Chapter 53 Selecting Orphans
Liu Feng himself is also looking forward to this.
Although he has a complete grand strategy in his heart, he is a little lacking in confidence. Therefore, he is also looking forward to the grand strategy proposed by Lu Su to see if it fits him and whether he can follow it. Learn from the other party's strategy and improve your own plan.
It was night, and Lu Zijing was very drunk.
Liu Bei left Lu Su to live in the state capital, and selected a house in Tancheng County to give to the latter.
On the other side, Liu Li, the orphan beside Liu Feng, took Liu Feng's orders and spread out his deputies and began to gather the orphans of Danyang soldiers.
The Danyang soldiers are all Danyang people. Starting from the fifth year of Zhongping (188), they followed Tao Qian to Xuzhou for seven or eight years.
Many middle and lower-level officers of the Danyang Army either took their wives and children with them, or simply got married and had children in Xuzhou.
In the following years of war, these middle and lower-level officers suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining wives and children became helpless orphans and widowed mothers.
Those who were related were picked up and raised by relatives and friends of Danyang Army.
It doesn't matter. Those who have no relatives can either rely on their savings to leave Xuzhou and return to their hometown, or they can only stay in Xuzhou and live a hard life.
After Liu Feng came to Xuzhou, he did some research on the orphans and widows in Danyang's army, registered those who could be recruited into Liu'er camp, and sent some money and food to them. They won't starve to death.
Now you just need to click on the picture to find out.
It has been seven years since Pan Jun came to Xuzhou with his father. He was the first group of Danyang soldiers to come to Xuzhou.
His father has been appointed captain through meritorious deeds and is already in charge of fifty people. This is a solid step into the realm of mid-level officers.
It's just that Pan Jun's father was not from a wealthy family. He was promoted to captain only because of his personal bravery and the appreciation of his superiors.
Therefore, when Cao Cao conquered Yanzhou for the second time last year, his father died in battle.
After that, the upward trend that the Pan family had just had was immediately completely interrupted. Pan Jun's life suddenly changed from having enough money to read and practice martial arts, to living hard by relying on savings.
Fortunately, the previous commander still had some sympathy and gave me a meager pension.
Relying on his family's savings and pensions, Pan Jun struggled to survive. His life became worse day by day, and in the end he was almost out of food.
Just at this time, Liu Feng arrived in Xuzhou.
Under his visit and investigation arrangements, the orphans and widows of the Danyang soldiers received a subsidy of one stone of rice.
This move made Liu Bei's reputation among the Danyang soldiers rise a lot. Many Danyang soldiers began to feel that Liu Bei was really kind and could even help orphans and widowed mothers. Naturally, his own sergeants would not be better than them. Worse.
Liu Feng only used a few hundred stones of grain to help his father gain a reputation and goodwill among the Danyang soldiers. He also successfully investigated the orphans and widowers in the Danyang soldiers. Ingredients, it can be said to be a huge profit.
Now, Liu Li is looking for people according to orders and gathering available young people based on the results of previous investigations.
Liu Li drove an ox cart all the way to the slums in Nancheng District, Tancheng County.
These are the residences of poor people in Tancheng County. Most of the houses are made of wooden boards, straw and mud embryos.
Originally, this place was extremely dirty, with all kinds of garbage piled up and sewage flowing across it. It was like a garbage dump.
After Liu Feng came, he rectified the area, at least sending all the garbage outside the city for burial, and then diverted several sewage canals.
This is not because Liu Feng has a mysophobia, nor does he want to win people's hearts. He is simply worried that such a dirty and filthy environment will kill people if an epidemic occurs.
After being rectified by Liu Feng, although the conditions in the slums were still very poor, at least the environment was much better.
With no garbage blocking the road, even the road has been widened a lot.
Liu Li and his party had three large ox carts piled with grain. As soon as he entered the slums, he attracted a lot of covetous eyes, and even some red eyes became eager to move.
Just the next moment, these eyes fell on the swords, spears and other weapons held by these teenagers, as well as the waistbands hanging on their waists, and they immediately cooled down.
The bullock cart stopped at the door of Pan Jun's house. Liu Li jumped out of the car and moved a bag of grain with several other teenagers. He threw it at Pan Jun's door and shouted to him: "Pan Jun, I made a promise to you before." It’s time to do it, come with me.”
Pan Jun looked at the food at the door. This bag was enough for him and his brothers and sisters to eat for ten days and a half.
“Okay, wait for me for a while!”
Pan Jun agreed immediately, and then called his brothers and sisters in the house to come out and move the food into the house together.
Liu Li and the others watched Pan Jun's movements quietly, with no intention of helping.
In these days, food is life.
Liu Li and the others understood this very well, so they did not move.
Soon, Pan Jun moved the grain home and hid it, then asked his brothers and sisters to take care of their home, and then followed Liu Li's team.
The orphans and widowers of Danyang Bing also stick together in the slums and live very close to each other.
The moment Liu Li and others stopped in front of Pan Jun's house to distribute food, more than a dozen people came out of the broken houses, each holding wooden sticks and other weapons in their hands.
Each one had a fierce expression, like a hungry little beast. It was not until they saw clearly that it was Liu Li and the others that they relaxed.
Liu Li waved to them and asked them to get ready to receive food.
The teenagers went back into the shabby house and called their family members to come out and wait.
Soon, Liu Li just walked around the area and gathered more than a hundred young people over the age of twelve.
At this time, the ox cart was completely empty, and Liu Li took the Danyang orphans back and left.
Saheli also followed the rules. Long before, Liu Bei had already established a refugee camp outside Tancheng to gather refugees caused by military disasters, floods, epidemics and other disasters.
According to the epidemic prevention manual sent by Liu Feng, the entire camp was built in accordance with the prescribed regulations, and preliminary statistics were made on the victims inside.
The order Saheli accepted was to select families of 2 to 6 people, with young and strong laborers as the first priority, and young orphans as the second priority. Families with many elderly people could only give up cruelly.
After all, this is a farm, not a relief camp, and besides, you can still have a bowl of porridge if you stay here.
It is not easy to collect materials for farming, and they must be used to the maximum extent so that there will be more output in the coming year, so that more people can be helped.
However, the two selection criteria are different and the solutions are also different.
Families of young and middle-aged laborers were simply selected and then arranged in another camp that had been prepared long ago. This was to separate the selectors from the losers, so as not to cause panic and dissatisfaction among the people.
The orphan boys who met the requirements were selected and taken away, and returned to the city with Saheli and the others.
