PS: I'm sorry to everyone, I went out on National Day and just came back.

It will be updated again this Sunday.

This is the proper righteousness, and of course you have to obey the management of other people's bowls, and this group of poor people who have just escaped from the rule of Houjin have no objection to this. Everyone was just curious, what strange rules could be had for these shorthairs who were strangely dressed and had even stranger attitudes?

"But everyone can rest assured, we are not Jianzhou Tartars, and we will not have those bastard rules that bully and insult people. Within the jurisdiction of our Qiong Navy, we will never allow bullying and insulting things to happen! ”

Next, the soldier briefed the refugees on the basics of the Joan Navy and the rules that needed to be followed under their rule—at first glance, they sounded simple, nothing more than simple rules such as "Death to the murderer, death to the wounder, and punishment for the thief." A few of the refugees who have read a little bit of books and studied history still think that this short-haired heart is so big, and they dare to take the three chapters of the law in Liu Bang's entry into the customs as an example, and they are not afraid that the Ming court will trouble them.

Later, after staying for a long time, I realized that these short-haired people actually have a lot of rules, far from being comparable to a mere "three chapters of the law" - for example, there are rules for walking, and they can't walk in the middle and require to be on the right hand. However, these rules are indeed as the soldier said, they are not set up to bully people, and each rule has its meaning, and they are all very practical things. For example, now, after briefly expounding some big rules, the soldier did not continue the topic, but talked about the aspects that they were most concerned about:

"Here at Arthur, we will provide you with the most basic means of subsistence - everyone has finished eating, right? Keep your cutlery - well, that's it, don't lose it, we only give out one set for free, and if you lose it, you'll have to pay for it yourself. ”

This sentence is said. Almost all of them put away the rough-looking wooden cutlery at once, and there was no need to wash it—they had already been licked clean. And the soldier continued:

"We will provide you with two bowls of white rice porridge every day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, which is provided free of charge, which means that even if you don't do anything and lie in the shack all day and sleep in the shack, you will get two bowls of rice porridge every day without worrying about starvation - but only two bowls of porridge. The rest, however, is to be earned by labor -- the most important of the rules of our Qiong Navy is that 'if you don't work, you can't eat.'" Everyone has to be self-sufficient. Of course, the exception is for children, who are very preferential in our place. ”

As he was talking about this, he suddenly heard the bell ringing, but it was time for dinner, and a large number of people who had been working outside had come back to eat. The soldier motioned for everyone to get up and give up their seats, but instead of leaving the camp, he found an open space for everyone to sit or stand in a circle and continue to do his "ideological work."

But at this time, everyone's attention was drawn to the scene of the laborers eating. Compared to the size of their hundreds of people just now, thousands of people have entered this camp one after another. Unlike the newcomers, who were waiting to bring their food, the laborers went to the stalls to receive their food. And the variety of those food stalls is much richer than just now, except for rice porridge and white flour steamed buns. There are also pancakes, flower rolls, rice cakes, and even large meat buns!

There are thoughtful and delicate ones. It was also noted that in addition to the free rice porridge, the laborers had to exchange a small iron sign for food in front of other stalls, which seemed to be some kind of voucher for exchanging food. The "purchasing power" of this iron brand is not low: one iron brand can be exchanged for five steamed buns. Four flower rolls or baked cakes, or two large meat buns - the latter is not too many people are willing to exchange, but there are always people who are willing to exchange grain for meat. In addition, anyone who used the iron plate could also get a big bowl of Hu spicy soup, which was red and hot, and a spicy smell came from afar, and the throats of the refugees who were only watching were surging, and almost all the gluttonous insects that had just been suppressed came up.

Seeing their greedy looks, the soldier smiled and said:

"Envious, right? But it's nothing, if you move quickly, you'll be treated like them tomorrow - many of them have fled like you, and some of them have only arrived a few days before you. As long as you are willing to work here, you can get that little iron medal, and one iron medal can be exchanged for a very good meal. ”

"Master Bing, I don't know how long it will take to take that kind of iron card?"

