All the officials didn't dare to look at Lord He's expression, and mechanically stepped forward to grab the locust and stuffed it into their mouths.

The room was silent, but when they looked at each other, it didn't seem to be very delicious!

The officials were relieved.

Zhao Yunrang sneered: "Ladies and gentlemen, you don't think, just eat that plate, it's okay, taste it one plate at a time!" ”

With this plate at the bottom, the next few plates have also been eaten.

The taste is also acceptable.

But even this plate of cold locusts has not even moved!

said that it was a cold salad, and it is estimated that Zhao Yunrang didn't even put oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

Directly a few locusts with five horses divided into corpses were thrown into the plate and served.

Can you eat it too?

This is not a cucumber, it is good to be cooked, and the raw one is tender and delicious.

Zhao Yunrang did not speak.

Lord He sighed, reached out and pinched a locust, although it was only half of its body, but its thighs were still twitching.

Lord He closed his eyes and threw them directly into his mouth.

People say that they swallow dates, but this is the first time I have seen locusts.

It is estimated that people who eat locusts raw will only have two results, one is that they can eat anything, and the other is that they can't eat anything.

The officials looked at the thighs of the locusts that were still wriggling around Lord He's mouth, closed their eyes one by one, and threw the locusts into their mouths as if they were righteous.

Lord He smoothed his chest with his hand, and reluctantly said, "Lord Qincha is still satisfied?" ”

Zhao Yunrang naturally knew what he was asking, and at this time, it was estimated that the nerves of this group of officials were tense to the limit.

As long as you say that you are not satisfied, it is almost a scene of fire.

In the end, life and death were unknown.

"I have seen the sincerity of your lords, but Your Majesty knows about this catastrophe, so we still need another kind of sincerity!"

Lord He's eyes were cold: "But I don't know what it is?" ”

"Silver!"

The officials were visibly relieved.

Silver is fine, as long as you don't want heads!

"In that case, everyone will go back and get the silver, I don't want more, keep 20% at home, and take the rest!"

The officials were stunned, eighty percent of the family property, this is inevitably too much, right?

Only Lord He, without saying a word, went out.

Eighty percent of the silver, compared to the head, is cheap!

It is indeed a catastrophe, and these officials should indeed be killed.

However, you can't kill it!

Although it is said that it is said that it is an example to kill a hundred, who will do this disaster relief thing?

At this time, it is better to make an example of a hundred than to make meritorious service by committing crimes.

There are too many victims, really too many!

Zhao Yunrang estimated that even if the relief grain sent by the imperial court was not corrupted, in addition to the loss, it would not be able to save such a big disaster.

Food naturally has a food solution!

Sometimes, silver still has a lot of use.

These officials knew how much money it would take to gag Zhao Yunrang and prevent him from reporting to the emperor.

That's what Zhao Yunrang meant, and now it makes no sense to arrest a few corrupt officials and kill them.

Now it's up to them to help the disaster.

The officials immediately followed Master He to do it.

This is fate, if this uncle suddenly gets angry, doesn't want silver, and lets everyone's heads fall to the ground, it will be troublesome.

Speaking of which, although this group of officials has some problems, their execution is still leveraged.

In fact, corruption has little to do with personal ability!

Uh, or maybe there's a little bit, incapable people, you just let him be corrupt, and he can't be corrupt much!

The intricate network of relationships formed over a long period of time is itself a kind of strong execution.

All the official positions are open.

All the larger villages and towns have set up food distribution points.

Ensure that the villagers within a radius of 20 miles can rush here to receive food or food.

But the problem soon arose, because there was not enough food.

It is obviously unrealistic for all the people to come to eat these relief foods, and some people still have the attitude of being well fed.

Lord He came with a sad face.

"What to do? The relief food issued by the imperial court has been distributed, and the silver from the warehouse has also been taken out and bought everywhere, but the scale of this drought is so great that it is impossible to buy grain! ”

Zhao Yunrang frowned, what Lord He said is also the truth, it is true.

And in the process of long-distance transportation, people eat horses to feed, which will also be a great consumption.

