Chapter 377 Many Beggars
"Dad, where did these people come from? There are so many of them."
Zhou Ziya asked strangely. There were almost all adults, old people, and children in the crowd. But these people were all in very poor condition.
Zhou Yanliang glanced at the crowd outside, "These are people who have fled far away. My dear daughter, don't look at these people. They are all smelly and ugly."
Zhou Ziya wondered, "These people are fleeing? What are they fleeing for?" She had not heard any news from the outside in the village, so she didn't know anything about it.
"It's not because of the weather. I heard that the drought in places far away is worse than ours. These people have no harvest at home, and even some places don't even have water to drink. That's why they fled to us. But I heard
He said that the county magistrate did not allow these people to enter the city. So these people all lived outside the city." He also saw these people when he entered the city a few days ago and specifically inquired with Shopkeeper Hong, who was the manager of the restaurant.
This news is naturally many times more powerful than that of the Zhou family.
"But what do these people eat when they live outside the city?"
She really didn't expect that some places were so hot that there was no water to drink. No wonder these people fled. Fortunately, although there was no food harvest in Shanshui Village, there were mountains behind it, so you could still find some food there, such as wild vegetables.
And so on. Moreover, there is a river in Shanshui Village. As long as the river is not dry, there is absolutely no problem in drinking water. And she heard from the village that the river has never dried up.
"I heard from Shopkeeper Hong that the county magistrate didn't think of any solution for these people. He just made some porridge for these people every day to hang on to their lives."
The porridge was really extremely clear. He had seen it before and it was absolutely not enough.
The carriage slowly passed the gate, and Zhou Ziya could no longer see the victims. She did have a lot of food in her space, but she had no way of giving it to these people. And based on what she read in the novel, she knew that the situation behind would be even worse.
, I don’t know how many of those people can survive.
Especially those children, with their innocent, clean eyes, full of hope. She sighed, this feeling of powerlessness was really uncomfortable.
When the carriage entered the town, Zhou Ziya immediately discovered that there were obviously a lot more people in the town than before. And many people were coming and going in a hurry, as if someone was chasing them. And she also found that the number of beggars increased.
There are a lot of beggars. Because she comes to this town often, if the number of beggars increases too much, it will be particularly obvious and can be seen at a glance.
"Dad, there are a lot of beggars in this town."
"Yes, many of the first people to flee began to beg after entering the city and had no way to live. For those who arrived later, the county magistrate did not allow people to come in, and they had no place to even beg. Fortunately, those people were not released.
Come in. Otherwise, this town will be even more chaotic." Zhou Yanliang explained to his daughter, and at the same time he said worriedly, "Little girl, you have to be more careful. There are many beggars in this town, and there are many thieves who steal money. Be careful.
Your wallet. And soon I will follow you closely. There are more and more kidnappers in this city, it’s very chaotic."
In the past, when going to the town, Zhou Ziya would often do embroidery work alone without anyone accompanying her. But today, Zhou Yanliang would never agree to it. The town is too chaotic. And his daughter is too pretty.
Those kidnappers are afraid that if they see their own daughters, they will try their best to abduct them. After all, if they kidnap one of their own daughters, it is at least as good as dozens of ordinary ones.
