Chapter 119: Opening the Warehouse and Releasing Grain (1)
"Killed?" Xian Cheng was a little flustered, "Why do you want to kill it?" ”
Zong Fu smiled, "What do you think, if this Qiantang is our world in the end, what do you want him to do?" Besides, it's a hidden scourge, and as long as he's there, your head will always be pinned to your belt. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"You don't have to worry about this matter, from today onwards, I will manage the affairs of the county government," Zong Fu took a deep breath and patted his somewhat bloated belly, "I've been sick for too long, and I should be cured." ”
turned around and patted the county Cheng, "You don't want to continue to contact Xu Xian, you are full of flaws, I am afraid he has already begun to suspect it." ”
The news that Zong Fu was cured spread quickly, and Xu Xian received a message from Zong Fu as soon as possible, and Zong Fu asked him to meet him tomorrow night in the drunken building next to the West Lake.
Of course, Zong Fu also happily agreed to open a warehouse and release grain to these refugees, but Xu Xian noticed that between Zong Fu's words and the tone of the official document on record, it was all about saying that he did it according to his own will, and Xu Xian didn't want to pay attention to this kind of careful thinking at all.
Xu Xian, the official document to the imperial court and Jinyiwei, has also sent someone out, and it is still two different official documents.
The official document to the imperial court is naturally a little concealed some unnecessary factors, such as the ugly behavior of the county government to drive out the refugees, in the official document of Jinyiwei is naturally an honest explanation, although Xu Xian knows that the emperor can see it, but the two official documents of truth and falsehood have become the practice of Jinyiwei, which Xu Xian thinks is very good.
A group of local harmony can make those bigwigs have a great impression of a petty official like themselves, if they tear it very badly, even if it is a righteous party, it will not make a good impression, as for the big truth to Jinyiwei, that is the best way to show their loyalty, I simply admire the predecessors who invented this kind of official writing.
Early the next morning, Xu Xian got up early, and when he arrived at the warehouse of the county government, Xu Xian saw Zongfu for the first time.
is a very ordinary person, who doesn't look like a corrupt official at all, middle-aged is a little blessed, and his expression is not so kind or so blunt.
Opening a warehouse and releasing grain is a big deal for every county, Xu Xian is also wearing a very formal today, wearing a brightly colored flying fish suit on his body, standing with Zongfu who is dressed in green, Zongfu is like a eunuch, and the people who have good things also got up early in the morning to see.
To be honest, it is impossible to block the news of such a thing as opening a warehouse and releasing grain, but for the sake of refugees, the people of Qiantang have a lot of discussions, especially those poor people, begging beggars, they have been poor for so many years and have not seen the rice grains in the warehouse, why can those refugees who are not in this county easily get the help of the imperial court.
Xu Xian smiled at Zong Fu and nodded, just as he said hello, he personally took the key to the warehouse door and opened the warehouse door in front of everyone.
Jin Yiwei and the servants rushed in, carried out bags of rice, and put them on the ground, seeing that almost two hundred stones of rice were moved in and out, Xu Xian asked everyone to stop, and when they entered the warehouse, they moved less than one-fifth, this girl is really rich.
Walking out of the warehouse, Xu Xian took out the Ming Hong knife and slashed it on a bag of rice, the rice grains slowly flowed out, Xu Xian said loudly, "I know, everyone has their own opinions on this opening of the warehouse and releasing grain." ”
"I, Xu Xian, have just taken office, I have never seen much of the world, and I have not experienced hardship, but in front of those refugees, my heart softened."
"They are no different from everyone, they are all the people of the Ming Dynasty, they are all the people of His Majesty, and the "Law of the Ming Dynasty" has never said that refugees are not the people of the Ming Dynasty. So, I hope that people will be more tolerant of them......"
"But who gave us tolerance?! There are also so many people in Qiantang who can't afford to eat and look down on the sick, why don't you open a warehouse to release grain! ”
I don't know who started it, such a question resonated with everyone, Xu Xian subconsciously glanced at Zong Fu with his spare eyes, and didn't see anything from his expression, but it was obvious that he didn't want to get involved.
smiled, how could he forget this kind of thing that involves fairness?
Stretched out his hand to suppress the voices of the people, "I, Xu Xian of the hundred households in Qiantang County, solemnly announce here that the grain of these two hundred stones will be distributed in the refugee area, and any Qiantang people can go to receive it, and each family is limited to one bucket per day!" ”
"Xu Baihu?!" Zong Fu was stunned, what is this Xu Xian going to do?! "This is no joke!"
Xu Xian smiled, thinking that you would never speak, "What I said is true, come on, load the car now, everyone, you can go over and take a look, I Xu Xian speak, a spit and a nail!" ”
The people, whether they are poor or rich, want to go over and see the excitement, and everyone spreads the word of ten, ten, ten, hundred, but in a few hours, the entire Qiantang County will spread.
Zong Fu hurriedly grabbed Xu Xian, who was about to leave, "Xu Baihu, what are you doing here, they will empty Qiantang County." ”
Xu Xian contemptuously shook off Zong Fu's hand, "My lord, these people are much more disciplined than you. ”
This kind of ridicule is said to be unbearable for Zong Fu, but at this time, where can he take care of this, "Xu Xian! Do you know how many poor people there are in the whole Qiantang, and do you know how many beggars there are?! Why are they poor, it's not that they are idle, with them, even the treasury can be emptied! ”
Speaking of this, Xu Xian glanced at Zong Fu seriously, "Do you think these poor and beggars can't eat because they are idle?!" ”
"What else could it be?"
Xu Xian snorted twice, "No wonder since Lord Zongfu became the county commander, the taxes in Qiantang County have never risen," Xu Xian pointed to the people who watched the grain loading trucks and watched with relish, "There are almost no poor and beggars mentioned by adults, do you know why?" ”
"Because people who can't even afford to eat are not qualified and don't have the energy to focus on their rights other than food, clothing, shelter and transportation."
"I've done a survey, all the work in Qiantang is full, the Qinglou restaurant shops don't need manpower, and there are no large-scale workshops in Qiantang, so a lot of the remaining population can only rely on odd jobs to support their families, which is the cause of their poverty, not idleness."
"Even so, they are still idlers, idlers who can only eat relief, even if you open a warehouse and release grain, it will not help." Zong Fu took a deep breath and pointed to the granary behind him, "You must know that once there is a disaster in Qiantang and we can't take out a grain of grain, the heads of the two of us will have to be hung on the city wall. ”
