Qingzhou County City is composed of one yard after another. Each yard has different functions, classified and responsible for different productions. They constitute the foundation of the entire Qingzhou County City. No one can be separated from this system. Everyone is a small part of this system and plays their own role in the system. So in Qingzhou City, you cannot see refugees, because refugees will all be expelled from the city, either to go to the military garrison outside the city to farm, or you will let yourself die.

This is the foundation for Lu Zheng's rule over Qingzhou in the past few years. At first glance, the county town has good public security and the people are in their own affairs. However, these are all achievements based on the bones far away from the county town.

Around the county town are large farms, these are military garrisons, and the people responsible for farming here are all people driven from all over the country, and those who have not been included in this system. Their miserable lives cannot be told by humanity.

Qingzhou covers a vast area, but in addition to the county town and dozens of miles around, it can be described as a hundred miles of Wuwei Smoke. Those originally lined up villages have long been occupied by weeds and have become the home of birds and beasts.

Lu must exchange the abandonment of the entire prefecture and county for the abnormal prosperity within dozens of kilometers around the county town, and exchange the blood and tears of countless people for the strong and strong army of his army. No matter what he does, he will not be able to reverse the general trend of the world. When the people have a second choice, the result will be no doubt.

Qingzhou changes its ownership in silence

Ying Bo is a blacksmith who lives in Wuyi Lane. The people living in Wuyi Lane are all related to iron smelting and iron smuggling. They are responsible for the weapons and armor of the entire Qingzhou soldiers. They have a slightly higher status in Qingzhou City and are treated better. However, during this period, Ying Bo has been hungry for a long time.

There are five people in his family. He and his father are both blacksmiths. His wife also has a job in sewing the armor leaves together in the weapons workshop. There are two children, five people, and three people working, but they can barely make a living. But a month ago, the old father was overworked and suddenly fell down in these markets. Those who don’t work are not allowed to eat. When the father fell down, he lost his income, but he had a mouth more. How could he raise a family of five for the food he and his wife?

In the market, private fires are not allowed. This is also a way for Lu to save food and control all people. At meal time, Ying Bo and his wife took their own meals at their respective orders. The meals of the two were shared by the five. After a while, Ying Bo had lost weight.

Even so, the father and wife at home try to save some food for him. He is a blacksmith, so he has a hard work and doesn’t eat enough. How can he work?

But how could it be full? Since yesterday, my father has been lying on the bed and keeping his mouth open. Even if the couple knelt in front of the bed and begged the old man to take a bite, the old man still closed his eyes and refused to respond. He was going to go on a hunger strike and begging to die.

When I woke up early in the morning, Ying Bo staggered and walked towards the opening station with a rice bowl. Even if he kneeled down today, he had to beg the superiors who were in charge of the meals and give more charity. My father is also an old man in this market. Who doesn’t know that he is a good iron maid?

When he woke up early in the morning, he was so hungry that he drank a lot of cold water. When he walked, he could almost hear the rumbling of the water in his stomach. This was not far from the market. What made him a little strange was that the vicious soldiers who stood at the entrance of the market on weekdays had no shadow.

These soldiers guard the market and were not allowed to leave this area. They never saw no one here for 365 days a year, but now, why can't they see alone?

Ying Bo is not the only one who is equally confused. There are more and more people in the whole market. Like Ying Bo, everyone is holding a meal bowl, but everyone's eyes are staring at the entrance of the market.

If something goes wrong, it will be a monster. Something must have happened. Otherwise, how could these soldiers stationed in the market disappear?

Ying Bo just glanced a few times, then turned around and ran towards the Kaigang. Now what he needed was food to save his life. Whether there were soldiers stationed in the market had nothing to do with him. Maybe he could scoop a little more for the meal to make. If he was placed in the end, there would be no food in the bucket, and it would be impossible to make a little for himself.

The other villagers in the market just looked at each other curiously and ignored them. They were used to being detained here. Even if there were no soldiers guarding them, there was no one who thought about leaving the market.

In the market, there is at least one bite of food, and when you walk out from here, you will be afraid that you will starve to death.

Ying Bo rushed into the opening site, but the situation inside surprised him. The layout inside was very different from yesterday. An officer sat behind a table with a thin piece in front of him, and four guards standing with knives standing behind him. These people were not Qingzhou soldiers, and their armor styles were completely different.

