Chapter 409: Winter

While Hongchen was pondering, Lin Xu had already personally scattered his hands to count the number of people who needed to be resettled in the vicinity of the capital this year. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The number of displaced people is not small, almost one-third more than in previous years.

Not only the homeless, but also the local people's houses are also dilapidated, and some of them can be repaired and barely used when the cold winter comes. I'm more afraid that as soon as the snow is thick, it will become a completely dangerous house, and living in it is a joke of my own life.

The number of people is really terrifying, and looking at the Anmin house prepared by the imperial court, it is a drop in the bucket, even if you squeeze hard, you may not be able to squeeze a small half.

"Hey, it's hard!"

Lin Xu thought that if only he could find a big treasure now, he would use the treasure to coax the rich and noble families in the world to take money and food, and contribute people, maybe he could really survive the disaster year.

It's a pity that you can only think about it.

Hongchen said his idea.

Lin Xu groaned slightly, and smiled unconsciously: "It's a good idea, I remember that there are many people in the northwest who live in caves, warm in winter and cool in summer, and the construction is not complicated. ”

Hongchen nodded: "The imperial court can organize manpower to provide relief through work, and many areas can dig pits, dig holes, and survive this winter first." ”

The two of them sat melancholy for a long time, full of sorrow and depression on their faces.

Luo Niang and Xiao Yan poked aside, their faces were serious, and they sighed together, okay, you two are loyal and courageous, and you are both good people, but the two of you have just been a little hot and showed your friendship to the palace, shouldn't you sit together and say some warm words?

These major events are what the imperial court should worry about.

Okay, they don't object to worrying about the suffering of the common people, but now the entire county lord's mansion is worried about buying food or something, and they can't be busy raising funds everywhere, and there is a lot of food in the village, but so many people want to eat, how can they rely on that little bit alone?

Miss said a word of trust, so many chores, so many big things to them, but I don't want to think about it, they are all subordinates in the end, and at this time, people are even more panicked, how can they not be frightened to support such an important task.

At this moment, the young lady should still take care of the family first, not just pay lip service, but also be active in action.

"Hey!"

The two girls sighed.

They are not without kindness, they have suffered themselves, and they are naturally sympathetic to the suffering people.

They also follow Miss Earthquake Relief every year, those Salesian Bureau, Good Old Church or something, they can't count the various materials they donated, but at this critical juncture, it may be that even their own people have to fold in, so they can't help but think about themselves first.

This is what man can't.

Luo Niang mentioned a few words around the corner, Hongchen responded with a smile, and agreed, yes, save others first and save yourself, if you can't manage yourself, how can you have the strength to manage others?

"Our county lord's mansion is full of talents, our Luo Niang and Xiao Yan are both generals, except for the money I set aside at home, the rest is under your control, and you can also use our connections."

Hongchen smiled, "I remember that Ninghou has ships in several ports, the river is not passable, you can go by sea and land, find a way to go out to buy food, by the way, the imperial court will definitely order the organization of the fleet after a while, you send people to follow, you can rub the light of the imperial court, it is safer." ”

Luo Niang: "......"

What else is there to say, their own young lady doesn't even have time to talk about love, and now if they want to pick up the burden, they have to pick it up.

It's just that Miss joked a while ago that Guigu always likes to use people as livestock, and if she is a talent, she will desperately add to the burden, and she is not afraid of using people badly, and now she herself has this tendency, and she can't wait for everyone in the county lord's mansion to take out the generals who can take charge of themselves.

Now I really want to say that it's not a family, and you don't enter a family.

If Hongchen heard Luo Niang's heart, he would definitely feel wronged.

How is she the same as Lin Xu.

She taught Luo Niang and a few of them seriously, carefully supported and grew up, so many years, little by little, adding burdens, until now they are sure that they are mature enough to share their worries and solve problems, and then they began to open up, like Lin Xu, just grab a child who is still young in his teens, immature like a seedling, and directly put into the high-pressure battle, exercise and become a talent, that is the ...... 'hero's bearing.

fully trusted Luo Niang and them, Hongchen followed Lin Xu directly, and the two of them rarely went in and out together, and they looked quite affectionate.

