Zhao Ming packed up five boxes of things, including plain fabrics, newly made quilt covers, a box of silk cotton, and some porcelain cups and other things.

Of course, there was also a box of money, and there was some money pressed in each box, and considering his father's generosity and chatter, he also pressed two silver cakes, which was simply very rich.

Zhao Hanzhang was so moved to receive this gift that she almost relieved herself and wanted to stay for a few more days, but considering that the group of people brought by Ji Yuan had not been arranged yet, and she was still waiting in Canyang at this time, she pressed the impulse and said with a touched face that she would often go home to see in the future.

In addition to Zhao Song, other families also gave gifts.

Because they knew that Zhao Hanzhang had lost their salute on the road, in addition to the lack of money at this time, other things were also missing, so they gave everything.

has a good relationship with Zhao Changyu, or reads Zhao Changyu's good, and he is very generous, even although Zhao Hu scolded and disliked Zhao Hanzhang who offended him for a while, he still asked people to send two boxes of things and a sum of money.

He also generously gave Zhao Hanzhang a few subordinates.

Zhao Hanzhang saw the subordinate who was tied with a rope and strung together, his forehead jumped slightly, "Seventh Uncle Ancestor, where did these people come from?" ”

"I bought it with money, it's still useful, I've checked it, I'm in good health, you lost so many people before, how can you do it with people who don't have anything to serve? These people have sent you. ”

Zhao Hanzhang's gaze fell on the rope that tied them, and the meaning was self-evident.

Zhao Hu felt that she had too many problems, and said indifferently: "I just bought it back, and I'm not very obedient, but it's good to train it for a few days, will you train your subordinates?" Why don't I give you another steward to train you? ”

Zhao Hanzhang refused to take care of the matter, and after a little thought, he accepted all these people, and opened his mouth, "Seventh Uncle Ancestor, how can you just send these few people?" The summer harvest is coming, and there is a shortage of people in the field, so if you want to send it, just give it to me along with their families. ”

Zhao Hu turned his head and asked his long-term entourage, "They still have family?" ”

There really is, although Zhao Hu just casually ordered to pick a few disobedient subordinates to give to Zhao Hanzhang, but the people below didn't dare to really pick only the disobedient subordinates to go over, and they also attached many conditions, such as disobedient, but there were family members in their hands.

Everyone knows that Zhao Hu and Zhao Hanzhang have a bad relationship, who knows what his purpose is at sending someone down at this time?

In the future, if he remembers this, he will use these people, and they will be able to please him, and maybe he will be rewarded.

Therefore, these people who have been picked up for a long time all have families, and there are quite a few family members.

Chang Sui didn't dare to deceive, bowed his head and said, "There are still some family members." ”

Zhao Hu didn't know what was going on, and when he saw Zhao Hanzhang asking for someone for him, he felt that he was being begged, and he was quite proud, so he waved his hand generously and said, "Okay, bring all their families and give them to my niece and granddaughter." ”

Long follow: ......

Zhao Hanzhang smiled at Zhao Hu first, "Thank you Seventh Uncle Ancestor," and then looked at Chang Sui with a smile and said, "Remember, it's all their relatives." ”

After a long time, he brought a group of people, most of whom had empty hands, and only a few carried a small baggage.

It's shabby, but ...... I can't stand the number of them.

Zhao Hudu's mouth opened wide in surprise.

He had picked out just eight people, four men and four women, but there were as many as twenty-one relatives.

Zhao Hu: ......

Zhao Hanzhang had already thanked with a smile, "Thank you, Seventh Uncle Ancestor." ”

Zhao Hu twitched his cheeks and pulled out a smile: "No need." ”

He turned around and was about to leave, when Zhao Hanzhang shouted from behind, "Seventh Uncle Ancestor, remember to make up all their deeds of sale to me." ”

Zhao Hu quickened his pace.

Zhao Hanzhang waited for him to leave, then looked at the twenty-nine people who had been sent, let people untie the rope, and asked, "How did you come to Zhao's Dock Fort?" ”

Several people looked at each other, and a thin young man said in a deep voice: "We were arrested and sold by soldiers. ”

"How much were you sold?"

Youth: "I was young, I had a lot of strength, and I was sold for three dollars. ”

Cheaper than a cow.

Zhao Hanzhang rubbed his forehead and asked, "The whole family has been arrested?" ”

"Last year, there was a drought in Yingchuan, and this year it still didn't rain too much, so we couldn't survive, so we wanted to come to Runan to join our relatives, and we were caught by soldiers and sent here not long after we went out."

Zhao Hanzhang understood that this situation was very common in this era, and she said: "This is Xiping, where are your relatives?" If you still want to go to your relatives, I can return the deed of sale to you, and you can take it and leave. ”

When the young man heard this, he fell silent, and after a while, he whispered, "I have to discuss it with my family." ”

Zhao Hanzhang waved them to discuss with their families, and said to Cheng Bo: "Let's leave early tomorrow morning, find a place to settle them down first." ”

Cheng Bo should go down.

Fu Tinghan was dumbfounded, and followed closely behind Zhao Hanzhang, "The soldiers arrested people to sell?" Why? ”

"For money, of course."

Fu Tinghan's face was a little ugly, "Do the government and the army still have credibility in this way?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang: "This is the Jin Dynasty, if the court and the army are credible, as my grandfather who is the former Zhongshu Ling, will he take in the displaced people on a large scale and cultivate the tribe in private?" ”

Fu Tinghan: ......

Zhao Hanzhang: "In the Central Plains, the most active armies that capture and sell people are all from the hands of the Eight Kings, and now the King of the East China Sea has a noble status and dominates the dynasty, and the generals under him are still keen on buying and selling people. ”

"Spend a small amount of money to buy people and then sell them, this is a relatively conscientious practice, many soldiers are following orders, directly on the official road to catch passing by homeless, even ordinary people, after tying up people to change places, this is a confirmed behavior in history, one of the great enemies of the Jin Dynasty, Shi Le, he has been captured and sold slaves."

Fu Tinghan pursed his lips, he didn't read enough books on literature and history, but he also knew Shi Le, he knew that this was a chaotic era, but he didn't expect it to be chaotic like this.

The imperial court and the army, which were supposed to protect the existence of ordinary people, have become the most direct perpetrators here.

"You let them go, what if you go out and meet the soldiers who capture them?"

"So I give them a choice." Zhao Hanzhang said: "Only they know their own hearts, what if they have someone they desperately want to meet?" Of course, if they want to stay, I will do everything I can to protect them. ”

Not only did Zhao Changyu leave her a large amount of land in the area of Shangcai Xiping, but she also changed so much from Zhao Zhongyu, she asked Zhao Song in the past two days, because in recent years, the heavens are not beautiful, and there are occasional homeless troops passing by, so there are a lot of tenants and long-term workers who have run away, and a lot of land has been left wasted.

She's short of people right now.

It should be said that there is a shortage of people in the entire Zhao's Dock Fort, just look at Zhao Hu's large number of buyers.
