Chapter 28: Compassion

Listening to everyone talk about the affairs of the Jiangdong Gate Thousand Households, Yang Feng's mood was also extremely heavy, originally he just came to office with the mood of being a monk for a day and hitting the clock for a day, but what he saw today and what he heard now made him unable to stay out of it.

Yang Feng thought for a while, and a doubt suddenly rose in his heart, and asked everyone again: "Everyone, there is still something unknown about this official. The lives of our thousands of households are so poor, doesn't the imperial court have some subsidies? ”

"Naturally, there are some."

Hearing this, everyone was helpless, Geng Bingyi, who was the highest status of Qianhu except Yang Feng, said: "When our predecessor Qianhu Di was still alive, he would lick his old face and go to Nanjing Bingbei Road every year, and begged the soldier to give him some money and food, and the soldier would send a little coarse grain or scattered silver when he was in a good mood, but where could he afford to support so many people in our guard house with these things alone, so in recent years, the life of our guard has become more and more difficult, and many newborn babies even had to die because they had no milk to drink. ”

Hearing this, many people's faces showed sadness, although these officers are also considered to be an exploiting class, but people's hearts are flesh and blood, seeing that some of their subordinates are starving to death, no matter how hard they are, they will not be able to bear it.

Hearing this, Yang Feng didn't have any intention to eat, and wanted to put down the chopsticks, but when he thought that if he put down the chopsticks, these subordinates would definitely think that he had something to think of them, thinking of this, Yang Feng barely ate some more, until an hour later, the people who were full of wine and food dispersed, but before leaving, they also left two servants, who were called taking care of Yang Feng's daily life, as for the real purpose, only they know.

That night, Yang Feng rested in this thousand-household house, which was also the residence of the predecessor Qianhu, since the death of the childless thousand-household couple, this house was also empty, cheapening Yang Feng's guy.

Lying on the somewhat erect bed board, Yang Feng couldn't sleep, and his mind was stuffed with some messy things. Originally, Yang Feng did not have any sense of identity with the Ming Dynasty, especially in the days when he was almost starved to death in the first few days of this time and space, so his impression of this dynasty was even worse, and then even if he stayed here for more than a month, he just regarded this place as a place where he changed his fate and earned the first pot of gold in his life, but today he saw these things that touched him greatly, and those military households, women and children who were shivering in the cold wind seemed to appear one by one in front of his eyes.

The thought of doing something for these poor people kept swirling in Yang Feng's mind.

"Alas, anyway, I have made so much money recently, so I just go to modern times to buy some food and supplies, help these poor people, and give back to my compatriots in this era, anyway, modern food is so cheap, getting one or two hundred tons of grain over is enough for them to survive this harsh winter." Yang Feng used this reason to convince himself in his heart.

In this way, the white belly gradually appeared in the far distance of the sky, and soon the first rays of sunlight crept through the cracks in the clouds.

Yang Feng, who had not slept all night, got up and sent one of the servants to invite Geng Bingyi, and by the time Geng Bingyi arrived, it was already two quarters of an hour later. When Geng Bingyi arrived in a hurry, Yang Feng, who had already finished washing, was sitting in the living room drinking tea.

Geng Bingyi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Lord Qianhu, I don't know what important things to call for such an early term. ”

Geng Bingyi was a little apprehensive when he said this, although he and everyone had already said the situation of Qianhu in a slightly exaggerated tone last night, but I don't know what this new Qianhu Lord thought in his heart, if he asked everyone for the benefits that belonged to him, how should he give it, in order to ponder these problems, he didn't sleep all night last night, but he didn't have such a good physique as Yang Feng, so now there is still a layer of black circles under his eyes.

Looking at Geng Bingyi with a worried look on his face, Yang Feng at this time was also feeling the majesty brought by this official position on his body, this man in his thirties was an old man from the Thousand Households of Jiangdong Gate, but in this way, he was so uneasy when facing his own thousand households who were airborne halfway.

Yang Feng didn't speak, but continued to look at Geng Bingyi with his eyes, until Geng Bingyi was covered in hair, and then said slowly: "Deputy Geng Qianhu, what you said last night was thought about overnight, thinking that the change of our Qianhu is imperative, otherwise we will really starve to death." ”

Geng Bingyi smiled bitterly: "So that my lord knows, in fact, I wanted to tell you yesterday, and yesterday you offended the Lord Shi of the military department in your words, I am afraid that from now on, the military department will never allocate a grain of grain to us again." ”

"Hmph, these stupid corpse vegetarians, they can only use this little trick." Yang Feng snorted disdainfully before saying, "You don't have to worry about food, this official naturally has a way." Today, the official will go to Nanjing City first, find a way to get a batch of food and clothing, and distribute it to the soldiers of the Thousand Households, so that they can spend this winter in peace. ”

"My lord, do you really have a way to get food and clothing?" Geng Bingyi was overjoyed when he heard this, every winter in the Qianhu Institute, there are elderly people and children who die because they can't survive hunger and cold, and it would be great if there was a batch of food to help the emergency.

"Naturally, this official won't lie to you." Yang Feng glanced at Geng Bingyi, who was nervous, with some amusement, the modern society in later generations wasted enough food to feed tens of millions of people every year, as long as there is money, it is too easy to feed a few thousand people.

However, Yang Feng still had to tell this deputy Qianhu, who had the highest status besides him, "Deputy Geng Qianhu, you have to remember that in the past few days when the official is away, you have to maintain the order of the Qianhu House, and the official doesn't want to see something that the official doesn't want to see after coming back." ”

Geng Bingyi's back suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and to his ears, Yang Feng was insinuating to beat him, asking him not to make any small means behind his back.

"Of course, you don't need to say that you know it, so don't worry, your lordship."

Yang Feng nodded: "That's good, since Deputy Geng Qianhu has said so, this official naturally believes you, so good, the official will go back to Nanjing first, as fast as four or five days, as slow as ten days and half a month will come back, during this period everything here depends on you!" ”

After instructing Geng Bingyi, Yang Feng hurriedly ate something and rode his Huang Cong horse towards Nanjing City......
