Chapter 209

"What's the use of crying, does crying solve the problem! If you could, you would have lined up in the fields and cried. Shen Xinran roared in annoyance, the momentum of fighting for many years was not something they could withstand.

The scene was suddenly silent, only the sound of suppressed breathing remained.

"Who are you crying and crying here for, and who is raising people stupidly in this dry world. In order to save money and grain, large families do not dare to guarantee that they will not send people away. Why are you shouting here, can you solve the problem, can you get through the difficulty? If you can't just put away your ghostly appearance, it will affect your mood. ”

The employees were bluffed and ashamed by their own owners!

Shen Youlu "......"

Shen Ruoran "......"

The eldest niece/eldest sister is domineering.

They were also annoyed that they were crying like this. Coercion wants to cooperate.

I saw that everyone's mood was much calmer. Shen Xinran looked down and said, "The situation is like this now, and I don't know what will happen in the future." Since you are working under me, it is fate. 1: According to the labor contract, the corresponding compensation will be made, and an additional 100 catties of grain will be compensated. 2: The monthly money is converted into food, and everyone is treated equally, with 20 catties of grain per person a month. Breakfast and dinner are included. Give yourself a moment to think about it and make your own decisions. ”

"I'll pick two,"

"Me too,"

"Pick two."

“……”

The voice fell without exception, all of them chose two, two meals a day to feed themselves, and they could have 20 catties of food left over for their families every month. Now the old grain is one or two pounds. Twenty catties have to be exchanged for how many silver taels.

This is a great goodness. Help the suffering!

In that case, there is no need to reiterate what should and should not be done. Whether the situation will be worse or there is another turnaround, it is still unknown, Store Manager Liang, Store Manager Chen, Qiu Finance, wait for you to do a good job of distribution, twenty catties of food per person after work, and let you come back after a two-day holiday, and make proper arrangements. Those who have food at home should not be publicized, and refugees will arrive within half a month, and all villages should also do a good job of patrolling and taking precautions. This is what I can tell you, and it is your problem how to deal with it. After the disbandment, the three store managers of you will gather in the office. ”

"Thank you, owner."

"Gratitude is not something that comes from the mouth. Now dissolved. ”

In the office, Shen Xinran told them one by one, and also told them to arrange personnel to strengthen the guard against the granary and ice kiln in the dormitory, which is related to whether they can survive this drought year.

As soon as refugees are detected, they are closed. Of course, it is impossible for her to raise these sixty or so people for nothing. If you are not open to the outside world, you still have to work internally, protect the shop and protect yourself.

They also paid attention to the cloth farm, and could buy cloth, cotton and other materials at the reserve price. That's their priority right now. A series of work arrangements have come to the unitary time.

The days were long and the nights were short, and the daylight was still sufficient, so the five of them made arrangements and drove home in the carriage.

The two wagons arrived home in less than half an hour. When Shen Youlu came back, the family changed their depressed mood and was in a good mood.

Shen Mengshi thought endlessly, just come back, especially when he heard Shen Youlu talk about what he had seen and heard along the way, his heart was even more ups and downs, and he felt palpitations after listening to it. All the gods and goddesses are blessed by the Buddha.

Shen Xinran also told his family about the decision in the town, and there was a reason for the incident, and he explained it one by one.

The Shen family agrees very much, it is not easy to help if you can in this dry year.

"No matter how dry it is, winter will come, so it's time to stock up on clothes." Clothing, food, shelter and transportation. In winter, even if there is food, it is indispensable to keep warm. She had a hunch that this winter would not be going to be easy either. Firewood is also to be stockpiled.

"Then inform me of this plan as soon as possible." Shen Xinran was reasonable, anyway, there is more food than anything now. After the drought, Shen Youshou also saw her acuity and worked every step of the way.

"And our family's diet should also pay attention, our family's faces are ruddy and shiny, and this gap is easy to cause trouble." Shen Youlu reminded.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they reacted, and it turned out that the reason they had been ignoring was this.

"Well, we've changed from three meals a day to two meals."

"It's better to be three minutes full for breakfast, more or less full for lunch, and six full for dinner. Like the third aunt and the fourth aunt and the grandmother, they try not to go out, we try to put on makeup when we go out, so that the face is sallow, and we don't follow or show up. "Don't be overly ostentatious, but don't be overly wronged." But what should be saved is still to be saved. ”

"It's all up to you."

"Xiao Ran, when will your two maids come back, the situation is chaotic outside, and the two girls are dangerous outside." When Shen Wu's family saw that Shen Youlu had returned, they were worried about them first, and secondly, their daughters were running around, and they knew martial arts and were relieved. "You go out a lot, don't worry."

Afraid that Shen Xinran would think too much, Shen Wu said more.

"It's almost done, and I'll be back soon." She's heard back from them. With them at home, no matter how chaotic they are, there will be more stability in their hearts.

The thought of refugees heading here makes me unable to calm down.

"The school is almost on vacation." Shen Ziyang changed the topic, this topic was too heavy, and he didn't want to continue.

The influx of refugees has been faster than expected, and the first refugees have arrived in just 10 days.

Fortunately, the county order has been prepared for a long time, registered in the record, and divided the vacant land for them to settle down. During the day, let them follow the townspeople outside to dig wild vegetables to find food to satisfy their hunger, and stock up on their own food. White porridge steamed buns are distributed in the morning and evening.

Huidong Town has become famous in the past two years, and it is no longer the barren and backward crane tail headache town in the past. Every household has been hoarding food for more than half a year, saving money and frugality, and if the spring breeze and rain are smooth in the coming year, they will still be able to provide for themselves.

That's why the yamen dared to open the door to welcome them in. But they are not sitting on their laurels, and it is impossible for the yamen to give food every day, only ten days, to help them settle down, and then each person stipulates the ration, if they want to survive, they have to rely on themselves, and go into the mountains with the townspeople to hunt and find food.

It's enough for them, along the way, they have been rejected to numbness, and finally there is a town that can accept them, and they are not in a hurry to be grateful, and they dare to be disgusted. Originally, they were also farmers, and it was not easy to do this.

I am very grateful that I have not been suppressed and humiliated by their locals, who can find fault for no reason. Now they see people who accept them and just want to survive and survive.

In less than ten days, more than two-thirds of the town's security points were full, but fortunately, there were only a few sporadic people who came one after another, and there were no more large numbers of refugees.

The county order was able to take a breath. Every day I look forward to this end, I dream that Huidong Town is overcrowded for a while, the treatment of patients is not timely, and there is a riot and plague for a while. They are all about to lose their spirits.

had to order the town gate to be closed, and the entry and exit were restricted. The townspeople were not allowed to go outside in search of food and wild vegetables. One person from each family was sent to the refugees, and they were escorted by the yamen to find them.

The wells were dried up one after another, but the sun was still rising, and the blazing heat covered the ground. For a while, the town also had difficulty drinking water.
