When Xie Qiao listened to the shopkeeper's words, he probably understood a lot.

Shopkeeper Chang looked at the little girl and felt that the little girl would be naive, so he explained: "This rat disaster is very scary. I saw it once when I was young, and those mice were in groups. The appearance of the group is not afraid of day and night, and the house, whether it is wood or porcelain and pottery, will almost be eaten, and even the house cannot be preserved, not to mention the chickens, ducks, cattle, sheep, and fields."

"The cropland that the mice ate was in a short while, no grass grew, and the mice were not afraid of people, and there were some people who were bitten to death by mice. Fortunately, this time the scope of the mouse disaster was not large, otherwise, the court's side You must be overwhelmed, how many other disaster victims are outside the capital?"

Shopkeeper Chang sighed.

"It's getting colder and colder these days. Outside this year... there may be a lot of people who freeze to death." Shopkeeper Chang added.

"In the capital, there should be a lot of wealthy families who donate porridge to do good deeds. When I came to Beijing, I looked at several porridge sheds outside, and people gave quilts. How could there be many frozen to death?" Xie Qiao asked.

It seems that there are not too many victims this year, and the necessary materials should be able to be.

Shopkeeper Chang glanced outside and saw that no one was coming, so he said, "If you get something donated by others here, you will be taken away there, how can you use it?"

"Robbery?" Xie Qiao frowned slightly.

"The victims are not allowed to enter the city unless they have work to do. How can there be security in the city outside the city? There will be some hooligans who are specially guarding outside the city, watching someone get something good, and they look like they are easy to bully, they will go to the city. I robbed things in the past, and the things that were robbed changed hands and sold them to pawnshops. The pawnshops are also doing business here. How can they not accept them when they come to the door? "The shopkeeper said mysteriously.

Xie Qiao didn't even have to think about it to know that this thing finally...

It will be bought by a wealthy family, then changed hands, and sent to the outside of the city.

"The clothes are going to be robbed, and the food won't be any better, right?" Xie Qiao said again.

"No, most of the disaster victims outside rely on some porridge or work to earn some money to support themselves, but most of them drink porridge for several months, how can their health be improved? Their faces are yellow and skinny, and it is difficult to find a job. People distribute rice grains directly, but the same, they will be robbed." The shopkeeper laughed.

Although cruel, but he is a disaster victim, how can he live well?

It's just food and clothing.

It’s not always easy to build houses directly outside the city, so they are all simple shacks.

This winter is cold and cold, and in a few days, I am afraid it will be dripping into ice.

When it snows, the shed will probably collapse.

But this is the case, I am afraid that this day is not bad in the hearts of the victims.

If it was that year of catastrophe, it would not be surprising to change your child and eat. Although some people will freeze to death now, most people can survive it. As long as the ice and snow melt in the spring, they can return to their hometowns.

Xie Qiao was thoughtful.

Seeing that Xie Qiao was silent, the shopkeeper suddenly felt a little guilty.

This little girl is weak, don't be frightened.

"Actually, it's not bad. There are not many victims this time, and life is much better than before. The girl is still young and has never seen the scene of the disaster in the past. Now it's really nothing outside." The shopkeeper said again.
