Fertile land

In the evening, her brother Fei sent a letter to A Jin. She was too tired today and went to sleep.

At noon on the second day, Li Xier and Feng Qingcheng disguised themselves and came to the county government office of Linzhou County.

As expected, the gate of the county government office was closed, and some starving people were lying at the door. They looked at the gate with longing eyes, praying that the county magistrate would have mercy on them and give them some porridge.

The door finally opened with a creak, and the group of people on the ground immediately stumbled over and said, "Master, help us!" Unexpectedly, the yamen runner raised his leg and kicked them.
"Ah! Go away, go away, the master said that you guys should leave quickly if you know what's best for you, or don't blame us for being rude."

In fact, the prison is already full of people, and keeping them inside is a waste of food!
The main reason is that the master has been in a bad mood these days. Last night, I heard that the treasury silver was lost in the master's house.

The key is that it cannot be publicized, because all the money that was stolen and abused over the years is in there. It is all ill-gotten gains that cannot be seen in public. My wife was so angry that she passed out...

Then I heard that the court had sent the God of War Prince Zhan to provide disaster relief, and he would arrive in the next two days. Seeing this group of beggars at the gate of the yamen, I was extremely worried.

If Prince Zhan saw that they were parading this bunch of refugees through the streets, wouldn't that mean that he, the magistrate of Linzhou County, was not doing his job properly?

"Ah, Master, please be kind. My old woman is sick. Look, we are all citizens of Linzhou County. You can't just watch us die of hunger or illness!"

"Md! I've never seen people so ignorant as you. Brothers, get to work!" The yamen runner gave an order and a group of people rushed out, holding sticks in their hands and started beating them!
"I told you to get out, but you didn't. You're like cockroaches!!!"

"How ridiculous! Are they gangsters or government officials?" Feng Qingcheng was so angry!

These beasts in human form, is this how they perform their duties with the salaries paid by the court?

Li Xier coldly watched the gang of yamen runners committing crimes, picked up gravel from the ground, and threw it hard at the foreheads of those evil officials!

"what!"

"Ah, what's going on?"

The yamen runners were hit by stones and bullets one by one, and screams came one after another, "Who is it?"

"Who is cheating in the dark?"

The leader who had spoken just now was hit in the nose by a stone and was in excruciating pain. He looked around. The air was filled with calmness and no one knew what was going on...

"Ah! Who hit me!"

There was another big bump on the chief's forehead!
At this moment, a woman with a painted face who looked like a beggar rolled her eyes and said, "Hey, guys, why are you still here? Aren't you just waiting to die?"

"Hurry up and get in line at Linchang Academy. I heard that the owner of Hengcan Liuli is giving out porridge this afternoon out of mercy! Not only that, I heard that the last disciple of the long-retired Imperial Doctor Zhang will be there to see patients for free!"

"what?"

Everyone's confused eyes suddenly lit up. Is there such a good thing? They immediately chattered and talked non-stop, "Sister-in-law, is what you said true or false? Can the boss of Hengcan Liuli be so good?"

"I heard that her Liulichang is far away in Beijing. Why did she come to our place?"

"Oh, of course it's true! Hengcan Liuli's reputation is well-known in Fenglan Country, especially in the capital. How could they lie? They just haven't built the factory in our Linzhou County yet. I heard that the neighboring county Ci'en County has already started to investigate and build a factory!"

"I think it must be that the boss heard that our Linzhou County was hit by a flood, so he specially ordered his servants to come and distribute porridge and invited the closed disciple of Imperial Physician Zhang to see a doctor for free!"

"Oh my god! God is so kind! Hengcan Liuli not only makes excellent glass lamps, but the owner is also so kind. When I become rich in the future, I will definitely buy things from him!"

"I want to work in Liulichang! It doesn't matter if I'm not hired!"

Li Xier was like a cannon spreading gossip, lurking in the crowd, nodding her head from time to time.

Feng Qingcheng looked at her chattering away, making excuses and bragging from time to time, and shook her head helplessly.

The bailiff looked at the out-of-control situation before him, touched his red and swollen nose, and turned back to report to his master.
