Fu Rang was the first to speak, "Jinyiwei!"

"What?" Laojun shrank in fright and panicked.

Zhu Yunxi gave him a cold look and said to the guards, "Go in and take a look!"

But the next second, the trembling old soldier had the courage to lock the door quickly.

"What's wrong with the Jinyi Guards? No one can enter without the order of our county magistrate. I will just listen to the county magistrate's orders!" the old army shouted.

Fu Rang said angrily, touching the handle of the short knife, "Aren't you afraid of death?"

"I'm afraid of starving to death!" Lao Jun rolled his eyes and suddenly turned into a smiling face, "Everyone, I'm just a man the size of an ant. I'd be drowned by just a spit of your saliva. It's not worth your care, so just be kind.

Don’t make me lose my job?”

"If I don't let you in, you'll probably kill me now! But if you let me in, the county magistrate will throw me out of the city, and I'll be dead! I have old arms and legs, and without this job, I can't even beg for food.

No place!”

"Everyone, if you have something to do, go to the county magistrate or all the adults. I am an old man who just makes a living!"

Zhu Yunxi heard this impatiently, "Fu Rang, are you a dead person?"

Fu Rang let go of the handle of the knife, grabbed Lao Jun with his big hand, and threw it aside. Then he kicked open the door with a bang. Remember the website address: m.wxsy.

When the wooden door fell apart, it also alarmed the people in the warehouse.

There are mountains of supplies in the warehouse. If they were elsewhere, they would be classified in detail and used for various purposes. But here, they are all arranged in a mess.

In the warehouse, there were actually many people rummaging through the supplies. It seemed that they had just found what they wanted, and they had all been put on wheelbarrows before they had time to take them away.

And the driver who was looking for Coptis chinensis for his family had a pack of medicinal materials under his arm and a bag in his hand, and was about to go out.

"What are you doing?" someone asked in surprise.

Li Jinglong stepped forward directly and shouted, "Jinyiwei is on duty!" As he said that, he grabbed the person who asked, "Who are you?"

"Let go, let go!" The man struggled, "I am the clerk of the county government office!"

"What are you doing with these disaster relief supplies?" Li Jinglong continued to ask angrily.

The man said loudly, "Your Majesty asked me to come here to get it, how do I know what to do?"

At this time, the driver who came in to look for Huang Lian was also grabbed by the neck and kicked down. The bag in his hand was scattered all over the floor, and it was covered with large white grains of salt.

"Don't you want coptis? What are you doing with the salt?" Tie Xuan asked angrily.

"My lord has said, what can I get for what I need at home?" Seeing these people staring at them, the coachman pulled his neck and said, "Let me tell you, my lord is a classic, do you have any royal laws?"

Zhu Yunxi's heart was filled with indescribable sadness.

The Lord asked me to take it!

The adults told me to take whatever is missing at home!

What kind of fucking adults are these?

The victims of the disaster outside the city are hanging on the line of life and death, and these supplies have become the exclusive property of these adults!

Food and supplies were sent from all over the world, but they were actually delivered to the hands of these adults!

What's even more sad is that they still take it for granted.

In the Ming Dynasty, the all-conquering Jinyiwei could even enter the prime minister's home, but they couldn't even enter the warehouse in this county! What a big, big joke.

If it is taken from the people, where will it be used?

"Wang Fa? I am Wang Fa!" Zhu Yunxi sneered.

"I didn't expect that Gong County would be so corrupt. I really can't imagine how heartless and well-dressed a beast it is to think of these disaster relief things!" Tie Xuan sighed, "Third Master, I want to see that person.

County Grandpa!"

"Gone!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "Li Jinglong!"

"exist!"

