Chapter 153: Internal Circulation
"This is ......"
"In the Lower Ash, this is my wife." Xiao Ember said.
Su Ying felt that he introduced himself and introduced himself, and the latter sentence seemed a bit redundant?
"Xiao Yan...... "Murong De's pale brows twisted, and his eyes showed a sudden look, "I didn't expect to meet His Royal Highness the King of Qi of the Chu State here." β
"Not anymore."
Murong De didn't ask the reason, the prince of a country would go to the northern wilderness, it could only be exiled, the prince was exiled, it was not a small crime, he didn't need to ask carefully to offend people.
"If you don't dislike it, let's go and sit down."
Su Ying wanted to learn some information about the West District from his side, so he didn't refuse.
Murong De's house was not on this side, but at an intersection behind the liquor store, and it was a relatively clean-looking wooden house.
Murong De invited them in.
The dΓ©cor of the wooden house is very simple, just a hall and a bedroom, and there are only tables, chairs and cabinets in it.
"Just give up the simplicity, and don't dislike it."
"When you get to this ghost place, it's enough to get Uncle Murong a room like this."
Murong De took a few clean porcelain bowls and poured water for them.
"Yes, I spent a lot of effort to get a room like mine before." Murong De slowly told them about his experience.
He had also been exiled from the South, and in terms of time, he had come a few months earlier than they had come.
"At that time, I just arrived, and it was not easy to settle in other places, so I was brought here, and there was a restaurant called Dustwind before, and it was said that the newcomers had meat to eat, and someone brought me over, but I saw that there was something wrong with the meat, so I didn't eat it, and made an excuse to leave."
"Oh? Uncle Murong also found out that there was something wrong with those meats? β
Murong De nodded, "I've been a cook for so many years, and I've never seen any meat, that meat looks like beef at first glance, but if you look closely, you can find that it's actually human meat, and I don't eat that thing." β
"That's right."
"Later, the Dusty Wind Restaurant suddenly collapsed, and those strange people in the West District were also taken away, and the West District was a little more stable, but this place has been eroded by those people for many years, and it is rotten in the bones, and those who are a little capable and smart have already run away, and the rest are some who can't be helped, just stay and wait for death."
"Why doesn't Uncle leave?"
"Me?" Murong De shook his head, "I'm alone, lonely, what's the matter whether I'm dead or alive?" β
Su Ying disagreed with this: "This person will always have the meaning of his existence in his life, and there is no need to be so pessimistic." β
Murong De smiled and looked at He Shouyi, "I really have no regrets about seeing my old friend again before I die." β
"You old boy, when did you become a depressed old man, Mrs. brought us here today, just to dig up the maggots of the bones in the western district, even if it is in the northern wilderness, we have to live well."
"That's right." Su Ying took out a large bottle of potion from his body, "This medicine can completely cure those people's diseases, it is colorless and tasteless, it can be dissolved in any liquid, each vat of wine, only ten drops need to be put in, I hope Uncle Murong can let those people drink this medicine." β
Murong De looked at the medicine bottle on the table with some surprise, and looked at the firmness in Su Ying's eyes, only then did he really believe that what she said yesterday was not a joke.
"Madam, you have to think clearly, even if these people are in good health, they may still not be able to help them."
"If you can't lift it up, throw it out, the Tiger Camp doesn't need this kind of waste."
Murong De looked at the determination in Su Ying's eyes and laughed, "Okay, I'll put this medicine in the wine and let those drunkards drink it." β
"Each sick person has a cup at most, and if there are not enough people, let Uncle He stay and help you."
He Shouyi wanted to refuse, there was still a large family waiting for him to eat.
Su Ying said, "Uncle, don't worry, Mother Zhao is here." β
He Shouyi thought about it and didn't refuse, after all, he also wanted to catch up with his old friend, "Okay, don't worry, madam, I will definitely handle this matter." β
"Okay."
Su Ying explained a few more words to Uncle He, and then walked out of the West District with Xiao Yan.
In the next few days, He Shouyi and Murong De brewed wine day and night, thanks to Murong De's previous inventory, otherwise it would not be enough at all.
In order to let those who were sick drink medicinal wine, Murong De directly lowered the price to only need a copper plate to buy a Gu, but each person only limited one copy, and more was not sold, and for a while, the wine store was crowded with people.
In order to avoid conflicts, Xiao Ember brought people over the next day to maintain order.
"Jiang Yang, you take a team of people to do account registration." It is to record the number of people in each household, so as to count the number of people in the entire West District, after all, no one can answer how many people there are in the West District so far.
Xiao Shen spent three days assisting Murong De in distributing all the medicines, ensuring that everyone with physical problems had drunk the medicines.
Jiang Yang also led people to make a count of the number of people in the western district, there were about 3,000 people in total, half of them were adult men, less than 300 children, and the rest were women.
These days, Chu Yun also temporarily stopped classes for the children, and began to write down the content of the laws he remembered wholeheartedly.
Su Ying sat on the side, looking at the laws written by Chu Yun, according to the situation of this era, they were basically very reasonable, and if she felt that something was wrong, she would discuss it with Chu Yun and finally decide whether to revise it.
After Chu Yun filled another page, he was so tired that he put down the pen and turned his elbow, looked at Su Ying who was sitting on the side, and said: "What's the use of just having rules, if those people can't even fill their most basic stomachs, they are afraid that they will do things that violate the rules even if they are desperate." β
Su Ying frowned when she heard this, this is also what she is thinking about these days.
If she wants to put this place in order, it must make them willing to obey, although her fists are hard enough to suppress them, but this is not a long-term solution after all.
"What's your solution?"
Chu Yun sometimes admires Su Ying, it is generally difficult for a person with hard power like her to listen to other people's opinions, but he found that she is a little good, as long as it is an area that she is not good at, she can actively listen to other people's proposals.
"From the perspective of human nature, leaving aside a very small minority, most people want to live a stable life."
"Yes."
"In the past, when the three countries were still open, we could still find a way to get something to sell in exchange for the things we wanted, but now that the three countries are closed, we have no hope of circulation, and for today's plan, what we can do is the internal circulation."
"Go on."
