The staff of the porridge shed walked simply, and the hungry and down-and-out man lying on the table was dumbfounded.

And some of the refugees who had just arrived here after receiving two food stamps also looked at each other. They didn't expect that the price of receiving an extra food stamp would be to spend the night hungry.

After the evening, it got dark quickly.

This season, the temperature after dark drops by at least ten degrees, which makes them dare not stay outside at all, including the down-and-out man, one by one can only cover their hungry stomachs and go back.

Early the next morning, the down-and-out man came to the soup kitchen.

However, soup kitchens do not start early in the morning.

After all, the refugees haven't received their food stamps yet, and it's useless for them to put out the porridge shed early.

In addition, if the time is too early, the temperature will be very low, which is very unfriendly to both refugees and staff.

The empty stomach showed that the down-and-out man had not slept peacefully this night, and the staff of the porridge shed had not yet been seen, and he was already waiting there with two food stamps.

Again, he's definitely not the only one.

Obviously, the person who had bad intentions yesterday and secretly received two food stamps could not be the only down-and-out man.

Time passed minute by minute, and the first group of refugees to receive food stamps had already arrived, but what those refugees did not expect was that there were already many people waiting there outside the soup kitchen.

This scene made them dumbfounded.

No, over at the ticket office, they are the first group of people in line, they have just arrived, how can these people be faster than them?

Just as they were thinking this, the staff of the porridge shed had already carried a large pot of boiled hot porridge in a cart, and the smell of food emanating from the cracks in the lid of the pot made the refugees who came later completely dispel their thoughts about this problem.

I just want to drink hot porridge.

After seeing the staff move the cauldron to the table, the down-and-out man who was the first in line couldn't wait to hand the food stamps in his hand to the staff along with the empty bowl.

After the staff took the food stamps, they lifted the lid of the pot, took the big spoon in their hands, and were about to scoop the porridge.

Seeing that a big spoonful of white porridge was about to fall into the bowl of the down-and-out man, but unexpectedly, at this moment, the action of the porridge staff was sudden.

"Huh?"

Then, with a light sigh, he actually put the spoonful of white porridge back into the pot.

"You're not right with this food stamp."

"Isn't that right? What's wrong?! ”

The down-and-out man, who had been hungry all day, looked extremely pale at this time, and just smelling the smell of the food had already made his stomach acid flood wildly.

"Your food stamp is from yesterday."

"What's today yesterday's? Your Majesty said that you can exchange hot porridge if you have food stamps, do you want to disobey Your Majesty's will?! ”

The hungry and depressed man directly moved Xia Qi out.

However, it was only exchanged for two sneers from the staff.

"Your Majesty's decree does say that you will exchange food stamps for porridge, but Your Majesty also said that the food stamps of the day can only be exchanged for hot porridge for the day, and they will be invalid after expiration!"

As he spoke, the staff pointed to a small string of numbers under the down-and-out man's food stamp.

"This food stamp is on the thirteenth of this month, and today is the fourteenth, in other words, this food stamp is a piece of waste paper!"

"Impossible, this can't be! There is no such thing in His Majesty's decree! ”

The down-and-out man looked unbelieving.

"Impossible?"

The staff looked at the down-and-out man with no pity in his eyes.

I saw one of them unhurriedly pointing to the notice board next to the porridge shed.

"On this notice board, the white paper and black letters are clearly written, and the bottom is also covered with His Majesty's jade seal, and the same notice is also posted at the ticket office, if you don't believe it, go see it yourself!"

Looking at the sworn appearance of the staff, the down-and-out man already believed in his heart, and the person directly sat down on the ground with a "poof", and his already pale face suddenly lost his blood.

As for the comparison notice or something, he doesn't know a single big word, how can he compare?

After all, judging from the current situation of Great Xia, if he was really literate, then he would not be so downtrodden.

In fact, this is also because Xia Qi deliberately concealed the rule that food stamps are only valid on the day in advance, in order to teach this small group of people a lesson.

Great Xia is now short of people everywhere, and for the sake of the population, Xia Qi did not hesitate to use the army to plunder the population in other places.

