Profiteers and profiteers, no businessmen are not traitors, this sentence is absolutely true no matter what era it is placed in, businessmen always only put interests first, even if natural and man-made disasters occur, as long as their interests are not affected, they will not stand up, just like now, drought and locust plagues do not threaten their interests, they will stand on the sidelines, only after the war endangers their lives, they will jump out to scatter wealth and save the country.

Squinting at the people in the hall, Zhang Yi said in his heart: It's really none of my business, these stingy vampires! No wonder merchants in ancient societies would be reduced to the bottom of the ninth!

Seeing that they didn't care about the life and death of the people, Zhang Yi hated it so much, but now Zhang Yi had to use them.

After a pause, Zhang Yi patiently continued: "The last Chen Yu of this government was a corrupt official, but this government is not, this government is willing to open a warehouse to release grain to relieve the victims, but the current grain in the grain depot is only enough for the affected people in the county to support for more than two months, if the displaced people are coming, it is likely that they will not be able to survive the winter, so I implore you, if you have food at home, I hope you can be generous, and if you can raise food, you will mobilize your connections to find a way to raise it, whether it is wheat, rice, millet or corn, the more the better, The government promises that the government will make a stone of grain ten times higher than the market price... The price of twenty taels is purchased from everyone. ”

Zhang Yi, who originally planned to add only ten taels, was afraid that those businessmen would not be tempted and would not do their best, so he had to temporarily increase it to twenty taels.

Listening to Zhang Yi's words, the eyes of those businessmen began to roll in their sockets, as if they were thinking about how much benefit this transaction could bring them.

Seeing that those businessmen were tempted, Zhang Yi hurriedly gave Dian Heng a look.

Dian Heng, who received Zhang Yi's signal, immediately sat up straight and said that he was willing to donate a thousand stone of wheat, and at the same time, he was also willing to open a warehouse and sell all the surplus grain from his own grain depot to Zhang Yi.

As soon as Dian Heng took the lead, the businessmen who were already excited also expressed their willingness to help Zhang Yi.

Generally speaking, Zhang Yi was quite satisfied with the effect of this night, after the dinner, Zhang Yi also personally sent Dian Heng and those merchants out of the Taishou Mansion, and after sending them away, Zhang Yi did not care about resting, and immediately began to teach those blacksmiths forging skills, those blacksmiths were still skeptical of Zhang Yi's forging skills, but after really accepting his guidance, they all sincerely exclaimed when they saw that the forged blades were really better than before.

Zhang Yi's guidance to those blacksmiths continued until the second half of the night, and finally he was too tired to stand before he was carried back to the room by Dian Wei.

On the way back to the room, Zhang Yi fell asleep directly against Dian Wei.

"My lord?"

Gently pushed Zhang Yi, seeing that Zhang Yi did not react, Dian Wei gently carried Zhang Yi back to the bed, and then carefully took off Zhang Yi's shoes and covered the quilt.

Zhang Yi slept very deeply this night, and Zhang Yi didn't wake up until nine o'clock in the morning.

Because he got up a little late, Zhang Yi didn't even bother to eat breakfast and hurriedly began to arrange today's government affairs.

Zhang Yi has two main government affairs today, one is to send Chen Yu to the guillotine, and the other is to meet with the county orders of the following Xian, but Zhang Yi arranged the two things together.

Yesterday afternoon, Zhang Yi asked the officials to post the obituary of Chen Yu's execution all over the city, and the place of execution was outside the gate of the Taishou Mansion, and at the same time, Zhang Yi arranged the place to meet the Xian Orders outside the Taishou Mansion.

Zhang Yi sat on the high platform, standing on the left and right are the county orders of the counties, the soldiers and officials are guarding the perimeter of the execution ground, isolating the people from the execution ground, when Chen Yu was put on the execution ground, the onlookers scolded one after another, which made the county orders standing on the high platform like a man's back, it was the cool weather of late autumn, but they kept wiping the cold sweat on their foreheads.

"Fathers and fellow villagers, please be calm for a while," raising his hand to signal the people to be quiet, Zhang Yi got up and walked to the edge of the high platform, and said loudly: "I am Zhang Yi, the new Taishou of Hedong County, and the person executed here today must be known to everyone, that is my previous Lord Chen Yu Chen." ”

Raising his hand and pointing at Chen Yu, Zhang Yihong, who stood upside down with his eyebrows, said: "What Lord Chen has done in office, I think everyone knows something, I won't go into detail here, in short, it is eight words, corruption perverts the law, careless of human life, so that the people of the entire Hedong County are in dire straits, and now eighty percent of the people of the entire Hedong County have been affected by the disaster, resulting in the displacement of hundreds of thousands of people, but I solemnly promise here that from today onwards, I will devote myself to the work of helping the victims, Strive to ensure that the people of the county no longer starve to death. ”

After listening to Zhang Yi's words, the people present celebrated one after another, and the cheers could be heard several streets away.

After making another impassioned assurance, Zhang Yi suddenly turned his finger at the Xian orders on the high platform.

"Ladies and gentlemen," after glancing at the county magistrate present with a smile, Zhang Yi said in a loud voice: "We are all under the emperor's grace to patrol the heavens, I have also read your resume, the least of you have been in office for three years, and the longest has been a county magistrate for thirteen years, I want to hear you report on the situation of this Xian, including households, mouths and the details of this disaster, which of you will come first?" ”

As soon as Zhang Yi finished speaking, most of the county magistrates present lowered their heads, and only three of them were still calm.

Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, a young county magistrate who looked like Zhang Yi stood up.

As soon as he threw his hand at Zhang Yi, the county commander said loudly: "Since all my colleagues are silent, then I will come first, and Chen Lin is now ......."

As soon as Chen Lin reported to his home, Zhang Yi's face suddenly changed, and at this moment, Zhang Yi's eyes looked at Chen Lin, just like Huang Zhong saw Diangang, excited with excitement, excited with an ecstatic expression, in short, the eyes were very, very abnormal, if Zhang Yi looked at the little girl with this kind of eyes, it is estimated that he should be scolded as a hooligan.

Looking directly at Chen Lin, Zhang Yi exclaimed, "What? Are you Chen Lin? ”

Zhang Yi's face suddenly changed drastically, which made everyone baffled, and Chen Lin was even more panicked, he didn't understand why Zhang Yi had such a big reaction after hearing his name.

A little panicked and bowed to Zhang Yi, Chen Lin bowed down and replied cautiously: "Returning to my lordship, it is Chen Lin who is humble, and I don't understand why my lord is like this... Looking at his subordinates like this, his subordinates are not the ones..."

Like everyone else, Chen Lin didn't understand why his immediate boss, Lord Taishou, had such a violent reaction when he first saw him, and the reason why Zhang Yi had such a violent reaction was because the name Chen Lin was too famous.
