Chapter 283 We are spies, so why are we arrested to repair the reservoir

The spies were nervous, clenching their fists, staring at the pen in the clerk's hand, and at the same time looking at the militia with red tassel guns nearby, ready to flee at any time, as for going head-on with the militia, they didn't dare, because they were afraid of revealing their identities, and they didn't even bring a dagger, and they did it with their bare hands with these people, who were tall and strong, and looked very strong, that is, pure death, not something that normal people do.

Escape is their best way out, only by running away with their lives, it is possible to run out, run out, it is possible to survive, of course, the premise is that they are exposed, and it is very simple to expose them, ask a few more questions, with their almost untrained detectives, almost all of them will come out of the tray.

However, the clerk did not ask too much, but simply asked for information such as their home addresses, and put them together with ordinary refugees.

The three of them were relieved, and thought that Lantian County's interrogation would be so sad, but they didn't expect that they would let themselves pass the test so easily in the end, and the three of them had a feeling that Lantian County was just like this.

The militia gathered a hundred refugees together, and one of the militiamen came over and looked at the clerk with a smile, and the clerk said: "Take it, then their preliminary examination form, when they arrive at the reservoir construction site, there will be a doctor to check whether they have any epidemics." ”

The militia smiled at this time: "I understand, this is not the first time I have done a transportation business. ”

When the clerk heard this, he said: "By the way, there are three spies here, and there are many loopholes in the words when they asked just now, I didn't dare to ask more, for fear that they would be alert, and they have already marked a special mark on the file, and the receiving personnel over there will see it." ”

"Gotcha."

When the militia heard this, he understood that there were spies in this group of refugees, and the militia didn't care at all, and he was quite nervous when he encountered this kind of thing for the first time, but after a few times, he was not nervous at all, wasn't he just a spy?

Don't make a fuss, these days the spies transported to the reservoir, not a hundred, but eighty, these thieves do not have a superb method of cultivating spies, they just use a stupid method, that is, cast a wide net.

kept sending spies to Lantian County, and the idea of the thieves was that there would always be one or two fish that slipped through the net, and as long as they took root in Lantian County, there would always be a way to listen to some information.

The militia felt a little ridiculous about this.

At present, there are 87 checkpoint barricades in Lantian County, and about 200 militia members are stationed in turn at each checkpoint barricade, and students majoring in psychology from Lantian Academy come to act as clerks at each checkpoint barricade.

These students are too powerful, they can determine the identity of each other with a simple conversation, in fact, you don't need to answer, some of your simple actions may be found in the eyes of these students.

For example, when you are asked, your eyes are erratic, you subconsciously touch your nose and chin, and when you are talking, you like to put your arms on your chest.

And then with their dedicated inquiry, you can even explain everything without even realizing it.

That's the job of these clerks, who look like they're recording your household registration information, but they're already unknowingly figuring out who you are, and you don't know it yet.

The militia led the people, and then led a hundred people to escort the refugees to the reservoir they had just built nearby, Lantian County did not know why there were so many reservoirs, almost every ten miles of land had to build a small reservoir, every fifty miles to build a huge reservoir, the reservoirs were like spider webs crisscrossed, so that the entire land of Lantian could be irrigated.

Because of this, because the land of Lantian has to expand every day, the reservoir can never be completed, and the people of Lantian are reluctant to build the reservoir, this work is too tiring.

They prefer to farm, open up wasteland, or do some small business, or even do odd jobs for the landlord's family is much easier than repairing reservoirs, so this kind of reservoir is mostly repaired by the victims who have just joined Lantian.

First, they have little pay, just take care of food, and don't need money at all.

Secondly, the county said that if you want to join Lantian County, you must contribute to Lantian County, and these people have made contributions, and now most of the big reservoirs used in Lantian are built by them, so they are suffering in front, so they can enjoy today's wealth.

And these victims did not contribute to Lantian County, so why should they enjoy the prosperity of Lantian County, this is unreasonable.

