I traveled through ancient times to escape famine with my arch-rival, the movie star.

Attack with all your strength if things don't go your way.

It was he who was blinded by the recent harmony.

Yazhou.

……

The next day, some people chose to stay here, but when they passed by the county government office, they found that the refugees were turned away.

Shen Ying got off the car, blended in with them, and chatted for a while. When she came back, her expression didn't change much, but she felt even more anxious in her heart.

Because, the police officers who maintain order revealed that no matter how many such people there are, they will have to be centrally controlled. They may be expelled or dispersed to various villages, and even the port may have to be cordoned off.

She hurried on in silence, and the people from the Shen family followed her.

When people who had walked with them for a while chose to give up and move on, they were not shaken. After seeing the scene of rotting corpses in the river with their own eyes, the Shen family only wanted to stay somewhere farther, safer and more stable.

The Yazhou that was previously envisioned is the place where everyone thinks they can live in.

After dawn, Shen Ying and Qi Yanchuan's subtle changes in mentality were not noticed by others.

But the communication on the road did not decrease, it just seemed that the intimate feeling turned into a stereotyped discussion.

Finally, four days later, the group was only twenty kilometers away from the port.

This distance won’t take half a day.

However, Shen Ying encountered some difficulties when looking for a way to take a boat locally, because... there were too many people.

Whether they are fleeing famine early or going south to do business, the fleet's recruitment has been scheduled until the end of next month.

If Shen Ying makes a reservation now, she will have to pay a deposit of twenty taels of silver, and she can board the ship on the first day of the next month or the last day of the next month.

The fleet would occasionally stop for supplies along the way, and there would be local doctors following the fleet, but the treatment of the livestock was not guaranteed.

Even this is the lowest-class multi-passenger ship.

There were just a few boatmen, two sailors, a ship owner, and two or three odd jobs.

Shen Ying asked if there was a higher configuration.

Ancient ships are bound to be no more advanced than modern shipbuilding and navigation technology. She hopes that at least she can have more professional helpers so that she will not be in a panic and helpless in the event of an unexpected situation.

Moreover, they were running for their lives and did not want to follow the rules, but to cut in line.

As long as there is money, "We are willing to pay double the price." Shen Ying gritted her teeth and said.

The two cousins, Shen Fengshou and Shen Duocai, who came with her, glanced at her slightly but did not refute what she said.

Because grandpa came here to ask them to protect Shen Ying, not to refute Shen Ying.

"This... It's not like there aren't other people who have added money, but we can only wait a little longer. Maybe someone will cancel. There are temporary cancellations and by-boats every month. I'll keep an eye out for you then."

Shen Ying didn't want this kind of answer. Generally speaking, this sentence meant that there was no hope.

She has been through many battles and will not be easily dismissed. She said that the fleet does not need to worry about food during the journey and that she can be responsible for the fleet's meals. She is also willing to give a bottle of fine wine from her family's collection as a reward to the manager in front of her.

The dark-skinned steward paused. "This puts me in a difficult position."

"Well, I'll come back tomorrow. Fine wine is not just boasting. If I sell it, I can sell it for fifty taels. Tomorrow, I will bring good wine."

The manager did not refuse directly. Shen Ying walked out of the boat, said goodbye to her family without stopping, and drove towards the beach.

The people in the shipping company are more professional and efficient, but if we can find some people who have boats at home, we can also travel by contacting a few more households.

She seemed calm and composed as she walked along with everyone, but in fact, she was more anxious and worried than anyone else.

But the more anxious and urgent she is, the more she cannot just pin her hopes on one possibility, nor will she just make one preparation.

"According to the momentum of refugees gathering, ten days, at most ten days, is my safety bottom line." Shen Ying drove and arrived at the seaside fishing village according to the instructions.

A few fishermen who were repairing their fishing nets saw a horse-drawn carriage coming, and they were not surprised, after all, this was a fishing village near the port.

Horse-drawn carriages often passed by.

But when the carriage stopped beside them and asked if there was any captain here, they became more interested.

"Who are you and what do you want to do with the captain of the ship?" The captain of the ship is usually the leader of a fleet formed by civilian forces who owns large ships and receives small boats and fishermen who come to seek refuge.

Shen Ying wanted to find such people, of course, in order to use the money they earned from catching fish in exchange for their permission to sail all the way to the destination, or near the destination.

You can leave in sections, or in any other way, but you must leave before the local authorities take any action or control!

"Oh, my family is planning to develop in other places, and we want to discuss renting a ship with the captain. If you have any useful information... this is a small gift from me."

Shen Ying took out a handful of copper coins, which made several fishermen's eyes light up.

"The captain's surname is Gao. He just went out two days ago. He will probably be back the day after tomorrow or the morning of the day after tomorrow."

"His ship is big, and some caravans have rented it before, but the price is not cheap. Ten taels of silver per time."

"How can it be ten taels of silver? Do you think it's your canoe?"

When Shen Ying saw that they mentioned the captain of the ship, she was not afraid, frightened or repulsive. It seemed that this captain was at least not a bully.

"Then I'll come back the day after tomorrow." Shen Ying gave them five copper coins each and drove away.

After walking a distance, Shen Ying entered the mall in the car and found a three-liter coarse porcelain jar as quickly as possible. She found Moutai in the mall, three and a half bottles of Moutai, which were eight-tenths full. They were covered with a 'lid' made of red cloth and a wooden cork, temporarily completing the disguise.

Returning to the inn where everyone was temporarily staying, Shen Ying took out the drinks and showed them off in front of everyone.

There are some contributions that cannot be repaid, and speaking them out would only add to the burden on each other. Shen Ying would not argue too much with them, but she also could not be a good person by paying for everything herself.

Therefore, he deliberately said that he spent ten taels of silver to buy this jar of wine: "I have no money left, and I am leaving alone today. I will find a place to sell the headdress that the young lady of the Ma family gave me when I was cooking for the Ma family team. I guess we need to pool together the boat fare."

Mr. Shen continued, "That's natural. It doesn't make sense for a little girl like you to shoulder the expenses of the entire family. I'll arrange for your grandmother to keep the money."

Before setting off, break the whole into small pieces.

Now that I need it, I can put the pieces together again.

This may be a situation that can only occur in a relatively harmonious family.

The next day, Grandma Shen came over and gave Shen Ying a bag of money.

There were small pieces of silver, copper coins, and even gold earrings and silver rings.

"Your grandfather said that this is 40 taels, and it will all be yours from now on. If it's not enough, go as far as you can. It's safer here than staying in our hometown."

"Okay." Shen Ying took over the family's belongings and said solemnly: "I will use them well."

Grandma Shen turned around, thought for a moment, and then turned back. "Women, you should still put your natal family first. Only your natal family can help you at a critical moment.

Last time, I, forget it, let it be."

Why should I explain to a junior that the reason I went to Shen Ying's mother several times last time to ask for some things to distribute to other families was also to maintain the relationship.

Shen Ying tilted her head. Why did Grandma Shen always leave half of her words unsaid?

After a nap, Shen Ying changed into a more neat dress and combed her hair neatly. Her two cousins ​​helped her hold the wine jar, while the other helped to protect it.

After mentioning the ten taels of silver for the wine, the two men became cautious.

Shen Ying found the shipping manager from yesterday, and the other party's eyes were always glancing at the wine jar next to Shen Ying.
