"After I go back, I'll sort out the achievements made by Inhumans in various fields."

Ren Pingsheng said to the scribe.

"Yes!"

The scribe hurriedly agreed.

As an attaché, he is a section chief of the Zhongshuge Secretariat, and on weekdays, he can only receive tasks from Xiaowan and Wangshu, Siqi, and Qingyin, but this time he received the task directly from the prince, and he was pleasantly surprised.

Once it is done, there is a possibility that Jane will be in the emperor's heart, and if it is released in the future, it will be able to rise to prominence!

With his excitement, the scribe got out of the car and ran back to the carriage that belonged to him.

The tunnel was very long, and the sound of people talking outside, the sound of horses' hooves trampling the ground, echoed in this tunnel.

And because there is no ventilation equipment, the air circulation in the tunnel is slow, and it looks a little dull.

There is no problem with the waterproofing, the walls around the tunnel are dry and there are no water stains penetrating in.

"The carriages all walked against the marked area on the road, so be careful not to collide. Horse manure pockets are all brought, and whoever falls to the ground will be fined 1 tael! ”

In the tunnels, there are also patrolling people.

These people are responsible for supervising traffic on the road, lighting the gas lamps on the retaining walls, and so on.

After about twenty minutes, I finally saw the light coming from the front of the tunnel.

Ren Pingsheng could clearly hear the relief of many people around him, obviously under a big river, such a deep and closed environment, which made their hearts bear a lot of burden.

Perhaps, it will take a few more walks to get used to it before you can overcome this fear.

"Wow!"

As I came out of the exit and climbed up the gentle slope, I heard an exclamation from outside.

Xiao Wan opened the curtains and saw many pedestrians outside, looking up in the direction of the river.

She also turned her head to look in the direction of the blue Yangtze River, and just saw a big ship passing right above them, and on the big ship full of sails, there were also many people gathered on the deck, looking at the road below that crossed from the bottom and were amazed.

"This fleet belongs to Zhaozhou?"

Ren Pingsheng saw a series of seven or eight big boats on it, with flags hanging on them, and a big "flower" word was fierce in the wind.

The Hua family, if there is such a battle in the south, it is Zhaozhou Hua.

"The Zhaozhou Hua family is engaged in the porcelain business, and almost every quarter, a fleet of ships will pass through the Blue Yangtze River, and then twist and transfer to Dongyang County, and then be transported to the East and South Seas through Zheng Shaoguan to sell."

Xiao Wan said.

"That's still a big customer."

Ren Pingsheng said with a smile.

Whether it is passing through the Blue Yangtze River or carrying out customs declaration and distribution of goods at the wharf of Dongyang County, it is necessary to pay a considerable amount of tariffs to the government, which is of course a big customer.

Here, the convoy paid the toll for crossing the river according to the vehicle, ten cents for a carriage and two cents for a horse or bicycle.

For those who do not have horse-drawn carriages, there is no charge for the common people and small traders who carry them on their shoulders, which can be regarded as a kind of protection and support for them.

Ren Pingsheng saw those who came from the underwater tunnel, carrying large and small burdens, most of them were young people between their teens and twenties.

And among these people, there are also skinny skinny people who walk staggeringly.

These people immediately reminded Ren Pingsheng of the refugees who were common in Qingcheng Town.

The characteristics of the refugees are very obvious, both physically and temperamentally, and they are incompatible with the people of Wuzhou. However, it is also different from the refugees that Ren Pingsheng had seen in Qingcheng before, there was no numbness in the eyes of these refugees, but a strong yearning for life and expectations for the future.

When I got on the road again, I saw many of these refugees along the way.

When passing by Qiancun County, Ren Pingsheng saw that on the outside of the highway outside Qiancun County, dozens of cauldrons were set up, and porridge was boiling over low heat inside.

"Stop!"

Ren Pingsheng shouted and got out of the car.

On weekdays, I stay in the palace, and listen to some important things, or things that I am interested in.

If you don't come out to take a look, Ren Pingsheng didn't know that the civil engineering department of the other world was inhuman, and he actually embarked on the path of the civil engineering brother.

I don't know where so many refugees and displaced people have poured in.

I don't know what changes are profoundly affecting the people.

"The porridge is well cooked."

As soon as Ren Pingsheng got out of the car, the rear attaché got out of the car and followed Ren Pingsheng.

When the official who cooked porridge saw this battle, he was immediately startled, and he didn't know which official came out to pay a private visit.

Hearing Ren Pingsheng's praise, he nodded again and again and said: "It was arranged by Dean Lu of our Wangjiang County Welfare Home, and the cooked corn porridge was thickened, so that the displaced people from Huanhua County could be fed. ”

Not only the polenta, but also a lot of sweet potato pieces in the porridge, which makes this polenta have a strong sweet taste.

