Chapter 351: Twenty Jin of Food (2/2)



Besides, these grains are not for white-collar workers. It will take at most half a year for the refugees to be resettled.

After all, it will take more than half a year. If the court does not take it seriously, some refugees will probably gather and cause civil unrest in the Great Zhou Dynasty, which is something the officials of the court do not want to see.

And they pay a thousand kilograms of grain a month, which can protect the villagers' property to a certain extent, which is relatively cost-effective.

Another point is that they are not afraid to spend the village money on the villagers.

Anyway, this money was handed over by the villagers and is used to pay the patrol team. There is no problem with it.

With the support of these ten kilograms of grain, the seven villages quickly set up patrol teams and began patrolling that day without any objection.

After all, the earlier they start, the earlier they can get food.

In fact, after the village heads talked about the patrol team, some people showed up here and there, but it was still a little short of fifty people.

When the village heads announced that they would provide 10 kilograms of food every month, a long line formed to sign up.

The patrol team is related to the property safety of the entire village. The village heads will not treat them casually, but will strictly control them and only select people with good character, good physique, and who are not cunning.

After some selection, fifty strong laborers were successfully selected.

Those who were chosen held their heads high and chests puffed out, wishing the whole world would know about it. Those who were not chosen hung their heads in despair, as if they had lost a lot of money.

That’s right, ten kilograms of food a month is quite a lot.

However, the villagers also knew that the reason the village set up a patrol team was to prevent refugees from coming to the village to steal food.

All of a sudden, the seven villages were in a state of panic, and even those who were not on patrol took the initiative to investigate the situation outside the village.

Li Mengyue herself didn't know about this. When she arrived at the city gate and saw the scene in front of the city gate, her brows subconsciously frowned.

Even though she was mentally prepared and knew that the refugees would come sooner or later, she didn't expect it to happen so soon.

Everywhere I looked, there were refugees, either standing or sitting.

They all had haggard faces and wore tattered clothes. Many of them were even naked and could only use rags to cover important parts of their bodies.

Fortunately, the weather is not cold now. If it were winter, many people would freeze to death from the cold alone.

Moreover, there is no hope in the eyes of these people. Instead, they have become numb, as if the pressure of life has drained away their vitality.

Li Mengyue continued to move forward. Just as she arrived in front of the refugees, suddenly everyone's eyes turned to her.

No, to be precise, he was looking at the backpack behind Li Mengyue.

Li Mengyue, who was about to raise her foot, suddenly stopped. She felt like a monkey in a zoo, being watched enthusiastically by people.

That's right. Li Mengyue, who looked very good in both her clothes and complexion, was like a drop of water in a frying pan when she arrived at the refugee group, causing a crackling noise inside. She was also like a starving dog who saw the big bone he had been thinking about day and night. How could he not be excited?

[Host, gratitude value, gratitude value, these are all gratitude values, they are all our God! ]

"Tsk, you want to worship them as gods, I don't care, but don't even think about asking me to do the same."

[Host, how can you say that? I...I misjudged you.]

【Oh, let’s unbind it. 】

[Oops, host, I didn't hear what you said clearly. I didn't hear clearly.]
