After seeing Lu Xiaozhu go away, Chang Zhenbang rushed to Zhang Jifei's porridge shed, and after so long, the people in front of the porridge shed still couldn't insert the needles inside and outside three circles, and the water couldn't splash in.

As soon as he heard that Chang Zhenbang was coming, Zhang Jifei no matter how awkward he felt in his heart, he still picked up his clothes and rushed over in a hurry, saying: "The town guard made the adults come, and it really made Zhang Peng shine!" In fact, I wish Chang Zhenbang would never appear in front of him.

Chang Zhenbang smiled slightly and said: "President Zhang, you can open a porridge shed here to help the people, and you have really done a good thing for the people of Jiujiang." On behalf of the Jiujiang Town Guard, I would like to express my highest condolences and appreciation to you. "Saying that it was a condolence but did not bring a penny of gifts, this sincerity is really weak.

Zhang Jifei said: "Zhang was born and grew up in Si, why can't Jiujiang revive his own strength?" These are all things that are within Zhang's responsibility, and they really don't deserve such praise from the town guard. ”

He was so modest, the people around the porridge shed couldn't help it, and they rushed up to Chang Zhenbang's side, and scrambled to say: "Zhang Chang is old and virtuous, and he personally abbots the porridge shed, he is really a living Bodhisattva......

Before he could finish speaking, another person interjected and said, "President Zhang is anxious about what people urgently need, not only takes care of our food, but also gives us work, he is really a good person!" ”

"President Zhang......" The surrounding refugees rushed to praise Zhang Jifei, Zhang Jifei practiced on the side and said that he didn't dare to be, but the pride was really a bit of a demonstration to Chang Zhenbang.

Chang Zhenbang laughed and said: "Mr. Zhang really lived up to the trust of the official, and sure enough, the donations from the gentlemen of China and the West were donated to the blade." The official was very pleased. Someone came to bring up the things that the official had given to Mr. Zhang. Zhang Youneng listened, and hurriedly took two horses to send the two pennants to Zhang Jifei.

These two pennants are written on one side of the year Gao Deshao, and the bottom is written on the Jiujiang Town Guard Envoy Chang Gift, but the other side is twice as large, but the words on it are very small, multi-pole, dense like ants, if you look carefully, you will find that they are all names, but they have a number behind their names, this number is completely consistent with the number of donations that night, presumably a very detailed list.

Out of nowhere, a reporter wearing a suit and leather shoes, with a bulky iron box camera hanging around his neck, shot at Zhang Jifei and Chang Zhenbang, Zhang Jifei hurriedly put on a majestic and charitable face, but Chang Zhenbang smiled maliciously.

After taking the photo, Chang Zhenbang called the reporter over and said, "Tell your editor-in-chief that President Zhang has done a great deed and should be praised, and I will see the headlines tomorrow!" ”

The reporter flattered: "Don't worry, sir, our newspaper has always suppressed evil and promoted good, and this kind of great good deed done by Mr. Zhang Jifei will definitely make headlines!" ”

After Chang Zhenbang listened to what he said, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "Add a page to me, and write to me all those charitable people who raise donations, they can not be interested in fame and fortune, but I can't wronged these good people as a dignified envoy." ”

"Your Excellency is wise!" The surrounding refugees cheered excitedly after listening to Chang Zhenbang's words.

Inevitably, someone suddenly rushed out, so frightened that the horses hurriedly maintained Chang Zhenbang in the center, who knew that this person did not look for Chang Zhenbang, but grabbed the reporter and said: "No matter how much Mr. Zhang donates, it must be written in the first one, otherwise Lao Tzu will not spare you!" ”

When he greeted him, the refugees gathered around the porridge shed couldn't help but shout: "Mr. Zhang must be written in the first place, otherwise the old men will not be able to spare you." ”

The reporter had never seen such a big formation, and he was almost frightened, so he couldn't help nodding and said, "I must put Mr. Zhang first, definitely!" ”

Chang Zhenbang couldn't help but laugh when he saw it, although Zhang Jifei still looked majestic and charitable, but his eyes burst out with disgust for the person who first proposed, that day, regardless of China and the West, even the Dongying people have donated, but only his respected Zhang Jifei did not donate a penny, if this is spread, this charity brand is afraid that it will be smashed, he sighed, and was about to bow his head to think about how to fool the past, who knew that the corner of his eye suddenly fell on the big pennant, His name was prominently listed after the total amount, but there was not a single number behind his name, not to mention how awkward it was. This couldn't help but make his heart skip a beat, what is Chang Zhenbang going to do? What's in it for him to pit himself.

