Being robbed by Zhang Tieniu, the yamen servant was dumbfounded.
"Are you a fisherman from Qingpu Village?"
Zhao Xun thought to himself that if he really wanted to sleep, someone would hand him a pillow.
He was just about to find some local villagers to inquire about the monsters, but unexpectedly someone came to him.
"You come with me."
Zhao Xun turned around and walked towards the Yamen.
Zhang Tieniu was stunned and looked at the Yamen servant.
The yamen servant quickly said: "The imperial envoy tells you to follow, just follow."
Zhang Tieniu then followed Zhao Xun into the Yamen.
This was his first time entering the Yamen. In the past, he had only looked outside from a distance, not even daring to get closer.
The yamen was really wealthy, and the bluestone pavement in this house really made his mouth water with envy.
Zhang Tieniu really didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to come to the Yamen in person.
It's really a blessing to have this experience.
Zhang Tieniu discovered that the imperial envoy was not very old, probably less than twenty years old.
It is true that since ancient times heroes have emerged from youth.
Zhang Tieniu did not dare to say anything and followed Zhao Xun eagerly.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Zhao Xun stopped. Zhang Tieniu looked up and found several officials standing there.
Although Zhang Tieniu couldn't tell what kind of officials these were, he could confirm that they were officials.
There is a huge difference between officials and officials. Zhang Tieniu knows a trick, that is, officials are the ones with patches on their chests, and officials are the ones without patches.
It is a bit strange to say that the status of officials is obviously higher, so why are the officials patched and not the officials?
In their fishermen's homes, only poor people would wear patches.
Hey, never mind that.
He came here to ask exactly when the sea was opened, and why he cared about these things.
In front of so many noble people, Zhang Tieniu did not dare to speak actively, and stood there naively waiting for the noble people to ask questions.
Zhao Xun nodded to Inspector Wan and said, "Insurgent Wan, this is Zhang Tieniu, a fisherman I met outside the Yamen."
"You came to the Yamen to ask when we can open the sea for fishing, right?"
Zhao Xun turned to Zhang Tieniu and asked in a deep voice.
"My lord, our family is in trouble. It's the same with other families in the fishing village. We can't go out to sea to fish, and everyone's life is really hard."
When Zhang Tieniu said this, Wan Jishi's expression changed drastically.
A fisherman who appeared out of nowhere was bumped into by the Imperial Envoy. What a coincidence.
The key is that Zhang Tieniu's life is miserable and he can't open the pot.
Although it is probably true, what will the Imperial Envoy think after hearing this?
Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy should think that it’s because of the inaction of Ningzhou’s parents and officials, right?
But Wan Cishi was really wronged.
Ningzhou has a special geographical location. Most of the local people make a living by fishing, and very few farm.
Suddenly fishing is no longer possible, which will naturally have a huge impact on the people.
But Governor Wan really had no other option.
He knew clearly that he would be scolded for issuing a sea ban at this time, so he could only bite the bullet and issue this order.
No matter what, someone should take this responsibility.
If the common people want to poke his spine, poke his spine, and if they want to scold his mother, then scold his mother.
They felt better after being scolded.
Wan Cishi also wanted to minimize losses by doing this.
Where there is life, there is hope.
But the problem is that if we continue to consume like this, I'm afraid my iron-clad body won't be able to bear it anymore.
"Have you ever seen with your own eyes what a monster looks like?"
Zhao Xun asked in a deep voice.
"This does not..."
Zhang Tieniu answered truthfully.
He scratched his head and said: "There are several people in the village who went to sea and never came back. It is said that they were eaten by monsters. I wonder if anyone who has seen monsters will not survive, right?"
Zhao Xun thought about it carefully and realized that what Zhang Tieniu said was reasonable.
Anyone who has the opportunity to see a monster will most likely not be able to escape alive.
After all, they are all mortals of flesh and blood. How can they fight against monsters that are much more ferocious than wild beasts with only their brute strength?
You must know that even practitioners should be wary of these guys.
"Take me to Qingpu Village."
Zhao Xun thought for a moment and gave the order without hesitation.
"This...my house has only four walls, so I won't be able to entertain you if you come."
Zhang Tieniu had a bitter look on his face.
"Shi Wan, please order someone to bring some food."
Zhao Xun turned to Wan Ci Shidao.
At this time, every family can be saved, and every household can be saved.
Zhao Xun knew that he could not save everyone, but he had to do his best to keep his conscience clear.
"I obey my orders."
Governor Wan responded quickly.
There is still some food stored in the yamen.
At this time, he naturally had to obey the imperial envoy's orders.
...
...
When yamen officials travel, they naturally do so with great fanfare.
Zhao Xun actually doesn't like such a big battle, but it's a rule and it's inevitable.
Instead of wasting too much time on this kind of thing, it would be better to spend more energy on dealing with the monsters.
At present, monsters have become the biggest hidden danger ravaging the southeast.
As long as the monster is not eliminated, countless fishermen like Zhang Tieniu will never be able to live in peace.
Zhao Xun had also visited a fishing village in his previous life, but this Qingpu Village was very different from the fishing village in his impression.
The entire fishing village is dilapidated, and there is an air of decadence from the inside out.
Moreover, there was a rancid fish smell in the air, mixed with the smell of feces and urine, which was absolutely disgusting.
Zhao Xun forced himself not to spit it out.
His life in his previous life was not bad. As for the great Zhou Dynasty, where he lived in fine clothing and food all day long, his living conditions were too generous, which directly resulted in too little contact with the poor people.
Even the poor people in Chang'an City will not be as miserable as the people in Qingpu Village in Ningzhou.
After all, he was at the feet of the emperor, and Emperor Xianlong also wanted to be proud of himself, so he would do even the most honorable projects.
But the situation is different locally.
It would be fine if the government did not plunder the people's wealth and anointing. How could they specifically help the people?
"Is the Imperial Envoy okay?"
Wan Jishi came up to ask with great concern.
"I'm fine, let's continue walking in."
Zhao Xun told himself in his heart to stay calm.
The Yamen officials opened the way with great fanfare.
The fishermen in Qingpu Village all hid at home and did not dare to show their faces.
In their minds, this was the first time that the government took the initiative to come. What was the purpose of such a big battle?
Isn't it here to collect taxes?
There are so many types of government taxes these days, and they don't know why there are so many obvious ones.
But things are different now.
Everyone can't go fishing, and there is no income. If you don't even have enough to eat, how can you afford to pay the exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes?
If the government wants to levy taxes, it must at least open the sea first, right?
Close the doors and lock the windows, close the doors and lock the windows.
If you can hide, then hide. If you can't hide, then think of another way.
Hey, isn't that Zhang Tieniu...
Why is he walking in the front? Isn't he working for the government?
