Chapter 173: Half wowotou

Wind, rain and lightning are lucky. They were lucky enough to meet Zhang Bairen, so they didn't starve to death on the street.
To be honest, the four names of Feng Yu Lei Dian are not very pleasant, but Zhang Bairen thinks that the names are just code names anyway. He thinks it sounds nice, what do the four kids know? How to know the rebuttal?
After a day's rest, Zhang Bairen finished the morning class the next day, then slowly stood up and walked out of the lobby. Looking at the guards who were already waiting outside, behind them were wind, rain, thunder and lightning, four small robes in wide coats, obviously not fitting. The face is yellow and thin, just like a little monkey, closely behind Zhang Bairen, his face full of cowardice.
"My lord, what are these four little monkeys doing with me? Just leave them at the inn." Zuo Qiu Wuji leaned over.
"It's okay. It's good to take them four brothers and sisters to see the world, and broaden your horizons." Zhang Bairen unhurriedly boarded the carriage in front of him, and the four brothers and sisters were led into the carriage behind by Xiaolong.
"Go directly to the place where the canal is dug" Zhang Bairen ordered.
A group of dozens of people passed through the chaotic refugees and walked out of the city. The carriage wheel headed toward the canal excavation.
When I was far away, I heard a loud noise and scolding, which was unbearable.
The servants were begging and the supervisors punched and kicked.
The arrival of Zhang Bairen and his party caused a lot of disturbance. Everyone around them all looked at it. The guard soldiers shouted: "The canal is a heavy place, and no one can approach it."
"Your Majesty is here to pardon the Superintendent of River Patrol, and you are not here to greet you soon" Xiaolong snorted proudly.
In the face of this group of soldiers, if you are not arrogant, these guys will treat you as a grandson, but think you are bullying and embarrass you everywhere.
River Patrol Captain? What the hell? It seems that the court does not have this official position!
In any case, looking at those dozens of muscular bulging guys, they seemed to have a murderous and sturdy aura on their faces. The supervisors did not dare to neglect, and a dozen supervisors ran over together: "See you If you are an adult, please check the token and official letter."
Rules are rules, and the official letter needs to be verified. You can’t just casually come up with a cat, a cat, and a dog.
Zuo Qiu Wuji took out the wooden box from one side, but saw a yellow imperial edict stored in it.
Xiaolong took out the imperial decree respectfully, took the token handed out by Zhang Bairen in the sedan chair, and looked at the overseers with murderous intent in his eyes: "You wait, look at the big dog, we are the commander of the military secret palace. , The superintendent appointed by your majesty to inspect the river just happens to supervise you and other dog officials."
Looking at the dazzling imperial decree and the gloomy token in front of them, the hearts of several supervisors all jumped in their hearts, and they all bowed and bowed: "I'll see the adults."
"Why are you only? What about the rest?" Zhang Bairen sat in the carriage and did not get down.
One of the supervisors hesitated and hesitated, his expression gloomy.
"Say! Where's the rest?" Zhang Bairen snapped, as if thunder and thunder shook the clouds.
"My lord, the rest of the brothers have gone to arrest people. Now that there are not enough servants in the canal, they are going to arrest those beggars and refugees. This is also explained by the master of the house." The supervisor smiled bitterly.
Zhang Bairen frowned upon hearing this: "Catch people? Not enough?"
Slowly raising the driving curtain, Zhang Bairen dressed in coarse linen, with a huge sword bag on his back, a pair of eyes glanced at the overseer below, and at a glance, he could not see the black and crushing figures on the edge, and he was working hard in the cold winter.
Zhang Bairen was expressionless, but the following supervisors were taken aback. Unexpectedly, Zhang Bairen was so young and a bit too young.
The canal servant had a thin face, and he kept digging the soil underneath, picking it up with a shovel, but he didn't feel like eating.
Zhang Bairen got out of the carriage: "You all retreat, this officer just walk around."
The supervisors did not dare to violate them and returned to their posts.
Looking at the yellow-faced and thin-faced servant husbands, Zhang Bairen played with the real water bowl and said nothing.
"Snapped"
An overseer ‘shook’ a long whip from his hand, drew a loud whip in the air, hit a servant, and instantly left a blood mark:
Old thing, don’t dig it quickly, you haven’t eaten!

