The earthworm-like wandering homeless people gradually approached with weak steps, and when he saw those helpless eyes, Zhu Chengjun moved his heart of compassion. Everyone is a wanderer in troubled times, and whose heart can be so bad.

"Fubo, how is the food stored at home?" Zhu Chengjun didn't care whether he could be the master or not, and decided to do it first.

Fu Bo saw that the young master wanted to give porridge to help the poor, which was certainly a good thing to accumulate virtue, according to the old man's kind and charitable character, even if the young master did the main thing without authorization, he would not blame, and immediately replied: "There is a batch of food at home that will be sold soon, and only enough is left to meet the rations needed before the summer harvest." ”

Looking at this era, especially in troubled times, it is not an exaggeration to pay a load of food, on the contrary, it will only be more and not less.

The importance of food is a strategic material in any era.

The importance of grain is clear to everyone from the supreme ruler to the common people.

"Can you make a voucher with the buyer?" Even if the dynastic law is no longer in existence, one cannot lose credibility.

As long as there are still people, commerce and trade will always be there, and if you lose your reputation, you won't be able to go long.

"Back to the young master, I have never made a coupon book." Fauber replied.

"Fu Bo, from today onwards, the food at home will be stored well, and it is not allowed to be sold to the outside world. Tomorrow, you will arrange for someone to hide all the grain, and you must not let anyone know that the Zhu family has surplus grain. Zhu Chengjun commanded in an unprecedentedly serious tone.

No matter at any time, as long as the warehouse is solid, people will not panic.

"Yes, the old slave listens to the young master." Fauber knows all too well how painful it is to starve.

Hundreds of homeless people walked very slowly, but the distance of more than 100 zhang actually took half an hour.

Seeing the victims walk in, Zhu Chengjun decided to greet him politely.

"Let's go, come forward and take the initiative to say hello." Zhu Chengjun immediately put on a cordial smile that warmly greeted visitors from afar.

The hungry and cold homeless people walked dozens of miles and finally saw people, and their spirits were suddenly lifted.

"There's a house up ahead!" A group of refugees rushed up with their already exhausted physical strength.

Before Zhu Chengjun could speak, the scene immediately wailed.

"Good Samaritan...... Let's enjoy the stuttering......"

As if they saw the savior, the displaced people knelt down and begged for food with broken bowls.

"Everyone, please, please ask what happened." Zhu Chengjun stretched out his hands and motioned for everyone to get up.

"Hey...... The government expropriated and extorted ...... Even the seeds after the beginning of spring were harvested and used as military rations......"

"Not only that, even the only son in the family was forcibly conscripted to be a strong man......"

"We are all ...... I was forced to ...... without a solution."

"The court won't let us live!"

…………

As soon as the conversation box was opened, everyone poured bitter water.

After listening to everyone's words, Zhu Chengjun's face was unprecedentedly solemn, and he forcibly requisitioned military rations and pulled up strong soldiers...... Those who have been forced to live have left their homes one after another, fearing that it will not be long before they arrive here.

"So what do you all plan to do in the future?" Zhu Chengjun stood in front of everyone and stretched out his hand to suppress the noise.

Everyone looked at each other, and now they only wanted to have something to eat, and it was a luxury for them to plan for the future.

"Childe laughed, it's unknown whether we can survive today......"

"This kind boy, please save our big guy."

"Please......"

And they knelt down in the snow, begging for mercy.

Once a person reaches a desperate situation, in order to survive, face and dignity are nothing.

In such a desperate situation, even if he abandons his dignity and chooses to survive, Zhu Chengjun has no contempt and contempt in his eyes. They just bear the oppression brought to them by the rotten court, and when everyone loses their dignity for food, it must be the world and the world that are wrong.

"Everyone, please get up, come with me." Zhu Chengjun personally helped up the old man standing at the front, and he didn't mind that they were dirty and smelly. When he saw everyone scrambling to squeeze for fear of a stampede, Zhu Chengjun shouted: "Don't panic, everyone, since I promised to pull you, I, Zhu Chengjun, will never break my word." ”

Zhu Chengjun's brief words seemed to reassure everyone, and the order of the scene stabilized in an instant.

This group of disaster victims has been going all the way, everyone has avoided them, treated them as plague gods, and longed to catch up as far as possible, He has received the current courtesy, and the humiliation in his stomach has also been temporarily appeased.

led a group of victims to return home with great difficulty, and Zhu Chengjun placed them in the open space on the side of the house in front of the door.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there are not many people in the lower family, so we need to select a few young and strong partners from among you, and everyone will work together to get through the current difficulties first." Zhu Chengjun glanced at the crowd and said.

