On the way to escape from natural disasters: She went crazy with space
Chapter 99: The Huns Enter the City
Lu Qingqing couldn't help but ask, "How bad is it?"
"Men who are old enough will be conscripted into the army, and women will be military prostitutes. If they are under or over the age limit, they will all become slaves and will only be freed on the day they die."
"Then tell me, aren't you worried about incurring their revenge?"
"They don't come out much at night, so they can't find any evidence against me!"
Lu Qingqing nodded. The government officials were indeed the most resourceful and vicious. They did not arrest the locals and allowed them to maintain their previous lives. They were setting a trap using the locals.
A scheme that leads the victims step by step towards their cages!
The locals are the slaves guarding the cages. No matter what happens to the people inside, with the threat from the government in front of them, the loyal slaves will never betray.
Liang Pei risked his life to tell her this, and he can be said to be the savior of their family of five.
Lu Qingqing thanked him sincerely and went back quickly.
Uncle and aunt couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw her return safe and sound.
Without waiting for them to ask, Lu Qingqing immediately told them everything about the horse and what happened in Changle Street.
They were shocked when they heard this and called their boss a good man.
Early the next morning.
The scorching heat of last night did not stay during the day, and the temperature returned to its previous normal level, as if the deathly high temperature last night had never happened!
They got up at daybreak and prepared to go to the morning market and have breakfast there.
They discussed it until late last night and decided to take the valuables with them and leave the rest of the food and horses in the inn.
Once you’ve bought everything on the street, come here and pick them up, and head straight north!
Changle Street.
When the five people arrived at Changle Street, the sun was just beginning to show its apex, and there was an endless stream of people coming to Changle Street to do business!
On both sides of the street, there are teahouses, restaurants, wine shops, workshops, pawnshops, steamed bun shops, butcher shops, and all kinds of small vendors selling snacks...
They didn't seem to be affected by the high temperature last night. Someone shouted, but Changle Street, which had been silent all night, suddenly became lively.
In the bustling crowd, everyone’s identity, status and dress are different, but their purpose is the same: to purchase!
They wiped their bodies with water last night and changed into clean clothes. They no longer looked like disaster victims, but rather a family of five who came to Quanzhou for a trip.
The dazzling array of goods and fragrant food on the street all attracted their attention.
But they know their limits and only buy what they need, and never waste time looking at other things.
After shopping for half an hour, I bought all the items I needed.
We bought five pounds of salt, five pounds of oil, ten pounds of brown rice, ten pounds of flour, five oilcloths, two clay jars, a set of summer clothes for each person, a pair of summer shoes and socks for each person, two oil umbrellas, two pieces of cloth, two pounds of walnut candies, and three pounds of fruit pulp crisps.
We also bought a lot of local specialties, such as chili sauce, Sichuan pepper chicken oil, garlic rice sauce, fresh fruits such as tangerines, sand pears, fresh vegetables, purple osmanthus, evergreens, long green beans, sweet potato flour, cassava flour, red bean flour, etc.
There are so many things here, and the total cost was just over five taels of silver. It is really good value for money.
After buying everything, they went to have breakfast!
Superior wonton soup restaurant.
Lu Qingqing had inquired about it and learned that this restaurant serves local specialty food, which is known for its reputation of being so delicious that you will want more after you have eaten one bowl. However, it is very expensive, costing three hundred coins per bowl!
They looted a lot of silver from bandits and violent people along the way, enough money for each person to have a bowl of wontons.
"Dear guests, what would you like to eat? In addition to wontons, our store also has many other snacks and staple foods. You can sit out and take a look. If you see something you like, eat it. If you don't like it, just think of it as making friends with me and you can come back next time."
As soon as the shop owner Li Dongci saw Lu Qingqing and others appear at the door of his shop, he immediately put down the account book in his hand and walked out. He was a big and strong man, but he was good at talking and he was able to narrow the distance between them with just a few words.
Lu Qingqing came here just to eat, so there was no reason for her to leave. But she also had no intention of making friends with the boss, so she didn't even look at the menu and said,
"Serve five bowls of wonton soup first, and we'll see about the others later."
When Li Dongci heard that business was coming, he immediately shouted to the kitchen staff, "Five bowls of wontons on table number five."
The guy in the kitchen quickly responded: "Okay!"
Li Dongci then said to them: "Dear guests, please wait for a moment. I will serve you the wontons when they are ready."
Lu Qingqing nodded, and Li Dongci went to get busy.
Taking advantage of this gap, Yang Liuqing took out the walnut candies and fruit pulp crisps that he had just bought.
"Eat some of this first to fill your stomach."
Lu Yaoyao loved these snacks the most. When she saw them, her eyes lit up, but she picked up the crispy candy and gave it to them before she picked up a piece to eat.
The candy is fried into a brown crispy color. It is crispy, fragrant and sweet when you bite it. Everyone falls in love with its taste.
Lu Qingqing ate crispy candies and fell into deep thought while looking at the endless stream of people.
On the streets, people were crowded together, and groups of disaster victims were shopping everywhere!
Don't know where they came from?
I don’t know if they know about the conscription of men into the Yongquanzhou area?
However, they probably don't know about this, otherwise, they wouldn't be so calm in purchasing.
After all, no local would be willing to risk being exterminated by telling them?
The reason why Liang Pei was willing to tell them, besides because he was really kind-hearted, was also because he loved her horse.
The pair of dark eyes looked at her horse infatuatedly, as if he was looking at a relative!
He thought he had concealed it well, but in fact, she had already seen that he loved horses!
He didn't want his beloved horse to fall into the hands of those cruel beasts in the government, so he told her at the risk of being found out by the beasts!
"Dear guests, your wontons are here, please enjoy!" Li Dongci came with a bowl of hot wonton noodles in soup, and successfully interrupted Lu Qingqing's thoughts.
Five bowls of steaming wontons in soup, sprinkled with a layer of emerald green onions, just look at them to whet your appetite!
After being hungry all night, they picked up the bowls and started eating while swallowing their saliva!
The taste must be excellent!
Uncle and Aunt thought that the porridge was not as delicious as the meat and vegetable porridge they cooked in the mountains.
Lu Qingqing felt that it was similar to the soup dumplings she had last night, with pork fillings plus some beans and nuts.
Lu Yaoyao and Lu Yuanzheng both felt that it was similar to eating meat buns, except that this wonton had soup.
Five people were eating a bowl of wontons, and each had his or her own opinion.
In a short while, they even finished the soup.
After breakfast and buying everything, I paid for the meal and went home immediately without going anywhere.
After all, the bustling streets now will soon become a dark tide!
A few people picked up their things and quickly walked out of the wonton restaurant, preparing to turn into an alley and take a shortcut back.
At this moment, a man covered in blood suddenly ran out from the noisy crowd and shouted at the crowd in horror:
"Run, run quickly, the Huns are coming, they have entered the city!"