It's a pity that Lin Xu was so busy that he didn't take a bath for three days, and his beard was shaved casually, although he was born with a pleasant appearance, to the point that he was not unkempt to the point of being scary, but in this state, he didn't even dare to get close to his own girl, for fear of smoking the beauty.

Fortunately, now that I am down-to-earth, I can put Hongchen generously on the tip of my heart, and I don't have to worry that one day she will fly away and disappear.

Moreover, no matter how hard and tired you are, you can take a look at the shadow in the busy, and you can also have a little comfort, which is enough.

Hongchen: This is the first time he has come into contact with Lin Xu's team so closely.

In addition to the old people who have long been familiar with them, such as Mr. Wang Yuandao Wang, there are also many other interesting people.

The most conspicuous is a young man in black, a little older than Xiaohe, and the taciturn one is similar to Xiaohe, but Xiaohe is simple-minded, he is silent, but he is inevitably a little lively in front of acquaintances, and his appearance is too good, everyone pays attention.

This person is different, really from the inside to the outside, it is quiet to the extreme, obviously look carefully, it is also a fair and beautiful face, but at first glance, it seems that only a black fog can be seen, and even the facial features are not very clear.

Lin Xu also only gave a brief introduction, saying that his surname was Qiao, and his single name was a childish character, and he had been following Lin Xu and was responsible for clerical work.

If Lin Dagongzi didn't say it, Hongchen would still think that he was a secret guard, a spy and other characters, after all, he could endure loneliness so much.

The second one worth paying attention to, called the name of the song, is also in his twenties, looks very thoughtful, baby face, double eyelids, big eyes, and always has a smile on his face.

Look at the meaning, this person is mainly responsible for Guigu's external contact and communication, and his work is very in line with his temperament, he loves to talk and can talk.

There are also a few older people.

Wei Gong, who has gray hair and a serious face, is a doctor, a miracle doctor, and his medical skills are also famous in the rivers and lakes.

Another old man with white hair, thin body, and an expressionless face, called Li Su, what specific ability does he have, what errand do he do, Lin Xu didn't mention it, but once Luo Niang's handkerchief was blown away by the strong wind, he chased it back in a moment, and also helped Xiao Yan rescue the wild cat on the tree, and reached the frozen birds on the eaves, obviously the light body kung fu is first-class, uh, he is still a warm-hearted person, especially good to children, Hongchen has seen him several times being grabbed by a group of crazy children outside to swing with his beard, and he is never angry.

There are also many other characters of various types, and even Luo Niang and Xiao Yan finally saw the essence of the Ghost Valley.

Their young lady has worked hard to cultivate talents, I don't know how much effort it has taken to spend so many years, so hard, it seems to be fruitful, but compared with others, it is simply impossible to see.

Luo Niang was wronged by her own young lady.

However, Lin Xu felt that his corner was about to be dug up by his own beauties, and it was estimated that it would not be long before these people were all their own beauties.

Also, Lin Xu squeezed them to work hard, Hongchen boiled ginger soup in the back, boiled hot tea, made all kinds of delicacies, and delivered them on time and on point, and brought a few flower-like beauties to help deal with all kinds of sundries.

Although Luo Niang and Xiao Yan are too busy and have to stay in the county lord's mansion to do their own things most of the time, the other female officials of the county lord's mansion are also trained by Hongchen's strength, and it is not as simple as literacy and hyphenation.

The girl is careful, and she has been with Hongchen for so many years, she is organized, and she has done her assistant's work to the extreme.

After their skillful tidying, Lin Xu is finally not a mess here, what information and documents are you looking for, you can send them immediately with a shout, the water in the cup is always palatable when you are thirsty, what you want to use, with a look, the thing will be handed to you.

The work efficiency has increased greatly, so that not only do you not have to work overtime continuously, but you can also find time to eat and drink every day.

Everyone on Lin Xu's side felt that they had gained a lot of weight in a short period of time, and in previous years, once they were busy, they were quite exhausted, and they worked overtime for half a month, and the whole person was not human.

This kind of benefit may not be seen in one or two days, but in a few more days, everyone is a human spirit, and where can it be experienced.

