The people sent by the head of the Ministry of Agriculture soon arrived in the next county town.

Lin Bin secretly followed them all the way, this county seat is obviously not large, but it is also lively, as soon as the person in charge of the Ministry of Agriculture approached the county seat, the speed slowed down.

They began to observe for refugees along the way, and only a few could be seen along the way, until outside the city, when they gradually increased.

Lin Bin followed them to the gate of the county seat.

Before entering the city, I saw a bunch of refugees gathered outside the city, and the people of the Ministry of Agriculture showed joy on their faces, and the leader waved his big hand:

"Let's go, go up and ask."

At the sound of an order, his subordinates surrounded him.

Lin Bin hid in the shadows, watched their actions coldly, and saw that they seemed to have found their target, so they all surrounded them, and their eyes fell on the refugees who were surrounded again.

Most of these refugees were yellow-skinned, their clothes were tattered, and they had obviously suffered a lot, and when they saw the men of the Ministry of Agriculture, they all became nervous, leaning against each other and huddled together, looking at everyone hesitantly.

"Are you refugees from the north?"

The man in charge of the Ministry of Agriculture asked, looking condescendingly at the refugees.

Seeing that they were arrogant and arrogant, the refugees mistakenly thought that they were also from the government, so they shrank and nodded, and replied in a low voice:

"My lord, the grass people fled from the north."

"Hmm."

The leader snorted from his nose and his gaze swept over everyone's faces.

When three or four people saw him looking over, they subconsciously lowered their heads and hid.

The subordinates of the chief secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture have never had a good face for these refugees, and they don't look at them squarely, so naturally they didn't find anything abnormal, but Lin Bin saw it clearly.

Those people, if he was not mistaken, weren't they the refugees who had escaped from Ye Hao?

Lin Bin had the ability to never forget, he changed to a closer place, pretended to pass by unintentionally, and glanced at it lightly, sure enough, these were the people who left a few days ago.

It turned out that they had all come here, Lin Bin retracted his gaze, found a stall near the city gate, and listened to the movement over there while watching.

Lin Bin vaguely heard what they were saying, "there are too many people", "I can't take them away", etc., and from time to time he glanced at the refugees with a slight disdain in his eyes.

These men originally wanted to violently arrest the refugees and return them to the mission. After all, people have fled before, and it is not easy to do the work, if there are not many refugees here, then there are even fewer people who are willing to follow them over, and when the time comes, they will not be able to get together, not to mention being scolded, and they will have to come again, so if they want to bring enough people at one time, they can only arrest people violently.

"Fortunately, there are a lot of refugees here, just fool a few back, and you should be able to make a difference."

Someone said with a big grin.

This group of people is not like officers and soldiers, they are trained and have rules, and most of them think like this.

The leader was no exception, he cleared his throat, turned to the refugees and said bluntly:

"We have a place to receive you, will you come with us?"

These refugees thought they were from the government and were in awe, but when they heard their words so bluntly, they mistakenly thought that it was an order from the government.

They stayed outside the city, and their lives were not easy, and the government had not taken care of them these days, and when they heard this, they were overjoyed, and hurriedly asked:

"My lord, are you here to settle us?"

"Sort of."

The leader said vaguely.

The refugees all thought that this was proof that they were really being found by the government, and they were all very excited.

The sky has eyes, and finally someone will take care of them.

"Me! I'll go with the adults!"

One of the refugees shouted first, and this man was afraid that they would not see it, so he raised his hand and squeezed forward, and in a few strokes he squeezed in front of the leader, and said eagerly:

"My lord, the grass people are willing to go with you!"

"Okay, okay."

The leader was satisfied, and raised his voice again and asked:

"Is anyone else going with us?"

Someone took the lead, and everyone naturally no longer hesitated, and immediately shouted one after another:

"I'm willing to go with the adults!"

"The grass people are willing!"

"My lord, and me, I am willing to go with you!"

The refugees rushed forward one after another, squeezing the leader to a stagger.

"Squeeze what, squeeze!"

The leader was so angry that his face was flushed, and as soon as he stood firm, he shouted:

"If you squeeze any more, no one will go!"

The words were so devastating that the refugees suddenly fell silent, as if they had done something wrong, and looked at each other weakly.

Lin Bin observed them out of the corner of his eye, taking in the farce to the fullest.

These refugees are a little desperate, and when they see a straw, they cling to it and climb up, whether it's true or not. Lin Bin didn't have an opinion on this, what he cared about was the few people who were mixed in with the refugees, who had obviously escaped from the main secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture, but at this time they also actively raised their hands and wanted to go along.

Lin Bin thought for a while and figured out the reason.

When the house was built before, the master of the Ministry of Agriculture did not dare to make a small move in front of Xie Yunshu and Ye Hao, so he brought the officers and soldiers in the city, but now these are the subordinates of the master of the Ministry of Agriculture who are privately raised, and they have not appeared on the wasteland before.

These escaped refugees had never seen these subordinates, and they had heard such fierce competition from other refugees, so they assumed that the other refugees had seen them and knew that they were from the government.

Taken together, the reaction of these fleeing refugees is now well understood.

