Huainan Road is located at the southern end of the Jianghuai Plain and the river network is spread throughout Gaoyou County.

With the loud whip and the rotating wheels and herds, the towering wooden arms danced in the air, moving and pouring the huge pieces of stone or bucket of stirred mortar into the designated position.

Tu Sanlang, who looked a little premature, and was tanned and skinned all over, held a pickaxe and stood in the muddy and waist-deep water at the mouth of the small river, doing more effort to save the new novices behind him, how to protect their waists and legs, and how to use the simplest movements to complete more work measurements.

Of course, after all these years of hard work, it is enough to make him a good move; as for those who are not hardworking enough, not diligent enough, and not good enough, have been naturally eliminated.

He is the son of a typical Huainan farmer and the eldest son who is responsible for the most things in his family. He only gave such a name to commemorate the first two brothers who died early.

You should know that Huainan is clearly a good place, with fertile land and abundant resources, and there are many fish and rice towns everywhere in Shuiwang River and Alleys;

Therefore, in the years that the older generation remembers, even if there are always wealthy families taking away the big heads of their harvest and heavy taxes spread to them in all kinds of names, the last bit of food left, coupled with fish, shrimp, water and vegetables that can be seen everywhere can still make people barely persevere in the most difficult years;

He also raised several brothers including him who were pale and thin and always couldn't eat enough.

Unfortunately, in his memory, there were only constant wars and fires that caused people to survive, and they were constantly wandering on the road to escape. When he became an adult, there was no place where he originally fled to famine and beg for food.

Then a huge flood on the Huai River completely changed their homes and destroyed their last hopes in their fields. However, the disaster of the flood was far more than that, and even many towns and towns were not spared; when the water receded, the fields were almost full of swollen and rotten corpses of people and animals;

Then there was a plague that spread rapidly. Many displaced people suddenly fell down as they walked, and they just vomited, stinking and stinking to death.

Even those people in the remaining cities, or the remaining wealthy families, did not have much surplus grain to buy their value. Instead, they were very alert and cautious, guarded with sticks, swords and guns. These hunger people who were constantly passing by, and then perhaps the next time they passed by, there would be only a piece of just overburning ruins and ruins left.

He could only watch the dozen people who came out of the house to escape from famine, starved to death in front of him, and then several adult laborers who were the pillars of the family. Finally, he and his eldest brother were also lying on the trunk and dying. They even made a miserable appointment. No matter which one died first, they would create some chance of living for the one who was not dead later.

Then the government army in the south finally came, and called him and his brother alive with a mouthful of rice soup full of sour taste, and then was pulled into a trest land occupied by the government army to work for them in the military farm, thus becoming one of the so-called Laimin Tunkou under the Huainan camp.

It’s a pity that his last relative did not have the life to enjoy happiness. Soon, because he had hematuria during work, he became a part of the mass grave.

Then he survived half-hungry. Being able to join the official army even if he was a mistress means that he could get more food and clothing, and it became the only target that these refugees who survived the disaster were able to count on.

Then the good times may not last long. After only two years, the officials under the banner of Huainan Camp left and retreated one after another. In the end, even the newly settled residents were gradually forgotten and ignored, and no one paid attention to or took care of them.

So many people went out to make a living, and some honest and honest people stayed in place, relying on the harvest of some seeds that had been planted in the field and barely endured. When those who ran out could not survive, they brought more people back to snatch them, pulling out the seedlings and rhizomes in the field and chewing them. Even the hidden seeds were tortured and not spared.

After starving to death and dying of illness, many people died of illness for half a year, an official army from the other side of the Huai River finally took over the garrison and abandoned facilities of the Huainan camp again, and re-summoned the people scattered around them;

After the new rules were announced, they drove them to work everywhere.

From filling the roads, clearing riverbeds, building embankments, and repairing moats; some people were exhausted to death, some people died of illness due to hard work and pain, but no one was starved to death directly, and they were fortunate to survive again.

Then in the process, they quickly saw other things, such as those who had run out to act as thieves and robbing passers-by to do evil, and those whose heads died with their eyes closed were soon hung on the wooden poles set up along the way.

Because unlike the original Huainan camp, these newly arrived officials from Huainan area did not accept the enlistment and surrender of these bandits and bandits, but instead tried to kill them to warn others, or eliminate the evil spirits after unconditional surrender, and defeated the rest of them and sent them to re-transform them.

Only those who are still short of their lives and have no traces of sin or blood in their hands will be placed in the local area and work hard all day long with their old village households.

As the reeds and grasses scattered along the river were burned and harvested one by one by one by them, all kinds of people hiding inside had to be driven out and became a member of the work under supervision in various quarantine camps.

If it is a woman and a child, you will be lucky. After a few days of full meals, you will be shipped to the other side of Huai River to enjoy your life.

And men can only endure hard in this place. According to the words sent by the government army to supervise, Huai land is neither short of people nor idle people nor lazy people. Only those with innocent wealth and good character and the most diligent work hard can have the opportunity to be selected as a short-term helper in the past.

Therefore, the only wish is to perform well in work, be able to be transferred to Huai Shang to work, and even stay in the local area for a long time, and be qualified as a junior household in five years, and live a better life from now on.