"I'm coming!"

"Count me in!"

"I ......"

Everyone responded positively, and soon Zhu Chengjun selected more than ten young people with good physical strength and arranged for them to carry grain and boil porridge in pots...... Everything was done in an orderly manner.

It didn't take much effort to set up three cauldrons in front of the gate of the Zhu family.

When the long-lost fireworks were raised, a smile of hope could not help but appear on people's faces that had been desperate at this moment.

The firewood was blazing, which not only brought warmth to everyone's body, but also warmed everyone's heart.

"Fauber, go get the jar of salt again." The porridge in the cauldron is about to boil, although the big guys are so hungry that they can't choose to eat, adding salt to the porridge water can not only improve the taste, but also make people recover their strength faster.

Everyone was already staring at the hot sticky hot porridge with the notched bowls, and crowded around them.

"Please consciously line up, one by one, there are all of them." Zhu Chengjun glanced at the scene that was about to get out of control, and everyone was like an edict.

"You are in charge of dividing the porridge and maintaining order for the last eater." Zhu Chengjun said to the two young people who were in charge of distributing the porridge.

In his previous life, he was managed a lot, and he knew a little bit about the essence of management.

As soon as this sentence came out, the two young people in charge of distributing the porridge did their best, and they didn't dare to treat relatives differently from one over the other. The homeless people who received the porridge also settled down with a restless and anxious heart, and after the porridge was distributed, everyone consciously stepped aside, and the person responsible for maintaining order also carefully supervised it, for fear that they would be confused and receive the double portion.

Seeing that the scene was orderly, Zhu Chengjun knew that he had not only established initial trust in this group of people, but also established personal prestige in a short period of time. As long as what you say still works, you can calm the field.

Building good trust and establishing enough authority can be a good way to motivate people.

"Fauber, you'll be in charge of recording it later, and see what skills you have." Zhu Chengjun commanded.

"Yes, young master." It wasn't until this moment that Fu Bo saw the shrewdness of his young master.

In troubled times, manpower is the cheapest, and it is impossible for Zhu Chengjun to let them eat and drink for nothing and do nothing. As long as there are people available, the immediate difficulties are temporary.

"Goo......" Zhu Chengjun touched his flat stomach and found that he had been busy all morning and had not eaten a drip.

"Young master, you haven't eaten yet, drink a bowl of porridge to deal with it, the master is going home soon." After working for more than an hour, I realized that the two of them had forgotten about lunch, and Fu Bo hurriedly brought a bowl of hot porridge.

"Fu Bo hasn't eaten it yet, you can also serve a bowl." Zhu Chengjun glanced at Fu Bo and commanded.

Zhu Chengjun and Fu Bo walked to the center of the crowd with porridge.

"Ladies and gentlemen." Zhu Chengjun shouted, and everyone stopped what they were doing in unison.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Zhu Chengjun knew that it was time, and then said loudly: "Everyone has a fate to meet today, and after drinking this bowl of porridge, we can all share weal and woe." ”

Zhu Chengjun held the big bowl and turned around for half a circle, and poured the porridge as Juyi wine.

The host's family was next to the hungry soup soup and ate in the same pot as everyone, and the people present no longer felt that it was a charity.

At this time, on the other side of the house, Zhu Hanmo rode a little donkey led by a domestic servant and just returned home, and when he saw the ragged homeless people in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then his face sank.

"Father." Zhu Chengjun took the reins of the donkey, and Fu Bo consciously stepped forward to help Zhu Hanmo down.

The home has become so 'lively', Zhu Hanmo no longer remembers how many years ago. When he saw his son's transformation, even if he made the decision for himself, he would endure it. But it is easy to invite God and difficult to send God, if such a large group of people rely on the Zhu family, then they must not eat away from the already poor family resources.

"Thank you, Master Zhu, Master Zhu's great kindness."

The homeless people all understood the truth of receiving the favor of others, and immediately knelt down and thanked them.

"Good...... Good...... Everyone, please. Being thanked by so many people, Zhu Hanmo also experienced it for the first time, and he was at a loss for a while, and then ordered: "Ah Fu, cook some more porridge, and make sure everyone is full." ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhu Hanmo glanced at his son.

comprehending the meaning of his father's eyes, Zhu Chengjun followed his father and followed him into the house.

