Quick wear is not a cannon fodder

Chapter 217 A world with more men and fewer women 17

So now, except for a few who were particularly reluctant to leave their hometown, almost fifty other people, including Mrs. Zhang, expressed their willingness to go to Yunyang Mansion with An Ran, and An Ran helped them use charcoal to leave a letter on the wall of their home, telling them Where did the family go?

I am not afraid of what will happen if this information is seen by both warring parties. After all, who cares where a common man goes to escape.

At that moment, An Ran tried to find a way to get some food for the few people who couldn't leave and those who were about to leave - in fact, he went to steal some food from the kitchen of Zhang Wentian's military camp. The food depot was heavily guarded and couldn't be stolen, but it could still be stolen from the kitchen. Anyway, she only had to give a few dozen people a little food, and she was still able to get this little thing - because she didn't steal much, she gave more to those who stayed behind. Those who were on the road only brought a day's worth of food, and An Ran told them , when we leave this place tomorrow, we will have somewhere to get food (it’s nothing more than going to the wealthy people’s houses to pick up the sheep). It won’t be too late to get it by then. Everyone still trusts Anron and has no objections. Then Anron will We set out on the road with fifty people who were willing to go.

The old, weak, sick and disabled could not walk fast, so they walked and rested. By the next day, they had only walked fifty miles, but at least they were far away from the battlefield.

And An Ran indeed brought everyone a new day's food.

After walking like this for two days, the group of people arrived at the riverside smoothly. No accidents were encountered on the way. That's right. The battlefield was nearby, the people who fled had already left long ago, and the bandits' dens had long been taken away by both warring parties and their supplies confiscated. , so apart from being wary of the soldiers on both sides of the war, there really is nothing to be afraid of.

"We won't buy food for the time being. We'll wait until we get to the other side of the river. The price of food there is much cheaper."

After all, there is a natural danger in Yongjiang, and everyone thinks that Zhang Thief can't defeat him for a while, so the price of food is not bad. Although it has risen, it has not risen to the point of five taels of silver and one stone.

Naturally, everyone had no objections to An Ran's proposal - what opinions could they have? All they had to eat these days was provided by An Ran, and they didn't have many coins on hand (countryside people were already poor, so when their families fled, they would also Almost all the family wealth was taken away, so they who stayed there to die naturally had no money). Even if they wanted to buy food, they had no money to buy it.

An Ran took everyone by boat to the other side smoothly. The bustling people coming and going on the other side and the peace far away from the smoke made these war-torn people cry with excitement.

"Well, I don't know where my children have gone. I also said at the beginning that I wanted to come to Jiangnan. I wonder if they are in the Yunyang Mansion you mentioned. I was thinking that I am such an old woman and I don't have much at home. Those soldiers and bandits would not cause trouble for me. I didn’t want to move, so I stayed at home. I didn’t expect that they would take away all the last things of my wife. If I had known this, I would have left with the children. "Old Mrs. Zhang sighed.

Originally, she really didn't want to leave. After all, she was afraid of dying in a foreign land and becoming a ghost in a foreign land. However, An Ran said that it would only take a few days to go to Jiangnan, so she might as well go and have a look. What if she had a good time in Jiangnan? Even if something happens, An Ran said she would send her back to her hometown.

Mrs. Zhang really didn't want to become a ghost in a foreign land, but after hearing what An Ran said, she was still tempted and came over with An Ran.

Since this young man has promised that if he dies unfortunately, the other party will send him back, then let's go. As he said, it is better to live than to die.

After listening to Mrs. Zhang's words, An Ran said: "Don't worry about this, just wait until we find a place to stay and then look for it slowly."

When it came to the place to stay, the old lady couldn't help but worry about An Ran again, and said: "My dear, there are so many of us, not too many, not too little. Where is there a place that can accommodate so many of us?"

"Old lady, don't worry, since I brought you here, you will be settled properly." An Ran smiled.

Since she had thought about developing in Yunyang, she was naturally prepared, and she did not think that these old, weak, sick and disabled people were useless.

First, having an old person in the family is like having a treasure. These old people have rich experience and have things that they don’t know much about in this time and space. Sometimes you can ask them for advice.

Secondly, she wants to develop in the future and wants people to help with some things. These old, weak, sick and disabled people can also help. Not to mention anything else, sewing and housework can always help her.

Except for those who have completely lost the ability to work, she does not think that those who can still do things are useless people, and people who have completely lost the ability to work have not come with her before - for poor people like them, people who have completely lost the ability to work , most likely they really couldn’t do anything anymore, including traveling far away, so when An Ran said to leave, they naturally didn’t follow. Therefore, although the people who could follow An Ran were old, weak, sick and disabled, they were not old enough to do anything. Degree.

She can't recruit many people for the time being, so it's good to have such a group of people following her.

When Mrs. Zhang heard An Ran say that there was a place to house them, she believed in An Ran's ability to do things, and she felt relieved immediately.

At that moment, An Ran took this group of old, weak, sick and disabled people to a charity village on the outskirts of Yunyang Mansion.

"Everyone, let's settle here first. The nearby villagers were frightened when they saw the rebel army on the other side, so they fled. Now the remaining people in the village are people like you. I saw this place was empty before, so I I paid some rent and rented with them for a year, so this is my place for the time being, and you can live in peace."

It’s no wonder that the villagers agreed to rent out the free village. In these days, wars are raging and the world is in chaos. Everything is expensive, even when money is needed the most. Therefore, the remaining old people in the village saw that there are people in the free village who are willing to rent. Naturally, I rented it out, thinking I could get some money.

At that moment, An Ran settled everyone down and set off with a dozen people.

The dozen or so people An Ran brought were the weak, sick and disabled in the team. There was no way. The old people left in the team were usually real old people. It might be okay to sew and mend at home, but it was completely impossible to take them out. , and not all the weak, sick and disabled can be brought out. Some people are really in poor health and it is impossible to carry them out.

Among the dozen or so people who could be brought out, some were patients treated by An Ran. In the previous village, An Ran not only chopped wood, hunted and carried water for Mrs. Zhang, but also treated the sick people in the village. Many herbs in this time and space are the same as those in the previous time and space, so her medical knowledge is useful.

And because her medical skills are far superior to those of the doctors nearby, through the two-pronged approach of acupuncture and moxibustion, after more than ten days of treatment, except for some difficult illnesses, people with ordinary illnesses have been cured.

Because she cured their diseases, these people were very convinced of her, so they now added several more workers to her.
