In the years of famine, the knife in my mother's hand is not bad either

"Oh no!"

"General! A group of refugees numbering over a thousand has arrived from the north, and they are heading towards the county town!"

In the garrison general's office, a soldier wearing standard leather armor ran quickly, came to the living room, knelt down, and reported what he had seen.

"You mean, the North?" After hearing the news, the garrison general showed an expression of disbelief on his face!

In the north, the area near the salt lake is saline-alkali land, so no weeds grow, no crops grow, and there are no villages at all.

Therefore, there is only one possibility for such a large number of refugees to appear in the north... They came from Beiyun County and crossed the salt lake!

"Gudong!" Thinking of this, the garrison general swallowed hard.

In this case, if refugees appear, there will definitely not be just this group!

Instead, they will gradually gather together to form a scale like a locust swarm!

When he was a child, he had only heard about it from his father's stories.

"Yes, it's the north!" The soldier responded loudly, and it could be seen that he was a little panicked.

"When I reported this, the centurion had already ordered them to be stopped. They will definitely not be allowed into the city until the general arrives!"

"Good!" The garrison commander listened and nodded in approval:

“You did a great job!”

"I'm going to the county government now and ask the princess to make the decision!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the commander guarding the north city gate ran towards the county government in casual clothes without even wearing weapons or armor.

This situation is not much better than the soldiers who came to communicate.

But when he reached the door, he had a horse to ride.

......

At the north city gate.

The villagers of Wangjia Village who were stopped looked back.

Shen Qian stood there, motionless and steady as a rock.

It was General Manager Liang who summoned him to this county city. Now that he was here, it would naturally be easier for him to show up!

After a while, Little Leo, riding on a warhorse, galloped past Shen Qian.

All the way to the city gate.

As soon as he spoke in his unique eunuch voice, the centurion on duty immediately knelt down:

"The Grand Steward has ordered that the relocated people from Wangjia Village be allowed into the city!"

The centurion listened to the order, looked up, and saw a golden token!

Although he couldn't tell whether the golden token was real or fake, he could tell the real eunuchs from the fake ones!

Especially in Luoyun County, there is an Inspection Office directly managed by eunuchs. Every day when he sees those eunuchs, he lowers his head and walks around them.

Who would dare to ask for the gold medal at this moment to check it out?

"Yes!" the centurion responded, and then shouted to the soldiers beside him:

"Let go!"

As the centurion gave the order, a group of soldiers made way.

The villagers of Wangjia Village were allowed to enter the city.

Watching Little Li riding his horse backwards, the centurion thought to himself: What did these villagers do to deserve a eunuch knocking on their door?

Hmm...the eunuch seemed to have said something about the chief steward just now?

Wait! Could it be Liang Zhaozhong, the Liang Grand Administrator, who was given the national surname and was second only to the emperor and above everyone else?

Thinking of this, his body shuddered involuntarily.

He looked cautiously towards the end of the team.

When all the villagers entered the city, at the end of the team, he suddenly saw dozens of eunuchs wearing supervisory uniforms and holding embroidered spring swords!

The eunuchs surrounded the carriage in the middle, and the hollow wood carving on the front of the carriage was a dragon!

The only person who dares to travel in this car is the Grandmaster of the royal family!

Liang Zhaozhong!

After this name popped into his mind, the centurion knelt on the ground:

"Centurion of the Northern City Garrison of Luoyun Commandery, greetings to General Liang!"

When the soldiers saw the centurion kneeling down, they all knelt down on the ground as well.

A cold voice came from the sedan chair, and everyone dared to stand up:

"Get up."

The centurion lowered his head and waited for the carriage to pass by him, then he looked cautiously at the rear of the carriage, feeling emotional: I am just a centurion from the county town, but I have the opportunity to come into such close contact with this gentleman!

It is truly a great honor!

After entering the city.

Looking at the clean streets and the tall, prosperous streetscape, the villagers of Wangjia Village expressed their heartfelt emotion:

"This is the county town! It's much more prosperous than our Beiyang County!"

"Over there, that couldn't be a brothel, right? The woman standing outside is so... so beautiful!"

"Is this a big restaurant? Just standing outside, I can tell the prices inside are expensive. I wonder who can afford to eat in there!"

"..."

As they were talking, some curious men wanted to get closer to the brothel.

The brothel girls who were originally standing at the door soliciting customers now showed disgust on their faces when they looked at the men from Wangjia Village who looked like refugees.

He took a step back and retreated into the brothel.

What's more, these looks of disgust actually made Wang Lai Zi in the crowd feel fond of them!

This look of disdain made his heart beat wildly!

He quietly returned to the team, stole his mother's bag of silver and money, watched his mother walk away, and strode towards the brothel!

With that proud and unrestrained look on his face and body, if it weren't for the dirt on his face and body, the brothel girls soliciting customers would have thought he was a wealthy regular customer!

"Where did this stinky beggar come from?"

"This is not the place for you to beg for food!" A brothel girl who was approached by Wang Laizi gently fanned the air in front of her nose, as if the stench of Wang Laizi's body penetrated into her nasal cavity.

That look of disdain coupled with the pretty little face made Wang Laizi love her from the bottom of his heart!

"how?"

"This place is open, but isn't it doing business?" Wang Laizi stretched out his hand, part of the skin of which was stained by the salt, and grabbed the woman who was speaking.

"Hey!" The woman used the folding fan in her hand to hit Wang Laizi's dirty hands to prevent him from succeeding.

Wang Laizi was not angry when he saw this.

He simply opened the package he was carrying and took out the white silver ingots inside.

At a glance, it looks like it weighs at least a hundred taels!

The woman's eyes suddenly lit up!

Although this man looked ugly and dirty, and his body was so thin that he didn't have any flesh on him.

But he actually carried so much cash with him.

Looking at the team he followed, they were obviously a group of ignorant farmers. Thinking of this, the woman's eyes rolled!

Take it to heart!

She put her hands directly on his arms and let Wang Laizi rub her body.

The disgust in her mouth disappeared, replaced by a sweet voice:

"Uncle~"

"I am a little girl with poor eyesight~"

"Sir, please come with me to the private room on the second floor!"

As soon as the words fell, the hearts of several women around him became hot!

One hundred taels of silver!

An average poor scholar would come here to have a drink and spend only a few coins.

Even wealthy businessmen only have a few dozen.

Wang Laizi can be said to be the first person to show off his wealth in a brothel!

In the eyes of these brothel girls, this is a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered. Naturally, they are envious and want to get a piece of the pie!

"Sister Qingluan, let me serve this gentleman with you!"

"We are good friends, and I won't tolerate it if my elder sister eats alone without my younger sister~"

"Sister, you'll need someone to play music and dance, right? I'm an expert at playing the zither~"

"..."

Wang Laizi felt the passion of the girls in the brothel and felt like he was floating in the air!

It’s like entering paradise on earth!

What a great enjoyment!

Before, he lived in Wangjia Village and was hated by everyone. How could he have been treated like this?
