Chapter 460: Opening the Warehouse and Shaking the Grain
The officials greeted each other with a smile, the atmosphere seemed to be very harmonious, everyone had a good mood when they got up in the morning, according to the normal script process, when Song Ming invited Chen Fei and others to enter the granary for inspection, Chen Fei and others should be very polite to enter the granary together, play officially, and occasionally give instructions on work or something. That's the right way to open it.
But... Chen Fei just doesn't follow the routine!
"Wait!" Chen Fei suddenly stopped Song Ming, Song Ming's footsteps slowed down, and he turned his head in embarrassment. "What else do you command?"
Chen Fei pointed to the empty scene nearby and was a little unhappy, "Didn't you say that you would open a warehouse to revitalize grain?" Why is it that there are no people to receive food? ”
"This..."Song Ming was speechless, but he quickly reacted and said with a smile: "Don't blame, my lord, I'm afraid that many people don't know about Zhenliang, so I'll let the people below inform you." ”
"No need, before I came, I had already sent the soldiers in the barracks to inform the surrounding villages and towns, I believe that it will not be long before many people come, Lord Song must make preparations on the spot, don't make mistakes, this official will personally supervise." Chen Fei said with a smile.
Song Ming's face twitched and twitched, Zhenliang? Are you playing really? I just said it casually yesterday, you are forcing me!
Although Song Ming had 10,000 sentences in his heart, he still didn't dare to say anything in front of Chen Fei, only smiled embarrassedly, and whispered: "My lord, this Zhenliang... Isn't it better to keep a low profile? There is not much food in the granary, and if the villagers from all over the country come, the food will not be enough. ”
Chen Fei didn't care, and patted Song Ming's shoulder casually: "Then it's less, but you can't let the people go back with their mouths and hands, everyone must get it, what's more, Lord Song, we are doing good deeds, how can there be a low-key saying about doing good deeds?" It is true that all the hungry people should have something to eat. As for the sauce purple, let's go into the granary and have a look. ”
Chen Fei pushed Song Ming forward and said angrily.
Song Ming turned his head with a bitter face, his cheeks twitching. "Your Excellency, you..."
"There's nothing about this and that, hurry up, don't talk nonsense, time is precious, and I'll have to arrange Zhenliang later!"
Song........ I can't say how hard I am! You did it on purpose, right?
"Yo, the grain in the granary is stacking quite slowly!" Chen Fei walked into the granary and smiled when he saw the stacked bags full of grain. I don't know if the expression on his face was mockery or whatever.
Song Ming's mood was obviously not very high, probably because he had a headache and was going to open a warehouse to revitalize the grain later, nodded absentmindedly, and waved his hand to let his subordinate officials dock with Chen Fei.
Chen Fei sneered when he saw Song Ming's appearance, and then checked the grain with the officials.
To be honest, this was the first time Chen Fei had seen so much grain, and it was also the first time he had inspected the granary, so the tedious and boring actions made him quickly lose interest.
He doesn't care how much grain is in the granary, he is more concerned about how much grain can be distributed from the granary later, hoping that the people who will come later will have more......
Chen Fei began to desert, and he didn't listen to the figures reported to him by the officials, anyway, these grains were all placed here for appearance, it didn't matter how much, the real big head should be in those caves where the grain was stored hiddenly, or somewhere else. Do you want to find a way to force out all those places?
"My lord? My lord? ”
Chen Fei came back to his senses, and Song Ming smiled flatteringly in front of him.
"My lord, after thinking about it, I feel that there are many inappropriateness in opening a warehouse to revitalize grain."
Chen Fei raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically, "What's wrong?" ”
"This.... Your Excellency, you also know that Luzhou is not peaceful now, and there are as many as four or five thousand rebels in rebellion. ”
Before Chen Fei could speak, Song Ming immediately continued: "What's more, this is not the first time that these rioters have robbed the granary, if there is any more chaos, not to mention the problem of responsibility, even our own safety will be difficult to preserve." ”
"You are responsible for safety, anyway, my words have been released, you can't be untrustworthy, not to mention that there are so many guards in Luzhou, are they all eating dry food? I've sent them all. I'm surprised, Lord Song, you seem to be worried about Zhenliang? So how did you get the grain up before? ”
"This..."Song Ming was asked, his words were stopped, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he had to smile and not speak, saying that he would handle this matter well.
After the report was completed, Chen Fei walked around and walked outside the granary.
At this time, some people had gathered in the open space in front of them, most of them poor people in ragged clothes who looked hungry.
Some of them dragged their families, some were alone, some stood in awe and fear, their eyes showed fear, but more, the desire to survive!
They are afraid of the government, but if they want to live, it is such a simple reason that they stand in front of the granary and wait for the so-called opening of the warehouse to boost the grain.
There are not many people coming, Chen Fei plans to directly start the work of revitalizing grain, only in this way will more people come, and .......
"Lord Song, send some guards over, and then get ready to start." Chen Fei stood in front of the granary and gave a faint order.
Song Ming had no choice but to start arranging this matter, and soon, there were many more guards in armor near the granary, holding weapons one by one, waiting for them, frightening some people to turn around and leave.
"Folks, stay here!" Chen Fei suddenly came out and stopped the people who were about to turn around and leave.
"Ladies and gentlemen! I am Chen Fei, the deposed ambassador sent by the imperial court, I have no malice today, I just want to open a warehouse and distribute food to you, so don't be afraid, we have no malicious ........"
After Chen Fei's sincere retention, the originally small number of people finally kept the letter suspiciously, and he immediately asked Song Ming to open the granary.
When bags of grain were carried out and placed in front of the people, the people, who were still afraid, suddenly burst into wolf-like eyes, staring at the bags of grain with green eyes, and their throats rolled unconsciously as if they had been hungry for many meals and were on the verge of collapse.
This reminded Chen Fei of the first time he saw Zhang Qing, and the little guy also looked like this. Turning his head, Zhang Qing's thin figure stood behind several soldiers, almost invisible from the obscure, and he was brought because he had an important task assigned to him later.
"Everyone line up! Come and get food in an orderly manner, everyone has it! Don't be in a hurry, don't cut in line, don't grab, don't push........" a small official shouted at the top of his voice.
Although the refugees were hungry, they still lined up in an orderly manner to wait for the food to be distributed, and everyone tacitly agreed that the women and children should receive the food first.
One person can receive a small bag of grain, about five catties of grain. The people who got the food smiled one after another, glanced at Chen Fei gratefully, bowed silently, and then left with the food.
Chen Fei calmly accepted the salute of the people, and believed that these people who received the grain would definitely tell others that more and more people would know that the government was opening a warehouse to revitalize the grain, and in this way, it would inevitably lead to some people.......
