Chapter 101: where is food
Chapter 101 Where is the food
Under the arrangement of Ye Jinkui and others, the Shao family joined the team in an orderly manner. At Shao Tianqing's insistence, the Shao family took out all their remaining sporadic money and food and handed them over to Ye Anlan for unified arrangement.
Ye Anlan was very happy, but Ye Anlan didn't accept it. She told Shao Tianqing, "I did not confiscate the personal belongings of other members who joined before you."
It's not because of her kindness, it's because of those three melons and two dates, she really didn't notice it.
After assigning all the Shao family members to other people to be responsible in groups, Ye Anlan first asked the aunts and aunts headed by Mrs. Li to distribute some porridge and steamed pancakes to the Shao family before dawn, and then asked her to Pei Huaiyu, the chief temporary logistics manager, provided the Shao family with two mules to pull the cart, so that the elderly and children on their side could take turns to rest in the cart.
As for the sick children, Ye Anlan took their pulse and gave them an injection, but did not prescribe any medicine for them. She told Shao Tianqing, "It's all caused by being hungry and tired. You don't need to take medicine, just take it easy."
As soon as she said this, these children immediately got a fixed position on the mule cart, and the children's parents even saved half of their own food, and planned to leave it for their children to eat later.
Ye Anlan saw it but didn't express anything. There was no way, the food in her hand was not enough for them to eat and drink with their stomachs open.
Suddenly there are more than a thousand people, and she doesn't know what food everyone will eat in the future, and where she is going to figure out.
She was worrying, Li Jing, who took one step and watched three steps, walked over to give her advice, "We can visit those bandits and horse bandits along the way."
Ye Anlan:
Ye Anlan gave a thumbs up, "You still have an idea."
According to the information returned by the guards in charge of exploring the road, the rebels in this county are not as ruthless as the two brothers of the Yang family.
But because of this, they have always been very strict about the food in their sphere of influence.
Not only the original dozens of grain shops in the counties and towns, but all the grains stored by digging doors and thieves were forcibly purchased at extremely low prices, which caused those grain shops to lose money and pay to grandma’s house. , can have the cheek to move all of them back to the county at the moment of harvest.
As for what the common people eat, the dog-headed military division of this group of rebels thought of a way.
In their sphere of influence, the people have to pay 60% of the new grain every year to offset taxes. If 60% of the food enters the warehouse of the rebel army, it will never come out again. For the remaining 40% of the food, the rebel army will issue wooden signs to the people who have worked hard for a year on a household basis after collecting the food.
Relying on the wooden sign and the note proving the population of each family given by Lizheng, the common people can buy a small amount of old grain from the grain store opened by the rebel army every month, which can barely keep the whole family from starving to death.
Pinching with hands like this is actually no different from strengthening the wall and clearing the field.
Ordinary people don’t talk about selling grain to others privately. Whether they can support their own family or not depends on whether the rebels in the Lizhenghe grain store are in a good mood and whether they are giving face.
On the contrary, it was the thieves who fell into the grass and turned into bandits. Because they robbed passing merchants and local people a lot, there was a lot of food in the warehouse.
The two of them leaned together in front of Ye Anlan's simple map, murmured for a while, and then Ye Anlan divided the main body of the team into two groups.
One group has a large number of people, and Ye Jinkui, Pei Huaiyu, Zheng Fengshou, Wang Tai and others are fully responsible. Although the other group has a small number of people, there are no old, weak, women, children, vehicles and supplies to hold them back.
Ye Anlan, who always took the lead, led Yang Xiaotao, Wei Zhen, Li Jing, Changan, Qingji, and a total of 200 members of the guard team, and rode straight to the bandit den sent back by the guard team in charge of exploring the road.
When they arrived at the place, everyone handed over the horses to the guards responsible for exploring the road, and then under the leadership of Ye Anlan, they prepared to step on the trap on foot.
Yes, trap. The group of bandits entrenched in the nearby forest set up a crude trap on Ye Anlan's only way.
According to the members of the **** team in charge of exploring the road, the bandits placed a lot of big rocks on both sides of the mountain road that could fall down and hit people with a single push.
At the end of the boulder, they also placed a round tree stump, which just filled the already narrow mountain road, and the bandits used it to block faster horses and vehicles, preventing the "fat sheep" from escaping.
A certain member of the guard who made himself look like other refugees, who looked so poor that a dog would dislike him, swaggered over and climbed over when he saw the tree stump, but the bandits who hid on the mountain to watch the situation from a distance did not No one paid him any attention.
Even when he turned back after a while, the bandits on the mountain who were in charge of today's robbery still didn't take this guard member who was dressed in rags and was shaking while walking.
What they didn't know was that just as they were staring at the guard member and laughing vigorously, the teammate of the guard member had already sneaked up the mountain.
These people have been talked about by Ye Anlan a lot, and they are very cautious in their actions. After finding out the number of bandits, their hiding places, and the location of their stockade, these people immediately went down the mountain quietly and went back to Ye Anlan and the others. Reported.
If it weren't for this, Li Jing wouldn't immediately think of coming to rob the bandits.
"Put those empty boxes on your back." Ye Anlan motioned to the members of the **** she brought, "The swords are also displayed, and we have to pretend that we have a rich background and money."
In order to look more realistic, Ye Anlan asked Li Jing to change into his only set of satin clothes.
This dress was taken by Chang An at the beginning, and the original intention was to let his young master have a decent dress for emergencies on certain occasions, but Ye Anlan used it for fishing before the clothes played their original role. The bandits are gone_(:з」∠)_
Changan regretted that he didn't think to guard against Ye Anlan. If he had known that this girl would not let go of even a piece of his young master's clothes, he shouldn't have packed the package in front of this girl╭(╯^╰)╮
Ye Anlan: Even if she hasn't seen this dress before, she still wants to get Li Jing's idea. Among them, Li Jing has the most noble temperament┓(`)┏
The remaining people, including Ye Anlan herself, are farmers, military households, servants, and guards per capita. Who else can she use without Li Jing?
As for bringing Zhou Mingzhe or Pei Huaixiu who are useless to stay in the main force, they can be dragged down, it is not cumbersome enough.
They are here to rob, not to sightsee. If they bring someone who has no ability to protect themselves, then why are they eating enough and having nothing to do.
