Chapter Ninety-One: Mobilizing the People

As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot, and if nothing happens this night, then tomorrow the food will definitely arrive.

Of course, Liu Xian also thought that the county commander Yang Jie and they might not deliver all the grain to Wenshen at one time. The best thing is to wait for the county to order Yang Jie and them to deliver 500,000 catties of grain to Wenshen at one time, and then Liu Xian will quietly transfer the grain out of Yangshi County, and then start the rescue and relief work for the people of Yangshi County.

But I really can't wait for this thing.

Because it is true that people in Yangshi County are starving to death every day.

Liu Xian also learned about the situation from Wen Shen's mouth.

It doesn't matter if Liu Xian hasn't come to Yangshi County yet, since he has already arrived and has a plan, then the relief for the people of Yangshi County one day earlier can make them die less.

By this hour, everyone who was okay was probably asleep. If it weren't for the fact that there were distinguished guests like Liu Xian in the inn, he was worried about what Liu Xian would need, so the owner of the inn did not rest, but his wife had already slept.

"Liu Gongzi, I don't know what else to tell the old man to come after such a night?" The boss saw Liu Xian and hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute.

"Boss, I haven't asked your surname yet." Liu Xian raised his hand to signal the boss not to be polite, and then asked with a smile.

"Yu Gongzi, free of money, your name is wide."

"Qian Kuan? Wide money road? Is that what it means? I've heard that people with the surname Qian are rich people. Liu Xian casually said: "Boss Qian, it's a pity, these days, the war is in chaos, the business is not easy to do, your inn, if it goes on like this, no matter how many doors you have, but it is estimated that you don't need to open it, if you don't open it, you won't have business, and if you don't have business, you won't have money, right?" ”

"But no, now the old man doesn't have any money, but the food is almost gone. Fortunately, the old man opened an inn, and there was a little food hidden somewhat, but when the yellow turban thief came, he didn't find it, so he still had a bite to eat and survived until now. As soon as Qian Kuan heard Liu Xian say this, he became energetic, and said with a little resentment: "The world was originally good, but suddenly it became like this." A pound of rice costs more than 100 yuan, which still makes people live? Don't hide it from Liu Gongzi, in a few days, my wife and I will have nothing to eat or drink, so we will starve to death in this inn, and we will not live! ”

Liu Xian asked Boss Qian to sit down and said to him: "Boss Qian, don't be discouraged, you can't die." I came to you this time to learn something about Yang's County. Then, I want to ask Boss Qian for your help. ”

"Liu Gongzi is polite, what are you not invited? Qian Mou is an old bone, and now he has reached the point of exhaustion, and there is nothing to say, what do you want me to do, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help. Boss Qian patted his chest, and his old face was a little flattering, obviously flattering Liu Xian.

It turned out that Liu Xian stayed at his inn and was the first guest in recent months, and not only gave him money, but also food, which made him grateful. And on this day, he also asked Liu Xue, Liang Cheng, and Liang Mo a lot of questions, so that he knew the current situation in Liulin Village.

Liulin Village is good, there is this young master of the Liu Mansion, Liu Xian, who helps those villagers, so that so many villagers don't have to worry about the food situation. But he is different in this Yang County, if he has no money and no food, he can only wait to die. In addition, he and his wife are very old, and they dare not flee from Yang's County to go elsewhere, because they are afraid that they will be killed by thieves when they go out.

After listening to the situation in Liulin Village, he couldn't help but have a yearning for Liulin Village, and he thought in his heart that this might be a way out.

He really wanted to take refuge in Liulin Village and take refuge in Liu Xian, the young master of the Liu Mansion. Only by taking refuge in Liu Xian and letting him go to Liulin Village, he can at least have a bite to eat, and let him do anything.

Qian Kuan is an innkeeper, although he is old, but he is old and fine, no matter what he has seen, he has more than ordinary people, especially his brain is much more flexible.

Liu Xian saw that he was so good, so he said to him directly: "Don't hide it from the boss of the money, I, Liu Xian, came to Yangshi County, and when I saw the miserable situation of the people in Yangshi County, I couldn't bear it. Therefore, it was decided to start giving soup kitchens to the people of Yangshi County. However, Yangshi County is not big, but it is not small, and there are more than 10,000 people, and I am afraid that there will be a shortage of manpower at that time. So, I would like to ask you, do you know some people you can trust, and if so, can you ask them to come and do something, I want to ask them to help with things. ”

"Yes! It's right for you to ask me for old money in this matter. When we open an inn, we not only have to welcome guests from all over the world with a smile, but also make good friends with our neighbors. I don't dare to say that my old money is far away, but on this main street in Yangshi County, which family and which household I don't know and are not familiar with? It's a pity that they fled to death, it turned out that there were hundreds of families in our area, and there were tens of thousands of people, and now, it would be good to have one or two thousand people. ”

As soon as Qian Kuan heard that Liu Xian was going to give soup and food, he suddenly became a little excited, and after finishing speaking, he remembered that he bowed to Liu Xian: "Liu Gongzi is really benevolent, young, but he cares about us and other people, this is really a blessing for my people, thank you Gongzi!" ”

"One or two thousand?" Liu Xian was overjoyed when he heard this, ignored Qian Kuan's compliment, and thought in his heart that if he could mobilize these two thousand people, then the situation would be completely different.

"Well, there should be one or two thousand more by now." Qian Kuan affirmed.

"Okay, I wonder how many of them you can know? If you can, you can help me call some young or middle-aged women overnight. ”

"I know a lot, but I don't think there are many young people, but now I call them overnight? It's night, and I'm afraid it's not appropriate to impose a curfew. ”

"Curfew?" Liu Xian forgot that in this ancient era, there was indeed a curfew in extraordinary times.

"In this case, then let's go and invite it quietly, you don't need to invite too many at once, but it should be okay to invite dozens of them, right? You don't need to call the whole block, you just need to have it attached to your inn. ”

"In that case...... It should be no problem! Then the old decay will go. Qian Kuan was a little anxious and left.

"Wait, when you tell them, you won't tell you what you do, and you don't need to talk about soup kitchens now. I'll have a proclamation tomorrow when we're ready. ”

"The old man knows!"

Qian Kuan walked to the door, paused in response, and walked out.

It didn't take long for Qian Kuan to really bring back a dozen or so people.

After he introduced these dozen men and women, almost all of them with vegetable-looking faces, to Liu Xian, he left in a hurry.

Liu Xian asked them to wait first, and then talk about things together when they were almost there.
