Ling Feng paused when he heard this, and after a while, he seemed to have suddenly figured out something.

"Definitely. I found this out in town today as well. Except for the necessary few people, there were not even young adults or anything like that. ”

The necessary number of people refers to the necessary servants and others who are necessary as a capital. These people are irreplaceable beings, so they generally do not disappear.

And what Shangguan Ling just said is exactly what he saw and heard today. There are few pedestrians on the streets, and many homes are mostly closed.

The few that are open are either blacksmiths or coffins. Although many families cannot afford to buy coffins, there are still a few that have the opportunity to buy them.

However, Ling Feng's body today was poured a basin of water in front of him because of the investigation and investigation. That's why I poured him a cold heart.

"How's the inquiry about the flood?" Looking at Ling Feng's current appearance, he didn't want to mention the reason why he made himself wet.

Immediately, he skipped this point and looked straight at Ling Feng again. After all, the reason they came here was to solve the flood.

As for the affairs of the yamen, at most, they interfered in the places where they could do so. The matter of controlling the flood is an agreement with Emperor Ling, and it cannot be annulled.

"It seems that a lot of young people have gone to build the dam. It is said that a wealthy merchant proposed to build a dam to consolidate the water body. ”

Ling Feng glanced at Shangguan Mausoleum, and then told all the news he had inquired about during the day.

"Could it be that you want to learn Dayu's way of controlling the water?" Shangguan Ling paused and looked at the visitor in surprise.

There is nothing wrong with building a dam to attract migrant workers. However, in the end, it is still too much to work the people and lose money.

After all, after such a trip, I am afraid it is also extremely troublesome.

First of all, even if so many migrant workers are used, a reasonable paperwork is needed. Secondly, the town has a small population, but there are thousands of people.

Among them, young adults account for six or seven percent of the total population, and it may be a huge burden to attract so many people at once.

Even if there is any opportunity to entertain them well, I am afraid it will be extremely troublesome. After all, it is not realistic for these people to rely on the so-called great good man for everything such as food and shelter.

In addition, looking at the current situation, few young adults have successfully returned. That is to say, most, if not all, of the people have gone and never returned.

In addition to the real sense of exhaustion and freezing to death for some reasons, there should be many other places that have been arranged.

Shangguan Ling felt that the disappearance of these migrant workers was also very debatable. After all, such a large number of people were lost or did not come back, and the government did not pursue it at all?

Who is behind this official government? This is really thought-provoking.

While Shangguan Ling was thinking about this, Ling Feng was also thinking about something. Although there are already many unclaimed or unidentified bodies on the side of the mass grave.

But in fact, when he visited the town today, he did not see a decent cemetery.

Where were the other deceased buried after their deaths? This point is also worth considering.

According to the coffin shopkeeper, there are still a very small number of people in the city who have bought coffins.