Chang Zhenbang laughed and held up the pennant given to Zhang Jifei high, and the reporter took the opportunity to practice pressing the shutter, and there were more than a dozen flashes rubbing up, and Zhang Jifei's face couldn't help but droop.

"Huh! Why is there no money behind Mr. Zhang, is it a mistake! ”

Finally, someone found the flaw in the pennant and couldn't help but stand up and shout.

Chang Zhenbang hurriedly looked towards the pennant, and suddenly showed a surprised look, turned around and called Zhang Youneng over, and said, "Adjutant Zhang, what's going on?" What about the money behind the old man? ”

Zhang Youneng scratched his head, in his impression, there should be a number behind Zhang Jifei's name, and the number is not small, how did it turn out to be gone when it was sent over, and the work was done like this, the tailor will not have to mix in Jiujiang City from today onwards, but now it is better to save himself first, thinking of this, Zhang Youneng smiled bitterly: "Lord of the town guard, it is all humble and incompetent, and he actually let the tailor slap his eyes." He turned to a few horses behind him and said, "Listen to Lao Tzu, and immediately arrest that tailor for me!" ”

Behind him, two people immediately came out of the horse and wanted to arrest people from the tailor shop, and many disaster victims and refugees spontaneously wanted to follow Ma Ben to clean up the tailor who didn't know the height of the sky, seeing this state, Zhang Jifei smiled, turned his head and glanced at Chang Zhenbang, and said in his heart You just act, Lao Tzu didn't donate a penny, can you not know? I'll see how you end!

Chang Zhenbang glanced at the crowd, glanced back at Zhang Jifei, and reprimanded loudly: "The old gentleman is so compassionate, I really don't want to see you so impulsive, who can be a sage or sage, that tailor is just not skilled, what are you people going to do when you rush over?" Going to smash the store? Or kill him? Is it really good for you to be so impulsive? Is it worthy of Mr. Zhang Jifei's philanthropic spirit? ”

The commotion crowd was reprimanded by Chang Zhenbang, and these people talked about it, although they were still so dissatisfied with the tailor and wanted to smash the shop, but because of Zhang Jifei's charity, they had to give up.

Chang Zhenbang turned around and looked at Zhang Jifei and said, "I think it's better to ask the old gentleman to write the money in person." It's a good talk! ”

People are old and fine, doesn't Chang Zhenbang just want to make some blood himself? Then it's a big deal for you to come out with five hundred! Anyway, it's not much, and when the rumor spreads tomorrow that he wrote the money to save the tailor, his family's business will be better, even if he spends money to buy a reputation.

Zhang Jifei smiled slightly and said, "If you can save people's lives, what's the harm if you write it yourself?" Then the subordinates of the old Zhang family brought the pen and ink, Zhang Jifei took a sip, and wrote five hundred oceans under his name.

Chang Zhenbang hurriedly took it, thinking that he was going to raise the pennant, who knew that his hand pulled behind Zhang Jifei's name, the silk thread fell, and the money behind it leaked, and said: "This tailor is really!" How can you be so careless when weaving a pennant! After speaking, he threw the pennant to the reporter, and the reporter hurriedly grabbed it and took a close-up of the pennant. The close-up was snatched by the surrounding crowd just after the pennant, and then it was read out loud.

"Mr. Zhang Jifei donated 10,000 oceans!"

The crowd suddenly became excited. Zhang Jifei turned his head slowly, glanced at Chang Zhenbang in a daze, and fell into the arms of his subordinates.

Chang Zhenbang was busy, stretched out his finger and poked under the old man's nose, then turned around to face the victims, first sighed, and then said very regretfully: "The old man is dedicated to goodness, but his physical strength is exhausted, and he faints with excitement by chance. ”

The surrounding victims suddenly lamented with regret, and many good men and women knelt down on the spot, praying for the Bodhisattva Buddha to bless Mr. Zhang.

