Lord Moyu was forced to open

Chapter 109 Ma Denghe of Xining Mansion, those are the people under the rule of this mansion!

As soon as the meeting was over, the Yunzhou County government began to organize an official visiting team to go to Guannei.

On the surface, the visiting group from Yunzhou County was to go inside and outside the customs to purchase supplies that were in short supply, but in fact they were discussing the sale of human population with the prefects of various prefectures.

The first stop is Xining Mansion at the junction of Liaobei County and Yunzhou County.

Since last summer's severe drought, Xining Mansion has been starving and dying everywhere, and the people are destitute.

But for the landowners and gentry in Xining Prefecture, this is the best season. With only a small amount of money, they can get the land that those unruly people hold tightly and refuse to sell for money.

Landlords and gentry wantonly expanded their land during this calamity year, and their family business became larger step by step, and their daily food and drink became more luxurious.

Landlords and gentry's houses played and sang songs every night, and the garbage dump outside the house was full of leftovers.

But the people in the mansion not only lost the land they depended on for their livelihood, but the rice tanks in their homes were still empty. The people could only go up the mountain, trying to find something edible in the mountain, but often the last thing they could find was some tree roots turf.

All this forms a stark contrast, one heaven and one hell.

Since the severe drought, the prefect of Xining Prefecture has been both happy and distressed.

Happily, the imperial court allocated relief money again. Although it has been divided up layer by layer, I can still get a considerable share.

What is distressing is that the disaster relief funds have been obtained, but the number of victims under the rule is increasing day by day.

If this matter is not resolved or contained, then there will be a thunderstorm in the end, and at that time, the magistrate himself will die without a place to bury him.

As for the disaster relief funds that cannot be used to help the victims, don’t be kidding. The disaster relief has already been exploited layer by layer. The rest of the disaster relief is just a drop in the bucket. It’s better to improve yourself Life, after all, natural disasters and natural disasters, the magistrate's family is also suffering from disasters, and they need relief, don't they?

As the number of victims in the prefecture grew bigger and bigger, Ma Deng, the prefect of Xining Prefecture, and Yechou, both listened to two songs less every day, and ate two bowls less.

The body also became puffy twice.

It's so frustrating!

On this day, the magistrate of Xining was dealing with the handover of some documents in the yamen. The main reason was that the landlords and gentry in the mansion handed over some documents in large quantities to the people in the mansion. Because the quantity was too large, the people below did not dare to make decisions, so they submitted it to him. Come.

And these landlords and gentry Ma Deng and they are also old acquaintances. Last night, they spent a chic night together in Zuichun Tower. Now that they saw these documents, they immediately stamped the magistrate's seal without hesitation. I pressed it up.

In this regard, these land transfer documents also have official credibility.

These lands were also completely transferred from the hands of the common people to the hands of various landlords and gentry in the mansion.

The land in Xining Prefecture once again gathered in the hands of a few people in the land annexation.

"Fu Zun! Fu Zun! Someone is coming! Someone is coming!"

As he was using the seal, suddenly his master Mu Youwei's surprised voice came from outside the house.

Ma Deng and Yong Yin's hands couldn't help but pause, and looked up to the door with doubts on their faces.

At this moment, the voice also came to the door from far and near, and a Confucian scholar dressed as a scholar with a square turban walked in quickly with a happy expression on his face.

This person is Mu Youwei, the teacher of the prefect of Xining Prefecture, who assists the prefect of Xining Prefecture in handling the daily affairs of the prefect's yamen.

"My lord, there is good news! Someone is here!"

Walking in quickly, Mu Youwei said in surprise.

Ma Denghe simply put down the seal of the magistrate in his hand and asked with a puzzled expression:
"When did Kunlin (Mu Youwei) get so happy? What kind of good news, and who else is here?"

Mu Youwei took two quick steps and came to Ma Deng and the desk case, and said excitedly: "Master Fu, haven't you been worrying about the number of disaster victims in the mansion recently?"

Madden nodded in a daze.

"That's right, but this good news has nothing to do with who came, right?"

"It is related, it is greatly related!"

Mu Youwei said excitedly.

"The good news is that there is a solution to the problem of the disaster victims, and the person who comes here is the one who solves this problem!"

Ma Deng and Wen Yanteng stood up immediately, and asked in disbelief: "Kunlin, is what you said true? This is not a joke! Master, I have been so worried about these victims recently, you Don't make fun of this house!"

"It's true! It's true! How dare the students make fun of Fu Zun on such a question?"

Mu Youwei hastily confirmed the authenticity of the news.

Madden and Deng couldn't sit still any longer, they stood up and walked back and forth in front of the table for a few steps, then stopped, looked at Mu Youwei and said in a low voice with some small expectations: "Tell me in detail!"

Mu Youwei smiled, leaned forward and explained in a low voice: "Master Fu, just now a group of visiting groups from Yunzhou County outside the pass came to the Fuya. It is said that the team organized by the Yunzhou County government came to the pass. Purchasing some materials that are scarce outside the customs.

The students also read their documents, and it was indeed printed by the Yunzhou County government.

Originally, this is nothing, you need to purchase any materials, you can go directly to the market to buy them.

But they said that the quantity is too large and they need to cooperate with the government to purchase.

If the students thought this way, we might get a commission from it, so we invited them into the government office to start a detailed discussion.

But during the conversation, they revealed another meaning, that is, the Yunzhou government is not only short of supplies, but also short of people!
Moreover, they are willing to exchange seven catties of grain for a young man, and two catties of grain for women, girls and children to buy the population to fill Yunzhou County.

It's just that we need to send people outside the Liaoyun pass. "

"What?! Isn't this just asking me to sell the people under my government? They are all people under my government! As the parents and officials of Xining, they are like my brothers and sisters. How can you do something so unconscionable as selling your siblings for food?!"

Ma Deng and Deng Shi, the prefects of Xining Prefecture, began to yell with unsightly expressions.

But Mu Youwei went one step further, and then whispered: "The students also told them so, but then they raised the price to ten catties for young adults, and five catties for women and children..."

Ma Denghe, who had a bad complexion just now, turned from cloudy to sunny in an instant, rubbed his chin and thought: "Well, these people will definitely die in the future if they stay in Xining Mansion without relief.

It's better to let them go to Yunzhou County to ask for a livelihood, which is the only thing that the parental official in this government can do for their siblings and friends.

Have you asked clearly?How many people do they want?About when? "

Mu Youwei immediately showed an expression that he knew you would be like this, but then quickly restrained himself, and replied in a low voice: "The more the better, the sooner the better!"

Ma Denghe nodded, and then said: "Okay, then send people out of the customs in several batches, each batch of 10 people, young and strong, women and children will be sent out together in the form of families to make a living, lest they say that the government let their flesh and blood Separated, as for the elderly in these families, they will be sent together as a surrogate, and it depends on Yunzhou County.

The new guard at Liaoyun Pass also has some friendship with him.

In this way, the government will write a letter to him, let a person go out, and the government will give him a catty of grain. Thinking about it this way, it shouldn't be a problem, right? "

Mu Youwei: "Fu Zun is wise! The students will do it now!"

……

After a while, Muyouwei went down to arrange the sale... oh, let's not send the people away.

The prefect Ma Denghe began to recall the recent food prices on the market.

"Hiss, it seems that the food on the market has almost risen to the point of a tael of silver a bucket recently.

Then the government will send one hundred thousand at a time, isn't it just a fight for one young man, a fight for two women, girls and children...

Hiss... It's done!sent! ..."