The leader asked, and the soldier responded:

"The standard is two a day, which is just enough to meet the needs of two meals a day, and if you do well and get extra rewards, three or four are possible - you see that most of those who are willing to exchange meat buns are such people. Of course, if you don't do well and don't meet the standard, you may be fined one, but in any case, as long as you are willing to participate in labor, at least one iron card a day, that is, a good meal, this is the minimum - rest assured, the vast majority of people can get two, we are not Tartars, do not do that kind of bullying thing. ”

These words reassured everyone a lot, and a more flexible young man even said:

"Master Bing, I want to work in this camp, can I?"

This request seemed a bit bold, and everyone around him was a little nervous, but the young soldier laughed:

"Clever man, the master who can't starve to death in a famine year, working in the canteen is the best errand on our side. It's a pity that these good places have long been occupied, and they can only be vacated when the people in front of them are gone. ”

"Let's go?"

The word attracted everyone's attention again, and the soldier rightly pointed to the seashore, the lonely pier of the long bridge:

"Go to the south, Taiwan, Luzon, or the main island of Qiongzhou. It's much more comfortable there than here, at least it's not that cold. Then you will all be able to live and work in peace, and we will not be frozen here. ”

"Are the soldiers going to leave too?"

"Yes, our Qiong Navy will not be stationed here permanently, and we will go back to the south after this winter. When the time comes, we will bring with us all those who will go with us, but before that, people have been transported south one after another, because everyone wants to go first, so they have to be arranged in order, and those who come early will also leave early-but don't worry, we will never leave a single civilian, and we will certainly carry everyone away when spring comes. ”

"That'...... Can we go to Shandong? ”

Someone asked again, and the soldier said unhurriedly:

"The Ming court does not accept it, you have probably heard that not long ago there was a big rebellion in Dengzhou, Shandong, which was caused by the Liaodong soldiers, and Kong Youde, who stood in your way, was the leader of the rebels. The imperial court is now very wary of your Liao people, and they don't care if we go to the south to transport people, but if they want to transport people to the mainland, they will never agree. ”

It makes sense to say that these refugees, who originally only wanted to escape from the rule of the Jianzhou Tartars, but did not want to leave their homeland too far, fell silent. When people have a choice, it is always easy to pick and choose, but if there is simply no way back, they can also make up their minds:

"It seems that the only way to go is to the south."

The Shouling muttered, and the soldier smiled, it was obviously not the first time he had dealt with such a request.

"When you get there, you will know the good - the fields are very fertile, the rice is ripe three times a year, and the four seasons are always warm like spring, and the vegetables and fruits are constantly growing, and your nose will freeze off in such a hellish place...... There's nothing good to eat yet. ”

Soldiers from the south were not well adapted to the cold regions, and although the abundant supplies of the Joan navy kept them from freezing and starving, it was inevitable that they would feel uncomfortable.

After all this gossip, see that everyone is almost rested, and the food that has just been eaten in the stomach can almost guarantee a certain amount of physical strength, and there will be no tragedy such as it is easy to get to the ground and then die - this kind of thing has happened before, so the containment procedures have been adjusted, and people will be given something to eat and replenish some energy when they come.

And at this time, the soldier also strictly followed the requirements of the standard procedure for the reception of refugees, clapped his hands, and motioned for everyone to follow him:

"Alright, everyone's pretty much rested. Now I'm going to take you to the camp, and you'll have to get your own shacks out first, or the night won't be easy. ”

As he spoke, he led the more than 100 people towards the rest camp, and following his finger, the refugees saw that on the leeward side of the hill just now, the neat and neat checkerboard-like squares were all pre-planned campsites. It doesn't seem too big from a distance, but when you get closer, you can see that each camp is a few acres in circumference, and there are no houses in between, but rows of small shacks half-buried in the ground, through a small opening and traffic with the outside world, the ventilation and lighting must be very poor, but it is warm and sheltered, and it is the most suitable as a temporary residence in winter.

At the entrance to the camp, another group of people was waiting with several carts, and when the refugees were divided into families, each family was assigned a piece of felt and a blanket, as well as a large amount of dried straw - to cover up.

"You have to keep it, it's just a free one, and if you lose it, you have to spend another money to buy it."

The soldier smiled and said that with food, shelter, and bedding, it was a little more rudimentary, but at least survival was no longer a problem—and all this proved that this strange army, which called itself the Joan Navy, really wanted to keep the fugitives alive, and the realization of this was even more heartwarming than the bedding in his hands.
