Chapter 488: Shi Kefa is here

Yushi Wu Fu is having a headache.

Oops, oh mom, my brain hurts!

The 30,000 Liukou family members are now crowded in the small county town of Hequ.

Although he knew that he shouldn't say this, he still scolded in his heart: Wang Jiayin, you dog, you don't take your family away when you break through, what are you doing here? Will I raise the wife of the rogue?

At this moment, even in the heart of him, a civil official, a thought flashed with the same thought as that of a military attachΓ©: How good it is to kill everything!

However, such an idea should never be thought of by a literati who has read the "Book of Sages", and after he has killed his dark side, he returns to the bright side and frowns: these people must be settled.

Moreover, these people cannot be placed in Shanxi.

These people are all from Shaanxi, if he says that he is settled in Shanxi, Song Tongyin, the governor of Shanxi, will definitely not be happy, and if he is not happy, he will not cooperate well, and when the time comes, these 30,000 people will be thrown away in a random valley, without food or arable land, and let them fend for themselves, then it will not take a few days, and this group of people will rebel again.

Although they are not young and strong, they are all old and weak women and children, but a group of old people and women rebelled with hoes, doesn't that make the court even more unreasonable? Then come and kill again? Killing a river of blood and sending the heads of 30,000 old and weak women and children, the emperor was angry, and the first one cut off the head of his imperial history Wu Fu.

I have no choice but to move back to Shaanxi!

As soon as he thought of moving back to Shaanxi, he thought of the monk Jigong and Chengcheng County.

"Alas, I don't know if Chengcheng County will accept these 30,000 old and weak women and children."

"Report!"

One of his subordinates came in and reported loudly: "My lord, Shi Kefa, the official of Shaanxi, asks to see you." ”

Wu Fu was overjoyed: "Is Shi Kefa here?" Great, please. ”

Soon, Shi Kefa strode in.

Shi Kefa is 29 years old this year, at the age of ambitious career, and his current official position is that of a pusher in Xi'an, Shaanxi.

However, since he arrived, he has not done serious work as a magistrate for a few days, but has been in charge of helping the people.

There's no way, it's not okay if you don't give people help!

If they don't give relief to the people, the people will commit crimes, and the work of the magistrates will be too busy to finish.

Therefore, before the people commit crimes, they will help the people first, and prevent problems before they happen, so there is no need to do the work of pushing officials, which is called a real pushing official, just like a real swordsman, who does not have a sword in his hand.

As soon as Wu Fu saw Shi Kefa, he burst into tears as if he had seen his relatives: "Brother Shi came at a good time, these rogues and dependents who came from Shaanxi to Shanxi need to be sent back to Shaanxi for resettlement, and they need to spend a lot of money along the way, and the person in charge of this matter, if they are greedy and put these silver coins into their own pockets, these 30,000 people will rebel again, and this official can only feel at ease if he hands over this task to you." ”

Shi Kefa's face was confident and calm, and his eyes were also firm: "Lord Wu, don't worry, if the lower officials are greedy for a copper plate of disaster relief money, they will be reincarnated as a paving stone in the next life, and they will be trampled on by all the people." ”

Wu Fu: "I can only believe in you." ”

With a wave of his hand, his subordinates moved a silver box out: "You use this silver to send these 30,000 old and weak women and children back to Shaanxi, and hand them over to Liang Shixian, the commander of Chengcheng County." ”

Shi Kefa looked at the box, and gasped in his heart: "Lord Wu, if I'm not mistaken, there are only three thousand taels of silver here at most, how can the lower officials use this silver to settle 30,000 people." ”

Wu Fu: "It's just the cost of the road, it's spent on the road." ”

Shi Kefa: "Just the travel expenses? After arriving in Chengcheng County, don't you have to worry about the lower officials? ”

Wu Fu nodded: "Don't worry about it, you can't take care of it, alas." ”

His face was gloomy: "The official brought 100,000 taels of silver into Shaanxi, and as soon as he arrived in Shaanxi, he was begged by Hong Chengchou for 20,000 taels to pay the arrears of military salaries, and there were only 80,000 left in his hand. ”

Shi Kefa: "!! ”

Wu Fu walked up quickly and held Shi Kefa's hand: "Except for Ling, I can't trust anyone else, they will all be greedy for silver, only you can be trusted." ”

Shi Kefa's spirit perked up: "I understand, Lord Wu can rest assured that it will be handed over to me, even if the ability of the subordinate is very weak, he will definitely work hard." ”

Soon, Shi Kefa took 1,000 officers and soldiers, 30,000 old and weak women and children, and embarked on the long road to Chengcheng County.

The fastest way to get from the meanders of the river to Chengcheng County should be by boat.

However, the upper reaches of the Yellow River are turbulent, it is not easy to travel by boat, the imperial court is not able to transport capacity here, there is no way to transfer a large number of river boats to transport 30,000 people, Shi Kefa had to take the land route, first to Taiyuan, then from Taiyuan to Pingyang Mansion, and then from Pingyang Mansion to Hejin Mansion, cross the Yellow River through Longmen Gudu, and then enter Chengcheng through Hancheng County and Heyang County.

The total length of this road is a thousand miles away!

Shi Kefa knew it was difficult, but he was not afraid, although he was weak, he never flinched.

A few days later, he led his crowd to Taiyuan Mansion.

The food they brought with them when they set out had been eaten, and the old and weak women and children were so hungry that they cried, and many of them could no longer walk, and their emotions were so tight that they were not given anything to eat, but they were afraid that they would make trouble again.

Shi Kefa had no choice but to go to Taiyuan Mansion to buy grain.

When I entered the city, I asked in the grain store of the government, and the price of grain was 800 yuan per bucket of grain.

Shi Kefa's head suddenly ached.

If calculated in this way, 3,000 taels of silver is only enough to buy about 50,000 catties of grain, how can this be enough for 30,000 people to walk a thousand miles?

I can't help it, let's do it.

Shi Kefa first negotiated with the grain store, took out his official authority, and pushed the price of grain to 700 yuan per bucket, and then took out 1,500 taels of silver to buy more than 20,000 catties of grain, first let the old and weak women and children eat a half-full meal, suppress his restless emotions, calm the people's hearts, and then take them to continue south.

Along the way, digging up grass roots, digging wild vegetables, peeling tree bark, mixing these things with grain and cooking, desperately saving, making a difficult trek and walking hundreds of miles.

The more than 20,000 catties of grain have been exhausted.

A subordinate came down and reported: "My lord, our grain has bottomed out, and we have to find a place to buy grain again." ”

Shi Kefa's brows furrowed deeply: "Which city is the one you have to pass through ahead?" ”

Subordinate reported: "Binh Duong Province." ”

"Pingyang Mansion?" Shi Kefa immediately remembered that not long ago, he had seen a military intelligence report, saying that Pingyang Mansion was attacked by 10,000 thieves led by the eight kings of Nanying, and the general Li Huai was defeated and almost broke the city.

Shi Kefa let out a long sigh: "Pingyang Mansion was attacked by thieves not long ago, but I'm afraid that the price of grain will not be cheap, alas...... What can I do? ”
