The blessing of the splendid farm family is married to the world

Chapter 180 Help
"Lord Zong, what are you doing?" Xia Yunfeng looked at the soldiers behind Zong Che behind his hands, "Although you are two ranks higher than me in official rank, strictly speaking, you are not as powerful as this official."

"If you act like this, you will cause trouble." As he spoke, he folded his hands in grief again, "Do you know how severe this plague is? If you don't deal with it, it will spread to the inner city. If you don't treat those infected Take people out and burn them to death, and the whole Daming will be affected by that time, can you bear the responsibility?"

Zong Che drove his horse forward slowly, looked at the wide road in the inner city, and asked to the side: "I heard that when Huoliang City was built, is the inner city bigger than the outer city?"

The soldier who was asked was a native of Huoliang City. Hearing what Xia Zhifu said just now, his fist was hardened, and he hurriedly replied: "What the governor said is not bad."

Zong Che nodded, and the horse walked through the street, and the lush and lush scenes inside the walls could be seen everywhere.

Pointing to these houses, he said: "Ten families will live in one family, and the houses will be vacated. Also, on special occasions, let them donate money and food to those who have money."

Xia Yunfeng followed closely, feeling so angry that he stomped his feet: "Master Zong, you are forcing the people to rebel against the government."

Zong Che said with a smile: "How could it be? Everyone is just trying to survive. Surviving together is our common goal. If anyone refuses to accept it, I have no choice but to be a robber first."

An Xu: Is there any difference between you and the robber now?

But if you want to call on these people to use their spirit to donate money, it's almost like a dream, so you really have to be a bit of a robber.

Then, under Zong Che's resolute actions, before it was dark, all the uninfected people in the outer city had been moved to the inner city, in several large gardens specially vacated.

The military doctors also met with the doctors in Fucheng. Among these doctors, those who were particularly benevolent and skilled went directly to the medical center in the outer city to accommodate all patients with fever and cough symptoms.

According to the disease, the medicine is prescribed on the spot.

There were also those who were more afraid of death, and these people gathered in the Governor's Mansion, holding the medical books that Zong Che had copied from the study in the mansion, and looking for diseases similar to these symptoms.

An Xu was not idle either, she organized the two thousand elite soldiers, numbered the formations, gave them some basic disinfection methods, and asked them to go to the houses in the outer city to disinfect them.

The sterilizing expert 84 disinfectant can't be formulated, but An Xu still knows a few soil disinfectants that are mainly compatible with lime water.

In addition, in addition to getting disinfectant, she also took the opportunity to arrange for a population survey of the city.

As for Zong Che, he was sitting outside the gate of the Governor's Mansion, waiting to receive donations.

But until the evening, few people came.

Zong Che got a little impatient, and was about to go back. He would bring someone to the door tomorrow for forced conscripts. When he turned around and saw An Xu approaching, a smile appeared on his face.

"No one came?" An Xu looked at the still empty bluestone floor.

"They probably dare not go out." Zong Che found a more reasonable explanation for those people.

An Xu wanted to roll her eyes, did she take her for a fool?

Wanting someone's money for no reason is not the same as grabbing it. These big families living in the inner city are probably scolding him to death in their hearts.Maybe someone went to the capital to sue.

An Xu said: "Let's go back first, let's think of a way."

Just at this moment, a carriage came into view.

The horse pulls a cart full of antique furniture, and the driver is an old family member, followed by a woman dressed as a woman.

An Xu took La Zongche's hand and reminded: "Someone has delivered supplies."

While talking, the woman walked up to her and saluted and said: "Little lady, her husband's family name is Bai. I heard that the official uniforms will collect money, so I can only do a little bit."

An Xu saw that the furniture above was made of high-quality pineapple wood, and said with a smile, "Madam Bai is kind."

It's just that the materials needed at this time are more effective than real money or direct food and medicinal materials.

Mrs. Bai said: "Don't laugh, the family really has no cash. The government will get more money from the pawn shop than I, a woman, can pawn."

An Xu: They are forced to be treated as things, and the impact seems to be not very good.

But Zong Che praised: "It would be great if you know how to advance and retreat like a rich household in Liangcheng."

An Xu didn't know what to say about him, so she promised Mrs. Bai that she would come to her directly in the future and send him away properly, so she said to Zong Che, "Can't you act as if you are short-handed?"

Zong Che: That's really impossible.

To be the absolute ruler of one side, one must act like the absolute ruler of one side. It is too polite, but it will be seen as a bully.

"Do you think we are easy to bully?" In a house crowded with more than a dozen families, the young man slammed his fist on the table, "It's just a small military officer, how dare he treat us like this. He is afraid Forget, there are people on it in every household of ours.”

