I traveled through time and space and encountered a famine, and I became a hermit.

Chapter 306: Distributing Cotton Clothes and Quilts

While the two soldiers were talking, the Gu family had already arrived at the city gate.

The soldiers who had just run down were surprised and thought to themselves that the speed was too fast!

But now is not the time to think about this, so he hurried to the small room near the city gate, found his leader, and reported the situation.

Xinlong City is in a state of disrepair and a normal entrance fee will be charged.

The Gu family paid the entrance fee according to the city rules. Gu Dajiang took a bag of braised meat and a piece of change from the car and came to the team leader guarding the gate.

After bowing, he handed over the gift and said, "Thank you, sir."

The team leader took a look at the gifts sent by the Gu family and was quite satisfied.

He handed the package to the follower behind him and asked, "What do you do?"

“In reply to your question, we are from the neighboring county. We have collected some old clothes and beddings at home. We thought that the people in Longcheng might need them after the new construction, so we took advantage of the New Year to bring our families to transport them here.

Unexpectedly, all the houses we saw along the way were made of the same brick and stone, so it was not a good idea to knock on any door and ask.

Could you please give me some advice, sir? Where can I find those who need something to keep warm? "

The captain of the city guard looked suspicious when he heard this.

If anyone needs something to keep warm, everyone in Dragon City needs it!

Although this family seems to be of noble character, how could they possibly have such a good thing happen to them? In the freezing weather, they came all the way here to do good deeds?

Just when the captain of the city defense team was puzzled, the general of the city defense came out with the soldier who reported the news.

When the captain saw the general coming, he immediately stepped forward to salute and reported the situation to the general.

The general stepped forward and took a look at the Gu family, then looked at their convoy.

But the vehicle they were driving was similar to the one Wang’s army used when they migrated a while ago.

And it looks obviously more solid than the one Wang Jun has equipped.

For a moment, I was not sure about the identity of Gu's family.

He stepped forward politely, bowed, and asked, "May I ask your name?"

"No, no, my name is Gu Dajiang, and these are my old father, family members, and servants behind me..."

After introducing their family, they also talked about the purpose of their visit.

After listening to this, the general defending the city asked again: "Your car is very similar to the one in the army. What is the relationship between them?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Dajiang had to reveal his relationship with General Rong and the others.

"General, we are old acquaintances of General Rong and General Xu. We are preparing to donate these old cotton-padded clothes and quilts to the poor families, and then go to the military camp to visit them."

When the general defending the city heard this, he realized there was such a relationship and became more polite towards the Gu family.

It’s no wonder that the general defending the city believed it so easily, because only Wang Jun has this kind of vehicle.

This was only the second time he had seen this, and the vehicles in front of him were more solid than those of Wang Jun. If his guess was correct, these people might be the ones who provided vehicles for the army.

Only people like this would come to deliver cotton-padded clothes and quilts to poor people regardless of the New Year's Day and the wind and snow.

Thinking of this, the general guarding the city was deeply moved. He gave his subordinates a few instructions and said to Gu Dajiang, "Please! I will take you there personally."

"Thank you very much, General!" Gu Dajiang bowed and saluted.

Mr. Gu and others who were following behind also followed suit and bowed.

Along the way, the general defending the city told the Gu family about the situation in Longcheng.

After the great chaos, Longcheng was lost. Although it was recaptured at this time, there was still a lot of work to be done and only a very small number of people migrated there.

Although the city was recaptured, the court did not send a prince to guard it. Only a county magistrate and a general in charge of defense jointly managed Longcheng.

Rather than saying they are managing, it would be more accurate to say that these people are sent as vanguards to rebuild Dragon City.

Fortunately, the county magistrate was a new official who had ideals and ambitions for his career. He was also a man who got things done and could understand the sufferings of the people.

With the civilians and soldiers who had migrated here just a few months ago, they built several houses in the towns and counties along the way and divided several households, and finally reconnected the destroyed Dragon City.

After the snow fell, everyone was gathered in Longcheng and the shops on the street were ordered to open 24 hours a day to prevent anyone from starving to death or freezing to death.

However, there is nothing in Dragon City. There are few people, and the ground freezes when it snows, making it inconvenient to transport supplies.

Even if there is inventory and even if there are few people, it cannot withstand the daily consumption.

Moreover, most of the people who migrated here could not make a living in their hometowns. They were poor themselves, and we could not expect them to contribute any materials.

Nowadays, people in the county are struggling and try not to go out unless necessary.

After hearing about the situation in the county, the Gu family also felt very uncomfortable.

In the final analysis, it was all because of the inhumanity of the rebel army. They destroyed the city and killed all the people. Now no one dares to come to such a large place.

Under the leadership of the general, the Gu family came to the residential area where the poor people were resettled.

The general ordered his soldiers to knock on doors of every household to announce the good news. Suddenly, the entire residential area became bustling with activity.

When people heard that some kind-hearted people came to donate clothes and quilts, regardless of whether they were truly kind-hearted or not, they all opened their doors and quickly retreated into their rooms.

It's not that they were embarrassed, it's just that their clothes were too thin to leave the house.

The general understood their situation and hurried to explain it to the Gu family.

Gu Fu had already used his mental power to detect the situation inside.

I saw people wearing thin clothes and shoes with holes in them.

Facing the charcoal basin where sparks flickered, I tried hard to absorb the last bit of warmth.

Some families huddled together in the corner, covered with the only quilt, shivering in the cold room...

Hearing the shouting outside, everyone showed the same desire on their faces.

After listening to the general's explanation, the Gu family understood very well.

He then instructed the smart housekeepers, who also joined in, and asked the soldiers to help, distributing cotton clothes and quilts to the people from door to door.

Gu Fu even personally picked up a few sets of cotton clothes and ran to the families where the situation was most serious.

Song Renjing wanted to go with Gu Fu to deliver the quilts, but just after taking two steps, he was stopped by Old Man Gu, "Ah Jing, where are you running to? Hurry up, follow this row and deliver the quilts door to door!"

Without giving him a chance to react, he pulled him over and pushed him into the alley opposite to Gu Fu.

"Yes, Grandpa." Seeing that he was already at the entrance of the alley, Song Renjing could only respond helplessly.

Everyone worked together and quickly distributed cotton clothes and quilts.

Gu Fu even released his mental strength, and placed a 20-kg bag of rice in modern packaging at a suitable location in each house where no one would suspect him.

The people put on their warm winter clothes and felt like they were alive again.

Some were so moved that they burst into tears on the spot.

I finally found a new place to live, but I almost froze to death here.