Chang Zhenbang said: "It is a good thing to help the victims, but it is a pity that the official relies too much on Mr. Zhang, forgetting that Mr. Zhang is already an old man, which is the negligence of the official, and the official only represents the government to express gratitude to the old man for everything he has done for the Jiujiang refugees!" As he spoke, he bowed to Zhang Jifei in public, then straightened up and continued: "Mr. Zhang is sick and is no longer qualified for porridge shed and other related work, and now the official has appointed Zhang Youneng to replace Mr. Zhang to preside over the relief work. ”

Zhang Youneng quickly stood up and said: "Please rest assured, my lord, I will be loyal to my duties, and let every penny be spent on the blade!" "It's a fat job to help the victims, how can he be unhappy!

Chang Zhenbang said: "When I hand over to the Zhang family, the accounts must be innocent, and Mr. Zhang's reputation must not be lost. ”

"You officials can't believe it, let Mr. Zhang preside over it!" Some of the refugees began to shout. After his shouting, the refugees also began to attack.

"The old gentleman is already tired for the sake of you, can you still let the old gentleman die of exhaustion? People's hearts are long, the old gentleman will be heart-to-heart, you can't feel sorry for the old man! ”

Chang Zhenbang said angrily and gave Zhang Youneng a look at the first time, and Zhang Youneng immediately took the two horses to the crowd.

Although those refugees around the porridge shed still hope that Zhang Jifei can preside over it, everything that happened just now has shown that Zhang Jifei did a good job of giving porridge this time, but the large amount of money still relies on the financing of Chang Zhenbang and others, whose porridge and rice can't be eaten? You can't starve to death after Zhang Jifei faints! Many refugees are relieved to think of this.

After a while, Zhang Youneng took Ma Ben to pull out a person from behind these victims. "What's going on?" Chang Zhenbang said quite majestically.

Zhang Youneng kicked the Zhang family down in front of Chang Zhenbang, and said, "If the adults ask you, say it honestly!" ”

The Zhang family member glanced at Chang Zhenbang, knelt down with his head down, and said cautiously: "The villain didn't know what he had done, so he was arrested by these military masters." Please also make it clear. ”

Chang Zhenbang smiled and said, "Look at you dressed like a descendant of the Zhang family?" ”

The Zhang family lowered his head and said: "What the adults said is right, the little Zhang Fa is Zhang Jifei and Master Zhang's personal entourage." ”

Chang Zhenbang was still speaking softly just now, who knew that he suddenly turned his face and scolded sharply: "Since it is a personal follower, I must know that this disaster relief fund was raised by this official and handed over to your lord for disaster relief, why did you mix in with the victims and make a fuss?" ”

The Zhang family was stunned for a moment, lowered their heads, and said, "The adults don't understand what the adults said. ”

Chang Zhenbang turned his head and glanced at Zhang Youneng, Zhang Youneng waved his hand again and pulled several victims in front of Chang Zhenbang, and said, "My lord, when that kid was coaxing just now, these people were beside that person!" The victims trembled and knelt in front of Chang Zhenbang, and said what the Zhang family had just coaxed again. Chang Zhenbang immediately sank his face when he heard this, and said: "How can this be true, this official saw that Zhang Jifei was a well-known person in Jiujiang City, so he entrusted him with this disaster relief, but I didn't expect him to play this trick, could it be that there is no one in Jiujiang City except him Zhang Jifei who can help the victims?" Lao Tzu doesn't believe in this evil! Zhang Youneng From now on, you will have full authority to take over the disaster relief, if one of the victims is too fat and thin, they will be immediately detained for the crime of impersonating the victims and attacking the government! ”

"Obedience!" Zhang Youneng said loudly: "Please rest assured, I will ensure that every grain of rice will be spent on the victims." ”

"Good!" Chang Zhenbang turned his head to the reporter just now and said: "Disaster relief is a major event, the government supervises, and public opinion supervision must also supervise, your newspaper may wish to publish the news, let the major newspapers and citizens also supervise together, and be sure not to let the government moth hurt the court's love for the people, and do not let the people mix in with the disaster victims to get food." ”

A series of big news made the reporter quite excited, he felt that today was really the right time, as long as these newspapers were sent out tomorrow, Jiujiang City would be their newspaper in the future.

Chang Zhenbang continued: "Immediately notify Lord Liu Shifa of the Military Judge Advocate General's Office to check the disaster relief accounts!" ”

Zhang Youneng said: "Yes, my lord! ”

Then a horse was sent out, and after a while, Liu Shifa ran over with a few officials from the Military Judge Advocate General's Office panting, and after saying some clichés to Chang Zhenbang, he began to work on Zhang Jifei's disaster relief situation these days.