The simple people of Lantian County, only after you have repaired the reservoir for half a year, can you sincerely accept you, and at that time, the government will also come to register you, will come to help you settle down in various villages and towns in Lantian County, and will help you rent two acres of land, which is enough for you to starve to death in Lantian County.

At this time, as long as you are not a lazy person, you can go to the nearby rich family to do odd jobs, or go to the labor exchange market at the Yamen to find work and earn money to save.

When you have completely saved enough money, you can wait for the opportunity in Lantian County to see if you can buy one or two acres of your own land.

At that time, you will look at the new victims with the eyes of the master, supervise whether they have worked in the construction site for half a year, and helped Lantian County repair the reservoir for half a year, if not, you will not allow these people to enter Lantian County, only after completing the above process, these people will be accepted by Lantian and Lantian people.

This is what you need to do if you want to become a Lantian County person, it is not simple, it is not easy, and it is precisely because of this that the identity of Lantian people will bring them greater honor, and they think that being a Lantian person is a glorious thing.

The three spies were escorted by the militia, and walked forward in a daze, and the leader saw that they did not look like they were going to the hinterland of Lantian, so he secretly came to the militia escorting them, took out an egg in his pocket, and gave it to a militiaman flatteringly: "Big brother, eat an egg." ”

The militia glanced at the spies, he didn't eat less good things in the past two days, eggs, jerky, and even some people bribed the militia with copper money, the militia did not refuse these bribes, eggs, jerky, they ate themselves, and all the copper coins were handed over, and the copper coins did not dare to keep, sneaking into their pockets was considered greedy ink, and they would be kicked out of the militia if they were caught.

And being kicked out of the militia ranks is absolutely unbearable for these militiamen, you don't know how difficult it is to be a militia, first of all, you have to screen, not only physical fitness, but also identity, you must live in Lantian for more than three years with your family to join.

This is followed by high-intensity military training, and only after passing can you officially join the militia.

And in the village, the children of the family became militiamen, which was an extremely glorious thing, the whole family went out to talk with straight waists, and the parents of the family said to the outside that my son was a militiaman, then everyone would cast envious eyes.

Moreover, the militia is treated very well, and when the farm is busy, the family does not delay farming, and when the farm is not busy, it can still earn a salary, which can be envied, if you are kicked out of the militia ranks.

That will be squeezed out by the whole village, or even the whole county, because being kicked out of the militia generally means that the person has a bad character, or because of greed for ink, or because of laziness, and repeatedly refuses to change, it can be said that as long as he is kicked out of the militia ranks, he will be despised by everyone.

Therefore, every militia member is unwilling to be kicked out of the militia ranks, so they dare not be greedy for any penny, but for the food sent, then you don't have to be polite, the captain said, the money is handed over to the public, and the delicious food is kept for food.

After eating, there is no need to be too good to the person who brings the food, such a person is either an enemy spy or a shameless landlord who is accustomed to speculation, and they disguise themselves as disaster victims, but they hide delicious food, and they must have plotted against it.

In fact, it is very simple, Lantian County has two treatment modes for people who take refuge, the first is the disaster victim model, you are a disaster victim, you just work in the Lantian Reservoir for half a year.

However, some people who take refuge in Lantian are some people with a relatively solid family background, they are afraid of the attack of thieves and want to find a safe place to live, for this kind of people, Lantian County also accepts and welcomes them.

After entering Lantian County, these people must report their property to Lantian County, Lantian County will charge a fee for entering the county, and then will stipulate a tax task that is not very difficult to complete.

Someone calculated, this operation, about half of the family property will be left, this is already a great grace, in the troubled times, someone is willing to protect you, and leave you the general family property, what else do you want a bicycle.

However, there is one thing to mention, this rich family who enters Lantian must be a pure white family, if you are full of evil, bullying men and women to loot the wealth, to Lantian County, and being found out of the whereabouts, then I'm sorry, waiting for such a bully will be confiscated family property, and people will also be sent to the reservoir for labor reform.

