Chapter 732 Improvement of Corrupt Officials

Chapter 732 Improvement of Corrupt Officials (1)

The floods in the Huan River area were severe, and countless people were drowned.

The disaster relief officials dispatched by the imperial court are progressing very slowly. They have been here for almost a month. Not to mention helping those victims rebuild their homes, they have not even solved the basic problem of food and clothing.

Two bowls of gruel are given out every day, not to mention the adults, and the children are not full. The problem of gnawing tree bark, digging grass roots and even eating soft soil is still unsolved.

When you are sick, you can only suffer. There is no need to hope that those officials will come to save people. The hope for the officials has long been exhausted in the repeated disappointments.

The officers and soldiers are very cold-blooded. Except for coming out every day when the porridge is served, the officers and soldiers will come to collect the corpses only when those who cannot bear it die.

The people in the Huanhe area scolded the sent officials and the imperial court very severely, but they stopped scolding after cursing and scolding.

But what is strange is that these days, this starving situation has actually changed——

Someone donated a large amount of food to them, and I don't know if the official had a sudden kindness, and finally knew how to show compassion to the poor people like them, and did not greedy for the food.

Three meals a day are provided, except for the porridge in the morning, the other two meals are actually rice, fragrant rice.

And not only that, the porridge in the morning is meat porridge, the meat is as big as a little finger, and there must be several pieces in a bowl of porridge, or egg porridge, in which the yolk and egg white can be seen in each bowl of egg porridge.

The rice grains are thick and fragrant, much thicker than the thickest porridge before.

There is rice at noon and evening, and some meat sauce will be poured on top of each bowl of rice. If you are lucky, you can also eat a little minced meat, and each person will be given an egg.

Of course, no matter if it is porridge or rice, each person can only eat one bowl, but now one bowl of porridge is as thick as the previous two or three bowls, and the big white rice is also full for them.

Just this food, not to mention being able to eat enough, but it is absolutely no problem to eat [-]% to [-]% full.

There is no need to eat the unpalatable and bitter bark anymore. If someone is sick and reports to the public, officers and soldiers will come down and take these people away immediately. The smell is much better than before.

According to these sick people, officers and soldiers moved them into a comfortable house with many other sick people.

It was the benevolent person who donated food for them to buy a lot of medicine, and when someone was sick, he would cook those medicines and eat them. During the illness, the food was better than those outside, so the recovery was naturally faster.

These people described the treatment process very well, and those who have never been sick want to go in and enjoy the service once they get sick.

But the most touching thing is that the benevolent person not only donated to them in terms of food, but was also willing to pay for them to rebuild their homes.

The great good man recruited a large number of strong men from among them, and built their houses together with the officers and soldiers, demolished those houses that were damaged by the flood, and rebuilt them.

Not only is there enough food for each meal, but there is also wages, ten yuan per person per day, which is paid every day, and the money is paid when the work is done.

The great benevolent people donated so much food for them, and also paid for them to buy materials for building houses. This sum is all money, and all of it is used for them, the victims of the disaster.

It was too late for the victims to be grateful to her, so how could they ask for any wages.

They all clamored that they didn't want money, they were willing to do it and rebuild their homes.