"Move the troops!"

~~~

"It's not good! It's not good!"

Lao Jun stumbled to the county government office and was directly stopped by the guards at the door.

"Stop, what's the etiquette of yelling?"

Lao Jun gasped, "Go and tell the county magistrate that the Jin Yiwei is here and has entered the warehouse!"

"Jinyiwei?" the guard at the door asked curiously, "Why are you suffering from hysteria? Where did the Jinyiwei come from in this place?"

"I'm so old, but I can still talk nonsense!" Lao Jun patted his thigh, "Dozens of guards in uniform kicked open the door. Report it to your lord quickly, or something will happen if it's too late!"

"Your Excellency is not here. He went to the He Mansion for a banquet!" The guard at the door slapped his forehead, and then started shouting, "Quick, hurry up and call the county magistrate!"

The calm county government suddenly became noisy.

At the street corner, the city gate soldier who was strolling over to report the news curled his lips and left without looking back when he saw this scene.

The He family is one of the most prominent families in the county. They have property at home, a village in the countryside, and some of their sons and nephews are officials working in the yamen. The mansion is more luxurious than the county yamen, with carved beams and painted edifices.

In the back house, a banquet was being held.

The county magistrate is in the chief position, and the old man of the He family is at the bottom.

At the banquet, there were also some prominent figures in the city, all of whom were deliberately trying to please him.

"Hey, this is too much in a year of great calamity!"

The county magistrate looked at a table full of delicacies, including chicken, duck and fish, and said with a smile, "That's too much!"

"It's not too much!" Mr. He said with a smile, "Since the great disaster, the county magistrate has been unable to sleep at night. He has been working hard for our county. He has lost twice as much weight. These things are all seen by the old man."

"It's all within our scope!" the county official said with a smile.

"It's in my eyes, but it hurts in my heart!" Mr. He smiled again, "Your Excellency, you are so worried about our county. So, with a shy face, I asked my family to prepare some thin dishes to express my gratitude!"

"How did this happen?" the county official said with a smile.

"That's right, that's right!" At the banquet, a person who was engaged in the medicinal business and opened a drug store in the city greeted him, "In such a hurry, there was nothing delicious to eat. This is already a grievance for you!"

Mr. He smiled and said, "Your Excellency, please try this roasted sea cucumber with green onions! It's a famous dish here!"

The county official said reservedly, "That would be disrespectful!" As he said that, he picked up a chopstick, put it in his mouth, took two bites, nodded and said, "Well, not bad, not bad!" After saying that, he put down his chopsticks again and shook his head.

, "At this time, I really have no intention of eating, hey!"

"Your Excellency is really concerned about the country and its people!" Mr. He served the wine to Man Man enthusiastically, "However, Your Excellency, you don't have to worry too much. In the Ming Dynasty, there was no natural disaster anywhere in the world. This has been the case for thousands of years.

There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain!"

The county magistrate sighed, "That's what I say, but the disaster this time was too great. If nothing else, our county's treasury was completely empty. The floods receded the next day, and we didn't even have the money to repair the city wall!"

"

"What are you worrying about? I'm waiting here, so you don't have to worry about it!" Mr. He said with a smile, "All the big families in this county are here. If you have any errands in the future, just let me know!"

"No, no, no!" The county magistrate waved his hands repeatedly, "I know that you are all good people who are willing to do charity, but you don't get paid for your merits. We can't use your money to build the city wall and other things! We can't use your money to settle the people, let alone!"

"How can this be no reward for no merit? We have something to ask you, sir!" Mr. He said with a smile, "Since the flood, the old man's family in Zhuangzi outside the city has been unable to harvest anything, and all the livestock and horses have died.

It’s a flood. If only Lao Chan’s family is the only one, that’s all. We can just tighten our belts and get through it!”

"But there are hundreds of tenants in the house, so I can't ignore them!" As he said, he filled the county magistrate with wine and continued, "That's thousands of mouths!"

"Do you want food?" The smile on the county official's face suddenly disappeared and he said seriously, "It's not the autumn harvest yet, and our small county already has insufficient food in its storehouse. When the disaster strikes, it becomes even worse. Besides, the county government office has

There are so many mouths up and down, and their families also want to eat!"

"Although the imperial court has sent some relief food, I don't dare to tamper with it at will!"

"How dare I ask for it!" Mr. He said with a smile, "I would like to ask you to sell some for the sake of past friendship. I am willing to pay a high price and will never live up to my words!"

Old fox!

The county magistrate sneered in his heart. In the year of great disaster, there is no food worth anything. In the next few years, the price of food around Henan will remain high. This old man is only thinking about making money.

"Well, that's not impossible to say!" the county official said with a meaningful smile.

At the banquet, Liu Dongjia, the largest landowner in the county, also smiled and said, "My lord, I have some extravagant wealth at home, which can be used for disaster relief!"

"Yes!" The county official nodded, "I've heard that Liu Dong's family is generous!"

"You should do your duty when you serve your lord!" Liu Dongjia said with a smile, "It's just that many people in the village were frightened by this big disaster. There was a big flood and nothing was harvested. It was about to be lifted.

The family is begging for food and has found a villain!"

"What they mean is to sell the land to villains. But the amount is too big, and villains don't dare to make the decision, for fear of being known as hoarding land!"

The county official smiled and said, "As long as it's reasonable, there's a sales contract, and the ownership can be transferred in the Yamen!"

"Your Excellency, you are so enlightened!" Liu Dongjia said with a smile, "Looking back, I will take the land deed to the county government office and ask Your Excellency to seal it in person!"

The transfer of title deeds requires both parties to be willing to do so and the transaction is fair. The county government office can handle the transfer, but leaving it to the county magistrate is obviously something fishy.

The man who sells medicinal materials and opens a medicine shop also smiled and said, "Sir, I heard that we are given a lot of medicinal materials!"

"That's for epidemic prevention!" the county official said with a smile.

"This catastrophic disaster has wiped out all the medicinal materials in the villain's shop. Can you please show me your kindness? I am also willing to buy and sell at market price."

"It's not good, sir!"

With a bang, the door was pushed open, and the county's housekeeper rolled in and crawled in.

"What kind of behavior is this?" the county official said angrily.

The steward crawled to the side of the county magistrate on his hands and knees and spoke.

"What?" The county magistrate was shocked, "Quick, follow me back to the Yamen!"
