The cold winter is not far away, the warm spring has not yet arrived, this year's climate is in such a stage that is not embarrassing or embarrassing, the evil thing is that this stage has been maintained for a long time, which is also the main reason for the disaster of the four roads of Datang today.

Since ancient times, natural disasters have always been accompanied by man-made disasters, and when natural disasters arrive, man-made disasters immediately emerge, which has almost formed a historical law. There are always people who take advantage of natural disasters to incite demagoguery, all kinds of rumors and rumors are flying all over the sky, and the burden of the government is in vain.

The same is true today.

Although he had just arrived in Jinju, Li Su could fully understand Yu Tingshi's feelings, and he really had bitter words, and he wanted to cry without tears.

Food, refugees, rumors, and the completely halted farming and workshops inside and outside the city, these thorny troubles are all supported by the thorns of Jinju and a dozen officials gritting their teeth, and what is even more sad is that in the face of countless hungry and angry refugees, the death support of Jinju officials is almost ineffective.

This has nothing to do with the ability of officials, Li Su believes that Yu Tingshi is a good official, and he also believes that the lower-level officials in Jinju City are good, and he even believes that these refugees are honest people who are honest and honest in their duty when they have not encountered natural disasters, and they are optimistic, knowing their fate, cherishing blessings, and occasionally having a little ideal of life, a little longing, such as eating two steamed buns with fat meat after making a fortune, and the kind of steamed bun that flows oil down the corners of their mouths when they bite down, and so on.

They are all good people, nothing is wrong, it is God who is wrong.

…………

Food is the big problem at the moment, very tricky and very troublesome.

Yu Tingshi couldn't think of a way, Li Su was helpless for the time being, and no matter how capable he was, he faced thousands of mouths waiting to be fed. There is no way around it. The kind of person who shakes the goose feather fan and pats his head and comes up with a way to feed the people, this kind of person either opens a cheating plug-in, such as bringing a system or something, or dies relatively early, and does not live to slap God in the face.

And Li Su, although the action of shaking the goose feather fan is more handsome. But shaking to the ground, the sky is desolate, and there is no good way to solve the urgent needs of the people. He is just an ordinary person, maybe a little more knowledge and foreknowledge than others, but this ability can't help him conjure food.

In the afternoon of the same day, there was a sudden rush outside the city of Jinju, and the local government soldiers and Li Zhi's guards carried wood and stones and began to build tents on the plain outside the city.

According to Li Su's instructions, the tent carried out a strict zoning system and lived in. Meals, toileting, isolation, etc., each area is well organized and distinct.

The young and strong men among the refugees also consciously joined the construction team, watching the government soldiers and guards divide the tent area into several pieces, the refugees couldn't help but feel strange, and many refugees couldn't help but run to ask the government soldiers. But the soldiers only carry out the order, where do they know what is going on. As a result, the refugees were confused, confused and confused, and all kinds of speculations were rampant, but there was no accurate statement.

Towards evening, the tent was still only a frame. When night was approaching, the temperature was also in vain, many old people, women and children were shivering in the cold wind, and Yu Thorn Shi, who had been directing the construction outside the city, immediately ordered dozens of bonfires to be lit in the leeward hills, and thousands of refugees formed a circle around the bonfires. Snuggle up to each other for warmth.

At the same time, the official warehouse in Jinju was also slowly opened with the approval of Li Zhi and Yu Tingshi.

Bags of grain were moved out of the official warehouse, and the soldiers who had already prepared set up stoves and iron pots, poured golden old rice into the pot, filled it with a pot of water, and boiled it for half an hour on a large fire.

The people around the campfire stared at the steaming iron pot, swallowing their saliva incessantly, the hunger in their eyes and the extreme longing in one piece, and the saliva gurgled one after another.

In the eyes of everyone's extreme anticipation, a famous man unveiled the iron pot at the same time, the porridge was full of fragrance, and the crowd was happy.

Refugees with their families carry their luggage, and the most indispensable thing in the luggage is the guy who eats, so they take out the pottery bowls one by one, whether new or old or broken.

At such a time, the people still maintained a high degree of quality and moral integrity, no one fought and no one grabbed, and no one rushed up, everyone held a pottery bowl, consciously lined up, and dozens of long lines of winding and orderly were quickly discharged on the empty plain, moving forward slowly and quietly.

Li Su and Li Zhi appeared on the small hillside outside the city gate suspension bridge at some point, quietly watching dozens of teams move, Li Su showed a faint smile.

Because of the grain in the official warehouse, the people's hearts have been temporarily stabilized.

