Chapter 2887 The Real World 237
The prefect said again and again, "Young Master Lei has a good heart. With people like Young Master Lei, our Southern Tang Dynasty will not worry or prosper."
The prefect completely forgot that Lei Yuting was not from the Southern Tang Kingdom.
With the person in charge, the prefect immediately sent someone to summon all the local wealthy merchants, grain merchants, and big families. Everyone gathered together again, and everyone looked at each other, tacitly, and tried to prevaricate the prefect according to the old method.
"I heard that the young owner of Lei's firm brought a lot of food to the disaster relief." One of the wealthy businessmen said.
"Lei's is rich, rich, and able to produce a large amount of food. We can't compare with a small family like us."
Everyone was laughing hahaha.
Chatting with them, Lei Yuting and Lord Prefect sit next to each other. The prefect listened to them chatting and laughing, especially ridiculing Lei Shi's stupidity and his own incompetence, and his face was ashen with anger.
He couldn't help looking at Lei Yuting, worried that he would dispel the idea of helping him because of the words of these people, but he saw him sitting there, his face as usual, unaffected by the outside world.
He didn't speak, and the prefect also sat obediently.
Time passed bit by bit, and after half an hour, the people in the room could no longer sit still.
"Why haven't the prefects come over yet?" Someone asked in dissatisfaction.
The yamen said with a smile: "The refugees have just arrived, and the prefect has gone to appease the victims. Sirs, please wait a moment, the adults will be back soon."
After half a column of incense, the prefect was still not in sight. They were about to get up and leave. The yamen said with a smile: "The lord said, whoever leaves this gate today, the house must have three hundred load of food."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was immediately furious.
"It makes no sense, the prefect is ready to rob it."
"The dignified imperial court ordered officials to do such robbery things. Don't they put the imperial court and the emperor in their eyes?"
"If he dares to do this, we will not go to Chang'an City to sue him even if we are desperate."
...
One by one, they said with indignation, and everyone's guns were unanimous.
When the prefect next door heard their words, he was angry and angry, but he couldn't do anything to them.
Before the catastrophe, it is unknown whether he can keep the black gauze hat on his head.
He couldn't help but look at Lei Yuting, hoping that he would really be able to get things done as he said.
At this moment, Lei Yuting put the teacup in his hand, "Let's go."
While everyone was chattering, Lei Yuting and the prefect appeared together in the inner hall. In an instant, everyone in the hall shut up. Their gazes involuntarily all cast on Lei Yuting's body.
Lei Yuting sat down with the prefect of the prefecture. The prefect did not speak. He said first, "Xia Lei Yuting, I am fortunate to meet the masters of Yanzhou today. I invite you to come here today, and for what, everyone here must know. My The purpose is very simple, I want to ask you to save the suffering people outside."
As soon as he opened his mouth, someone immediately began to cry poor, "Young Master Lei, your Lei family has a big business. We are all small households. We don't have enough food at home. Where can there be food for outsiders. Please forgive me, Mr. Lei."
One by one, they agreed, and what's more, what is Lei Yuting's face, willing to squeeze out 50 dans of grain, and the others squeezed out 30 or 50 dans of food like the wind. .
