Chapter 28, Snow Disaster

When the kiln could officially start, it was already the cold winter.

Snowflakes fly all over the sky with the wind, like goose feathers, the beauty makes people intoxicated, and many literati in Handan write poems for snow. But where they couldn't see, the snow roared, crushed roofs, buried walls, and took the lives of countless people and livestock.

Liao Bo was trapped in Handan by the sudden heavy snow, while Yaoxing was in the mansion next to the kiln, begging and begging to be taken in.

"Young master, let them be driven away! We haven't stocked up much food, where can we help! Sheng Nan was worried that Yaoxing would be kind-hearted for a while, so he persuaded him bitterly.

Yaoxing was dressed in men's clothes and checked the account books in the house. Hearing Sheng Nan's words, he frowned unconsciously.

It's not a way to drive people away, it's only a few dozen people now, and if it snows for a few days, the house will definitely be surrounded by more people. When the mountains and rivers are exhausted, they break in, how long can these guys in the house stop?

Now, they must be saved, and no one can survive without death. The humanity of the famine year is not worth believing.

"Let the kitchen steam dozens of rough grain steamed buns, cook a pot of porridge, and give one to the people outside."

"Let the guy tell them again, there is not much food in our house, and we can't support it for a few days, so we have sent a letter to the family to send it, so that they are persevering."

"If you don't have food these days, you can exchange it for firewood. If the house is crushed, you can go into the kiln to work, so that you can have a warm place to live. ”

"We will do our best to help them, but we will never raise idlers, nor will we be threatened by ruffians!"

In this way, it will be possible to prevent people from trying to take advantage of the anger of the crowd to break into the house and grab things, and there is no need to raise these victims in vain.

The world is not good, it is normal for people to be hungry, and Yao Xing can't do anything even if he wants to help them. We can't let them think of themselves as great benevolent people, and they will come here to ask for food and clothing in the future, or when they encounter disasters.

Sheng Nan was unwilling: "Young master, in this case, our food will last for a maximum of twenty days!" ”

Sheng Nan had been hungry and knew the misery of the disaster, so he was naturally reluctant to give up the food. But she has never seen anyone who showed her wealth during the catastrophe, was broken into her home, smashed and robbed, and even lost her life.

"That way, we'll be able to hold out for at least twenty days. If they don't pull out a dime, they will do anything when they are about to starve to death. Yao Xing told Sheng Nan the truth, although she was just a maid, she was also smarter and caring.

Sheng Nan pouted and responded, and then went out to convey the order.

After Sheng Nan left, Yao Xing also sighed and rubbed his eyebrows helplessly.

Yaoxing didn't know when this road would be opened, and he didn't know when Liao Bo would be able to come over. But now there is no other way, and Yao Xing can only take chances.

Fortunately, the crops in the fields had been harvested late in the snow, and although there was not much left after paying taxes, there were not many people who had no food at all.

Yao Xing also spoke, people who have grain can sell grain to the house, not only according to the market price of two percent higher, but also get a quota to enter the kiln to work. There will be monthly money every month after that.

The firewood collected by the victims was used to burn the kiln, and other raw materials had been accumulated before, and the number of workers was too large, so they were simply divided into two groups day and night.

But the cement was made, the granary was empty, and the snow still didn't stop.
