male offspring, and walked down the mountain road for three or four days with some mountain goods.

As a result, the mountain fruits and other mountain goods they brought were not easy to sell, and no one bought them for a while!

But they were not deceived, they were already shocked by the previously inconspicuous village at the foot of the mountain.

Originally, they were afraid of the soldiers so they hid in the mountains, but they didn't expect that it didn't take a few spring and autumn seasons for this place to develop into a town!

Many GIs were stationed here...... And there is a market here!

People come and go here, and there are all kinds of things for sale, and the mountain people feel that the mountain goods they sell are too shabby.

At this time, a brightly dressed merchant came, and he said, "You all came out of the mountains, right?" ”

The five male students nodded their heads one after another, speechless.

The merchant rolled his eyes and said, "I bought all your belongings, except for the rotten fruits, the dried mushrooms, and the broken skins......

The five male offspring were overjoyed and made a piece.

"But you're going to work in my brickyard for three days...... If you want salt, I will give you a pound of salt a day, and if you want linen, I will give you a horse of linen for three days! ”

The five male queens were pleasantly surprised, and they were speechless for a while, and they gave so much!

However, a calm voice sounded behind the merchant at that time.

"I will count you three times as much as the conditions he offered, and give me three days of work......

Squadron Leader Mu Mu appeared, and he was calmly carrying the price.

This has become a sub-base of the Liuqiu Guard, and he is in charge of logistics, just in time for this matter. (To be continued.) )
