Chapter 044: Since ancient times, there have been many disasters in the Central Plains, and people have died!
The matter of Landlord Liu's family doesn't seem to be a big deal.
It's nothing more than saying......
In recent times, the following grain needs to be used in large quantities in and out, and it needs to be recorded by hand.
Especially during this period of time, it is already late July, which is the day when the rice is ripe, and a large number of entry and exit records are needed!
Lu Xun knows how to read words......
Steward Wu also knew some about this before, so when he was short of manpower, he thought of Lu Xun and wanted him to help.
It's not much in a day's wages!
But I will give 500 Wen here.
It is estimated that it will take at least three days to get everything documented!
When Lu Xun heard Steward Wu's intention, he thought about it and agreed......
In the past, the original body was in Landlord Liu's house, which was considered to be good, but now that you need to use yourself, you can go and help.
Besides, there are many things here in Lujia Village now, and I don't need much of my own place.
I can still get out of it.
It's just that......
"Steward Wu, don't I remember that there is still a bookkeeper in the house? Why is there suddenly not enough manpower? ”
Landlord Liu's family has a bookkeeper.
Logically speaking, these should not be impossible to do......
"It's not the heavy rain that I had the other day......"
Hearing Lu Xun's words, Steward Wu sighed: "That heavy rain doesn't seem to have much impact on our southern side, but on the Central Plains side, it is now a drought and flood......
Since ancient times, there have been many disasters in the Central Plains.
Qingxi is located in the south, and it belongs to the realm of Yangzhou in the thirteen continents of the Tang Dynasty!
All the while, mountainous, hilly.
Although a heavy rain has brought some trouble, it is far from the word loss.
However, this heavy rain caused most of the Central Plains, especially the banks of the Yellow River, to completely fall......
Countless refugees are frantically emerging from both sides of the Yellow River.
Heard......
Even Kyoto has seen a large number of refugees pour in.
The newly enthroned emperor originally thought of starting a war against the border countries to stabilize his position in the imperial court.
At the same time, suppress those old ministers in the court.
As a result, because of this incident, he can only stop all his things now and go all out into the disaster relief......
"Will those refugees directly affect our Qingxi?"
Lu Hai asked with some worry when he heard this.
He doesn't understand anything.
Just know one thing, if these refugees emerge into Qingxi, then it will be much more dangerous at that time!
At the very least, you have to tell the women and children of the family not to wander around outside during the day.
"Not ...... yet"
Lu Xun shook his head: "They may enter the territory of Yangzhou, but when they come to our Qingxi, it's not enough, we are too far here......
Hearing Lu Xun's words, Steward Wu also looked at him with some surprise.
"What Lu Xun said is the same as what my lord said, and my lord also said so, he said, this refugee will not affect Qingxi's side.
But Jianye has been affected, and refugees have begun to appear in the past few days...... Even Anwu County has been affected.
This time, a large amount of food is actually ready to be donated to that side......"
Hear this.
Lu Xun was in awe,
"Old man Liu, are you going to donate your own food? Old man Liu is high-minded! ”
"How can there be any high righteousness or low righteousness?"
Steward Wu shook his head helplessly: "According to my master's words, that is, if you can do more, then you will do more."
Although the land of Qingxi was not affected this time, Qingxi has also been a place of many disasters since ancient times.
In October and November, there are often wind tires, and many people die every year, and maybe when they will be used in other people's places......
Now, it's nothing more than accumulating virtue in advance! ”
Wind tires are the saying on Qingxi's side.
In fact, it is also a typhoon in later generations......
Because it is located in the south of the coastal river, it is also affected by typhoons every year......
It's just that many people understand these truths, but like Mr. Liu, as soon as he knows that there are refugees pouring into Jian'an and Anwu, he donates a large amount of food finance, I'm afraid there are not many people!
Don't say anything else......
At this point, Lu Xun felt that he was inferior to others!
At least on my own conditions now, I can not starve to death, and I am already lucky to be alive, and I can still talk about this there!
"Then as the old man said, just take it as a virtue, this time the kid and Steward Wu will go over, just take it as an obligation, and there will be no reward!"
"You kid......"
Steward Wu smiled: "I used to be very stupid when I was in Liu's house, but now I can speak like this, and I don't even know that you can read and write, I heard that you are married?" ”
Hearing this, a sweet smile appeared on Lu Xun's face. 、
"Well, married......"
"Yes, your father used to be a person with status in Qingxi County, and even if you can't raise your father's reputation, you can't lose his face...... Take good care of your family and save more incense for your Lu family......"
Speaking of which......
Steward Wu thought for a while: "This time I went to Liu's house, you can't come back for the next two days, and there are just some things to remind you...... In the past few days, you have to tell the family members at home that after nightfall, don't go out of the house, and before going to bed at night, the concierge of the house should also be well guarded......"
Hearing Steward Wu's words, Lu Xun's face suddenly became serious: "Has something happened recently?" ”
Steward Wu's serious order must have happened!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have reminded him like this!
Lu Hai is also a little dignified, he just doesn't like to talk, but he is not a fool, so he can naturally hear the seriousness of these words!
"Most of the people in the county know about this today, but we didn't say much in the countryside, and I only heard the master talk about it last night...... The old man of the Zhang family in the county town was killed...... The body was not found until yesterday! ”
"Old man Zhang? Didn't you just come to our Lu family a few days ago? ”
Lu Hai was a little surprised......
Is this dead?
What about the toothbrush at home?
Isn't the Zhang family in trouble now?
"It's not that Zhang family, there are still a lot of Zhang family ...... in the county"
Steward Wu also knew that Zhang Qingsong came a few days ago.
This time, it was not Zhang Qingsong who died, it was another Zhang family.
Hearing this, Lu Hai breathed a sigh of relief, Lu Xun didn't speak, just thinking about something......
"Steward Wu, when did the old man Zhang who died......
"Not very clear......
Steward Wu shook his head: "According to what my master said, when I first found it, the corpse was stinking, and the whole body was swollen, and there was even foam or something, and it flowed all over the ground...... I guess I've been dead for a few days! ”
Lu Xun didn't say anything......
It's just that if you can find it, you can find Lu Xun's hand trembling slightly.
He thought......
If that's right, he already knows who killed them!
