164 It is time to buy people's hearts
Although most of the soldiers among the Spaniards were members of the Royal Guard, they were at sea for so long, and when they went ashore to rest, they either drank and gambled or looked for women.
The housekeeper of the Shen family also helped contact the Fengyue place in Dinghai County, and the old bustard took the girls here, but before the Spaniards approached, he vomited and ran.
The Spaniards were also depressed.
Shen Yue was also worried that the Spaniards would make trouble, so he kept sending people to keep an eye on them, and Kent and Thomas had been restraining their subordinates in order to have a good relationship with Shen Yue, and nothing happened for such a long time.
"Thank you, aunt, for your kindness! The little nephew will arrange it. Shen Yue got the reply and said happily.
Lilac looked at his back as he ran out happily and sighed.
"Madam, those military households...... "The housekeeper couldn't help frowning when he heard Madame ask him to vacate the side courtyard to take in the military households whose houses were in tatters.
The relationship between the military household and the Xu family can be said to be very poor, even if it is harmonious on the surface, but the Xu family is powerful and the military family cannot afford to provoke it.
The land of the Xu family is planted by the people in his own family, and the military households farm the land, so don't expect the harvest.
"Shen Yue is right, human life is at stake. Although it is not a pity that these broken houses are dead, Shen Yue has knelt down, can he still harden his heart? If he thinks that our family is hard-hearted and Jiao'er has no sympathy, how can it be good? Before he got married, his family had a concubine......" Lilac sighed and said to the housekeeper.
The housekeeper had no choice but to arrange for people to vacate two yards that are usually used to pile up farm tools and sundries, and rarely live in people's yards.
The wind and rain outside were getting stronger and stronger, and Shen Yue was already soaked, so he simply followed Shen Qi and others to participate in the disaster relief.
Some of the men in the family had already died in the war and did not come back to the north, and the roofs of the houses were all blown over by the strong wind, and the helpless women could only hold their young children and look at God and cry.
"Arrange someone and send the Xu family to it. Pay attention to see whose house collapses, save people first! The wind and rain were too strong, and Shen Yue had to roar loudly to let the people around him hear.
......At this moment, a nearby house collapsed.
"Ah......h
"Mother......
The screams and the child's cry faintly reached Shen Yue's ears.
"Help!" Shen Yue took the lead in running towards the collapsed house.
The houses, like most houses, were made of earth and covered with wooden roofs.
The houses of the rich families were built of stone, but unfortunately there were not many stone houses in the entire thousand households.
There are also very few seaweed houses built by wealthy families.
Houses that have been in disrepair for a long time have walls made of mud, and when the roof leaks, it is easy to collapse.
Where the sound came from, it was already a mess, the walls had all collapsed, and faint moans and children's cries could be heard under the thatched roofs of the houses.
"Lift the wood and save the people quickly!" The wind and rain are too strong to find out where people are based on the sound.
More than a dozen of Shen Yue's subordinates worked together to lift the wood and thatch on it, and dug out a middle-aged woman in her thirties with skin and bones.
"Child, save the child first!" The woman's leg was crushed, and she looked at Minzhuang who saved her, crying and begging, "Please, save my child first......"
"Don't worry, someone is saving the child." Shen Yue replied loudly, and then shouted to the subordinates next to him, "Go find a door panel and carry the injured back to our house!" ”
"Young master, there is no place for our family!" When Shen Qi heard this, he was shocked.
The room vacated by the Shen family was already crowded with military households.
In other places, naturally you have to stick to the Shen family's own family first, right?
When I got here, I didn't have time to build a house for the people of the Xu family who came with me.
"Then put it in our yard! These injured people must be well cared for. "Save people to the end, send the Buddha to heaven.
Naturally, these people can't be arranged in the old lady's yard, but Shen Yue's own yard is empty, but there are several empty rooms.
"Young master, your backyard is full of silver!" Shen Qi leaned into Shen Yue's ear and whispered.
"Where else can you manage so much now?" Shen Yue was speechless.
He really didn't believe that the people he had saved would steal his money.
This is a good opportunity to buy people's hearts, those loyal people come back, after knowing, dare to be more loyal?
If there are dead people, how can those who are forced to be loyal have no ideas?
Shen Qi was helpless, so he could only think about going back and arranging for someone to keep an eye on.
There were three children who were pressed by the thatched hut, the eldest was eleven or twelve years old, and the youngest was five or six years old.
Almost all of them were injured.
"Carry it back, find Lang Zhong to bandage them, and arrange for more people to come out to help." Shen Yue gave an order to his subordinates.
The wind and rain are getting heavier and heavier, and the residences of military households are relatively concentrated, and houses collapse from time to time.
Most of the prime-age labor force of the Shen family was transferred out by Shen Yue, and the people who stayed in Longshan, and even some of the Spaniards also participated in the rescue.
It was busy until it was almost dark, and everyone was settled.
"Come on, let the people in the house find some old clothes and change them on. Boil some ginger soup and distribute it...... "Xu family, after Xu Yaozong came back, not only was he not angry when Ding Xiang agreed to Shen Yue's request to contain the military households whose houses collapsed, but they were very supportive.
This made Lilac think that he was sick from the heavy rain and had a fever and was talking nonsense.
"The boy of the Shen family has become the agent of the newly built Wujiawan Guarding Thousand Households, and Lao Tzu is the Thousand Households of Longshan! Does it make people think that we are inferior to him? Although none of these military households are good things. Xu Yaozong said.
made Lilac cry and laugh.
It turned out that his father-in-law was jealous of Shen Yue.
Also, Shen Yue is only 16 years old, and in less than three months, he has become a thousand households with five products from the white body that was dismissed from showing his talents, how can he not make people jealous?
"Of course, these are all counted as silver, come down and settle with that kid privately." Xu Yaozong waited for the housekeeper to arrange it, and then whispered to Lilac, "He has pit more than 100,000 taels of silver from the hands of Franco. ”
Lilac couldn't cry or laugh.
It was up to Xu Yaozong to go.
"How did that kid Shen Yue become a thousand households in Wujiawan? That place is not the royal family's outlet to the sea? Ding Xiang thought about Shen Yue becoming the agent of Wujiawan for thousands of households, and couldn't help but be curious.
It stands to reason that this is simply not possible.
The imperial court has no money and no food, and it is too late to abolish the Imperial Thousand Households, how could it be established at this time?
"Zhao Jiayu of the Zhao family rebelled, and the Wang family was slaughtered by the whole family......" Before Xu Yaozong felt that he had no face and didn't tell Ding Xiang about it.
After hearing this, Lilac couldn't help but smack her tongue.
"In this way, he can get a chance, but it's a pity that this kid didn't become an official in the court, otherwise, with his means, maybe he will be able to enter the cabinet in the future and become the prime minister!"
"......" Xu Yaozong was even more depressed.
People are more angry than people, and this must be infuriating.
