The meeting with the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan is just a small episode in Lin Sha's trip to Jiaxing......

After the Lin clan settled down, he politely refused the kindness of the Lin clan patriarch to take him into the Shilin circle in Jiaxing, packed up his baggage and returned directly to Niujia Village.

At this time, the atmosphere in Lin'an also began to be tense, and the epidemic that broke out from Suzhou, with a large number of fleeing people running around, has also begun to appear in the Lin'an territory.

"Mr. Linsha, you're back!"

The atmosphere in Niujia Village is also a little strange, the aunts who originally liked to chat and gossip have disappeared, and it is deserted in the daytime. As soon as Lin Sha came back, the village was hurrying over, with a warm and flattering face.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Sha received Li Zheng a little strangely, and the two of them sat down at the small dining table in the side room, and he asked curiously.

"Sir, you don't know, there is a sudden epidemic in the Lin'an realm, which can scare everyone enough!"

Li Zheng waved his hand and poured out a cup of tea for himself, and said with a grateful face: "Several villages around are sick, and only Niujia Village has made arrangements in advance, which has avoided a catastrophe!" ”

"Oh, have all those arrangements worked?"

Lin Sha's face flashed with joy, his efforts were not in vain, which made him feel satisfied.

"Yes, yes, sir's arrangement has worked!"

Niujia Village is nodding again and again with a smile on his face, and rejoicing: "Except for Niu Er Mazi's daughter-in-law, although she was sick and recovered after being sent to the mountain for a few days, there are no other cases in the village!" ”

"That's good!"

Lin Sha nodded with relief, and then looked at him very suspiciously, and said strangely: "Li Zheng is in such a hurry to find me." That's not all, is it? ”

"This ......"

Li Zheng looked embarrassed, rubbed his hands and looked embarrassed.

"There's something but it doesn't hurt to say. I will help as much as I can! ”

Lin Sha smiled slightly, and said in his heart, if it's too difficult, don't blame me for being powerless.

"Don't be embarrassed, don't be embarrassed......"

Li Zheng hurriedly waved his hand. Naturally, he heard the meaning of Lin Sha's words, thought about it and said embarrassedly: "Mr. has helped a lot this time, and the village can be safe and sound now......

"Let's get to the point!"

Lin Sha waved his hand, interrupting Li Zheng's praise and saying that it was neither light nor serious.

"It's good to talk about the key points, the main thing is to close the village and strengthen the vigilance to prevent the introduction of epidemics from outside, but it also basically cuts off the livelihood of the villagers!"

Li Zheng nodded again and again, sighed and looked embarrassed: "Now is the time when spring plowing is not coming, this day is really difficult!" ”

"The Lin'an government doesn't have any relief measures?"

Lin Sha raised his eyebrows, and his heart sank slightly.

"How can it?"

Rizheng shook his head and smiled bitterly. waved his hand and looked helpless: "That is, Mr. said this in person, the government has no relief measures at all, on the contrary, this year's taxes cannot be reduced at all, this day is impossible to pass, it is difficult!" ”

Saying that, he looked sad and worried, and said helplessly: "Besides, there is an epidemic in the Lin'an land boundary right now, and the government is blocking the road everywhere, but if there is an epidemic, regardless of the situation, completely besiege that area first." Regardless of the lives of the people inside, how can you expect the government to come forward to help? ”

Lin Sha's heart sank, he didn't expect the Southern Song Dynasty government to degenerate to such an extent, and its ruthlessness was really outrageous. Forcibly suppress the annoyance and unhappiness in your heart. He glanced at Li Zheng and asked in a deep voice: "What regulations do you have there, I will definitely not stand idly by if I can help!" ”

"Hehe, I'm sorry......"

Li Zheng rubbed his hands, and his old face was slightly red. An embarrassed and uneasy look.

"If you have something to say, there's nothing to be embarrassed about!"

Lin Sha is really angry and funny. Xindao, if you are really embarrassed, you will come to the door like this?

"That's right!"

Li Zheng glanced at Lin Sha cautiously. Seeing that he didn't have an unhappy look, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said embarrassedly: "Although the people in the village outside have a difficult livelihood, they don't have the courage to go out to do things, but they can't live this day without a livelihood, I don't hear that Mr. has a relationship in Lin'an......"

The more he spoke, the quieter he became, and in the end he was almost inaudible, and he secretly looked at Lin Sha's expression while muttering to himself, with a cautious posture for fear of angering Lin Sha.

"I do have a lot of literati friends in Lin'an, what do you want to say?"

Lin Sha was confused, and waved his hand impatiently: "What does this have to do with the livelihood of the villagers?" ”

"I think, I want to ......"

Li Zheng's old face was flushed, and seeing that Lin Sha's face was becoming more and more impatient, he finally gritted his teeth and said what he thought in his heart: "I want to ask Mr. to help explore the way, see if I can send the vegetables, meat and fish produced in the village directly to the city to sell?" ”

After speaking, he looked apprehensive, for fear that Lin Sha would suddenly break out.

