"There's no need to say it so seriously, if I save Qiao Zhong and Qiao Guan, will I sit back and watch their families suffer?" Lin Jian picked up Hu Zhiyong's father and son, and said, "I have a place to use you for the current disaster relief, and I am not in a hurry to talk about other things for ......the time being."

Lin Jian didn't tell Hu Zhiyong the details of Changshan Island, so naturally he would not easily accept Hu Zhiyong's investment, and the disaster relief was the most urgent at the moment, and other things would be considered in the long run when the disaster relief matters passed.

"The Hu family is below the mediocre level, and they listen to the dispatch of the adults." Hu Zhiyong stood up from the ground and said.

Lin Jian didn't expect to encounter such a serious disaster this time, Zhou Pu, Wu Qi, Big Loach Lord Ge Cunxin and Ao Canghai were all good at martial arts, leading the troops to charge into battle were their specialty, and relieving the victims was not their specialty, Lin Mengde, Cao Ziang, Lin Jingzhong, Little Loach Ye Ge Cunxin and others who were good at these were all left in Jiangning for him.

Lin Jian is short of manpower, and Hu Zhiyong, Hu Zhicheng, Hu Qiaoyi and others are exactly what he needs.

Xiao Taoyuan is the most urgent threat to Changshan Island, once the news leaks, without waiting for the luxury family to expand the East China Sea Kou forces north, Xiao Taoyuan will send troops to wipe out Changshan Island. For Xiao Taoyuan, Changshan Island, which saved the young people's meat tickets, and the families of the young people are also his biggest threat, maybe the imperial court will hinder the situation in the southeast and connive at him for a while, but such a big stain, his political enemies in the army or in the court will not let it go, of course, it is to remove the stain to let him sleep at ease.

Although Changshan Island has limited manpower, people have been sent to keep an eye on the movements of Shuiying in Ninghai Town and Chongzhou County, and always pay attention to the wind and grass on both sides.

The information of the young people's families was gradually compiled into a book, and Lin Jian couldn't meet with the young people's families, but he knew their situation well.

Chongzhou originally belonged to the Huainan Salt Farm of Hailing Salt Iron Division. It is said that it is a salt field, because the Yangtze River enters the sea in Chongzhou, the eastern sea area is diluted by a large influx of river water, and the benefits of salt production in Chongzhou are very thin, and a large area of tidal flat land is gradually reduced to a grassland attached to the Huainan Salt Field, which provides boiled salt forage for the Huainan Salt Field. The county has only been established for seventy or eighty years, and there is no real powerful family in the county.

Hu family ancestor was originally a lowly salt household, when Chongzhou was established as a county, only to break away from the salt household, become a tenant farmer, after two generations of hard savings, there is a sugar workshop to Hu Zhiyong, Hu Zhicheng brothers, in Chongzhou to be regarded as a solid family.

Last year, in order to scrape together 2,000 taels of ransom silver, the Hu family was already on the verge of bankruptcy.

Hu Zhiyong and Hu Zhizhong have both studied, and have been operating workshops for many years, and they have more knowledge, broader vision, and economic acumen and talents than the landlords who will only hold a few hundred acres of fertile land to live.

Lin Tie told Hu Zhiyong, Hu Qiaoyi and his son a lot of disaster relief matters in the tent, Hu Qiaozhong rushed back when he heard the news, and Lin Tie went out with Ao Canghai to give their father and son and brother a good meeting.

*********

The big loach masters Ge Cunxin and Hu Zhicheng returned from Chongzhou at noon the next day, and Chen Kun, the magistrate of Chongzhou County, did not come forward, and other parts of Chongzhou County were also seriously affected.

