Chapter 93 Huai City Flood
"Miss, these disaster victims are so pitiful, let's find a way to help them!"

Xue'er couldn't bear it, and after thinking for a while, she asked.

Yan Ruobing now has more than [-] taels of banknotes on her body, so she can still do her part to help these victims.

And even if Xue'er didn't say anything, Yan Ruobing would take action to show her one after another the people starving to death in front of her, but she couldn't do it.

"Well, let's go back first, make a plan before going to help these victims!"

The number of victims is tens of thousands in the city alone, and the number of victims blocked outside the city should be three to five times that of the city, adding up to a total of [-] to [-] people.

With so many victims, even the imperial court felt a headache, so if they want to help them, it is not possible for the two of them to do it, it must have a good plan.

Back at the inn, he gave the boss 100 taels of silver directly, and then ordered: "Prepare me two thousand steamed buns, and prepare as many other foods as you like. Put it on the table!"

"Guest officer, it's a disaster period right now, many people with money can't buy food, where do you want me to get you so much food?"

The boss returned the money to Yan Ruobing. Yan Ruobing took out a dagger and pointed it at the boss's neck, threatening: "You think I'm an outsider so I can deceive you? Do you want me to go to the underground warehouse to get the things in person?" Find it out for you? I will be the first one not to spare anyone who wants to make money for the country!"

Yan Ruobing threatened in a cold tone, when she came, she saw in the backyard that two waiters from the store moved all the food to the underground warehouse, so she dared to ask the boss to prepare things for her, of course she knew the situation.

"Okay... okay... Don't be angry, my lord, I will prepare according to your order now!"

The boss was overwhelmed by Yan Ruobing's aura, and immediately trembling with fright, he went to prepare something to eat.

"Young master, if you have been waiting for the food from the imperial court, it will definitely not work. When we came here, we passed by a tin city. I think the people there were not affected by the disaster at all, and they were still eating well. It is not as good as ours." Find a way to get some food there."

Xueer is very experienced, so she knows that distant water cannot save near fire, and to help these victims, she has to start from Lincheng.

Yan Ruobing nodded in agreement. In fact, she was not worried about whether there was food in Xicheng, but she was afraid that even if they went, the officials in Xicheng would not take action.

"Let's check the situation here now. If the food from the imperial court has not arrived in another day, then go to Xicheng to borrow food!"

Yan Ruobing said firmly that Xicheng is indeed as Xueer said, and their lives have not been greatly affected by the disaster area here, so that when they pass by Xicheng, don't confuse their eyes and think that the disaster in Huaicheng has been solved. out of control.

Soon, the owner of the inn followed Yan Ruobing's instructions, prepared a lot of food, and put all of them on the set up table.

As soon as they saw something to eat, the victims all gathered around, and then frantically started to grab food.

This was the first time Yan Ruobing had seen such a chaotic scene, and she was immediately surprised.And Xueer has experienced it personally, so she behaved relatively calmly.

"Everyone, don't grab it. They are all food. Come one by one. Let the elderly, children, and women stand in front first, and the young and strong men will automatically back up. Don't hurt innocent people just to grab food!"

Xue'er stood on the high platform, shouting calmly, trying to maintain order.

All the waiters in the inn came out to help distribute the food, while Yan Ruobing supervised.She saw that no matter how Xueer yelled on the stage, there were several unconscious men in the crowd, pushing forward desperately, and even pushed down several old people.

Yan Ruobing couldn't stand it anymore, she flew into the crowd with a touch of her toes, and kicked those unconscious young men away.

"Look at all of you who are strong and young, but you don't know how to respect the old and love the young. Anyone who unconsciously queues up is not allowed to distribute any food to him!"

As soon as Yan Ruobing stepped forward like this, the chaotic scene was immediately brought under control.

However, just when the food distribution was going smoothly, a piece of bad news suddenly came.

"Young master, it's bad! The victims knew that there was food distribution here, and more people rushed over. Even the victims outside the city became agitated, trying to squeeze into the city to grab food."

It was the innkeeper who spoke, and it was Yan Ruobing who arranged to observe the surrounding situation. Although she had expected such a result, she did not expect to alarm the victims outside the city.

The food they prepared was only enough to feed one-tenth of the victims in the city. If some of the victims were all squeezed in, I don't know what kind of riots would be caused.

"Sir, what should I do now?"

"Hurry up, the things will be distributed!"

Yan Ruobing couldn't think of a better way for a while, the only thing was to finish the distribution quickly, and when other victims came, they saw that there was nothing to eat, so they would naturally go back by themselves.

However, what she didn't expect was that the victims in the city were coming like a flood. Even though the food had been distributed, those extremely evil victims actually grabbed the food from the victims who got the food.

For a while, the chaos became uncontrollable, and many victims fought violently because of grabbing food.

Yan Ruobing looked anxiously, but there was nothing she could do, because she couldn't stop it at all, and she never thought that things would become so serious.

When she watched many children and old people being trampled and beaten in the chaos, Yan Ruobing felt a deep sense of guilt in her heart.

Fortunately, the guards in the city discovered the commotion here, and quickly dispatched many officers and soldiers to bring the situation under control.

Yan Ruobing and Xue'er were also directly arrested by the government because of this matter.

The county magistrate of Huaicheng was not an unreasonable person. He admired Yan Ruobing for helping the victims at his own expense, but he greatly blamed Yan Ruobing for his recklessness.

The county magistrate of Huai City is Wang Chong, a middle-aged man in his forties.Regarding the sudden flood in Huai City this year, he was also caught off guard. Before that, he moved all the food in the government warehouse to help the victims. Today's riot also happened, so he ordered that no one should take out food without permission.

And after knowing that Yan Ruobing was a foreigner, he didn't punish him severely, but only verbally reprimanded him.

Regarding Wang Chong's anger, Yan Ruobing accepted the criticism readily, because if the officers and soldiers in the city hadn't stepped forward just now, how many innocent people would have died.

Knowing that Yan Ruobing wanted to help those victims, Wang Chong left Yan Ruobing and Xue'er in the official residence.

Yan Ruobing told Wang Chong what she and Xueer thought before, but Wang Chong shook his head repeatedly.

"I have already thought about how to find Xicheng to pick up the food. It's just that Li Min, a corrupt official in Xicheng, refuses to take out the food. I really have no choice!"

After listening to Wang Chong's words, Yan Ruobing finally understood, no wonder life in Xicheng was not affected, it turned out to be really an iron rooster!
Just when everyone felt helpless, suddenly a guard rushed in and reported: "My lord, something is wrong!"