While Lin Bin was thinking, the subordinates of the Ministry of Agriculture over there were also thinking.

I thought that there were few people and I had to arrest people by force, but I didn't expect that there would be too many people. Before they came out, the head of the Ministry of Agriculture set the number of people for them, telling them to "be sure to bring back the corresponding number, and if it is not enough, go to the neighborhood to find it."

The situation is now beyond their expectations.

"What should I do?"

The leader's brows furrowed into a Sichuan character.

"Why don't you just take a few with you?"

"Don't!"

Someone among his men stopped him.

"Before I came out, my lord explained that the people we want to bring are about the same as the people who ran away in the first place, not only the number of people, but also the gender should be as similar as possible."

That's right, the head of the Ministry of Agriculture knows that if you find some people at random, it will be easy to be discovered by Ye Hao and Xie Yunshu, and the best thing should be to bring back the same number and gender, even if Ye Hao is smart, it is impossible for everyone to write it down, and if you see the same people and the same proportion, you should be relieved.

"What should I do then?"

The leader asked in a rough voice, looking already a little impatient.

"I chose people to take them and left directly, so I told them that this was the first batch."

The man gave a very simple answer.

The leader didn't think about it, but thought it was feasible, and said to the refugees who were looking forward to it:

"This time, we will only bring the first batch of people, and the people we will point out will come with us later, you know?"

"Got it."

When the refugees heard that this was the first batch, they became nervous, for fear that they would be screened.

The subordinates of the chief secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture asked these refugees to line up, and then selected them one by one, and those who were selected were very happy, but those who were not selected looked distressed and shrank back.

Lin Bin pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled coldly, this is a good idea for the master book of the Ministry of Agriculture.

The selection was quickly finished, and some refugees wanted to blend in with the team, so they quietly approached their side, but were blocked by their men again.

The leader was indifferent to the pleas, and when he saw that he had finished chosen, he turned around and prepared to leave with the people.

"Hey, do you want to buy it? If you don't buy it, stand aside, don't block here, block my business!"

Lin Bin kept looking at that side from the corner of his eye, this small one in front of him

But the vendor was not happy, and the business outside the city was not easy to do, and this man did not buy anything and wanted to block his money, so he shouted and drove people away.

"Oh, oh! I'm sorry."

Lin Bin came back to his senses, hurriedly put down the things he was holding, apologized, and stepped aside.

There was not much movement from them, and the people over there were busy shouting and drinking from the refugees, but they didn't hear them, and hurried away with the people.

Lin Bin didn't go along.

When their figures completely disappeared from view, Lin Bin dusted off his clothes and pretended to walk towards the refugees unintentionally.

"Oops!"

Lin Bin pretended to bump into a refugee's shoulder and hurriedly apologized.

"I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention just now, did I bump into you?"

The refugee was a little frightened by his gesture, and hurriedly said:

"It's okay, it's okay."

"That's fine."

Lin Bin nodded, his gaze falling on the refugee's clothes again.

"What are you...... From the north?"

The refugee gathered some tattered clothes and sighed deeply:

"Yes, there was a war in the north, and we fled to Lingnan together, alas......

Lin Bin already knew this, and he pretended to hear it for the first time, and sighed:

"The world is difficult, by the way, why are you staying outside this city, because the city won't let you in?"

Lin Bin thought that the county town here would not let them enter the city, but those refugees all shook their heads.

"Not really, we've all been in the city."

Lin Bin was stunned, this answer was a little unexpected, he thought about it and decided that it would be faster to ask directly.

"Since you've all been in the city, why are you still outside the city?"

"Well, you don't know."

The refugees had sad faces and vented their bitterness with him.

"On the way we came, several county towns were not allowed to enter, and only when we arrived at this county town did they agree to let us in."

Lin Bin knew that this was referring to their side, so he didn't interject, so he waited patiently for them to say.

"We originally thought that the county town here was kind, and we were pitiful, so we let us in, but kindness is kindness, but entering the city is a different situation."

"What do you mean by that?"

Lin Bin knew that he was going to get to the point, so he hurriedly asked.

The refugees took a deep breath as they remembered their joy at being allowed into the city.

At that time, they thought that they could finally find a place to stay, so they flocked into the city, thinking that the government would make some arrangements for them in the city, but when they entered the city, they found that there was nothing.

Not only that, but the people in the city especially rejected them as outsiders, saying that they were uneducated vagabonds, who were lazy and lazy all day long, and made a mess in the city.

"We entered the city, but the people of the city treated us as outsiders and rejected us unusually much."

The refugees also went to find a job, but there were very few places willing to take them in, only one or two people found a job, and most of them went to find work, and when they saw their clothes, they knew that they were refugees and immediately kicked them out.

The refugees wiped away tears.

"It's not that we don't want to do it, everyone has hands and feet, and we used to be a hardworking person in the north, and we don't ask for much money, as long as we have something to eat, it's enough, but there is really no one in this city who is willing to take us in to work."

"There's no way to live in the city, it's hard."

The refugees shook their heads.

"The people in the city can't get used to us, they want to drive us out all the time, and they don't take us anywhere else, so we have no choice but to stay outside the city."
