Like ordinary businessmen, he asked for some rewards from the people of Min County who wanted to go to Anping with him.

"Twenty cents per person. Those who don't have money can buy on credit first."

You Yi said to these people:

"Oh, by the way, this money does not cover your food and drink.

You must bring dry food with you. Our caravan is only responsible for protecting your safety. If you encounter any disease or something like that, please leave the team automatically, otherwise we will expel you."

It can be said that this is the businessman's pursuit of profit taken to the extreme.

Zhang Jinming and Luo Caiyue had also been waiting here for a long time. After hearing You Yi's words, Luo Caiyue felt relieved a little.

Collecting money to do things is a matter of course.

The fact that You Yi would accept the money meant that he was willing to protect them along the way.

If it was a free business, Luo Caiyue would still wonder why You Yi was so kind to help them.

There is no free lunch in the world. If You Yi is willing to take them along for free, Luo Caiyue will doubt You Yi's identity and true identity.

After all, it is such a thankless business. It is hard to imagine whether You Yi will take them to Anping or take them to the illegal mines and sell them to the big landowners as miners.

Luo Caiyue was a little cautious, and only relaxed after You Yi told her the price.

You Yi considered it carefully before setting the price at twenty cents. He had traveled far and wide and knew the psychology of some buyers best.

He really didn't want to take the money, and considering the vigilance of the people in Min County, they would probably not leave with him.

Twenty cents per person, neither more nor less.

It's just the money to buy your life.

Even if a family has no money, they can still gather enough by searching around at home.

Zhang Jinming looked at Luo Caiyue's reaction, and after Luo Caiyue nodded slightly, he brought his belongings and was the first to go to You Yi to sign up.

The people around are still hesitating.

There are not many people as decisive as Luo Caiyue.

Twenty cents, for a family of five, that would be one hundred cents.

Moreover, You Yi refused to give in at all. The uniform fee for both children and adults was twenty cents.

You Yiyou once said that those who have no money can write a document.

But the people were simple-minded. They seldom bought things on credit for fear that they would not be able to pay them back. They had never written an IOU and were afraid that they would still be able to barely make ends meet when they arrived in Anping.

Then I can’t pay back the money.

People who have this idea are usually farmers who make a living by farming.

The Tianchi Dynasty had heavy taxes. After paying the head tax and land tax on the land they cultivated throughout the year, they could not save much. It was a rare event that they could feed themselves enough in a year.

Not to mention those who don’t have any land of their own and have to rent land from landlords.

"Why don't we just not go? I think it's pretty good in Mino County. Although there's little land, at least we can survive."

Ye Ting from the Ye family sighed and said that their Ye family had lived in Suo County for several generations, from generation to generation.

The oldest members of the Ye family are Ye Wei and Niu Yin.

They had three sons and two daughters.

The eldest son is Ye Ting who just spoke.

Ye Ting also gave birth to two sons and a daughter, and Ye Wei's second son and youngest son also got married and had children.

Such a big family would have to pay a lot of money.

Their Ye family has been barely surviving until now because of the large population and small land area, and the food they grow is not enough, so they have to rely on other coarse grains to survive.

And how could the Ye family come up with these few hundred coins?

Ye Wei came out with Ye Ting. He didn't say anything for a long time after hearing his son's words. It was not until a quarter of an hour later that he walked tremblingly in front of You Yi with his crutches:

"There are fifteen people in our Ye family, and the total amount is three hundred coins, all on credit."

"Dad! This is asking for your son's life!"

"hiss."

A group of people exclaimed.

Among so many people, someone suddenly bought something on credit, and it was three hundred coins.

Most of the people from Suo County who were waiting for the carriage today had not made up their minds yet. When they heard Ye Wei's words, they all looked at the father and son.

Someone in the town of Suo County knew Ye Wei. He took one look at Ye Wei and then folded his hands, looking at the two of them with amusement:

"Tsk, this is several hundred coins. Your Ye family is so poor, can you afford it? It will be funny if you can't pay it back later."

"Three hundred coins, are the Ye family so bold?"

"Yes, Dad, what will we do if he can't pay us back by then?" Ye Ting said anxiously.

"What do you know? I am old, but I am not dead yet. Master You, we in the Ye family buy on credit."

"Dad." Ye Ting spoke weakly, trying to stop Ye Wei.

Ye Wei ignored it.

He directly pressed his fingerprint on the IOU that You Yi handed to him.

At this moment, Ye Wei knew clearly what his eldest son was thinking.

The eldest son is selfish and afraid of taking responsibility.

Ye Wei saw through Ye Ting's plan. He just didn't want the IOU of 300 Wen to fall on his shoulders.

After signing, Ye Wei left.

He is still the boss of the Ye family, and he has the final say on whether to go to Anping or not.

Ye Ting was afraid of owing money and didn't go to Anping, so he just pretended that he didn't have this son.

Suo County is a lower county. If the fighting continues like this, there will be casualties. Those who will die will not be the soldiers but ordinary people like them.

From the very beginning, Suo County was attacked by bandits who robbed their food. The Ye family had only enough food to last for one year, and a while ago, they were requisitioned for food by the Nanwan army. If they were not given food, they would have to join the army.

Ye Wei's palms and backs are all flesh, so he can only give him food.

Only half of the food was given to them, which was not enough for them to survive the winter.

Ye Wei was still struggling, but when he saw that the Zhang couple didn't have much money, he decided to go with Anping. Although Caiyue was mute, she was very smart.

Since the Ye family would starve to death anyway, they might as well go to Anping and give it a try.

The Ye family bought on credit, and many other families with extra money paid the twenty cents.

The rest are either undecided or don't have much money.

Most people are unwilling to buy on credit, and those who are as firm in their attitude as Ye Wei and Luo Caiyue are still a minority.

You didn't know when Beiyang would attack, nor did he know whether the local officials in Nanwan would find out that he had abducted people from Suo County to Anping.

He was not in a hurry to return to Anping. There were more than fifty soldiers in this team, and ten of them were enough to escort these civilians.

The rest of the group continued with him to other parts of the South Bay.

Suo County is poor, so You Yi counted the number of people who were willing to go to Anping, and it was not a small number.

Hundreds of people are residents of Min County who know the news. If You Yi stays for a few more days, this number will probably increase.

With so many people, plus Mu Qing's support, there should be no problem in reaching Guangsha safely.

You Yi continued to move on to the next destination, while the migration team that Zhang Jinming was in was also slowly moving towards Anping.
