Most of these people are people from some families in nearby counties and towns, not only because they are afraid that the enemy army will come in again and let their generations of hard work be burned, but they are also afraid that when the army is insufficient, they will catch strong men in this vicinity and force them to enlist in the army.

They all have children and grandchildren in the prime of life, although they don't want to go to war and can pay money in exchange for military salaries, but it is not a small amount, if they meet the greedy conscription officials, they may even go bankrupt.

Therefore, they are also guarding against this, and are ready to live in a different place while the war has not yet started.

Anyway, their assets are still there, and it is not difficult to live in another place.

Moreover, they are not like those landlords and squires, who have a lot of land in their family property, and if they want to leave, they will be giving up all their money.

At most, they will lose a few shops, the northwest side is not prosperous, the shops are not worth a few dollars, they have silver in their hands, and they may be better off if they go to other places, so they do not hesitate to go.

It is also because of this that there is no large-scale migration here, so before Qian Yan thought that the people here were accustomed to war and could be indifferent.

It's just that because there are more people left, it's not easy to find.

With my divine sense, I have probably seen that the luggage brought by these people is relatively light, and most of the silver money has been exchanged for gold and silver tickets, which are easy to carry.

There are basically no fragile items in the house, and the biggest thing is the box that holds the things.

However, Qian Yan felt that they were lucky to be able to walk to this city safely, because it was close to the border, and in order to send supplies to the border defenders in a timely and safe manner, the bandits on the way from Qinzhou Mansion to the border were all wiped out, so they could walk here so safely.

After leaving Qinzhou Mansion, it is not necessarily, and there may not be anyone on the road between Qinzhou and other prefectures and cities to clear out bandits, and even the government in many places will even collude with bandits.

Although Qian Yan has not met her here, she can see this in the TV series she has seen before, and they all say that art comes from life, and she thinks that it may not be made up.

So she decided to repair in Fucheng for a few more days, and the province met these people on the road, in case she met robbers, and the other party robbed her together, then she didn't want to make a move.

Of course, if she can't avoid it, she really happens to meet it, and she won't just sit idly by.

It's just that there is no need to go up now, it is best to have less trouble.

Because there were people all around, they didn't take out the spirit stone to illuminate it, but lit the oil lamp and put it on the small table in the carriage.

wiped her face with a wet cloth towel for the well-fed rich man, and then let the ugly ugly go directly into the space, she was too lazy to go out and wash.

The money rubbed coquettishly on her hand, and Qian Yan reached out and hugged her round body into her arms and rubbed it.

Because the space in the carriage is limited, when it is time to sleep, the charcoal stove should also be put away, otherwise it will be placed on the side for fear of burning the fur hanging next to it, and there is no way to lie down in the middle.

This small table with oil lamps can be erected and poked aside, but since there is space, there is no need to occupy space outside, so even the table with oil lamps is put away.

Because there were too many people outside, they did not remove the bear from the frame of the carriage, nor did they let it support the carriage all the time, but when the position was chosen, a thick log was propped under the wheel, so that the weight in front of the carriage would not weigh on the bear.

It's just that it's tied to the reins, and there's no way to move freely.

After collecting the charcoal stove and table, she hung another layer of sheepskin inside the door curtain, so that she could block the cold outside, and the direction of the car entrance was facing southeast, and the wind could not blow.

Let Chou Chou take out a thick sheepskin quilt and cover the three of them, she lay on her back, with Qian in her arms on her left and Chou Chou on her right, plus the residual temperature left by the charcoal stove before, she didn't feel cold at all, and fell asleep directly.

She is not afraid of any bad intentions of those people outside, anyway, there are ugliness and money, and they can always protect her.

I don't know if it's close to the city, the reason why there are soldiers guarding the city walking back and forth on the upper floor of the city, the people outside are very honest this night, and everyone slept peacefully until the next morning.

Of course, there is probably only one who sleeps well, except for some children who don't know the world and the old people who can't stand it, most of the rest of the people keep adding firewood to the fire all night.