"Wuzhou is so good!"

"Long live King Qi! Banzai! Hooray! ”

"Master, can you give me another bowl?"

"You Wuzhou people are so happy!"

The homeless people in line received bowls one by one, made porridge, and some cried while eating.

Next to the soup kitchen, there was supposed to be a forest, but at this time the forest was cut down, and only large and small stumps remained on the ground.

Many refugees sat on the stump and ate and talked.

"When there was no military disaster before, we didn't eat these good things." A person who looks like an old farmer, even if the spring breeze is steep and his clothes are not covered, fortunately, he has just drunk a bowl of hot porridge and has something in his stomach, so he is not so afraid of cold at this time.

"Why is Wuzhou so good, this road is easy to walk, no matter whether it is windy or rainy. Lianshi's porridge is so delicious, and you can still eat all-you-can-eat.

From Anbo to Yangjiang, and then here, I have never eaten porridge like this. ”

"I heard that people in Wuzhou eat three meals a day, and they can eat white rice at every meal! I heard that on their side, everyone can eat meat every year or festival! ”

"Really?"

Some refugees come from Wenchang County, and even farther away from Fangzheng County and Anlan County, all the way to Wuzhou, and there are not a few families left, accustomed to the scene of Yizi eating, seeing more scenes of eating Guanyin soil and not being able to pull it down to death, and also accustomed to seeing the scene of skin and bones exposed to the wilderness, all kinds of things after coming to Wuzhou, there is always a hazy sense of unreality.

"It must be true, you look at the people here, they are all strong and solid, and the clothes they wear are all decent, and they must be living well."

A young woman with a child imagined: "When I settle down in Yile County, I will also be from Wuzhou in the future, right?" ”

"That is, as long as you work hard after you arrive in Yile County, you will definitely be able to live a good life."

Ren Pingsheng walked over and said.

At the same time, he sat next to the refugees, reached out and touched the child's head, and asked with a smile, "Is the porridge just now delicious?" ”

"It's so sweet and delicious!"

Because the child is too thin, the dark and rough skin of the limbs is tightly wrapped around the bones, the joints are particularly obvious, and the belly is extraordinarily large.

The bones on the face are prominent, and the eyes are particularly large, probably after entering Wuzhou, after a few days of full food, the complexion still looks good, at this time nodded and said: "The one called sweet potato is delicious."

"Well, when I go to Yile County in the future, study hard, and I will definitely be able to eat whatever I want in the future."

Ren Pingsheng patted her little head, then looked at the woman and asked, "Where are you from?" ”

The woman blushed a little at this time, and lowered her head and did not dare to look at him.

This man wore a round-necked scribe's shirt, which was something that only those old men could wear when he was in his hometown.

And he looks so dazzling, she has only seen it in her life, at this time the other party took the initiative to ask, the woman clenched her fists nervously, and clutched the corners of her clothes.

"Huanhua County ······"

She whispered.

"Huanhua County in Wanzhou."

This year, the Northern Anhui Group finally went south, conquered Wenchang County and Huanhua County one after another, and conquered the city all the way, and most of the entire Anhui Prefecture became the territory of the Northern Anhui Group.

Perhaps now, the regional name of Wanbei Group has been changed to Wanzhou Group.

"Why did you choose to go to Yile County?"

Ren Pingsheng asked again.

At the same time, he took out two pieces of White Rabbit toffee in his hand, stuffed them into the child's hand, opened one of the candy wrappers, stuffed the candy into her mouth, and taught her how to eat.

As soon as the toffee was in his mouth, the child's eyes suddenly widened.

Apparently an unprecedented taste that had conquered her palate.

"We originally wanted to go to Yangjiang to make a living, but after arriving in Yangjiang, many people there are going to Qifeng County, or going south to Yile County.

Some people inquired that many places in Qifeng County and Yile County were recruiting, and they could get wages if they had them.

So we went to Yile County again. ”

The woman whispered.

"Why didn't you go to Qifeng County? Qifeng County should be closer than Yile County, right? ”

Ren Pingsheng asked.

"In Yile County, as long as you find a job, you can take care of food, and you will be assigned a place to live, and I heard that there are clothes and hair.

Moreover, when it comes to the place of work, you can also register the workers, and you can become Wuzhou people in the future. ”

A young man next to him interjected.

"Yes, yes, the most important thing is to be admitted to Wuzhou! After becoming a naturalized citizen, we are at ease in our hearts. ”

Several of the surrounding refugees responded.

Although Qifeng County is the current provincial capital of Wuzhou and the center of Wuzhou's political power, the examination of naturalization is still stricter than that of other places.

