Over there, Zhao Haikuo, the general of the court, risked his life and used his whole family as a hostage in exchange for a little benefit of the border army, while Li Hang here moved big bags of grain to his home.

It is not for nothing that the family of these years likes to store food like hamsters.

This did not allow the monk to leave, this workshop was also built, and the entire Li family was thriving, and they were all preparing to build a new house and burn brick caves, but the shopkeeper Su brought a very bad news.

Yellow River flooding!

In later generations, there was a term called the Yellow Flood Zone. Of course, the term in later generations does not have a good meaning, but at this time, once the Yellow River floods in the area where the Yellow River floods, it is a large area of flooded farmland, and almost all of those people's adobe houses will be directly washed away.

With the loss of their homes and the land on which they depended, and the fact that almost all of their belongings had been washed away, these farmers suddenly became homeless.

This is the most terrible part of ancient society, the resistance to natural disasters is too low!

It's not like modern times when there are all kinds of flood control projects, plus all kinds of disaster relief measures.

In modern society, there is a problem in one province, that is, one side is in trouble and all sides are supported, and the surrounding provinces and cities can support manpower and materials to rescue the disaster area, which is the best place in modern society.

However, in ancient society, it is not whether you can know the news immediately in other places, even if you know it for the first time, it is a question of when the transportation of disaster relief materials and food for disaster relief will arrive.

These people will spontaneously begin to move to safe places where food is available.

And in ancient times, such people were called outcasts!

Upon hearing the news, Li Hang was first startled, and then shook his head. Where is Tanglin Harbor?

This is the last stop on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.

It can almost be said to be located in the lower reaches of the Yellow River.

The real flood shouldn't come to this.

Looking at Li Hang's indifferent appearance, Shopkeeper Su was even more anxious. "Li Xiucai, Li Xiucai, why do you not know life and death so much! The place where the flood is flooding now is not anywhere else, just north of the river, just next to us, the old man received the news three days ago, I am afraid that these displaced people will flock to us in the near future! ”

"Shhh

Li Hang felt that he had a toothache!

What does it mean to be homeless?

Just look at the reception of refugees in Europe.

There are so many people! If there are more people to eat, the food will soon be insufficient, which is fatal in ancient times, and the number of displaced people increases, and the security environment in this place will decline rapidly, to what extent? Stealing and robbing are all light, but burning, killing and looting are normal!

Once there are homeless people, it is easy to appear bandits, what Shandong Xiangma XX thief Green Forest hero, this is done by a group of hungry and crazy people, otherwise who has nothing to do to rob every day?

"I'll go! I finally had a little money to come to this thing! ”

Li Hang returned home with some restlessness.

There are more than 70 people in the family now, and they finally have a bit of a foundation.

But God knows what will happen when the victims come!

The shed is still a bit far away from my side, not to mention that there is also iron and firewood stored there.

But fortunately, Zhao Yijin is here, he still has some soldiers in his hands, although there are not many.

As soon as he told his family the news at home, Shopkeeper Su came over in a hurry. "Li Xiucai! The prefectural lord is here! He said he wanted to discuss the flood with us! ”

What can happen to such a thing as a flood?

Li Hang himself didn't know, not to mention that this was not a later generation, and the flood was almost unsolvable in this era.

In later generations, there were large machinery, inexhaustible sediment and woven bags, tenacious soldiers and countless volunteers, and Rao still had to suffer a little loss in the face of natural disasters such as floods.

In this day and age, it was almost impossible to defeat the flood, so we had to wait for it to fade naturally.

Li Hang nodded and went to the Su family firm again.

As soon as he entered, he saw Lord Xiancheng, and he only saw it last time in the academy, but when he saw this county again, he found that the current county Cheng was anxious, and his hair was a little messy.

"Grass people, students meet the county lord!"

The necessary politeness is still necessary, after all, this is an official!

"Hurry up, please! This official has long heard of the names of Shopkeeper Su and Li Xiucai, and it is better to meet them when they see them today! ”

County Cheng Wang Xintian sighed. "Several neighboring counties have been plagued by the flooding of the Yellow River, and our county is both anxious and helpless! If it is not managed, I am afraid that the victims of this disaster will flock to this county! Helplessly, the county government did not have surplus grain to relieve the victims, so the official ran everywhere to borrow grain from the rich households in the city, but the harvest was not good in recent years, and the rich households refused to ...... Ay! ”

That's really ......

Li Hang didn't know what to say.

There are disaster victims in this place, and you go to borrow food from others, saying that you are going to help the victims, so who is willing to pay?

After all, many people have the idea that it has nothing to do with themselves, and as long as the victims are not in front of them, it is estimated that they will not have any waves, and even laugh at those victims.

"There is no such thing as a rich person donating money to solve it, adults must understand that everything in the world is actually a business, and business is a fair deal! Adults blindly ask each other to donate rice and grain, but can't give things to others, of course this thing has to be yellow, there is no business in this world that only takes money and does not give goods! Li Hang smiled.

Xintian, the county king, was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. "The treasury in the county is empty, how can there be anything to buy and sell rice and grain with the family! If I had, I wouldn't be so irritable, and I haven't slept well for days! ”

Li Hang has understood, but this adult hasn't figured this matter out yet!

Li Hang sighed. "It seems that the adults have not yet understood, the interests of the world, it is not only a good word, but also a good word, this shallow property can be regarded as a benefit, but there are still some invisible interests, adults have never seen. Such as this reputation! ”

"Oh?" Wang Xintian felt that he seemed to have grasped some points, but he never thought about it, and now that he saw Li Hang, it seemed that he had thought of something.

"I have long seen Li Xiucai's talent and learning, and the master is the teacher, so I implore Li Xiucai to teach me without hesitation!" After speaking, Wang Xintian stood up violently and bowed to Li Hang.

Li Hang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. "Isn't Lord Xiancheng already understood? Since I can be a corporal of courtesy to my juniors, why don't you use this trick to deal with those families? ”

Wang Xintian was still a little confused, but soon sighed again.

"How can this Wang not know, but these big families ......"

It's almost a big dog!

But it doesn't matter!

"Do you know why people who beat people to vent their anger like to drag people to crowded places and beat them?"

"Huh?" As a county magistrate in the county, of course he has dealt with the case of beating people, and as Li Hang said, the beaters naturally like to drag people to places with a lot of people to beat, and scold while beating, this is not the end, and people will watch after the beating.

"But what does it matter?" Wang Xintian still didn't understand.

Li Hang rolled his eyes, he still doesn't understand, this is the same as pretending to be forced, who do you pretend to show without an audience?
