After the rebirth, the cannon fodder left the plot

However, when the people Qin Jixian sent to inquire about it, they felt a little embarrassed.

It's just because the stones were brought from Qingzhou Prefecture, and the ferry was built by the magistrate of Yuhe County, which was also hit by the disaster on the other side. The ferry was built to facilitate the transportation of food to the refugees.

As for where the food came from, people sent by Qin Jixian also came to inquire.

The magistrate of Yuhe County owns a lot of land in Qingzhou Prefecture. He was originally a grain chief, and he is also very bullish. The court didn't give a grain of relief food. He just raised refugees for several months, and he almost couldn't make money even at a loss. yell.

Qin Jixian didn't believe it at first when he heard this, but when his confidant analyzed the actions of the magistrate on the other side from the beginning of the flood to the present, no matter how he counted it as losing money, he couldn't help but click his tongue.

This person has worked hard to become an official, he has never heard of an official who has to pay for himself, he is really the biggest fool in the world.

However, he just admires it very much, after all, he is not that capable as a prince.

Uh, it's not that he's not that capable, but that he has his own army to support, unlike Shen Jingcheng who feeds the whole family by himself, so with so much land, it's only natural for him to have a little wealth to support refugees.

What's more, Shen Jingcheng didn't count as raising refugees, didn't the refugees also work for him to open up wasteland?In this way, it is hard to say whether it is losing money or not!

It's just a pity, that person is not an official from his Yanzhou mansion, if this is from Yanzhou mansion, how much peace of mind I would have now!

However, who said that if he is not an official of his Yanzhou mansion, he can't do things for his Yanzhou mansion?
Thinking of this, Qin Ji's eyes lit up.

You know, it's much closer and more convenient to Qingzhou Mansion here than to Yuhe County on the other side.

"Go and spread the news that there are people in Shenjia Village, Qingshan County, Qingzhou Prefecture who are looking for hired workers. Refugees can earn a living in the past, which is better than here and the clear soup and lack of water for disaster relief." Qin Jixian said thoughtfully to his confidant .

It's a pity that he doesn't have any other brothers entrusted in Qingzhou Mansion. As the prince of Yanzhou Mansion, and when the old emperor was suspicious, he didn't dare to ask the prefect of Qingzhou Mansion to transport stones to him, otherwise, He can still get the remaining stones from Shen Jingcheng, and the speed of filling the ditch will be faster.

Qin Jixian's confidants quickly spread the news. Apart from the strong laborers who were preparing to build the dam by the river, the refugees in Yanzhou Mansion also began to move towards Qingzhou Mansion in twos and threes like ants moving their house.

A few days later, when Fu Yu brought the news with the food, Gu Jin and Shen Jingcheng were a little dumbfounded.

Even if they have never been to Yanzhou, they also know that the disaster there is much worse than here. So many refugees, who don't go to Qingshan County sooner or later, suddenly flock to that side, which is not right no matter how they look.

"I've inquired about it. Someone spread the news that we were looking for hired workers, and those people came here." Fu Yu wiped his sweat and said to the two of them.

"Do you know where the news was distributed?" Shen Jingcheng asked.

"I didn't find out." Fu Yu shook his head and asked, "Could it be the refugees who came back."

"Probably not." Gu Jin said with a frown: "Those people went to repair the dam when they came back, and they came directly across the river from the lower reaches when they came back. It is impossible to have an intersection with Yanzhou Prefecture, unless someone from Yanzhou Prefecture has been to Qingshan County. Or someone came here from Yanzhou Mansion, but now is the time when the dam is busy, who will cross the river in a leisurely way?"

After Gu Jin's voice fell, everyone fell silent. This matter really doesn't make sense.

"It doesn't matter who spread the news now. The important thing is what to do with so many refugees coming to Shenjia Village. Our food is not enough to support so many people. If we don't get it right, there will be trouble." Gu Jin saw Several people were silent, frowning and speaking again.

"Let's reduce the labor cost." Shen Jingcheng took a deep breath, and said: "The original employment benefits remain the same, and the refugees who go to Yanzhou Prefecture only need to eat. They don't have a liter of food a day, so they don't want to work."

"Will this...will cause dissatisfaction among the refugees in Yanzhou Prefecture?" Gu Jin asked worriedly.

"If you are dissatisfied, go back to Yanzhou Mansion, or go to a place they are satisfied with. They are used to it when they beg for food." Shen Jingcheng is not in a good mood: "I will write another letter to the magistrate of Qingshan County and ask him to take care of it." Let’s do a little more, it’s his credit to get things done.”

Gu Jin was slightly relieved when he heard the words, it would indeed be better to have the government take care of him.

But at this moment, Jiang Zhengshu suddenly said: "How about I go back, there are so many refugees, even if they are taken care of by the government, it may not be easy to manage."

"Then... I will trouble you, sir." Shen Jingcheng stood up and gave him a deep bow, "No matter what happens, you must always take care of your health and never get tired."

"Understood, long-winded."

After Jiang Zhengshu finished speaking, he got up and went to the front yamen to tidy up and salute, and Fu Yu also got up to say goodbye and was about to go back to the grain shop. Before going out, he glanced at the room where Gu Xiu was, and saw the girl bowing her head coaxing the little baby to smile. , The corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up slightly.

"Why don't I go back, Mr. is old after all, I'm afraid I'll be tired from running around on the road." After several people left, Gu Jin raised his head to discuss with Shen Jingcheng.

"Sir, you are a woman, even if you are the master, it may not be convincing to manage refugees. Sir is different, firstly, he is a man, and secondly, most people will believe the old man's words and manage those people It will save a lot of effort than you." Shen Jingcheng started to take the letter paper as he spoke, preparing to write a letter to the magistrate of Qingshan County.

In fact, there was one more important sentence that he didn't say.

That is, Xiao Youping has not given up breastfeeding yet. If Gu Jin goes back, the child will definitely follow. There are everyone among the refugees. He is afraid that something will happen to their mother and child.

As soon as Gu Jin thought it was true, he didn't insist anymore, and quickly rolled up his sleeves and started rubbing ink for him.

Yes, this is how the world is like, men and women do the same thing, men will always be easily convinced by people, while women need to spend a lot of effort, but they may not be able to achieve the same results.

Sometimes she was very envious of the era when Gu Linger came here. The book said that men and women were equal there, as long as they worked hard, no matter whether they were men or women, they would get the same treatment.

In this way, Jiang Zhengshu followed Fu Yu back to Qingshan County. Before Fu Yu left, Shen Jingcheng handed him the letter to the magistrate of Qingshan County, and at the same time told him to distribute some words in Yanzhou Mansion.

The general meaning is that the reason why the immigrants in the past were treated well was because his master was the county magistrate of Yuhe County, so he would naturally treat the people under his jurisdiction better. It's not easy. It's impossible to get the same treatment as refugees in Yuhe County. It is recommended to try other places.

Fu Yu was very reliable in his work. He immediately spread the news after crossing the river. As soon as the news came out, the refugees who were preparing to go to Yanzhou Mansion a few days later immediately retreated.

If it's just the person in charge of the work eating, then it doesn't make sense for them to go. After all, they all have their own children. If only one person is full, how can the others live?
It's better to stay in Yanzhou Mansion, at least the whole family can have a bowl of clear soup with little water to drink.
