Chapter 36 Resettlement

After all the refugees had rice porridge and medicine to warm their stomachs, Duan Shubai arranged for people to organize the refugees to board the ship.

The couple of the Grand Administrator Sun came to see them off.

Sun Zhixin sighed: "The issue of the refugees in Jianzhou has finally been resolved. Although it has paid a little price, it is better than previously estimated."

"Master Duan, I have prepared a ship of food. This is donated voluntarily by the people of Xuanzhou to the refugees. Please help me accept it."

Duan Shubai smiled and nodded: "On behalf of the refugees, I thank the people of Xuanzhou and the Grand Administrator."

"By the way." Duan Shubai suddenly mentioned: "Please ask Grand Administrator Sun not to let people talk too much about Yangzhou's sheltering of refugees."

All states have turned away refugees, but Yangzhou has taken the initiative to shelter refugees. If it is widely publicized, it may attract attention.

Sun Zhixin nodded in understanding: "Don't worry, I won't say more, take care, Lord Duan."

Duan Shubai smiled and said: "Take care, Lord Sun too. By the way, if there are more refugees from Jianzhou in the future, they can also be sent to Yangzhou."

Duan Shubai said goodbye to Governor Sun and helped the refugees line up to board the boat. He carried some of the disabled people on the boat. The old woman who stood up to follow him first was named Jing Shuyun. He helped old lady Jing board the boat with her crutches. Old lady Jing thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, General Duan."

Hearing the soldiers around them calling Duan Shubai General Duan, they followed suit. Calling him Duan Taishou always felt that he was not brave enough.

Five large ships left the dock, carrying more than 600 refugees from Jianzhou and more than 100 officers and soldiers from Jianxing, and headed for Yangzhou along the river.

The refugees on the boats were squatting, sitting, or leaning on the planks. Some of them were even curious about riding a large ship for the first time, looking around on the deck. The ship moved forward farther and farther, and the dock of Xuanzhou gradually shrank into a black dot. The cold wind in the river made the flags on the boats flutter. The refugees drank the hot porridge, and their hearts were warm. They were not afraid of the cold wind on the river at all.

"Yuhe, do you want to rest in the cabin? I'm afraid you will get seasick."

Duan Shubai stood in front of Xiao Yuhe and said with concern.

Xiao Yuhe shook his head: "I'm fine. I didn't eat anything this time, so I shouldn't get seasick. Don't worry. I'll check the pulses of some sick and injured refugees and help them treat their wounds."

"Then be careful. Tell me if you can't hold on."

Xiao Yuhe nodded, squatted on the ground, and treated the refugees lying on the ground and wailing.

The refugees saw that this elegant and fairy-like young man was not only a skilled doctor, but also the general's wife. General Duan was willing to take them to Yangzhou, and the general's wife also treated them. This couple was really kind-hearted. I heard from General Duan that Sun Taishou of Xuanzhou also sent them a boatload of food. There are also good officials in the court.

They actually suspected that Lord Duan intended to sink the ship and harm people. They really didn't know the kindness of others.

"I want to see the water outside the boat..."
