Zhao Mingcheng said with a bitter face, "Cheng Shilang is right, the grain harvest in Jiangnan this year is not good, and there is not much grain in the granary, and it has been distributed to the victims a few days ago, but it is only a drop in the bucket." ”

Zhao Zhi stopped playing with the teacup in his hand, looked at Zhao Mingcheng, and asked suspiciously, "Didn't the imperial court distribute 50,000 denier of disaster relief food?" ”

"The imperial court did distribute 50,000 denier of disaster relief grain, but it was all some old rice mixed with sand and gravel, and some of the grain was even inedible, and there were actually less than 10,000 denier of disaster relief grain that could really be eaten."

When Zhao Zhi heard this, the teacup in his hand shattered violently, and the fragments of the teacup pierced Zhao Zhi's palm.

Zhao Kai was silent, today, Zhao Kai finally saw the corruption of the Northern Song Dynasty, and actually used old rice mixed with sand and gravel as disaster relief grain.

Qin Hui seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and his expression was still flat, "It seems that we can only find a way to solve the problem of eating for the victims by ourselves." ”

Zhao Mingcheng saw that Zhao Zhi's palm was bleeding, and quickly called a subordinate to bandage Zhao Zhi, and then said, "In fact, the key is to lift the blockade in Jiangnan and let other states and counties accept the victims together. ”

Qin Hui disagreed, shook his head and said, "If you want to lift the blockade of Jiangnan, it is estimated that it is impossible in a short time, if it is really so easy to get officials from all over the surrounding areas to lift the blockade of Jiangnan, there will not be so many officials who control the floods in Jiangnan." ”

Zhao Mingcheng thought about it for a while, and said in embarrassment, "What Cheng Shilang said is right, even if King Yun orders those officials to lift the blockade of Jiangnan, those unscrupulous officials will only delay again and again until King Yun is dragged away." ”

Zhao Kai rubbed his hair, frowned and said, "Do it with me, sooner or later you will regret it, I will find a way to solve the problem of food, let's first improve the living conditions of the refugees, I saw a lot of victims on the streets, the streets are stinking, and there are many dead bodies lying on the streets. ”

Zhao Mingcheng said with some embarrassment: "King Yun, the officials of the county government have been sent to deal with the floods, and there is really no extra manpower to manage the problem of the victims." ”

This time, Zhao Kai's head was big, and he had the urge to smash the table.

Qin Hui pondered for a while, and said, "When I was in Tokyo, I read some files on the floods in Jiangnan in the past few years, and the floods in Jiangnan were mostly caused by heavy rains for several days, and the local officials failed to dredge the river in time. ”

Zhao Mingcheng was a little hesitant, if some people were really transferred back, Zhao Mingcheng was afraid that the flood would spread here if he didn't get the timely dredging, and he would really regret it at that time.

Zhao Kai saw that Zhao Mingcheng was hesitant, and said in a somewhat anxious tone, "Just do what the undertaker said, draw back half of the number of people, build simple sheds in the suburbs and other places for the victims to live, and comprehensively clean up the sanitation problems in the city. ”

When Zhao Mingcheng heard this, he asked with some doubts, "King Yun, isn't it that the lower officials are mouthy, but this is disinfected with vinegar?" Is it feasible? ”

Zhao Kai glared at Zhao Mingcheng, "What do I say, how do you do it, where did you get so many questions." ”

Zhao Kai's attitude made Zhao Zhi and Qin Hui a little surprised, although they didn't get along for a long time, Qin Hui and Zhao Zhi both knew Zhao Kai's character, and they would never lose their temper so casually.

Zhao Mingcheng was yelled at by Zhao Kai like this, and he didn't speak, and Qin Hui gave Zhao Mingcheng an apologetic look, at this time, if he had a stalemate with Zhao Mingcheng, the governor of Jiangnan, this time he could only directly declare himself a failure.

Zhao Mingcheng doesn't think anything, not to mention that he is a prince, it is understandable to yell at himself, even if he changes someone else, after understanding the current situation in Jiangnan, he will definitely be like Zhao Kai and have a violent mood, Zhao Mingcheng can understand.

"The lower official will send someone to transfer people back." Zhao Mingcheng got up and left the room.

Zhao Zhi looked at Zhao Kai and said, "Third brother, control your emotions, Zhao Zhizhou has always insisted on staying in Jiangnan to deal with the floods, and it is not easy." ”

"I was so grumpy just now, I was controlled by my emotions." Zhao Kai calmed down for a while, and then said, "If you want food, you don't have food, if you don't have manpower, let me use what to treat the flood, Wang Hao, Tong Guan, you really gave me a big gift in return." ”

Qin Hui said, "King Yun doesn't need to worry, the problem of flooding is a matter of time, as long as there is no longer a continuous rainstorm recently, after a long time, the water will naturally recede, and the main problem is how to resettle these victims." ”

"Disaster victims, so many disaster victims, housing is a problem, not to mention food."

"If there is no food, then ask the court again." Zhao Zhi said with a very simple look.

When Zhao Kai heard this, he rubbed his temples and said, "Wang Hao and Tong Guan will definitely not let me successfully manage the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, if I ask the court for disaster relief food, they will definitely be pressed down." ”

Qin Hui smiled indifferently: "Actually, you don't necessarily have to ask the court for disaster relief food. ”

Zhao Kai and Zhao Zhi looked at Qin Hui one after another.

"The food of 30,000 people, unlike where the imperial court wants to get it, we don't have so much money to buy food."

Qin Hui slowly spit out four words: "Zhu family business group." ”

"The Zhu family business group? Cheng Shilang won't really buy food out of his own pocket as the third brother said, right? ”

Qin Hui shook his head slightly, "What King Yun said is right, we don't have so much money to buy food." ”

Zhao Kai was a little stunned, and said, "Is the undertaker going to do it?" ”

"We don't have any money, but the Zhu family business group does, and solving the food problem of tens of thousands of people is not a problem for the Zhu family business group at all."

Qin Hui pretended to pause profoundly, looked at Zhao Kai and Zhao Zhi, and then continued, "If you want the Zhu family merchant group to pay for the food of the disaster victims, you don't have to use money, you can also use your name and profit. ”

When Zhao Kai heard this, he suddenly realized, "I think I understand what Cheng Shilang meant." ”

Qin Hui smiled faintly, and then said, "We only need a weighty person to talk to the chief shopkeeper of the Zhu family business group, I think the Zhu family business group has no reason to refuse." ”

Zhao Kai's frowning brows stretched, and said, "Zhu family business group, leave it to me." ”
