Chapter 495: Wanderers Outside the City

Fortunately, at the moment, Bai Susu's sketches are still very popular, and they have not been affected by the rise in food prices in the slightest, but the teahouse of the county lord of Hui'an has been slightly affected because it is open outside the city.

"Lord Chu? You are"

Su Su was tired of watching his own sketches, and planned to come to the street to find some materials, but he happened to meet Chu Hengyu, who was hurrying forward, and he was followed by Hui An with an anxious face.

Xu is closer to Chu Hengyu during this time, Bai Susu almost didn't want to stop between the two, turned around and looked at Hui An with a smile, and greeted Hui An politely.

Last time, it was Hui An's help that made her make a small profit, although that money was nothing compared to Prince Li's purchase of her cross talk.

Hui An didn't have time to talk to her, so he stepped forward to pull Chu Hengyu forward.

If it weren't for the urgency, she wouldn't be walking on the street like this for onlookers, you must know that she is also a legitimate and favored county lord, how can she meet people so casually.

"Lord Hui'an, do you need help with something? It's not as good as I say, we are all women, and we must be better at talking than other men. ”

Hui An desperately avoided Bai Susu's arm, and didn't dare to come to Chu Hengyu, so he could only walk out of the city alone angrily.

Chu Hengyu had no choice but to appease Bai Susu and planned to catch up.

"I'll go with you."

Bai Susu hurriedly caught up with the speed of the two, raised her eyebrows proudly and glanced at Hui An, and she was so angry that Hui An glared at her before she retracted her gaze with satisfaction.

That's what I want.

The scene outside the city was a little different from what Bai Susu had seen that day.

I don't know when most of the displaced people who came were blocked out of the city gate by the officers and soldiers, and if they didn't have a house, they found something casually, and used the interlacing of branches and branches to create a shade.

Fortunately, the weather is neither cold nor hot now, otherwise such an environment would definitely have problems.

"Stop, this is my teahouse, it's not a place for you to eat and drink at will, stop for me!"

Hui An was anxious and shouted in vain, but how could those victims who had been watching her teahouse for a long time let go easily? If it hadn't been for the officers and soldiers, those people would have knocked her to the ground.

Bai Susu didn't expect the situation outside the city to have reached such a point, and he frowned for a while and didn't know how to start.

Fortunately, Chu Hengyu always protected her behind her and prevented her from being knocked to the ground.

In the face of the displaced people who had been starving for many days, even the officers and soldiers took some time to suppress them.

Chu Hengyu came today with the emperor's order.

"The imperial court knows that the disaster is serious this year, and it is discussing the plan with the newly promoted Hanmen officials overnight, you can't trust the people in the original court, you should always trust these people around you, and now the imperial court has arranged people to give porridge outside the city every day, as for the residence, you don't have to worry, soon there will be people from the Ministry of Industry to help you build a temporary residence."

The homeless people didn't seem to believe what they heard, and hurriedly confirmed with Chu Hengyu many times before shouting long live.

Bai Susu couldn't tell the feeling in his heart, looking at the general appearance of these homeless beggars, thinking that they were still ordinary people a few months ago.

Now that the family has been destroyed by the disaster, even he has to beg for food like this.

Just thinking about it, Bai Susu suddenly noticed that his hand was being held, and when he looked down, it was Chu Hengyu!

can look at his face again, and he is still arranging the rest of the matter with those homeless people in a serious manner.

Bai Susu couldn't help but be funny, and gently scratched his palm twice, who thought that Chu Hengyu also responded to her, which made Bai Susu blush.

Hui An on the side looked angry and anxious, and he was helpless to stomp his feet on the spot.

looked at the cross talk actors who still wanted to ask her for money and run away, and they were even more angry, and greeted them with a slap.

"You are the people who were bought by the lord of this county, and you still want to leave? Make your spring and autumn dreams! ”

"At that time, we said that as long as we have the money to sell our bodies, we will let us go directly, you, you are a county lord, how can you talk doesn't count!"

A few people know that they are in a hurry, but what is the use?

When Hui An bought them, he didn't think that they would be able to redeem themselves one day.

Now Bai Susu's teahouse business is getting better again, there are still so many homeless people outside, these people don't want to help themselves make money, just forget it, they still want to leave?

Seeing the dispute here, Bai Susu hurriedly reminded Chu Hengyu, don't let these people ruin the prestige they have just erected in the hearts of the homeless.

But Hui'an is here to be so strong, no matter what others say, it doesn't work, and it has the meaning of punching and kicking a few cross talk actors.

Chu Hengyu had to let someone knock her out and take her down to rest.

If it weren't for Prince Li's laziness to come out on this trip, he wouldn't have taken on such a thankless job.

Several cross talk actors ran to Bai Susu almost non-stop to beg for him, and even threatened to help Bai Susu cultivate another group of people.

How dare Bai Susu believe them? With the help of the officers and soldiers, he hurriedly evacuated the scene with Chu Hengyu to help with the soup kitchen.

The porridge shed was built quickly, and the porridge was also boiled early in the morning.

As long as they are fed in this weather, they are still happy to stay quietly.

It's a pity that this is just an adult's idea, those old people and young children will get sick if they don't eat and live properly, Chu Hengyu had to apply to the imperial court for a group of imperial doctors to deal with it.

The pharmacy in the city also has a kind doctor who comes out for free consultation, and the overall appearance is quite harmonious.

Bai Susu naturally sensed the tension of the food behind him, and secretly rejoiced that the Xu family had hoarded food before.

I was busy going back and hurriedly found some reliable people, repaired the Ma family and the Bai family to one side, increased the wall a lot, and secretly added some mechanisms, in order to prevent those who sneaked in.

The capital seems to be calm, but people have already quietly deployed in secret, buying rice and noodles, and old rice has been sold at sky-high prices, making the people complain.

There are still some black-hearted merchants who are stockpiling grain, just waiting to make a fortune.

The business of the teahouse is a little worse than before, but fortunately, there are no homeless people entering the capital, and there is not much problem with public security, otherwise Bai Susu would never dare to go out.

The court is also lifeless every day, either reporting the news of the great drought in the north, or the current food prices are too high, or which countries are united to attack where, persuading their own emperors to also participate.

Angry, the emperor threw the fold back on the spot, and now go and mix it, who will pay for the grain and grass? Let the army drink the northwest wind to go to war?

Disaster relief in the north is inevitable.

This faction has been called a tricky question in the past.

Even Bai Susu sat at the door basking in the sun all day long, and could hear passers-by discussing who the emperor would send to relieve the disaster this time.
