I had to tell them to do it.

However, from this point, it can also be seen that Qi Moxiao is a real Mingjun, not only came to Weifu in person, but also did not have any requirements in terms of life.

There have been people from above before, and they have been complaining that the environment and food in this place are too bad, so he thinks that Qi Moxiao and the others must get them some delicious food when they come from afar, and they must not treat them badly.

But what he never expected was that Qi Moxiao and the others were so diligent and thrifty.

This surprised him a little.

Instantly, he felt that the officials who had come before were all here to eat and drink, and there were no useful straw bales.

Compared with Qi Moxiao, they can't be compared.

Qi Moxiao learned about the situation in this place with the county order, as well as the excavation of the river on the other side of the canal.

Originally, it was not the county order that was responsible, but the imperial court specially sent someone to build it, so the county order was not very clear about this, so he could only tell Qi Moxiao and them what he knew.

Yun Zhuyue proposed to go to the canal to see the situation on the spot, and the county order originally wanted to go with him, but was stopped by Qi Moxiao and them.

Qi Moxiao said: "You are the parent official of this place, there must be a lot of things to be busy every day, so you don't need to go with us, just go over and see for yourself, if you follow us over, it will be too ostentatious, and it may cause us to not see the real situation here." ”

"We came here on purpose to see how the officials sent from the capital dealt with the affairs of the canal, and if what we saw was a false impression, then we ran away in vain."

The county magistrate understood the truth in this, so he nodded and agreed, and sent someone to take Qi Moxiao and them to the other side of the canal.

When Qi Moxiao and the others arrived at the canal, they found that the excavation of the river here was extremely dangerous, which could easily cause soil erosion and easily endanger the safety of the people in the future.

At that moment, he did not hesitate to call a halt and stop the workers working here.

They had done a good deed, but what they didn't expect was that what was waiting for them was the mourning of the people.

A bold man brought someone to their place to make trouble: "Why are you asking us to stop work? The above has already put a lot of pressure on us, and we just want to complete the project on this side of the canal as soon as possible. ”

Other people also chimed in: "That's it, there are still a lot of things to do here, we work overtime every day just to complete the project here as soon as possible, who are you?" On what basis to make trouble? ”

"Hurry up and get out of the way, we have to continue working, otherwise we can't afford this responsibility after the people above blame us, we are now the reigning emperor in a hurry, and if we offend the emperor, we will be killed!"

Qi Moxiao couldn't help frowning, a little surprised by the reaction of these people, and couldn't help but ask: "Don't you know that your current excavation and pile are dangerous?" There is a high chance that it will cause soil erosion in this place, and it will harm yourselves in the future! ”

The man who took the lead sneered: "Since you understand it so well, then you go and tell the emperor, what's the use of telling us, I just do what I tell from above, I can't complete the project here within the specified time, all of us have to lose our heads, and we may not get paid, and now we can't take care of anything, where will we care if it can harm us?" ”

People also shouted that they hoped that Qi Moxiao and them would get out of the way and not stop their work.

Qi Moxiao asked the person who took the lead to a quieter place, and then asked him a few questions.

"Who told you that this was the Emperor's arrangement? How did the people above arrange it for you? Why haven't you found even the most basic of this? If there is soil erosion in the future, the impact on you will be very serious! ”

He said this very seriously, because the person who took the lead was now the only one of them, and his arrogance was extinguished at once, and he was not as arrogant as before.

said honestly: "We can't do anything about it, we have to work overtime with the emperor's holy decree, if we can't complete the work within the specified time, the people above will not pay us." ”

"Therefore, we ordinary people can only work day and night and dare not rest at all, many people have lost their lives because they can't stand this work system, and the people above can't see our sacrifice at all, and will only ask us to work quickly."

"But they never thought about whether we could have enough to eat, and they didn't provide us with any food at all, and then we protested, so they arranged a meal of clear soup and little water for us."

"I can't fill my stomach at all, where do I get the strength to work? But when we think that we can't get paid, we have no other way but to keep working in good spirits, and if you suddenly stop us from work, all of us will be dragged down in our work progress, and we won't get paid at that time! ”

"If you're from above, then I beg you to help us and give us a little more time! I've been working for three days and three nights in a row, and if I continue like this, I can't guarantee that I can continue to live. ”

After he finished speaking, he reached out and wiped his tears, his heart was in pain, but there was no other way.

Qi Moxiao's fists clenched next time.

He was glad he was here now, otherwise it was unimaginable what the workers here would be facing!

The officials here are really inappropriate! They didn't understand the suffering of the people at all, they promised to complete the project within the specified time, but Qi Moxiao ignored how the officials above would squeeze the people below!

Thankfully, this time he came.

At that moment, he patted the man on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I was indeed sent by someone above, and I will help deal with the matter here, and there will be no problem with your salary!" ”

Qi Moxiao's promise obviously didn't play any role for that person, after all, for him, he didn't know what Qi Moxiao's identity was.

If he wasn't able to speak in this place, it would have been a disastrous disastrous if he had slowed down their work.

All their previous efforts have been in vain!

Because such a situation was something that Qi Moxiao didn't expect at the beginning, the situation suddenly fell into an impasse, and Qi Moxiao didn't know how to deal with this matter.

It's just that he held back the anger in his stomach and said to Yun Zhuyue: "Those people dare to act so boldly!" Don't take people's lives seriously at all! They promised me that it could be completed in a short time, and I thought they would send a large number of workers over, but I didn't expect it to be a bottomless oppression! ”

Yun Zhuyue was also a little shocked, such a difficult job, the officials here actually just gave them clear soup and little water, so how could their bodies stand it?

Even prison inmates wouldn't dare to abuse them like this!

Yun Zhuyue could only comfort him as much as possible: "We will find a way to deal with this matter, don't be angry first, anger can't solve the key, these officials do have some uncontrollable methods, in fact, I am also quite angry, but anger can't solve any problems, I think you should also know this very well." ”

"Instead of getting angry here, it's better to think about how to deal with it, let's go over there first to see the situation, if we have to stop work, then stop these people's behavior in time, and punish those officials above!"

"They hold such a high salary, but in the end they are not at all human, and they are not at all considerate of the people below, and we must give an account to these workers! You can't deduct their wages! ”

"They earn all their hard-earned money, so we will divide the money we received from Hualiu Lane and give them more wages, they will definitely work harder after they have higher wages, but we must ensure their rest!"

"Our own work must not be left behind, but we can invest more workers to complete the work here, as for the workers here have been working hard for too long, they must not continue to be squeezed, because their bodies will really be in a big condition!"

Qi Moxiao also understood this, so he agreed to what Yun Zhuyue said without hesitation: "Just do as you say, first increase a part of the wages for the workers, and distribute a part of it first, so that they can work more at ease, and by the way, give them two days off and let them rest." ”

"With higher wages, there will definitely be more workers who volunteer to work here, and then we don't have to worry about finding people at all, and those officials above just want to do the most work with the least money, so there is a shortage of personnel in this place."

"These people are forced to come to this place because they are helpless, so they choose to come to this place to work, and if their most basic physical condition cannot be guaranteed, we will be completely in vain this time."

Yun Zhuyue said with a serious face: "The officials of this place must not let them go so easily, it is better to punish them in front of these workers, and let the workers of this place understand that we can be the master, and they will trust us more." ”

"When the time comes, we will send some people over to check the situation here, if we can continue, then continue, if we can't continue, then stop in time, so as to prevent more things from happening in the future!"
