The whole family traveled through ancient times to start a new business

Zhou Lizheng found Su Andong and said, "Anton! Can you think of a way to get us all together? We all don't want to be separated from your family, I'm sure you can see that."

Su An Dong replied: "Dad, I will go to the city gate to see if there is any way to keep everyone together when they start accepting refugees."

When Zhou Lizheng heard this, he nodded quickly.

That night, there was a commotion among the refugees. The noise was so serious that it alarmed the officers and soldiers in the city.

Finally, soldiers came out of the city and arrested the troublemakers.

It turned out that some of the refugees had lost their household registration. If they had lost their household registration, they naturally could not enter the city.

If you are short of silver, don’t even think about entering the city without it.

So, in order to enter the city, people without household registration or lack of money started to think of stealing things. They locked their targets during the day and started their actions at night.

Because of the notices during the day, the refugees all realized the importance of their household registration and money. In order to prevent loss, most people kept them close to them.

The theft and the commotion immediately woke people up, and a fight broke out.

There were more than one person who stole things, and some people were actually robbed. After discovering that they were robbed, they naturally would not give up, and so they started to make a fuss.

The soldiers came out and arrested all the troublemakers. They showed no mercy when arresting people, and if anyone dared to resist, they would draw their swords.

The refugees looked at the aggressive officers and soldiers holding swords in their hands, and they all became quiet like quails.

Early the next morning, as soon as the city gate was opened, the officers and soldiers in the city dragged out three people.

It is said that after investigation, these three people were found to be causing trouble and stealing things, and were directly treated as rioters.

The officers and soldiers killed the three men directly in front of many refugees.

Su Anton reacted quickly and covered Su Yuanyuan's eyes directly. He didn't want his daughter to see such a bloody scene. Su Anton complained in his heart: This damn place, there is really nothing to like.

Su Yuanyuan's father covered her eyes, so she naturally did not resist and closed her eyes obediently. Even if her eyes were not covered, Su Yuanyuan would have closed her eyes because she did not dare to look.

In addition to Su Yuanyuan, many children in the team also covered their eyes. Not only the children, but also many adults consciously closed their eyes and dared not look.

After the soldiers dispersed, it was obvious that the refugees had become much quieter.

The deterrent effect of such an approach on refugees is self-evident. Everyone is afraid of death, and no one wants to joke with their own life.

Soon after, a facility was set up at the city gate to receive refugees.

This time the officers and soldiers asked the refugees to line up, and they were all very obedient and lined up in an orderly manner.

The effect of killing the chicken to scare the monkey just now was very good. No one wants to be that monkey again.

The places that receive refugees have very detailed details.

First, you go to a special identity verification location to verify your identity and household registration. After each household is verified, the person will give the other party a piece of paper. The paper will state the household registration and the number of people in the family.

Then you take the paper to the next place, which will collect money. After collecting the money, you will be assigned to the next place, and someone will specifically assign you to the location.

Su Anton stood not far away and quietly handed over a tael of silver to the officers and soldiers on duty to maintain order, and inquired about the procedures. It turned out that money can easily persuade people, and the officers and soldiers who were about to drive him away immediately changed their attitude when they saw the silver he handed over.

In addition to the procedures, Su An Dong also found out that people above the level of scholar will be specially accepted and will be selected from a limited number of places. They cannot go wherever they want. It is impossible to stay in the prefectural city. The county town also does not accept refugees, so they can only go to the villages below. The city does not accept ordinary refugees. However, it is not so absolute. If you can come up with enough money or have a strong background, it is not impossible.

Su An Dong had never thought about staying in the city. First, the Su family did not have that much money and could not spend all the money on settling down. Second, the Su family had no background here and no one to rely on. It would be even more difficult to gain a foothold in the city. It would be better to go to the countryside. If he passed the imperial examination in the future, he would be able to move to the city naturally.

Su An Dong continued to ask: "I wonder if the official knows how to get several families to live in one place."

The soldier looked up at Su Andong but didn't answer. Su Andong knew that he was dissatisfied with the money he gave. Su Andong didn't want to waste time and energy on such things, so he sensibly handed over another ounce of silver.

Sure enough, the soldier took the silver and smiled, saying, "If ordinary people want to choose their own destination, they will have to pay an additional 20 taels of silver per household. But you can't just go wherever you want, you have to choose from a few designated locations."

Su Anton understood as soon as he heard it. Everything depends on money.

After Su Anton returned, he told everyone in detail the news he had heard.

When everyone heard this, their mood became depressed again. Except for the Su family, five of the remaining ten families could afford the money, such as the Zhao family and Zhou Lizheng family. They could afford the money.

Among the remaining five households, three did not even have enough money to enter the city, let alone the twenty taels of silver.

Those who could afford the money were also a little hesitant. Twenty taels was not a small sum for them. They were still weighing whether it was worth it to spend the twenty taels to go to the same place as the Su family.

During this time, Su Anton was discussing with the Su family where to go. He had just asked the officers and soldiers about which places he could choose with his status as a scholar.

Su An Dong expressed his thoughts first, saying: "My suggestion is to go to Fengze County, which is closer to the prefectural city. This is the county closest to Anbei Prefecture City among the several counties that can be chosen. I also want to choose a village that is closer to the county seat, so that it will be convenient to do anything."

The rest of the Su family naturally had no objections and followed Su Anton's arrangements. In this way, the Su family decided on Daxi Village, Fengze County, Anbei Prefecture.

As soon as the Su family finished their discussion, Li Chunsheng came.

Li Chunsheng didn't want to borrow money from the Su family, but he had no choice. Although he had earned a lot of money with the Su family, he still needed to pay for the mule and the city entrance fee. The Li family couldn't afford 20 taels of silver and was still short of 7 taels.

The Li family wanted to follow the Su family to the same village, so they had to shamelessly borrow money.

Li Chunsheng did not talk to Li Hongmei, but went directly to find Old Lady Su and explained his purpose.

Li Chunsheng said somewhat embarrassedly: "Don't worry, I will pay it back as soon as possible."
