It seems that this Second Master Song's face is really big, and what he said is so effective.

This Song family is really different from them, even if it falls to such a point, there are still people who buy the prestige and fame of the past.

Soon, the team that went into the town to procure was in place.

The Wen family sent the shrewd Wen Lao Er Wen Yan, and the Cao family was directly the boss of Cao, he didn't worry about handing over the money to anyone, and the best way was naturally for him to purchase it himself.

And the dozen or so scattered exiles didn't have such a thick family to go to the town to buy supplies, but they were more or less short of daily necessities, so they chose to hand over the money to a few messengers to help them buy it, anyway, there were not many things.

"Why can the Song family go to three people?"

When Boss Cao saw the Song family following the three people, he immediately expressed his dissatisfaction.

Xia Ning replied directly, "Didn't you hear what Team Leader Hu said clearly?" Each family in the exile team can send a representative, Song Shaoqin is the representative of the Song family, as for me and Mai Dong? We've been following the escorts, but we're not exiles.

This uncle doesn't see that you are very old, why is your memory so bad? It's also very problematic, do you understand it now? We're not breaking the rules, do you have any problems? ”

"Ling" Cao Lao choked, but because of Song Shaoqin beside him, he could only flick his sleeves angrily, turn around and ignore it.

Xia Ning smiled at Boss Cao's back, angry at you bad old man!

"Let's go!"

The group walked towards the town, and the rest camped in place to rest.

**

Two quarters of an hour later, the group arrived at the town of Sanxi.

However, looking at the mottled and cracked city wall, Xia Ning's curiosity suddenly dissipated by a third.

This town is too shabby, right?

The city gates are like this, so how good can the town be?

Either the town is very poor, or the parents here are greedy.

She thought she could see the lively market in the costume drama, but obviously the conditions in this Sanxi town are not very good.

"Let's go."

Song Shaoqin took La Xia Ning's hand and gestured.

"Huh? Are there no soldiers on duty at the gates? ”

Looking at the unobstructed city gate, there was not a single soldier to check or guard, Mai Dong muttered curiously.

"yes, why isn't there any?"

"Isn't that a dereliction of duty?"

"If a group of bandits come, won't they smash Huanglong?"

"It's so unbelievable!"

Not to mention that Mai Dong was puzzled, the four messengers who were arranged to procure were also very surprised, the world of Eastern Chu is well known, from large prefectures to small towns, as long as there is a city gate, soldiers must be arranged to be on duty.

This arrangement was also to prevent the enemy from raiding and injuring innocent people, and the city gate was an important gateway to the county and town, which was related to the ownership of a territory.

"Let's take a look at the town." Song Shaoqin began to signal.

"Okay."

So, the group stepped into the town of Sanxi.

It was noon at this time, and it was supposed to be the time when the town market was more lively, but what they saw at the moment was a cold scene, even if it was a rural town, it would never be so depressed, right? Not even a bit of pyrotechnics.

"Let's divide the mining and buy it, and meet here in half an hour! Don't forget the hour! One of the messengers explained to the men.

"Okay, we got it."

Wen Yan arched his hand to Song Shaoqin and the others, "Time is limited, then Second Master Song, I will take a step first, and I'll see you later." ”

"Well, please~" Song Shaoqin raised his hand and replied.

Boss Cao directly flicked his sleeves and hurriedly ran to the lively place in the town.

After everyone else left, Song Shaoqin whispered to Mai Dong to explain.

"The little one knows." Mai Dong's jaw responded.

Song Shaoqin turned to Xia Ning again, and said with a frank smile, "Ling Ning, give Mai Dong some silver." ”

"Oh good! How much do you need? Forget it, prepare more. ”

Xia Ning thought that Mai Dong was going to buy supplies, so she took out two silver tickets worth one hundred taels directly from the money bag and handed them to Mai Dong.

“.” Mai Dong looked at his master with an unspeakable face, Second Master, you haven't married your wife into the door yet, so calmly reach out to Miss Xia to ask for silver?

This soft rice is so straightforward, and only his second master is the only one.

"Thank you, madam, the little one went."

After Mai Dong also left, Song Shaoqin said to Xia Ning, "Let's go, let's go shopping too." ”

This town certainly can't be compared with the modern bustling streets, but it has a bit of a quaint atmosphere in this town, which is the charm of the years that modern streets do not have.

"Why are so many shops closed? This Three Creeks town is too decayed, right? ”

Xia Ning couldn't help frowning when she looked at the many shops on both sides of the street with closed doors.

"Would you like to take a look at the store?"

Song Shaoqin also felt that this town was too devastation, but instead thought that it was just a remote town, and he couldn't have too high requirements for it.

"Don't worry, let's take a walk around this town first."

Xia Ning originally wanted to taste the ancient street food, but there was no shadow of a small stall on the street at a glance.

This Sanxi Town is really a small town, there is only one street in the whole town, and it takes less than twenty minutes to walk from the beginning to the end.

"Huh? Why so many people? ”

When passing by an alley, Xia Ning suddenly found a ruined temple in the alley, and there were many people sitting or lying in the ruined temple, their clothes were ragged, their faces were dirty, and they looked like beggars.

"How can there be so many beggars in a small town?"

In this regard, Xia Ning felt a little puzzled, these people looked dull and stared, as if they had no hope.

But after she took a closer look, she found that there were men and women, old and young, and most of them were still next to each other in twos and threes, feeling like a family.

Something is obviously wrong with this, how can a family be reduced to a beggar on the street?

"Not beggars, they're outcasts."

Song Shaoqin's face was slightly gloomy, and his gaze at the broken temple was even more obscure.

"Outcasts?"

Hearing this, Xia Ning looked at Song Shaoqin with a slight surprise, so the suspicion in her heart was right, these people were really not beggars.

Although she is not an ancient, she also knows some ancient history, once there is a large number of displaced people in this people, it must have suffered natural and man-made disasters, which will cause them to leave their homeland and go into exile, so that they have no place to return.

I just don't know if these people are caused by natural disasters or man-made disasters.

"Looks like something must have happened to the neighborhood." Song Shaoqin frowned slightly, and couldn't help but think of the unguarded town gate, and even the robbers that happened some time ago.