The female officials around Hongchen integrated into this group silently and effortlessly.

At the beginning, when Hongchen was brought by Lin Xu with the women's army, these people were not without worries in private, afraid that their eldest son would be dizzy, and the people brought would only add to the chaos, but the result would not be long, if Lin Xu dared to destroy the people again, they would all rush over and hug his thighs and cry bitterly.

I have enjoyed a group of female officials and beauties, who are careful and thoughtful, meticulous, and all-round service, who would like to go back to live a hard life in the past.

Hongchen is also quite satisfied, that year she listened to the words of her predecessors in the Yujue space, and took out a group of careful and stable girls for the so-called secretary training, and hesitated at the time, after all, looking at the introduction, it seems that they are all serving people's work, if it weren't for the female officials who are willing, they just want to serve Hongchen, whether this can be done or not, especially unknown, but later saw the benefits, and even Hongchen followed the blessings.

Although on the county lord's side, the number and type of talents seem to be far from being comparable to Guigu, but they are also indispensable.

These words were not Hongchen's boasting, they were all said by those under Lin Xu's hands.

Everyone is living like a year, Hongchen feels that he is about to be busy to the point of numbness, and the cold winter is finally coming.

It seems that at a certain moment, the ice on the ground is thicker, the wind is colder, the snow is heavier, the water of the wells and rivers is frozen solid, and the streets are gradually depressed.

All the grain shops are closed, and the prices are incredibly high.

It is true that the imperial court has always been controlling and not allowing price hikes, but this kind of thing is always a policy and a countermeasure, not only in the capital, but also in various places that can operate a grain business, most of them are hand-eyed, and it is not easy to get along.

In addition, we can not let the price of grain be too expensive, but we can't afford the lack of materials, and there is only a little bit of food, even if it is sold cheaply, it will never be enough for the people to eat.

It's okay to have grain in stock, but those in the capital who don't have grain in stock, or who are shallow-eyed, take advantage of the high price of grain and sell all the grain at once, can now be caught blind, and they can't buy grain with a lot of silver.

In the past two days, the court has been extremely nervous, and every time like this, I have to worry about the chaotic people, there is no way, once I don't even know if I can save my life, people will always go crazy.

The common people are the same, if they can live peacefully, no one wants to toss around, they are all tame lambs, but once they live, no matter how honest the sheep is, they will become ferocious wolves.

Most of the ideas that Hongchen came up with were adopted by the imperial court, and it was not only her, the imperial court was full of talents, and it was not inexperienced in dealing with such a cold winter.

A month ago, a large number of officials and ministers were sent to various places affected by the cold snap to supervise the cold and organize the local people to dig caves.

There are also in the capital, and during the construction, Hongchen and Lin Xu took a look, and the wisdom of the people should not be underestimated.

In Hongchen's imagination, it is just to dig a big pit, which can block the wind, everyone lives together, it is always much warmer, but the work done by the common people is not so simple, each village is digging a big pit in the open area, and then digging one small hole after another around it, and piling up the dry grass, rags, and all kinds of things that can prevent the cold from collecting it, adults and children live in it, and outside the big pit is the fire that the court helped to rise, steaming, and they also find a way to repair the hole so that the hole can barely let in some light, It's not particularly dark, and it's quite comfortable.

With these caves, the imperial court is also a little relieved, and it can always save some materials for disaster prevention.

Many well-informed officials came to thank him, including Xie Hongchen, and more Xie Linxu.

Lin Xu politely sent people away, and turned around with a wry smile: "This little bit of saving, in fact, where can they be greedy, if one person is less greedy than half of them, I don't know how many people's lives can be saved." ”

Let's talk about it privately.

He and Hongchen are not dust-free people, the Great Zhou Dynasty has accumulated shortcomings for a long time, and the problem of unclear governance can not be solved in a moment and a half, not to mention that they can't manage it, they can't manage it if they are not in their position, they can't manage it, even if they can really manage it, I'm afraid they don't dare to make a big move at this time.

If there are not enough reserve officials who understand the situation, the situation will get out of control when the time comes, and the people will have no one to take care of them, let alone have a way to live. (To be continued.) )
