As the spokesperson of Xin Qiji, as soon as Ma Chao entered the city, the prefect of Yongzhou came to greet him. This prefect's surname is Zhou, and he is said to be a distant relative of Zhou Bida.

Ma Chao is from the Jin Kingdom, of course he doesn't know what characters there are in the Southern Song Dynasty. This week must be big, and he was a big man in the Song Dynasty. It is especially appreciated by the current emperor Song Xiaozong, and this year he became the governor of politics, and this position is the replacement of the prime minister.

In the Song Dynasty, the prime minister was really one person above and below ten thousand people, such as Qin Hui, this thing that made ten thousand people scold was the prime minister.

This prefect is called Zhou Shang, relying on himself to be a distant relative of Zhou Bida, and he is powerful in Yongzhou. Looking at Zhou Shang's oily head and noodles, Ma Chao felt disgusted, and he didn't greet Zhou Shang, and directly said that he wanted to go to the grain depot to have a look.

Zhou Shang's face was full of unhappiness, and he didn't dare to offend, so he could only let the squires go back first, and followed Ma Chao's horse ass with his own fart, Ma Chao deliberately let the horse go faster, this Zhou Shang was tired and panting in the back, and he couldn't catch up, so he shouted: "Adult, slow down, slow down!" ”

It stands to reason that Ma Chao has no official and no luck, but Zhou Shang is a six-grade official in the imperial court. It is not proper and deceitful to do so. But Ma Chao represents Xin Qiji, and everything he does is Xin Qiji's will, so even if Zhou Shang looks down on Ma Chao, he doesn't dare to have any disrespect for Ma Chao.

……

When it came to the treasury, there was really little food in it, if it was really opened to release grain, within a few days, even this oily and powdery Zhou Shang would starve to death. When he came, Xin Qiji told Ma Chao that this Yongzhou is located at the place where the two rivers of Xiaoxiang meet, and if he tries to rebuild the waterway, the relief grain of the imperial court can arrive as quickly as possible.

This man is so hungry that there is no man who has the strength to build a river and improve it.

Looking at the grain in the grain depot, Ma Chao can only use one method, of course, this method is not to open a warehouse and release grain, but to distribute it according to work. If you want to eat, you have to earn it with your own hands, and Ma Chao gives these people a chance.

On the same day, Ma Chao lived in the post house, refused the banquet of Zhou Shang and the squire, and made a notice overnight, the content of the notice was that the waterway was to be built now, and the people who participated in the construction would get a certain amount of food every day according to their own efforts.

The next day, Ma Chao was separated from Nameless, Nameless took the Shenyu team to go to Dongshan to pick herbs, Nameless's Gu Poison Technique could not be used, but the experience accumulated over the years, especially the configuration of herbs, had reached the level of a master. She is no longer a combat force, but she has become a rare military doctor.

The famine has been going on for some time, and some people are already sick with hunger, and even if someone helps them earn food and drink gruel, they can't be able to work right away, they need treatment.

Ma Gan and Ma Chao were together, and when they arrived at the recruitment place, there was really no one, and no one believed the announcement. Ma Gan asked Ma Chao what to do? Ma Chao sighed and said, Shang Yang changed the law.

At this time, a person came over, dizzy with hunger, and asked Ma Chao if he really built the river to give food?

Ma Chao kicked down a piece of wood at random and said to this person, if you move it twenty zhang away, you will have a meal to eat. Ma Chao said and pointed to the horse pole, and there was a bag of grain next to the horse pole.

The man picked up the wood in disbelief, staggered and gritted his teeth, and finally walked to the position designated by Ma Chao, and the horse pole filled the grain with a small bag and gave it to this person, who left happily.

"Will someone come?" The horse pole waited for a long time, and when he saw that it was still empty, he couldn't help but ask.

"Maybe!"

Ma Chao wasn't sure, but as soon as he finished speaking, he saw a large group of people rushing towards this side. (To be continued.) )
