Chapter 209

Fortunately, the yurt is relatively large. It can not only accommodate all of them, but also separate two small spaces inside. Ye Xiaoxian, Xiao Baozhu and Li Hongmei can sleep together again.

Although there are many holes in the yurt, it's not cold yet, and you can mend them.

The climate here is very dry. You don't have to take a bath every day. You just need to wash your face, wash your hands and wipe your body.

Busy into the evening, a group of people finally settled down.

The conditions here are not as good as the post house, but they are better than living in the wild when wandering.

It's also late here. Because the sun is different, they don't appear at any time. They only know that genius wipes the black and several stars light up in the sky.

Ye Xiaoxian and Liu Yuanwai proposed that everyone come out and have a small meeting to discuss what to do next.

After waiting for everyone, ye Xiaoxian asked member Liu to preside over it, Liu Yuanwai also said: "When we arrived in the afternoon, you heard what the patriarch said. He told us that if we want to take root here, we have to listen to them. We are new here. We don't understand the rules here, and we don't have sheep. Although we bring a lot of money, we will spend it all one day. If we spend it all, we have to go to the herdsman's house to help herd. Let's talk about it , what do you think? "

Ye Xiaoxian first said, "my proposition is that we don't rely on them, but rely on ourselves. There is another way out except herding sheep."

Xiao Tieshu was a little depressed: "but our money will always be spent. Where can we make money and find a way?"

Ye Xiaoxian said, "didn't the interior official say that besides herding sheep, we can also grow potatoes and fruits here. As long as we are willing to do these things, we won't be defeated. After all, potatoes are planted everywhere."

Xiao Tongshu still had no confidence: "we can plant it, but we can't harvest it for a while. If the money is spent during this period, what shall we eat?"

Ye Xiaoxian pointed to the mountain forest behind him: "there are many kinds of rare treasures in the mountain. As long as you are willing to find them, you can certainly find them. Then you can get them to Baoning city to exchange money."

Li Hongmei couldn't believe it: "leaf, didn't you hate going into the mountain before? You always said that the mountain is unreliable."

Ye Xiaoxian said, "it's certainly not reliable to rely on the mountain all the time, but isn't it a change of environment now? We live at the foot of the mountain and have to live well in front of us first."

Everyone was always confused.

Ye Xiaoxian thought of the documentary she had seen and said, "at present, we can plant potatoes and fruit trees first, collect honey in the mountain at the same time, and then sell the honey outside. At present, we still have some silver and grain on hand. When Mahal comes tomorrow, we'll ask him how to trade. Besides Liu, you can take care of his words."

Liu Yuanwai is good at this, and he immediately agreed.

Ye Xiaoxian added, "at present, we are outsiders here, so we should keep a low profile and never offend the people here, especially the clan leaders, otherwise we will be excluded next. It's best to bear it in the early stage and integrate into them as much as possible."

When ye Xiaoxian said this, she looked at her own Xiao iron tree and Xiao copper tree.

After they came, they were dissatisfied with the locals and wanted to show their skills when they could let the locals know their strength.

Of course, they mean fighting, soap service, how many times.

After hearing this, Liu admired Ye Xiaoxian again.

He also looked at his own humanity: "that's what I mean. How can we from other places conflict with local people? In that case, it's not us who suffer?"

Xiao Tieshu asked, "but, as you can see, the patriarch took the lead in bullying us. He buttoned our faces and yurts to live in these rags."

Ye Xiaoxian said, "don't worry, uncle. These things will come out sooner or later. If you don't believe it, you'll see."

Ye Xiaoxian sat beside the fire, which made her face red and filled with expectations.

……

This night, everyone was not used to it and didn't sleep for a long time.

The night here is too quiet. In the past, when I was in the village, I could occasionally hear dogs barking at night, but I couldn't hear them here at all, not even the sound of insects.

But it's bright outside. The position of the stars looks very low. The sky is full of stars.

Ye Xiaoxian can't tell what it feels like. It's like walking on the glass bridge. There are beautiful scenery around and her feet are very solid. However, there are always some worries that she will fall into the abyss if she is not careful.

It seems that we should continue to be cautious and work hard in the coming days.

……

Mahal came the next morning.

