Chapter 459: More than 36,000 taels

"Your Majesty, it's important!" Before Li Fusheng arrived, a panicked voice was the first to enter the imperial study.

At that time, Yan Chujing and Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry were summing up the rationality and practicability of various water conservancy projects in Dajing, and planned to draw experience from the flood in Pingxing Province and use a more long-term method to dredge up the flood problem.

He pointed to a big river that ran through the three prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River, and he was only halfway through his words when he was interrupted by Li Fusheng's voice.

Because of the Pingxing flood, Yan Chujing was not in a very good mood.

He received the latest list of casualties from the Ministry of Household Affairs this morning: Heavy rain fell so hard that it was only a little more than an hour before and after the flood broke the river embankment. In such a short period of time, many people who passed through commercial agriculture along the river did not have time to evacuate.

On the first day, more than 1,300 people were swept away by the flood and died on the spot.

There are also injured people, people whose property has been damaged and who have temporarily lost the ability to support themselves... In the land of three states, the total number of zeros and zeros adds up, and there are tens of thousands of people!

And that's just the beginning!

The rainy season has not yet passed, and the gap that was hastily plugged in the panic is likely to be washed away again in the next heavy rain. Qintian Jian reported that there are likely to be a few heavy rains in the south, so...

Not only has it caused trouble to the search and rescue team to rebuild the embankment, but the search and rescue team itself is also facing greater risks.

They are likely to risk their own lives while saving people.

The casualties may be increasing every moment, and all the departments of the imperial court are busy, and Yan Chujing is also tense up and is doing his best to deal with this matter.

However, Li Fusheng still ignores the rules at the moment and shouts in the imperial study!

Almost the moment he was interrupted, Yan Chujing's face sank.

When the Ministry of Industry Shangshu next to him saw his black face, he buried his head in the air, and he didn't dare to take a breath. He didn't dare to persuade the angry emperor to relax, so he could only give Li Fusheng a sympathetic look to him who hurriedly broke in.

However, Li Fusheng didn't seem to be worried that he would be punished by Yan Chujing.

After entering the door, he immediately presented the box and a booklet in his arms: "Your Majesty, don't blame the slave for panicking, it's really... Event!

"What you told the queen to go out of the palace is done!

"This is the first batch of arrears received by Niangniang, a total of 36,575 taels of silver! Because Niangniang thought that what Pingxing lacked was not only money, but also food, so she deliberately spent 10,000 taels of silver to order a batch of grain from a grain merchant who had industries in Jiangnan in Kyoto.

"Grain can be exchanged directly in Pingxing, Shunde, and Shaoning with bills.

After hearing that the imperial court was buying grain for disaster relief, the grain merchant also assured Niangniang that he could pick up grain at any time, and there would never be a shortage!

In this way, the initial disaster relief and pension problem in Pingxing has basically been solved!

"You see, these are the silver bills and the bills for the purchase of grain, and the accounts of those who have been written off with the imperial court. Niangniang specially ordered someone to send these things back to the palace as soon as possible, Your Majesty, take them quickly! ”

"Today alone, the queen has received more than 36,000 taels of silver?" Listening to Li Fusheng finish his words, most of the displeasure in Yan Chujing's heart suddenly dissipated, and instead there was a burst of doubt, "Such a fast speed, it's like... As soon as she came to the door, someone gave her the money directly? ”

The roster accounts were sorted out by his people, and they were directly handed over to Chi Xinian by his hands, and he naturally knew the details.
