Chapter 258 Punishment

  Gu Chengrui nodded, then walked to the leader of the official clerk and said, "Master errand, these refugees want to rob and rob, the rest will be left to you."

   "It's easy to say, but you have to be more careful in the future." When the leader heard that he was so easy to talk, he immediately nodded.

   Then he greeted a group of officials and walked to the yamen with a group of refugees.

   After they left, Gu Chengrui turned his head and said to everyone, "Are you injured? I'll bandage you in the main room."

   "No need, boss, it's just some skin injuries, we can handle it ourselves." Fang Qing hurriedly shook his head.

   "That's fine, then go to bed early, and come find me if you can't handle it." After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he led Zhou Ying to the main room.

   The next morning, before everyone woke up, they were awakened by the sound of a gong.

   After getting up, I looked at the distant team and inquired about it, only to find out that the refugees who were arrested yesterday are now being paraded through the streets. After I heard, they will be sent to the mill as coolies.

   "This punishment is light enough. People like them should be put to death directly." Fang Qing said angrily after hearing this.

   "Sometimes death is a relief, and death is the biggest torture for them." Gu Chengrui said at this time.

Then he explained under his puzzled eyes: "The current mill can be said to be a continuous rotation all day long. After entering, not only will you not be full, but you will also have to do heavy work. The treatment is really not as good as that of a donkey. Can't come down."

   "That's right, no wonder everyone is crying and calling his mother. It's really relieved to scold his mother." Fang Qing nodded clearly.

   "They deserve it too. It's good that they didn't kill them directly." Li Sheng said while covering half of his swollen face, gritted his teeth.

   That's because Tian Jingzhong didn't dare to kill so many people, otherwise the remaining refugees would riot. Of course, Gu Chengrui just thought about it and didn't say it.

   then said: "This is the case, but in order to prevent retaliation, we still have to be more careful next time."

   "Retaliation, do they dare?" Fang Qing asked in surprise.

   "Why don't you dare, there are always a few **** people among the relatives of so many people, which is why there is a saying that the nine clans are linked."

   After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the back room, and said at the same time, "Hurry up and pack up and eat."

   But the next few days were unusually calm, the public wells in the town had all dried up, and the refugees were walking faster and faster.

  Ten days later, two wells were drilled in the village, and the water in them was very sufficient, so the sweet potatoes in the village grew better and better.

  Tian Jingzhong also moved to Shanghe Village, and requisitioned the well at the entrance of the village into a public well. Those who lacked water in the nearby Shili Ba villages could come here to draw water in limited quantities.

  Zhuangzi, under the leadership of the shopkeeper Liu, also drilled two deep water wells, one of which was still a sweet water well, but the amount was not large.

   However, at the foot of the mountain, there is a lot of water, so the shopkeeper Liu not only led people to water all the sweet potatoes, but also destroyed some grass and inserted sweet potato seedlings under the guidance of Chang Shun.

   In the blink of an eye, it was time for Gu Chengsi to get married, but due to the increasingly serious disaster, there was no big deal, and only the village and a few important relatives were invited.

   At the same time, Gu Ziyi and his party finally built a small courtyard in the village because of the water and stayed in the village.

  It is the summer harvest season after the completion of the marriage, but the wheat harvest is not ideal. For example, in a place with a lot of water in Shanghe Village, every mu can harvest 23 ounces of small glutinous rice.

  Other water-deficient places are almost dead.