It was already below zero this night, and letting the fire go out could freeze people to death.

There are also people who are clever and have parked their ox carts and wagons at the vents, and fenced off that part of their house with mats or some furs, and slept around the fire.

Those who don't have these can only rely on the fire to keep warm, and these people are already sneezing in the morning, after all, if you don't block the wind, even if there is a fire, it won't matter.

The fire can only ensure the temperature of one side, and there is always one side with its back to the fire, and it is estimated that there are many people who suffer from the cold this night.

Two of them also had carriages with carriages, but most of them had stuff in them, so there was no way to sleep.

The other is a large family, at most, they let the children sleep in it, and the adults can't hold it, but the problem is that they can't light a charcoal stove inside, and they may not be warm by the fire outside.

So it's still the most comfortable to sleep on.

Because it was late in the morning, it was still dark, but the city gate had already been opened, and the first time I didn't sleep that night, I packed up my things, and the sound of talking and activity woke up Qian Yan directly.

She also cleaned up meaningfully, and hurried to the city gate to line up.

She was going to go find a place to eat something early as soon as she entered the city, and when she entered the city, she couldn't cook by herself, although there were some lambs and baked cakes in the space, but she still wanted to drink some thin food early in the morning, so she could only see if there was any kind of breakfast shop in the city.

Because Tilt Yan did not have to pack up a lot of things, and also to put out the fire, just put away the two sticks supporting the wheels, and after finding that he could move, the big bear hissed softly towards the sky, and then spread his hooves and ran towards the city gate, and when they reached the gate, they were relatively far ahead.

There weren't many people in front of her, only six or seven, all of them were people with small populations carrying burdens or pushing wheelbarrows, and two of them came in the morning, probably from the neighborhood.

Soon it was her turn, she briefly asked the destination, checked the inside of the carriage, paid the entrance fee, and the officers and soldiers guarding the city were happily released.

When I entered the city, I couldn't see the road ahead for a while because it was still dark.

Thinking of the torch she had just seen at the city gate, she also asked Chou Chou to take out one, which they had made with animal fat before, which was used to light it when they were preparing to rush to the night, and it was just right to use it at this time.

As soon as the torches were lit, she found that the people who were walking in front of her had gone far away, and it seemed that they were accustomed to hurrying in the dark.

When they entered the inner city, they went in other directions, mostly to the south.

Qian Yan had probed with her divine sense before, and knew that this Qinzhou City had a similar layout to other prefectures, and the shops were also on the east side of the city.

Selling some agricultural products or something is also in Nancheng, and it feels like an unwritten rule, and it's pretty much the same.

However, there are still some differences, that is, the West City and the North City are the opposite of other cities, she came in from the West City Gate, and did not see the office locations such as the government office, the outer city is the courtyard of some officers and soldiers or military households, and the inner city is the courtyard of some soldiers.

It seems that the west side is a place where the garrison is stationed, and she also subconsciously poked towards the largest and most luxurious courtyard, wanting to see if Li Hao was there.

The Li family has a relatively deep foundation, and it was a general before, so even if the dynasty changes, it should be able to garrison one side.

After all, Vice General Wang and Li Hao's guards both have official positions, so he can't be the master and get worse and worse.

Of course, this is not absolute, in case their Li family is not optimistic about the new dynasty and opposes resistance to the end, they may be dismissed with a grudge.

It's a pity that she didn't see any acquaintances in that mansion.

The mansion is indeed a garrison mansion, and the plaque at the door says that if the people inside are the Li family, it is not very clear to Qian Yan.

She had only seen Li Hao and Vice General Wang and his two guards, and she had not seen other Li family members, not even his second brother.

I was taken care of by someone when I was in Handcheng before, although the other party told his subordinates to take care of her, and when I went to thank her, no one was there, so I didn't see it.

Since she didn't see it, Qian Yan didn't bother, and drove the carriage to continue eastward, and she was not allowed to stay casually here.

From time to time, officers and soldiers will patrol on the road, and those who stop will come forward to inquire about it, and those who are suspicious will be taken away.