Ying Bo was stunned and looked up inside. In front of the rice buckets and vegetable buckets, there was not a familiar rice bucket, but a soldier wearing the same armor.

"Go there first to register, and you can come and receive the food after you register." The soldier behind the bucket knocked on the edge of the bucket and shouted loudly.

After hesitating for a moment, Ying Bo walked to the table. He smelled the smell of meat. There was meat today. He didn't remember the last time he ate meat.

"Name!" The officer picked up his pen

"Yingbo!"

...

The officer asked in detail, who is the best at making a name, how many people in the family can do, and what they can do, and they will be registered one by one.

"Okay, go and get the meal!" The officer waved his hand, and Ying Bo quickly walked to the side of the rice bowl with the rice bowl.

"Sir, I have an ill father and two little babies at home. They are almost hungry. Can you give me some more food?" Ying Bo held in hope and begged the fierce and vicious soldier. The soldier in front of him had a striking scar on his face, which looked really scary.

The soldier glanced at him and began to put rice into his rice bowl, one spoonful, two spoonfuls and three spoons. Ying Bo was surprised to see that the guy who looked extremely fierce actually filled half a bowl of rice for him, and then scooped spoonfuls of vegetables from another vegetable bucket and put them into the bowl. They were pieces of stewed with big fat meat.

"Thank you, sir, thank you, my father, he will never starve to death." Looking at the full of food, Ying Bo bowed repeatedly, tears flowing down his face.

"Go quickly, go quickly, next one, next one!" The scar soldier knocked on the bucket impatiently, drove him to Ying Bo and bowed again, then turned around and ran towards the direction of home. My father hadn't eaten for several days, and had only drunk some water. If he didn't eat anything, he would be afraid he would starve to death.

All the shops in the market that came to dinner this morning were extremely happy because they received much more meals than before. More importantly, they usually had to eat enough meat. Even if they received enough food, they did not dare to finish it at once. Instead, they were careful to stay a little. Such a good thing is probably just this one.

After dinner, the opening order became deserted. The officer at the door flipped through the booklet in his hand, carefully put it in his arms, turned around and looked at the scar soldier, shook his head and said, "It's so pitiful, these are all craftsmen. In our Ming Dynasty, these people are all treasures. Here, they live worse than dogs, alas."

The Scar soldiers looked at the empty row of buckets and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, if it were in our Ming Dynasty, these people would be the target of the government's fight for. It would be a bit miserable here, but their good days are coming soon. The General asked us to come in early to count the list of these craftsmen, just to get them all back. When it comes to Ming Dynasty, they will turn over, Lao Fang, don't look at you now, you will definitely not earn as much as they have to retire after you retire."

The officer deeply felt: "Yes, yes, who told us that we don't have any skills? We can't do anything except chop people with a knife."

"Old Fang, you are still literate. Unlike me, you can't even recognize a basket of words. From now on, you can only eat food from the soil." The Scar soldier said, "I'm about to retire."

"You can go to Taoyuan. I heard that there are the most vicious guys like you. There are many Qin people and barbarians. The government there are recruiting retired soldiers to settle down there. I heard that once you go, you can be the chief of a garrison, who is responsible for managing the Qin people. The general barbarians cannot suppress them. As long as you are willing to go there, there is a house, land, and livestock for you, and there is another monthly salary."

"Lao Fang, where did you hear the news?"

"I know how to read!" Lao Fang said proudly: "Where did you see this official document in the chief a few days ago, but it has not been made public yet. You have to hurry up. There are many people who have retired this time. After this battle, you will be retired. Only then will you announce that you are alone, and it doesn't matter where you go, right?"

"This is really a good place," said the Scar Soldier happily: "I heard that those barbarians have more women and few men. Wherever they go, maybe they can still get a wife. I am in Kaiping, and no one wants to marry me."

"It's good to find a woman from Qin! She is very hardworking and hardworking. Unlike our Ming Dynasty women, she is becoming more and more delicate now. If you marry a wife, most of the wealth you have saved is gone." Lao Fang said with lingering fear.

The Scar soldier laughed. The old Fang in front of him had just married, and he married the Ming Dynasty's wife.

Qingzhou has surrendered to the Ming Dynasty. This group of people was sent by Kaiping County to count the craftsmen of Qingzhou County in advance. Kaiping County is determined to win and is ready to get them away and hide them first, so as not to be able to come and fight the autumn wind again. The same scene is now being staged in various markets in Qingzhou.
