The county government is the key to connecting various families and business gentry, and if the garrison army does not enter the city, she is really a little relieved about the things in the city.

Ji Ruxuan sighed lightly and had no choice but to nod.

In the afternoon, the rain became heavier, the sky hummed a muffled thunder, Jiang Fuguang raised his eyes to look at the sky, the gloomy sky became gloomy, and he thought that there would be another heavy rain coming.

The horses neighed, the horses' hooves waded through the muddy water, making a chaotic sound, and a team of people and horses galloped along the mountain road in Xin'an County.

"Drive!" The woman in the lead, dressed in a cloak of lion, holds the whip in one hand and the reins in the other.

Worked hard all the way and finally arrived in Xin'an County.

June 11, afternoon.

The children of the family carefully selected by the family had rushed to Xin'an County yesterday, a total of twelve people, all of whom were the most outstanding people in the clan.

Hearing that the eldest princess was coming, they came to pay their respects, but they saw that the eldest princess was dressed in black, heroic, and exuding a terrifying majesty.

It's really eyebrows trimmed, Qiong's nose is like a mountain, and there are a little cherry blossoms between the lips.

The state is thick and far-reaching, and the face is greasy, like a musk orchid tree.

When they saw such a fairy palace celestial, the group blushed, fearing that they would lose their temper in front of the eldest princess, and lowered their heads one after another.

The person at the head is not a child of the Yue family, but Qin Jiangzhou, the eldest man of the Qin family, who is about 20 years old, handsome and gentle as jade.

Jiang Fuguang chuckled: "Lone once heard that the eldest man of the Yue family is like a Zhilan jade tree, smiling like a moon in his arms, shocking his talent, and his appearance, so he is the first in the south of the Yangtze River, why don't you see him?" ”

Yue Chen should be the leader of the Yue family's generation.

A child of the Yue family stood up with a gloomy face: "The eldest brother has a flawed face, and he has not been walking outside for many years, so he did not come, and the eldest brother took over the matter of communicating with the merchant gentry to borrow food and collect medicine." ”

Jiang Fuguang couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled: "I just asked casually." ”

After this stubble was revealed, Qin Jiangzhou said: "We have rearranged the household registration of the victims of the disaster, confirmed the number of people affected by the disaster, and the situation of the dead, injured and missing. ”

"The materials donated by all parties are also classified and registered."

"In the name of the yamen, all the doctors and doctors in the ten miles and eight townships of Xin'an County were gathered, and another person was sent from Hangzhou County to come to Xin'an County for heavy remuneration."

"All rice banks in Hangzhou agreed to borrow grain, and the documents were sent to the yamen, just wait for the eldest princess to stamp, and the grain can be transported to the county government tonight."

"The medicinal herb merchants took the initiative to lower the price, agreed to the requisition of medicinal materials, and the documents were also delivered."

“……”

Qin Jiangzhou explained the matter in an orderly manner, and handed a stack of booklets to the eldest princess.

"You've worked hard." Jiang Fuguang's voice was gentle, and he motioned for Ji Ruxuan to take the booklet, and saw that several people had tired faces, "I haven't closed my eyes for a long time." ”

The family has its own set of methods for raising children, the man is seven years old and independent of the courtyard, and sends the family's heavy domestic servants to guide him, and he has to learn to take care of all the things in the yard.

How to govern things and how to cultivate the family, this is the first test given to them by the family, and those who stand out from it will be trained by the family.

Therefore, what the family cultivates is not a "scholar" who can only read, but a "talent" who can really stand up and manage things, which is also the reason why the family has always been deeply rooted in the court and standing tall.

Leaving some things to the family to do, Jiang Fuguang is still very relieved.

The family has a good reputation in the local area, there is no shortage of contacts, and it maintains a good relationship with many business gentry, and it will be easier to leave the matter of communication with the business gentry to the family.

Assisting the eldest princess to calm down the disaster, this kind of opportunity for meritorious service, the children of the family will not let go of it.

When the eldest princess examines them to the court in the future, this will also become the focus of the court's assessment, and with a beautiful resume, the starting point of entering the court is higher than others.

Everyone will do their best with the help of the family behind them.

This is also Jiang Fuguang's plan.

The population of an ordinary small and medium-sized county is about 20,000 to more than 100,000 people.

The population of a prosperous county can reach more than 200,000.

The Southern Dynasty is located in the south, and since ancient times, it has been a densely populated land because of its fertile land and abundant products.

Xin'an County is a merger of two large counties and is one of the main producing areas of silkworms and rice in Hangzhou, with a total of more than 400,000 people.

The dam also affected the nearby counties of Tonglu and Jiande, with more than 170,000 people affected and more than 2,000 dead. This is already the largest disaster since His Majesty ascended the throne. ”

Jiang Fuguang's expression was solemn, if the tide does not recede, the disaster will continue to expand, and the number of victims will be even more.

Even these freshly dressed and angry horses, the high-spirited sons of the family, after seeing the tragic situation after the disaster in Xin'an County, they couldn't help but feel related.

Jiang Fuguang took out the seal from his sleeve and stamped the IOUs of the major rice shops one by one: "Let the major rice shops transport grain as soon as possible, all grain must be carefully inspected, mixed with old grain, and all moldy and germinated rice grains will be immediately sealed up, and the owners of the rice shops will be arrested and imprisoned for later review." ”

Qin Jiangzhou hurriedly took a stack of IOUs and nodded solemnly.

At this time, Yue Ting rushed over when he heard the news.

Jiang Fuguang saw that he was still wearing a robe, and there was still water dripping on his body: "Just came down from the dam?" ”

"Yes."

"How's the dam going?" Jiang Fuguang frowned and asked.

Yue Ting's face was solemn: "It's not very good, building embankments, fixing dams, dredging downstream passages, almost never stopped, but the water level of the dam is still rising day by day, if the tide does not recede, at most five days, the water level will cross the dam, and the entire Xin'an County will be flooded." ”

The two were talking.

A soldier was wet and anxious and ran to report: "General, it's not good, there is a fight on the dam, and the villagers and the government officials have clashed for some reason, and the two sides have a big fight." ”

Yue Ting's face was abrupt: "Why didn't you stop it?" ”

"Stop," the soldier gasped, "we can't stop it at all, we are garrison troops, neither the yamen nor the villagers can intervene, in case we accidentally hurt someone and cause a riot, it will be troublesome." ”

Jiang Fuguang's face froze: "Go over and take a look." ”

Qin Jiangzhou and his party were not at ease, and followed behind the eldest princess one after another.

The muffled thunder gradually became louder, Jiang Fuguang put on his coat and hurriedly went to the dam with Yue Ting, Ji Ruxuan sighed lightly and followed.

Along the way, Jiang Fuguang asked Yue Ting: "There are often conflicts between the officials and the villagers?" ”

"That's right," Yue Ting sighed, "I have to make trouble almost every day, and when it's serious, I will copy the guys, those officials have been in office in the government for a long time, but the faction is not small, and it doesn't matter if they don't do things well, they often dictate to the villagers and provoke trouble......"

As soon as he heard Yue Ting's words, Jiang Fuguang understood that the government sent the officials to build the embankment, just to put on a show, and did not intend to really help the villagers, of course they would not do things seriously, and the villagers were not stupid, they looked at everything in their eyes, and they were dissatisfied with the officials, and the two sides clashed constantly.
