    Liu Zhe only knew that Xi Zhao Xi went to the city to recruit refugees early in the morning. Xi Zhao Xi did not tell him exactly how many people there were. When he saw the dark crowd, Liu Zhe was shocked. He felt that there were so many people.  There were at least two to three hundred people.

    "Sir, there are a total of two hundred and seventy-two people. Many of them are people from my hometown. They are loyal and trustworthy." Xi Zhaoxi said.

    Since some of the refugees recruited before were motivated by wealth and seduced thieves, Xi Zhaoxi put a lot of effort into selecting this group of refugees who were law-abiding and self-sufficient.

    Liu Zhe said nothing. It was the first time for him to see so many refugees, and he was deeply shocked.

    Many of these refugees are in rags, their faces are lined, their spirits are low, their eyes have no luster, and they seem to have lost hope in the world.  Many people have a skinny appearance and a skinny body.

    Rather than saying that they are refugees, it is better to say that they are a group of beggars. Because of the disaster in their hometown, many people migrated as a family and left their hometown, hoping to survive outside.  Liu Zhe saw that many people were bringing their families with them, and there were many children. The very young ones were held and carried on their backs, while the older ones stayed with their parents during the annual vacation.

    "Master, if you think there are too many, you can choose some, you don't have to keep them all." Seeing Liu Zhe's silence, Xi Zhaoxi thought that Liu Zhe thought it was difficult to handle too many people.  In fact, Xi Zhaoxi also knew that he had gone too far, but he really couldn't watch his fellow villagers suffer, so he simply brought them to Liu Zhe to choose.

    "Accept them, Mr. Xi, you must arrange them properly." Liu Zhe suddenly spoke, these people, Liu Zhe felt that something needed to be done for them.  It costs 30 gold a month to raise a refugee. The simplest food and drink for these people cost Liu Zhe about 100 gold a month. But Liu Zhe thinks it doesn't matter. If the money is gone, he can make money again.  If these people drive away one of them, Liu Zhe will not be able to live with his conscience.

    "Thank you so much, sir." The opera host was overjoyed and thanked Liu Zhe on behalf of his fellow villagers. Then he loudly said to the refugees, "Thank you quickly for taking you in."

    "Thank you for taking me in, sir." The refugees knelt down in darkness to thank Liu Zhe.

    Liu Zhe quickly jumped away, refusing to accept the kneeling of these refugees. He said: "Everyone, get up. The rules here are very simple. You are not allowed to kneel down casually. You all follow the arrangements of the theater steward."

    After Liu Zhe finished speaking, he handed the matter over to the opera hall and ran away in a hurry. He really didn't want to be knelt down by the refugees.  It's like he doesn't want to be kneeled down at the theater table.

    It was not until noon that the theater temporarily settled the refugees. They were given a meal first, and then they were given tools to cut wood and build houses.  Although Liu Zhe's Zhuangzi is large, it is impossible to accommodate almost three hundred people.

    The refugees were very excited after eating. According to the instructions given to them by the play hall, this place is equivalent to their new home. The owner is Liu Zhe. The fields are allocated to them for farming on a per capita basis. Before the next grain harvest, their food  Liu Zhe provided them with all the food.  And they only need to pay a small part of the rent, and the rest belongs to them.

    At the beginning, the refugees were shocked when they heard such good conditions, because there had never been such a good owner in the world. The refugees even doubted whether they had been cheated, but they gave them repeated guarantees and a bowl of white flowers at the theater banquet.  Under the rice, they believed it.  After eating, they didn't need to talk much at the banquet. They took the initiative to work, tidying up their own world, cutting down trees and building houses, etc.

    In the afternoon, Liu Zhe squatted at the door and watched the refugees working in full swing in the distance. The more he watched, the happier he became. He was not only happy that he had so many tenants, but also happy that he could do something for these refugees.

    Originally he was restless and wanted to help, but as soon as he showed up, the refugees knelt down to thank him and resolutely refused to allow Liu Zhe to help. In their words, they had already eaten from Liu Zhe and could no longer help him.  It¡¯s causing trouble for Liu Zhe.

    Liu Zhe had no choice but to go home and be bored in a daze.

    He has nothing to do recently. He has added three rooms for brewing wine and taught Xi Zhongxi how to make wine. Who knew that after teaching Xi Zhong Xi how to make wine, Xi Zhao Xi took care of everything himself and would not allow Liu Zhe to do it again.  Too much intervention.  The reason for calling for a theater banquet is very reasonable. Liu Zhe is the master and cannot do such rough work.

    So Liu Zhe was so bored that he wanted to watch the fun at the door.  Just when Liu Zhe was bored, Guan Yu came to him with two people.

    "Master, I think you should meet these two people."

    "What's the matter?" Liu Zhe stood up, very interested. He was having nothing to do.

    "The two of them have good skills." Guan Yu said to Liu Zhe.

    It turns out that Guan Yu and Dian Wei were summoned to the banquetHe went to work as a strong man and help the refugees, so he knew that these two people were quite capable, so he planned to introduce them to Liu Zhe!

    "Good skills?"

    Liu Zhe¡¯s eyes suddenly lit up
