Chapter 131 Hurt each other
Once people get busy, time will pass extremely fast.
Ye Anlan and the others spent half a month traveling to all the towns in Fei County and Mengyin County, and bought nearly 80% of the supplies Pei Huaiyu requested.
At the same time, Mengshan also built nearly 500 farmyards and opened up nearly 20,000 mu of wasteland.
These 20,000 mu of wasteland have all been planted with various crops that Pei Huaiyu first solicited opinions from old farmers, and then asked Ye Anlan and the others to purchase according to the list.
Although Ye Anlan never went back to the mountains, Yang Xiaotao, who went back to the mountains frequently, was always happy to describe the current situation in the mountains to Ye Anlan.
“. The house is not liveable yet, but after two or three days of drying, the elderly and children should be able to move into the house and sleep.”
"Mr. Pei also organized manpower to dig the canal. The old beggar you picked up earlier, he actually really understands water and water conservancy."
"Mr. Pei even asked someone to dig a well. It turns out that wells can be drilled in the mountains. I thought we could only drink stream water all the time."
"Master Pei has divided the fields into households according to what you said, and let them be responsible for their own piece of land."
"And what are you talking about. The reward and punishment system, yes, it is the reward and punishment system. Mr. Pei has already been done by someone. Here, he asked me to bring a copy for you to see first."
"In addition, he asked me to remind you that the busy farming will be over in about ten days. He said that you have to send him back the artisans who can repair the city walls and make organs."
"Ah, by the way, the second girl asked me to tell you that she has completed all the tasks you assigned her before, and asked if you could bring her another medical book back."
"My mother and the others agreed after seeing the spinning wheel and the loom, but they are a little anxious because they still can't spin and weave."
“.”
Different from the careless boys and Wei Zhen's taciturnity, Yang Xiaotao still has great potential when gossiping.
With her chattering back and forth, even if one is on the mountain and the other is down the mountain, Ye Anlan and Pei Huaiyu can still hurt each other smoothly and naturally_(:з」∠)_
Two people who are equally busy, no one let the other go┓(`)┏
"It's not easy to buy the rest." After all, it's not food, salt and iron, or medicinal materials. She can only buy it in batches. "Since he is in a hurry, then we will focus on finding people and supplementing by shopping." Bar."
Ye Anlan stroked her chin and thought about the countermeasures in her mind, "It happens that I have two promising craftsmen, so I will find a way to get them up the mountain."
As Ye Anlan said before, in today's world, except for a small group of people who have both money and soldiers, everyone else's life is very difficult.
The same goes for craftsmen, who were originally defined as low-class, in today's world, they have suffered so much unfair treatment that there is no place to talk about it.
Ye Anlan has inquired about craftsmen who are in trouble in the past half a month. One of them happened to have participated in the restoration of the city wall of Fei County.
This man is dumb and an orphan. He was brought by a teacher since he was a child, and he was carefully raised by him as an apprentice and son. By the time he was twenty, he had learned all the skills of the teacher, but because of Is a mute and has been in a rough situation.
In the past, the master was alive, and he was protected by the master. Later, the master died, and the mute became the main target of being excluded and bullied by his peers.
Because he can't speak, he can't find a job most of the time. Occasionally, a repeat customer who knows his craft quite well finds him, and his colleagues will try their best to grab a job from him.
If that was the case, Ye Anlan wouldn't be following him either. After all, if life is just difficult, the average person cannot make up his mind to leave a familiar place and start a new life.
But coincidentally, just three or four days ago, this mute craftsman was recruited together with other craftsmen in Fei County to repair the city wall.
The mute craftsman was serious about his work and had good craftsmanship. The leader of the rebel army who was in charge of this matter noticed him and praised him a few words casually, but unexpectedly, these two compliments, which were not taken out of his heart, actually brought death to the mute.
A certain craftsman who worked with him, because he was jealous that he was favored by the little leader of the rebel army, felt that he deliberately took his chance, so he took advantage of the dark sky and no one was paying attention when the work was over, and directly took him out of their work The child's place was pushed down.
The mute survived the fall, but because he broke his leg, he was no longer able to participate in the subsequent restoration of the city wall.
Because of his poor family, he couldn't afford the money to go to the clinic to see his leg, so the mute could only lie at home silently, watching his injured leg become red, swollen and inflamed, and the pain was unbearable.
It was at this time that Ye Anlan approached him. Not only did she heal the mute's leg injury, but she also promised to give him a basic salary of two taels of silver every month. If he behaved well, Ye Anlan also promised to continue to pay him. wage increase.
The mute is an honest man, Ye Anlan owes him a favor, he doesn't even ask for money, he just gestures, expressing that he will help Ye Anlan with his work and repay her for saving his life.
Of course Ye Anlan wouldn't bully an honest person like this, the two of them competed for a while, but in the end the mute couldn't persuade Ye Anlan.
Ye Anlan let him heal his injuries for a month, and then let Qingji go down the mountain in person, and led someone to carry the mute craftsman up the mountain from the foot of the mountain on a stretcher.
As for the other blacksmith that Ye Anlan was optimistic about, he was bought out of the prison by Ye Anlan by bribery of the jailer.
This man has just turned 20 years old this year. He has no father and no mother. He was an apprentice with his uncle who opened a blacksmith's shop since he was a child.
About two months ago, the elder brother of the rebel leader’s second son, the sixth concubine’s concubine, wanted to forcefully buy his uncle’s blacksmith shop.
Later, his uncle and cousin died in the prison for no apparent reason, his aunt was drowned in the water tank by the strong man who came to forcibly take over the shop, and his younger siblings chose to wipe their own necks because they didn't want to be humiliated. .
Originally a good family, in a blink of an eye there were only his cousin and nephew who were sent to him by his aunt in advance to avoid disaster.
This man is a **** person, entrusting his sister and nephew to his aunt who also lives in the town, and he entered the city with a copper coin and a butcher knife.
Within a few days, the elder brother of the rebel leader's second son, the sixth concubine's concubine, and his group of younger brothers were all poisoned with arsenic by this man and died, and he was also arrested and put in prison to wait for his life.
If Ye Anlan hadn't spent a lot of money to redeem him and asked the jailer to replace him with a dead body, he would have to be sent to Caishikou in two days for his punishment.
After sending the two of them up the mountain one after another, along with the blacksmith's sister and nephew, Ye Anlan left Fei County with a team of 100 people pretending to be refugees.
She took people to the northwest direction, intending to go to the states and counties she passed by before, and pick up some cultural and craftsmen who couldn't survive.
