Reborn Farmer's Businesswoman

Chapter 547 A Good Man Is Difficult To Be (3)

The magistrate sighed: "Third son, I and you are considered old acquaintances. Ming people don't speak secret words, and just say a few words directly."

The magistrate was silent for a moment, and then said: "Fengzhou City will no longer accept refugees, and the city gate will be closed."

"..."

Han Qing had expected that although the city of Fengzhou would not be overcrowded, there were no longer a small number of refugees to accept. Closing the city gate at this time was considered an act of benevolence.

"Master, the number of refugees taken in before was not many, and we and the people don't care. It's just that there are still refugees pouring in every day, and my wife brought nearly a thousand people to Fengzhou. take refuge."

The speaker was a scholar, and the son said with a sad face: "Madam, you are a great kind person, but we and the people are afraid and restless."

"Although the refugees are pitiful, the refugees brought by Madam will be injured or die. If there is a disease and the infection spreads, what do you want the people of Fengzhou to do?"

Another blacksmith answered, "Even if there is no epidemic, ma'am, do you know that there are many vicious people in this troubled world? Can you guarantee that all refugees are not disgusted? How can you make the people of Fengzhou feel at ease?"

"Don't worry everyone, Doctor Ji Shitang has diagnosed and treated the refugees to ensure that there will be no epidemic." Lin Youtian's low voice sounded.

He continued: "The guards of the Lin family will do everything they can to control the refugees. There are many refugees in Fengzhou City. Youtian and Madam understand that it is reasonable for your lord to close the city gate. Youtian cannot refute it."

"..."

At this time, another businessman came out.

The man said: "Third Madam, you and I are also traveling together. Now that the military rations are in short supply, the imperial merchants are collecting and buying food everywhere."

"There is only so little food around Fengzhou. My wife bought the food and gave porridge to the refugees. Nothing happened for a month or two. But if this continues for a long time, what will the people of Fengzhou eat?"

"Madam, if you do good deeds, you must also think about the people of Fengzhou!"

Even the farmer on the side said sadly: "Mrs. Lin, you are not an ordinary person. Not everyone is like your wife and has a lot of money. I really don't understand how difficult it is for ordinary people like us."

"If there is no food and the whole family can't live in peace, what's the difference between us and refugees?"

Several people said in unison: "Madam please stop helping refugees..."

Seeing that Han Qing was silent, the magistrate of Fengzhou also sighed: "It's not that we are cruel, it's just that there are too many refugees and it's difficult to restrain them. Just eating, drinking and treating diseases has consumed a lot of food and herbs."

Han Qing remained silent, they were all right.

If they can't even survive themselves, why ask them to share their resources to save others?

However, the Lin family is just a family of merchants. When did it become an extraordinary existence in their eyes?
It is precisely because she is an ordinary woman who cannot be more ordinary, and has experienced life and death poverty, that she knows how important it is to lend a helping hand when people are in distress.

But the hundreds of people in front of her didn't do anything wrong, it was because she didn't think well.

She has no right to ask others what to do, but she has no complaints or regrets in treating refugees, she is just doing what she should do.

"Your Excellency, fellow folks, you Tian didn't think well enough, and You Tian have your own way to solve it."

As a man, Lin Youtian naturally stands in front of his wife.

Recently, he and Qing'er have made basic plans for the treatment of refugees, and are preparing to implement them.

So the two simply agreed that no refugees would be sent into Fengzhou city, and the interests of the local people in Fengzhou would not be overly involved.
