Chapter 1761 My hometown is occupied

Qin Sanlang is right.

A few days later, another group of soldiers passed by to pick up their relatives. The village still sold a bucket of water for fifty cents.

The soldiers were furious after hearing this and asked them: "A bucket of water costs fifty cents. Is the water in your village made of gold?"

The gangsters in the village stopped at the entrance of the village with hoes and said, "Have you heard of the drought in the northwest? Water in the northwest is so expensive. Even if you are soldiers of the imperial court, you have to pay for water!"

This group of soldiers traveled for a day, were hungry and thirsty, and talked with the villagers. After failing to reach an agreement, they went to report to hundreds of households.

These three hundred households were not as easy to talk to as Qin Sanlang and others. After hearing the report, they directly led troops into the village to collect water and beat a group of villagers. Even the village chief was slapped twice.

After he finished, he cursed the villagers: "You black-hearted thing, I went to fight against the thieves to protect your people and animals, and you still have to collect money from us for a drink while passing by. Do you still have a conscience? If you dare to do this kind of black-hearted business again, We will report it to the general and ask him to submit a memorial to go to the capital and raid your village!"

The village chief and the villagers were beaten and screamed and cried, but they did not stop selling water... There was a shortage of water in the northwest, so anyone who could dig a well in the village would sell water.

But they learned their lesson well. If any soldiers passed by, they would only charge them five cents for a bucket of water. If the other party was not happy, they would give it away for free.

As for the outsiders passing by, they still sell a bucket of water for fifty cents. If they see a rich person who is easy to bully, they will sell it for a hundred cents a bucket.

Gu Jinli and the others set out on the tenth day of September. Since they had plenty of time, the team walked slowly. Only when they were about to miss the station did they speed up.

So Gu Jinli was very relaxed along the way. The food and accommodation were good, and he could find a place to take a shower every three days.

Mrs. Kuang said she was guilty of taking a bath when there was such a shortage of water in the northwest? A bucket of water costs tens of cents, can you wash it? !

However, Gu Jinli didn't care about this. It was Brother Qin who took care of the accommodation and water on the way. Brother Qin got good water for her, so how could she not wash up?

"Xiaoyu, I bought a big red fruit. I'll cut it up for you to eat." Qin Sanlang came in carrying a basket with red apples in it.

Today we are staying at an inn. When Gu Jinli arrived at the inn, he asked for hot water and washed himself from head to toe. Now he just came out of the shower. Seeing this, his eyes filled with joy. He walked over and asked, "Where did it come from?"

Qin Sanlang shook his head: "Yao Wan knew what she was going through and had looked down upon her before. However, the two of them fought desperately in Guanlu County for several months. Yao Wan was impressed by her, fell in love with her, and went to the Tang family to arrange their marriage. Tang Ling didn't agree at first, but later Yao Wan talked to her, and after the knot in her heart was resolved, she finally accepted Yao Wan."

As for the Yao family

"The Yao family was afraid that Yao Wan would die if he went to the battlefield, so they married Yao Wan early and gave birth to a son. However, the wife died of illness two years ago, leaving only a son who was a few years old. Yao Wan married a step-in-law, and the Yao family The requirements are not high, as long as Yao Wan is happy."

In addition, Tang Ling got to know doctors and learned how to treat wounded soldiers by taking care of Mrs. Lin in Guanlu County.

Yao Wan was originally a small flag leader, but due to his meritorious service, he has now been promoted to the general flag. The two of them are happily preparing for a happy event.

After hearing this, Gu Jinli sighed for a while: "Those who are self-reliant can always find a way out of desperate situations. Tang Ling is great."

If someone else had encountered the same situation as Tang Ling, they would probably have committed suicide a long time ago.

After hearing this, Qin Sanlang agreed very much.

The next day, the familiar sound of the gong sounded again at Mao hour. The soldiers and their relatives were busy, and after collecting enough drinking water, they set off again.

After walking for a few more days, we arrived outside Long'an Mansion.

However, they did not stay longer because the current Long'an Prefecture is a bit chaotic...many wealthy households are moving away, and there are also many soldiers staying to pick up their relatives. There are also various officials, generals, and other officials from the capital in the city. A person from a wealthy family.

Qin Sanlang didn't want to cause trouble, so he didn't even stop when he passed by Long'an Mansion, and walked straight away.

After walking for about ten days, they finally arrived at Gaoshui County.

Gu Jinli had no impression of Gaoshui County anymore, but she was still very happy when she stepped into the land of Gaoshui County.

When she got close to the county seat, she raised the curtain of the carriage and looked at Gaoshui County from a distance, and found: "It's not bad. It's better than some counties she passed by."

Qin Sanlang rode next to her carriage and said after hearing this: "There is a Gaoshui River in Gaoshui County, and the cultivated land is more fertile than other counties. The corresponding county is better than other places."

However, after the previous war, Gaoshui County was robbed and massacred once, and the city walls were in tatters. This shows how badly other counties that are not as good as Gaoshui County were harmed by the war.
