177 The first disaster relief in winter

Yang Weiai is pregnant, and Mu Fusoo's dowry has also been sorted out and packed into storage. Cui Yuanqi is now a part-time secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the emperor's wedding is for him to manage, but he himself has never been married, so he really doesn't know anything about this. Fortunately, the four Xi Mama experienced the wedding of the eldest princess and were sent by Yang Weiai to assist.

I don't know if it's because the Great Sui finally "Kuang Fu", the emperor finally surnamed Yang, the weather is quite normal after winter, only a big and a small two snows, there are many wastelands outside Chang'an, since San Lang ascended the throne, there are aborigines who have moved back one after another, and there are people from other places who have fled the famine to find a way to settle here.

A sign was posted on the gates that the ownerless land and houses would be sold to the public in the spring of the following year, and that those who cultivated the wasteland would not be taxed for three years, and only half for the next five years. As soon as the decree came out, more and more people came to Chang'an.

After the heavy snowfall, Mu Fu had nothing to do, and went outside to take a turn, during this time there were many people in Chang'an, but because it was winter, and it had just snowed, many people faced the dilemma of having no food and clothing. The government is in charge of the house, and the ownerless house is registered and distributed to the houseless to live in, but the rice, food, clothing and quilts are not helped.

After all, the emperor of San Lang is currently very "poor"! Although he has rightfully ascended the throne, the treasury is basically nothing, and there is not much silver money brought out from the private treasury of the Jiangning City Palace, and some things are also useless. The taxes from all over the country have not come up, and the current situation is that they can't collect much, and the emperor of San Lang is really hard, and he can't wait to post money to go in.

Mu Fushu walked down the street and thought about what to do. Recently, Saburo has been busy with farming, and the first priority is to feed the people, and the next thing is to dress warmly, and industrial development or something will be behind.

Gradually, Mu Fushu's brows furrowed. Outside the city she saw begging children and old people, who had gone out to look for work, and the ragged children were held in their arms by the equally disheveled old men, and shrunk under the eaves of the shops along the street. The kind-hearted ones won't drive them away, but no one wants to meddle with food and clothing.

Mu Fushu is not to blame the people at this time for being indifferent, it is really that the landlord's family has no surplus food!

Back at the Eldest Princess's Mansion, Mu Fushu felt that there would not be many people who were literate. Just let people go outside and bang the gong and shout. Every morning and afternoon, porridge will be given in the open space outside the Xuanwu Gate, with the fish charm (ancient ID card) issued by the government, each person can receive a cotton coat, and a family of three can receive a thick quilt. If there are more than three people, each additional person can receive an additional bed. If there is no fish charm, there are two people who hold the fish charm to reissue the fish charm, but the three people will "sit together" after that, and if there is any fraudulent collar, the three people will be questioned.

The guards over there hurried out, and Mu Fushu began to get busy in an orderly manner with his girl and a few grandmothers.

Lianye and the Lu family, who came later, have lived in the Eldest Princess's Mansion since they came to Chang'an. Now that Cui Chongyu and the eldest princess have been relieved, the family concept at this time is very important. How to say that the Lu family and the lotus leaf are the wives and daughters of their brothers, Yang Weiai is generous, and the lotus leaves and the Lu family are both calm and unobnoxious, so they can live with peace of mind.

Lotus leaves because of snow. I stayed in the house for a few days, and I came to Mu Fushu when the snow stopped today. Her embroidery is still learned from Mu Fushu, although it is not as good as Mu Fushu. But it's still okay to help embroider some corners of the dowry.

Seeing Mu Fushu's request to open the granary, Lianye came forward to help. Mu Fushu told her about the outside. Lianye was a little frightened: "Back then, A-Niang and I almost starved to death, that taste ......"

Lian Ye's face palpitated, and Mu Fushu also remembered that he was hungry when he first came, and there was no more painful memory than that......

Thinking of the past, Mu Fushu thought of Ah Zhu again. Mu Zhongjun's family stayed in Shudi, and they will come before Mu Fushu's wedding next year, and the child is much stronger now, and he will never go hungry again. The same Mu Fushu remembered the best of the Mu family again, and couldn't help but shake his head. Those distant memories are almost more blurry than in the previous life.