Just a few steps into the house, Zhu Hanmo stopped, turned around and glared at him with a reproachful gaze. Although the life of the Zhu family was not good, Zhu Hanmo saw that the beggars in the past were also willing to give alms. But now, after all, it is hundreds of homeless people, and it is not difficult to appease for a while, in case there is chaos, the Zhu family will not be able to turn the sky upside down.

"Was it your idea?" Knowing that it is a good deed of accumulating virtue, Zhu Hanmo is not easy to blame after reading the words of the sages.

"Back to Father, yes." Zhu Chengjun bowed his head and replied.

Zhu Hanmo paced back and forth, thinking hard about the aftermath.

"Father is worried that these hundred and ten people will rely on our family?" Zhu Chengjun said unhurriedly.

"Desperate homeless, that's everything you can do, can you worry about your father." Zhu Hanmo sighed, and then asked: "Before you do good deeds, have you thought about how to deal with the aftermath. ”

What kind of reaction his father would have, Zhu Chengjun had already expected.

"Back to my father, in the final analysis, it boils down to four words: 'work for relief'." Zhu Chengjun said with a smile.

Zhu Hanmo looked at his son, who was idle all day long, in disbelief, and could hear the word 'work for relief' from his mouth, and then saw his son's calm and calm demeanor at the moment, like a wise man with a pearl of wisdom in his hands.

Is this in front of you or the unsuccessful son in your impression? The son has grown, and it is too late to be happy as a father, such a huge change is too sudden.

Zhu Hanmo was relieved and decided to test his son, and then put on a straight face and said, "Let's talk about the specific method." ”

How Zhu Chengjun couldn't see that his father was testing himself, and replied with a little thought: "Qi Hunger Yanzi used to help the people because of the battle of Lu Meng, which shows that there has been a practice of work for relief in ancient times. This group of homeless people are all from poor families, they do not lack the strength, and they have some skills at hand, and the child has ordered Fubo to understand them one by one. Now that spring ploughing is about to begin, it is the time when labor is the tightest. Since 'Mike' threaks make a living by beating wheat, why can't the 'landmen' wander around and farm. ”

Sheltering displaced people for the sake of rebellion? Zhu Chengjun didn't dare to reveal this plan no matter what, and only said a word. With the pedantic energy of his father Zhu Hanmo, a profound ideological education is absolutely indispensable, and it will even ruin the situation that was brought about with great difficulty.

Zhu Hanmo couldn't help but bow his head, and continued to ask: "Our family has its own tenants, even if the labor is tight, it will not affect the spring ploughing, even if there are places in the village that need labor, I am afraid that there will not be so many people, about thirty or fifty people is enough, so what arrangements do you make for the remaining people?" What happens after the spring ploughing famine? ”

Zhu Chengjun immediately took over and said: "Now that the spring cold has not gone, the need for charcoal will inevitably be in short supply, and the children will settle them down for a while, and then distribute tools to them to go into the mountains to cut down and burn charcoal, which is a ............way out."

Zhu Chengjun then said several practical solutions, which Zhu Hanmo even claimed to be good.

"Will they listen to you?" Zhu Hanmo expressed his concerns.

"Father, don't worry, the child has a way to make them obedient." With the foreshadowing before and after, Zhu Chengjun is completely sure that more than thirty percent of the people will absolutely obey and obey the command, and most of the remaining five or six adults will follow the crowd, even if there are still a few people who are disobedient, it is no longer important. Their wills will eventually be coerced by the current, and Zhu Chengjun doesn't believe that in such a desperate situation, there will be many people who just sit and wait for alms and not support themselves in a dignified manner.

"Who taught you this?" Hearing his son talk eloquently, Zhu Hanmo thought that he had limited talent and could not teach these ways of applying the world.

"When I chatted with Rui Niang, I mentioned that the child is just learning and selling." Zhu Chengjun believes that it is very important to maintain family harmony, and it is even more urgent to improve Rui Jinxuan's relationship with her family.

Agree, under the eaves, all I saw when I looked up was a sad face, which really affected my mood.

"Haha...... Good! This matter will be handled by you personally, and your father will support you wholeheartedly! Zhu Hanmo secretly rejoiced at how wise his choice was, and the virtuous daughter-in-law could really make the prodigal son turn back.

"Thank you, father, there is another thing that the child is in charge of." Zhu Chengjun immediately said that he would use the grain that was about to be sold for relief to the victims, and Zhu Hanmo didn't think much about it, and immediately agreed.
