The following text

The slightly fat magistrate of Ruyang County, Wang Dan, finally surrendered. He raised his hand and wiped his face with his sleeve for some reason, as if he was lost.

"...Okay, my Ruyang County sent someone to Guixian to assist in the relief work, as for the daily salary of these people..."

However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Liu Ying, the magistrate of Luyang County, with a smile: "... Of course, Gui County is also responsible for it, right, Prince?"

"..." County Magistrate Wang looked at Liu Ying with a silence, his slightly thick lips trembled, and finally a very ugly smile appeared on his face.

Under the hatred gaze of the county magistrate Wang, Liu Ying and the Hou of Luyang Township, led Zhao Yu and Jingnv to reject the former's hypocritical invitation to eat, and left the county government of Ruyang County in a happy mood.

After walking out of the county government office, Liu Ying smiled and said to the Luyang Township Hou: "I'm afraid I offended this Wang Fengzhong this time."

The Wang Fengzhong he mentioned refers to the Wang Dan, the magistrate of Wang County, and Fengzhong is his name.

Hearing this, the Hou of Luyang Township couldn't help asking: "I heard that this person has a lot of help behind him?"

"Ah." Liu nodded with a little sadness: "He often claims to be a disciple of Tai Shi Wang, and he is really a clique..."

The Marquis of Luyang Township was stunned when he heard this. Although he often lived in Luyang County and did not know the great figures in the temple as well as the magistrate Liu County, the Grand Master Wang knew that no matter how he heard it, he knew that it was definitely not an ordinary person. He suddenly realized why Liu Ying took the initiative to be the "evil man".

"Mr. Liu..."

As if he had guessed the idea of ​​the Luyang Township Marquis, Liu smiled and waved his hand and said, "The Township Marquis does not need to worry about Liu. Before coming, Liu had already thought about it. Even if the county magistrate is not suitable, he will still completely solve the problem of refugees... Anyway, many refugees in our Luyang County have died suddenly so far. If this matter is known to the court, it will inevitably be dismissed. Since this is the case, what should I be afraid of? ... If it is difficult to avoid being dismissed in the end, my husband and I will simply defect to my son."

Although Liu Ying seemed to be just pretending to be free and easy, both the Marquis of Luyang Township and Zhao Yu who were beside him were quite admired.

"Okay, let's go back to the inn first."

Pointing to the carriage parked in the alley across the street, Liu and the three of them said.

Looking at Liu Ying's departure, the Hou of Luyang Township couldn't help but praise him in a low voice, but this praise made Zhao Yu feel a little confused and couldn't help asking: "Dad, from your tone, it seems that you are not very familiar with Mr. Liu?"

"Is it strange?"

The Marquis of Luyang Township was not surprised that the youngest son could see it. After all, at this moment, although he did not say it, his heart had improved his evaluation of his son's wisdom again and again. Therefore, it is not surprising that the son could see this.

"Mr. Liu came to my Luyang three years ago to serve as the county magistrate. During this period, I had no interaction with him and never walked around too much..."

"I haven't had much intersection in three years?" Zhao Yu was a little surprised, and then couldn't help asking: "What about this before? Who is the county magistrate of my Luyang County?"

The Marquis of Luyang Township did not respond, but said lightly: "Let's go, don't let Mr. Liu wait for a long time."

At that moment, Zhao Yu saw the gloomy expression on his father's face, and suddenly realized in his heart: The former county magistrate of Luyang County is probably very bad with this father.

After a moment, Hou, Liu Ying, Hou Luyang Township and others boarded the carriage when they arrived and prepared to return to the inn.

On the carriage, Liu Ying couldn't help but praise Zhao Yu again, saying it made Zhao Yu feel a little embarrassed. After all, he thought he was just benefiting from some special opportunities. In terms of wisdom alone, he didn't think he could be better than Liu Ying and the Hou of Luyang Township.

After everyone returned to the inn, Ding Wu, the Luyang County Magistrate, immediately came up and asked anxiously, "Mr. Liu, the marquis of the town, don't know what the result of this trip will be?"

Beside him, the county soldiers from Luyang County also looked at him with concern.

Seeing this, Liu Ying glanced at Zhao Yu who was standing beside the Hou in Luyang Township, and then laughed and said, "God blessed me in Luyang County. With the help of the wisdom of the Hou and his son, the magistrate Wang of Ruyang County finally agreed to help our county."

"I'm ashamed of being accused of taking responsibility."

Amid the humble voice of the marquis of Luyang Township, Ding Wu and Ding County Magistrate and the county soldiers beside him all cheered.

It's no wonder. After all, whether it's the county magistrate Ding or the county soldiers next to him, they are basically locals in Luyang County. The troubles of refugees are closely related to them. Of course, they also hope to solve the refugee problem as soon as possible.

Given that it was still a while before dusk, Zhao Yu originally wanted to stroll around the streets of Ruyang County and see the ancient customs. After all, Ruyang County is a big county that is better than Luyang County. Not to mention Zhao Yu, even Jingniao yearns for it.

But seeing that the Hou of Luyang Township had no intention of taking the two of them to the streets, Zhao Yu had to give up this idea temporarily. After all, they were here to seek help from the Rushui counties, not to visit.

The next day, on the fourth day of the August 19th, everyone who had already achieved their goals in Ruyang County set off for several other counties in Rushui. Their next stop was Yangren County, east of Ruyang.

