Wang Erniu is from Wangjiazhuang, Datong Prefecture.
Like most refugees, they could no longer survive at home, so they had to flee to Datong Prefecture.
After finally arriving outside Fucheng, Wang Erniu was confused when he saw the situation here.
The situation here was completely beyond his expectation.
Along the way, Wang Erniu has seen hell on earth.
The people were so hungry that they could do anything.
Wang Erniu saw someone cooking meat on the road more than once.
But at this time, Datong Mansion was really in a state of chaos.
Everything that could be eaten had already been completely eaten by people.
Not to mention books, covers, grass and leaves, these are barely enough to satisfy your hunger.
But the scene outside Datong Mansion was very different from what Wang Erniu had imagined.
After coughing twice, the official continued: "First, open defecation is absolutely not allowed. No matter how urgent you are, even if you are about to defecate in your pants, you must go to a public toilet to resolve it."
After all, at times like this, it is very rare to have a bite to eat. No matter how strict the rules are, it is better than starving to death.
"Although after you find a job, the imperial court will no longer provide gruel. But anyone who makes a decent living will not look down on these gruels. It is difficult to even fill your stomach."
There are neat wooden houses built here, and people can be seen doing construction in the distance.
It was Wang Erniu who couldn't help but raise his hand and asked: "Sir, what should I do if I don't know the words?"
After all, Wang Erniu had to carry his mother on his back, so he definitely needed to supplement his nutrition.
Some of them have not escaped disaster before.
Forget it, I'm too lazy to learn from such illiterate people.
Everyone turned to look and saw that there was indeed an old man with gray hair on the street next to him, who was cleaning the street seriously.
As he said that, the official looked to the side and pointed.
Originally, Wang Erniu thought that even if he arrived at Datong Mansion, the situation would not change.
"The one on the left says male, and the one on the right says female."
"All water entering the mouth must be boiled and then allowed to cool before drinking."
Moreover, most of the dried meat fell into Wang Erniu's belly.
The urban management officials were already familiar with this situation, so they didn't take it to heart at all.
The two of them didn't dare to eat more, but they were really hungry, so they ate a little secretly.
"However, I don't suggest you do this. When you came here just now, you should have heard about the people recruiting workers outside."
Rather, it seems that life is going pretty well, and many people even seem to be a little fat.
They were not at all like the officials they had in mind who only bullied ordinary people.
Because Wang Erniu was the only one carrying his mother on his back, he occasionally encountered some malicious looks.
"Who came up with this, Haru? I have to come here to go to the toilet? What if I don't have time?"
Wang Ergou put his mother on the bed with difficulty and burst into tears.
"Even if they don't work, they can still survive on some of the most basic food."
These people look and feel actually good.
"Each house has one room...your name is Wang Erniu, right? You live in the one at the top."
Wang Ergou simply couldn't believe that Datong Mansion was currently experiencing a horrific drought that was rare in thousands of years.
Other victims of the disaster can tolerate it, even if they hit the board, it's not a big deal.
"This kind of benefit will last until the drought is over."
When the people who were fleeing the famine heard this, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
There were more than a dozen of them, led by an official, as they walked through the refugee camp.
"Thank you, sir. Your kindness will never be forgotten." Wang Erniu thanked him sincerely.
As soon as they arrived at the disaster area, someone arranged for Wang Ergou and others to live in a refugee camp.
All the refugees noticed that when talking about this incident, the official had a very distressed expression on his face.
Not to mention, while dealing with those with bad intentions, you also have to protect your mother.
If you have to control your poop and pee, why should you also control your drinking water?
The only hope is to get a bowl of gruel every day to survive.
The people all looked at the group of people approaching with confusion.
"This is really an eye-opener. I have never heard that you have to control other people's poop and pee."
Then, it is self-evident what kind of meat those people can eat.
After all, although he still had a lot of strength, he had not eaten anything for several days, his hands and feet were weak, and it was very difficult for him to just stand.
As God opened his eyes, the two of them accidentally encountered a rabbit on the road.
"If you really can't remember, just ask the old lady outside before going to the toilet."
Faced with this situation, Wang Erniu didn't have any good ideas.
In this way, Wang Erniu carried his mother on his back all the way from his hometown to Datong Mansion.
Although they had thousands of words in their hearts, they didn't say much.
"About this, I am about to tell you."
There was a buzzing discussion among the people fleeing the famine.
The floor was clean and the room still smelled of new wood.
Wang Erniu's mother secretly dried the rabbit meat into dried meat.
Although this room is not big, it is fully equipped.
Entering the room, the space here is really not big, so it can only barely accommodate two beds, a table, and a simple stove.
The name here doesn't sound very nice, but Wang Ergou was surprised to find that it seemed to be better than the place they lived in the village.
The official chuckled. At this time, there was a group of five people who formed a row and slowly passed by them.
But now, His Royal Highness the King of England has repeatedly ordered them to treat these people the same way they treated the Jade Emperor.
The official secretly spat: "Bah, what the hell."
"Have you seen these people?"
They basically have no objection to being late for a bowl of porridge every day.
"I, I, I, I have a problem." This look.
But the fine is really terrible.
When Wang Erniu heard this, he quickly raised his hand desperately.
Let alone animals and the like.
The official was speechless. Why do you look so proud if you don't know how to read?
What's more, the imperial court not only provided rice porridge, but also provided accommodation.
The officials who took these fleeing people to visit the refugee camps seemed to be used to this kind of situation.
One advantage of building houses in this way is that many houses in the middle share the same wall, which can save a lot of building materials.
