Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1612 Chaos
There were already enough victims in Chang'an City, and the food they needed made Qin Tian a little distressed.

And just when Qin Tian was anxious about the food and grass for these victims, a yamen servant hurried over.

"My lord, it's not good, something serious happened."

Qin Tian was a little overwhelmed, and after hearing this, he felt more and more tight in his chest.

But he quickly calmed himself down and asked, "What happened?"

"My lord, the disaster victims, the disaster victims flooded into Chang'an City, many, many disaster victims."

Hearing that the disaster victims poured into Chang'an City, Qin Tian's expression froze: "What's going on, where are there so many disaster victims?"

"They are all disaster victims from nearby states and counties. They don't know where they got the news, saying that the Chang'an City Welfare Institute can take them in, let them have a place to live, and have enough food, and then they all come one after another, little grandpa. , so many disaster victims came all at once, what should we do?"

After understanding what was going on, Qin Tian immediately snorted angrily: "The officials of the prefectures and counties are useless, can't they even help these people?"

Although they are all the people of Tang Dynasty, the people in one place have a local official to help them take care of them. Otherwise, all the victims will go to one place. Wouldn't it be unfair to the local officials?
"Order to let officials from all states and counties come to Chang'an City as soon as possible. If anyone comes late, don't want the Usha on his head."

Qin Tian was very angry, one could even say very angry.

When he said this, he bit his lip tightly.

The emergence of this kind of situation will disrupt his plan and make his orphanage plan aborted.

Once the orphanage cannot be maintained, there will be voices of opposition above the court.

And if the orphanage died young, it would be difficult to pick it up again in the future.

This is the welfare that Qin Tian seeks for the people of the Tang Dynasty, and he does not allow anyone to destroy it.

After the order went on like this, someone immediately passed on his words, but the yamen servant still had a look of embarrassment on his face, and said: "Little Lord, what should we do with these disaster victims now, do you want your subordinates to drive them out of Chang'an City?"

This yamen servant was a smart man, and he had clearly seen that the arrival of these refugees made Qin Tian unhappy.

However, Qin Tian shook his head: "They have already come to Chang'an City. If we drive them out, I'm afraid it will make things even more chaotic. Let our people set up porridge tents in Chang'an City to help them. The orphanage will not be closed for the time being. Let them go, only people from Chang'an City are eligible to go to the orphanage, but I have to find a place for them to escape the cold, clothes and food, I will find a way."

"Here!"

The yamen servant retreated after receiving the order, but Qin Tian showed a melancholy expression. He Qin Tian had done a lot of things in the past ten years, but he was rarely as tight as this time.

His Qin family still has some food, which can be used for rescue. Even if the money of their entire Qin family is obtained, it is very easy to rescue these people.

But in this way, their Qin family will be much weaker.

He, Qin Tian, ​​really wanted to help others, but he didn't want to help others by weakening himself. Although he was a bit selfish, there were so many people in the Qin family who had to eat, so he had to think about them.

He has already brought a lot of grain and grass from the Qin family to help the people, let him continue to take it, not to mention his heartache, even Tang Rong and Lu Huaniang would not agree to it.

Therefore, if we want to solve the food and grass problem of these people, we have to think of a new way.

The wind and snow had stopped, but the sky was gloomy, and it might fall again at any time.

Qin Tian looked up at the sky, and then went to Duke Lu's mansion.

As soon as he arrived at the house, Cheng Yaojin had a dark face, and seemed a little unwelcome to him.

"Boy, now you know that you have stabbed a hornet's nest. Now that there are so many refugees in Chang'an City, you know that things are difficult. For many people, it takes a lot of effort to satisfy the food of a family of three. Now With so many people opening their mouths to eat, how much food do you bring?"

Cheng Yaojin said it bitterly, as if he hated him for being too lenient, but Qin Tian was shameless and said with a smile: "No matter how difficult it is for Duke Lu to speak, you have to do it. I know that Duke Lu is nice guy..."

"If you want me to donate food, don't talk about it."

Seeing Qin Tian coming, Cheng Yaojin knew why he came. He had already donated clothes and food, so he was not happy to ask him to continue donating.

Fools, it’s enough to be one time, no one wants to be a second time.

Qin Tian smiled wryly, and said: "The matter is urgent, so we need some food and grass relief. Duke Lu donates a little, and it will benefit you in the future. I will never forget Duke Lu."

Cheng Yaojin snorted, but after a while, he still ordered someone to get some food and grass for Qin Tian. After all, he couldn't ignore Qin Tian. Moreover, with Qin Tian's promise, it was better than anything else. .

Some of the recent food and grass were brought out by Qin Tian alone, and he felt that it would be no harm if he took out some. Moreover, the difference between what he brought out and what Qin Tian took out was too great.

After Cheng Yaojin brought some out here, Qin Tian didn't stay long, and immediately went to the house of Yu Chigong and the others. These people have a good relationship with Qin Tian, ​​and they have made money following Qin Tian all these years A lot of money, so Qin Tian needed help, they didn't stand by and donated some more.

However, so many refugees cannot be solved by a few princes, so what Qin Tian can do is to continue to find people to donate. As for the imperial household department, Qin Tian has ordered them to prepare as soon as possible. Food and grass, but now it is the cold winter season, the transportation of grain is very difficult, if you want to buy, the price of grain has risen, compared with their household department, it needs a lot of cost, but the tax has not been collected, and the household department has no extra money to buy this.

Of course, it doesn't mean that the Ministry of Accounting has no money, but that the Ministry of Accounting's money already has a place to go, and not much is used for disaster relief, and other things cannot be embezzled.

After getting some food, grass and clothes from Cheng Yaojin and the others, Qin Tian went to look for those family members and dignitaries again, hoping that they could lend a helping hand.

These dignitaries did not donate much before, but now, Qin Tian personally came to the door, hoping that they would give him Qin Tian a face.

The first thing Qin Tian looked for was an official named Wang Yuan.

Qin Tian knew that this Wang Yuan was not only an official, but also a businessman. He opened several shops in the name of his relatives in Chang'an City, designed brothels, casinos, etc., so he was quite rich.

For such a person, it shouldn't be a problem to ask him to donate some food and grass, right?