The night before, he heard from the little boy in the village that there were refugees coming here and asked them to help build yurts. There were cakes to eat in yurts.

Mahal really admires this group of people. He knows how to buy children and set up an image in front of children. As long as the image is set up, these children will not exclude them.

However, Mahal also vaguely understood that ye Xiaoxian and his group were not simple. After all, the internal officials sent them in person, and there was surplus food on hand.

When the two groups of refugees came here, they were all very sad. Let alone surplus food and money. They didn't even have a few good clothes. It was the kind-hearted people of the tribe who sewed two old clothes for them.

"Oh, everyone got up. How did you sleep last night?" Mahal learned to greet people in the pass.

Liu Yuanwai and ye Xiaoxian had discussed last night, and Liu Yuanwai was responsible for dealing with Mahal.

"Well, it's very good here. The air is very good, the vision is wide, and the scenery is very good. We all sleep well. In addition, the children in the tribe are very enthusiastic. They even helped us build the yurt. You see, it's very good." Liu Yuanwai smiled.

The patriarch thought: you didn't use food as a temptation. They helped you build it.

Mahal didn't expose it, but smiled and said, "yes, our children are enthusiastic. By the way, have you considered how to live next? Do you want to help herd sheep? Or do something else. We herd sheep here, grow potatoes and wheat. At this time, the tribe is also short of people."

Member Liu laughed and said, "we are clumsy and may not be suitable for these jobs. It's better for the patriarch to give us some potato seeds and some fruit tree seedlings. After all, we plant the ground here. How can we take root if we don't plant the ground?"

Mahal's face sank: "do you want to farm?"

"Yes, our people in the pass have been farming for generations. Besides, the territory here is vast. Is it no problem for us to plant a little land?"

Mahal looked puzzled: "our land is zoned, even the grassland is divided. I don't know how to distribute it when you come from behind."

"A little farther is OK, as long as you can plant it." Liu yuanwaidao.

Then, officer Liu put a piece of silver in Mahal's hand and said with a smile: "just a piece of land and some potato seeds and saplings, isn't this too much? Also, we promise that we will never cross the border."

Mahal pinched the silver in his hand. When he was sure it was true, his face relaxed.

Then there was the temptation. For example, what was their origin? Did they have an acquaintance in Baoning city? Who was that internal official?

In the words taught by Ye Xiaoxian, member Liu said: "the internal official is the subordinate of a friend. We have friends who are officials in Baoning city. They could not have been used for the tribe, but Baoning city is now dominated by the sixth Lord, who advocates diligence and thrift. Everyone has to work in the tribe, so they sent us here."

Mahal asked, "what is your friend in charge of?"

The people of these tribes, with high mountains and far away from the emperor, don't pay much attention to the people in the Imperial City, but they will give face if they are closely related to their interests.

Liu said: "it seems that he is in charge of... Transactions. I heard that he is in charge of all transactions outside Baoning city."

Like other tribes, the wool and fruit produced by Tianshan tribes have to be traded with people from other tribes or sold to people in the pass to make money.

If it is in charge of the transaction, it must be closely related to Mahal's interests.

Mahal was a little loose, and his eyes outside Liu seemed to be less important.

However, he still looked embarrassed and said, "I'm the patriarch here. I have to take great responsibility for delimiting land for you. When people in the family ask me, I'm not easy to be a man. Well, I can give you some seeds and fruit trees, but you have to plant them on the hills in front. There's no race there."

Member Liu thought to himself: hum, why are you so embarrassed.

Baoning city allows you to accept refugees, including land, yurt and noodles. You can't take all the benefits, can you?

In addition, the place over there is still windward, and there is not enough sunshine. I don't know if I can plant it well.

But Liu Yuanwai still smiled and said, "really? Thank the patriarch. When the fruit trees have a harvest, we will give money to the tribe."

Mahal then asked, "OK, if you go to see your friend or your friend in the future, you can introduce it to me."

"That's natural." Member Liu hehe said, "my friend should come in a while."

After that, member Liu scolded at the bottom of his heart: fog grass, it's really human spirit. OK, I'll tell you to the end.

“……”

Ye Xiaoxian managed to get some good and bad potato seeds, some crooked fruit tree seedlings, and a piece of land that looked really ordinary.

But that's better than nothing.

Next, it's time to assign tasks.
