Chapter 485: Weiwei's Face Slap Begins

Faced with such accusations, Helian Weiwei was very calm, and did not fly into a rage as Liao Zhifu expected, but said slowly: "The adults are right, since the fellow villagers have asked, then we might as well talk about it." Let’s talk about it.” As she spoke, she looked at the farmers: “How can the folks be sure that building roads will make a fortune?”

Several peasants glanced at each other, then involuntarily looked at Master Zhang again.

Helian Weiwei smiled: "The folks always look at Mr. Zhang. Does Mr. Zhang have any good ideas? Then I will ask Mr. Zhang. There are seven days before the second wave of severe drought after autumn. Once the severe drought comes , There is no harvest in the field, if there is no harvest, there will be no food to export, if there is no export, how can we make a fortune? What is the significance of road construction?"

Master Zhang was left speechless by Helian Weiwei's question after question. He opened his mouth to explain, but found that he couldn't explain why.

"It seems that Master Zhang doesn't know either." Helian Weiwei continued to laugh and said, "Then I'm surprised, how can the folks be so sure about something that adults can't guarantee?"

In ancient times, it was not like in modern times. The officials were already afraid, but now Helian Weiwei said so.

Fearing that they would be questioned, the farmers faltered and said, "Yes, it was Mr. Zhang who gave us a guarantee, saying that as long as the road is repaired, we can get rich."

As soon as this remark came out, the officials in the provincial capitals were silent. The meaning of this could not be more obvious. It was clearly Master Zhang who made some rumors.

Moreover, the most urgent problem to be solved in Fuping County is not road construction at all, but the severe drought that is heart-wrenching.

But Master Zhang didn't even mention this matter, instead, he insisted on building the road...

If the time really comes, people in the entire Fuping County will have to go out to escape the famine because of the severe drought and the grains will not be collected, and they will earn ass money!

At that time, the court will not blame the blame, maybe the emperor will be unhappy, and he will pursue their responsibility!

It was originally said that they really wanted to get a sum of money when they came down, but the money was not in danger, they were willing to get it, if it was too much, no one wanted to bear the consequences.

"Master Zhang, you did something wrong with this matter." An official said.

Hearing this, the rest of the people all looked towards Master Zhang.

Master Zhang never expected such a result, and tried his best to support the stiff smile on his face: "I am also worried about the common people."

However, until now, no one would believe what he said again.

Even the people who were brought in by him understood a little bit, and stared at Mr. Zhang fiercely with their eyes, and one of the old men who knew a lot said, "Are you using us! Tell me! "

"I..." After being bitten by him, Master Zhang's expression suddenly became ugly: "My fellow, don't spit blood on people. You came here voluntarily. Why do you say that I am using you? Didn't say anything!"

Listening to his pale and useless explanation, Magistrate Liao scolded an idiot in his heart, and his expression changed accordingly.

Basically everyone knew that Master Zhang belonged to him, and if Master Zhang made a mistake, it was equivalent to slapping him in the face.

This guy surnamed Wei knew it clearly, so he gave him such a trick!

good very good!

Prefect Liao turned his eyes, and said with a hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha: "Leave the road builder in advance, Lord Wei, I think you may have confused the concept of what the fellow villagers are asking you. What they want to know is that Fuping County is obviously The terrain with low water and high fields, why do you spend a lot of money on buried pipes to divert water, which is a waste of time and money, and has no results?"

"Yes, that's what it means!" Mr. Zhang couldn't help but echoed: "According to Mr. Wei, road construction will destroy the fields, and the buried pipes to divert water must pass through the fields. When the water doesn't come, the fields will be destroyed. The common people lost their food anyway."

Prefect Liao took a sip of tea, and said again: "Master Zhang, Mr. Wei is a newcomer who just took office. We can all understand that he wants to make achievements, but understanding is one thing, and permission is another. You Don't worry, if something happens, explain it slowly, and the adults in the provincial capital may misunderstand you."

"I'm in a hurry for the people." Master Zhang said emotionally with a heartbroken look: "The people in Fuping County have built roads. They have no food, but they can still get relief food from the provincial capital. Buried It's just a waste of money to divert water, what effect will it have!"

Helian Weiwei sneered: "Whether it works or not, Master Zhang hasn't seen it yet, so how can he draw conclusions?"

Prefect Liao waved his hand: "Lord Wei, let's stop arguing and go to the fields and let the adults from the provincial capital be witnesses."

This surname Wei, if he doesn't slap him hard once, it seems that he won't be convinced!

In Fuping County, he still doesn't know, no matter how much the water in the river flows, it will not flow to the high-lying fields!

"Just listen to Lord Liao, let's go to the fields and have a look." The officials from the provincial capital spoke, and treated the common people very kindly: "Several fellow villagers are following, and we can also explain to Lord Wei when the time comes. "

When everyone heard this, they laughed loudly, and the mocking eyes in Helian Weiwei's eyes were clear.

Those farmers didn't know who to listen to, they just vaguely felt that they shouldn't have come to Mr. Wei, but now, there was no room for them to repent, so they bit the bullet and followed a group of officials to the field inside.

Speaking of fields, Prefect Liao deliberately or unintentionally led people to the river, just to let some officials in the provincial capital see how low the terrain here is.

The officials said casually as they walked: "Master Wei, sometimes you have to use your brain when doing things. How can the river be so low that it can be poured into the fields?"

Helian Weiwei's thin lips hooked mockingly, but she didn't speak yet.

Suddenly there was a sound of water flowing not far away, accompanied by the cheers of several farmers, causing quite a commotion!

"Water! There's water!"

The officials stopped and looked towards the source of the sound, only to see a clear and indifferent figure in the vast sky and earth, with a long body and a slightly raised robe, like a god in ancient times.

His slender hands were covered with pure black gloves, his thin lips were curved in a smile that was not a smile, and there was a slight cold light in his deep eyes, and the oppressive feeling coming to his face was hard to ignore.

Let him be recognized at the first sight even if he is standing in the crowd.

Helian Weiwei was also taken aback for a moment, followed by a smile on the corner of her mouth. Since the morning, His Royal Highness has disappeared, so it turned out that he was waiting here...
