Chapter 172: Waiting for help

Surprised, Zhang Changwei had to sigh, this treasure lord is not only golden, but also a real willing to spend money.

So he hurriedly gathered his heart and said, "Thank you, county lord." The humble duty must bring the words of the county lord. ”

Wang Jibao nodded at him and said, "There is labor." ”

In Wang Jibao's cognition, although 50,000 taels is more, it is definitely not as important as the safety of her brother. She is still willing to pay for this money.

At the same time, although Wang Yuxun, who was trapped in Linjiang Village, was calm on his face, his heart was definitely not as ordinary as he showed on his face.

He knew there would be danger in his journey. But as an official of the imperial court, as a local prefect, how could he retreat after learning the news of the disaster of the people? Otherwise, you will be sorry for your conscience.

When Wang Yuxun was thinking about countermeasures, Langmo stepped forward and said, "My lord, Liu honestly asks to see you." ”

Liu Laoshi is the family where Wang Yuxun lives now.

After Wang Yuxun led his men into Linjiang Village, he found that most of the villagers' houses had been crushed. At the same time, many people were crushed to death by collapsed houses.

Crying, shouting, and scolding God. That scene is simply not described by the word "miserable".

Not all the villagers stood there crying and complaining. Some of them have already taken action.

Some people are actively trying to save people who are crushed under their houses, some are actively trying to save their belongings, some are looking for a place to house their relatives, and so on.

They are trying to save themselves or help others.

Seeing such a scene, Wang Yuze hurriedly ordered his guards to go to help the villagers save people and things, and help them find a way to resettle the villagers.

After a day of hard work, they successfully rescued many villagers.

But in the evening, they received news that made the villagers despair.

That is, because the snow is thick and cannot be stored on the mountain, the snow that has slipped on the mountains on both sides of Linjiang Village has completely blocked the mountain roads in front of and behind the village. If you want to get out of the village now, it's simply impossible.

This is undoubtedly adding insult to the woes for the villagers here.

Wang Yuxun, a prefect, can only look at the sky and sigh here.

Seeing that more and more villagers can't find a place to take refuge, there is no need for many cold days, as long as it is one night, I am afraid that I don't know how many people will freeze to death. Wang Yuxun made a decisive decision to requisition the local wealthy family, Liu Laoshi's home. His house was built of bricks and tiles, so it did not suffer much damage, and he was one of the few families here that was not affected by the disaster.

Langmo carried Wang Yuxun's prefect's seal, and went to call the door with a group of guards.

Unbeknownst to him, Liu Laoshi asked several of his subordinates to guard the door and not open the door to anyone. At this time, he chose to protect himself and did not care about the life and death of the villagers.

The corners of Wang Yuxun's mouth turned up slightly, and he coldly ordered: "Smash the door." ”

"Yes."

Before the guards smashed it a few times, the subordinates of Liu Laoshi's house guarding the door were frightened and took the initiative to open the door.

They knew that the people who were passing through had helped many of the villagers. But I don't know where they came from. But it's not an ordinary family. Each of the group carried a sword or something like a weapon behind them.

One of the leading janitors asked tremblingly, "I don't know what the masters have to order?" ”

Lang Mo then took out Wang Yuxun's seal and said loudly to these people: "Quickly call your master to come to see our lord." My family is the new prefect of Linbei Prefecture, Wang Yuxun. ”

"Prefect? Then you are the officials? Oh. Wait a minute, a few officials. The little ones are called for you. When the subordinate who was guarding the door heard that he was an official, he spread his legs and went inside.

As he ran, he shouted, "Master, come quickly." Our new prefect is here! ”

Liu Laoshi didn't believe it at first, and shouted loudly: "Don't talk nonsense there." How could the prefect come at this time? Not to mention the prefect, even the county lord will not come over to take a look. ”

"Sir, come quickly. It's the group of people who passed by today to help the villagers. They are really people sent by the prefect. And the prefect is also among them. The doorkeeper snorted in return.

"No, it won't. The prefect actually came to us? Liu Laoshi still asked in a tone of disbelief.

"Go quickly, don't offend the officials. Otherwise, don't say it's small, I'm afraid that even your life will not be guaranteed. The subordinate urged anxiously.

When has it been, haven't you seen that the group of people are carrying swords? Is this something that their little subordinates can resist?

"Okay, sir, I'll go." Wang Laoshi really believed it now, and hurriedly cleaned himself up and went to see Wang Yuxun.

When Liu Laoshi came to Wang Yuxun, when he saw his outfit, he knew that it was absolutely not fake.

Looking at the jade pendant on someone's waist, I'm afraid I can buy their entire village.

