Alien Lord

Shangling City, located in the east of Shazhou, is a medium-sized city, only about 300 miles away from the border of Qingzhou. After the large-scale riots broke out in Qingzhou, the atmosphere in Shangling City also became tense.

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 sandbar. Therefore, now there are two guards of the White Elephant Army stationed here, with a total of about 12,000 people.

Twelve thousand soldiers of the White Elephant Legion directly made Shangling City as stable as Mount Tai.

Li Sanwa and some folks from Lijiawan were looking for work in Shangling City.

After the Lijiawan group fled from Lijiawan, because everyone had more or less relatives, they didn't disperse, but stayed together all the time, which was a blessing among misfortunes.

Twelve thousand soldiers of the White Elephant Army had just been stationed in Shangling City, so Li Sanwa and his party soon found a job to help the White Elephant Army carry supplies.

This job is very simple, and there are many people to carry it. Therefore, in just half a day, Li Sanwa and the others were unemployed again. Fortunately, they earned 20 copper coins.

Twenty copper coins can't even buy two catties of rice now, but for refugees like Li Sanwa who have fled for nearly five or six hundred miles, this is already an eye-opener.

Relying on twenty copper coins, Li Sanwa's family can last for two or three days.

Li Sanwa and her party were stronger than the other refugees, and Li Sanwa had some skills, so they were kept by the contractor and promised a lunch.

Once the contractor finds a job, Li Sanwa and the others are the best manpower. Moreover, the contractor has a little fancy for Li Sanwa's skills, so he keeps Li Sanwa and the others.

Soon, it was time for lunch.

Li Sanwa's lunch is very simple, two fist-sized coarse grain steamed buns for each 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, for Li Sanwa and his team, it is already a rare delicacy.

After Li Sanwa received her lunch, she put one and a half coarse-grain steamed buns in her bosom, and Li Sanwa was going to take this one and a half coarse-grain steamed buns home for her family to eat.

One and a half coarse-grain steamed buns and some wild vegetables are cooked, and Li Sanwa's family can have dinner.

If it wasn't for the hard work in the afternoon, Li Sanwa wouldn't even be willing to eat the other half of the whole grain steamed bun.

Around Li Sanwa, there are many people who are doing the same thing as Li Sanwa. Obviously, these people also want to take the coarse-grain steamed buns back for their families to eat.

"Zi..." Li Sanwa took a sip of the rice soup beautifully, feeling satisfied for a while.

There are only a handful of rice grains in the rice soup, but the aroma of the rice soup makes Li Sanwa very satisfied.

However, what satisfied Li Sanwa the most was the tranquility in Shangling City.

Looking at the soldiers of the White Elephant Army in armor not far away, Li Sanwa felt at peace in her heart. He knew that as long as these soldiers were around, they would be safe.

Li Sanwa felt relieved when she thought that she would no longer have to worry about the sneak attacks of refugees and hungry people, the attacks of those powerful savage beasts in the forest at night, and the safety of her family.

(Someone may ask, isn’t Li Sanwa a bit strong, why doesn’t she go hunting in the forest?

Everyone, don't forget that the mainland of China is not the earth. Due to the development of science and technology on the earth, powerful beasts in the forest are rare. Therefore, as long as some hunters are careful and go hunting in the forest, there will be no problem.

However, it is different on the mainland of China.

The forest in the Shenzhou Continent can be described as a forbidden place for ordinary people.

On the outskirts of the forest, you can see many powerful wild beasts. If you go a little deeper, powerful wild beasts can be seen everywhere.

Li Sanwa's strength is dangerous to those powerful beasts outside the forest, let alone those powerful wild beasts inside the forest.

Therefore, it is impossible for Li Sanwa to support his family by hunting animals in the forest. He can only wander around the periphery of the forest at most.

However, such a place has long been swept away by others, not to mention some wild animals, even wild vegetables and leaves can no longer be seen. )

With a mouthful of rice soup and a small mouthful of coarse-grain steamed buns, Li Sanwa began to enjoy her first peaceful lunch in the past two months.

‘Dangdangdang….. ’ Suddenly a gong sounded, and Li Sanwa’s eyes lit up when she heard the sound, because the person who was beating the gong was a contractor on the construction site.

"We're hiring, we're hiring...!" The voice that Li Sanwa most wanted to hear came from the contractor's mouth.

Li Sanwa's family has a total of seven members. Although Li Sanwa earned 20 copper coins today, it is really like a drop in the bucket for Li Sanwa's family. Therefore, Li Sanwa has to continue looking for a job.

"Attention everyone, Mr. Lin in Huangsha Town recruits people to help open up wasteland. The salary is 60 copper coins per person per day, including three meals. If you want to go, sign up as soon as possible. Attention everyone..."

The contractor on the stage kept shouting loudly, but Li Sanwa was already immersed in this big 'surprise' at this moment.

(Every time one person is recruited, the contractor will have the benefit of one silver coin, so the contractor will put in so much effort.)

"Sixty copper coins a day, plus three meals a day..." Li Sanwa's eyes lit up.

"The current grain price is 18 copper coins per catty. If you buy 60 copper coins, you can buy more than three catties of green corn and more than three catties of rice, which is enough for our family to eat for two days. If you save a little, you can pick more wild vegetables every day. , I will save some steamed buns with wild vegetables, maybe I can save a dozen or twenty copper coins, if that's the case..."

Li Sanwa's heart was moved. He hurriedly swallowed the coarse grain steamed buns in his mouth, then called the people in Lijiawan aside, and everyone started to discuss...

The next day, Li Sanwa's family and all the people from Lijiawan began to gather outside Shangling City. They had signed up to go to Huangsha Town to help open up wasteland.

Although Huangsha Town is a 100-household settlement on the border of Shazhou, it is much worse than a big city like Shangling City, and it is about 200 miles away from Shangling City. It is still a desert area, but Li People like Sanwa still signed up without even thinking about it.

Shangling City is good, but now there are too many refugees, which not only directly increases the living consumption level in Shangling City, but also makes it more difficult to find a job in Shangling City. .

In the past, there were only three or four people competing for the same job, but now it is common for forty or fifty people to compete. This has led to a reduction in wages. Therefore, it is not easy to live in Shangling City now.

Huangsha Town was desolate, but at least there was work to be done, and it was a long-term job.

According to Li Sanwa's own farming experience, it is impossible to reclaim all the ten miles of desert within four or five months. Moreover, once the ten miles of desert is completely reclaimed, the number of tenants will not be small in the future. Li Sanwa has enough confidence that she will definitely become one of the tenants in the end.

Huangsha Town is home to 100 households, surrounded by Tianzhu City, which has enough security guarantees, and he can rent a field to support his family. Li Sanwa would be a fool if he didn't go to such a place.

"Let's go!" With a wave of Qian Wu's big hand, everyone started to move towards Huangsha Town.

Li Sanwa looked back at Shangling City, then held her family's hand without hesitation, and embarked 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 his party, making them look so bright, so bright...
