After hearing Fang Ling's words, Fang Shuming couldn't help but frown.

It wasn't that he doubted his daughter's words.

Instead, I was thinking about how serious the cold wave my daughter said was.

The people in their Duke's Mansion are actually not the most important thing.

No matter what they say, they have enough food and clothing.

Even if there is a cold wave coming, at most you will suffer a little.

It won't threaten their lives.

But for ordinary people.

But it's not that simple anymore.

Although Daliang has a vast territory and rich resources.

However, due to the heavy tax burden, most ordinary people's lives are difficult.

The people here in the capital are pretty good.

But at most I can eat enough every day, and I don’t have too many clothes to keep out the cold.

Even in the winter of previous years, if it was a little colder.

There will also be many elderly and weak people living in hardship who will freeze to death because they cannot withstand the severe cold.

If there is a big cold wave, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Fang Jinhang was a little anxious when he saw his father deep in thought.

He couldn't help but ask,

"How serious will the cold wave you mentioned, Ling'er, be?"

"And how did you know about this?"

Fang Ling had known that she would be asked why.

So she calmly said the words she had prepared in advance,

"Didn't I tell you about my dream before?"

"Many of my dreams can predict the future."

"I also learned about this cold wave from my dreams."

"Furthermore, my nighttime observations of the sky have strengthened my prediction that a cold wave is about to come."

“And this cold wave can freeze the river water in an instant.

Definitely freezing weather. "

Fang Jinhang didn't know when his sister knew how to see the sky.

But since his sister said this, there was no reason for him to ask further.

Moreover, his mood was immediately disturbed by the possible serious consequences of the cold wave.

He couldn't help but get up and pace back and forth.

"What should we do?"

"The people in our Duke's mansion are not in need of food and clothing."

"But, what should the people do?"

"Can the river freeze instantly?"

"Then how can ordinary people survive such a severe cold?"

Fang Shuming heard his son express his worries and quickly answered:

"Yes."

"It is estimated that at least half of the people in the entire capital will have lost their lives due to the severe cold."

As he said that, Fang Shuming looked at Fang Ling with some confusion.

"Ling'er, you should have told us the news earlier."

"While we report to the court, we can also plan in advance to tide over the difficulties for the people."

When Fang Ling heard this, she said calmly:

"Father, I predicted that there would be a cold wave coming, but I didn't have complete evidence."

"If we rashly report it to the court, let's not even ask if the current emperor will believe it?"

"Even if I believe it, can the emperor take any effective measures now?"

“Or maybe the cold wave will really come as promised.

Then the emperor should be suspicious of our Fang family again. "

"He will even regard our Fang family as a thorn in his side, a thorn in his flesh, and must be eradicated as soon as possible."

“The current emperor is a master who regards power as his life.

He will not allow people who can see through the secrets of heaven to exist in the world to threaten his throne. "

After hearing this, Fang Shuming slapped his forehead in annoyance.

"What Ling'er said is true. It's because of my father's lack of consideration."

"It's just that I really can't bear to watch so many people die from the cold wave and there is nothing I can do."

"If you had told my father earlier, I could have arranged for people to purchase more supplies to keep out the cold."

"When the time comes, we will be able to save some people."

Fang Ling knew his father's nature.

My father has been an official for many years and has always had a clear mind.

In addition to the salary and some rewards from the court.

He will never use the power in his hands to get an extra copper from the court.

But when the country is in crisis.

The father will not be stingy either.

According to his temperament, he would give everything he had for the people of Liang.

Even if he sacrifices his life, he will not blink an eye.

But even so, wasn't his father in the previous life unjustly executed by the royal family?

Yes!

Father, now I know that the current emperor is not the Ming Lord.

And Qin Luo is also cruel and ruthless.

However, it was impossible for my father to let go of the people of Daliang.

Once a large number of people are in danger, my father will definitely step forward.

This was also the main reason why Fang Ling didn't tell her father in advance that the cold wave was coming.

Because she didn't want her father to ignore herself and only care about others.

So, Fang Ling stood up and walked slowly to her father.

She gave a blessing and said respectfully:

"Father, in my eyes, nothing is more important than family."

"We want to save the people, but saving the lives of our families first is the most fundamental thing."

"If I had told you about the cold wave in advance, how much supplies would you have left for the people in the Duke's Mansion, father?"

"Based on my daughter's understanding of you, I guess you will try your best to get everything out, right?"

"That's why I chose not to say anything."

With that said, Fang Ling looked back at Chunmei.

Chunmei understood and immediately presented the three mink coats she was holding in her hands.

Fang Ling stepped forward to take it, and then gave one to his father, brother and sister-in-law respectively.

"This mink coat is warm and I specially prepared it for you."

Fang Shuming held a mink coat.

It is smooth and soft to the touch, not only comfortable to touch, but also holding it in your hand, you can immediately tell that it will be extremely warm when worn on your body.

Although Daliang is relatively cold in winter.

But in the winter of previous years, as long as you have thicker cotton-padded clothes, you can keep out the cold.

No need to wear a mink coat at all.

More importantly, such a mink coat is worth a lot of money at first glance.

Although Fang Shuming is the Duke of the country.

But he doesn't pursue luxurious clothing on weekdays.

If he had extra money, he would not spend it frivolously.

In this case, the betrothal gift for the son's wife and the dowry for the daughter can be prepared more generously.

So Fang Shuming has never worn a mink coat.

In his hand he held the clothes prepared by his daughter.

Feeling warm in my heart, but also a little uncertain at the same time, I asked:

"How many days will it really be cold enough to require wearing this kind of clothes?"

Fang Ling nodded firmly,

"Yes."

"Father, you don't have to worry too much about the people."

"I have told Amu before about the cold wave coming."

"He has made good arrangements."

"He not only prepared enough supplies for the people to keep out the cold."

“Tents have also been used to set up shelters that can accommodate thousands of people.

The shelter is not only equipped with enough supplies to keep out the cold, but is also equipped with doctors.

In this way, we can protect the homeless, the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled to survive this cold wave. "

After hearing this, Fang Shuming immediately became energetic.

"really?"

"This is really great."

Fang Shuming almost cried with joy.

He didn't care about his elder's status.

He quickly stood up and walked to Qin Mu, kneeling down to express his thanks.