He looks like an old man in his forties. It stands to reason that even though he has passed his prime of life in his forties, he still has a long way to go to old age. However, at this time, this man is already declining in energy and blood, making him unsightly.
"Master, the little old man only eats half a wowotou a day, a bowl of rice porridge, his limbs are weak and his body is weak, where can I dig it?" The service husband staggered and fell to the ground, his face full of pleading, "Please also The grown-ups will show mercy and give the young man something to eat."
"Eat? It's so beautiful for you. If you don't work, you want something to eat? You can eat a whip!" The overseer's whip danced and crackled, and the beaten old man rolled over.
"Wait, stop," Zhang Bairen frowned while watching.
The "sir" supervisor turned around.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Bairen frowned.
"My lord, this old boy doesn't work well, he's sneaking, and he'll be honest with a whip. They are all cheap embryos, don't fight or work," the supervisor scolded.
"Is the officer blind?" Zhang Bairen picked up the scabbard and slapped the overseer.
Ignoring the supervisor, Zhang Bairen looked at the old man on the ground: "Half and a half a day, a bowl of porridge? What's the matter?"
The old man was also a spirited character. He turned over and fell to his knees, kowtow again and again: "My lord, you have to pity us for the hard-working people, do such a heavy job every day, but only eat half a wow and drink Bowl of porridge! Five or six hundred people have died of exhaustion!"
"Is there such a thing?" Zhang Bairen's expression changed.
At this time, the supervisor came to his senses, and changed his color in a short time after hearing the words: "My lord, it's a group of lowly people who are full of nonsense, don't listen to it!"
"Huh?" Zhang Bairen's eyes flashed coldly, and the supervisor's heart burst out: "I'll give you one last chance to speak."
Zhang Bairen's scabbard plunged into the ground, and the overseer's heart twitched, as if the sword was stuck in his heart.
"My lord, don't blame the official for this kind of thing. The official is only responsible for urging these men to work. Their food is not under the control of the official. For this matter, you should find the official responsible for food."
The supervisor was full of grievances at this time, unable to withstand the pressure of Zhang Bairen, and pour out beans, saying: "No matter what these people eat or how much they eat, our daily work is stipulated, and we cannot keep up with the deadline and cannot complete the work smoothly. , Our group of low-level officials are going to lose their heads. We are only responsible for urging work, not for food."
Zhang Bairen glanced at the supervisor upon hearing the words, and ignored the supervisor's words: "Get up! Go and take a rest."
While talking, Zhang Bairen walked to the side and sat down. This was the situation at a glance. What else could Zhang Bairen say?
The excavation of the canal has only taken a few months, and hundreds of people have been killed. With the decline of the people's health, this number will increase sharply, and the more serious it will become.
"My lord, the food and grass matters are also provided by Huaibei and other places. It seems that these clans are not honest!" Zuo Qiu wuji said.
"The water is very deep." Zhang Bairen rubbed his brows, and then slowly said after a while: "The ears are fictitious and the eyes are believable. Wait till noon to find out."
A group of people sat on the construction site and waited. At noon, they saw the fire-head soldiers walking to the construction site carrying a large basin and a steamer, shouting: "Come, come, eat!"
A group of extremely hungry servants threw down their tools and rushed over, but they evoked a round of beatings, and then half a waffle, a bowl of black porridge, without knowing whether it was added with grass roots or bark.
Zhang Bairen frowned: "Just eat this?"
Looking at the rice porridge in the bowl~EbookFREE.me~ If the dark soup is considered porridge, there is half a wow tou that is too small to be smaller.
"My lord, this is one day's ration. Please comment. We do this kind of manual work every day and we eat this kind of food. Sooner or later, we will be exhausted." , Dare not waste a trace. Even when the dross fell on the ground, the old man even brought the soil to eat with it.
"Go and call the fire chief!" Zhang Bairen looked at the supervisor. The supervisor's life was a little better. He had two wowotou a day. Fortunately, he still had his own rations. It seemed that the supervisor's life was not good.
Hearing the words, the overseer put away the head and ran away with a flushed face.
"The inspector of the river?" In the logistics camp, a man gnawed white steamed buns, placed a pound of pig meat in front of him, drank a little wine, and looked at the supervisor who broke into the big tent, frowning.
