Chapter 2563 Beat the gong to remind everyone to fetch water

"If it weren't for those people who collected grain at a high price, our life here would definitely be better."

Hearing this, An Jiuyue narrowed her eyes coldly.

"Here, there are also unscrupulous merchants who collect grain at high prices?"

"Isn't that right, those people are really heartbroken." The soldier leader patted the table resentfully.

It’s not a black heart, what can it be? They can’t drink water, and there are still people who want to make money for the country. This is because the emperor has just ascended the throne not long ago, and his foundation is not stable. He wants to make something happen. ah.

"Yesterday, I also heard that some people went to the outskirts of the city to collect grain. I heard that they received a lot of grain, but I don't know where they hid the grain they received."

If you let him know where the food is hidden, he will definitely...

Forget it, he won't be able to, no one would rob the unscrupulous merchants of food without the order of the adults, even if the orders were given by the adults, he, the leader of the soldiers guarding the city gate, would not be able to do that job.

What's more, those people dare to blatantly charge high prices for grain, there must be someone behind it.

How could they dare to provoke people who even their adults dared not provoke? It's not that they don't want their own lives.

"The outskirts."

An Jiuyue stroked her chin with one hand, with a little interest in her eyes.

Isn't that just right, just in time to go and see, which **** is it, who dares to eat human blood steamed buns at this moment.

"You are from the North, when do you think this drought will end?"

Skipping the previous topic, she asked the soldier leader, looking up at the clear sky, without a single white cloud, she estimated that the rain would not fall for the time being.

"Who can know?"

The soldier leader smiled and shook his head. It would be great if someone of them could know.

It's a pity that this severe drought is the kind of people who just say what they say and leave when they say it, and they refuse to leave anyway. What can they do? I can only endure like this.

Every time the situation in the North Land has just improved, the grain has just had a bumper harvest, and the people have some money in their pockets, there will be a severe drought, which will catch everyone by surprise.

After some time, people in the city who do not have enough water to drink should spend a high price to buy water to drink.

When the money is spent, it can be regarded as a real bucket of water. One tael of silver can buy a lot of water, which is not enough for everyone in the family to drink.

When that time comes, it will be even more difficult.

"I reckon that there won't be any rain this year."

"Is there any water in the well in the city?" An Jiuyue asked again.

"There is still water in the wells, but those wells will be controlled by the government during severe droughts. Otherwise, the water in the wells will be drained soon, and then they will really die of thirst. .”

The soldier leader replied.

There is no way to control the well water, otherwise everyone will rob the well water like a coax, and those who have no water will die of thirst.

"You saw it just now. Every day at this time, the government will beat the gong to remind everyone to fetch water. People with a small population get a bucket of water a day, and people with a large population have about two to three buckets a day.

And those really rich families have wells in their homes, and the water in their own homes is comfortable to use, and they can contribute a little to the common people.

But ah, not too much, after all, when there is a severe drought, the water in the well will also decrease, which is incomparable with when there is a lot of rain. "
