Traveling through time and space to become a concubine's daughter, leading the whole village to

When the two yamen runners saw Uncle Kang like this, they knew that Uncle Kang was a man who was incompetent.

When it comes to applying for new household registration and travel permits, Xu Miao has no say. If Uncle Kang doesn't ask them for help, what's the point of asking Xu Miao for help?

Xu Miao ignored Uncle Kang's pleading, turned around, took out two silver ingots from his pocket and handed them to the yamen runner.

Xu Miao bowed to the two yamen runners and said, "My dear brothers, is there any way to speed up this household registration matter?"

"I'm worried that soon all these Kangzhuang villagers will gather at the city gate, which will really hinder traffic."

The yamen runner took Xu Miao's silver, his expression softened, and he smiled at her, saying, "Miss Xu, wait here. We'll go back to the government office and discuss with the city lord to see if we can get you a collective household registration."

"It's easy to get a collective household registration, but when you want to separate these Kangzhuang residents, you still have to go to the government office."

When Uncle Kang heard the yamen runner say they were going to register them as a collective household, he quickly interrupted and said, "Sir, let's register them as a collective household. We Kangzhuang people will never be separated!"

Upon seeing this, the bailiff rode back on horseback to discuss matters with the city lord.

After the yamen runners rode away, Uncle Kang followed Xu Miao awkwardly and said, "Master, I've only been in charge of Kangzhuang for a few days."

"The old village chief died at the hands of bandits. I had no choice but to be pushed out by everyone to take charge of Kangzhuang's affairs temporarily."

"Once I get to Hanjia Village, I won't care about anything else. I'll just farm honestly."

Uncle Kang also knew that what he did was not right. He was just an honest farmer and would never deal with government officials.

Once he arrived at Hanjia Village, he would never do the job of welcoming and seeing off guests again. This was not a job for an honest man like him.

Xu Miao waved his hand and didn't say much. He asked Uncle Kang if there were any teachers outside Dingzhou City.

"Uncle Kang, you've been living outside the city for a while. Do you know any teachers?"

"Hanjia Village also wants to hire a teacher back. We will pay the teacher one tael of silver per month."

Uncle Kang nodded quickly: "There is a teacher. There is a poor scholar who just came here and lives next to us. I will go back to find him now."

Seeing that Xu Miao didn't say much to him, Uncle Kang quickly slipped away and ran back to find the scholar.

Where can you find such a good thing as being paid one or two taels of silver a month? Scholars are still more valuable.

Xu Miao and Han Laoer waited at the city gate for a while, and then people from Kangzhuang arrived one after another.

Most of these people from Kangzhuang were wearing tattered and thin coats and holding a small package in their hands.

The package probably contains all their belongings.

The two yamen runners also returned to the city gate from the government office and waited for all the people in Kangzhuang to arrive so that they could register them collectively.

The last people to arrive from Kangzhuang were a few old and young people who came in wheelbarrows. They were probably too sick to walk, so they borrowed wheelbarrows from somewhere and pushed them from a distance to the city gate.

By the time all the people from Kangzhuang gathered outside Dingzhou City, it was already lunchtime.

After finishing their business, Uncle Fu and Han Lao San rushed to Xu Miao's side. Looking at the people from Kangzhuang gathered outside the city, Uncle Fu whispered to Xu Miao, "Miss Xu, do you think these people from Kangzhuang can do it?"

Uncle Fu saw that most of the people from Kangzhuang had dull expressions and lifeless eyes, and he couldn't help but worry about Xu Miao.

Xu Miao had been observing the people of Kangzhuang, and only when he saw that most of them were young and middle-aged people, just as Uncle Kang had said, did he feel relieved.

Seeing Uncle Fu's worry, Xu Miao consoled him, "These people have been homeless for quite a while, so they must be feeling sad."

No one can be happy after fleeing from famine and losing so many relatives.

When all the people in Kangzhuang arrived, the two yamen runners didn't even have time to eat lunch, and hurried to process the household registration and travel permits.

