Chapter 115: The granary is in an emergency

In the past few days, Ning Bosheng and Zhu Yuan have been distributing porridge for the refugees in the Taihe area, but the delay in the arrival of relief food has made them feel very anxious.

After dividing the porridge that day, Ning Bosheng called the guards over and asked, "The relief food and silver from the capital should have arrived, what did the guards in the post station say?" ”

The guard replied: "Back to the prince, there is no news, and there is no one from the capital at the post station ahead." ”

Ning Bosheng chuckled in his heart, had a bad premonition in his heart, and said anxiously: "Immediately gather a team of soldiers, wait for me to set off, let's go to the official road to see the situation!" ”

"Yes!" The guards immediately ran to gather the men.

Ning Bosheng calmed down and walked to Zhu Yuan's wing.

Zhu Yuan saw that he was in a hurry, and asked suspiciously, "Lord Wang, is something wrong?" ”

"The relief grain and silver in the capital should be coming, but there is no news for a long time, I suspect that something happened on the road, and now the grain in the granary is about to bottom out, if something happens to the relief grain, it will be bad!"

Ning Bosheng was a little anxious, if there was no food in the city, not only would the drought situation be more serious, but I am afraid that Ning Boyu would also make a fuss about it.

Zhu Yuan looked at him with a sad face and asked, "What are you going to do now?" ”

Ning Bosheng replied: "I'm going to take people to find them along the official road to see if anything has happened to their team." ”

Zhu Yuan nodded approvingly, and said worriedly: "Then you should be careful all the way." ”

"Here...," Ning Bosheng said hesitantly.

"Don't worry, I'll watch it for you here, it'll be fine." Zhu Yuan said soothingly.

"Okay, I'll leave a few good guards to protect you, and if you still want to do it, let's go with the state prefect!" Ning Bosheng said softly.

"Okay, you need to think more about safety."

After Ning Bosheng said goodbye to Zhu Yuan, he went to the state prefect to tell him some things, and then he led the team away with confidence.

"Lord Wang, we've been running for two days, and we haven't even seen a human figure, I'm afraid..."

Ning Bosheng's expression was a little cold, nodded, and said: "I'm afraid there was an accident, I don't know if the food in Taihe City can last up to the disaster relief food, we have to speed up the pace, let everyone clean up, and continue to move forward." ”

Ning Bosheng was anxiously hurrying here, and the governor was also anxious like an ant on a hot pot.

Zhu Yuan looked at the prefect who was walking around in front of him, felt that his head was about to be dizzy by him, he helped his forehead, and said helplessly: "Lord Prefect, don't worry, there will always be a solution." ”

"Ouch, I wish the girl, can you not be in a hurry, the food in the granary can't last a few days, the prince has been gone for two days, and no news has come back, presumably the disaster relief grain will arrive in three days at the earliest, but I'm afraid that the grain in the granary won't last." The governor said with a bitter face.

Zhu Yuan sighed deeply and persuaded: "Lord Prefect, let's go and divide the porridge first, I have some ideas about the suggestions for food, and I'll talk to you later." ”

The governor's eyes lit up, and he nodded hurriedly, and then he put his mind at ease, wishing Yuan and Ning Bosheng a good relationship, even if something went wrong later, he would probably not blame it.

Zhu Yuan didn't know what the governor was thinking about, but he had to think about it seriously, according to the current amount of food in the granary, at best, it would only be enough for three or four days, if Ning Bosheng hadn't brought back the relief grain for three or four days, I was afraid that the people would only be hungry.

Unless you start cutting back on the porridge distribution now.

Zhu Yuan sighed, thinking that this method may not work, the people are in a bad mood for days, I am afraid that it will reach a critical point, if it is reduced at this time, I am afraid it will cause turmoil, and there are still things in my fishing space, but these have no chance to take it out. "Grandma Zheng, you drink slowly this time, don't choke like last time." Zhu Yuan smiled and handed the porridge in his hand to the old lady's hand.

"Hey, okay, I wish the girl is really a living Bodhisattva, and the beauty of the person is good!" Grandma Zheng looked at Zhu Yuan's smiling eyes, and felt very kind, these days Zhu Yuan has always been Zhu Yuan for everyone to share porridge, and the people also know her, and everyone is very relieved to have her.

After Zhu Yuan finished dividing the porridge, he remembered that there were still some practical seaweeds in the fishing space that could be given to the people, and while the governor and others were not paying attention, Zhu Yuan quickly returned to the room and ran to the fishing space to take out a few baskets of seaweed.

"Miss Zhu, are you there?"

The voice of the governor suddenly came from outside the door, which made Zhu Yuan a little flustered, and hurriedly walked out of the room and responded: "Here!" ”

The governor said anxiously: "Miss Zhu, the guards have sent back the news, it is said that the prince and they have not yet met the disaster relief team from the capital, how do you say this is good?" ”

Zhu Yuan stabilized his mind and said, "How long can the grain in the granary last." ”

The governor frowned, "For two days at most, I need to cook some grain." ”

Zhu Yuan shook his head and said: "This is not possible, the people are already angry, and the news that the disaster relief food is on the way has been released, if the food is reduced at this time, I am afraid that the people will cause turmoil." ”

The governor was so anxious that he stomped his feet, gritted his teeth and said, "Then what do you say to Zhu girl?" ”

Zhu Rong pondered for a moment and made a suggestion: "Taihe is also a relatively large city, and the economic development is very good, and the merchants and officials must have granaries, so they can only lend a hand." ”

The state governor moved his mouth, but he stopped talking.

Zhu Yuan asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

The governor of the state said meaningfully: "I wish the girl not to report too much hope, they are a group of people, hey!" ”

Zhu Yuan guessed a few points when he saw his expression, and said with a firm look in his eyes: "No matter what, I still have to give it a try, wait for the prefect to take me to visit the wealthier businessmen and officials!" ”

Although the governor was not optimistic, he agreed.

On the official road, Ning Bosheng and others were resting in place, and after three days of investigation, they still did not meet the disaster relief team from the capital.

"Lord Wang, the prefect said that the food in the city can only last for two days."

Ning Bosheng nodded, his face was grim, and time was pressing, so he could only find relief food quickly, otherwise there might be a big mess in the city.

"Report! The spies at the front said that they had found some information, and a team of suspicious men in black was passing by a post station in front of them, which may be related to the disaster relief team. ”

Ning Bosheng was a little excited when he heard the news, and immediately stood up and shouted, "Okay, let's go immediately and see what's going on!" ”

A team of guards mounted their horses, Ning Bosheng quickly whipped his horse, and the group disappeared into the night.
