"Lao Zhang, have you heard, the county government has started to give porridge at the gate."

"I've heard that not only the soup kitchen, but also cotton clothes and tents."

"Impossible, how did those dog officers become so kind?"

"yes, they left us to fend for ourselves."

"Brothers, don't be stunned, hurry up and eat, I've just eaten enough."

"Ergouzi, you didn't lie to anyone, why did the yamen give porridge in a good manner?"

"It was the colt and the princess who ordered the alms, and our governor has been replaced?"

"I also heard that the governor has changed, and the new governor of our territory is a princess."

"What? Actually, the new governor is a colt, and your news is not right. ”

"It doesn't matter who it is, whoever is the governor of the two of them is the same, go, get the food."

The victims didn't know what was going on at first. Later, when I heard that this was ordered by the new governor of the territory, after hearing this, the victims kowtowed to thank the governor of the territory for saving their lives.

"Don't rush, take your time, there's something for everyone."

"Name, family, age, okay, go get the cotton clothes."

"This is the tent for everyone to rest, and there is medicine in it to take."

"Note that only 10 people can live in each tent, and priority will be given to women and children."

……

Ling Xia and Xia Ning'er were secretly inspecting the disaster area at this time, and I have to say that the efficiency of those governors was still very high, and they set up porridge and rice shops and camp tents overnight, and saw that the victims were queuing up to receive cotton clothes, Ling Xia nodded secretly.

After muttering for a while, Ling Xia grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground and wiped it on his face, then he took off his coat, picked up a torn dress from the street, and draped it on his body.

When it was his turn, an official threw a bowl to Ling Xia, took a spoon and filled a bowl of gruel from the pot, gave him a nest head, and then impatiently shouted to the back: "Next." ”

Ling Xia took the nest head and walked inside, this is, a scribe with a disgusted face took a pen to register: "Name, age, address, come, sign a name here, sign a post, you can go inside to receive cotton clothes and herbs." ”

According to the man's instructions, Ling Xia picked up the pen and prepared to sign on a registration book, he just wrote his name, he saw something strange, it turned out that the registration book actually wrote like this: "Ling Xia, male, twenty-three years old, from Gelingzhai, received two bowls of rice porridge, four nests, a cotton coat, two packs of herbs, and cost about three copper coins." ”

Seeing this, Ling Xia couldn't help frowning and asked, "I obviously only received a bowl of gruel and a nest head, and I haven't received my clothes yet, and I'm in good health, so I don't need herbs at all, why do you want me to sign on this?" I don't sign. ”

"Don't sign? Hehe------ get out if you don't sign. At this time, a man who looked like an official walked over, and when he heard Ling Xia's words, this person sneered: "It's really shameless."

Or the county magistrate is right, to you Diao people are hungry, when there was no food and no cotton clothes before, you didn't shout, now you are given food and clothes, you have a long face, come, stop sending porridge. ”

After reprimanding Ling Xia, the official walked up to the victims, pointed at Ling Xia and shouted: "Just because this person ignores current affairs and angers the official, the official has decided to temporarily close the soup kitchen and the resettlement site for the disaster victims, and then start again when the official is in a good mood." ”

Hearing that the rice porridge shop and the rescue point were closed due to Ling Xia's reasons, the victims suddenly fried the pot, and accused Ling Xia of being full of food, and some of the victims even raised stones to throw Ling Xia, looking at this scene, the official showed a sneer on his face.

"Presumptuous, this is the court horse, and the future governor of Ziyan Territory, you dare to hurt the horse master, I think you are tired of it." At this time, Situ Chenfeng led people to rush in, and after revealing their identities, they formed a circle to protect Ling Xia in the middle.

"What, colt? Governor? ”

After learning of Ling Xia's identity, the official and the little officials behind him were all stunned, and they were stunned one by one, and those victims who insulted Ling Xia and threw Ling Xia at all times were so frightened that they kowtowed and knelt.

"Tell me, what do you mean by registering like that? Why do you need to misrepresent the amount of supplies distributed? Ling Xia took off his coat, wiped the dirt off his face, picked up the ledger on the table, and asked the officials with a calm face.

"Qi Yu donkey, these are all arranged ----- ----- the county magistrate, who ordered us to double the number of materials received when registering the victims, saying that these are the meaning of the Futai Yamen, and the surrounding county magistrates are doing so.

The reason why it is necessary to register in this way is to go to the top to collect funds, and the county government has distributed more materials to the disaster victims, and when the county government goes to the top to report the accounts in the future, they can ask for more materials, and one disaster victim can falsely report two copper coins, and 10,000 disaster victims can receive an additional 20,000 copper coins. ”

The official's words happened to be heard by Xia Ning'er, and he snorted angrily: "It's all at this juncture, there are still people who are worried about this ill-gotten wealth and want to take the opportunity to earn money from the victims, it's really unreasonable." ”

"It seems that there is a lot of knowledge here." After whispering, Ling Xia instructed Situ Chenfeng: "Later, you will personally go to the prison cells of various yamen, ------ those economic criminals----- and bring out all those criminals who are guilty of corruption and false accounting."

The general ledger details of the governor's yamen and the political envoys are about to be delivered, and then you will let out the wind and say that the princess has selected those prisoners who are proficient in accounting to audit the accounts, and if anyone dares to falsify the accounts, once they are found out, they will be dismissed, their homes will be raided, and they will be questioned. ”

After Situ Cheng took the order to leave, Ling Xia called the officials and gave a faint order, asking the officials to continue to give porridge to relieve the victims, as for the account matter, he would directly report to the governor, after speaking, Ling Xia turned around and left, and did not mean to settle accounts with those few disaster victims.

Seeing this scene, the victims who had insulted and thrown Ling Xia at all times before lowered their heads in shame.

While inspecting the disaster-stricken provinces, Ling Xia and his team encountered many situations, some places falsely reported the number of materials, some places were shoddy, some places sold themselves, and some deliberately spent high prices to buy grain and cotton clothes.

At the same time as discovering these problems, the merchants' hoarding, monopolizing the market, inflating prices, forcing buyers to sell, and bullying and dominating the market were also found out by Ling Xia and Xia Ning'er.

Hearing this, Ling Xia and Xia Ning'er glanced at each other, and then they went home, and when they left, Ling Xia smiled and said, "Let's go, go back to the Governor's Mansion and meet those guests who are late." ”
