Start Ancient: Take your family and lie down in the natural disaster to win

Chapter 288 288. Grain Seeds
If everyone understood according to the young man's explanation, everyone would definitely be willing to exchange work for grain.

Although some people still have some money left in their hands, how much do poor people have, and money is their last resort, and no one is willing to take it out easily.

"Yes" Master Liu spoke.

"That's what I mean, what's your name?" Liu Yongping looked at the speaker and looked at him a few more times.

"Return to my lord, student Sun Shangcheng." The young man bowed.

"Have you read a book?"

"Yes, I have been studying for a few years, but the students are not very talented in reading, and they are no longer like children."

"It's pretty good, then it's up to you to record it."

"Student?" Sun Shangcheng's eyes widened suddenly, obviously surprised.

"Yes...you, all those who cannot afford to buy grain seeds can pay according to their means. The premise is that after planting the grain, they must cooperate with the government arrangements for a period of ten days. If not, all the grain planted will be lost to the public, not to mention that they still need to continue working. In ten days, those who agree can follow Sun..."

"Student Sun Shangcheng," the young man said quickly.

"Follow Mr. Sun's record, Hu Yatou, you follow up. The village where the name belongs and how many people are in the family must be registered," Liu Yongping warned.

With these people, he, a county magistrate who only has more than 20 people under his command, does not have to worry about having no one available.

After the disaster, every village in the town needs to be cleaned up as soon as possible. Now everything is in a mess. Various poultry, livestock and human bones can be seen. After a year and a half, they have all been decomposed. However, there are always some uneasy factors. It needs to be dealt with as soon as possible, as well as post-disaster reconstruction, the most important water problem, etc.

In short, there is a lot to do!
I was actually having a hard time, but this solved a problem. With the help of the people, we should be able to put the town in order in the shortest possible time.

In this way, we can also count the specific number of people alive in the town after the disaster.

"Yes" Hu Hu, the Yamen head, leaned over to accept the order.

"Sir, will the court distribute relief food?"

I feel hungry every day and feel nervous. Although the food problem has been solved, the food has not yet been obtained. Some people can't help but ask, even if they will be slapped in the end.

This is what Liu Yongping is worried about. After all, the amount of grain is small. Although the large grain merchants in the town are reluctant, they are willing to pay part of it, but there is really not much grain, and they can only afford less than [-] yuan despite his threats and inducements. stone.

For a town, these are just a drop in the bucket, and I haven't thought of taking them out for the time being. Everything will be done after the statistics of the living population are completed.

As for the imperial court, they had already sent someone to deliver the message when they came down the mountain, but the news they received was waiting. However, many days have passed and there is still no news. Liu Yongping instinctively felt that something was wrong, otherwise he would not be so anxious to find food seeds. If we delay any longer, there really will be no need to plant food.

There is no food and nothing to eat. This is a rhythm that will drive people crazy. By then, the trace of order that was finally restored will probably completely collapse again.

Either they completely destroy human nature, or if they don't want to live, there is only one option available, which is to escape.

But escaping from famine also requires strength. Nowadays, those who survive are all skinny and skinny. They cannot walk very far at all. Leaving them means death.

Liu Yongping sighed deeply as he looked at the people waiting for his answer.

"I can't guarantee you the food relief. There is no news from the court even after the floods subsided. However, there is no news from the court, but I have received some news. This disaster is probably of a nationwide nature, which means that the court We may have too much time to take care of ourselves now, so we all should not place our hopes on the court. We can only save ourselves at the moment. Fortunately, everything will recover now. As long as we are more diligent, we can always find something to eat, and we will have enough food to last until the next season."

"Sir, is this true?" Many people became excited after hearing this and asked eagerly.

"If nothing else, it should be." Seeing everyone crying in shock, Liu Yongping felt uneasy.

In fact, he was also struggling with whether to tell the people about this matter. Telling him would cause instability in people's hearts and possibly lead to unpredictable things.Not to mention that they can't pass their own test, they can't keep it in the dark and do nothing. After knowing it, they can at least store more food, even dried wild vegetables, so that they won't always lose hope. Dedicated to the court.

"So the whole Gu Yan has been flooded...God, God really doesn't want to give us a way to survive!"

"What's wrong with this!"

The one who couldn't bear it immediately sat on the ground and cried loudly.

They also thought that if there was relief food, even just a few liters would be able to replenish their children's health.

Liu Yongping looked at the people with a complicated expression, motioned to Hu Hu to appease him without saying anything more, and turned back to the dilapidated mansion.

Although it is dilapidated, it is much better than most houses in the town. At least only the courtyard wall collapsed, and the main body of the house did not suffer much damage. After being tidied up, it will not be a problem to keep out the wind and rain.

Liu Yongping pinched his eyebrows and quickly entered the mansion. His legs had been running thin these past few days because of food and seed matters, and he didn't sleep much for several nights. Fortunately, the result was not bad.

The people calmed down for a while. They watched Mr. Liu enter the official residence, looked at each other for a moment, and then surrounded Sun Shangcheng and the Yatou.

Nowadays, there is no hope of relief food, and now only grain seeds are available.

You can do what you can, regardless of whether you have money or not, everyone is anxious to register.

Qin Dagen and the few dozen or so families in Shangqin Village also hurried forward, feeling somewhat relieved.

No matter what, the trip was not in vain. As for the farmers who contribute little energy, they just have more energy and can go back to work after receiving the food.

Everyone swarmed towards the Yatou and Sun Shangcheng, so that Hu Hu had to shout at the top of his voice again.

"Everyone, don't be anxious. Don't be anxious. You won't be able to sign up if you are in such a hurry. Please line up first. If you don't line up, we won't start."

Hu Hu shouted loudly. He didn't have a full stomach and exerted too much force. He only felt that his vision went dark for a moment. He ordered the servants around him to go back to the official residence to clean up a table and get paper and pen to write down.

Everyone thought the same thing at first glance. No matter how hard they squeezed in, it would be useless. It would be useless if the officials didn't start.

Immediately, the old man who spoke first and the villagers were the first to run to the entrance of the official residence and stood in line. Seeing this, the others also hurriedly squeezed in.

"Don't squeeze. I'm already standing here. Go behind..."

"Hey, why don't you have eyes? You stepped on my toes, don't you know?"

"Quine in line, I told you to queue up."

"..."

"It's not like you came first, I arrived first..."

"Why are you so unreasonable?"

It was even more noisy for a while, and the Yamen had a headache. He had no choice but to lead two people to maintain order. With them, two long queues were formed in a short time.

"Everyone should line up nicely. If you make trouble, don't blame me for doing business." As soon as these words came out, the voices in the group that spoke suddenly became much quieter, and everyone shut up.

This really pinches the big guy's hand. Now everyone is looking forward to food seeds.
