PS: Thanks to book friend Hua Xiaoyun for the tip.

Ma Datou, who had changed his clothes, stood aside.

He needed to wait for Zhou Youshun and others to finish registering and change their clothes before leaving.

After Zhou Youshun registered, he received a piece of wood with numbers engraved on it.

"Put away the pieces of wood in your hand. When you arrange a place to live, someone will give you a wooden identification card. Then you will have to hand in the piece of wood in your hand." The man sitting behind the table explained.

Zhou Youshun put away the pieces of wood, came to the man who sent the clothes, took the clothes and put them on.

The rest of Laosan and the others did the same. After registering, they received wood chips and clothes.

After all five people put on new clothes, the man who called them into the tent said, "Okay, you can go. Go out from the other end of the tent. Someone will take you outside to do the next thing."

The five people started walking in the direction pointed by each other, and this time Zhou Youshun was leading the way.

The tent curtain was down on the side they were coming in from, but it was open on the side they were going out from.

Several people walked out of the tent and saw two people standing outside.

"Take off your clothes and give them to us. You guys continue to move forward. If you have family members, you can wait for your family members in front." A person guarding outside the tent said to Zhou Youshun and the others.

Zhou Youshun handed over the clothes he took off, and several other people also handed over their clothes.

A four-wheeled cart was parked outside the tent, and many refugees' rags were already piled on the cart.

Zhou Youshun and others walked forward for more than 20 steps, and there was a turning point. When they walked out of the turning point, they saw that many people had gathered outside.

"Brother, it's sister-in-law." The third child pointed at a woman not far ahead and shouted.

Zhou Youshun looked over.

My mother-in-law changed her clothes. At first glance, no one came out. After another careful look, I recognized her mother-in-law Dafeng.

Then, he walked over quickly.

Lao San, Daniu and others also quickly followed.

"Don't block the door. As soon as your family members have gathered together, get on the bus. These big buses will take you to your place of residence." A soldier with the Tiger Flag said to Zhou Youshun and others who had just come out.

Seven or eight four-wheeled carts were parked not far away, and some of the carts were already occupied.

"Brother, shall we go there?" The third child glanced at the four-wheeled cart in front of him and asked Xiang Zhou Youshun.

After arriving at Lingqiu, they had to register their name, place of origin, and other things, and were given new clothes and a ride in a big car.

Although the clothes were not newly sewn and had patches on them, they were rare new clothes for refugees like them.

But such a torment made Lao San feel uneasy.

He had never heard of refugees going anywhere that required such trouble and such a lot of mess. He felt uncomfortable and out of place here in Lingqiu.

Zhou Zhou Youshun first looked at the big car not far away, and finally looked at the family around him, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's get in the car and go together."

As he spoke, he took his mother-in-law and child to one of the four-wheeled vehicles. 139

Ma Datou was alone, so he walked with Zhou Youshun and the others.

There were already several people in the big car that Zhou Youshun went to, and when they arrived, the car was full.

The driver of the carriage said to Zhou Youshun: "Get in the carriage quickly and I will take you to where you live."

Zhou Youshun carried his child into the big car first, and then got on the car with his mother-in-law. The third child and the others followed behind.

The cart was full of people, and the driver whipped up his whip to drive the animals to pull the cart.

"Fellow fellow, are you also a member of the Tiger Flag?" Zhou Youshun, who was sitting in the car, said to the driver with a smile.

The driver turned his back to Zhou Youshun and said: "I am at least half a Tiger Flag man. I usually do some driving work. This time there was a disaster in Shaanxi and Gansu, and many people from your side came. I came here specially to catch the big car to take you to your place of stay."

"Can I ask, where are you sending me?" Zhou Youshun asked.

The coachman said: "I will take you to Zhao Jiayu, where there is a workshop with a tiger character flag. If you can work in the workshop, you can earn at least one tael of silver per month. If you can become a craftsman in the workshop, you can earn as much as It will be higher!"

"One tael of silver? Is it really that much?" The third child came up.

The coachman smiled and said: "One tael of silver is too much? The craftsmen in the workshop only have three taels at least. If you can become a high-level craftsman, it is not unusual to have 10 taels or 20 taels a month."

"How can a craftsman give so much money?" The third child swallowed subconsciously.

It is said that military households have the lowest status, and craftsmen households are not as good as military households. Moreover, as long as you become a craftsman household, you will be a craftsman household for life, and your descendants will be craftsmen households.

The coachman smiled and said, "Don't you understand this? A craftsman's household would be a shabby settlement elsewhere, but here in Lingqiu, he is a treasure. As long as he is that kind of capable person, Tiger Character Flag will be willing to spend money to hire him."

"Oh, it's a pity that I only know how to farm. It would be great if I could also do some crafts." The third child sighed.

The driver said: "It's okay to farm, and there are fields in Tiger Flag that need people to take care of, but the number of people needed is limited. People like you who escape from difficulties usually go into workshops or work as miners."

"It's good to enter the workshop. Once you enter the workshop, you can earn a tael of silver." The third child pursed his lips.

The driver of the carriage glanced sideways at Lao San and said: "I see that you are not old enough to join the soldiers of the Tiger Flag. No, it is called a baggage soldier now. As long as you become a baggage soldier, you can earn 800 yuan a month." A monthly salary, a bucket of grain, and three meals a day are all taken care of by the tiger-shaped flag."

"Three meals a day? Oh my god! How much food does that take?" the third child exclaimed.

He usually only eats two meals at home, and even the landlord Huang's home in the village only eats two meals. He didn't expect that the heavy troops of Tiger Character Banner could eat three meals a day, which made him extremely envious.

The driver said proudly: "Three meals is not normal. We all eat three meals here."

Although Lingqiu is rich and some families start eating three meals a day, this is because the workload of the workshop is heavy and the workshop is responsible for one meal.

There are still some people who still insist on eating two meals, but it used to be porridge, but now they mostly work, and sometimes they can eat some greasy meals.

"It seems that Lingqiu is really wealthy here, and you are not bad at all, fellow countryman. You have two big horses and a four-wheeled cart that can pull you." Zhou Youshun said flatteringly.

The coachman shook his head and said, "I can't afford to raise so many horses. These things all belong to Huziqi. I am just a cart driver, and I usually drive the carts for Huziqi."

"I saw a lot of these four-wheeled carts on the way to Lingqiu. Are they all carts with tiger flags?" Zhou Youshun asked.

The coachman said: "Yes, they are all carts made with the Tiger Character Flag. Some people used to learn from the Tiger Character Flag to make such a four-wheel cart. Unfortunately, they were not easy to use in the end. Only the carts made by the Tiger Character Flag are good." Very useful."

"With so many big cars, Tiger Flag is so rich!" Lao San said with envy.