"Grass farmer Liu honestly visits the prefect." Liu Laoshi hurriedly bowed to Wang Yuxun.

"You're the big guy here, Liu Laoshi?" Wang Yuxun didn't scream, and asked lightly.

"It's the grass people. I don't know why adults are looking for small ones? "Liu Laoshi has a solid family, and he studied for a few years in his early years.

"Your house has been temporarily requisitioned by the government. After that, all expenses were paid by the prefect's yamen. Wang Yuxun didn't talk nonsense with him, and directly named him.

"What? Good. Isn't it just to greet adults and a few officials? No problem. "Liu Laoshi is not a wicked person, at least he has not done anything to harm the village except for some slamming the door. But as soon as I heard that there were so many officials to be called, and there was a prefect among them, this person's heart was dripping blood, no, it should be said that it was bleeding.

How much money will it cost! said that the prefect yamen would give money later, who would believe it!

Wang Yuxun nodded his head, and then sprinkled another handful of salt on Liu Laoshi's already injured heart: "Not only us, but also the villagers who were affected by the disaster. ”

"What?" Liu Laoshi couldn't believe his ears.

Wang Yuxun didn't bother to talk nonsense with this person, his patience would only be used on a very few, or even a very few people. So he turned his head and made the ink a color.

Lang Mo hurriedly stepped forward and said to Liu honestly: "I don't know if you understand the truth of cold lips and teeth?" The villagers in this vicinity have all been affected, but you and a few families are intact. In order to survive, how can those villagers watch your family get better? When the time comes, will a few of you be able to resist the villagers of an entire village? It's better to take the initiative and solve the difficulties in front of the villagers first, and then make a good reputation. Besides, in the end, this expense will be paid by our prefect's yamen, what are you worried about? ”

Liu Laoshi's eyes were full of bones. He knew that what he said was right, but he couldn't bear to spend so much silver!

Wang Yuxun saw that this person was inking, so he took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels from his purse and handed it to the ink. At a glance, he understood the intentions of his own adults.

It's nothing more than smashing it with silver.

Liu Laoshi saw that there was money to collect, so he agreed to Wang Yuxun's request.

But within two days, Liu Laoshi regretted it. This snow covers the mountain, even if there is silver, he has nowhere to spend it! Not to mention that the food in his family is decreasing day by day. It won't be a few days, and even he and his family will probably have no food to eat. He can't do good deeds to starve himself and his family.

So, I wanted to talk to Wang Yuxun.

Before Liu Laoshi could speak, Wang Yuxun knew that this person was here to cry poor. If it was normal, Wang Yuxun really didn't bother to pay attention to this person.

But this time is different. If you want the villagers and their group to not freeze to death or starve to death, you must now rely on the person in front of you to detain and search.

"What? What do you want to discuss with this government? Wang Yuxun asked lightly.

"That," Wang honestly knew that the following words would make the prefect angry, but in order to ensure that his family would not starve to death, even if he was very afraid of the handsome man in front of him, he had to mention it.

"That prefect, so many days have passed. Our small family can't resist such a big consumption of so many people! Seeing that we are almost out of rice and grain, do you think you can think of another way first? ”

Wang Yuxun raised his eyebrows and said, "Method? It's not that there isn't. ”

Wang honestly asked boldly: "Then, what is the solution?" ”

If the method proposed by Lord Wang is feasible, he will no longer have to open his mouth to offend the prefect of the people.

Wang Yuxun immediately spit out a word lightly: "Wait." ”

"Wait?" What is this called?

"Just wait. When my sister sees that I haven't returned home for a long time, she will definitely come to look for us. Wang Yuxun just believed that Wang Jibao would come to look for him. And he also believed that with his sister's ingenuity, he would definitely come up with a good way to save him from his predicament.

"But my lord, we don't have much rice at all now. may not wait for Ling Mei's arrival and help. Liu Laoshi didn't believe that Lord Wang's sister and a female generation could help them at all.

Wang Yuxun hooked the corners of his lips slightly, and said slowly: "Isn't your cellar still full of grain?" Enough is enough. ”

"Well, that's to keep my family for the winter. If this is taken out to the big guys, our family will not survive. Liu Laoshi was about to cry.

How could this lord even know about his cellar?

Wang Yuxun did not answer Liu Laoshi's words directly, but said with a very happy expression: "Don't worry, I'm afraid we won't need the grain in your cellar." ”

Liu Laoshi obviously felt how happy the prefect Wang was when he said this. And he could also see that this time it was the prefect's heartfelt smile.

This slight smile is afraid that even the sun and moon in the sky will become dim. If this is a young woman here, wouldn't it hook all the souls?

It's very good.
