Under such circumstances, it is conceivable that this grain will definitely rise. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The rich men of the city hurriedly stocked up on grain.

As the head of a county, Hu Rui became worried.

Because some ordinary people already have insufficient food, this will cause social instability.

As Hu Rui's pillow person, Mrs. Hu Er knew a little about these things, and she also became worried, and discussed with Mrs. Liu, the official wives, and Mama Zhu's henchmen whether to open some porridge shacks or something.

Mrs. Liu felt that the matter had not yet reached that time, and she would wait and see, otherwise it would cause everyone to rush to buy food even more frantically, and be afraid of the panic of the people.

However, two days after saying this, there were murder and robbery cases on some official roads outside the city, several caravans were robbed, individual passers-by were killed and looted, and even some poured into the villages to grab food.

The government here also sent officers and soldiers to arrest one after another, and arrested some people, only to find that they were refugees who had fled from the north.

There are also some refugees in the city who have poured in, but I didn't expect that there are more and more refugees, and some of them who have not been resettled have started these snatching brains.

At this time, Mrs. Hu Er organized several official wives to open a porridge shack together to supply those refugees.

Soon after, the imperial court's grain collector came.

This team of grain collectors is very powerful, and along the way, they have all picked up the refugees in turmoil, the bandits who take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters, or the spies of the enemy country who are creating chaos, and suddenly the official road is extremely smooth.

There is a war going on in the northwest, and now it is the official grain that has come to collect it.

At this time, many wealthy families were silent, and they did not dare to buy food at will, for fear of being targeted by the people of the imperial court.

He Yunling saw Feng Jun when she was dividing porridge on the street, dressed in an official uniform, tall and straight, compared with four years ago, his face lines were more tough and cold, his eyebrows were calm and introverted, and he was mighty and impressive.

It seems that he is the grain collector.

He Yunling nodded at him, which was a greeting, but he didn't know if he recognized him.

It's not that she's narcissistic, but she's really changed a lot, from the previous bun face to the melon seed face now, and the whole person's demeanor is different.

Feng Jun also nodded at her and walked over to her.

He Yunling was stunned for a moment, is this to reminisce about the past?

Feng Jun walked up to their group of soup cooks and arched his hand to Mrs. Hu Er and the others, "I am Feng Jun, the grain collector, and I want to ask Mrs. about something." ”

Mrs. Hu Er is also here, and there are a few other official wives, usually they don't come often, these are just handed over to the next person, but today because it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, this is particularly meaningful, there are many refugees outside the city who have run from their homeland and left their hometowns, and the wives also hope that their appearance can bring them some hope, of course, many of them are accumulating for their husband's reputation.

The wives saluted him back, and Mrs. Hu Er explained these two sentences and asked him to talk in the shed next to him.

Feng Jun glanced at He Yunling, "Miss He should also know something about this." ”

Mrs. Hu Er was stunned, how did this person know Sister Ling?

He Yunling took Mrs. Hu's arm and walked to the shed first, where there were many people.

Mrs. Hu Er also knew this truth, and although she had doubts, she still held back.

Feng Jun then asked the people who were opening porridge sheds here these days.

These are all things that Mrs. Hu helped organize, of course she knew, and told Feng Jun one by one, and she faintly guessed the reason why Feng Jun asked these things, so she said again, "I will discuss with them that there is surplus food in the house, and see if I can donate some to the imperial court." ”

Feng Jun really gave her a look, "Madame Gaoyi! ”

Mrs. Hu Er hurriedly waved her hand, "We can't do it, we are just doing our best, and we can't say anything." ”

It is not difficult to see from Feng Jun's demeanor and age that this is a well-born son, and he is also a very good son-in-law, otherwise he would not have taken on this important task at a young age, Mrs. Hu Er was happy from his praise in her heart.

"I have to trouble Mrs. here to list these rich families for Feng."

"That's fine."

Finally, Feng Jun looked at He Yunling, "Miss He hasn't seen her for many years, don't come to harm?" ”

He Yunling followed over and really thought there was something wrong with him, so she said this, so she couldn't help but widen her eyes and nodded at him, "Everything is fine." ”

Feng Jun bowed, then said hello again and left.

After he left, Mrs. Hu Er immediately asked, "How did Sister Ling know this Lord Feng?" ”

He Yunling didn't dare to say that she met at the hot spring, but only said that when she was in Baolian Nunnery, she met the Duchess of Zhenguo because she recognized the wrong person.

"He came over to say hello, he should have felt embarrassed at the time, after all, we all came from the capital and knew each other."

Mrs. Hu Er nodded, it seems that this Lord Feng is quite righteous.

Then return to Hufu.

Mrs. Hu Er found someone to list some rich households in the city, and He Yunling happened to be on the side, so she chatted with her, "It seems that this Lord Feng wants to start from the rich households." ”

He Yunling nodded, "I think this is a good way, many rich families are already rich, and they are still rushing to hoard grain, and then sell it at a high price to make some disaster money, if there is a way for them to donate some, it should also be." ”

"Isn't that so?" Mrs. Hu Er also thinks so, those rich people are getting richer and richer because of the flood, and it is the common people who suffer, "It's just that those people are very good and used to reducing poverty, if they are allowed to donate, a small amount may be available, but if the amount is large, it will be difficult, and I don't know if Lord Feng has any good way to make them donate food willingly." ”

Mrs. Hu Er subjectively thought that this Lord Feng would have a way in her heart, and she didn't know if it was her intuition, she felt that this Lord had an excellent appearance, a calm posture, and silently gave people a feeling of convincing.

He Yunling shook her head, "Then let's take a look." ”

Feng Jun, who was pinned on by Mrs. Hu's second wife, encountered a problem, as Mrs. Hu Er's said, these rich families are willing to donate a small amount of food, but they are unwilling to do more, and the small amount is only a few hundred catties, Feng Jun knows that these people are hoarding far more.

But they could no longer dig more food out of their hands.

It has also become difficult to collect food this time.

His staff, Mr. Kong, asked the government office here to draw up a list of honors and engrave the names of those who donated on the monument of honor.

It's just that after this came out, the effect was not great, and when I went to them again, they shouted poverty.

Moreover, the court did not give much time, because the war on the border did not wait for anyone, and if the food was collected one day earlier, the sergeants would be able to eat a day earlier, and there would be more possibilities for victory.
