Chapter 69 There are homeless people again
However, Shen Jingcheng didn't bother too much, after all, it was someone's shop, and he was not qualified to say anything.
What's more, he was already planning to move out of here in the future, and he didn't want to make trouble at this juncture.
When he got home, Shen Jingcheng told Gu Jin about the affairs of the county, Gu Jin nodded very understandingly, and then found a jar of those bath powders and put them in, sealed them and kept them for his own use.
Since then, the two of them have put this matter behind them and started reading with peace of mind, except for Shen Jingcheng who goes to Qingzhou every other month, basically nothing happens.
Even Gu Ling'er, who came to report every day, finally disappeared because the weather was getting colder and colder, and she no longer came to the door.
The two of them spent a year peacefully, and after the first month, Shen Jingcheng went to Qingzhou again, and came back to tell Gu Jin that the stone materials had almost been mined, and the craftsmen who built the house had already been found, and they could start work after the temperature came up and the surface thawed.
Gu Jin was very happy to hear it, she would soon stop living a bad life, and she didn't have to see Gu Ling'er who started reporting here again when the weather was warm.
But who would have thought, a few days after Gu Jin was happy, he suddenly saw the shadow of the homeless people around the village.
I heard that the upper reaches of the Yellow River in Zhongzhou Province froze and opened the river, while the downstream rivers were still frozen, and the ice and river water gushed from the upper reaches and there was nowhere to go, and the embankments on both sides of the river were washed away in an instant.
When this happened, it was night, and the people on both sides of the river had to flee in a hurry, not to mention food, and some people didn't even have time to put on thick clothes.
Gu Jin looked at those homeless people who had nothing to do and their faces were purple, and instantly remembered the events of the year before last, and his nerves collapsed suddenly.
Seeing this, Shen Jingcheng immediately rang the bronze bell on the tree in the West Village, and after telling the people of the West Village the seriousness of the matter, the people of the West Village, who had stopped patrolling for a year, immediately started patrolling again.
However, the matter was not over here, as the days passed and there were more and more displaced people, Lin Hu came to the door without warning.
"Shen Gongzi, when you were still the lieutenant chief, you did a very good job of resettlement of displaced people for disaster relief, and now that you are the chief of grain, you will definitely do better than before, but I don't know how many displaced people you want to resettle, or how much food disaster relief you want?"
There is no room for maneuver in these words, just like the matter of relocating the victims, Shen Jingcheng has been; Agreed.
However, Shen Jingcheng was not so easy to fool, and pretended to be puzzled and said, "Lord Lin said that he laughed, disaster relief and resettlement of displaced people are all government affairs, and I am white, how dare I overstep my bounds."
"Hey, the affairs of the government naturally don't have to worry about Shen Gongzi." Lin Hu waved his hand and said, "You just need to say how much food you want to give out to help the disaster and how many displaced people, otherwise, how about resettlement or half of the relief food?"
Shen Jingcheng's eyes were slightly cold when he heard this.
He is not stupid, so he can naturally hear that this is a hardcore, whether he wants to settle or not, whether he wants to provide disaster relief or not, he has to do it.
"Is this what Lord Lin meant, or does we mean Lord Zhixian?" Lin Jingcheng asked expressionlessly.
"Naturally, it's your Shen Gongzi, Shen Daliang's meaning, my adults and I admire Shen Gongzi's move very much." Lin Hu said and pretended to hug his fist at Shen Jingcheng with admiration.
"Lord Lin, is this true?" Shen Jingcheng looked at him quietly.
"Seriously." Lin Hu looked solemn.
When the words fell, Shen Jingcheng's eyes were sharp, and Lin Hu looked at him quietly, without any compromise.
Just when Lin Hu thought that Shen Jingcheng would be annoyed and angry, he unexpectedly saw that the sharpness in his eyes suddenly softened and became extremely tired.
I saw that Shen Jingcheng seemed to have a headache and covered his head for a long time, and then sighed helplessly.
"I wonder how many homeless people there are in the county? How many young people are there, and how many are there old and weak, women and children?" Shen Jingcheng seemed to be asking very weakly.
"I haven't counted yet, but there are probably a few hundred." When Lin Hu saw him ask about this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly reported a vague number of people.
For a moment, he thought this kid was going to beat himself.
"Then you can let it
If you are willing to work, come here, if you don't want to work, forget it, I don't have so much ability to support idlers." Shen Jingcheng said and took a deep breath, and continued: "Lord Lao is tired of opening a way for me, my family doesn't have so much food, I have to go out and buy it."
"Yes." Lin Hu agreed very happily, for fear that Shen Jingcheng would regret it in the next second, so he quickly got up and said goodbye: "Then I'll leave first, and I'll let someone lead the way when I go back."
Shen Jingcheng raised his eyes and looked at him, but did not get up, but seemed to have something to say but it was difficult to speak, Lin Hu didn't care about his faux pas, turned his head and left.
Actually, he couldn't help it.
He is nominally the master of the county, but in fact he is He Zhilin's domestic servant, just because he knows a few words, He Zhilin is not used here, so he is released as a slave and let him be an errand in the county.
Kehe Zhilin said that it is very good to serve, as long as you don't offend him and don't get in the way of his business, he doesn't care about everything, but it's hard to serve and it's hard to serve here, because he really doesn't care about everything. Even the ordinary affairs of the county can be ignored, let alone those disaster victims and immigrants?
That's it, He Zhilin was ashamed to say that he had handed over these important tasks to him.
But what can he do with a master book?
If you want money, you don't have money, you want people, you don't have food.
But there is no way, his family is in the He family, so he can only bite the bullet.
What if immigrants come? Draw a way for them, and fend for themselves.
What happens when refugees come? Let those rich families provide food and silver, and how many people can be fed is fate.
However, this refugee resettlement and disaster relief was not his idea, but He Zhilin's order.
Shen Jingcheng's resettlement of refugees the year before last made the county more populous and more land, although this was just a small matter, but it did make He Zhilin add a small amount of good political achievements, so he wanted Shen Jingcheng to continue to do this.
If Shen Jingcheng can still let some homeless people settle here like last time, it will undoubtedly add another good achievement to He Zhilin's resume. Even if those homeless people can't settle down, as long as Shen Jingcheng can appease these people, it is also a good political achievement, and he doesn't have to worry about labor, money and food, why not do it.
As soon as Lin Hu left, Gu Jin came over, and when he saw Shen Jingcheng sitting motionless on the chair, he didn't know what he was thinking, so he immediately stepped forward to comfort him.
"Don't worry, it's a big deal, we'll treat it as a year for nothing."
Shen Jingcheng raised his eyes and saw her looking at her worriedly, but suddenly smiled.
"What do I have to worry about, I am very happy."
"Huh?" Gu Jin was stunned when he heard this.
I'm afraid I'm not stupid, right?
She almost died of anger when she heard Lin Hu's words in the next room, he was still happy?
How much food do so many displaced people need?
Besides, the disaster relief and resettlement of displaced people is a matter for the government, so what does it matter to them? How can any government be so hard-lined?
"We are short of people, Lin Hu gave us people, it's a good thing, isn't it?" Shen Jingcheng said and took her in his arms, let her sit on his lap, and slowly explained: "We don't have anything in Qingzhou Mansion yet, and we haven't found a hired worker yet, but now it's just right, I'm looking for someone in the province."
"You mean...... get people to Qingzhou Mansion?" Gu Jin looked at him with surprise in his eyes.
