Chapter 285 Different Fates
Xin Nian was naturally unaware that many people were out of their minds, digging their own graves.

Those Fengzhou refugees who were a day behind in catching up with the main group never caught up with the group ahead.

Why? Because Xin Nian and the others are not slow travelers.

Moreover, because they had rested for a whole month, when they set off on their journey, they only had a short rest and meal once during the day and night, and spent only two hours eating and sleeping. The rest of the time they were focused on their journey.

Since I'm still in good spirits, what's wrong with taking a long rest and traveling a bit more? It's normal practice.

The group of refugees from Fengzhou set off a day later than them, and their journey was slow and arduous, so they couldn't keep up with Xin Nian's team.

As a result, the distance between the two grew further and further.

By the third day, the refugees from Fengzhou had completely lost track of the group ahead, making it impossible to find any trace of them and thus even less able to follow.

Do I regret it now? Of course, I am filled with regret. But often, a single thought can lead to a world of difference, and that is the difference in fate.

Of course, the foolish birds who were leisurely waiting in the cave for the main group to return after failing to find a water source would never see Xin Nian and the others return.

These people, living off the water source, could only wait foolishly day after day until all the wheat bran they had was used up. Then they cried out and cursed their parents, trying to find a way to leave the cave and find a way to survive.

But what can we do now? We're completely helpless. There's not even a tree outside, so we can't even put a rope on it. The cave walls are so slippery that we can't climb up at all.

Liu Ergou was filled with remorse. He called out to his father, mother, and wife, regretting that he hadn't listened to his wife and hung out with this bunch of good-for-nothing brothers.

Liu Ergou went berserk and started tearing into his brothers, cursing them for harming people.

Now look what's happened! We're all sitting here on empty stomachs, waiting to die together! Die, there's no way out for us!

Meanwhile, Xin Nian led her team on a seven-day march in one go. By then, the temperature had dropped below forty degrees Celsius, much better than the scorching heat of the past.

Looking at the listless group members behind her, Xin Nian made a frugal decision: the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled would use horse-drawn carriages for transportation for a day.

At most, it can only last one day. The temperature is not yet at its normal level, so it is her top priority not to let the horses and mules she has painstakingly raised get sick.

When Xin Nian released over a hundred horse-drawn carriages and oxcarts, even Old Xin stared in astonishment, "How can there be so many?!"

Holy crap, there must be hundreds of horses and cattle in that herd.
Xin Nian smiled at her father, "You're dumbfounded, aren't you? You didn't know your daughter had this skill."

She kept all the cattle and horses in the transportation area.

Believe it or not, ever since she advanced to the next level, the space in each region has grown exponentially. Just look at the condensed pearls she's made now; they're about the size of a county town. Now, the space in each region can no longer be described as a city; it's practically boundless.

This is nothing compared to what she's done; she can even drive a bus around now! It's just so damn eye-catching, it's a bit disillusioning…

When she went back to find Fatty, she saved Prince Uka and could obtain thousands of cattle and sheep.

In fact, she traded quite a few useful things for them.

Like a herd of wild horses, once tamed by herdsmen, thousands can easily be acquired.

Give them a ruby ​​or sapphire and the people of the grasslands will work hard for you for a whole month; they couldn't be more honest.

Xin Nian has plenty of gems; she plundered quite a few from Princess Jiu Ni's villa alone, not to mention the countless more she later plundered from Prince Jin's villa.

These things are practically useless nowadays. The only way to get so many useful cattle, sheep, horses, tents, tools, and other items is to travel back in time. Try doing it now; they're worthless, less practical than half a bag of brown rice.

So last time, she suddenly had a whimsical idea and wanted to take Fatty back to do a wholesale business, but she never expected to be kicked into the Void by the stingy Heavenly Dao to reflect on her actions.

She's so stingy! What's wrong with getting a little something? She saved Fatty, doesn't she deserve it?

Besides, she wasn't thinking of herself, but of the poor and needy.

"Get on, get on the bus!" Xin Nian waved her little hand, arranging for the Xin family girls to quickly board the bus in a row.

Among them were more than a dozen horse-drawn carriages that they had used during their exile, and they still contained their own belongings.

The carriages were specially labeled with the names of the families and households, such as the Cheng family, the Wang family, and the Han family. These names were checked one by one and assigned to the right people to avoid confusion and chaos.

For the rest, let everyone get on according to their number. Each oxcart can hold at least seven or eight people if you squeeze in. The young men who aren't afraid of the wind can get on the oxcart, while the women can squeeze into the horse-drawn carriages.

If the carriages were to have a number plate attached, the women could remember the number of the carriage they were in. In the future, when they said they were getting on a carriage, everyone would immediately get on their respective carriages, and this way, it would be less likely to cause confusion.

As for oxcarts, it didn't matter. The young men had few belongings, so getting on and off was easy. They could just get on whichever cart was empty.

Everyone quickly got into the car. Mrs. Nie held her little grandson Xinxin in her arms, with her daughters and daughters-in-law all around her, and she was overjoyed.

The Zhang family members went to squeeze into the back carriage, and no one said anything unnecessary.

It's already incredibly kind of them to be able to arrange transportation; what more could I ask for?

The group members were well aware of Sixth Sister's ability to turn her back on them and kick them out of the group. Who would dare to say anything out of line, or complain that life was too easy!

The Zhang family was incredibly grateful; they were able to get a ride in the car even now, something they wouldn't have dared to dream of just over two weeks ago.

Old Xin, with his wife in high spirits, mounted his horse and shouted, "Keep going!" At that moment, Marquis Lin'an, Imperial Censor Yan, and several others stumbled forward, weeping and wailing, "Brother Wenyuan, you can't just abandon us like this..."

The couple looked down and were almost frightened by the disheveled appearance of the Marquis of Lin'an.

Holy crap, how could this have happened in just seven days!

Looking at their well-trained members, although they were a bit listless and like dead fish after traveling for several days, they were still alright. At least they didn't look like beggars picking up trash on the roadside, like the Marquis of Lin'an and his group...

With tears welling up in his eyes, Imperial Censor Yan asked, "Brother Wenyuan, may we get in the carriage?"

"Go for it!" Xin Wenyuan was speechless.

Didn't his daughter pull out over a hundred oxcarts and horse-drawn carriages at once? What are those people behind her still grumbling about? Aren't there still about ten empty oxcarts?
Imperial Censor Yan blew his nose. "Really? Shall we go?"

They were truly terrified by Xin Laoliu these past few days. His uncompromising attitude was no different from that of a tyrant!

We'll set off when we say we're going, rest when we say we're going, and leave immediately when we say we're going. Anyone who dawdles will be abandoned without looking back, no matter who they are!

So how could they dare to get on the bus without saying a word like the members of the Starshine Troupe?

They're unofficial staff! Getting into other people's cars like that, aren't they afraid of being kicked out of the group?
