She delivered food in ancient times

Chapter 39
"But..." Thinking of the scenes he saw in those refugee gathering places, Ji Xi didn't know how to speak for a moment.

Under Meng Qing's gaze, Ji Xi continued to speak with difficulty.

"I didn't expect them to be so miserable. Many people slept together, and there was only one straw tent. I also saw several children who were starving. Their heads and stomachs were very big, but their bodies were so thin that they didn't have any flesh. No, looking at them reminds us of ourselves before."

"So, I just"

"So you didn't do anything and came back again." Meng Qingbang Ji Xi added.

"Yes."

Looking at Ji Xi with her head bowed, Meng Qing didn't know what to say about her for a moment. The children she was talking about were most likely children who had eaten Guanyin soil. If they were not treated in time, they might not survive. Well, it's fine if you don't know, but if you know it, she can't do it if you tell her to turn a blind eye.

Thinking about the remaining money, if some of it is used to save those children, it should not affect the next plan.

"Do you want to help them?" Although it was an interrogative sentence, Meng Qing used an affirmative tone.

Ji Xi was so startled that he suddenly raised his head, and stared at Meng Qing blankly, with complicated emotions in his eyes.

It took a while to find my voice. "Yes, Sister Meng Qing is right. I want to help them. Although it is beyond my control, I want to help them."

In those short words, there is a girl's fiery sincerity.

"Help if you want."

Although Meng Qing's voice was soft, it fell on Ji Xi's ear, but it was like a thunderstorm, making her brain buzz.

"Sister Meng Qing, you agree. Aren't you going to stop me?"

Meng Qing smiled slightly at this, "Why do you think I will stop you, I will not stop you, those rewards are for you, and you don't need my consent to use them however you want."

Meng Qing always feels that it is very important for a person to maintain the purity of his heart, and it is not a bad thing to show compassion to the weak, but sometimes it is necessary to pay attention to the method and method of helping others, otherwise good intentions may cause evil results.

Things like this happen all the time in modern times.

Meng Qing naturally wants to escort her sister's kindness.

Ji Xi nodded nonchalantly. Meng Qing's serious expression just now made her think that she did not agree with this matter, and even made the decision to do it secretly by herself. Unexpectedly, Miss Meng Qing did not object when things turned around.

"If you want to do good things, I won't stop you, but you can't do it blindly. You must have your own plan for everything. You should make a plan first, show it to me, and I will approve it. Then you can implement it. "

Meng Qing put forward her own request to Ji Xi.

Naturally, Ji Xi would not have any objections, and agreed without hesitation.

"By the way, when you went looking for them, were all those young men there? I remember that the county magistrate should be recruiting talents." Meng Qing asked.

Through what happened just now, Meng Qing feels that she can properly ask Ji Xi and the others about the things on the street. After all, they often run on the street and know a lot of news.

"The place I was looking for is all there. I have heard of Mr. Fang's notice, and those people should know it too. I heard that some of those people said that they could not go, and if they went, they would be banned by the government. If people are arrested and sent to corvee, they will be exhausted to death." Ji Xi searched out the news he heard before from his mind, and told Meng Qing.

That's how it turned out. Hearing Ji Xi's words, Meng Qing suddenly realized, no wonder those people didn't go to the county government to sign up for the construction team, but instead stopped the street to grab food.

It can't be that there are some people who want to start a peasant uprising.Deeply influenced by the novel, Meng Qing started conspiracy theories in an instant, guessing wildly out of control.

Immediately realizing what she was thinking, she shook her head hastily, she could not be, she is doing well now, and she doesn't want to live in troubled times for the time being.

It's just that they don't know about this matter, Master Fang and Mr. Liang, do they know about it.

How could the two of them not know about such a big matter.

It is precisely because I know that I am having a headache in the county government at this time.

People with headaches need to add another master.

"My lord, we can't let the rumors continue, otherwise it will be very detrimental to our follow-up plans."

Master frowned tightly and said in a low voice.

Mr. Fang and Mr. Liang nodded together when they heard the words. It was true. Everything went smoothly. They also recruited a large number of young and strong refugees. The money sponsored by the merchants was also registered in the warehouse. The construction of roads and city walls is about to start. Who would have thought that at such a critical juncture, such a message would come out from nowhere. These days, those who were originally waiting for the distribution of work in peace, gradually became agitated.

Mr. Fang kept walking up and down in the lobby. After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind, stopped in his tracks, and said coldly: "No matter those people, first arrange the recruited people. In addition, after the original salary On the basis of this, one person will pack another meal, if you let the word go, people are temporarily full, if you want to join, you have to wait for the next time."

Master Liang couldn't be worried, so he heard the master clap his hands vigorously, and said excitedly: "My lord, this is a great trick. Once we increase the treatment, and once the package is provided, it will surely stabilize people's hearts. These refugees have been traveling for so long. Isn't it just to be able to eat well? I'm afraid even money is not attractive to them at this time. They also released a message to stop recruiting workers. Those rumors will naturally be self-defeating."

"The adults are brilliant. The little ones bow down."

"Haha, the one who knows me is Master." Fang Hui was naturally very happy when he saw that Master knew everything about it. Master Liang also understood the reason behind Master's explanation, and became excited.

Afterwards, the three of them discussed again, and went to work on the specific measures to be implemented.

Soon, two pieces of news came out from the county government successively.

One is that the refugees who have successfully joined the construction team can get a full meal in addition to their wages of [-] Wen a day.

The second is that we have already recruited enough people, and we are not recruiting now.

The two pieces of news, one after the other, directly blasted those refugees out of the pot.

Those who signed up to join the construction team were naturally rejoiced. It was already good to have money to get it. Farmers don’t have much else, so they just have to work hard, especially those who are dragging their families. They can buy it in a day. , can always let the family take a bite, so as not to starve to death.

Now it's all right, the county government still provides a full meal, and there is a ration for a strong laborer, which is no less than a chance of survival for them.

Those with simple thoughts just knelt down on the ground and called out to Master Qingtian, tears streaming down their faces under the agitated mood.