Walking to the intersection in the center of the city, the sky was already white, and it was a little cloudy.

She didn't put out her torch for the time being, and looked at the intersection, and there were gradually pedestrians in other directions, but there were not many of them.

Instead of continuing to the east, she turned right to the south, where she had just used her sense to find a shop that had opened, which happened to be an early shop.

This shop is very close to the crossroads, and it will be there after a while, and the torch is rubbed on the ground, and the fire will be extinguished, and when there is no spark on it, it will pretend to be put in the basket at the back, but in fact, it will let the ugly and ugly into the space.

There are a few oil lamps lit in the shop, and although they are not very bright, you can see things clearly.

A middle-aged woman walked out from behind the counter and greeted Qianyan, "Girl, do you want breakfast?" We have millet porridge, sorghum porridge, baked cakes, and steamed buns in our shop, you see what to use. ”

Qian Yan was happy when she heard that there were steamed buns, this is really good, she also said that she wanted to eat steamed buns before, isn't this there.

First, I asked, "What is the filling of the buns?" ”

The woman introduced, "There are radish fillings and cabbage fillings." There are also mutton fillings, mutton and radish fillings, and mutton and cabbage fillings.

Qian Yan didn't think about it and said: "Two buns, and then a bowl of millet porridge." ”

Just now she asked Chou Chou what she wanted to eat, Chou Chou didn't want to drink porridge, but wanted to taste the taste of steamed buns, so she ordered so much.

When the bun was served, she said to the woman, "Bring me twenty steamed buns, and I'll pack them and take them away after eating them in a while." ”

The woman didn't expect that this was still a big customer, because Qian Yan was the first customer, and the number of steamed buns was still enough, but there was something wrong with this packaging, and she didn't have anything to pack here.

They only have oil paper in the store, and it's okay to wrap one or two steamed buns, but twenty of them is really no choice.

Qian Yan saw that her face was embarrassed, and after asking what the reason was, she smiled and said: "This is not embarrassing, you can help me count it and put it away first, I have a basket specially used to hold dry food in my carriage." ”

When the woman heard this, she immediately smiled, "That feeling is good, then I will help the girl heat the steamed bun, and it will be cold when she leaves." ”

Tilt Yan nodded and thanked her, this is the best, and it will still be hot when you put it in the space and take it out.

When she sat at the table, she deliberately sat with her back to the direction of the counter, and when the proprietress returned to the counter, she divided a few buns with Chouchou under cover, and drank her big bowl of porridge.

Qian Yan felt that the taste of this bun was average, not very delicious, at least it could not be compared with the buns of later generations, although the materials were real, but the seasoning was still worse, especially the mutton radish and cabbage filling, to be honest, it was a little greasy, and the smell was not removed, so she didn't plan to pack the buns.

When she went to check out, in the opinion of the proprietress, this girl was really able to eat, she should be hungry, and it didn't take long to eat eight big buns and a big bowl of porridge.

Although she was surprised, she didn't ask her much about it, because there was another guest coming to the door behind her.

Tilt Yan paid the money, went to the car and got the basket back, it was one of the baked cakes before, and the baked cakes were empty after eating.

Let the proprietress put a few pieces of oil paper in the basket, and then put the steamed buns in, this steamed bun is very affordable, two pennies, very big, twenty steamed buns are filled with most of the basket, you must know that this basket can be loaded with dozens of large baked cakes before.

Quickly put the steaming basket into the carriage, and the next moment let the ugly and ugly into the space.

It was already dawn outside, and Qian Yan drove the carriage to the intersection again, this time walking directly to the east.

I went to find an inn first, she picked a very large inn, although it is not the largest one in the city, it should be in the top three, it covers a large area, the room is clean and comfortable, and the service attitude is good.

These are what she found out with her divine sense when she was having breakfast, and she didn't choose the biggest inn not to save money, but because the service attitude of the junior and the shopkeeper there was not good, and she also said bad things about the guests behind her back, which Qian Yan didn't like very much.
