Jiang Wancheng didn't dare to take the word "sharp" seriously.

She just had the memory of her previous life and knew certain things that would happen in advance.

But in this life, I can't bear to lose so many poor innocent lives anymore.

After the two agreed on the matter, Wen Chao and Yan Dang even went out again.

After much deliberation, the governor of Jiangyuan sent soldiers to various villages and towns where landslides might occur on the second day to guide the transfer.

Where can it be transferred?

Still a problem.

The rain kept falling all day without stopping.

The excitement in the city is getting worse every day.

More and more restaurants and inns are closing, and snack vendors have long been unable to support themselves.

People in the city cannot go out and cannot get fruits, vegetables and fresh supplies from outside the city. Even if there is food in their homes, how long can they eat it?

But people outside the city can't get in. Those refugees don't even have a bite to eat, and some of them have even died of starvation.

Gradually, when the originally peaceful refugees saw that they had been kept out of the city, and that the government had no intention of opening the city gate to let them in, their hearts became completely cold.

The expectations and trust that the people had in the governor finally began to collapse.

Until this day.

Master Zheng, the governor of Jiangyuan, whipped his horse and went out of the city gate himself.

All the refugees rushed forward, kneeling on the ground and shouting for help.

"Sir, save us!"

"Sir, save my child, he is starving to death, my lord!!"

"Sir, we only want a bowl of drink, just drink, sir..."

"Sir, my mother is seriously ill with high fever, please save her..."

"grown ups……"

"grown ups!!"

Amidst the cries and pleas of mourners everywhere, the eyes of the people who were originally despairing were once again ignited with sparks.

But just this little spark made the governor burst into tears.

He remembered that he thought the pancakes made by the cook at home were a bit too hard in the morning.

But the people outside the city, who came to the county to seek shelter and a way out of their lives in order to trust their parents and officials, were actually thirsting for a bowl of water.

Not to mention a bite to eat.

Mr. Zheng felt very ashamed and sad.

Thinking again, they have been waiting outside the city for many days, soaked in the rain, starving and freezing. Even so, they did not make trouble, but desperately waited for a glimmer of hope...

The surging river water was filled with red mud.

But there were still those who couldn't bear the hunger, so they served it, filtered out a layer and drank it.

The consequences of drinking this muddy water can be imagined.

He either starved to death or died of abdominal pain.

The originally bustling pier was now deserted except for some moored boats.

There are huge crowds of people outside the city, all of them refugees...

The gatekeeper said that there were only three to four thousand people.

But now, there are more than three or four thousand people?

It's obviously six to seven thousand, it's obviously hundreds of thousands of people in the entire Jiangyuan County! !

The governor swallowed his tears, raised his hands and shouted loudly, "Folks! We will never care about your life or death! I came out of the city gate to see you today just for your survival! Don't worry, I will I’ll give you food, drink, and shelter right away!”

"Folks, you have to believe that one day, everyone will wait for a sunny day and return to their hometown!"

The refugees looked at each other in disbelief.

Could it be that they are really waiting for the great master Qingtian who will love the people?

At this moment, when Yang Taishou of the Taishou Mansion learned about this incident, he was so angry that he smashed a blue and white porcelain tea cup in his hand.

"This Zheng Kuan is deliberately trying to get in trouble with me, right? I've been guarding the city gate for many days and didn't let the refugees go. Why? Isn't it to protect the thousands of people in the city?"

"Once the city gates are opened and the refugees are allowed in, it will be a problem for them to eat and drink. If there are those who are not honest about their duties, bad things like murder and arson will happen. Who will be responsible for the chaos in the city!?"

The subordinate officials were all silent and did not dare to speak casually.

Governor Yang seemed to be aware of his lapse, and sighed heavily, and then said: "Of course I don't care, nor do I want to save these refugees. But, we have to wait for the court's decree and the relief supplies! This In the past two years, in order to build Jiangyuan, everyone knew that the entire prefect's treasury was empty. That's why I delayed taking action, thinking that I would persist..."

The other officials nodded one by one.

"Yes, sir. We have all signed up early, and the decree from the court will definitely come in the next two days."

"Yes, Mr. Zheng is too impatient. So what if he ran out and won the hearts of those refugees? Where did he get this finance?"

Who doesn’t know that Mr. Zheng’s family is so poor that he only eats one meal of meat every three to five days?

Even if he pays his own money, the refugees outside the city can only last him for one day!

Officials headed by Governor Yang were still waiting for Governor Zheng to make a fool of himself, but unexpectedly, the Governor suddenly waved his hand and took out money from unknown sources to build a refugee camp outside Jiangyuan City.

In just one day, all kinds of wood and oilcloth were transported outside the city gate, and construction began in full swing along both sides of the river that day.

After working day and night, a shed was quickly erected that could provide shelter from wind and rain.

Not only that.

Governor Zheng didn't know where he got the large amount of grain, so he set up several large pots outside the city that day and began to cook porridge and rice.

Many wealthy families in the city, including good people with good conscience, couldn't sit still when they saw this situation.

The servants, wives and servants were sent out to cook and serve porridge despite the rain, and some even distributed steamed buns.

The refugees outside the city finally had something hot to eat. Not only that, Master Zheng also sent people to distribute clothes to them in the afternoon of the first day.

Although they are made of coarse linen, the refugees are very grateful, and some are reluctant to wear these brand-new clothes.

A string of fireworks finally broke out outside the city, and there was some lively noise.

Governor Yang in the city could not sit still again.

"Where did Zheng Kuan get his money!? Also, he can buy so much food, wood and even waterproof tarpaulin at once!? Did he come prepared!?"

Governor Yang was so angry that he couldn't sleep at night.

If Zheng Kuan were to take over his merits this time, and then he was promoted... wouldn't it be possible for that big boss to ride on his head in the future?

The person who was ordered to investigate only said: "It seems that a wealthy businessman secretly donated a large sum of money and food to Governor Zheng. Even the construction of all the refugee camps outside the city were provided by the other party..."

"Bastard!" Yang Taishou was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Where did the unruly people come from? Even if they want to donate money, they should first come to me, the dignified governor of Jiangyuan. Why do they want to go to that man named Zheng? He is a martial artist, what does he know!?"