It is said to be "temporary" because the grain in the official warehouse is only enough for the people to eat for ten days, or less, as long as the news of the Jinju government's distribution of relief grain spreads, the people who hear the news will only increase, but the food in the official warehouse will only become less and less, and more and more insufficient to eat.

There is not much time left for Li Su to raise food, and it is very urgent.

The little kid Li Zhi looked very happy, belonging to the kind of heartless happiness, of course, the starting point is good, seeing that the refugees have food to eat, Li Zhi felt that he agreed to open the Jinzhou official warehouse and did a very beautiful job, his father knew that he would not blame him, but would praise him fiercely, the truth of being in a hurry, Li Zhi, who had been with his father since childhood, already understood.

"It would be great if the people could eat fragrant rice porridge every day, and this natural and man-made disaster would surely be invisible." Li Zhi sighed.

Li Su glanced at him obliquely, but did not squeak.

is still a child, there is no need to be more serious about every stupid thing he says, Li Su is very lazy, too lazy to be true.

Li Zhi is a smart little kid, and he is very good at observing words and feelings, Li Su's flashing eyes were captured by him, Li Su was too lazy to compare with him, but he was more serious with Li Su.

"Brother Zizheng, isn't what Zhi just said wrong?"

"What His Highness said is very true, and the minister praises His Highness." Li Su said absent-mindedly.

Li Zhi pursed his mouth and said, "Why is Brother Zizheng so perfunctory? ”

Li Su sighed and said: "Okay, let me reason for His Highness, first of all, drinking porridge cannot guarantee people's nutrition, and they also have to eat vegetables and meat. Has Your Highness carefully read the porridge they boiled? ”

Li Zhi shook his head ignorantly.

Li Su led Li Zhi to an iron pot, watching the white rice porridge boiling in the pot, and the people who received the rice porridge walked to the designated dining area, squatting or standing, gulping and greedily drinking the porridge, even if they were burned by the porridge that had just come out of the pot. Still can't wait to put the porridge in my mouth.

The corners of Li Zhi's eyes twitched, and his heart was filled with incomparably complicated feelings.

Li Su walked to the iron pot, asked the man for a chopstick, and then stood upright in the porridge, and the chopsticks fell down quickly, and then disappeared into the steaming rice porridge.

Li Zhi was puzzled: "Brother Zizheng, this is ......"

Li Su sighed and said slowly: "Standing on the porridge, and the one who does not fall down can be regarded as the porridge that does not treat the people and villagers badly." Now His Highness has also seen it, because there is less rice and more water, a pot of porridge is almost boiled into a thin soup, and it is poured immediately, and these things that the people drink are basically not much different from a bowl of water......"

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then became furious, and his little face quickly turned red. Gritted his teeth and said: "What a Jinzhou official dares to withhold the people's food." I'm looking for the theory of the history of the remnants! ”

Li Su grabbed him quickly, and sighed: "Your Highness, don't be impatient, Yu Tingshi's approach is right." ”

"Even you say that? Why? Li Zhi glared at him angrily.

Li Su shook his head and said, "It seems that His Royal Highness has never touched the spring water on his hands since he was a child, and I am afraid that he has never cooked food by himself." Cooking rice, cooking porridge is a particular thing, more rice and less water, what comes out of the boiled is crystal rice, soft and delicious. If there is less rice and more water, what comes out is porridge, if there is less rice and more water, of course, what comes out is a pot of things similar to clear soup, and what we see in front of us is this kind of thing...... However, the grain in the Jinju Guancang is only enough for thousands of people outside the city for ten days, and within these ten days, there may be more refugees who come to hear the news......

Sighing, Li Su smiled helplessly: "There is only so much food, every extra handful of rice is put when cooking porridge, maybe the people will have one less meal in the future, Yu Tingshi can only desperately save, and then save, to ensure that the people are not starved to death, at the same time, it is impossible to make everyone full, at most it can only be done to the extent that the people's stomachs are bottomed, Your Highness, can you say that Yu Tingshi's approach is wrong?" If it's you, what do you do? ”

Li Zhi was speechless for a long time, and finally bowed to Li Su with a red face, and said: "It's the impulse of Zhi, and Zhi apologizes to Brother Zizheng." ”

Li Su sighed: "Your Highness, don't be polite, this is a very helpless method, Yu Tingshi can't get food, since he can't open source, he has to desperately throttle, and since His Royal Highness and I have arrived in Jinzhou, seeing that Jinzhou is in such a situation, we must take responsibility when we encounter it, does Your Highness understand what I mean?" ”

Li Zhi nodded: "They are all the people of my father's emperor, and there is no reason not to save them when they die." ”

Li Su smiled: "Very good, then, let's find a way to find food next." ”

Li Zhi's eyes lit up: "Brother Zizheng has a way to get food?" The official warehouses in Jinju have been opened, where else is there food? ”

Li Su smiled confidently: "It's very simple, don't forget that we have more than 1,000 horses, all of them covered their faces and robbed rich landlords near Jinzhou, and we will definitely be able to get a lot of grain within three days." ”

Li Zhi opened his mouth wide, looking confused: "............"

