Seeing the location marked on the map, Kono's pupils shrank suddenly, and his hands holding the drawing trembled.

"Yamato, Hanoi, Yamato...... There was an earthquake in all parts of the main island, and most of the five provinces were destroyed?! ”

Not only earthquakes, but also volcanic eruptions, resulting in casualties that have not yet been counted.

But just by seeing the traces on the map with a red pen, Kono guessed that his relatives and friends in his hometown were more than lucky.

Fortunately, they are close to the area of the royal city, and they are protected by the dragon qi of King Qide, and they will definitely be able to turn evil into good fortune.

Kono showed the map to others while he continued to look at the contents of the other letters.

From the beginning to the end, it is written about the specific disaster situation that can be collected in the adjacent Daxing area, the west side of the island, and the estimated damage.

The last three pages are the orders given to him by the Shangguan.

These orders are the only ones he has the right to check, Kono glared, and the teenage boy who came over next to him turned his back, lit the oil lamp, and leaned down to read it carefully.

After reading the new order, he finally got a little relief from the depression in his heart that had been too badly affected by the disaster.

Although the purpose of their lurking here is to one day open the city gate to the soldiers of the island who invaded Jinling, but at this time, the island has suffered such a serious natural disaster, and most of the people present are worried about their relatives and friends in their hometown, who is still in the mood to fight.

Fortunately, Shangguan did not force them to continue to complete their daily tasks, but instead said that they wanted to borrow their identities to find a glimmer of life for their relatives and friends far away in their hometown.

That is, let the Daxing people pay for the food, and after collecting donations for the Japanese people, they will be transported back to the island by Shangguan, and the money and grain obtained from the Daxing people will be distributed according to their merits.

It is a blessing for them to have such reasonable officials and kings who are kind to the people.

Moreover, Shangguan has also arranged helpers, they only need to use their own connections and influence to cooperate well.

Thinking that his relatives and friends far away from the island were still suffering, and that he didn't know how long the disaster would last, Kono couldn't wait to stand up, his eyes were red, and even the young boy had already burst into tears, and he patted the boy on the back vigorously.

"Cheer up, everybody! Whether our relatives and friends on this island can rebuild their homes after the disaster depends on our efforts! ”

Hearing Kono's words, everyone cheered up.

Oh, yes.

At this time, even if they want to rescue their relatives and friends on the island, they can't save the fire from far water.

In addition, the local people are so poor that they want nothing, and they go there, except to starve and suffer, there is no other meaning.

It's better to stay in Daxing, take care of yourself first, and then use the identity of the fine work to earn some money in Daxing with your hands, so that you can send it back to your hometown in the future.

Isn't the reason why they came to Daxing because the king said that Daxing is full of wealth, and when they make achievements here, they can take their relatives over and enjoy it together?

Daxing is different from the Wa Kingdom, where as long as you are willing to work hard and slowly accumulate wealth, it can be passed on from generation to generation.

In the Wa Kingdom, natural disasters that occur from time to time will wipe out the little wealth they have accumulated with great difficulty, and the oppression of those nobles makes it very difficult for them to survive.

Thinking of the relatives who were still suffering in their homeland, these people once again had tears in their eyes and asked Kono.

"Kono-san, what should we do now, does the king still plan to send troops?"

As for the matter of sending troops to Daxing sooner or later, the people who came to Daxing already knew about it, which is also the reason why they disregarded the danger to their lives and mingled in the local area of Daxing.

Sooner or later, this will become the new Wa Kingdom.

This is the welfare they are willing to sacrifice for their children and grandchildren!

Kono shook his head at everyone's expectant gazes.

"Nope."

Everyone was immediately disappointed.

But they also know that at this juncture, whether those prepared soldiers can survive safely is a question, and it is simply wishful thinking to rely on sending troops to loot enough money and food back to their homeland at one time to help the people in their hometown.

"We're going to do something more important......"

Kono beckoned to everyone, and the circle led by him hurriedly stepped forward.

When Kono had finished telling them what they were going to do, everyone looked puzzled.

"Kono-san, you said that what we have to do recently is to ask the people of Daxing to donate money and food, but instead of winning sympathy to get them to raise donations, we have to guide them not to raise donations, what do the officials want to do?"

One lowered his voice and asked inexplicably.

Kono saw the specific plan and naturally understood why, but it was not appropriate to explain this matter too clearly to his subordinates, in case the partition wall had ears and leaked out, which would ruin the overall situation.

"What Shangguan tells us to do, we will do it, Shangguan said, it was Ning Wuxiao who reminded the Jinling prefect to investigate the people from the Wa Kingdom before, and it happened that Ning Fu was born in Jiangmen, and it was easy to provoke them to oppose fundraising, just need to find two insignificant subordinates to play a play."

Is Jinling poetry unharmed?

The young man who asked out just now had a sad face.

It was indeed proposed by Ning Wuxian to investigate the Japanese people, but who in Jinling didn't know, Ning Wuxian donated money to build a village school, and also donated money to resettle veterans and wounded soldiers, and the good deeds done by this person were too many to count.

The most important thing is that the young man had also seen Ning Wuxian's two faces on the road, and he was shocked, and he really couldn't imagine that such a person with such a feng shui and a pure face would refuse to help when the country was destroyed by this disaster.

"Kono-san, this matter is a little difficult, I heard that Ning Wuxian did not join the Chamber of Commerce, but donated a lot of silver to the Chamber of Commerce, and distributed it to the people of other states and counties in Jiangnan Province for disaster relief."

At this time, another person said excitedly: "Not only that, I heard that he also gave those workers a settling-in allowance, there are collapsed houses in his grange, he paid for all the rebuilds, and those veterans and wounded soldiers have been affected by the disaster in their hometowns, he also welcomes them, and for this purpose he also bought an extra 3,000 acres of land and two villages." ”

The people in the circle inside spoke highly of Ning Wuxiao's approach, and showed envy and jealousy.

When they heard this, they couldn't help but fantasize that it would be nice if they were tenants or workers under Ning Wuxian, but unfortunately the Ning family recruited people very strictly, plus the perfume workshop and ice workshop were related to the imperial court, and they had to check the ancestors for three generations, so they couldn't do it if they wanted to.

Kono saw that everyone had such a high opinion of Ning Wuxian, and firmly believed that Ning Wuxian would not ignore the disaster of the Japanese Kingdom, and he was also very troubled.

"Shangguan's order, we must complete it!"

"Let's act more realistically, think of more ways, even if we smear the image of our widows, we must set up this model, we are not not not allowed to donate money and food to Ning Wuxian, we are...... If you want to promote and suppress first, after you succeed, you can make Ning Wuxiao change from wanting to donate 10,000 taels to 100,000 taels, understand? ”