The movement in the house was a little louder, and even Yang Weiai, who was recuperating, was also alarmed. Mama Sixi is now helping in the Ministry of Rites, and four new girls have been brought up by her side to serve, so she sent Liuli to ask what happened.

Mu Fushu told the situation in the outer city again, and said that he wanted porridge and cotton clothes and quilts, Liuli hurriedly went, and it didn't take much effort Yang Weiai actually came in a sedan chair, wrapped in a light down robe, and his face was very ruddy. Seeing Mu Fushu, he frowned and said, "Are there many homeless people?" โ€

"Not a lot, and it's all out of town. I guess I'm feeling more back to the outside of the city. Mu Fushu knows the rules of this era and respects them. To tell the truth, she also knew that the reason why there were no beggars and homeless people in the inner city was because they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the city, and those in the outer city also came in some time ago, and the outside of the city could not enter at all, and the city gate subordinates stopped them outside the city, and only let them go to find wasteland to reclaim the wasteland by themselves.

Now that the weather is freezing cold, where can we reclaim the wasteland? Those displaced people just listened to the Yang clan re-taking charge of the Great Sui and the capital to re-establish Chang'an, and they all rushed in one breath. It's good to be tax-free, but it's not the right season. I didn't expect to starve to death when I got here!

In the open space outside the Xuanwu Gate, a pot stove has been moved and the porridge has been cooked. Mu Fushu took out the corn and sweet potatoes and put them in the pot to cook together, so that the people could eat and see the new species at the same time, and at the same time, some people explained to them what these new species were, how to plant them, and how to harvest them.

The cotton clothes and quilts on the other side also began to be distributed in an orderly manner. As Mu Fushu expected, there were not many people, only one or two hundred, and more should be in the outer city.

Yang Weiai sent the two brothers of the Zhou family to the outer city to investigate, and sure enough, the two did not look very well after they came back, saying that at least thousands of people had gathered in the outer city, and some people had already fallen ill and died.

Yang Weiai looked at Mu Fushu, and her worry was overflowing: "Auntie, is there enough food and clothing?" โ€

Mu Fushu nodded: "It's enough, don't worry, A-Niang, I'll go." โ€

Here Mu Fushu and they loaded five carts of food clothes and went out, and San Lang over there also heard about the homeless people outside the city. He lives in the palace now, and he can't discuss with his aunt if he has nothing to do, and he can't help complaining that the incident is too slow, if he and his aunt get married, they can always be in one place, and they can discuss things in case of trouble.

Out of the Xuanwu Gate. Mu Fushu met San Lang and Yang Weng.

The new emperor ascended the throne, and all kinds of waste were waiting to be revived, even if Cui Chongyu and Yang Weng were concerned about Yang Weiai, they couldn't help but do what they should do.

Cui Chongyu is now the secretary of the military department, and he went to the school camp outside the city early in the morning. And Yang Weng, holding the title of the head of the household department, was in a hurry because of the homeless people and the emptiness of the treasury, and followed San Lang to the outside of the city. I don't want to meet Mu Fushu just right.

San Lang and Mu Fushu looked at each other and smiled. Dismounted, sweetly holding hands, and walking in front. Yang Weng patted his head violently, he was really busy and fainted, how could he forget this weird lady?

Behind him, five carts were piled with food and clothing. The car did not go fast, and it was close to noon when it reached the outer city gate. The gates were open, and not much could be entered.

Mu Fushu and San Lang did not go out, but climbed the city tower first. The black underneath pressed a large number of people. Sitting on the ground against the walls or just outside the city, luckily there are bonfires burning around you. The weather after the snow is fairly clear. The temperature was about minus two or three degrees, and Mu Fushu didn't feel that they were wearing down cotton clothes, and those who were wearing several single clothes or jackets were shivering on the fire.

