Chapter XXIII Current Situation

The two came to the intersection with the main road, and found that there were people on both sides of the road, some of these people did not move at all, and they were sitting on the ground on the side of the road, obviously resting, and they could be seen, but these people looked like refugees who had fled.

"What's going on? How can there be so many people here? Wan Qiyang really has never seen such a scene, I think there was a catastrophe in China in the year of the Beijing Olympics, the 8.0 magnitude earthquake, the epicenter was in Wenchuan, Sichuan, although Wan Qianyang was still in his hometown of Sichuan middle school, but the feeling at that time was very strong, and then the aftershocks for several days made people dare not go home to sleep. Later, he learned on TV that the living conditions of the people in the epicenter of the earthquake are still much better than what he sees now, of course, with the help and care of the government, the people are rebuilding their homes very quickly.

Now the situation here is too bad, these people may have fled from the masses who did not know the truth at that time, and now they have no homes, and some have no relatives, just look at the numb expressions on these people's faces.

"Uncle Ma, why are these people outside the city?" Wan Qiyang couldn't help but only ask Uncle Ma what the reason was.

"Alas, some of these people are civilians around the explosion at that time, because they were far away and only destroyed the house, and the people did not die, and some may not be there at the time, but the family died, and now the home is gone, and now it should be thrown out, and the vicinity of the accident center should be put under martial law by the Praetorian Guard. There are also some people from other places, and anyway, wherever something like this happens, there will be a group of refugees. You have to remember that you can't show your compassion especially in a place like this, otherwise you won't be able to run away, and in the end you will be worse than them. Uncle Ma specially reminded Wan Qianyang of this, because he knew that Wan Qianyang was soft-hearted and easy to sympathize with others, and would rather suffer a loss himself.

"Oh, I understand, I try not to care about these things, isn't that what the government should do?" Wan Qiyang still brought some modern emotions to the Ming Dynasty to think about problems.

"The government won't care about your people, as long as it doesn't cause a civil uprising, then who cares if you live or die!" Uncle Ma said very quietly, maybe there will be people from Jinyi Wei disguised as ordinary people to investigate, and it is also to prevent rumors and rebellion among refugees!

Wan Qiyang nodded and didn't speak, the two followed the flow of people in the direction of the capital, there were still horse-drawn carts and ox carts pulling goods passing on the road at any time, and pedestrians only walked on both sides of the road. From time to time, there are fast horses riding, and you can tell if it is a post station to deliver a letter or a defender of the capital by looking at the attire of a person riding on a horse, and you can even see a brocade guard wearing a flying fish suit. These are not to be provoked, from a distance, it seems that all the way to pass unimpeded directly into Yongding Gate.

Looking at the flow of people, they consciously separated into the two gates on both sides, the left and the right door, the original Yongding Gate in the middle only allowed official personnel to enter and exit, and the general civilian businessmen could only enter and exit from both sides, today they can go out, and yesterday they only entered and exited, so the flow of people is still crowded. Because Wan Qiyang has been walking on the right, they also walked in the direction of You'anmen with the flow of people.

Zuo'anmen was the closest to the center of the explosion, so basically the flow of people there was out of the city, or through the gates on the left and right. The outer city also includes civilian areas and commercial areas, so there is a large flow of people, and it is very prosperous and lively. Despite the catastrophe, it also destroyed a large area of residential and commercial areas, which needed to be rebuilt by the government to restore the former commercial development.

At this time, both the government and the people needed a peaceful atmosphere and an orderly environment. But how many people in the current imperial court can think of this? The emperor is still busy with his carpentry work, and the ministers are still attacking each other for their own interests, anyway, they can really take into account the death of the Ming Dynasty, the depreciation of the depreciation, and the closure of the pass, even if there are still people who can think of the common people of the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, it is difficult to support the heart and the strength is insufficient. At present, the internal and external troubles are not too serious, and according to modern language, the sharpness of the contradictions between the common people and the imperial court has not yet reached the time when they are fully stimulated.

Wan Qianyang was thinking about how to stand up first, and what kind of height did he reach? He thought about it, at least to the point where he could talk to ordinary officials, why? The answer is very simple, because now he knows only Uncle Ma's family, and at the same time, he realizes that Uncle Ma can only temporarily gain a foothold and have a place to sleep. If you don't have the opportunity to talk to a boatload of officials because you are not familiar with these people, there is no one to match you with them, and you don't even have the opportunity to meet and talk with others, let alone have the qualifications to contact people on a higher level of society. It is only possible to achieve their goals by going up layer by layer, if there is enough time and slowly develop by their own strength, they may be able to make great achievements in a piece of land in more than ten years, but now time does not allow this, and there is no chance at all. There is also one of the most important reasons, that is, there is simply no opportunity and platform for development, and the country will be out of power in the near future. So now the goal is to accumulate wealth, and you also need your own team, so you have to find people who have the same beliefs and the same goal as yourself, and now Wan Qiyang came to the capital to do this, of course, this opportunity has to be found by yourself.

Wan Qiyang and Uncle Ma have already walked outside the Zuo'an Gate in the outer city, due to the large flow of people, but a few entrances to the city gate have been closed, so the crowd waiting in line to enter the city is also hundreds of meters. Seeing this situation, Wan Qiyang said to Uncle Ma: "Uncle Ma, you see that you have been sent outside the city gate, now you can go home, I remember the precautions you said, anyway, I just need to see more and talk less, you don't need to accompany me into the city anymore, I will return home safely." Rest assured! ”

Uncle Ma also knows that this kid is very clever, but he has one of the biggest shortcomings, that is, his heart is too soft, anyway, he also reminded him before, and when the two separated in the end, Uncle Ma reminded him a few words, let him be nosy, and let him go home immediately after getting the answer he wanted.

But what did Wan Qiyang do in the capital? Only he knows what he wants to do when he comes to the capital this time, for his own life to be stronger, in order to increase his means of saving his life, he can only take a risk once, he can only believe in himself at this time, he wants to control his own destiny. How can it be decided by God, since God let him come here, then the opportunity is there, it depends on whether he can grasp it.