Li Su sighed, and it could be seen from Li Zhi's expression that this method may be too unrestrained, and he has been cultivated by Kong Yingda and Chu Suiliang for a long time, and it is inevitable that he will not be able to pass the hurdle of morality......

"Okay, let's go another way...... Li Su changed his words at the right time, and said: "Let's borrow grain from the rich landlords near Jinzhou, borrow it in the name of the government, and calculate interest on them, this will always work, right?" ”

Li Zhi's expression suddenly became bright and sunny like melting ice and snow.

"I heard that the rich families in Jinju have run out, and the ten rooms are empty, where can we find them? Even if they find it, do they still have food to lend us? Even if there is food, what if they don't want to borrow it? "The little fart is not very old, and he has a lot of problems, and he throws all the problems out like a cannon.

Li Su simply said decisively: "If you don't borrow it, you will grab it!" Give him face back! ”

Li Zhi's expression quickly froze: "............"

"Forget it, don't rob him, we are benevolent and righteous teachers on behalf of the imperial court, and we will convince people with reason in everything, right?"

Li Zhi's expression thawed again, the spring breeze turned into rain, and the worries turned into joy.

“…… However, it is too troublesome to reason, it is better to kill them and move the grain directly, and save the process of returning the grain in the future......"

Li Zhi's expression froze again: "............"

In the chatting sound of Li Zhi constantly playing the face-changing game, one big and one small gradually drifted apart.

*****************************************************************

The rich landlords were really hard to find, and almost all of Li Zhi's guards were sent out, and they came down for two days in a row, but they did not find a single landlord, and the houses of those rich families were either burned to the ground, or they were so empty that they could not even see a dog.

Li Su has long been psychologically prepared, in the year of the catastrophe, the people of Jindi are unstable, as a rich family who is popular with everyone, of course he will not be stupid to stay at home and wait to be robbed and killed, as early as the end of the year when the wind direction is not right, some rich people have run away with their families.

Li Su is not in a hurry, the rich are also mortals, not the six babies of the gourd, they will never know the stealth method, as long as they find a rich family, some doubts can be solved.

When the guards roamed the mountains and fields, the poor and the green fell into the Yellow Spring to look for the rich like a wild Ultraman, Li Su was also busy.

He was busy interrogating prisoners.

Fang Lao Wu and Wang Zhu are good at fighting on the battlefield, but the ruler is short, the inch is long, the skills of these two prisoners are too inferior, the whole trial lasted for two days, the mouth of the man who was broken leg that day still could not be pried open, when Fang Lao Wu and Wang Zhu reported to Li Su with a shameful face, Li Su was in a very complicated mood at that time.

I really want to hang these two goods as prisoners and smoke them first, but I think everyone is so familiar after all, I'm embarrassed to start......

"Have you been tortured?" Li Su glanced at the two of them dissatisfied.

Fang Lao Wu scratched his head: "After the punishment, five or six torture tools were used, and the skin and flesh were still not recruited." ”

Li Su smiled: "I broke my leg outside the city last time, and I cried so much that my father cried and shouted a lot of tears and snot to my mother, but I didn't expect it to be a tough guy, yes, I'll meet him." ”

The two were overjoyed, and hurriedly led Li Su towards the Jinzhou official prison.

The government prison is basically empty, firstly, the world is clear and clear, the folk customs are simple, and there are not many people who really commit adultery, and secondly, the catastrophe has come, even if there were some petty thieves in the prison, Yu Tingshi also decisively let them go, and now in this year, not only the landlord's family has no surplus grain, but the government also has no surplus grain.

Li Su walked into the prison, and an unpleasant stench came to his nose, which made Li Su take three steps back, with an annoyed face: "Is this place for people?" I'm not going in! ”

Wang Zhu was stunned and said, "If you don't go in, how can you interrogate him?" ”

"If I don't go to the mountain, can't the mountain come to me?" Li Su glared at him: "Can you just take him out for trial?" ”

"Great idea!" Wang Zhu praised happily, and then his expression floated with a little sadness: "Why didn't we think of this idea?" We smoked in prison for two days and vomited three times......"

Fang Lao Wu nodded again and again, with a look of concern, as well as a look of shame and reflection on his IQ. (To be continued.) )
