Chapter Fifty-Six: Street Debate
A few people did not shy away from talking about it, and others also talked about it on the side.
"As soon as there was a fire in Xicheng, these families organized to save people, much faster than the government......
"This is all the industry of the Hongzhen Chamber of Commerce, didn't you hear what the shopkeeper Hu said, the Chamber of Commerce has arranged all the medical halls and pharmacies, and I look at the Kyoto Wei is really useless."
"Official? Those big officials are busy making money......"
……
The people on the street praised the Hongzhen Chamber of Commerce while saying that the government was not, Mo Ming's heart was big, and he immediately opened his mouth.
"I saw that Captain Kyoto sent a lot of people to put out the fire."
"Fighting fires or not saving people?" A scholar-like man snorted coldly. "I'm still busy saving those who are rich and powerful, and Kaiji is defeated by these people!"
Or a cynical scholar? Peach Blossom glanced at Yuan Jing and saw that his face was as usual without the slightest anger.
Mo Ming was in Yunfu, and his master was also a big man in the court, so this rebuttal made him unhappy at first.
"Did you see it with your own eyes or what's wrong, how do you know that you only save the rich and powerful?"
The scholar saw that Mo Ming did not relent, and raised his tone.
"Who are you, how can you be so nosy?"
"Hey, you're right, sir, my favorite thing is to be nosy......"
Mo Ming deliberately held the sword in his hand in front of him and gestured twice, where had the scholar seen this formation, and hurriedly took a few steps back.
"You, insulting Sven!"
Mo Ming looked at him as if he was afraid of playing.
"Sven? Gee...... I hate the word Sven the most. ”
As he spoke, he made a gesture to step forward.
"You, don't wield a knife or a gun."
The man stepped back again and again, and the people who were watching the excitement also pointed at Mo Ming.
Don't make a big deal about the situation, Peach Blossom wanted to call Mo Ming, but Yuan Jing, who was standing in place, suddenly opened his mouth.
"If you are a person who reads, how can you not know the truth that you need to see what you see, the government is its duty to save people, the chamber of commerce is kind to save people, and the territory of Kaiji is vast, if everyone thinks like you, where does the peace come from."
What does this kid want to mix?
Mo Ming raised his eyebrows, and immediately moved away, and the scholar couldn't help but puff up his chest again when he saw that there was a reasonable.
"Then what if even the government can't save people?"
Yuan Jing stood with his hands crossed, his posture was upright, and he was a tree with a graceful bearing.
"Rongcheng ten years, Jiatan County drought, Rongcheng fourteen years, Songhua County locust plague, Rongcheng nineteen years, Wendi County mountains and rocks moved, and then the plague broke out, if it is not for the national treasury to allocate grain, the government to save people, dig rivers, repair dams and Guti, how can you survive safely."
The justice he said was awe-inspiring, not even a reproach, but just a statement of the current facts.
"Then, what about the flood of the Mo River, look at the homeless people outside the city!"
The scholar said loudly, and Yuan Jing raised his eyebrows.
"The Mohe River is flooded, the local prices are soaring, the people are not happy, there are businessmen hoarding grain, sitting on the ground and raising prices, the government sends people to negotiate behind closed doors, after the official grain is eaten, the people can only go to the royal capital, if the royal capital is open to the door, how to carry these people, have you ever thought about it?"
The person who asked this question was speechless, and the man opened his mouth wide and pointed at Yuan Jing, who didn't seem to know what to say for a long time, and lowered his hand a little dejectedly.
"If you have the heart to save the world and get on the official career early, you don't know what the court is planning, and how do you know that there is no plan."
"The current imperial court is controlled by Gongsun Hou and the Yun family, what can I do if I go!"
The scholar said angrily.
Peach Blossom scratched her head innocently, how could she talk about the Yun family again, it was really embarrassing in this situation.
"I don't even want to give it a try, the discussion just now is meaningless, and it is a pity that I am a well-educated person, but I have no heart to serve the country......"
Yuan Jing turned around and left after saying this, and Peach Blossom didn't want to stay longer, so he left, leaving the scholar standing in place, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Brother Yuanjing, does the imperial court really have a way to deal with the homeless?"
After walking about a hundred paces, Peach Blossom approached Yuan Jing and asked secretly, Yuan Jing shook his head solemnly.
"Nope."
"What was that just now?"
"I always have to maintain some of the things I am doing, otherwise it is really unlikely, there must be other solutions for the people of Mohe, but it is not easy to do a foolproof solution."
Yuan Jing replied, and Peach Blossom realized that Yuan Jing looked young and old, but in fact, he still had the heart of a young man.
After Peach Blossom finished asking, she deliberately took two steps towards Yuanjing.
"Mo Ming, you go to the Ruyun Inn first to see if anyone is there."
She said and winked at Mo Ming, Mo Ming immediately understood what Miss meant, it seems that this kid and Miss are not very familiar with each other, Miss has to guard against him, thinking of this, Mo Ming instantly became much happier.
Ruyun Inn is still being repaired, there are three lanterns hanging outside the door, Mo Ming stepped forward and knocked on the door, and Xiang Nian yawned and opened the door.
"Who?"
When he opened the door, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, why did Mo Ming come tonight......
"Miss is behind, and there are troublesome guys, you know......"
Xiang Nian is not a person who can't observe words and looks, Mo Ming only said two words, and he immediately understood.
"What a knock on the door so late!"
He deliberately answered loudly, Mo Ming smiled angrily, and took out the ingot of gold.
"Borrow a precious place."
"Hey, uncle, please."
Xiang Nian took the gold and immediately changed his face, respectfully invited Mo Ming to enter the door, Mo Ming was naturally not polite, he walked in as soon as he pushed the door, looked around and walked out, and when the peach blossoms arrived, Mo Ming was already standing outside the door like a door god.
"Honored guests, please."
Xiang Nian greeted, Peach Blossom nodded thoughtfully, and Yuan Jing stood behind her and looked down at the interaction of several people and smiled.
"You don't have to be here, stay away from us for a pot of tea."
Mo Ming waved his hand and commanded.
"Okay!"
Xiang Nian quickly served a pot of tea, and then withdrew from the hall, and Yuan Jing and a few people sat around the table.
"This inn looks like it's still being renovated......"
Yuan Jing looked at the slightly messy ground with wooden stakes and said, Peach Blossom took a sip of tea.
"I heard that the water ran out a few days ago, and it probably hasn't been completely repaired yet."
Yuan Jing was thoughtful.
"Ruyun Inn, it is strange to open outside the city gate, and a Wenhua meeting is well known to the king, and it is an interesting place."
Peach Blossom was stunned for a moment, Yuan Jing also knew about this?
"Xiao Yan!"
At this moment, a man dressed as a soldier ran in outside the door, and Xiao Yan, who was already staring at her in a daze and was about to fall asleep, suddenly woke up.
"Daddy!"
The soldier hugged Xiao Yan who ran over.
"Daddy's back."
He pulled Xiao Yan over and looked at a few people in the store, none of these people knew each other, only the girl.
"Thank you, girl."
He bowed in thanks, and Peach Blossom stood up.
"When you come, the fire in the castle tower has been extinguished?"
"Yes, the fire is all gone."
"What about the people?"
Yuan Jing asked, the soldier was a little puzzled, but he still answered honestly.
"It's all been properly settled."
"That's right."
He suddenly remembered the corner card, and Peach Blossom reached out to stop him.
"No need, meeting is fate, Xiao Yan is an obedient child, just give it to her, if you have difficulties in the future, you can go there."
How did you give it away? The soldiers were shocked, and secretly happy.
