Chapter 342

In addition to being implemented in Lingnan, this method of having the government underwrite funds was also implemented in this way for refugees outside Cangwu.

Although there was opposition at the beginning of implementation, the final effect was very good, and Lu Shiyan believed it was feasible.

After the two discussed some details, they immediately gave the order and asked people to implement it in accordance with the regulations.

However, once this regulation was announced, it caused dissatisfaction among many people in Beijing.

"When Lingnan accepted refugees, they gave out porridge for free? Why do we have to charge money here? This is too different!"

"No, why did I hear the guy who gave out the decoction say that when they were in Lingnan, not only did they treat the plague without spending money, but they also gave free food and drink to those who got sick. The food was better than what they usually eat!"

"That's right, why do you need to charge money now?"

……

Many people angrily vented their dissatisfaction and compared it with the newly learned news.

"You also said, that's Lingnan, can this be the same as yours?" This policy was announced by Hu Kelai, the director of the Bohai County Refugee Office, and he looked at the crowd calmly and said.

"Why is it different?" Liao Xueqiong suspected that Jiang Tangtang was taking revenge on her and deliberately introduced a new policy just to embarrass herself.It's not that she can't come up with the money, she just isn't willing to do it.

"Because you are different from them. They are the people of Lingnan. They paid taxes to the Lingnan government and contributed to the construction of Lingnan.

Although the taxes they paid were not enough to cover the entire cost of plague treatment, they were on Lingnan’s household allowance and paid the taxes. They became part of Lingnan, and the government was willing to protect them from its own pockets.But have you done anything for our Bohai County? "

Hu Ke's words immediately stopped the aggrieved people.

This was the first time they had heard such rhetoric.

I have to say that what Hu Ke said makes sense.Why should people spend free money to help them?

Moreover, if they stay in the capital, there is no medicine to cure the epidemic, so they have no choice but to die.

Before coming, they had thought that as long as they could survive, it didn't matter even if they gave up all their money.

Now they are not required to give up all their money, it is just to pay for their own medical treatment.

Many fell silent.

At this time, Hu Ke also said that the choice is entirely up to everyone. Bohai County does not insist on it, and it is up to everyone to decide whether to stay or not.

At this time, all those who were dissatisfied before came to their senses.

It was they who came to beg Bohai County to save their lives, not Bohai County begging them to stay.

If they are not satisfied, they can leave.

But besides here, where else can they go?

And those who had previously wanted to bribe the soldiers with money to gain entry into the city and receive medical treatment were eager for Bohai County to offer such a form of paid payment.

These people took out their money one after another, begging to buy medicine and go to the city.

But even if they spend a lot of money, Bohai County will not give them any preferential treatment.

Everyone, as long as the doctor tests positive for the plague, must first enter the village for quarantine.

On the other hand, those who do not have symptoms of the plague are only allowed to move within the prescribed range, and any abnormalities in their health must be reported promptly.

Many refugees who have no money are trembling with fear, fearing that they will have no money for medical treatment and food, and will eventually die at the gate of the city.Some people even began to feel resentful in their hearts, feeling that the rumors were too much and that the Lu family was no different from the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty. There was no way for them poor people to survive in this world.

But then, Hu Ke announced the prices of all the medicinal materials and food, as well as the method of repayment.

I heard that after the illness was cured, the money owed for medical treatment could be repaid through work and other methods, and the repayment could be made in multiple installments according to one's own circumstances. The common people who had been worried before were relieved.

Those who secretly complained about the Lu family and scolded Jiang Tangtang were a bit sarcastic.

After the brief dispute, Bohai County took in the refugees and dealt with the plague in an orderly manner.

*
Under the rescue efforts of more than a dozen imperial doctors, Xiao Ye finally woke up after being in a coma for a day and a night.

After waking up, he learned that in addition to Commander Gao and Minister Lin escaping from the city, several other commanders from the guard posts fled with their soldiers and the ministers of the DPRK.

As soon as Xiao Ye woke up, he almost fainted from anger again. He cursed the princes as trash and how could he let those commanders and ministers escape.

Although several princes repeatedly admitted their mistakes, none of them were convinced privately.

The fifth prince secretly complained about him, usually guarding them like thieves, fearing that they would seize power.

At this time, it was their fault for not stopping him. How could he, a prince with no military power, stop him?

However, he only dared to criticize such words in his heart, and did not dare to show it on his face.

If Xiao Ye could see the clues, even his own son would be open to him.

Xiao Ye didn't have time to pay attention to what his sons were thinking now. This illness made him obviously feel that his health was much worse.

This made him panic, and he was even more anxious to regain his strong body, and eager to catch Jiang Tangtang in his hands.

He was not in the mood to deal with the mess in Beijing, and was only thinking about how to catch Jiang Tangtang.

In his opinion, as long as he has a strong body, he can stabilize the situation and regain the lost ground sooner or later.

Even after he regained his strong body and became young again, with the help of Jiang, a disciple of the immortal, it was not impossible to develop the Zhou Dynasty into a powerful country and annex the surrounding small countries.

As for whether Jiang Tangtang would assist him in establishing the Great Zhou Dynasty, this was not at all among his considerations.

In his opinion, except that he is not as young as Lu Shiyan, he is much better than Lu Shiyan in every aspect.

When he regains his youthful physique, won't Jiang be impressed by his charm?

What's more, he is a noble person. He doesn't mind that Jiang is a married woman and her body is already unclean. He is already a great gift to her. How dare she have any objections?
The people he sent to Bohai County for surveillance soon came back with good news.

Knowing that Jiang Tangtang actually left Lingnan, Xiao Ye felt that God was helping him.He immediately began to deploy his troops. This time he must capture Jiang Tangtang.

Lingnan's defense is very good, but it has only been a few months since Bohai County was in Lu Shiyan's hands?He can't take it down yet?
Hearing that Xiao Ye actually wanted to mobilize troops to attack Bohai County, many ministers who had stayed in the capital thought he was sick and confused.

How can we send troops at this time?

Cui Shangshu, on the other hand, fully supported the emperor's decision, and his whole person showed a completely abnormal state of excitement.

He stood up and supported the emperor, saying that this was a feat that benefited the country and the people.Jiang Tangtang holds the holy medicine to save people from fire and water, but he is selfish and unwilling to use it to save people all over the world.

Only when this medicine is in the hands of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty can the true use of the holy medicine be exerted.
