Chapter 699: Refugees

Wang Tong sighed and said: "Last year, Rong Di had a bad harvest, before, he lost another battle with Tianchi, and compensated a lot of money and grain, and now the whole Rong Di is full of poor people, and my business is becoming more and more difficult to do, I am thinking, whether to go back to Tianchi Country, after all, there is my hometown." ”

"You want to go back to Tianchi, is your sister-in-law willing?" Zi Huai asked with a smile.

Wang Daodao: "She naturally has no opinion, she just thought that it was a good deal to pull the things from Tianchi here to sell, but now that she looks at it, it is not particularly good, so it is better to go back to Tianchi." ”

A few people were walking, and there was just a step in front, Wang Tong hurriedly said: "There are steps in front, Brother Zihuai be careful." ”

Zihuai nodded and said, "So, are you determined to go back?" So when are you going to go back? Don't do it now, I'm about to bother you. ”

"Not so fast." Wang Tong smiled: "I still have a lot of goods there, and I have to deal with them first." I heard that you have brought a lot of good things with you this time. ”

Zi Huai smiled: "Yes, these things, I was about to ask you to help me sell them." ”

As he spoke, the goods on the merchant ship were coming down one after another, and at this moment, Zihuai's people had already carried the boxes down.

Wang Tong shook his head and said, "It's not the right time for you to come, at this time, what Rong Di lacks most is food, and other things are luxury goods for them." ”

When a few people were talking, a few ragged refugees walked in front of them, they were very thin, they were so thin that they were a little out of shape, Lin Yi and Zihuai looked at it, and were slightly moved.

Those people just limped past, followed by a group, these few, even more pitiful than the few just now, a thin old woman, with a black-faced child on her back, and a skinny child in her hand, an old woman and a young man walked a few steps like this, the old woman suddenly crooked, and the whole person fell to the ground.

The little child threw himself on the old woman, crying and crying, "Grandma, what's wrong with you?" Grandma, wake up......"

The child on the old woman's back, because of the old woman's fall, he also fell painfully, whimpered and cried like a mosquito.

Lin Yi looked at this scene, his eyes were slightly hot, and he couldn't bear it in his heart.

Zi Huai looked at it, and was also a little uncomfortable, and asked, "Why are there so many refugees in Yingdu?" “

Wang Daodao: "In recent years, Rong Di has been fighting every year, and in addition, last year's natural disasters, many land grains were not harvested, and the people were displaced, there was really no way, many poor refugees poured into the shadow capital, after all, the shadow capital is the capital of Rong Di, which is a little better than the outside." ”

Lin Yi looked at the child and couldn't bear it, she walked over, bent down slightly, took out five silver beans, handed them to the child, and said, "Take it...... Take it and buy something to eat. “

The child was grateful, knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Yi a few times, and then held the silver beans and said to the fainting old woman: "Grandma, look, we have money, Ah Yuan will go buy you food now." ”

The boy said, turned around and ran to a restaurant on the dock, bought two big buns, came back happily, and said excitedly: "Grandma, look, there are big buns, you get up and eat them quickly." “

But the old woman remained motionless, and she did not know whether she was faint or dead.
