Genshen: Starting from Liyue, he is equipped with the seals of the Six Kingdoms
Chapter 231 Give them hope
Niwa's inspection was not a temporary initiative.
In fact, the day after he decided to start by stabilizing the situation, he had already begun secretly investigating the situation among the people.
It was originally in Inazuma Castle.
He walked through the streets and alleys of Machizaka without any entourage, wearing casual clothes, and found that even in the capital of Shuzen, everywhere he passed was a scene of decay and decay.
Affected by the invasion of the dark demonic tide, Yashiro Island and Kannazuka fell one after another. Hundreds of thousands of refugees poured into Narukami Island, which instantly plunged Narukami Island, which was not very developed in agriculture, into a food crisis.
What's even more terrible is that Liyue and Xumi were also invaded by the demonic tide, which led to the interruption of shipping routes and the rapid shrinkage of channels for obtaining supplies from the outside.
As a result, first the price of rice soared, and then the prices of all basic living necessities increased.
Niwa secretly calculated that in the past six months, Inazuma's prices have increased by an average of 50%, and the increase in basic daily necessities has exceeded 100%!
Inazuma's already very fragile economy collapsed completely, the market was depressed, all industries withered, and a large number of urban handicraft residents faced bankruptcy!
Such a mess would make anyone else scratch their head. Niwa once wondered, how did Yae Shenzi and the Inazuma nobles survive back then?
But now he almost understands.
In fact, they did nothing...
According to the original world line, after the appearance of the sacred cherry tree, the dark disaster basically subsided, and then came the stage of restoring the economy.
Inazuma is a typical feudal system. Especially on Narukami Island, the population and wealth are in the hands of the major nobles. As long as they organize production and restore their vitality, the entire economy will basically recover.
As for civilians and refugees...
Although it is not recorded in Inazuma's official history, Niwa understands that they must be dead in the end.
After all, in five hundred years' time, the total population of the two islands, Yashiro Island and Kannazuka, will surpass Narukami Island.
If the scene of Inazuma Castle is still withering and decaying, then what we see near the islands now is despairing!
As the largest deep-water port on Narukami Island, the outlying island is not only a gathering place for business travelers, but also an important gateway for large numbers of refugees to enter Narukami Island.
Hundreds of thousands of refugees from Yaojima Island and Kannazuka had no one to take care of them after landing. Those with a little wealth could still grit their teeth and continue to migrate to Inazuma Castle. Those who walked in the front could buy some food supplies in the villages along the way, but those who walked in the back couldn't even buy food.
There is no other way. The villagers have to keep their own ration seeds. How can there be so much to sell to them?
Along the way, Niwa saw these refugees walking to death, hoping to reach Inazuma Castle. But what they don't know is that Inazuma City is not a paradise!
As for the extremely poor refugees, it is even more miserable. They can only set up refugee camps on the periphery of the island and suffer. Hunger, disease, and even a cold wind in spring can take away countless lives!
Although the living conditions are so difficult, these refugees still refuse to give up.
Most of the residents on the outlying islands are merchants, and they still have some wealth. In addition, the outlying islands are the hub for the transfer of materials inside and outside Inazuma. There are many warehouses. Compared with Inazuma City, the material reserves may be richer.
These refugees work as handymen on the docks of outlying islands every day, and some go to the high gates to wait to pick up the leftovers they can't finish eating.
For those who are more active, take advantage of the fact that it is spring and everything is growing in the mountains and fields. Go to the mountains and forests to find some wild vegetables and mushrooms, go to the streams to catch some fresh fish and shrimps, or go to the beach to pick up some seafood clam shells. We took it to an outlying island in exchange for some food, but we could barely get enough.
It's just that this is not a long-term solution after all, not to mention that the residents of the outlying islands are not stupid either. Anyone with some connections is desperately hoarding supplies, and even fewer can get it out through the cracks of their fingers.
Along the way, everyone Niyu saw, no matter outlying island residents or foreign refugees, no matter soldiers or businessmen, their eyes were dull and lifeless, and there was an atmosphere of failure everywhere.
Seeing all of this, both the Nasita Miao in his arms and the Eightfold Divine Son accompanying him couldn't help but feel depressed. Even the Dream Isshin in his hand felt dead for a while.
While passing by a refugee camp, Niyu was finally recognized.
"General... General?"
"Is it the General? It's the General!"
"General! Please save us!"
As the news spread, men, women and children in the refugee camp ran out.
The pressure of the gods prevented them from approaching, so they had to lie down on the ground a few meters away and beg loudly.
"General! Please save us!"
"Sir General! Please save Inazuma's people!"
The crowd's voices became louder and louder, attracting people from nearby refugee camps. Soon tens of thousands of people gathered, surrounding Niwa and his party!
The sound like a roaring mountain and a tsunami made Yae Shenzi couldn't help but feel weak in his legs. Naxi Da Miao also quickly got into Niyu's arms, not daring to show her head.
At this moment, Niwa raised the Dream Isshin in his hand.
Thunder rang in the air, instantly calming everyone.
Niyu stepped forward slowly, pulled the nearest old man up from the ground, and picked up a dirty young child with one hand.
He scanned the crowd with his noble and firm purple eyes and shouted: "Stand up!"
The refugees who were kneeling on the ground didn't know why, but they stood up one after another.
Niyu moved forward slowly, and the refugees he passed lowered their heads and backed away.
He took more than ten steps forward, looked around at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "People of Dao Wife, I believe you all know that Dao Wife is facing a huge crisis! Dark monsters suddenly appeared, destroying our home, and even There are also these monsters raging on Narukami Island!"
"What you may not know is that the shogunate was unprepared for this, the army suffered heavy losses, and the war situation was very unfavorable to us! At this moment, at this moment, on the last line of defense of Narukami Island, our soldiers are fighting to the death, Sacrifice continues!”
"The days ahead are difficult, and you must be in great pain; hearing these bad news, you must be very scared. But I am here to tell you, we will not sit still and wait for death! Ina Wife will not sit still and wait for death!"
"The army is gathering. I will lead the army in person to take back your home and Ina Wife's future!"
With that said, Niwa raised Dream Isshin high and declared loudly.
"Even if there is endless darkness in front of me, I will hold this blade and cut through it with one strike!"
"I demand that you follow me forward!"
"Those who are strong, go to the surveyor to register and transfer military supplies! The old and weak, go to the community to register and make baskets and bags! The shogunate will provide food on a daily basis! All mountains, forests, rivers and lakes are open to everyone, and fishing and hunting are allowed to make up for the shortage of food. !”
"Hold on! People of Inazuma!"
"I promise you, even if it means chewing violet melons and chewing seaweed, I will lead you to regain your homeland and rebuild your homeland!"
The tens of thousands of refugees present and the hundreds of outlying island guards who arrived later felt as if something was burning in their chests!
As Niwa yelled out the last syllable, a tsunami-like sound resounded across the beach, rushing towards the mountains and sea, red maples and purple cherry blossoms in the distance.
"The Chang Dao is magnificent, and the Ming Shen is eternal!"
The young girl was dazzled and murmured to herself: "I thought we had nothing, we couldn't give anything to the people..."
Niyu raised his ears and looked back with a smile: "No! We can give them - hope!"
