Chapter 384 You Have a Heart
The next morning, they had a simple meal and set off. Starting from Yi County, they passed Beizhen and entered Wuliu County of Liaodong County.
At noon, after walking for a whole morning, everyone felt tired.
"Look, our Liaodong County is ahead."
When everyone looked up and saw the official road that was twice as wide, some people shouted happily, "Wow, this Liaodong County looks really different."
"Let's go, everyone speed up!"
After entering the territory of Liaodong County, Xue Xu consulted Lu Desheng and ordered the large troops to rest and have lunch on the spot.
Everyone was hungry, and they started to cook in a vacant lot near Wuliu Tea House on the side of the official road.
The kitchen of Wuliu Tea House has been providing them with hot water.
The sign of Wuliu Tea House of Liaodong Chamber of Commerce is still fluttering in the wind today.
Someone noticed it and asked Liu Erxi and others curiously, "Is this Wuyou Tea Shop also an industry of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce?"
"Yes, we have tea shops in all counties of Liaodong County." And they are all opened at the entrances of major roads.
After lunch, they continued on their way.
Lv Desheng led his men to go ahead and leave the main group. Before leaving, he told everyone that he would go back to Houcheng to let the people in the government prepare and do a good job of resettlement.
Everyone expressed understanding and expectation.
Walking on the spacious official road of Liaodong County, countless refugees from the Southland were still in a trance. Did they really come to Liaodong County?
Some people couldn't help sighing. The Southland and Liaodong County were more than 3,000 miles apart. They really left their homeland.
However, even in the face of an unknown future, everyone did not hesitate too much.
First, they found that the people in Liaodong County were really friendly.
Second, Lv Desheng's performance yesterday gave them confidence.
What people fear most is comparison. The difference between the governor of Liaodong County and the governor of Nandi is obvious.
Before, they were ordinary people in Nandi. When they suffered a disaster, the government only gave them some thin porridge to keep them from starving to death. It took a month for them to resettle the victims.
But now, they are not ordinary people in Liaodong County. When Lord Lu heard that they were stopped, he came in person to negotiate with the governor of Liaoxi County and the governor.
I can only say that Lu Desheng's performance yesterday was really good.
When the large army just passed Wuliu County and Liaoyang County and was about to reach Wangping County, Guo Chunsheng hurried over with a group of people.
"Dear friends who have come from afar, my name is Guo Chunsheng. I and the people behind me are arranged by Lord Lu to help you resettle." He hurried over to avoid everyone rushing into Houcheng.
"Aren't we going to Houcheng?"
"Yes, don't we need to escort these grains to Houcheng?"
Xue Xu heard this and didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "No, the bandits in our Liaodong County have been eliminated, and the grain transport team doesn't need too many guards and is safe."
After Xue Xu finished speaking, Guo Chunsheng continued, "Lord Lu understands that you have traveled a long distance and asked me to come and settle everyone, so there is no need to wait until we arrive in Houcheng to make arrangements."
Everyone heard this and felt a little depressed, "Lord Guo, how does Lord Lu want you to settle us?"
Guo Chunsheng said, "It's like this, first divide into two categories, those who are willing to stay in Liaodong County or those who are unwilling. For those who are willing to stay in Liaodong County, you can form a team by yourself, and then send a representative to draw lots. We have 18 counties in Liaodong County, and you can settle down wherever you are caught."
"Is that so? That's good." Compared to luck, it's quite fair.
"But, our family wants to go to Houcheng."
"Nonsense, who doesn't want to settle in Houcheng?"
"Then I wish you good luck in drawing lots to stay in Houcheng. In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't draw lots. Other places in Liaodong County are also very good." Guo Chunsheng said with a smile, "Do you have any questions? If not, let's start?"
Everyone said, "Let's start!"
Guo Chunsheng: "Okay, now, those who are willing to stay in Liaodong County, stand on the left, and those who have not decided whether to stay in Liaodong County, or have decided not to stay, stand on the right."
While queuing, they were all chatting.
"This method is fair, I just hope my hands are obedient and touch a good place."
"I will send my youngest son to draw lots. This little guy has good luck since he was a child."
"Lord Lu is pretty good. If our family draws lots to Wangping County, we don't have to walk such a long way."
Taking advantage of Guo Chunsheng's busy time, Xue Xu said hello to everyone and left with his people.
Next was Liu Erxi. He wanted to transport the food back to Houcheng. However, seeing the uneasy look of the refugees in the south, he left dozens of guards from the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce to assist Guo Chunsheng.
With the familiar members of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce, the refugees in the south were indeed much more at ease.
…
After Xue Xu returned to Liaodong County, he took Alice and several other tribesmen straight to Pingguo County.
Xue Xu went to see Lu Songli first.
Lu Songli couldn't help asking if his tribe was okay.
Xue Xu replied, "Everything is fine," and then mentioned the tribesmen he brought out, especially Alice. He told Lu Songli that Alice's skills had been certified by Qin Sheng.
Hearing that Xue Xu had specially found a female guard for her, Lu Songli smiled and said to him, "You are thoughtful."
"Sixth Madam, do you want to meet them?"
"Of course I will." Lu Songli knew that Xue Xu must have brought the tribesmen from thousands of miles away to help them develop, and he brought them to see her to get her affirmation.
Xue Xu is very capable, and the tribesmen he is willing to bring out must have their own unique abilities. She still has to give this face.
"But let's not rush now, let them eat something and rest, see you later."
Xue Xu grinned, "Okay, then I'll bring them to see you later."
Lv Songli nodded slightly, and she pointed to the side, "Mr. Xue, here are the information and intelligence summary from Nanyang, take a look."
"Okay." Xue Xu walked over, picked up the information and started reading.
Half an hour later, he looked surprised, Mrs. Qin Liu was powerful, the matter in the Southland had just ended, and she set up such a big game in Nanyang?