San Lang's face was grim, and he said in a low voice: "Auntie, look." This is our Great Sui Dynasty. People will not have enough food and clothing, and many will die of cold and starvation in the snow......"

Mu Fushu sighed: "San Lang, it's not your fault. You've just ascended the throne. Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, and you have to take your time. You see. She pointed to the cart behind her that was slowly heading out of the city: "With these, they won't die." โ€

San Lang shook his head: "If you can save a lifetime, you can't save a lifetime, do you plan to raise them yourself?" โ€

Mu Fushu shook his head: "You're still impatient." I'm here to help the urgent, not the poor. After this winter, we will teach them to grow cotton, raise livestock, spin wool, knit sweaters, and make down jackets, so that there will be no more people who will die of cold and hunger next winter. โ€

San Lang looked at Mu Fushu and smiled: "Auntie, did I say that without you, I wouldn't want to be this emperor at all, and I wouldn't be able to be this emperor?" โ€

Mu Fushu thought about it and nodded honestly: "Indeed, without me, you are still fishing in Linjia Village." โ€

San Lang laughed, he didn't feel that the eldest mother was wrong at all, nodded again and again, and said to Yang Weng behind him: "What the eldest mother said is right, if it weren't for her, our uncle and nephew would be gone!" โ€

Yang Weng also smiled. If there is no eldest mother, he and Yang Weiai may not be able to meet for the rest of their lives, and he may even be no longer there because of old injuries.

The eldest mother is the only variable that changes Da Sui.

When the five carts drove out of the city gate, the city gate guards stood straight, looking at the food and clothing with curiosity, and the lifeless people outside the city all sat up straight, and a few of them stood up and supported each other.

San Lang and Mu Fushu followed out of the city, Zhou Mugen cleared his throat and said loudly: "The emperor is compassionate, open the warehouse to release grain, distribute clothes and quilts, everyone line up according to the family, and each household sends one person to receive it with the fish charm." The one without the fish symbol is on the other side. Zhou Mugen pointed to another vacant lot.

The use of the fish charm in this era is the same as the modern ID card, you have to bring it when you go out, if you don't have it, you are a homeless, and the homeless person will be exiled if you hit the board or the worst, so if it is not necessary, the fish charm will not be lost lightly.

After a commotion, two piles of people stood up, and there were only a hundred or so people without fish charms. The people knelt on the ground with a depressed expression, and some women wept and cried for mercy, to the effect that the fish charm had been lost in the flight, and there were also people in the pile of fish charms who helped them to hold on to their grievances.

Mu Fushu was a little headache by the scene in front of him, waved his hand, and said loudly: "Don't make noise!" If you know that there is no fish talisman in your hand, you can draw a pledge guarantee from Lord Zhou and receive a new fish talisman! โ€

Everyone was quiet. San Lang stood behind her and chuckled: "It's scary for the eldest lady to splash." โ€

Mu Fu glanced at him: "I'm afraid!" โ€

San Lang couldn't suppress his laughter: "I'm afraid, I'm really afraid." โ€

The two talked and laughed, and their subordinates kept helping to get clothes, quilts and food. This grain distribution is not like soup kitchen, that is, the grain is distributed according to the capitation, and they are allowed to take it back and cook it themselves. It is also a problem for these people to have no fixed place to live, and Mu Fushu plans to borrow an ownerless house outside the city for them, and then work for relief, which is better than doing nothing all day waiting for her to take food to support them.

Seeing that San Lang and Mu Fushu personally distributed food and clothing quilts, Zhou Shuigen, who had few tendons, said: "The emperor and the county lord rest, just leave these to so-and-so!" โ€

As soon as the words fell, the city gate subordinates and the guards guarding the city who were helping around heard it, and after looking at each other, they couldn't help kneeling down and kowtowing to San Lang and Mu Fushu, long live the mountain.

These are terrible, those people who are receiving food and clothes from the hands of the two are stunned, crying and shouting excitedly after kneeling down with their hands and feet, San Lang and Mu Fushu can't dissuade them, and the wolf bรจi turns back to the inner city, and you can still hear the shouts of the mountains outside......
