Traveling through troubled times, he fled with his stepson

"what is it call?"

"Ah? Um... Yang Liuzhu." The man came back to his senses and answered his name.

"Yang...Keep it?" She paused when she heard the name. This name was so casually chosen, it must have been a nickname she used when she was a child.

"Ah."

"How old are you this year?"

"Twenty-six."

Wei Qiqi raised his eyebrows. He was a young man, but the war and the hardships of life had made him different from his peers.

"Who's home?" she continued.

"There is a brother who is two years younger than him and a sister who is seven years younger than him." Yang Liuzhu lowered his head and dared not look at Wei Qiqi. He tried his best to suppress his emotions so as not to make a fool of himself and lose this rare opportunity.

"Is there any land?"

Wei Qiqi asked.

Although Yang Liuzhu didn't understand why she asked this, he still answered honestly: "We sold them all to survive. Now my brother and I work for others and can only earn a living."

"Is there no work now?"

Yang Liuzhu shook his head: "Nowadays, everyone's business is not doing well, so they have no choice but to lay us off. We have nowhere to stay, and it's even difficult to get food."

Ye Yuanxin, who was standing by, breathed a sigh of relief after recording, then turned to Wei Qiqi.

After knowing that she had finished memorizing, Wei Qiqi said, "You and your brother are of the right age and family background. Come here to gather at this time tomorrow. Bring your sister with you. It will be safer for her to stay with you."

Yang Liuzhu raised his head suddenly, and seeing Wei Qiqi's serious expression, his face went blank, "Is what this lady said true? Can my brother and I work together?"

Wei Qiqi nodded, "Yes, all three of you brothers and sisters will come together tomorrow. You can go now, and remember to call the next person when you go out."

Yang Liu didn't know how he took his left and right feet. When he went out, he met his second brother and younger sister who were queuing outside.

"Brother, have you passed? Did they ask me to come in?"

The second brother grabbed his arm, and the two pairs of eyes looked at Yang Liuzhu eagerly. Yang Liuzhu said with a tight throat: "You and I have passed it, and the lady inside said that we can bring my younger sister with us."

As soon as these words were spoken, not only the two people in front of him, but everyone else also showed envious and jealous looks. Yang Liuzhu noticed other people's looks and knew that he should not attract too much attention at the moment, so he quickly took his younger brother and sister and went somewhere else.

After their figures disappeared, the people behind them hurried forward.

Wei Qiqi sat there and didn't ask anyone to go outside to give instructions until it was the last person's turn.

People outside came in one after another. Those who were confused at first later realized what was going on and quickly lined up, causing the line to become longer and longer, with more and more people coming.

Huo Xiuwen and a group of people were guarding outside. Because they were all wearing military uniforms and carrying swords, the people in the queue basically did not dare to do anything beyond the limit.

Ye Yuanxin came out and approached Huo Xiuwen: "The master said that there are enough people, so let the people behind go back temporarily. There will be more jobs later, and they will be posted on the notice at that time. Just let them pay attention to the notice at any time."

Huo Xiuwen turned around and spoke to the people behind him without saying anything. The selected people left happily, while the unselected people asked questions everywhere for details and kept expressing regret.

When Wei Qiqi and the others came out, there were still a lot of people surrounding them outside. Those who didn't have time to put on their hoods were caught by the people outside.

The previously noisy voices suddenly quieted down, and people stared blankly in the direction of Wei Qiqi.

She was wearing a white dress with a green lining, and her beautiful and slender neck could be seen between the collar. Her skin was as white as jade, and her stunning beauty shocked everyone, who even forgot to speak and move for a moment.

Wei Qiqi quickly put on her veil, and then followed Huo Xiuwen, leading the way, and got into the carriage not far away.

Ye Yuanxin followed closely beside him and couldn't help but let down the door curtains for Wei Qiqi to block the fiery gazes outside.

When the carriage disappeared from everyone's sight, the previously quiet scene slowly began to be filled with tiny noises, which gradually grew louder.

"That lady just now looked really..."

"This is the only way a celestial being can be like."

Some people shook their heads, with a hint of explicitness in their eyes.

Wei Qiqi took off her hat veil in the carriage. She didn't expect that there were so many people outside just now.

Wei Qiqi and his group thought that everything would be fine when they arrived at the mansion. After one day at the mansion, it turned into the next day.

People came quickly, perhaps because of the rumors spread by those who came yesterday, so more people came today.

She brought a group of people to the place that Wei Qiqi had purchased in advance. She bought every street and alley there. Now Wei Qiqi had almost no money left.

This alley is full of empty houses. Every room is empty and has nothing in it. These were all cleaned up by Zhu Youwei in advance.

When she brought her people to this alley, Zhu Youwei, Jana, his little apprentice, and other carpenters and bricklayers had already arrived here early to wait for her.

"Good morning, Madam Wei."

Zhu Youwei and a group of people saluted Wei Qiqi.

"Everyone, get up."

"Madam Wei, everything is cleaned up inside. There's nothing inside. Please come in and take a look."

Wei Qiqi nodded, and then led a group of people into the alley. This alley was originally an abandoned street. Because the military camp was later moved around it, their business was not doing well, so all the shops moved away. The owner of the house looked at the houses and wanted to cry but had no tears.

He didn't expect that someone would be willing to take over his place at a price that satisfied both parties.

After removing all the things in the room, there was a dormitory, which was very spacious and bright. There were a total of five rooms of different sizes. Wei Qiqi looked at them one by one and found that there was no big problem.

"Okay, everything is fine."

Wei Qiqi praised after seeing it. The people behind him looked curiously at the place where they would stay and work in the future. They couldn't think of what they would do now.

"Master Zhu, I'll leave these people to you. It's up to you to arrange them. Try to get them all as quickly as possible with the limited money and energy."

Zhu Youwei nodded immediately after hearing this order. With these fifty people, why would he worry about not being able to get so many curved plows and hoes in a short time?

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

When Zhu Youwei brought Jana to report, Wei Qiqi and Li Yuan were talking to each other about what they were going to do next.

Before the two of them could get to the point, Yi Liu came in and said that Master Zhu had come and asked for a meeting.

Wei Qiqi asked someone to bring it in.

Li Yuan looked at Wei Qiqi, who looked better recently, and thought that he might need someone named Shen to come over and take her pulse again to see if the medicine was effective.

If it is useful, you cannot stop using it.