On the main seat, the middle-aged man sat there with his sleeves tucked in, raised his eyelids and said, "Zhao Erlang, don't make such a fuss, after all, in name, the hundreds of thousands of troops outside are under his jurisdiction. "

"Uncle Mu, what do you mean?" The young man asked in surprise, "Whether you or your family are the ones with the most authority to speak in our northern territory, you don't want to pay for it, do you?"

"That's right, now is not the time for war, so why should we pay for it?" A fat man suddenly said loudly, attracting everyone's attention.

"Patriarch Su." Mu Wen said: "What you said makes sense, but half of the masters of the northern border have asked for money, so we can't just pretend we didn't hear it."

Another person said: "Isn't Patriarch Su's daughter engaged to a young man from the capital? Why don't you find someone to intercede?"

If they could intercede, the Su family would have left Huoliang City long ago.

Patriarch Su's expression was not good.

There were sudden hurried footsteps outside, and a middle-aged man with a mustache ran in. After entering, he greeted Mu Wen for a while before saying to Mu Wen, who was sitting in the main seat: "Master, someone is going to deliver something." gone."

"Who?"

Several voices asked questions at the same time.

Who, who is so unruly?
Those above them haven't said one, two, three, why did some people go out to please?

The middle-aged man didn't care about these noises until Mu Wen asked, "Who is in such a hurry?"

The middle-aged man wanted to smile, and said, "It's from the Bai family."

"Bai family, that prodigal son." Someone sneered, "Their family's things are not given away like this, and they will be coaxed to clean up sooner or later."

Mu Wen had never heard of this person before, and asked, "Which family is the Bai family?"

"Oh," the person who spoke just now turned to Mu Wen and explained, "The family living at the far end of the inner city has someone who was a second-rank official in the capital. As soon as the ancestor died, the whole family returned to their hometown. After not being an official, they accumulated some family property by doing business. Who would have expected that there would be such a loose descendant of Bai Yongfu. In addition, there was an old housekeeper in the family, who would appear from anywhere It’s not easy to come to a person and cry a few words, and he will use money to support others.”

"It's a good family business. It's only been five or six years since the old man of the Bai family passed away. His son is about to scatter all the money." Patriarch Su also knows about the Bai family's affairs. He was worried that after his death, the children in the family who had never experienced hardship would give away all the money in the family just like Bai Yongfu.

Therefore, Patriarch Su taught the sons of the family very harshly, but it was too much. His sons were pickier than each other. Even when the second prince invited their younger sister to perform, they were reluctant to buy the best silk flowers and dills to make clothes.

That's why Patriarch Su finished his exclamation, and immediately someone said harshly to him: "Patriarch Su and his sons are not bad compared to iron roosters, so you don't have to worry about it in the future."

Everyone already had something in their hearts, upon hearing this, Patriarch Su refuted that person with a dark face, and the two of them were about to quarrel.

Then someone persuaded: "We are discussing countermeasures, why are we arguing? The Bai family's money is released no matter what, but we can't do this."

Finally brought the topic back on track, everyone looked at Mu Wen.

Mu Wen said: "It's the first time that the northern half-lord has spoken to us. It's better to pay a little bit of the money."

"Then go out," a man suddenly slapped the table and stood up, "What is he collecting money for? Don't you want to buy food and medicine to buy people's hearts for those low-level people? We donate money at the front foot, and then we use the grain shop and medicine shop at the back foot." The price goes up."

This man's surname was Mao, and since he lived in the inner city, his family's assets must be very rich, and he also had relatives who were officials in the provincial capital outside.

Therefore, speak with confidence.

Mu Wen glanced at him and said, "Master Mao is a good idea, but this Zongdujun doesn't seem like a reasonable person. Now he can even occupy the Dujun Mansion built by the second prince, and the money he received is not enough to buy food." , don’t take all our shops away.”

"He dares," said Uncle Mao, his face contorted with anger, "Isn't he robbing us outright? If that's the case, why not ask us for food directly."

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent, as if what they said at the beginning was money, food and supplies.

This is really shameless for the purpose of stealing.

Mu Wen sighed, and said: "No matter how much, let's come out first. If the other party is really not satisfied, we will find a relationship and go to the capital to sue."

In Huoliangcheng, the Mu family has the most assets and the deepest background, so the words of the Mu family master are considered a certainty.

After everyone dispersed, the steward asked cautiously, "Master, why are you still trying to save that warlord?"

Mu Wen smiled and said: "I just received a letter from my aunt the day before yesterday, followed by a letter from my cousin, saying that Zong Dujun's wife is a relative of the Rong family. The old lady is the granddaughter, and the cousin is the granddaughter." My niece and daughter treated her like a daughter, saying that I was here and asked me to take care of one or two."

The housekeeper stopped talking now. You should listen to what the old aunt said.

If the old aunt hadn't returned to Mu's house to make decisions for his master back then, there wouldn't be the third master Mu who is a rich prince today.
