Chapter 235 Dispatch Funds
After hearing Geng Guanyu's words, the official shivered with fright, and he was sure that there was no lie in what Geng Guanyu said, and he was absolutely serious.

The last time Geng Guanyu was merciful, but this time he will never be soft-hearted to himself, because he has already touched the other party's bottom line.

Perhaps he had been waiting for the real test for a long time, so when he was taken down, he didn't struggle at all, and everyone present couldn't help being shocked by his calmness.

After the official was beheaded, everyone was very panicked. Usually they followed this official to do a lot of evil, but now their immediate boss has been beheaded. Waiting for their results, it must not be much better.

Basically everyone was anxiously waiting for their own trial, and finally Geng Guanyu sat in the seat that originally belonged to the official, and said: "You have been following him for so long and have so many lives in your hands, I I can't let you off so easily!"

"Cut them together!"

The words just now killed them as easily as a god of death, and determined their life and death. Some people have to spare their lives if they don't want to die, but Geng Guanyu is indifferent. Be influenced by their cries.

The things here are the fastest they have completed since they came out. This official has no skills, but he is very greedy.

As long as he reforms well here, he still has a chance to return to Jincheng in the future, but since he didn't choose to do so, he chose to oppress the residents here, and kept accumulating money for himself, so he thought about escaping in the future. , which in itself is a wrong choice.

The silver he had saved for so long was not used in the end, and was discovered by Geng Guanyu, which is also his death.

All the belongings of that official were confiscated and put into the national treasury. Geng Guanyu also specially took out half of it and distributed it to the people here to improve their lives. They have been suppressed all these years. It is too cruel, and their lives are miserable. , Many people were starved to death.

Therefore, the money was simply a life-saving straw for them. When Chengda opened, all the people flocked out, looking forward to freedom.

It can be said that if Geng Guanyu hadn't given out half of the silver to help them, there must have been many people looking forward to moving out of this place at the moment the city gate opened.

But because the emperor has noticed the things here, the residents are willing to believe in the emperor's ability, and also willing to believe that the emperor will protect them, so not many people leave.

Rui Ziying and the others didn't stay in this place for too long, and left in a hurry the next day. They only had one month, and ten days had passed in the blink of an eye. If they continued to stay here, they would be less Go to many places.

They believed that there must be more places that needed their help, so they hurried on their way and soon reached the fourth place.

This place has nothing to do with the officials, but suffered a drought, which can be said to be a natural disaster, and the officials in this place are good officials, and they will guarantee the basic needs of the missing people on weekdays.

But because there is no rain all year round, the crops here have been useless, and the lives of the people cannot be guaranteed. Even if the officials have moved out of their private treasury, there is no way to guarantee the lives of so many people, so he Apply for funds from the emperor.

Geng Guanyu actually wanted to transfer a certain amount of funds to come here, but thinking that there must be other reasons for being speechless here, so he decided to come here to have a look.

When they arrived at the place, they realized how terrible the drought caused by the lack of rain all year round was. There were many holes in the ground. Because it hadn't rained for a long time, the residents here were all dry. Yes, not even a drop of water could be seen in the well.

As the officials here said, many people have already applied for this place, but there are still some old, weak, sick and disabled who continue to stay here, and if their living needs are to be guaranteed, they must be provided with one meal a day, otherwise You can only watch them starve to death.

Officials naturally couldn't bear to watch the residents under their jurisdiction starve to death, not to mention that there were so many innocent children.

But he couldn't figure out why it didn't rain on their side. Maybe it was because the officials were superstitious. He also specially invited people to pray for rain, and the mage had already done it more than a dozen times, but it didn't work. .

Rui Ziying also felt very puzzled, why didn't it rain in this place?
It happened that she saw a fish bomb in the shopping mall, and she suddenly felt hopeful, but because she couldn't use it in front of so many people, she decided to find out why the water was cut off in this place first, and then let it go. next rain.

We can't continue to watch the drought here, and the people have no crops. How can their lives be guaranteed?

Even if Geng Guanyu sent some funds from the treasury to make up for it, it still cannot guarantee their future life.

After all, there are so many people, so many mouths waiting to eat, without any labor force, how can they afford it?

"Even if there is no rain in your place all year round, the rest of the place shouldn't be as safe as it should be. Could it be that the river is cut off?"

Zhou Jie said: "Because there is no rain all year round, even the reservoir is dry. There is really no way to continue to supply water here. As for the river, I have sent someone to check it. There is no problem, but the water just doesn't know where to go. Where is it?"

Rui Ziying and the others decided to take a look at the upper reaches of the river first. Because of the long distance, Zhou Jie specially sent them a carriage, and they went all the way along the upper reaches of the river.

Zhou Jie originally wanted to entertain Rui Ziying and the others, but when he thought about their current situation here, even though he gave up this idea.

The people here were already hungry enough to gnaw tree bark and eat dirt, Rui Ziying and the others brought dry food with them, so naturally they wouldn't bother him.

Although Zhou Jie felt sorry, but there was no other way.

I just hope that this drought can end soon, so that people's lives will be improved.

Fortunately, the emperor finally paid attention to their situation and sent someone to deal with this matter. If the delay continues, the consequences will be disastrous.

Although no funds were sent, at least four people were sent.
