906 Disaster Relief Minister

Moreover, on weekdays, meeting Mr. Fang is like meeting the emperor. Mr. Fang has never dealt with these people. They just want to get close to Mr. Fang, so they have to be able to meet people!

Now, Mr. Fang wants to meet them in person. This is a good opportunity for the pie falling from the sky to show his face in front of Mr. Fang.

Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, who wants to miss it, comes one by one non-stop.

There are also some people who Liu Xian did not notify, and they all came when they heard the news.

The small magistrate of Ruixian County was crowded with people wearing silk and satin. Some of the people who came to the back were waiting outside because they couldn't get in, hoping to see Mr. Fang.

Gu Xiaowan was also in the room at the moment, a person dressed as a servant followed Ah Mo, standing behind Liu Xian.

Because of the presence of Mr. Fang this time, those rich people who came here also knew what was going on in the yamen this time.

Therefore, when Liu Xian explained the matter, all the people present agreed. Those who have money get money, and those who have food get food.

The more you donate, the louder the shouting, as if afraid that Mr. Fang won't be able to hear it.

Seeing so many people donating money, Mr. Fang was moved in front of everyone, and he folded his hands and said to everyone present: "It is their luck that the people of Ruixian and the disaster victims can help you. Here, Fang represents these people and the disaster victims. , say thank you to everyone!"

On this day alone, 20,000 taels of silver were donated, and more than 10,000 shi of rice, flour, sorghum, etc. were donated.

According to this, as long as the palace can send people to help the disaster as soon as possible, it should not be a problem for this side to resist for half a month.

All the money and food have arrived.

In order to resettle these victims, the government also spent money to repair two broken temples in the east and west of the city, purchased some necessities and medicinal materials, and hired dozens of civilians to maintain order in the two places.

Because they have food and shelter, and doctors see a doctor when they are sick, the victims no longer go to the fields to steal sweet potato seedlings from farmers. They are also in the ruined temple, waiting for this disaster to pass with peace of mind.

From the palace, Song Renjie, an imperial envoy, soon arrived, and he went south with silver and food, and then arrived at Ruixian County in the order of numbers.

When I first got outside the city, I saw people in uniform, in groups of five or six, patrolling the fields.

Looking at the green and oily crops in Narui County, it seems that Ruixian County should not be affected by the disaster!

However, I also heard that there has been no rain in Ruixian for several months!

Others were in the same situation as Ruixian County. Along the way, they were desolate, and all the crops died in the fields.

But this time it looked fine.

That Song Renjie had some doubts at first, but after arriving in Ruixian County, seeing the prosperity of Ruixian County had nothing to do with the drought at all.

The people still live and work in peace.

Song Renjie was even more strange, wondering why the emperor sent him to such a fat place, where it seemed like a drought had occurred.

We took a private visit and entered the city, and found a large number of disaster victims in the east and west of the city, all with bowls in their hands, lined up in a long queue, where they were making porridge to eat!

One bowl of porridge per person, one steamed bun per person.

Song Renjie asked a random victim. The victim said that he had escaped from another place. When he arrived in Ruixian, he had food, shelter, and a doctor to see a doctor when he was sick, so he stayed and did not leave.

The more I listened, the more curious I became, and I became more curious about Liu Xian from Ruixian County.

Herui County is also located in other counties in the south. Almost the entire city was destroyed. Those who still had some food at home did not go out to beg.

But almost all of them went out begging with their families.

When I asked about the victims, most of them came to Ruixian from other places.

"Do you have any local people from Ruixian County?" Song Renjie was a little unconvinced. Why did he ask so many people, not even a single local disaster victim.

The victim pouted and said, "There are no locals here. We are all from other places. Nuo, you go to the front of the county office, where food is distributed, all of them are locals!"

As soon as Song Renjie heard this, he immediately followed the victim's gesture to the gate of the county government office, just in time to see someone distributing food.

I saw that each person held a special iron card in his hand. As long as the iron card was shown, the rice distributor at the door would distribute it to the people according to the amount.

Song Renjie was curious and watched for a long time at the door.

The people who came to collect the rice were really all locals, and everyone either carried a pot or a bag to pack the rice.

And only the disaster victims from other places took a bowl and went to make ready-made rice porridge to drink.

The orderliness and the contented smiles on the faces of the people are completely unseen in other places.

During this period of time, he was used to seeing ghosts and wolf howls and disheveled faces. When he arrived in Ruixian, it was quiet and peaceful, but he was not used to it.

"Master, Ruixian County is logically the place where the disaster occurred this time, but now it seems that Ruixian County has not been affected at all, and it has also settled the outside victims in an orderly manner, neither the situation of the dead nor the There is a situation of beating, smashing and looting!" said a guard-like person on the side.

Song Renjie nodded, stroked his beard and said approvingly: "It seems that Liu Xian from Ruixian County is someone who can do things! Get ready, let's go to the city!"

Song Renjie originally came to see in plainclothes this time, and when he saw what he wanted to see, after entering the city, he turned to Liu Xian even more.

Plus is full of praise.

The emperor sent a disaster relief minister, which caused a sensation throughout Ruixian County.

When Gu Xiaowan learned that there was a minister sent by the imperial government to guide the disaster relief in Ruixian County, she happened to be watching the situation of sweet potatoes in the field.

He clapped the dirt on his hands and said with a smile, "Okay, I need to relax a bit! Master Liu can also breathe a sigh of relief!"

That imperial commissioner was in Ruixian and stayed for half a month.

In the past two weeks, I heard people praise Liu Xian's gentleness, wiseness and martial arts, and love for the people, which can be heard everywhere.