Immediately, the eyes of these common people looking at the urban management officials became unkind.
Soon, the official took them to their residence.
However, after walking too far, they couldn't keep up with the strength, and finally gave up.
For the sake of their own future, these officials can only knock out their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs.
It's just that Wang Erniu only has two people, and the room they need is definitely not too big, so they were given a small room.
Therefore, you can still eat meat at various times...
He knew he couldn't deal with these people, so he didn't bother with them.
In front of this building, there is an old lady, standing with a small bench, looking around with burning eyes.
"If you are caught urinating in public for the first time, you will be fined one day's salary directly... If you are caught again, it will not only be as simple as a fine."
In the past, he would not even look at someone like Wang Erniu.
"So even if you don't do anything, you can live here for free and eat a bowl of porridge every day."
He gritted his teeth, carried his mother on his back, and kept walking forward.
If the Jin Yiwei people find out that they are being unreasonable to these ordinary people, His Royal Highness will not let them go.
"I heard from those who recruited workers before that they only provide one meal when they go to work. If I go to work, what will my mother do?"
Of course, the disadvantage is that there is almost no sound insulation at all.
That look made it feel like someone was walking down the street without incident and suddenly stepped on dog poop.
"They will tell you where the men's room is and where the women's room is."
After all, ordinary people like them know the virtues of government officials best.
Those with bad intentions followed them for a distance at first.
The people in these deserted areas resisted from the bottom of their hearts to the rules that even governed such things.
Then he continued to explain: "The second rule in the refugee camp is that no one can drink raw water."
At this time, these refugees are already grateful to have a roof over their heads, and they will not force anything else.
"But there are two things you must pay attention to and abide by."
If someone discovers that you deliberately went to the wrong toilet, you may be slapped with a board, or paraded in public.
There were also some simple quilts placed on the bed in Chapter 2.
Wang Erniu's mother felt sorry for her son, and even suggested to Wang Erniu several times that he should put down himself and ask for his life.
If you haven't experienced it yourself, those scenes would be like hell.
He didn't pay attention to their whispers at all and just continued to introduce himself.
The official directly pointed out the first room at the beginning to Wang Erniu.
However, although Wang Erniu is not a smart person, he still has a clumsy tenacity.
Looking at the serious look on this old man's face, he seemed to want to sweep the dirt streets spotless.
Wang Erniu was too stupid to say anything nice, so he just gritted his teeth and held on.
The people who fled looked at each other in confusion and did not understand.
Needless to say how hard it was along the way. Wang Erniu, a strong young man, is now skinny and skinny. This shows how Wang Erniu managed to survive this journey.
As he walked, he continued to introduce to everyone.
But soon, after hearing the officials' explanation, many people's expressions changed.
These wooden houses are even better and cleaner than the thatched houses many of them live in the countryside.
As long as they can barely feed themselves, as long as they don't starve to death, no matter how hard it is, they can face it.
"Come with me." The official greeted and led the fleeing people into the refugee camp.
"We are all people with hands and feet, so why are we neglecting our good lives and living on only 10,000 yuan of gruel every day?"
Even Guanyin soil is almost impossible to find at this time.
This is a connected house, with four or five rooms connected together.
Hearing what the official said, the refugees started murmuring.
Neither of them even thought that they could make it all the way to Datong Mansion.
"In our refugee camp, we now provide porridge once a day."
The official couldn't help but notice Wang Erniu, and asked speechlessly: "Do you have any questions?"
"In our refugee camp, as long as you work harder, not only will you not starve to death, but you will also be able to live a good life."
The two sides passed each other without stopping.
"These are the urban management of our refugee camp. They are in charge of your open defecation."
Although no real harm was caused, the mood was extremely heavy.
It's not something that can be taken care of, nor is it something that Wang Erniu can wear.
No matter what you want to do, the people next door can hear you clearly.
Silk!
Before the official finished speaking, he heard sounds that came one after another and made him shiver.
Immediately, the official pointed to the public toilet and wrote: "In addition to having to come here to use the toilet, you must also be careful not to enter the wrong toilet."
"So that's the case, then I'm relieved." Wang Erniu, who was carrying his mother on his back, looked relieved.
How come there weren't so many broken rules in the government offices they encountered before?
The official rolled his eyes secretly and said to himself that these idiots just don't know what it means to be calm.
The people here are not like zombies, they are just barely alive.
The whole body is clean and tidy. When walking, the queue is neat and the back is straight.
"You can rest assured that if it is really an old, weak, sick or pregnant woman with physical inconvenience."
As he spoke, the official pointed towards a strange building next to him.
"Our refugee camp was built by the imperial court for the people who were fleeing, so there are no special rules."
Wang Erniu looked worried: "Sir, my mother is not in good health and can hardly do anything. Can he only drink gruel?"
"In addition, the imperial court will also provide them with some work of cleaning the streets and washing clothes, so that they will not starve."
Seeing these people, the officials snorted disdainfully.
After all, the people on this land are really the most hard-working and responsible group of people on this planet.
Being able to eat a bowl of porridge was much better than the desperate situation they faced on the way to escape famine.
Although there were a few more rules here, it still gave them a temporary place to stay, and Wang Erniu was truly grateful from the bottom of his heart.
Looking at his anxious look, you can imagine his eager yelling.
"Mother, we finally got through it, Uncle Qi and the others..."
As he spoke, Wang Erniu was choked up and almost couldn't speak any more.
The mother comforted Wang Ergou softly.
I had just tidied up briefly when I heard someone beating a gong outside.
