It is hard for future generations to imagine the difficulty of transportation in this era. Whether it is by land or water, it can be daunting.

The same is true in Shaanxi. Living in the mountainous Huan County, many people only walk around the villages throughout their lives, and have never even been to the county town.

Once a person lives in a certain place for a long time, he will develop attachment.

This attachment is not about nostalgia for this place, but about habits. Habits will lead to fear of trying.

They are afraid of losing the familiar environment and even more afraid of losing the familiar rules, so unless there are great benefits, don't want them to get into trouble.

Xu Yuan and Jiao Cairen sat outside the cave and said in a spirit: "Xinghe City has been built, it is so big, and the court has also transported a lot of artillery over there. It is the kind of firearm that can shoot out a flesh and blood alley with just one shot. As long as those aliens dare to come, they can guarantee that they can be bombarded away."

There were dozens of people sitting in front of him, and these people were listening boredly, as if they were listening to a storyteller, which made Jiao Cairen feel deeply helpless.

"Not?"

In order to show humility, the old man sat on the ground. He yawned, rubbed the tears from the corners of his eyes, and stood up and said, "Mr. Jiao, are you having dinner in the village today?"

Jiao Cairen knew that he had been in vain today, so he stood up and bowed, "Thank you for your kindness, but I'm going back."

"Sir Jiao, walk slowly!"

These villagers probably thought that they had just heard the storyteller and stood up lazily to give it to them.

Looking at this scene, Jiao Cairen suddenly felt a little sore in his eyes, and he felt a sense of grievance rushing left and right in his chest, but he couldn't vent his anger.

He suddenly shouted, "Why would you rather fill your stomach here than live a good life outside? Do you just want to be poor with your descendants? Look at these children!"

Jiao Cheren pulled a child who followed him, pointed at his naked feet and said, "Look, look, what is this?"

The child was frightened and looked at his mother for help.

But Jiao Cairen's appearance was a bit scary, and his mother didn't dare to come over.

"I've been around dozens of times, and I've said all the good things. I swear that I've told the truth, but... but why are you indifferent? Why?"

Jiao Cairen's emotions had collapsed. He wiped away his tears and choked and said, "What do you care about your life? The county forces me to migrate you. This is a good thing, but... but you just don't recognize it! What can I do?"

"I know I'm stupid and not good at bewitching, but I'm talking about heartfelt words. I swear that if the migration days are not as good as this one, I'll be caught and die!"

"No, no!"

When the old man saw Jiao Cairen, he burst into tears. He remembered that he came here every now and then. He even brought the water himself. He didn't take any advantage of the village. He couldn't bear to say: "Master Jiao, our ancestors all live here, our ancestral graves are here, and our relatives are here, where can we go! Go back, don't come, we are like this, we have been like this for thousands of years..."

Jiao Cairen's lips trembled, and the frustration made him weak.

He bowed his hand, then walked over and took the donkey, and left with a staggering pace.

Looking at his back, a villager said, "This is a good person."

The old man sighed: "We have a better life in Huan County, who would like to leave!"

...

Jiao Cairen returned to the county town, stood in front of the shadow play stall, and stared blankly at the joys and sorrows on the small platform, showing it with a doll.

The desolate singing came from behind the curtain, and a few children laughed at the dolls who were manipulated to move on the stage. They didn't know what joys and sorrows were, and they didn't know what... the fate was ill-fated...

An old woman was sobbing and suddenly whimpered, attracting the attention of many people next to her.

"good!"

At this time, the doll movements on the stage began to become intense, and the singing style gradually became high. A leisure man next to him shouted loudly. Looking at his dancing eyebrows, he clearly didn't see anything worthy of emotion in the play.

Jiao Cairen walked away slowly with the donkey, remembering what Fang Xing had said.

Life is like a play, and play is like life!

No matter how strange or shocking what is there in the play, there will definitely be in life! There will be in life, but not in the play!

