Chapter 27 The Hanged Cannon Fodder Concubine in Rebirth (27)

Jiang Wei whispered a few words to Xie Yi, and Xie Yi ordered: "Shou Sheng, send some people to take in the refugees, and then open more porridge sheds."

Sheng Gongliang looked puzzled: "Master Xie, there are too many refugees in the city, and the relief supplies issued by the court are not enough..."

Xie Yi said in a deep voice: "Prefect Sheng, Qinghe County is in trouble, and the minister came here on order, if Prefect Sheng is unwilling to cooperate..."

While he was speaking, the accompanying soldiers and generals came over.

Taishou Sheng trembled slightly, and immediately scolded Zhao Taicheng beside him, "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up to appease the refugees."

"Yes." Zhao Taicheng was a young official, and immediately took the yamen servants out to handle errands after receiving the order.

In the rain, Jiang Wei looked at Qinghe City. Qinghe County is in the south, and it has always been a rich place. How can it be so poor that it can't afford a porridge shed.

"Master Xie, the rain won't stop for a while, please follow me into the county mansion to rest." Sheng Gongliang led the way.

There are many servants in the county mansion, and the interior layout is also quite particular.After Jiang Wei and his party settled down, Xue Dongbi proposed to go to the refugee camp to check the refugees.

Jiang Wei agreed and sent a few more soldiers to follow him out.

Xue Dongbi went to check the condition of the refugees and wanted to develop a prescription to treat the epidemic.

In the study room, Xie Yi tapped the table twice, pondered: "What's the matter with the county government's account books?"

After they inspected the warehouse, they found that there were very few supplies in it, and only one-tenth of the disaster relief funds issued by the imperial court were left here.

Prefect Sheng said tremblingly: "I don't even know, after the previous prefect died suddenly, I took over temporarily."

"I have no real power. Once Master Li, who was sent to relieve the disaster, left, this mess was left behind..."

Xie Yi looked at Jiang Wei, and the two of them knew each other that Mr. Li was an imperial envoy sent by Qi Yuan in office, that is, the younger brother of the former queen, Li Guangli, the uncle of the country.

Sheng Gongliang and Xie Yi vomited their bitterness and yelled, no money, no food, no hands, what to do for disaster relief, isn't it up to Xie Shangshu to deal with it.

After Sheng Gongliang left the study, Jiang Wei asked Xie Yi to send the evidence of Li Guangli's corruption back to the capital, when Xue Dongbi returned.

As soon as he entered the study, he said: "It is true that many people in Qinghe fell ill."

"Is it really an epidemic?" Xie Yi felt very nervous.

Jiang Wei motioned them all to sit down, and asked Xue Dongbi to clarify the news that came out.

Xue Dongbi said solemnly: "Today I went to the ruined temple to see. Some people had headaches, fever or neck swelling, swollen, and some had already died of illness."

Xie Yi quickly asked: "Is there any cure for this disease?"

Xue Dongbi shook his head, then looked at Jiang Wei.

Jiang Wei said, "I have to go and see for myself."

They and their party brought a lot of soldiers, mainly to suppress the riots of the victims.

Qinghe County did not issue an isolation order before, and Jiang Wei immediately ordered the city to be sealed off when he arrived.

"Master Xie, this can't be done. Once this order is issued, the city will definitely become more chaotic." Prefect Sheng felt bad all over and his lips turned white.

Xie Yi got Jiang Wei's order and took the soldiers to post the notice. As soon as the notice was posted, there was turmoil in the city.

Prefect Sheng was the one who panicked the most, so he kept an eye on the situation in the city, and rushed back to inform Jiang Wei and the others as soon as he found something was wrong.

"Master Xie, many people here are sick. The notice was issued only today. The wealthy businessmen in the city are planning to move their families out of the city, let alone the refugees. Qinghe County will..."

Xie Yi interrupted him, "Okay, the gates of the city have been closed, where are they going, you take some soldiers there now, and invite the local wealthy businessmen to have dinner at the county mansion."

Taishou Sheng was stunned, knowing that it would be impossible not to do this, so he could only grit his teeth and do it.For the safety of his life, he spent a lot of time before hiring someone.

Those wealthy businessmen were all local snakes in Qinghe County, so they were so easy to invite, some of them threw the invitations aside in person.

But Prefect Sheng didn't do it for dinner, so he simply took advantage of his large manpower to forcibly arrest wealthy businessmen who were unwilling to go to the county mansion.

Some wealthy businessmen received the news and got together in advance to discuss countermeasures.

"What's the situation in the county mansion?" Bai Dangyang is a wealthy businessman in the Qinghe area, and he is in the grain business.

Deng Nan is in the medicinal material business, and the medicinal material business of the entire Qinghe County is almost in his hands. He laughed and said, "The county government is busy suppressing the mob."

"The order to block the city came suddenly, otherwise we would have made preparations as soon as we got the news, and we wouldn't have to be as passive as we are now."

Someone cautiously asked: "Will there be imperial envoys sent by the imperial court? They want the money and food we have in hand."

Shi Jufu, who was sitting in the upper seat, knocked on his pipe and said slowly: "Since the county government invites you, then go, I'm afraid!"

Shi Qi has a mole on his mouth, he is known as Shi Jufu, and he runs the Yinlou Bank.

After he made a fortune, he lived a luxurious life and built a Dabiezhuang. There were many beauties in the Biezhuang for entertainment. When talking about business with people, the beauties persuaded them to drink. .

Therefore, Shi Jufu is the most prestigious in Qinghe.

Bai Dangyang discussed with them again, and finally decided: "Let the servants below prepare outside the county mansion. If we can't come out for a long time, let them break in."

"That's a good idea. I see that the government servants of the county government have been sent out to suppress the mob. If the county government wants to plot against us, we are not at their mercy!"

Originally, they wanted to take advantage of the Qinghe flood to make a fortune, so they usually stocked up on food and medicinal materials.But the epidemic happened, and no matter what, they all wanted to go out of the city. Even if their family was in Qinghe, they wanted to go out of the city in order to survive.

After all, the green hills were preserved so they didn't have to worry about having no firewood to burn them. The Piansheng County Government issued this city closure order, and they couldn't escape for the time being.

However, they have money and food in their hands, even if they stay in Qinghe, they are much better than others. It is dangerous outside, at worst they don't go out.

But the government won't make it easy for them, so don't blame them for being ruthless!

……

Jiang Wei issued another notice and took Xie Yi out for inspection in casual clothes.

The gate of the city has been closed, and those people who have not yet caught the epidemic are about to drag their families out of the city, but they are all stopped.

The victims who wanted to leave the city shouted loudly, and there was endless noise inside and outside.

"We are not sick, why do you stop us?"

"You don't let us go out of the city, we can't find work, who will support us?"

"Do you raise it? Or do you raise it?" The victims rushed forward and shouted at the yamen servants of the county government.

"That's right, is this how the county official arranged for us? He wanted us to starve to death, so as to save food for disaster relief."

The yamen servant who had just posted the new notice stepped forward to explain with a knife, but they just didn't listen and yelled even more fiercely.

"The government is beating people!"
