Huanxi Farm: Pick up a husband for farming

Chapter 244 Convincing Huang Zhi
Huang Zhi stared at the two young men sitting in front of him. He straightened his back, his chest expanded, and he wanted to put on official authority in his bones.

Rong Shui said such words in front of him... If it was someone else, she might be arrested and rewarded with dozens of boards as a warning.

Not to mention refuting his face, a commoner actually wanted to meddle in the political affairs of a county town, and if it got out, not only his black hat would be lost, but Rong Shui had to be shown as an example to others!

It was Huang Zhi who was still some time ago, and his anger towards Rong Shui was still there. If she dared to say such rebellious words, Huang Zhi would like to take her down on the spot and punish her.

It's just because... She saved Liu's life, and now his wife who is seriously ill is looking forward to this girl to talk to her every day.

Therefore, Huang Zhi turned his mind around for a few times, and finally just issued an order to evict guests irritably: "Rongshui, Junli, I see that you two are too busy all day to panic, right? You actually care about me?" Come to think of it, the two of you have nothing to do, but I don’t have time, I’m going to go to the Yamen in a while to accompany the two of you who are chatting, you... how about doing what you want?!”

He also tried his best to pay attention to his tone of voice, and he still kept his face pleasant. After all, Nianzai Rongshui has devoted himself to Mrs. Liu these days. He sent precious medicinal materials, rare antiques, and exquisite jewelry to the mansion in different ways. The most important thing is The most important thing is her considerate care, which cannot be shown.

Rong Shui is not a person who doesn't know how to appreciate and judge people's faces, but he really came here today with a purpose, and Huang Zhi must not let Huang Zhi drive him away so easily.

Then he said it directly: "Master Huang! Why don't you listen to what Rong Shui said, and then you decide whether you want to listen to me? The situation in the city is getting more and more serious now, but the court didn't pay attention to it, didn't care about it or even didn't notice Although Mrs. Zhan Kezhen is worried about the chaos in our small county, after all, he has limited power and has no right to order officials from neighboring counties to send troops to suppress it. Moreover, the master and you have come up with various ways to drive away the refugees, but they all ended in failure. , why don’t you listen to my little girl? If it fails, it’s just another attempt that doesn’t cost the government any money. If it succeeds... if it succeeds, Rong Shui will never dare to take credit for it. The full name is Master Huang who came up with it The solution, at that time Master Huang won the hearts of the people again, and successfully solved the disturbance of the refugees this time, and first wrote the deeds into a memorial and spread them to the capital, and he also had achievements in front of the emperor and the court! Why not do it, my lord? ?”

After hearing what Rong Shui said, Huang Zhi's heart was indeed moved... This girl Rong is the best at capturing people's hearts, she always has a lot of tricks, maybe... maybe she really came up with something?That's why you have the confidence to come before yourself?

Thinking about it again, recently, I have been completely troubled by the refugees in the city. The troops are not enough, and the training is ineffective. The officers and soldiers patrolling the city are like a mess of sand.
They found the dens where the refugees gathered, and took several forced expulsions, but after all, they were the people of the Great Swallow, so it was impossible to use knives and guns to injure people, and the results were minimal...

And brazenly borrowing troops from neighboring counties was stopped on the spot, and he went to report the critical situation to Mrs. Zhan Kezhen. He had no right to mobilize troops and had no choice but to promise to write more memorials to bring up the matter again in front of the emperor.

He tried all kinds of methods, but he still couldn't find a way to deal with the refugees in the city. Maybe...Rong Shui's analysis with such swearing, really has one or two points of view?It's just that this girl... looked like she knew everything, which made him uncomfortable.

Thinking about giving her a chance otherwise, he said, "Okay, girl Rong, since you dare to say such a thing, is there really any way to do it? Let me hear what you say first, and if it is feasible, I will consider whether to follow it or not." Come!"

What Rongshui was waiting for was that Huang Zhi was willing to take the time to listen to his plan, so he opened his mouth and said the solution he had thought up a long time ago: "Master Huang, let me first ask you why these refugees came to our Jiangcheng?!"

Huang Zhi said: "What is there to ask? Don't you think that our Jiangcheng is prosperous and rich enough to support them? Hmph... a group of blood-sucking insects are as annoying."

Rong Shui stopped him and said, "Master Huang, don't say that. Since you know that these refugees from the north are looking for a prosperous and prosperous place to live, have you ever thought about what they think? Don't you think that we are near Jiangcheng? The momentum of development has been good in the past few years. If you come here, you may find a job and a place to live. You can make a family full of food and clothing. After staying for a few months, you will go back to your hometown to farm! Who knows... who knows that they don't know the terrain of Jiangcheng Low-lying, lack of mountains around to block the cold current, the winter is also freezing, the economy is slowly sluggish, and the shops and houses are no longer recruiting buddies, so these northerners who dream of finding a livelihood are blocked from life, and this At that time, it was already the severe winter, and it was impossible to find another place to stay, and they were unwilling to travel long distances, so they had to sleep in the streets or corners, exhausted their money, and had no money or jobs. What do you think they can do besides steal?"