Ren Pingsheng was here, chatting and questioning several groups of refugees.

Approximately know the real situation of the people in Wanzhou.

The government's excesses and miscellaneous taxes, and the exorbitant collection are certainly terrible, but when the thieves of the Beiwan group came over, as soon as those thieves entered the city, they carried blades to rob houses and houses, robbed goods and women, burned and looted at every turn, I don't know how many women were forced, and how many innocent people were killed.

Once the order disappears, the evil that erupts cannot be stopped.

"Order the First Army to strengthen patrols along the road from Huanhua County to Qifeng County and Yile County, and don't let living corpses appear on these road sections."

Before getting into the car, Ren Pingsheng said the correspondent who followed the line.

"Yes!"

The correspondent carried a portable radio station on his carriage, which could send a telegram to the Qifeng County Secretariat, which would seal it and then transmit it to the First Army.

"Directly transfer the password to Qin Sheng, doesn't the red-maned horse want to be an official, and train it into the patrol team to weigh its ability."

It's not a big deal, and you don't have to go through the procedure again.

And what Ren Pingsheng directly arranged, Qin Sheng was even more concerned.

Leaving Wangjiang County, the convoy continued on the road.

This highway has just been opened, and there is a lot of traffic on the road.

Occasionally, muddy trucks pass by—often causing a wave of fear and exclamation whenever this steel monster passes by. Some people even ran straight into the wasteland outside the highway in fear when they heard the sound of car horns.

In the evening, the convoy was at the foot of a large Song village below Yue County.

It is said to be a village, but in fact it is a town that gathers spontaneously, and there are inns and hotels in the town.

The team chartered an inn, Ren Pingsheng lived in the upper room, and the rest of the people could only squeeze in.

At night, the temperature drops to four or five degrees, and many refugees also gather in Dasong Village.

Although the Department of Civil Affairs has a system of sanatoriums, the influx of such a large number of refugees is far beyond the capacity of the sanatoriums.

However, the nursing home in Yue County still prepared a lot of blankets here and distributed them to the refugees who spent the night here, and the blankets would be wrapped overnight, and the people hired by the nursing home would take them back the next day.

"When I arrived in Wuzhou Province, I realized what it was like to be a human being."

Early the next morning, Ren Pingsheng had breakfast and heard the words of a refugee in a tattered robe.

Yue County is already very close to Yile County, and the two are close to each other.

When I set foot on the land of Yile County, the dark green color lingered in my eyes.

However, when the horse-drawn carriage passed on the highway, it was often seen that many years of roadside construction sites, there were many laborers on the construction site with iron pots, constantly pushing a cart of soil into the iron pot and stir-frying, the green soil was fried and faded, and then poured back into the cart and pushed out.

Ren Pingsheng's mind swept away, and the yellow land, large and small, was like a piece of scars, covering this green land.

On the carriage, in the field of vision, a factory under construction gradually appeared.

In the planning, Yile County will be built into an industrial town dominated by the chemical industry, relying on the Sanchun River wharf, a tributary of the Blue Yangtze River, Qile Highway, and the railway line planned to be built in the later stage.

Several industrial parks are still under construction, and the supporting workers' dormitory buildings are also under construction at the same time, attracted by the treatment offered by Yile County, and workers from all over the world are now in full swing into this fiery construction.

In the chemical park near the Sanchun River, several factories have been built and put into operation.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Qixing refinery.

On the side of the entrance, there is also a recruitment registration point, where many people are queuing up to enter the refinery.

Xiao Wan's brows furrowed slightly, and she turned her head to look at a greasy-faced person in the team.

Not long after getting out of the car, she noticed that the person had been staring at her.

Since cultivating and refining qi, her intuition has become more and more sensitive.

"Yes, is it Mrs. Qin?"

The man and Xiao Wan's eyes met, knowing that they had been discovered, he hesitated and walked out of the queue, and asked loudly after bowing to Xiao Wan from afar.

"Mrs. Qin?"

Xiao Wan glanced at her young master, and her mind turned around, but she didn't have any impression of the unkempt man.

"Take a few steps forward and speak."

Ren Pingsheng and Xiao Wan glanced at each other, and also saw the doubt in her eyes, so they shouted at the person.

At this time, the attachés also got out of the carriage one after another, and the plainclothes guards scattered around, not only not to appear abrupt, but also to prevent someone from colliding with the king's driver.

The man felt the gaze on him, and realized that the identity of the person in front of him was very unusual, either rich or expensive.

Immediately stepped forward more cautiously, stopped when he was two or three meters away, and bowed deeply to Ren Pingsheng: "Xiaosheng Bi Xianzhen, I've seen Mr!" ”
