Chapter 325 Is Indeed a God-man
Xu Wenxun is a civil servant, so he has never seen such a scene before.

Fortunately, the scene was under control, so he said: "Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient. You can't eat these grains raw when you take them back."

Someone took the lead and said: "Officer dog, even if you can't eat it raw, I can't let you, an official dog, take it for nothing!"

"Yes, you colluded with the government and businessmen, just to starve us ordinary people to death!"

Xu Wenxun said in a cold voice: "Presumptuous! I am an official of the imperial court. How could you insult me ​​at will? Listen to me one by one. These grains were just bought by my wife's pawn Le Jiazhun. They were originally for the sake of safety. Good intentions to open a warehouse to release food, you are so ignorant of good and evil! Someone, take him down, and put him in a prison!"

He waved his hand and pointed directly at the two people standing in front.

As soon as the yamen servant heard this, he stepped forward and grabbed him.

Before everyone could react, the man had already been taken down.

This trick is to scare the chickens and monkeys, and immediately make more people show fear.

Mrs. Xu took advantage of this situation to stand up and said in a gentle voice: "Everyone, I did buy these grains in advance with the dowry. If you don't believe me, you can ask the shopkeeper of the grain shop. As for the grains in the granary in Yunyang County, we even buy them with grains of rice." Didn’t take it. I know everyone must be hungry and thirsty all the way, so I’ll order the maid at home to cook the porridge, so that you can have enough food soon. Now, please line up at the gate of the yamen to facilitate the porridge .”

"Of course, we will continue to boil until everyone gets the porridge, but whether it is sooner or later depends on where everyone is queuing up. Those who are in the front line will naturally be the first to eat the porridge."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone ran out quickly again, swarming out to line up.

Seeing that most of those people had left, the few who took the lead in making troubles in the academy were not good at making noises anymore, and after feeling bored, they were also ready to leave embarrassingly.

"You guys stop!"

Xiangling shouted loudly to stop them.

Those few looked at each other, turned their heads impatiently and said, "My Miss Xu, what's going on?"

Xiangling immediately said to Xu Wenxun: "Brother, they are the ones who took the lead in making a fuss. If you don't punish them well, there may be troubles in the future."

"Miss Xu, don't spout blood!"

"That's right, Miss Xu, we are also willing to stand up and fight against injustice after hearing people say that."

"Those who speak out will be punished. Who will dare to speak up in Dali in the future."

Xiangling was furious, and turned to look at Laiwang, who shook his head at her, signaling to keep quiet for now.

Xu Wenxun also said at this time: "In my opinion, it should be a misunderstanding. That's fine. Since you have already come, you also have the virtue of caring for the people of the world. Why don't you stay and help. We just happen to be short of manpower here."

Several people opened their mouths. In fact, they deliberately provoked trouble, but they couldn't admit it. Who wanted to be taken advantage of.

But now that it has come to this point, even though several people are reluctant, they still agree.

Xu Wenxun continued to issue orders: "Now we need a big pot. That's it. Let's start cooking porridge in the backyard of the yamen. You guys are responsible for finding firewood, and you are responsible for building the pot."

After assigning their respective tasks, everyone started to get busy.

After a while, Laiwang had set up a big pot with other government servants.

A few yamen servants originally looked down on this poor boy who had overtaken the county magistrate's lady, but now they saw that this young man still had some skills.

"It's not bad, the stove was set up in two or three strokes, and it's quite strong."

Laiwang patiently explained: "I came from the countryside, so I am used to doing these tasks. This kind of stove does not smoke, and the heat preservation effect is good."

While talking, the person who found the cauldron had already put the cauldron on it, and Qin Laiwang squatted down to light firewood. He was very good at all the things that old men never knew how to do.

Standing by the side, Xu Xiangling watched this scene, and looked at Qin Laiwang who was earnestly lighting the fire, her cheeks blushed secretly.

At this moment, she also raised the hem of her skirt, squatted beside Qin Laiwang, and whispered, "Laiwang, let me help you."

Smelling the faint scent of powder on the girl's body, Qin Laiwang also blushed a little, but quickly responded: "Okay, the fire is burning, you just need to continue adding firewood to it."

In order to avoid being gossiped, he stood up immediately after saying this, and then stepped aside in a polite manner.

Xiangling took the dry firewood that had been split next to him, and sent them in one by one, and soon the fire grew bigger and bigger, until finally the water in the pot started to smoke.

At this time, some helpers had already poured the washed rice into it and stirred it, and the fire continued to boil. Everyone around looked at the cauldron, full of hope in their hearts.

Seeing the stabilized situation, Xu Wenxun began to deploy the next step. First, he called the servants of the county government office to take care of the granary. As for the food here, someone also needed to take care of it, lest some villains would take the opportunity to steal.

After preparing everything, he asked the master to go out to count and see how many disaster victims came to Yunyang County.

Fortunately, through Xu Wenxun's efforts, the previous chaos in Yunyang County was finally sorted out, and even specially asked people to set up camp outside the city, specially for the victims who fled here.

However, in just two days, all the victims who had originally flowed to Yunyang County stopped moving, and some victims even expressed their intention to leave here after asking for enough food.

Xu Wenxun became even more curious about this situation, and personally led his master to stop the person who was about to leave to ask about the situation.

How did you know that the old and the young said: "Returning to your lord, it is said that many of us have fled to the western region, saying that there is enough food there to ensure that we can settle down there. Yunyang County is certainly good, but here There is not much food, and with so many victims here, we can still walk better than others, so we plan to go to a place with plenty of food."

"I see."

When Xu Wenxun heard the word "Xijing", he couldn't help repeating it in his mouth: "Xijing, Xijing, why does it sound familiar?"

The master on the side immediately said: "Returning to my lord, the Lord Regent moved his family and was rushing to the western region. Unexpectedly, the Lord Regent is someone who knew in advance that such a thing would happen here, and actually led the victims there."

"He is indeed a man of God."

At night, Xu Wenxun told Mrs. Xu about this matter. After hearing this, Mrs. Xu was not as surprised as he appeared, but said: "He is really a smart person. These victims are young and strong, and they can indeed follow their team to arrive. The western border, firstly, solves their food and clothing problem, and secondly, isn’t there soldiers who confront the enemy country and invade the border? It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.”

After Xu Wenxun heard his wife's analysis, he admired the regent even more.