In the county government, when Jiao Cairen placed the donkey and was about to return to the duty room, a minor official hurried over and told him: "Jiao Cairen, Lord Fan is looking for you."

Fan Ying's smile had disappeared. When he saw Jiao Cairen coming in, he said with a gloomy face: "I told you to immigrate, but I still have no merits today. Huanxian is in a difficult situation and I don't raise idle people. But you are a student of Xinghe Bo. I dare not act rashly, so you can go by yourself."

This is to let Jiao Cairen find a way out. Huanxian cannot let go of his meaning as a big Buddha.

It's very tactful, without Shangguan's condescending power.

Even Fan Ying dared to say this in front of Fang Xing. If Fang Xing dared to stand up, all the officials in the world would be his enemies.

Jiao Cairen shook his head slightly and bowed, "Sir, the young ones talked about eight families and forty-seven people."

He didn't argue, he just wanted to use data to tell Fan Ying that I was not without merit.

Fan Ying said coldly: "How about Xu Yuan?"

This made Jiao Cairen speechless because he was sent to Xuyuan to encourage immigration, but in the end the eight families were all from another place.

In other words, his so-called credit for Jiao Cairen was not within the scope of Shangguan's instructions.

This is still true and done in business.

Jiao Queren bowed and took his leave, knowing that he had not yet gotten out of this pit.

Xu Yuan is a "rich place" in Huan County. He knew this after he had been there for the first time, and thus knew that he had encountered the Killing Stick.

He is not afraid of killing a stick, and is willing to bear it.

But Fan Ying's purpose was to drive him away from Huan County, which made Jiao Cairen unacceptable.

He returned to the duty room in a daze and sat in front of the table in a daze.

Pan Zhi and Li Xincheng looked at each other, and then Pan Zhi said, "Oh! Lord Jiao has succeeded? When will the people in Xuyuan migrate? The whole Huan County is waiting for your good news!"

Li Xincheng coughed dryly and said in a hypocritical manner: "You have to take this matter slowly. Don't be anxious. Water is worn by stones. There will always be some people who are willing to immigrate."

Pan Zhi sneered: "What should be moved has been removed a few times ago, and the rest are those who would rather starve to death at home than go."

"Since you know, the people of Huan County should know why they should make things difficult for me?"

Jiao Cairen thought about difficulties before coming to Huan County, but he didn't expect that he would be cheated by the county government.

He turned around and said angrily: "Even so, I have touched the Eight Family members. I want to ask, do you have to immigrate Xu Yuan to count? Which family is the reason?"

Pan Zhi wanted to refute it, but Li Xincheng winked at him, and the two of them stood up and went out together.

When he arrived outside the door, Li Xincheng whispered: "He is a student of the academy. He is fine if he is caught by the nonsense. Can you block the person from Peking?"

Pan Zhi shook his head and said in fear: "He killed me like a chicken, who dares to stop me?"

Li Xincheng smiled and said, "He has been cheated. It would be fine if he stayed in Huan County, but his reputation has become bad. Will he be a minor official for the rest of his life?"

Pan Zhi couldn't help laughing, and the two of them covered their mouths and laughed all the way out.

Going to the yamen!

The people in the county government started to go home in a scattered manner. Before leaving, Fan Ying went to meet the county magistrate Wang Xu. The two talked and laughed a few times, and then Fan Ying left.

The number of people in Shaanxi continues to decline due to immigration. With fewer people, there will naturally be fewer conflicts, and the government can do fewer things.

So laziness becomes the main theme.

When Fan Ying arrived in front, she saw Jiao Cairen's room quiet, so she thought he had left.

He smiled proudly, then walked to the window and took a look inside.

A pair of dazed eyes were also looking at him!

"ah!"

Fan Ying screamed, then stumbled back quickly, and finally sat on the ground.

He panted and cursed, "What are you doing inside after you've left the yamen? Go out!"
