Chapter 66: Li Sanwa's decision
readx;? Shangling City, located in the east of Shazhou, is a medium-sized city, only about three hundred miles away from the border of Qingzhou, after a large-scale riot in Qingzhou, the atmosphere in Shangling City also began to be tense. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The location of Shangling City is destined to be the first important line of defense for the sandbar to defend the Qingzhou mob from rushing into the sandbank, so now there are two guards of the White Elephant Legion stationed here, with a total of about 12,000 people.
The 12,000 White Elephant Legion soldiers directly made Shangling City as stable as Mount Tai.
Li Sanwa and some villagers in Lijiawan are looking for work in Shangling City.
After Li Jiawan and his entourage escaped from Li Jiawan, because everyone had some relatives, they did not scatter, but stayed together, which was also a great luck in misfortune.
Shangling City had just stationed 12,000 soldiers of the White Elephant Legion, so soon Li Sanwa and his party found something to do and help the White Elephant Legion carry supplies.
This job is very simple, and there are many people to carry it, so in just half a day, Li Sanwa and they were unemployed again, but fortunately, they earned twenty copper coins.
Twenty copper coins, now I can't even buy two catties of rice, but for Li Sanwa, a homeless person who has fled for nearly five or six hundred miles, this is already an eye-opener for God.
Relying on twenty copper coins, Li Sanwa's family can support them for two or three days.
Li Sanwa and his party were stronger than the other homeless, and Li Sanwa had some kung fu in his hands, so they were left behind by the contractor and promised a lunch.
Once the contractor finds a job, Li Sanwa and they are the best people, and the contractor takes a fancy to Li Sanwa's skills, so he will keep Li Sanwa and them.
Soon, it was time for lunch.
Li Sanwa's lunch is very simple, two fist-sized coarse grain steamed buns per person, plus a bowl of rice soup.
Although more than half of the coarse grain steamed buns are wild vegetables, and there are only a handful of rice grains in the rice soup, it is already a rare delicacy for Li Sanwa and her party.
After Li Sanwa received her lunch, she directly put one of the semi-coarse grain steamed buns in her arms, and Li Sanwa was going to take this semi-coarse grain steamed bun back to her family to eat.
A half-coarse grain steamed bun and some wild vegetables can be boiled, and Li Sanwa's family can be a dinner.
If it weren't for the hard work in the afternoon, Li Sanwa wouldn't even be willing to eat the other half of the coarse grain steamed buns.
Around Li Sanwa, there are many people doing the same thing as Li Sanwa, and it is obvious that these people also want to bring coarse grain steamed buns back to their families to eat.
"....... Li Sanwa took a sip of rice soup beautifully, and her heart was satisfied.
There are only a handful of rice grains in the rice soup, but the fragrance of the rice soup makes Li Sanwa very satisfied.
However, what satisfies Li Sanwa the most is the tranquility in Shangling City.
Looking at the white elephant legion soldiers in armor not far away, Li Sanwa's heart was at peace, he knew that as long as these soldiers were there, they would be safe.
Thinking that she would no longer have to worry about the sneak attacks of the homeless and hungry people in the future, the attacks of those powerful beasts in the mountains and forests at night, and the safety of her family, Li Sanwa's heart relaxed for a while.
(Some people may ask, isn't Li Sanwa a little strong, why don't you go hunting in the forest?)
Don't forget, the Shenzhou Continent is not the earth, and because of the development of science and technology, powerful beasts in the forest are rare on the earth, so as long as some hunters are careful and go into the forest to hunt, there will be no problem.
However, it is different on the Shenzhou Continent.
The forests of the Shenzhou Continent can be described as a forbidden place for ordinary people.
On the outskirts of the forest, you can see many powerful beasts, and if you go a little deeper, powerful beasts can be seen everywhere.
Li Sanwa's strength was very dangerous in the face of those powerful beasts on the periphery of the forest, not to mention those powerful beasts in the forest.
Therefore, if Li Sanwa wants to go to the forest to hunt animals to support his family, it is impossible, he can only wander around the periphery of the forest at most.
However, such a place has long been swept back and forth by others, not to mention some wild things, even wild vegetables and leaves are no longer visible. )
With a mouthful of rice soup and a small bite of coarse grain steamed buns, Li Sanwa began to enjoy her first peaceful lunch in two months.
'Dangdangdang...... Suddenly, there was a sound of a gong, and when Li Sanwa heard it, his eyes lit up immediately, because the person who struck the gong was a contractor on the construction site.
"Recruit, recruit......" The voice of the foreman sounded in the voice that Li Sanwa wanted to hear the most.
Li Sanwa's family has a total of seven people, although Li Sanwa earned 20 copper coins today, but for Li Sanwa's family, it is really like a drop in the bucket, so Li Sanwa has to continue to look for a job.
"Everyone, pay attention, Master Lin of Huangsha Town recruits people to help open up the wasteland, the salary is sixty copper coins per person per day, including three meals, if you want to go, sign up as soon as possible, everyone pay attention to the ....... ”
The foreman on the stage kept shouting loudly, but Li Sanwa was already immersed in this big 'surprise' at this time.
(For each person recruited, the contractor will have the benefit of a silver coin, which is why the contractor will work so hard.) )
"Sixty copper coins a day, plus three ...... a day. Li Sanwa's eyes lit up suddenly.
"The current price of grain is a catty of eighteen copper coins, sixty copper coins, can buy more than three catties of green corn, more than three catties of rice, enough for our family to eat for two days, if you save a little, pick more wild vegetables every day, I will save some wild vegetable steamed buns, maybe you can save so many ten or twenty copper coins, so ......." ”
Li Sanwa's heart was moved, he hurriedly swallowed the coarse grain steamed buns in his hand, and then called the people from Li Jiawan aside, and everyone began to discuss......
The next day, Li Sanwa's family, as well as all the people of Li Jiawan, began to gather outside Shangling City, and they had already signed up to go to Huangsha Town to help clear the wasteland.
Although Huangsha Town is a hundred households on the border of Shazhou, it is much worse than a big city like Shangling City, too much, and it is about two hundred miles away from Shangling City, which is still a desert area, but Li Sanwa and these people still signed up directly without thinking about it.
Shangling City is good, but now there are too many displaced people here, which not only leads to a direct increase in the living consumption level in Shangling City, but also the difficulty of finding a job in Shangling City has increased several times.
For the same job, there used to be only three or four people competing, but now forty or fifty people competing is also common, which has led to the beginning of a decrease in wages, so it is not easy to live in Shangling City now.
Huangsha Town is desolate, but at least there is work to be done, and it is still a long-term job.
Ten miles of desert want to be all reclaimed, Li Sanwa according to his own farming experience, it is impossible to have four or five months of time, and once the ten miles of desert is all reclaimed, the number of tenants needed in the future is not a small number, Li Sanwa has enough confidence that he will definitely be able to become one of the tenants in the end.
Huangsha Town is a hundred households, surrounded by the protection of the moat city, with enough security guarantees, and he can also rent a field to feed his family, if he doesn't go to such a place, Li Sanwa is a fool.
"Let's go!" Qian Wuwu waved his hand, and everyone began to move towards Huangsha Town.
Li Sanwa looked back at Shangling City, and then took her family's hand without hesitation and set foot on the road to Huangsha Town......
It was exactly seven o'clock in the morning, and the sun had just come out.
The newborn sun shone on Li Sanwa and her party, making them so bright and bright......
