Farmer sister: Escape from wilderness and farm with Lingquan space

However, there are only a few old and weak women and children in their house, and there is no adult male. It is not that easy to gain a foothold in the capital without being bullied by others.

Therefore, Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu made up their minds from the moment they decided to follow the people of Qingshui Village to escape famine. They were only following Miss Qiao Ran. No matter where she went, the Wu family would follow her. Everyone had a mutual understanding. Anaphora.

If the Qiao family was short of food and money, they might as well lend a helping hand in time to repay Qiao Ran for saving Wu Qianqian's life.

Just after Wu Qianqian finished speaking, several more voices sounded almost at the same time.

"Ran Ran, my family will definitely follow you!"

"Our Qian family/Li family will also follow you!"

The people who spoke were Widow Zhao, Father Shitou, Li Daqiang, Father Hu Zi and other people who had been saved by Qiao Ran or who had helped the most along the way.

Their idea is very simple, that is, to stay with their benefactor so that they can have the opportunity to repay her properly in the future.

Even the old village chief firmly voted on behalf of his family:

"Ran Yatou, if you don't mind, I, an old man, will take my whole family with you. Wherever your family goes, my family will go. I just hope you can intercede with Lord Tongpan and don't let it happen." Let’s separate from your family.”

Even the old village chief said so, and many people immediately raised their hands to express their intention to follow the Qiao family.

Only a few family members remained silent. It wasn't that they didn't want to follow the Qiao family or Qiao Ran, but they were waiting for Qiao Ran's answer and wanted to know where she had chosen.

If Lord Tongpan is allowed to separate them and place them in different villages, then those families who are relatively unfamiliar with Qiao Ran and the Qiao family will most likely be sent elsewhere, and that is not their place. You can choose.

And if Qiao Ran chose Devil's Valley, they would have to discuss it with their family before making a decision.

After all, the Devil's Valley was too scary. They didn't want their family to go through hardships and dangers and escape from death to reach the feet of the emperor, only to be killed by miasma poisonous gas so easily.

Seeing that most people wanted to follow her, Qiao Ran smiled and then said, "I decided to go to Devil's Valley."

As soon as the words fell, everyone fell silent.

Some people didn't expect Qiao Ran to choose Devil's Valley. After all, she knew that going there would be a dead end, and Qiao Ran was not stupid, so why would she choose that place?

Some people had vaguely guessed it, but they still felt a little shocked. They said they wanted to be quiet and accept this fact.

Some people choose to believe in Qiao Ran unconditionally. Qiao Ran must have her reasons for making this choice. Anyway, it is absolutely impossible to bring the Qiao family and those who are willing to follow her to die together. As long as they support her unconditionally, she will do it. .

For a moment, the scene was quiet and no one spoke.

The old village chief said: "Girl Ran, there must be a reason why you chose Devil's Valley, right? Can you solve the problem of miasma and poisonous gas?"

Qiao Ran glanced at everyone's faces and said with a smile: "I have a way, but this process must be very dangerous and difficult. After all, it is such a large valley, and it is not easy to remove all the miasma and poisonous gas. ?”

The old village chief nodded: "Yes, this thing can kill people. If it could be easily solved, it wouldn't be able to survive until now. I'm afraid these people from the capital would have occupied that valley long ago."

Qiao Ran also nodded: "I've seen the map. That valley is really big. Moreover, Lord Tongpan has agreed that as long as all of us are willing to go, the entire ten-mile radius of that valley will be allocated to us. , which means that the mountains around the valley are also ours, and can be used to reclaim the mountains to grow drought-tolerant grains, grow fruit trees and vegetables, raise cattle and sheep, etc."

When they heard that the government was actually willing to allocate ten miles of land to them, everyone suddenly became excited again.

If the miasma problem can really be solved, then it seems that it is not impossible to open up wasteland in Devil's Valley!

The most important thing is that that way, everyone doesn’t have to be separated. The whole village is full of villagers who have a life-long friendship. As long as they work together as a rope, what difficulties can’t be overcome?

Only with an extremely united group can we not be bullied by outsiders!

Everyone immediately looked at Qiao Ran with bright eyes.

Qiao Ran did not disappoint everyone's expectations and continued: "As for the miasma and poisonous gas, I do have a way to solve it. I just need to work hard for everyone. As long as the valley is cleaned up, it will definitely be a good place to rebuild the village and open up wasteland for farming. place!"

After hearing Qiao Ran's exact guarantee, even those who were still hesitating stopped hesitating, and everyone shouted:

"What's so terrible about hard work? Isn't it hard for us to escape all the way? As long as we can settle down, it's better than anything else!"

"Yes, as long as we don't have to separate or risk our lives, just work hard. We are not afraid of hardship!"

"Village Chief, Qiao Ran, let's choose Devil's Valley! No one will object, right?"

"Yes, is there anyone who objects? If you don't want to go to Devil's Valley, make your decision quickly. The judge will come soon and you won't be able to regret it!"

"Whoever doesn't want to go to Devil's Valley, come forward! Anyway, my family is willing to go!"

For a while, everyone was clamoring for those who didn't want to go to Devil's Valley to quickly express their position, but for a long time no one came forward.

The old village chief was very pleased to see this: "It seems that everyone is willing to go to Devil's Valley? Then Lord Tongjian will come later, let's just say so!"

No one had any objections, and the matter was decided.

Not long after they waited, Master Tongpan's sedan arrived.

He brought four government officials and two clerks with him. The officials carried two tables and two chairs, and the clerk followed the sedan with a pile of documents in his hands.

When Jia Tongpan came out of the sedan, he was startled when he saw these refugees who were well-dressed and warmly dressed, with rosy and plump faces, and who seemed to be carrying a lot of supplies.

Is this... really a refugee? This is different from what he imagined!

In the past, it was not like he had never resettled refugees who had fled from various state capitals. They were all ragged and exhausted, and they did not look like they were out for fun like the group in front of him.

"Are you really refugees fleeing from famine?"

Jia Tongpan asked suspiciously.

"Don't dare to lie to your lord! We are the refugees who escaped from Qingzhou Prefecture. Here are the land deed certificates of our village and our household registration documents."

The old village chief stepped forward respectfully and handed over a stack of certification documents with both hands.

Jia Tongpan took it and looked through it, and then he reluctantly believed that these people were really refugees who needed to be resettled.

"Okay! Then have you discussed it? Should we be relocated to several villages separately, or should we go to Devil's Valley together?"
