Chapter 1899 Population Resources

I was originally worried that I would go to other production teams to recruit people, which would make the people in other teams unhappy. After all, the current production team's method has many disadvantages.

Now that there are people fleeing famine, Jiang Xiaoye has an idea.

With the 320 people in Lugu Village alone, the development speed is simply unavailable.

"If there are good people who escape from famine, there are bad people, it is better to be careful. If people are hungry and they can be driven out of anything." Tan Sitong reminded Jiang Xiaoye. If there are many people who escape from famine, once they gather, something will really happen.

"It's okay, I have a number."

Jiang Xiaoye understands this truth, but nowadays are much better than in the future, because nowadays, the punishments in society are terrifying, and even stealing may kill you. Who dares to do anything randomly?

Now it's not easy to talk to in the future.

"I need some food, and I also need some cash. Director Tan, please prepare some for me and keep it in my account." Even if I don't need food or cash, he can still bring many people back to Lugu Village.

However, he was used to being kind, and he didn't care about this.

"Okay." Tan Sitong knew what he was going to do.

Nearly a thousand people came to Ganshan County to escape famine, most of them were in the city, and only a small number of them had already brought the food they had been asked to continue to escape famine and beg for food.

Liu Jun and Zhao Zhongliang followed Jiang Xiaoye to the area where the fugitives gathered.

"I will release some steamed buns, dried sweet potatoes and the like in the past two days. There is not much grain reserve in the county. After all, we are just a poor county, and they will leave tomorrow."

Liu Jun took Jiang Xiaoye into this area.

Holding a broken bowl, tea jar, gourd ladle, and a bamboo pole in hand, many people were carrying bags, and they were covered in dust and gathered together in groups of three or five.

Most of the people here are children, elderly, women, women, and few young and middle-aged people, and a few young people who look like educated youth come and take care of these people.

When he saw Liu Jun and Zhao Zhongliang coming, several educated youths immediately ran over.

"County magistrate?"

Maybe I have seen Liu Jun, but the educated youth who are the leader are not sure. The three men and two women are much better than others when they see each other, but they have a rope around their waists and bamboo poles in their hands. No matter how they look, they have a bit of the Beggars' Gang's atmosphere.

The two women's faces were deliberately dirty and looked pretty, which was considered a kind of self-protection.

"It's me, let's see if there is anything that can help you. Why do you think of coming to our poor county? Alas, our county has very little grain storage, and it is a famous poor county."

Liu Jun walked over with a smile.

"County magistrate, there are more people going to other counties. Don't think we are not doing well here, but at least we can eat two meals a day, and the children and the elderly cannot be hungry. If we go to other counties, we may eat more than us, but it is also possible that they may not even have the places to ask for things. County magistrate, if you don't give us more things, we can have the confidence to continue."

There is not enough food, and almost all those who can escape from famine in the village have to come out to beg for food. Many people are thinking of dying outside. This time, it is a small escape from famine. Fortunately, when encountering a large escape from famine, there are really corpses everywhere!

However, in this winter when people are frozen to death, small famines have made them difficult for them to live.

The young man who took the lead was generous and seemed to be a knowledgeable person.

"You will have to escape from famine for at least two months. Oh, by the way, let me introduce it. This is the secretary of Lugu Village in our county, Secretary Jiang Xiaoye Jiang. He needs some manpower. Let Secretary Jiang tell you in detail."

Liu Jun knew that it was difficult to escape from famine. Fortunately, this group of people was led by intellectuals and knew where to go and where to find food. If they didn't understand anything, they could not read a few words, and there were many people who were eaten by wild wolves when they walked into the mountains and forests.

Jiang Xiaoye patted Xiaoya's head, and Xiaoya hid behind him and did not dare to show her head.

"Are you college students?"

For college students who went to the countryside, this is a good thing for intellectuals to go to the countryside.

"Yes, my name is Wang Anlin. This is Song Yue, Jin Shishi, Li Chao, Zhang Xianzong. We are all from South China."

When Wang Anlin heard that Jiang Xiaoye needed manpower, his eyes lit up slightly. If there was really a place to provide food and drink for two months, it would naturally be a great thing for the famine team.

Nanhua?

Jiang Xiaoye smiled and said, "I am from Nanjing University and I am considered a neighbor. If there are too many, I won't say much. I need some staff to work, three meals a day, some meat at noon, and I will give you a few dollars a month to work. When you want to return in two months, you can provide each of you with a month's ration and some money. However, the work you need to do is tiring and not a relaxing job. Do you have any ideas? I can't take all of you, only two or three hundred people."

Two or three hundred people are enough!

If there are too many, it will be very troublesome in the early stage.

"There are meats for three meals a day? Is there any wages? Really?"

"When we go back, we will provide one month's ration and money?" Wang Anlin and Li Chao spoke at the same time. The team they were responsible for leading the team were also physically and mentally exhausted. Every day, they were worried that someone would starve to death. More than a dozen of them had died along the way, either they died of illness or starving to death.

They really can't stand it when they experience such separations of life and death at a young age.

They have found many state-owned enterprises in the county, working for free, three meals a day, or even two meals, but now all enterprises are in a difficult situation and their workers have no work to do. How can there be a place for them to work?

Song Yue, Jin Shishi, and Zhang Xianzong also started to talk in a low voice. Unfortunately, only two or three hundred people were needed!

They have nearly a thousand people.

"Song Yue, Shishi, you two will bring a group of people to stay. Let's continue with the team."

After discussing for a while, Wang Anlin spoke.

"I don't, I'll lead the team, you and Shishi stay!"

"Song Yue, you are in poor health. Stay here, Zhang Xianzong, you stay too. Wang Anlin and Li Chao, I will continue to lead the team!"

What made Jiang Xiaoye a little speechless was that the people of this era are really simple. They never thought about staying all of them? It is completely possible to negotiate terms!

He didn't know that these people knew that no one could take in so many hungry belly, even two or three hundred people, it was already full of surprises.

In this way, at least more people can be lived.

"Brother Jiang, can you ask for something?" Song Yue came to Jiang Xiaoye, his face turned red and said, "This time there are many children coming out. Can you take more children?"

Jiang Xiaoye looked up and saw that the children were four or five years old, five or six years old, and these children could not do anything.

"Most of these children were brought out with them, and some were thrown out at home and let them die by themselves, because they would starve to death even if they stayed at home, which could be said to be abandoned."

Liu Jun and Jiang Xiaoye said, "He has also asked about the situation of these children before."