The literati of this era pay attention to gentlemen and cooks, and they look down on businessmen and don't want to be easily provoked, Li Zheng knows that his thoughts are a little embarrassing, but he is forced to say it because of the livelihood of the villagers, for fear that Lin Sha will be angry and leave with his sleeves, he is ready to accept a storm-like reprimand, but Lin Sha, a qualified gentleman, must not be angry.

"Ha, I thought something was wrong!"

Unexpectedly, Lin Sha's reaction was beyond Li Zheng's expectations, not only did he not get angry but also chuckled, which made Li Zheng, who was mentally tense for a while, even more uneasy, and said that Mr. Lin Sha wouldn't be angry, right?

Of course, Lin Sha was not confused, he said with a kind smile on his face: "I didn't say it earlier in this little thing, so I thought there was something really embarrassing, don't worry, this matter is on me, and it will not disappoint Li Zheng and the villagers!" ”

"This and this, sir, is this agreed?"

Li Zheng listened well and was stunned for a while, his face was sluggish, and he stammered in disbelief.

"Naturally, people take food as the sky, and it can be seen that eating is a big thing for ordinary people!"

Lin Sha's face was serious and scholarly, and he said with righteousness: "Li Zheng and the people of the village are in order to survive, what is there to say, although I have been reading for a few years, my brain is not pedantic to the extent of not eating the fireworks of the world, this matter is wrapped up in me, just wait for the good news!" ”

"That's good, that's good......"

Li Zheng was full of ecstasy and said well, a big stone in his heart fell to the ground and his expression was relaxed, and his gratitude to Lin Sha was even more overflowing, and he thought that if the vegetables, meat and eggs produced in the village could be sold directly to Lin'an City, the income of the villagers would be greatly increased, and the future would be better and better, and the current livelihood difficulties could also be overcome!

Lin Sha is a standard man of action, and since he agreed to Li Zheng's request, he will naturally get things done as quickly as possible. However, before he could leave for Lin'an to contact friends, he had to perform his duties as a private school teacher repeatedly.

On the day of his return, he packed up the salute and worked non-stop, visiting the students' families one by one, checking the students' self-study progress during this time, encouraging the lazy ones to be reluctant and diligent, and at the same time directly opening a small lecture hall at the student's home to answer doubts and assign new homework.

Although the village was in a hurry, he didn't dare to urge Lin Sha to act quickly, he only quietly revealed the news that Lin Sha was willing to help, so that the villagers would not make too much noise, and it would not be good to annoy Mr. Lin Sha.

Three days later, full of the ardent expectations of the villagers of Niujia Village, Lin Sha rushed to Lin'an by car.

With his internal strength cultivation through the twelve canons at this time, as well as the strength of the internal fist, the body is extremely strong, so naturally there is no need to worry about a small epidemic infection, I heard that the master of internal strength died of injuries, and I really haven't heard that a good hand with internal strength died because of the epidemic.

Besides, with Lin Sha's medical skills, it can naturally be seen that this epidemic is not terrible, but it is just that the improper handling of the government has caused civil unrest, and there is really no need to worry about these with his strong physique.

Of course, this is just his thoughts, others are not so open-minded and broad-minded, there are not a few refugees from all over the country who fled along the way, all of them are panicked and frightened, and there is a restless atmosphere and mood in the air.

Like Jiaxing, there are checkpoints set up by officials at major intersections and bridges, and rich and noble families naturally pass through easily, and ordinary people are all rejected from the checkpoints unless they have official relationships, no matter how they cry and cry to no avail.

Lin Sha has a child certificate officially issued by the official school case, and he is another scholar with an extraordinary demeanor, and it is not difficult for the official to receive a small benefit along the way, and it is easy for him to pass the customs and break through the card and go straight to Lin'an City.

The city of Lin'an is still bustling and lively, as if it has not been affected by the spread of the epidemic in the outside world at all, of course, the flow of people on the streets is not as dense as before, and the number of officials who come and go to inspect has also increased.

These have nothing to do with Lin Sha, he directly found a few wealthy acquaintances in the family, and got their warm reception, an elegant banquet is naturally indispensable, and after eating and drinking enough to talk about poetry, Lin Sha bluntly said the purpose of this trip.

Those gentlemen were very face-saving, and directly called the shopkeeper of the restaurant or the housekeeper at home, and after explaining the matter easily, they took Lin Sha to participate in the Wenhui to have fun.

People give face like this, Lin Sha is not good to do too much, so he has to let go of his mood and have fun together, and he has recovered the memory of several lifetimes, both his vision and words are not the same as before, and he casually said a few small allusions, which caused a cadre of scholars to laugh again and again, and praised Lin Sha's level has made great progress.

I had fun until about two watches, and a group of scholars staggered out of the well-known local green building, Lin Sha was also full of alcohol, but his expression was quite sober, and he felt that this kind of drunken and gold-obsessed days were really unbearable, and his heart said that he would quickly run away early tomorrow morning and not mess around with this group of merry scholars.

As the car passed by a certain street from the palace, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a familiar crippled figure leaping across the roof, followed by several silhouettes chasing after him...... (To be continued......)
