The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1017 Inaction

Min Feng's face froze, and then he felt a little displeased, "Then please trouble Master Yang!"

Yang Chaoying hesitated to speak, and wanted to ask Min Feng when they would start patrolling the embankment.But then he thought, the censor and the officials of the Ministry of Industry were not in a hurry, so what was he in a hurry for?
After these officials made their rounds, they would of course report the water leakage on the river embankment, and he could breathe a sigh of relief that the disaster relief money from the imperial court would not be released immediately.

But at the same time, he himself cannot escape accountability for this matter.And the most important thing at this time is not the leakage of the river embankment, but the gathering of disaster victims outside the city, which seems to be out of control.

"By the way, when I entered the city just now, I found many disaster victims gathered outside the city. Some victims even set up straw huts outside the city, and it seemed that they were going to settle temporarily outside the city. Master Yang, do you want to take them in?" Is it a disaster victim?"

Min Feng suddenly remembered the muddy disaster victims outside the city when he first entered the city.

All of them were yellow and thin, and their bodies were in a mess.Seeing that their carriage was about to enter the city gate, a disaster victim immediately went forward to beg for food and money.

After he gave the pastry on the table to the victim, other victims swarmed up and surrounded his carriage, almost unable to enter the city gate.

If it weren't for the soldiers guarding the city to drive them away, their carriage would probably be dismantled by these people.

In such chaos outside the city, it is really embarrassing that the magistrate of Hangtian Mansion is so inactive.

Speaking of this, Yang Chaoying's face was full of sadness.Recently, his hair has almost turned gray from worry, and he was waiting for the imperial envoy to solve the problem, but the imperial envoy ran to Changtian Mansion, and he hasn't shown up until now.

However, these disaster victims kept rushing towards Hangtian Mansion, Qian Huichun died and threw the mess to him.

When Min Feng was in Yingnan Mansion, he heard Li Taixing reveal that Yang Chaoying was pedantic and didn't know how to adapt. Li Taihang's words showed that Yang Chaoying was very timid and fearful, and his ability was very limited.

See you today, it really is!

"Master Yang! These victims are gathered outside the city with nowhere to live, and they have no food supplies. If you don't let them enter the city, where do they get rice? Even if they have money in their hands, they have nowhere to buy it. They don't want to starve to death. Is it? This is also very prone to riots."

Min Feng couldn't agree with Yang Chaoying's actions. Since she wanted to take her in, why didn't she let her enter the city?
Just staying outside the city in the wind and rain, with no rice to eat, wouldn't that be treating human life as a trifling matter?
"That's right! Lord Yang, those victims are really pitiful. If the court doesn't care about them, how can they survive? Before the court allocates the relief money, please think about countermeasures, these are living human lives!"

Duan Shijie, a doctor from the Ministry of Industry, has never been out of the capital, and his family ancestors were from the capital.He had never seen the flood before.Seeing the plight of the victims now, I can't help but feel compassion.

Seeing that these officials misunderstood him, Yang Chaoying felt upset.

These Beijing officials are used to enjoying the blessings in the capital on weekdays. Now that the disaster in the south of the Yangtze River is so severe, the imperial court sent them down to help them think of countermeasures.

However, these people actually came to accuse him first, and they took things for granted, they simply didn't know what to say.

But no matter how dissatisfied he was, he had no choice but to suppress it for now.

Yang Chaoying laughed a little far-fetched, and he said patiently: "You don't know, these disaster victims all came from Changtian Mansion. After they arrived at Hangtian Mansion, they refused to leave, and I was very helpless. We from Hangtian Mansion The river embankment is still leaking, how dare I take in these people?"

"Besides, the imperial court hasn't distributed the relief money yet. Even if I want to take them in, I can't do anything. With a small Hangtian Mansion, it is absolutely impossible to take in so many victims."

Hearing this, several people pondered for a moment, then nodded.

"My official sees that there are not many people outside for the time being. Those who come one after another are not counted. Hangtian Mansion should be able to arrange for these people now, right? For those who come later, let them go to the nearby state capital. Don't tell me Mr. Hu Didn't you make any specific arrangements?"

Min Feng was a little puzzled, Hu Maoshen was cautious, it was impossible not to think of this!

"Master Hu mentioned before that these people were divided into several waves and went to several surrounding cities. It's a pity that these disaster victims refused to leave Hangtian Mansion. They thought that other state capitals were far away, and they had to travel long distances. Not only did they not have enough to eat, but they were also dangerous. So many things, so everyone gathered outside the city gate, and I have no clue now!"

Yang Chaoying glanced at Min Feng who was in deep thought, and said, "I don't know what suggestions Mr. Min and you guys have, so let's discuss how to resettle these victims."

Min Feng's face froze, but he actually didn't have a good idea in mind.And before Hu Maoshen wrote to Li Taihang, Li Taihang asked him to write a letter to Hu Maoshen in response to the water leakage of Nanfu River Embankment on the grounds that there was no surplus food in Fucheng.

He is feeling empty right now!Although he felt his conscience was uneasy, he was in a daze at the time, only those gold and silver were in front of him, how could he want anything else?

He has passed the weak crown, but he has never seen so much gold and silver.

Even though the teacher's mansion is very rich, those jade wares and antique ornaments are all precious things, and some are even priceless.

But those were not his own, which made him only sigh in awe.

Besides, this arty thing, where is the yellow and white thing that looks shocking?

What's more, Li Taihang also promised him that he would do a full set of acting, so he didn't need to worry at all.

If the letter said that the river embankment was leaking, it was a real leak, and no one would catch it.

As for what Li Taihang was going to do, that was not what Min Feng should worry about, so he was relieved.

Besides, the teacher's ancestral home is in Yingnan Mansion, and many members of the clan are officials in the court, and with the support of the teacher, does Hu Maoshen still dare to report the truth to the emperor?
"My lord Yang! I'm just patrolling the river censor, just inspecting the embankment. As for how to arrange for the victims, I'm not good at commenting. You'd better wait for the imperial envoy to come back and ask him to make a decision?"

What's the best way to do this?There are too many victims.

Since it is said that there will be victims coming later, and those victims are unwilling to leave, then Yang Chaoying really has a big deal this time.

He could imagine that if all the victims of the disaster gathered together and didn't eat enough, and the court didn't distribute the relief money, there would be chaos.

He should hurry up to finish his inspection of Hangtian Mansion and go to other state capitals!This thing can't be touched.

The teacher had warned him that when he came to Jiangnan, talk less and watch more, as long as he took care of his own affairs, he didn't need to intervene in other matters.

After inspecting the river embankments of these state capitals and reporting them to the imperial court, more than half of his errands were completed.

As for how to strengthen the embankment, officials from the Ministry of Industry will naturally come up with ideas.