According to Liu Ying's introduction on the way, compared with Ruyang County, Yangren County is slightly inferior, but it is not comparable to Luyang County. The county's financial resources are roughly equivalent to two Luyangs, so it is naturally included in the list of seeking help by Liu Ying and the Marquis of Luyang Township.

The county magistrate of Yangren County is called Zhengzhou, which is the same name as a large county town in the north. Zixiang is his character.

After meeting the Zheng County Magistrate, Liu explained his purpose and explained to the former that he was preparing to implement the "work-for-relief" strategy in Luyang County and use this strategy to alleviate the problem of refugees.

During this period, Zhao Yu sat next to his father, the Marquis of Luyang Township, secretly looked at the magistrate of Zheng County.

If he thought that the magistrate of Wang County, Ruyang County, who was full of belly, was like a businessman with a smell of copper, then the Zheng County Magistrate in front of him was more like a noble son from a noble family, especially the other party's eyesight and knowledge were definitely not comparable to that of Wang Dan County Magistrate.

After listening to Liu Ying’s narration on “work-for-relief”, the magistrate Zheng smiled and said, “Mr. Liu is really good at calculating. He steals the power of the counties in Rushui to benefit Luyang. I think that after the completion of this canal, Luyang will be unlimited in the future…”

Although Liu Ying was a few years older than the Zheng County Magistrate, he was also embarrassed and said, "How could this be a steal?"

"Isn't it?" Zheng County Magistrate smiled and said, "My counties in Rushui paid for money and food and manpower, but in the end they were nothing. However, Gui County was able to get a blessing in disguise and dig a canal to irrigate the farmland in the county..."

Hearing this, the Hou of Luyang Township said lightly: "Actually, it's OK. If Yangren County is willing to accept refugees, our Luyang County is willing to allocate money, give manpower, and help your county with work for relief."

The magistrate Zheng glanced at the Luyang Township Hou, waved his hand with a smile and said, "Haha, forget it, this matter is too risky... Don't care about it, I'm just talking about the matter."

After some discussion between the two sides, the Zheng County Magistrate of Yangren County readily agreed to the conditions to help Luyang County. Of course, the premise was that as Liu promised, no refugees would invade Tayangren County.

Afterwards, Jingnv asked Zhao Yu curiously: "Young Master, why did the magistrate Zheng County had clearly seen the plan of Luyang County, but in the end he still agreed to the request made by Liu Gong and the Marquis of the Township?"

"Because he is afraid of trouble." Zhao Yu explained.

Indeed, whether in Ruyang County or Yangren County, Liu Ying explained the strategy of "work-for-relief" to the county magistrates of these two places, so that the county magistrates of the two places can know where the money and grain were allocated. Although this trick is so clever, after describing it, it is actually just that. Luyang County can do it, and Ruyang people can do it.

But why does Zhengzhou, the county magistrate of Yangren County, have no such intention at all? The reason is that the strategy of using labor for relief itself has extremely high requirements, such as the coordination of materials and the management of refugees. If there are flaws in one of the links, it is likely to cause other problems.

It is precisely because of this that Zhengzhou, the county magistrate of Yangren County, had no intention of taking risks at all. He would rather spend some money, grain and manpower to let Luyang County take this risk for them.

In fact, the same is true for Luyang County. If it weren’t for the fact that too many refugees had gathered in the territory, Liu Ying and the Marquis of Luyang Township would not want to take risks, but there was no way out. Work-for-relief was the only way out in Luyang County at present.

However, what puzzled Zhao Yu was that what role did this country play in this matter?

On the way to the next county town, Zhao Yu couldn't help but ask in the carriage: "Mr. Liu, father, the refugee problem is so serious this year, why didn't the court send people to provide relief?"

Compared with the silence of the Marquis of Luyang Township, the magistrate of County Liu sighed and said, "The Second Young Master, I, don't know that in recent years, all parts of our Jin Dynasty have encountered natural disasters. The court did not ignore it, but did not care. In addition to the rebellion in the south..." At this point, he looked at Zhao Yu, laughed dryly and tried to get away with it.

Unfortunately, Zhao Yu could hear it clearly and couldn't help asking: "Rebellion? Mr. Liu, what rebellion?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Hou of Luyang Township rebuked impatiently: "What do you do if you ask so much?"

"Qinghou."

Seeing that Zhao Yu was scolded by his father, Liu felt a little disgusted and quickly dissuaded: "It's not a big deal for the Xianghou Mo to get angry."

He turned his head and said to Zhao Yu, "Since the second son wants to know, it's okay to tell the second son, but I hope the second son will not spread it."

Zhao Yu nodded.

Seeing this, Liu Gong then stroked his beard and whispered: "Do you know that the refugees in Luyang County in our country have migrated from all over the country? Wancheng! The reason is that the troops stationed in Wancheng. Wang Shangde, the general in Jingshui, collected a large amount of food and grass in the local area to fight against the rebels. This led to serious deficits in the Guanjian of the counties in Wancheng and Jingshui. In addition, the natural disaster in the past two years has caused thousands of refugees to flee north. Rebellions have also occurred in other places in recent years, so that the court sent troops to suppress them many times, consuming too much food and grass... Natural disasters are second, and military disasters are the key."

"oh oh."

Zhao Yu nodded suddenly and turned his head to look at his father.