After Rong Shui finished speaking, he saw that Huang Zhi was thinking deeply, and then he said: "And no matter how cold our Jiangcheng is, there will not be frozen corpses everywhere on the roadside in winter. Do you know that there is a place in the northernmost part of the Great Yan? Guan, but there is an extremely cold drop of water! Even if there is a charcoal fire, people may freeze to death, so the refugees would rather wander on the streets in the south than freeze to death in the cold cellars in the north!"

It was the first time Huang Zhi heard someone talking about their lives from the standpoint of refugees, and he felt a little touched, but he still said: "Even so, this group of people smashed and looted, causing Jiangcheng Can everyone forgive if they are in danger? Rong Shui... I asked you to tell your plan to drive out the refugees, so don't talk about him!"

Rong Shui didn't stop, and replied, "Master Huang, what I'm going to say next is the plan. My plan is not to drive away the refugees, but to help the refugees stay in Jiangcheng! Let them live and work here in peace this winter!"

Huang Zhi jumped up against the case and shouted: "Good girl, I spent time here listening to you about your plan, but in the end you wanted to tease me! You said you didn't want to drive away the refugees, but you wanted to drive them away. They stay in the city to live?!"

Rongshui faced Huang Zhi's anger without any fear. She stood up bravely and firmly. This moment became sacred because of the endless fate of refugees in the north behind her.

In Junli's eyes, existence is a fearless and eternal soul. This is not a pretentious performance, nor is it a conspiracy with selfish interests... It is such a Rongshui that makes Junli clearly realize that the Rongshui he likes turns out to be She is so fearless and selfish.

He also stood up silently, without saying a word during the whole process, standing behind Rong Shui, giving her silent support.

Rongshui could feel Junli's protective actions, but all she could think about was how to make Huang Zhi agree to believe her.

So he said again: "Master Huang! Please listen to me. The fear of the people in Jiangcheng is the refugees who smashed, looted and looted. They are refugees who love leisure and work hard. But an ordinary, hardworking, law-abiding and good citizen, everyone will definitely not He was afraid, and he didn’t even remember his status as a refugee from the north, so he was treated differently.”

"And if all the refugees are turned into such peaceful and good citizens, we have to arrange jobs and housing for them, and let them have enough food and clothing. Who do you think is willing to steal?"

After Rong Shui finished speaking, he begged for Huang Zhi's approval, but Huang Zhi said strangely: "Rong Shui, are you confused?! Arrange work and residence?! What you said is simple! Do you know how many people there are in this group of refugees? How much? There are probably three to four hundred people after liquidation, tell me, where can I allocate such a large sum of money to arrange residence and work for them?!"

Rong Shui was not confused, she calculated the accounts very clearly, and said: "Master Huang... how about leaving these things to me? Let Rong Shui find a job for them to make a living, and I can also take care of the residence, Master Huang I just need to take everyone in the station for five days, and after five days, I can guarantee that the refugees in the city will have jobs and shelters, and they will be able to eat and clothe themselves warmly, and will no longer harm the common people."

Such a bold girl Rong dared to make such a promise. Could it be that she wanted to use the Rong family's financial resources to support these refugees?It is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket, and... such a stupid thing, no one can do it, right?Either Rong Shui's brain is broken, or she is really kind-hearted, or... have other plans?
Huang Zhi couldn't believe it, he said: "Rong girl, you want me to vacate the inn. It's no problem to take them in for five days, but... where can you settle them after these five days? Then release them again." Harm the people? What exactly are you planning to do?"

The plan in Rongshui's heart was clear, but he only said to Huang Zhi: "Sir, you don't need to worry about these things anymore, right? In short, Rongshui here promised you that if I haven't found a place to settle the refugees after five days, I will pay for it myself." As for the expenses of the station, you can send someone to pay some deposit for the expenses of the station in a while. When the time comes, you can deduct it yourself. As for Rongshui's plan, you will know in five days! And... I promised, I will do it These things are all done in the name of the adults, and the credit is due to the adults! No matter in the hearts of the people or in the eyes of the emperor."

Undoubtedly, Rong Shui's words did move Huang Zhi a little bit. This time the refugee rebellion may indeed be a turning point in his career as an official. If he handles it well, he will gain both popular support and political achievements...

If it really fails...it doesn't seem to be a big deal, girl Rong will bear the expenses herself...

Rong Shui waited quietly for Huang Zhi's reply, and after a long time, Huang Zhiwei nodded incredulously.

Said: "Okay, Rong girl, I will give you this opportunity to deal with this matter, if you need any help, just tell me."
