It was another few days of travel to catch up, and along the way, Lu Zhen and they still met several groups of homeless people who fled to other places to make a living, most of them were thirty or fifty, and as few as ten people, dragging their families and families, bringing the old and the young, it was really sad to watch.

And in this regard, Lu Zhen was also a little powerless at this time, so he could only do his best to distribute some food to them. It's just that in this way, the grain worth 30,000 taels of silver that he purchased in the capital is directly reduced by two or three percent, and Han Wutong, who is in charge of the general ledger, is a little scratching his head, and if it goes on like this, he won't be able to stay in Xingze County for too long.

Seeing that his master said so, Han Wutong didn't want to mutter anything anymore. So when Lu Zhen wanted to distribute food again, he no longer dissuaded him, and he also earned a lot of gratitude and reputation from the victims.

After encountering many victims along the way, Lu Zhen had already made a judgment about the local situation, but the situation in front of him was still greatly beyond his expectations. Seeing this, he sighed again, but judging from the scale of the thousands of victims gathered outside the city, it was obvious that he could no longer distribute food as casually as he did on the road, otherwise he was afraid that it would attract looting, which was not what he wanted to see.

After seeing so many truckloads of food coming from afar, the eyes of the victims who were half-dead and waiting for the city suddenly flashed with longing and anticipation, and some of them struggled to get up, approached the convoy, and when they got closer, they knelt down and pleaded: "Ladies and gentlemen, have mercy on us, we haven't eaten for five days...... Just stutter it......"

"Huh? Why is that? Yin Xiang asked with some puzzlement, but at the same time, he had already waved his hand to signal his subordinates not to rush to do things. Along the way, he was quite convinced of Lu Jin, and since the other party said so, he naturally had a reason.

After explaining, Lu Zhen stood up again and shouted to the victims who came around: "Fellow villagers, the inferior ones brought food to Xingze precisely to understand your food shortage problem. However, we are just ordinary people, and we can't give food at will, and we have to wait until we enter the city and discuss with the government before deciding on the method of distributing relief food. I hope you can wait for a while, and you will be able to eat food by tomorrow at the latest. As he spoke, he made a gesture in a group.

After encouraging the victims around him for a few words, he saw the man with his teeth and claws, and viciously pounced on several grain trucks. As for the other victims, most of them were still hesitating, and only a few of them gritted their teeth and actually pounced on them, trying to seize the food in the car.

However, the subordinates who came here with Lu Zhen are all one of the best in the Jinyi Guard, how can they be intimidated by the dozen or twenty victims in front of them? Seeing each other approaching, the two of them greeted each other, probed and grabbed with both hands, and with a wave, several troublemakers in front of them were thrown out directly. And the two of them were like tigers entering the flock, punching and kicking, and in just a few clicks, they let go of a group of people.

On the other side, after Yin Xiang saw this scene, there was a little more thoughtful expression in his eyes, and he glanced at Lu Zhen a few times attentively, he didn't expect that the other party actually had such a good hand hidden by his side.

Yin Xiang hurriedly hugged his fist at him: "I have seen Lord Ding in the next Yin Xiang, and Lord Lao Fu has come to greet him." ”

"This Zheng Lu Zheng Boss is also a kind-hearted person, and like Zaixia, he also transported grain to your county." Yin Xiang hurriedly came forward to introduce on his behalf.

Fortunately, this Ding Dianshi's temper is very good, and he was not annoyed by what he said, but said with a wry smile: "We can't help it, now that there are many disaster victims living in the city, there is really no place to make room, but let Your Excellency laugh." As he spoke, he patted his head again: "Look at me, how can you let two kind-hearted people stay outside the city all the time, hurry up and follow me into the city to talk about other things." ”

Lu Zhen thought that Ding Le's statement that the city had been filled with victims was just a pretext, but it wasn't until he entered the city and saw a lot of disaster victims sitting along the street who were also ragged and blind-eyed, that he realized that what the other party said was the truth. This surprised him, and he couldn't help but ask, "Lord Ding, why is this also the situation in this city?" ”

"Is that so? That...... Suddenly, there are so many more victims, can the food in the county be supplied? Yin Xiang also asked with concern.

"I hope so." Lu Jin replied casually. As far as he understands the efficiency of the Ming Dynasty today, the other party really doesn't know when it will be too soon. Moreover, the situation in Yingze County is also confusing now, who knows who will swallow the food when it is delivered.

And in this way, it also has a benefit, when Lu Zhen and the others want to discuss with local officials how to arrange disaster relief matters, it is also much more convenient.