Uncle Kang also brought the teacher to Xu Miao, who briefly asked about the teacher's situation and asked the yamen runners to get the teacher's household registration and travel permit in advance.

Waiting to go to Hanjia Village with the people from Kangzhuang.

Collective household registration and travel permits are easy to handle. Just register the names, ages, and genders of these people in Kangzhuang together and stamp them with the official seal, and you're done.

After all these formalities were completed, one of the yamen runners loudly announced in front of all the people in Kangzhuang: "The government will give you ten taels of silver as travel expenses for you people in Kangzhuang to go to Hanjia Village."

"The government only agreed to pay for this travel expense out of respect for your master's family."

"I hope you Kangzhuang people will live a good life in Hanjia Village, and don't think about causing trouble for the master family!"

These two yamen runners had just accepted Xu Miao's silver and went back to the city lord, saying a lot of good things about Xu Miao.

After hearing what the yamen runner said, the mayor of Dingzhou City remembered that Xu Miao was introduced by General Liu and was also a relative of General Zhou, so he allocated ten taels of silver from the government to Kangzhuang people as travel expenses.

Otherwise, the city lord would not have thought about the travel expenses.

Seeing how capable the yamen runners were, Xu Miao quickly bowed to them and thanked them. He then gave Han Lao San a look, and Han Lao San ran over to the yamen runners and took them into the city.

Han Laosan had money in his pocket, and he knew what to do.

Seeing that Xu Miao and his team had basically completed the recruitment process, the personal guards said goodbye to Xu Miao and hurried back to report to General Liu.

After the personal guards left, Xu Miao took this group of Kangzhuang villagers into the city and came to the inn that Uncle Fu had found for them.

The inn is a large courtyard with seven or eight rooms. Although it is a bit simple, it is well equipped with daily necessities.

The inn has a stove and cookware, and Uncle Fu has also prepared food in the inn.

When they arrived at the inn, Uncle Kang directed the women in Kangzhuang to light a fire and cook.

The men were busy moving the sick, old and young into the room, and then went out to help clean and tidy up.

Kang Zhuzi took Xu Miao to see the sick elderly people in Kangzhuang. After the children had examined and treated them, Xu Miao asked Uncle Fu to take Han Laosan to get medicine for these patients.

Most of these sick people, young and old, were weak due to malnutrition. Some of them had fevers caused by colds, and they could get better after taking some medicine.

After Xu Miao told Uncle Kang and others the results of the diagnosis, the villagers in Kangzhuang also felt relieved.

Seeing that everyone in Kangzhuang had settled down, Xu Miao called Uncle Kang aside, took out the silver he had prepared in advance, and handed it to Uncle Kang.

Xu Miao: "Uncle Kang, these ten taels of silver are the travel expenses sent by the government. You can use them on your journey."

Xu Miao first handed Uncle Kang the silver sent by the Dingzhou City government. Then, Xu Miao handed Uncle Kang another fifty-eight taels of silver.

Xu Miao pointed at the silver and said to Uncle Kang, "I just saw that the household register shows 58 people in Kangzhuang. Here are 58 taels of silver."

"This money is your settlement allowance for the first year in Kangzhuang. You have the final say on how to use it."

"I've already asked Uncle Fu to pay for the inn you're staying in temporarily, so just stay here with peace of mind."

"Rest here for two days. Wait for the convoy that's delivering timber to Hanjia Village to load the timber, and then follow them back to Hanjia Village."

Because Xu Miao and her friends needed a large quantity of wood, the wood stall owner had to prepare for several days to get all the wood ready.

These few days are just the right time for these sick old and young people to recover. Otherwise, they would have been very uncomfortable after walking all this way.

Uncle Kang saw that Xu Miao had considered everything for them and had no intention of dragging the villagers of Kangzhuang to their deaths.

He knelt down in front of Xu Miao and said solemnly, "Master, on behalf of the fifty-eight people in Kangzhuang, I thank you for your concern."

"Master, don't worry. As long as we arrive in Hanjia Village, we will definitely do our job well. Master, we will do whatever you ask us to do!"

Uncle Kang expressed his sincerity to Xu Miao.
