Fu Chang thought to himself that once the rice was harvested, he would arrange for a group of young and strong men to go out of the mountains, both to purchase supplies and to gather news from the outside.
The old man was very afraid of Fu Chang leaving, so he hurriedly asked, "Is the County Lord going to lead the team?"
Fu Chang shook his head, "No, let Zisong lead the team out."
Fu Yong, courtesy name Zisong, was given the name by Fu Chang not long ago; once he had a courtesy name, he was considered an adult.
The old man was relieved to hear this. Fu Chang didn't plan to abandon them, so he said, "County Lord, you are wise," and turned to go harvest soybeans.
Before the calamity, Fu Chang was the He Yin County Magistrate. When He Yin City fell, he could only lead the people in fleeing, resulting in them scattering in different directions. With refugees from other places joining them, the number of He Yin citizens still following him became very few.
