Dragging the family to flee famine?Don't be afraid, I have room to fill the granary

Chapter 173 Chapter 173: Nangong Ye’s reply

On the way back to Jiangdu, Tao Qiqi was always worried that her father would disown her and not believe that she was his daughter.

I worry that my grandparents favor sons over daughters and don’t like my granddaughter.

Although the grandparents only had one daughter, and they loved her mother very much, it didn't mean they liked grandchildren or anything.So Tao Qiqi will naturally be worried.

But now all the worries and concerns have disappeared and no longer exist.

Putting on the new clothes made by her grandmother, Tao Qiqi came out of the room, and then saw Xiaoyu also coming out of the room wearing the clothes made by her grandmother.

Looking at the sisters' outfit, Tao Qiqi stretched out her hand to signal Xiaoyu to come over and hold hands with her.

Xiaoyu ran to Tao Qiqi with a happy face, then took Tao Qiqi's hand, and the two walked to the dining room.

When we got to the dining room, the servants just happened to heat up the food and bring it out.

Then the family happily had dinner and went back to their room to sleep.

Tao Qiqi didn't rest well in the past few days on the mountain, but now that she's back, she finally had a good night's sleep.

But she couldn't go back to Jiangdu at the moment, so she simply waited for news from Nangong Ye in Changdao County.

Let's see if there is any way to drain the water.

But after wandering around Jinxiang County for a few times, Tao Qiqi gave up the idea of ​​digging ditches for drainage.

Just like Fu Shi said, if this water is drained out, the downstream areas will surely suffer.

At that time, Jinxiang County cannot be rescued, and another Anxiang County will have to be picked up.

Now Jinxiang County has been flooded, and even if the water is drained away, the houses in the villages will be too bad to live in.

Instead of spending a lot of time draining water and rebuilding each village, it would be better to relocate the villages.

And it would be great if the original Jinxiang County turned into a lake.

After the relocation of the villages is completed, the surrounding area will be built and fenced.With such a big lake here, there is no need to worry about drought in the future.

Of course, Anxiang County did not sit idly by and watch what happened in Jinxiang County.

Their magistrate An is also a good official.

After learning that Jinxiang County was flooded, I brought people over to see the situation, in order to know the situation in time and prepare them downstream.

But after seeing it, Magistrate An also knew that it was not suitable for drainage and opposed queuing.

In order to avoid accidents in the area under his jurisdiction, the magistrate of Anxiang brought the whole of Anxiang County to him this day.

Tao Qiqi just came back from the flooded Jinxiang County, and met the county magistrate An in the county government of Changdao County.

"How many of you are Miss Tao?" Looking at the guards who were dressed differently from the yamen servants, County Magistrate An asked.

Tao Qiqi heard that someone was looking for her, so she turned around and saw a man who seemed to be only 25 or [-] years old.

She was about to speak when Magistrate An saw her turn around but looked at her first and asked, "Is the girl's surname Tao?"

Tao Qiqi: "You are?"

Upon hearing this, Magistrate An naturally realized that he had guessed correctly, so he saluted Tao Qiqi and replied:
"The lower official is the county magistrate of Anxiang County, Anji. I heard about the flooding in Jinxiang County. Miss Tao is also here to deal with the matter, so she came to see everyone with our Anxiang County feelings."

Tao Qiqi: "It turns out to be Magistrate An. Since you're here, come in with me. Let's discuss it together and see if there is any way to solve the current problems in Jinxiang County."

"Yes." Anji agreed, and followed Tao Qiqi into the county government office.

As soon as Tao Qiqi entered the county government office, Shan Qing appeared at the gate of the county government office.

"Girl." Shan Qing quickly called out to Tao Qiqi.

Because Tao Qiqi has changed back into daughter's clothes since her grandmother gave her new clothes.

And now everyone knows that she is from a girl's family, so there is no need for her to travel disguised as a man.

When Tao Qiqi heard Shan Qing's voice, she hurriedly turned her head.

Afterwards, Shan Qing jumped off the horse and ran towards her.

Before Shan Qing could speak, Tao Qiqi anxiously asked, "How is it? Did you get a reply?"

Shan Qing looked at An Ji beside him.

Anji looked at Shan Qing's eyes and immediately knew what to do.So he said to Tao Qiqi: "If Miss Tao has something to do, I will go and find Magistrate Qi first."

"Okay." Tao Qiqi agreed, and then after An Ji left, Shan Qing took out a letter and a thick cloth bag from her arms and said:

"Master Nangong wrote a reply to the girl immediately after receiving the letter from the girl. At present, because there are still many things to deal with in Yongdu, Master Nangong trusts the girl the most, so he let the girl handle the matters here."

"The specific information about Mr. Nangong is written in this letter. Mr. Nangong asked me to deliver this package to you, girl."

"Okay." Tao Qiqi took the letter and began to read it.

After reading the letter, she put the letter in her pocket before taking the package in Shan Qing's hand.

This is the 10 taels of silver note prepared by Nangong Ye.

After Nangong Yesha returned to Yongdu, he later found out that the former emperor emptied more than half of the national treasury for the so-called expansion of the country.

Just to buy food from neighboring countries.

But after the money was taken, neither the people nor the food came back.

Now that disasters continue in the north and south, there is more than one Jinxiang county to be rescued from above, so only 10 taels of Tao Qiqi can be given to them for the time being.

Of course, the materials that Xiao Hei searched at the beginning would not affect the country, so Tao Qiqi naturally didn't need to feel guilty.

The worst thing about Nangong Ye is that she will find a way to make amends for him in the future.

After receiving the banknote, Tao Qiqi went to the county government office.

Now she has 11 to nearly 12 banknotes in her hand, which is completely enough start-up funds to help ordinary people rebuild their homes.

If it's not enough later, it shouldn't be too much difference. If it doesn't work, she will pay for it out of her own pocket.

Who let her still have a cheat in her hand, she should take out tens of thousands of taels to help the common people.

When Tao Qiqiyi came to the county government office to wait in the living room, Gu County Magistrate smiled at Tao Qiqi and said, "Miss Tao, this is just brought by County Magistrate An. This is a wish from Magistrate An and the entire Anxiang County .A total of 3000 taels. 200 taels were personally donated by An County Magistrate, and I made up the whole thing.”

Looking at the bank note handed over by the magistrate Gu, there is another 3000 taels.

The starting capital soon exceeded 12 taels.

Tao Qiqi naturally refused anyone who came, not to mention being polite. She took the banknote and said to Magistrate An: "Then I would like to thank Magistrate An and all the folks in Anxiang County on behalf of the people of Jinxiang County."

Seeing that Tao Qiqi had accepted the money, Magistrate An immediately started talking about today's topic: "Miss Tao, I wonder what the superiors have decided on Jinxiang County now? Should we prepare to dig canals to divert the water or relocate it?"

Tao Qiqi heard what Magistrate An said, so she naturally understood the purpose of his trip.

Of course, now that the situation has been figured out, there is no need for her to hide it.

So he slowly said: "Don't worry, Magistrate An, I have been checking the situation in Jinxiang County these two days. At present, we all know that the plan of digging canals and diversion is very risky. Therefore, the superiors decided to move Jinxiang County. "

"It just so happens that the two county magistrates are here today. I want to discuss the relocation plan with the two county magistrates."
