The more she thought about it, the more it seemed like it was really possible.

immediately came to her daughter's side, took her little hand, and said solemnly with a smile.

"Daughter, can you tell your mother in detail what you just said?"

Huo Junyao smiled and nodded.

"First of all, it is to order to go to the state capitals and counties, so that the imperial court organizes people to investigate the situation of the people in the areas under its jurisdiction, and if it is found that there are people who have suffered disasters, they can organize rescue."

"At the same time, under the name of the imperial court, those temporarily idle and vacant houses and warehouses will be cleaned up, so that the people can live in it first to temporarily avoid the wind and snow."

"The Ministry of Industry has sent more people to build the fireplace, this thing is very simple, those blacksmiths can make it as long as they see the real thing."

"You don't need to get too much, just send one directly to the state capitals and counties, and order them to immediately recruit blacksmiths to make it."

"In this way, the problem of people's resettlement and heating can be greatly alleviated."

"If the vacant house treasury is not enough, then mobilize the local rich squire, or the rich businessmen, to requisition their idle treasury."

Hearing this, the eldest princess frowned; "Can these people say yes? Daughter, you don't know how bad these people are, in previous years, the country was in trouble, and these people did not make a fortune in the country. ”

"If they don't agree, the court can salute first and then soldiers, and for those who don't want to, they can promise to lend, and they will pay according to the market price."

"If you still don't want to, then there's no need to be polite, directly investigate the roots of these people, and the people who can do this will not be a good thing, one check is accurate, if the crime is relatively big, take it directly, and confiscate the family property."

"The money and food obtained can also help the court relieve some of the pressure."

The eldest princess nodded, this is a good solution, but there are also problems.

"It's not that difficult, as you say, they may not be good people."

"But there is collusion between officials and businessmen in many places, and I am afraid it is not easy to handle."

"This is also simple, let the emperor issue an edict, the responsibility for disaster relief will fall directly on the officials of the yamen of the state capitals, if there is a large number of deaths or riots in their jurisdiction, directly hold the local officials accountable."

"Just like the above dealt with those rich squires who are unwilling to cooperate, investigate directly, and if you find that there is such a thing as corruption and perversion of the law in the past, you will directly take and confiscate the family property."

"These corrupt officials, many of them have a lot of money and food in their families."

"As long as the imperial court has a tough attitude, they are not afraid that these local officials will not be afraid, after all, if one does not get it right, the whole family will be convicted, and when they are in danger, they will still take care of those rich squires?"

"At that time, the emperor only needs to catch a few typical examples, Mingzheng Code, and others will dare to act dishonestly when they get the news?"

The solution is indeed good, but the eldest princess is still a little worried.

"Will this cause them to resent and incite riots?"

"Therefore, this edict must be clearly written, only for those who do not cooperate with the imperial court and deliberately obstruct disaster relief, and it is not said just now, and it is not forcibly requisitioned, we will also give money."

"Salute first and then soldiers, it is best to reach the contents of the edict to the state capitals, so that the people know that the imperial court is making a comprehensive plan for them, if there is an obstruction, do not instigate by those bad people, the people are afraid that they will spontaneously attack them first."

"As long as the court stands on the side of the people and truly stands on the side of the people, there is a saying that says."

"The eyes of the masses of the people are bright."

"They may be illiterate and uninformed, but they can still see who is genuinely helping them."

The eldest princess nodded again and again, feeling that her daughter was very reasonable, as long as the imperial court publicized and implemented the steps of disaster relief, the people saw the actions of the imperial court, and naturally believed the imperial court.

And those who want to obstruct it are bound to be unlucky.

They can even take advantage of this opportunity to clean up and rectify some bad tendencies in the state capitals.

"As long as things go well, the imperial court will not spend much money on its practical needs, as for the grain just after the autumn harvest, there should be no shortage in the hands of the people, the state capitals, and the imperial court, and it should be enough for disaster relief."

"It's just that you still have to pay attention."

At this time, the eldest princess attached great importance to what her daughter, a little guy who was less than fifteen years old, said.

Hearing her say that she had to pay attention, he hurriedly asked.

"When I lived in a mountain village in the past, I also encountered a famine, and I heard some things about it at that time."

"In many cases, the relief grain of the imperial court has accurately arrived at the disaster area, but the yamen will hide it at the beginning."

"Why hide it? Is it greedy for ink? Those dog officials are so bold, they dare to be greedy for disaster relief food? ”

The eldest princess raised her eyebrows, disaster relief food, that is related to the lives of tens of millions of victims, local officials are greedy for ink, and there will be people who are not affected by the disaster who lose their lives.

"Greedy for ink is certain, but they don't dare to be completely greedy for ink, they also want to control and not let a large number of victims die, or they won't be able to explain to the above, they will also lose their heads."

"However, these officials, their practices are far more hateful than greedy for these relief foods."

At this, a fierce color flashed in her eyes.

In the memory of the original owner, there was indeed such a thing, but in the village where she was at that time, many people were affected, and even the family was ruined, and the disaster was passed on to future generations.

Many of them are people who help the original owner, or are very good to the original owner, so the original owner has always been very angry about it, even if the original owner is no longer there, but thinking of this, Huo Junyao will still have anger in his heart.

Seeing her like this, the eldest princess's face was also cold, it seemed that her daughter had experienced far more suffering before than she imagined.

"My mother doesn't know much about these things, can you talk to my mother about it?"

"When the relief food arrives, those officials will hide it and say that the relief food has not yet arrived."

"When the food did not arrive, the people were hungry and had no choice but to go to the rich local families and ask them to borrow food."

The eldest princess was a little surprised and felt a little incredulous.

"Those people would be so kind to borrow food?"

Huo Junyao smiled coldly and continued; "Of course they will borrow it, because that's what they're colluding with the officials for."

"They don't borrow for nothing, they need to have collateral, such as the land in the hands of the people."

"Then the grain they lent out was also counted according to nine out of thirteen."

Nine out of thirteen, the eldest princess knew, and instantly understood how these people operated.

"Every year, the people don't have much food left in their hands, and if they do this, there is not much left, and if there is a disaster in the coming year, the grain output will decrease."

"If you can't afford to pay it back at all, these people will directly confiscate the land that was used as a mortgage at the time."

"Because it was the collusion between officials and businessmen, and there was a deed, even if the people knew that they had been killed, they had no way to ask for help."

"Without the land to live on, and without food, there is still a way to live, either to die, or to beg, or to sell children and daughters, and a family will fall into a catastrophe from which it will never recover, and it will be difficult to turn over."
