Chapter 174: Yu Zhongpei's Worries

It's not much, so I grabbed it and threw it on the ground.

A copper plate can buy a large thick dough nest head.

For those who beg on the streets, they can live.

Lin Shuqing stood at the door for a while, but finally didn't go in.

Just as she turned to leave, she saw a somewhat familiar face.

The man walking on the street with a frowning brow was not Lord Yu Zhongpeiyu?

When Lin Shuqing saw Yu Zhongpei, Yu Zhongpei also saw Lin Shuqing.

Quickly stepped forward and saluted, "Miss Lin is back from the south?" ”

"Your Excellency, don't come unharmed."

Lin Shuqing returned a salute.

Yu Zhongpei looked around Lin Shuqing, didn't see anyone, and looked a little weird at her wearing such clothes, but he didn't think much about it.

"Thanks to the girl who taught me how to get water, the one who returned to the county in the past is much better than in other places." Thinking of this, Yu Zhongpei's brows stretched a lot.

"It's my job to be able to help adults and help so many people." Lin Shuqing smiled and didn't care.

"But it's ...... on this street"

"Would the girl be interested in coming with me to the teahouse next door?"

The two went to the teahouse next to them, asked for a pot of tea, and ordered a refreshment.

On the second floor of the teahouse, you can see the whole street clearly.

"I was temporarily transferred to Xigui County, and I will leave after a few years here." Yu Zhongpei looked at Lin Shuqing and said.

Lin Shuqing was not surprised by this, the county order was gone before, and he temporarily found one from somewhere else, and he thought that someone else would take over in the future.

"This winter, the situation here is not expected to be too good. The girl's method before made a lot of food preservation gifts in several villages on the southern slope of Pingnanpo, but it was only a few thousand catties. ”

"I and other county orders have passed letters, and they are afraid that the loss due to hail is tens of thousands of catties. In addition, it didn't rain in the first day, and a lot of weeds were pulled up on the hills......"

"I can adjust the grain down a few times, but I'm afraid it's not enough." Yu Zhongpei said this, his tone was a little lost.

He is not very old, and he has been persuaded to read the books of sages and sages since he was a child, so as to benefit the people of Li.

But in the end, things are not as easy as the book says.

He was fed, and the people below were hungry.

Even if he could divide his rations, he wouldn't be able to save more people.

Lin Shuqing was silent for a moment and thought for a while.

"My lord, I can recruit a group of people to farm the land, but there are so many people in the former county, I'm afraid I can't take care of too many people." Lin Shuqing said.

I sent someone to clean up the ground for her before, and I was going to plant some rape to extract oil.

But then so many things happened, she also went to the south, and the land at home was not planted.

However, rapeseed seeds should be bred.

"I don't know much, but if you want to buy some food from the south, I can still help."

For this, Yu Zhongpei didn't have any idea.

"Miss Lin, directly distribute the food, I'm afraid that there will be more refugees and beggars pouring into Xigui County, and more people will starve to death by then......"

"In the first half of the year, there have been a lot of jokes." Yu Zhongpei said with a wry smile, raised the teacup, and drank it all.

A faint mist steamed on his face, with a hint of coolness.

"I wonder if you have ever thought about a question?" Lin Shuqing sold a pass.

"What's the problem?"

"There are no human races in the land today, mainly because of natural disasters in the last year. If these people are sent to farm, will the gap in food for the next year be filled? There won't be so many people begging on the streets......" Lin Shuqing looked at the man who was down.

When everyone else is a poor ghost, she has no reason to be rich alone, even if she is really rich and courteous, it will be very dangerous.

"What do you mean by that?" Yu Zhongpei instantly came to the spirit of salute.

"Cash-for-work! What do adults think? ”

"Nowadays, the yamen can manage the fields, whether it is clearing the land or farming, as long as you hold the land in your own hands, and then let the displaced people farm the land. It is not to give them land, but to let them work, and they will have food to eat. ”

"When they are rich in the coming year, in addition to food, they can also give some broken silver, and when they have money, they can come to the county government to buy land. In this way, it is much better than giving them land and food. Lin Shuqing said.

There is a risk of natural disasters in farming by yourself, and there is no hope yet.

But it's different if you change it to farming for the yamen, the prestige is here, and you can still not starve to death.

Yu Zhongpei's expression changed, which he didn't expect.

In the past, people from the imperial court sent things down, at most to give some food and silver.

Directly opened the granary to put porridge for the victims to eat, and there were a lot of troubles for this.

Cash-for-work is indeed a good idea.

"Then I won't bother the girl, and I'll go home and write an excerpt. After the deed is completed, together with the previous kindness, I will invite the girl to dinner! Yu Zhongpei said happily.

He put the money on the table and went away.

Lin Shuqing looked in the direction he was walking and looked at the sky again.

It seems that the weather is getting colder, and we have to think of a way to keep warm.

When it was almost dark, a few gray-clothed people came to report that Zhang Liqiang had arrived.

The lanterns around the inn were lit, and the dim yellow light was nothing to mention the long street.

Lin Shuqing stood and waited in the wind, and he didn't know how long he had waited, just watching the teapot cold and hot, running back and forth on the stove four times.

The convoy entered the city gates.

Lin Shuqing went to pick them up with a lantern, thinking about what happened a few days ago, it was really unforgettable.

She almost thought she was going to hang up outside.

Fortunately, I am back safely now.

"My girl, I almost won't see you......" Zhang Liqiang looked at Lin Shuqing and ran up with tears on his face.

Standing in front of Lin Shuqing, he was like a child, wiping his tears and snot with his sleeves.

"Boss Zhang, aren't I coming back?" Lin Shuqing said with a smile.

"I will camp outside from now on, and I will not dare to go to the post station. I also know where the wicked people are so bold that even the people of the official family dare to kill. ”

"I've had nightmares for a few days, all of them are ...... in that yard," Zhang Liqiang muttered, saying his feelings after parting with life and death.

"It's good that the girl is fine!"

Zhang Liqiang tidied up his appearance and said with a smile on his face.

They have traveled from south to north in this line, traveled a lot of places, and seen a lot of impermanence in life.

If you see someone else, you can only step forward and comfort a few words and say a word of mourning.

When things happen to you, you can feel the fear in them.

I can't stop feeling sad......

"Boss Zhang is tired, go to the inn to rest, the food is hot in the pot." Lin Shuqing said with a smile.

"Hard girl......

The two of them walked slowly on the dark street, listening to the sounds of the courtyards around them.

The lantern didn't make a long shadow, only a swarthy mass at the feet.

"What happened in the post station, Boss Zhang should not tell others, and let his subordinates not talk about it everywhere." Lin Shuqing said suddenly.
