Chapter 214: Chengdu City Disaster Relief Victims
The tragic situation of the victims along the way deeply pierced Liu Fei'er's heart, but this time she really couldn't do anything, because it was difficult to guarantee even her own food and clothing!
"Brother Fan, I'm so homesick!"
"Fei'er, hold on, it's good to get to Chengdu." Geng Xiaofan pulled Liu Fei'er to sit down and rest on the side of the road.
After taking a sip of water, Geng Xiaofan took out the last piece of scone from his arms, which he prepared at the Pixian Post Station.
Liu Fei'er had never walked such a long way, she felt very tired, she didn't have any appetite, she broke off a small piece and chewed weakly.
Her actions immediately attracted the attention of the victims on the road, and the two children couldn't help it and ran to her to look at her.
Liu Fei'er hesitated, the scone in her husband's hand should be their last ration.
Geng Xiaofan already understood what Fei'er meant, and stuffed the scones into her hands, "At most, one day will be in Chengdu, but we haven't starved to death for five days, hehe!" ”
Liu Fei'er sneered and laughed, and without hesitation, she tore the scone in half and handed it to the two children.
The two children were so overjoyed that they grabbed it, turned around and ran!
Liu Fei'er smiled bitterly, I hope this mouthful of food can save a life.
The two children did not run far, but they turned and ran back, and without speaking, they fell to their knees, and kowtowed to the two of them three times before they got up and left again.
"Hey! It's a pity that such a sensible child starved to death! Geng Xiaofan sighed.
"When I go home this time, whoever has leftovers and wastes food, I have to starve him for three days!" Liu Fei'er suffered this time and was deeply touched.
"Fei'er, you can't keep forcing people to eat leftovers, eating a bad stomach is a bigger waste!" Geng Xiaofan looked at Fei'er's cute expression and felt funny.
"When we go home, we raise more chickens and ducks, try not to have leftovers, and feed the chickens and ducks when they have leftovers, so that they will not be wasted."
"Great! Then we can eat called flower chicken every day! Liu Fei'er's eyes lit up.
"Fei'er, it's delicious. No matter how delicious it is, it won't taste good when you eat it every day. Let you eat chicken every day, or it will annoy you to death in three days! Ha ha! ”
"Don't bother, I'm not annoyed, give me two chickens now, I can eat them!"
"Good! Anyway, you have a bow, and if you're lucky, we'll burn the flower chicken. ”
The two of them had rested enough, got up and continued on their way.
finally came to Chengdu, the situation was much better, Liu Feier sold a piece of jade pendant, and the two had a full meal.
In the county office, the two were lucky to meet Yangxiong again, and learned that Princess Yang'a and her party had returned to Chang'an a few days ago.
"Brother Ziyun, the princess left you here, but you have to work hard for your test!" Geng Xiaofan quickly understood what Yang A meant, and he also had the heart to help him.
"Gongzi Geng, I also have enough spare energy! Yan Taishou was reluctant to open a warehouse for relief, and when the food from the imperial court arrived, he didn't know how many people would starve to death! "Yang Xiong is also very tired these days.
"What kind of person is this Yan Taishou? Why didn't he put grain? ”
Speaking of which, he also has difficulties. Last year, there was a severe drought in Shuzhong, and the government's grain stock was already not much. Moreover, the disaster is mainly in Pixian and Jiangyuan, and the disaster in Chengdu is not serious, and he is afraid of losing the other. In addition, his most beloved youngest daughter was suddenly sick and bedridden recently, and he had no intention of caring about the victims. ”
"The government does not have enough food, what about the rich in the city? At least you can get some food stocked! ”
"Can those people be counted on? At this time, it is already good not to hoard and raise prices. Yang Xiong's face was disappointed, the main "work" he did these days was to mobilize wealthy merchants in Chengdu to donate porridge and grain, but with little success.
Geng Xiaofan thought for a while, "This disaster is not serious, Shu County can completely save itself, but it is too law-abiding." You introduced me to him, and so did we."
After listening to Geng Xiaofan's method, Yangxiong's mouth couldn't close, "Is this feasible?" ”
"Just try it!" Geng Xiaofan is full of confidence.
His solution is to stimulate consumption! Since those wealthy businessmen are unwilling to take the initiative to donate food for disaster relief, then stimulate their consumption!
Seeing Yan Zhang, Yang Xiong introduced Geng Xiaofan as an old immortal Taoist friend of Zhuang Lao, and deliberately blew him to the gods.
Geng Xiaofan pretended to be a ghost with a shelf, and carefully evaluated Yan Zhang's mansion and pointed at it.
"There's something wrong with this mansion of Lord Taishou! Falling into disrepair not only damages the prestige of adults, but also detrimental to the future of adults, especially their families. Geng Xiaofan started his own plan, talking nonsense.
"Childe is really a fairy! The little girl was sick a few days ago, and she couldn't seek medical treatment in many ways, and the lower officials were worried! Yan Zhang couldn't help but admire Geng Xiaofan when he heard Geng Xiaofan say that it was not good for his family.
"Can you wait for the next look?" Geng Xiaofan's mind moved, if he could help Taishou cure his daughter's illness, it would be even more helpful to his plan.
"I can't ask for it, please, please!"
Geng Xiaofan was still apprehensive, but he looked at the four or five-year-old girl and put his mind at ease.
The little girl had a very high body temperature, a rash on her forehead, arms, etc., as well as vomiting and convulsions. This is obviously smallpox!
"It seems that Yan Taishou has offended the plague god!" After reading it, Geng Xiaofan hurriedly took everyone out.
He has been planted with "cowpox" since he was a child, and he will never be infected, but Fei'er is not easy to say, in case of infection, it is not fun. Especially Fei'er, if she becomes a pockmarked face again
"Ask Childe for help!" Yan Zhang saw that Geng Xiaofan was confident, and hurriedly asked for help.
"A few days ago, Mr. Junping talked about the recent unfavorable weather, and there will be a plague god coming. When I came down from the mountain, he had already set up an altar in retreat and practiced the Dharma in order to get rid of it. Taishou-sama also has to make some preparations. ”
"Ask the son to do a way to get rid of the plague god!"
"I don't! However, I can give you some pointers. ”
Yan Zhang looked at it with a blank eye, Geng Xiaofan smiled slightly, "Adults can renovate the back house and the cross-courtyard, and the front gate of the yaqian should also be rebuilt, and then set up a stage to set up a drama In short, the more lively the better, the greater the momentum, the more afraid the plague god!" ”
"How much does this cost?"
"Haha! It's too much to worry about. It might cost a lot in normal times, but this is a godsend! Geng Xiaofan smiled slightly.
"That's right! Now most of the victims in Pixian County have fled to this place, but if they are given a bite to eat, they dare to serve you without giving up? Yang Xiong discussed with Geng Xiaofan in advance and hurriedly stepped forward.
"Good! Just bother Yang Gongzi. It's just that the little girl's "Yan Zhang can't care about anything else at this time, and she is focused on her daughter.
"Don't worry, Lord Taishou, I'm here." Geng Xiaofan's "conspiracy" succeeded, and he smiled at Yangxiong.
"Husband, I'll help you!" Liu Fei'er was also eager to try.
Geng Xiaofan took out a silk scarf from his arms, folded it into a "mask", and put it on for Fei'er with his own hands, "It's good to have me here, you go and help Ziyun Gongzi." ”
"Oh, so what is this for?" Liu Feier pulled the "mask" on her mouth.
"You're so beautiful, I'm not at ease. Haha, go, go! Geng Xiaofan waved his hand and let Yangxiong and the others leave.
