Chapter 25: Don't Take It Seriously
It doesn't matter what is in Quanjiang County.
In a short period of time, Jiang Xuan was not ready to attack, at most it was an investigation.
Because there are too many victims here, there is really a move, and the fire at the city gate can easily affect the pond fish.
Of course.
You don't have to wait too long.
Ten days, half a month, or a month.
When the flood waters below reced, these victims will be able to return to their hometowns, and those who do not leave will be in peace and disorder.
"Senior brother, there is some commotion among the victims."
"Why?"
"Because there is a proposal to add two more cauldrons to be opened specifically for the elderly and the sick, this call has been echoed by many people."
"Reject them..."
Jiang Xuan didn't pay attention to it at all.
He didn't have much food to bring, and every grain of rice had to be carefully calculated.
Just like Governor Zhou said: 'If there is a bowl of rice and two people, one is destined to starve to death, I choose to starve to death for an ordinary person and live for a border soldier.' ’
Jiang Xuan also faced this choice.
And his choice is to keep the youth as strong as possible.
Disaster victims are a general term.
The people affected by the disaster can be called disaster victims, but the disaster victims themselves are actually divided into three, six, nine and so on.
The first class is young and strong.
As long as these people do not die, they will soon be able to put into production and construction, and they are also the main force that can return to the village to continue to reproduce after the disaster.
The second class is women.
Whether it is begging for food, asking for food, or selling themselves, it is easier for women to make a move.
The third class is children.
In troubled times, the power of the family will expand rapidly.
Some far-sighted families often buy hundreds of children in one go, not necessarily to rebel, but more to accept as domestic slaves, like this kind of domestic slaves who have been cultivated since childhood are the most loyal, and can even be used as dead soldiers.
As for the fourth class.
It is the elderly who have children to take care of.
These elderly people themselves have little ability to survive, but because they are cared for, some lucky ones can avoid natural disasters.
The worst is the fifth class.
There is no one to take care of them, or they are sick and weak.
This kind of person dies the most on the way to escape, and some old people will refuse even if they don't want to think about it, for fear that they will die on the road halfway through, and they can't even return to their roots.
Jiang Xuan.
He can only keep Qingzhuang as much as possible, as long as Qingzhuang is alive, then there will be children born next year, and the affected areas will not be broken.
The elderly and the sick.
I'm sorry, but it's cruel to give up, but it's the trick of human beings thriving in the face of disaster, and this trick is still prevalent in war-torn areas.
As for conscience.
Let's talk about it after eating a full meal, the hungry only think about eating, which is: 'The willow wanders with the wind, and Hua Tuo is difficult to heal in the world...'
"Where's Master Kong?"
The next day.
Jiang Xuan got up early in the morning, ready to talk to Kong County Ling about investigating Ping'an Dao.
"Your Excellency."
In the face of inquiry, the messenger of the guard stumbled: "Because of the rice disaster, the county made the adults happy last night, drank a few more cups, and now they have just fallen asleep, this will..."
"What an alcoholic."
When I saw Kong Xianling yesterday, he looked drunk.
Today I drank until dawn again.
Jiang Xuan didn't need to ask to know that this Master Kong was probably like this every day, and he almost died drunk in the wine vat.
"Who is in charge of the county government on weekdays?"
Kong Xian Ling was drunk all day.
It shows that the county government also has a set of operation teams, which can ensure normal operation on weekdays.
"Inside the Lord is the county minister, the master book, and the master who represents the county order." The official is also clear about these: "Outside the main is Master Xiong, and Xiong always catches his head." ”
Nodding.
Jiang Xuan ordered: "Call these four people to come to the garden to see me." ”
"Yes, sir."
The messenger nodded and bowed.
Not much.
The four county officials arrived one after another, and looking at the positions of the four people, the county official was obviously with the chief bookkeeper, and the master stood with Xiong Zhutou.
"The county commander is close to the master book, and the Kong county order used the master to win over Mr. Xiong's head, so although this Kong county commander looks dim, he actually has control over the county government."
Just take a look.
Jiang Xuan made a preliminary judgment.
I don't dare to say it, at least on the surface, so I said: "You are all officials in charge of Quanjiang County, and you are responsible for a stall of things, and I, I came to Quanjiang for disaster relief, and I also came for peace and security."
Let's talk about it.
During this time, Ping'an Dao wantonly plundered the government treasury and distributed the looted money and grain to the affected people in Quanjiang.
As the chief official of this place, how much do you know about Ping'an Dao, how many members of Ping'an Dao are active in Quanjiang County, who are their leaders, where are their strongholds, who you have seen on weekdays, and what you are going to do, tell me everything you know. ”
Silent...
The four of them looked at each other, and they all lowered their heads.
"What do you mean?"
Seeing the reaction of the four people, Jiang Xuanle said: "Do you not know, or do you know but dare not say it, or do you collude with the Peace Dao and are members of the Ping An Dao?" ”
"Your Excellency has wronged you."
He Xiancheng hurriedly knelt down: "The people of Ping'an Dao are secretive, they come and go without a trace, although we have heard about it, but we have not caught it, and we dare not collude with Ping'an Dao." ”
Jiang Xuan was noncommittal, and turned his head to look at Xiong Zhutou: "What about you, Xiong Zhutou, I heard from the county officials that you are in charge of foreign affairs, you are in charge of the security of the entire county, and there are hundreds of servants under you, so you don't know anything." ”
Hear this.
The bear catcher said: "I do know some traces, and I even led people to track them down, but unfortunately I fell short." ”
"Why the air?" Jiang Xuan asked rhetorically.
"The people don't trust us, but they will take the initiative to help the people of Ping'andao to cover up." Xiong Zhutou looked helpless: "Most of our case-handling system comes from the people's actions and official corrections, and if no one reports to the official, it is usually difficult for us to rush to the scene as soon as possible."
Ping An Dao has a strong appeal among the people.
If anyone tells us about the Peace Road, they will even be unanimously boycotted by the neighbors.
Based on this, whether it is ordinary people or ruffians, as long as it comes to matters of peace, they will keep silent, so that in many things, we are the last to know, and it has been several days since then, and the news has no value at all. ”
Listen to it sentence by sentence.
Jiang Xuan hesitated a little: "You haven't thought of sending someone to break into them, or maybe there will be brave men under the heavy reward to buy a few scoundrels as eyeliner?" ”
Xiong Zhutou immediately confessed: "Dereliction of duty, not as long-term as adults think." ”
Jiang Xuan disagreed: "You didn't think so far, or do you have sympathy for Ping'an Dao, you won't be the umbrella of Ping'an Dao in Quanjiang, right?" ”
Hear this.
Xiong Zhutou's face changed greatly: "My lord, I..."
"Haha."
Jiang Xuan laughed: "Just kidding, don't take bear head hunting seriously." ”
