The sun is chasing the moon, and the sixteenth year of Zhiyou has slowly come. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info along with the New Year's Festival, is the severe cold that the Great Xuan Dynasty has not encountered in 50 years.

Since the beginning of the lunar month, Jingzhao has been snowing one after another. Heavy snowfall after snowfall, barely stopped, making the temperature in Jingzhao much lower than usual.

Not only Jingzhao, but also the cold weather on the main avenue of Daxuan, and even the wild goose city at the southern end occasionally drifted snow, which is already a wonder of Daxuan.

After learning about the severe cold weather on the main road, the officials of Si Tiantai were nervous. They looked through Si Tiantai's previous records and found that there had been similar weather in the national dynasty for more than 50 years, and later there were various snow disasters, which caused the national dynasty to suffer great losses, which can be said to be a great loss of vitality.

Si Tiantai officials did not dare to slack off, and immediately told the officials of the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry about this grim situation, so that they could make relevant preparations to deal with the next cold disaster.

Wang Dongzhen, the head of the household, complained bitterly in his heart, and went to see Si Tianjian Zhou Yi in person, and asked with a bitter face: "Lord Zhou, is the situation really so serious? Could something go wrong?"

Wang Dongzhen almost said directly, "Lord Zhou, please tell this official that this is fake", this is the voice in his heart, how much he hopes this is the reality.

Zhou Yi's expression was solemn, and he nodded: "Lord Wang, let's prepare in advance, just in case." The official thought that the cold disaster was very likely to happen. ”

These words mercilessly shattered the hope in Wang Dongzhen's heart, and he felt that his heart was also covered with layers of snow, cold and cold.

The weather continues to be cold, and there may even be heavy snowstorms, which just needs to be paid attention to by Si Tiantai and even other officials of the country, but this means a different thing for the household department.

This means that the household department has to allocate more money, money and materials than in previous years to deal with the next disaster.

As for the Ministry of Works, temporary shelters are also needed to house widows, lonely and displaced people, to provide them with shelter and help them withstand the cold. This construction, this shelter, also need to reach out to the household to get money.

The thought of spending so much money made Wang Dongzhen feel as painful as cutting meat. But for the lives of so many people, he had to give out all this money and materials.

At the end of the day, it's all about money.

Money, money, at this time, Wang Dongzhen only hopes that the silver can grow out of the ground. But now in such a cold weather, nothing can grow, right?

Although he was distressed about the money, after returning to the official office of the household department, Wang Dongzhen still issued a strict order, ordering all departments under the household department to allocate money and raise money for the cold disaster.

Thinking of the situation of the dynasty in the past few months, Wang Dongzhen sighed helplessly: "Eventful, eventful!"

He felt that since the Jingzhao Rebellion more than three months ago, the situation in the national dynasty had begun to be wrong.

After the Jingzhao Rebellion, there were also riots in Gangnam Province and Shandong Province, and then thieves were rampant, which seriously affected the prestige of the dynasty.

Before the matter of the thieves was resolved, the weather began to become unpredictable, followed by a summer and autumn drought, followed by a cold that could kill people almost every moment.

Carefully speaking, except for Jingzhao and Hedong Road, the situation is slightly better, and the situation of other major roads is really difficult to describe.

Because Jingzhao was the imperial capital, all measures were done relatively well, so the situation was not corrupted, while Hedong Dao was headed by the Pei family, and contacted the Liu family, the Chen family and other big families in Hedong to raise a lot of money, so it did a better job in the resettlement of displaced people and resisting the severe cold.

I heard that the big clans in Hedong took out a lot of money to build a lot of shelters in Wenzhou, Jinzhou, Jiangzhou and other places to house the helpless people, and also distributed a lot of cold items, including quilts, cotton clothes and so on.

Seriously, Dong Zhen is a little envious. If the other major avenues were also like Hedong Dao, then he would be much easier as the head of the household.

However, there is only one river in the Great Xuan Dynasty. Don't talk about it far away, just say that Jingzhao is good, and the big family of Jingzhao, including the Wang family where Wang Yuanfeng is located, has not moved.

Perhaps the big clans of Jingzhao all think that at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there are all kinds of conveniences, and there is no need for them to contribute money and effort. It just so happens that this is exactly what Tobe needs most right now!

After thinking about it, Wang Dongzhen still decided to take the time to go to the Pei family on Jianzhang Street to learn from Pei Guang, how to unite the families of the dynasty and tide over the difficulties together.

Wang Dongzhen's visit surprised Pei Guang. After hearing the meaning clearly, Pei Guang shook his head and said helplessly: "Lord Wang, please forgive the old man for being incapable of doing anything about this matter." You know, the situation in Hedong Province is a bit special, and it is different from other ways of Daxuan. The fact that the families of Hedong can unite does not mean that other Taos can do the same. ”

How often did Wang Dongzhen not know that this was the truth? It's just that he didn't have any way now, so he had to continue: "Pei Lao, just talk about it, just say anything." It's really hard for the household department right now. For the sake of so many people's lives, please teach a thing or two. ”

Pei Guang was silent, but still said: "My lord, the old man really has nothing to teach. It can only be said that this must be initiated by the big clans of the major avenues, and it may have some effect. ”

There seems to be no difference between what is said and what is not said...... Wang Dongzhen looked at Pei Guang bitterly, refusing to give up: "Pei Lao, then how to make the big clan send money and efforts?"

He knew a little about Pei Guang's old fox's character, so he asked very bluntly, and thought: As long as he can get money from these big clans, he can even have face, what is it to beg a few words?

He wanted to say something, but he paused. Because...... Because Pei Guang actually smiled at him, that excessively beautiful old face just smiled like this, and the brilliance in the phoenix's eyes made him flash!

Wang Dongzhen always felt that something was wrong...... I couldn't speak.

Pei Guang smiled and said, "Lord Wang, the old man can't say anything, please forgive me!"

As Wang Dongzhen said, looking at the lives of so many people, if he had a way, he would definitely say it. It's not that he's hiding it, it's that he's just as helpless.

The situation in Hadong Province is slightly better, but not much better. After all, the cold weather is not limited to one place, but all over the whole of Daxuan.

In the face of these natural disasters, the power of man is too smiling. All the Pei family can do is to contribute as much money as possible. In order to raise money, his second son, Pei Mi, is running around, what can he do now?

Seeing Pei Guang like this, Wang Dongzhen knew that it was indeed impossible, so he had to leave the Pei family with a wilt.

After he left, Pei Guang's smile gradually faded, and finally sighed: "Sure enough, let the little girl of the Zheng family say yes, there is a disaster in the country!"

He twisted his beard and remembered the situation a few months ago......