According to the descriptions and rhetorics of those who were recruited to the north of the Huai River in their early years, it is the best place to see in this world. There are good water-watered fields and neat and brand new villages everywhere. People walking on the road can wear even a beautiful and decent dress even if they are a farm worker.

Even those who were temporarily dispatched to work can still see oil, water and meat flavors every now and then. They did not eat paste and jacquard, but real brown rice and mixed noodles, as well as salt sauce melon and vegetables to eat.

If it can be transferred to the six Huaidong prefectures in its heart, or Xuzhou and Yanzhou, it will fall into a honey jar. The second is to go to the three states of Denglai Jiao in the east, which is also a safe place for extremely salty fish and rotten shrimps. Otherwise, you can go to the Yanbian prefectures in the north and west, and you can also ensure that you have enough food and clothing, as well as soup and cakes from time to time.

The worst thing is that you have to go to Sizhou and Suzhou opposite Huai River. Although the work you do is not different from that in Huainan, you have subsidized labor and materials, so you can go to local collections to trade.

As long as you can become the first household in Huai Shang, it means that the houses and households that the public can live in, as well as stable and abundant rations, and you don’t have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation anymore and how much labor costs are.

It’s a pity that I was wrong after coming to Huaibei to recruit people in the first few years, the other side no longer gave Yu Jian the chance to become a naturalized person. Tu Sanlang could only look at the former fellow villagers who had transformed into red and neat clothes in the past few years, and showed them all kinds of explanations as heads and supervisors.

However, some sudden changes have occurred recently, which has also affected Tu Sanlang's unchanging daily life.

First, the old yellow sheep who issued a job sign and pumped water privately was arrested by the anti-counterfeiting association. It is said that he was crying loudly at that time, like a weak child, but no one would sympathize with him at all.

With the identity of a small foreman and steward, this guy tried every means to scrape away many benefits from these poor people who were desperate. Through the secret loan of a small amount of materials, many people owed him his debts in private...

However, it was like a big start, and more public people entered the labor camp where they were.

This anger took away more than a dozen people from the bottom up, including the head of the group, the supervisor, the bookkeeper, and the bookkeeper. They were all those who dare not look up and face each other. They were stripped naked like a beleaguered dog, and were taken away with ropes and shackles without any respect.

In addition, there are dozens of battalion servants and stewards who claim to be helping them, and the escorts and stewards in the camp who were accomplices were also pulled out their pants and ate a thrift bar on the spot, and then pulled them elsewhere to supervise them.

But it was a bit surprising that another document nicknamed "Chen Hushi" was also caught in it and was taken away.

He is a kind-hearted person who is regarded as a kind-hearted person by the people in the camp. He often takes the initiative to guide the rules and precautions of those newcomers who have just entered the camp; he gives them lenient and meetings as much as possible for some minor mistakes they make; he even preaches them the reason and reasons after severe punishment.

However, according to the crimes that the visitor publicly claimed, it was such a kind person who would privately misappropriate and deduct the rations from the rations, and to the paste eaten by the laborers, he replaced the coarse ash salt rationed according to the head with the rations of sand, gravel, lime and soil.

Then, the supervisors, stewards and team leaders below were assigned to the newly-detained materials in their personal name to those newly-entered newcomers, and then used this to manipulate and coerce them into groups, and even personally threaten to occupy and enjoy some women who entered the camp.

Fortunately, under the extremely wise leadership of Luo Shuai, this kind of thing would not be allowed to continue. The anti-counterfeiting meeting, personally responsible and led by Qin Xiansi, responded to people's calls in a timely manner and caught these borers and rats, and replaced everyone with a clear and bright sky.

The opposition and spies of the Punishment Association are said to be omnipresent and omnipotent, and they also hold the power of life and death in a sense for their supervisors and managers.

So he became a blessing in disguise. One of the two helpers in the new group of twenty people, he was responsible for custody, tidy up and sorting out the tools needed for everyone to work, and could drink half a bowl of miscellaneous vegetables every day than others.

Don't underestimate this half bowl of batter. It was the most silky part that was scraped out of the bottom of the pot. After eating for several days, he consciously even spoke louder and louder. Not to mention that the new manager called them the day before yesterday, and each person gave him a piece of meat-selling thing.

The salty and oily taste made him drool when he remembered it. Compared to the childhood memory of his childhood, he felt like he was catching fish, catching shrimps and snails, and mixing the light and light taste of half-baked food with fire. I don’t know how much more beautiful it is.

The men who were working suddenly shouted one after another, and some people threw down their tools and rushed toward the high places on the shore; but a faint rumbling sound came from the river in the distance, which shocked them. Then, with the scolding and scolding of the foreman and the generals, they drove the escaped people back, calming the scene of working again.

After a while, they could see clearly the source of these noises.

It was a car and ship that spitted out ash smoke and turned huge paddles, surging waves in the river. The ship was full of strong soldiers with helmets, armor, and guns and swords. The side of the ship was a continuous curved baffle, and the dark and thick tubes stretched out from the gap in the baffle made people shudder just by looking at it.

Behind the ship, there were a variety of boats hanging in the air, like a long water dragon that winds in front and back, which makes people feel dazzled.
