Chapter 408: The Government Doesn’t Care

"What do you mean, mother, the government is not going to take care of it?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Si stood up directly, with disbelief in his eyes.

When he opened his mouth to question again, Xiao Wu tapped him on the shoulder.

"My mother is right. If there are few people fleeing famine, the government will not take action at all. Think about it for yourself, in our village, we will encounter one or two beggars every now and then. If we take care of everyone, the government will not be able to handle it. "

"That's different. On weekdays, those who beg for food are all locals. These are obviously outsiders, who can easily disrupt our people's lives."

Xiaosi raised his chin and looked at his twin brother unconvinced. It was not like he didn't understand anything.

Xiao Wu looked at his proud look and shook his head speechlessly.

"You are right. Only when more and more people beg are seriously affecting people's lives, and the government is afraid of arousing public anger, will they intervene. As for how much is too much, we don't have the final say."

Listening to Xiao Wu's explanation, Xiao Si felt unhappy.

"Listen to what you mean, the government will just turn a blind eye. What if the refugees don't get food and cause trouble?"

"It depends on the seriousness of the case. If they only steal a bite of food, even if the person who was stolen reports it to the government, the government will ignore it except for a few words of reprimand. If there are many people begging, it is inevitable that some people will have unclean hands and feet. If the government If we arrest people, the cells will be overcrowded.”

Xiao Wu said, his eyes unconsciously showing a gloomy look.

"Of course, if the situation is serious and there are casualties, that will have to be discussed separately."

Listening to Xiao Wu's tone, several people couldn't help but fall silent.

Bai Yunxi saw that the momentum of the few people was low. Although she was helpless, the fact was true and they could not escape it.

"Xiao Wu is right. If it is a small fight, the government will naturally ignore it. If there is an accident involving casualties, the nature of the whole matter will change, and the government will have to take care of it."

It took a while before Mrs. Li spoke unwillingly,

"People who are fleeing from famine are hungry themselves, so they will naturally only steal food. If one or two people are like this, those families who have been stolen from are so pitiful."

Hey, why doesn’t it sound pleasant to you?

"Originally, everyone is already unbalanced because of the rising food prices. If they are stolen once or twice, they will probably go crazy. What if it is not a serious matter and someone's life is caused? "

As Du said, she was once again glad that her family's house was built in time. If it had been the fenced yard before, it might have been robbed, let alone stolen.

Listening to the worried tone of the two people, Xiao Wu spoke before Bai Yunxi could speak.

"If these people who are fleeing the famine are uniformly recognized as refugees by the government, they will definitely be arrested and served. I think they should also know their situation, and they must be avoiding the government's interrogation at all times."

"I'm just afraid that they will huddle together and hurt people just to fill their stomachs. This is the biggest threat."

Those people were forced to become refugees, and they were already very angry. It was not surprising that they would hurt others just for the sake of a bite to eat.

"Then they are too bold. They are outsiders. If they dare to provoke us locals, they don't know how to live or die."

Bai Anyan snorted and looked at everyone,

"If we see them entering the village together, we will close the door and deny them food."

Baiyunxi waved his hand,

"What Xiaowu said is the worst plan, but those young and middle-aged people who escaped from famine are indeed not good. You should pay more attention to them, especially the women, children and children at home. If you can't go out, don't go out."