For this reason, the remuneration of each job has also been deliberately increased.

But in such a situation, there are still so many refugees.

Xia Qi can say that except for some of them who are forced to do it out of desperation, most of the rest are usually lazy and lazy.

They honestly only receive one food stamp every day and drink a bowl of hot porridge, but if they are not greedy enough, they will naturally suffer from it.

And all of a sudden, at the back of the line, the good people who also reacted, looked at the Diao people in front of them, and their eyes became unkind.

Why are these people faster than they are at the front of the ticket office?

I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but now that I think about it carefully, how can there be any reason why I can't react? They snuck two food stamps yesterday!

There was no need for the soldiers to maintain order on the porridge shack, and these Diao people had already become rats crossing the street at that moment, and they all fled in disgrace before the angry refugees couldn't help but want to beat people.

After learning about this, Xia Qi just smiled indifferently.

As the population of Great Xia increases, there can only be more and more people like this.

He considered himself diligent and loved the people, and the tax rate set was not high, but even so, occasionally some people would speak ill of him.

It's not about loyalty, it's just about personal selfishness.

I have to say that with Zhang Liang, the secretary general, to help him handle official business, there are a lot fewer documents in front of him every day.

After Xia Qi processed all the documents, he planned to invade other players and plunder supplies.

After all, after this village, there is no such shop.

However, the previous round of fighting with Bibab gave him a wake-up call.

This configuration that he has traveled many times, although it is a panacea, can basically play any lineup, but the movement speed is too weak, and once this weakness is caught by the place, it will fall into infinite passivity.

Thinking of Xia Qi here, he decisively raised the idea of joining a team of cavalry.

At present, there are two major types of troops in Daxia: light cavalry and archers, among them, the military expenses of an archer cavalry are 50 civilization points more expensive than that of light cavalry.

But this is not to say that the archers are better than the light cavalry.

The light cavalry pursues the ultimate mobility, so a piece of equipment, from head to toe, is lightly armed, in addition to the light armor on the body, the only weapon is the spear in the hand and a bronze dagger is not so much a bronze knife but a bronze dagger self-defense weapon.

But the cavalry archers are equipped with a lot of equipment, in addition to the spears used for melee charges, there are also long-range bloodletting guns, and the signature bows and arrows. At the same time, each archer carried at least two pots of arrows on his horseback.

The reason why the military expenses of the archers are more expensive than the light cavalry is that they are completely expensive in terms of equipment.

But at the price, the mobility of the archers naturally sacrificed a lot.

Xia Qi didn't plan to bring both types of cavalry units, because the military expenses for such a trip were too expensive.

As for the stupid idea that both types of cavalry units are less carried, he will never have it, and the number of troops determines the lethality of a cavalry team to a large extent.

Take the light cavalry as an example, the collective charge of a hundred light cavalry and the collective charge of two hundred light cavalry, this lethality is already two concepts.

It's the same with the archers, can a salvo from a hundred archers be compared to two hundred archers?

The cavalry is a type of troops, and the number of a single class must be piled up, so that the lethality can rise in a straight line.

Light cavalry with a little, archers with a little, that kind of practice of not going up or down, the final result will only be up and down.

After pondering for a while, Xia Qi decided to bring the archers. As a besieging party, cavalry is inherently useless in siege warfare. He led cavalry, mainly to defend against the opposing cavalry.

At this time, the archers are undoubtedly a good choice.

After thinking about it for a while, Xia Qi brought three hundred archers, and the rest were still the same as before.

It's just that in this way, the military expenditure for one expedition is nearly 300,000, although this military budget Xia Qi can afford, but it is inevitably painful.

Eventually, Xia Qi decided to reduce the number of elephant men.

In the face of huge military spending, we must learn to make trade-offs.

Players of this rank, except for those newly promoted players, other players spend one or two hundred thousand military expenses after an invasion battle, which is very normal.

However, this time he was only to plunder resources, and he didn't really fight to the death with the players on the other side.

After determining the configuration of troops, Xia Qi casually chose a player, and then chose to invade.