Therefore, there are often people who secretly hide gold and silver and mix into the refugee team, wanting to endure hard labor for half a year, and then take the money to live in Lantian County and continue to be his master.

For such people, the result is generally that the money is reported by the workers at the construction site, and the person is also fined by Lantian County for half a year.

I also had to go to the yamen to fight a lawsuit, and the yamen would have a special person to try it, and then he was sentenced.

And there are only two kinds of criminal law in Lantian County, one is to be decided, and the other is to be a coolie for several years, how can you honestly be locked up in a prison and stay, impossible, dream of it.

In the words of the county honor, you must not waste food, Lantian County does not work and cannot eat, even prisoners are the same, so you will often see a group of people in white prison uniforms working in the reservoir, they work in a separate place, there are a large number of militia guards nearby, no one dares to run, because if they are caught, they will be beheaded, and those who work in the reservoir, as long as someone finds someone running away, have a reason to arrest them, and the prisoners can be reduced after being caught, and the disaster victims can reduce the construction period.

However, it is precisely because of this decree that there was a very bad case, an old official of Lantian County, when he was working, received the money of a landlord who hid his property, so he pretended to send a prisoner to the periphery to get something, and then when the prisoner went away, he shouted that the prisoner ran away, and then the landlord who paid the bribe went up to catch the ignorant prisoner.

In this way, he would be given the privilege of a reduction in the time of the work, and the prisoner would be beheaded almost immediately when he was brought back, and the matter could not be omitted at that time.

Coincidentally, the county came to inspect the construction site that day, and saw the prisoner's ignorant appearance and doubted his heart.

At that time, the county was furious, and the people in the discipline inspection room were strictly ordered to investigate, and a group of people were soon found.

At the same time, the county also made a review in front of the people of the county, and stipulated that after the prisoners escaped in the future, they were not allowed to be killed immediately if they were caught, and they must be interrogated by the people in the discipline inspection room and punished after confirming that they were correct.

In addition, all officials who engage in favoritism and irregularities will find out the extent of their crimes, convict them, and punish all the money they have obtained from embezzlement, but they will not be guilty of their families.

Since that incident, there have been very few escapes of prisoners on the construction site, and the guards have become stricter.

"Big brother, what do you want? Don't like eggs? ”

At this time, the head of the scout looked at the militia and said with a smile, and the militia laughed at this time: "This person doesn't like to eat boiled eggs." ”

Saying that, the militia leader knocked the egg on the spear shaft in his hand, peeled the skin as he walked, and peeked at the spy with his eyes, and the spy immediately greeted him with a smile, and the militiaman snorted coldly in his heart: "Dog spy." ”

Immediately after eating the eggs in small bites, the spy swallowed his saliva and asked with a smile, "Is the eldest brother delicious?" ”

"Uh-huh."

The militia nodded, and the leader of the spies smiled at this time: "Hehe, I haven't been willing to eat for a long time, by the way, big brother, where are we going?" ”

The militia ate eggs at this time and said indistinctly: "Reservoir." ”

"Reservoir?"

The spy looked at the militia with a puzzled expression, and the militia said at this time: "Well, all the victims who enter our Lantian County must first go to the reservoir to work for half a year, and after half a year, they will arrange shelter and farmland for you." ”

"Half a year!"

The spies' eyes widened, the rebels had all hit Baishui County, and they were about to attack Lantian County, and they were going to go back with confidential information, but now they were being escorted to the reservoir to work for half a year.

After half a year, the cucumber dishes are cold.

Thinking about the spy leader, he was a little anxious, his eyes looked around, looking for whether there was a possibility of escape, the militia looked at the spy leader's impatient appearance, and slowly swallowed the egg in his mouth and said: "Yes, the victims who come to Lantian County must first repair the reservoir for Lantian County and contribute to Lantian County, so that they can settle down, don't you know?" ”

The leader of the spies shook his head, and the militia said: "The victims in our neighborhood know about it, look at it, don't you communicate with people?" ”

When the leader of the spies heard this, he was a little anxious, and then looked at the militia and said, "Can we not go, and leave now?" ”