It's still good that there are high-speed trains and airplanes.

But now, it is estimated that those who go out to buy grain have not yet seen it!

Since it can't be open source, I'm afraid I can only throttle it first.

But how can there be so many victims?

"All the people out there are disaster victims?"

Lord He shook his head, obviously not.

At least not these officials.

Officials are naturally not, and there are rich businessmen who are not.

A considerable number of people, even in times of disaster, have surplus food at home and can afford to eat.

This is not a modern time, and the only food for the month is stored at home.

Which large family is not full of grain and stored for more than three years?

Zhao Yunrang suddenly slapped his thigh, and his mother made a mistake.

This does not take into account such a situation.

On the streets of Luzhou, a grain store is giving porridge.

This porridge was originally required to be thick, and the chopsticks were not poured.

But not now, because there is no rice.

So the porridge is very thin.

That's it, the queue waiting for the soup kitchen is also long.

If it weren't for the officers and soldiers to maintain it, I'm afraid it would have caused a riot long ago.

When Zhao Yunrang came, he saw a short and fat person in the team, wearing a homely clothes, holding a big bowl and sticking his head out in the team.

In the middle of the long line, there were naturally yellow-faced and thin-skinned victims, and there were also many people who looked like this Humpty Dumpty. One of them was shouting, "Hurry, hurry, I won't have it when it's my turn." ”

Zhao Yunrang walked to the side of the cauldron that was stirring, bent down and grabbed a handful of gravel, and threw it directly into the cauldron.

The official in charge of the soup kitchen was stunned for a moment, not knowing what the adult was going to do.

The Humpty Dumpty immediately frowned and shouted, "How can we eat if you do this?" ”

Zhao Yunrang sneered: "If you don't eat it, naturally someone will eat it!" ”

"Folks, due to carelessness in this porridge, there is some sand, I hope you will forgive me, but I can still fill my stomach!"

Everyone looked sideways, isn't that the sand you just threw in?

However, the real victims immediately understood Zhao Yunrang's good intentions.

Immediately swarmed and squeezed on, holding up the broken bowl in his hand.

When the porridge was put into the bowl, he immediately ate it in a big gulp.

Humpty Dumpty hesitated for a moment, then turned around and walked away!

Zhao Yunrang watched him walk away with cold eyes: "Come on, keep an eye on these people who don't eat porridge mixed with sand, arrest them all, and let the family take food to ransom people!" ”

Lord He suddenly felt his heart pounding: "This—this is not in accordance with the law, is it?" ”

"Testimonies? Is Lord He ready to ** with me? ”

Uh, what else is there to say!

"Hurry up and get someone!"

As long as he doesn't arrest himself, it doesn't matter who he catches!

Sure enough, these people who come to be greedy for small and cheap are basically big families with surplus food at home.

I don't know if it's because I'm afraid that others will know that I have food in my house and rob it, or if it's just because of pure greed.

Even, he also caught two black-hearted businessmen who were really hoarding Juqi.

Zhao Yunrang was unceremonious, went directly to the flail, and stood on the cross street to show the public.

In less than an hour, the man passed out.

Wake up with cold water and continue!

The people in the family took the money to support all kinds of relationships, and there was no one who dared to respond.

In the end, Zhao Yunrang spoke, as long as there is a trusting relationship, just agree.

Silver, grain!

All the officials were immediately happy, they were all local officials for many years, and those who could get their heads were basically three relatives and six reasons.

To be able to save a life under the minister of the Qin Mission, this is a great face and favor!

Even if you can't see the benefits in front of you, when the catastrophe is over, this matter will not be over!

In this way, I can barely get some food.

But the base of the victims was too large, and the grain that seemed to be piled up went down for more than half of it in two days, and after another two days, the treasury was cleaner than the face!

No way, three meals a day has been changed to two, or even one!

However, it is still not enough!

Zhao Yunrang had no choice but to come up with the ultimate move, collect those wheat bran and rice bran, mix them with rice, and give them to the victims.

Gradually, however, rumors spread that the new minister had filled his own pockets and embezzled the money for disaster relief!
