Chapter 49 Compare to what?

The people in the refugee camp now have work to do and three meals a day, so they are naturally much more orderly than before.

Even the many wandering people in the city were also attracted.

Just so I can grab a meal.

For a time, the public security in the city was much better than usual. People in the city were happy, and people outside the city were also satisfied.

It actually made Shen Liuzhen and Xie Yuan feel that this matter was not in vain. It was just...

Shen Liuzhen stood on the shaft of the carriage. Behind him was a cart of logs as thick as an arm, tied up with ropes. The horse pulling the carriage was so tired that it was unwilling to move. It snored and stood there blankly, following Just like fake.

In his right hand, he held an account book that recorded the quantity of various materials. With his other hand, he covered his eyes and looked at the half-built houses in the refugee camp. As if unwilling to give up, he raised his fingers and counted again. He frowned.

He thought for a while, and using his advantage of standing at a high place, he looked for Xie Yuan's figure and jumped off the shaft of the car.

Xie Yuan was moving wood to a house, and when he was putting it down, he saw Shen Liuzhen coming over again.

She bent down and patted the dirt on her body, then straightened her back and stood there with her face turned sideways, waiting for him to come over. There was an impatient look on her face and she said:

"Why do you have so many things to do in a day? If you feel bored, just help move things. Just be lazy yourself and always drag others down. Why do you always find me?..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Liuzhen rolled his eyes, passed her by, and said proudly:

"Who said I came here to find you... I'm just being pretentious."

Xie Yuan was suddenly choked and couldn't breathe, and felt embarrassed. Shen Liuzhen quickly took two steps back and ran back, holding her arm with a smile on his face and said:

"I'm just looking for you...A Yuan, I have something important to tell you, please come here."

Xie Yuan looked at his dog-legged appearance that almost tripped him. He was angry and speechless. He waved his fist and wanted to hit him.

Naihe had long been accustomed to the speed of his facial expressions, so he finally gritted his teeth and endured it, and was dragged aside along with Shen Liuzhen, further away from the crowd.

"Tell me what's going on." Xie Yuan frowned and urged him.

Shen Liuzhen spread out the account book in his hand and pointed at two places:

"Look here...and here. The actual quantity doesn't match up."

Xie Yuan calculated it and found that it was indeed a long way off, and said: "Why is there less?... Could it be that there is another bald man here, taking things from it to line his own pockets?"

Zhou Tuozi and his men, who have been harassed by Xie Yuan in the past few days, are now bringing water back from the moat to mix the mud.

He is so busy all day that he never touches the ground. It would be strange if he still has the ability to profit from it.

Shen Liuzhen said: "No, I pay close attention to the entry and exit of materials. There is a shortage of things in the refugee camp. I guess some people are greedy and secretly took more and hid it."

Xie Yuan turned around and looked at the people behind him who were building houses and moving things, and said with some confusion:

"It's all for them to build a house for themselves, so what are they doing hiding it?"

"Greedy people will always be greedy no matter what they can use or not. Therefore, your patrol team must organize in advance and find the lost materials first. We don't have enough things to begin with, so we have to spend everything we have. If the number comes out evenly, if it is less, some people will not be able to live in it... Don’t worry about poverty and inequality, and then there will be trouble.”

Shen Liuzhen stood next to her, their arms touching each other, and whispered in her ear.

"I know..." Xie Yuan turned around, looked behind him, and said, "If you name all the people between the ages of eight and twelve and give them to me, that should be enough."

Shen Liuzhen moved his lips and finally said: "You can't control those adults with children... How can you do it with children?"

"Why can't you control me as long as I'm here?" Xie Yuan said very ordinary, with a confident and natural expression. It seemed that he had never realized that she was just a child over ten years old. "The most important thing now is to build a house. Older people are It’s labor. If you don’t work hard and work as a supervisor, wouldn’t it be a hindrance?”

Shen Liuzhen subconsciously felt that Xie Yuan was alluding to him, and was a little shy...

But Xie Yuan didn't look at his expression, and added: "It's enough to have a few more pairs of eyes. As long as you find out and report them, I will take the yamen to move them. You should think carefully about how to punish those greedy people." .”

Shen Liuzhen thought about it and nodded. When he saw Xie Yuan turning around to leave, he pulled her back and said worriedly:

"This is something that offends people. You better be careful."

Xie Yuan rolled his eyes at him with disdain and said, "You are a coward. How can you resist if you are afraid of offending others?" After that, he went back to move things.

Shen Liuzhen stayed where he was, looking at Xie Yuanxiao's leaving figure, with a wry smile that was inappropriate for his age on his young face:

He doesn't know how to control his servants. He treats the evil servants in the family with clever words, coercion and humiliation, and waits until his father comes back to deal with them all at once.

He has always been an unworthy child and his health is not very good.

Do you think everyone is like you and making noise like a monkey? Shen Liuzhen complained about her in his heart and turned around to find the roster.

…

…

Thirty-six children between the ages of eight and twelve gathered in an open space not far from the refugee camp. There were also some younger children who followed to watch the fun, making a lot of noise.

Some of them are familiar faces from Guan Yifei.

Just... there are some very tall people. Is it too false to say that they are twelve years old?

Xie Yuan walked up to the most conspicuous and tallest person in the group, three steps away, put his hand on the sword, raised his chin slightly, and asked suspiciously:

"Are you twelve?"

Compared with others, Xie Yuan only reaches up to the neck... She is already considered tall among her peers. That person is so tall and only twelve years old is a bit outrageous.

When the boy heard this, his eyes widened instantly, and he roared in a drake voice that was in the stage of changing his voice:

"I'm only twelve years old. If you don't believe me, just look at the roster! I didn't make it up now! ...My name is Wang Shankui! You can become a general only when you grow taller. You know what a little kid!"

Yes, there is quite severe age discrimination among children. Children who are even one year younger will be teased for being young.

Wang Shankui was so unjustly accused. He was still young and had no government, so he immediately vomited out what was in his heart.

Who wants to listen to a child younger than themselves?

Why not Xie Yuan? Her face turned colder.

If her master said that she was a little kid and knew nothing, she would be convinced. But this guy is just a little older than her and doesn't seem to have much ability. Why should he discriminate against her for being young?!

Xie Yuan sneered and said to him:

"You also want to be a general? Coincidentally, I also want to, how about we compete and see who is the little brat who is ignorant?"

"What are you talking about?" Wang Shankui took a step forward and used his height advantage to bully Xie Yuan. He had a slim figure and raised his chin slightly, looking like he would not accept the challenge.

Xie Yuan smiled, not at all frightened or retreating, but looked up at him and said:

"You decide... I have agreed beforehand that I am a martial arts practitioner, and none of the ordinary adults can be my opponent."