"What authority do you have to deal with the disaster situation at the boundary of Chongzhou without authorization?" Chen Kun's curtain seat Geng Weide came to the island, saw Lin Lian's face, there was no other greeting, walked into the tent and shouted a reprimand in front of everyone who Lin Lian organized to greet him, "You have made people go to the county to buy rice and grain without authorization, so that the price of rice in Chongzhou has soared by four or five percent a day, and the people in the county are resentful, can your little prison officer afford this responsibility?" ”

"Xisha Island has suffered such a catastrophe, the gentry and officials have the responsibility of disaster relief, and Lord Lin is also the right time for him to bravely take on the task of disaster relief, Master Geng, do you want Lord Lin to sit and watch these two or thirty thousand victims starve to death?" Hu Zhiyong had just taken effect, so he naturally couldn't get used to Geng Weide's arrogance in front of Lin Bin.

"What are you, this is a place for you to speak?" Geng Weide saw that Lin was silent, and his arrogance became more and more arrogant, and said, "If there is no one to rescue the disaster, these scattered untouchables will disperse on their own. ”

In the tent, in addition to Zhou Pu, Ao Canghai, Hu Zhiyong and others, there were also several representatives elected by the victims, who were actually the leaders of the displaced people. Hearing Geng Weide's words, their expressions changed greatly, but there was no place for them to speak, so they stood aside and didn't say a word, gritting their teeth when they looked at Geng Weide.

"Please sit down and talk...... Lin Lian said with a gloomy face, and asked the people around him impatiently, "Why hasn't the tea been brought over yet?" ”

Geng Weide raised his eyebrows and glanced at Lin Lian, and when he saw that he was so attentive, he sat down quite satisfied.

At this time, the waiter came over with tea, but Lin Jian did not sit down in a hurry and held the tea cup in his hand. Geng Weide only served him tea when Lin Lian was serving, and reached out to come over to pick it up, but Lin Lian flipped his wrist and poured a hot tea straight into his face.

"Ahh Where did Geng Weide think that Lin Jian would splash the boiling hot tea on his face without saying a word, let out a scream like killing a pig, and rolled to the ground to find something cold to put on his face to relieve the pain.

"Dog, dare to sit in front of me, and don't look at your qualifications?" Lin Jian sneered, ignoring Geng Weide, who was wailing on the ground, and said to Li Shuyi, the secretary of the Chongzhou household, "Li Shuban, please sit down and talk." ”

The few officials brought by Geng Weide heard Geng Weide howling miserably in the tent, and rushed in with their knives, and Ao Canghai and several guards quickly disarmed them and pressed them to the ground.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Jian looked at Ao Canghai and the others, and reprimanded, "Who made you so unreasonable to the Yacha of Chongzhou County, Li Shuban is here, you want to rebel?" ”

Li Shuyi's heart mentioned his throat, his hands and feet couldn't help but tremble, and he didn't dare to help Geng Weide, who was still rolling on the ground, looking at Lin Lian still posing to invite him to sit down, he sat down trembling slightly, and instructed the yacha: "We are discussing the disaster, what are you doing here?" The voice has changed the tone, and I am afraid that if I make a slight mistake, I will be treated by Geng Weide.

Zhu Ya sent over and only obeyed Geng Weide's orders, but just pressed Ao Canghai and the guards to the ground, struggling, and after a while, he also saw the situation clearly, after all, Li Shuyi was nominally the only official official present in Chongzhou County, and Geng Weide was just a watchdog of Chen Kun in the county. In the current situation, I can only obey Li Shuyi's orders for the time being and give up struggling.

Lin Jian gave Ao Canghai a close look, and asked him and the guards to take Geng Weide and the Chongzhou County Yacha out to monitor them first.

"It's not an exaggeration to disturb the people's hearts and cut off his tongue, today is a lesson for him," Lin Jian sat down and calmly told Li Shuyi, the secretary of Chongzhou, about the disaster relief, "It is about the death of nearly 30,000 people, Chongzhou County must not stand idly by, is Hong Zepu's lesson not deep enough?" Ask Li Shuban to go back and tell Chen Zhixian: He dares to do nothing about this matter, stirring up the starving people, and there is no shortage of places for him to live in the Jinchuan Prison Island Prison? ”

"Yes, yes, you can't sit idly by, I'll go back to Chenzhi County, I must take care of it." Li Shuyi is like a kowtow worm, what did Lin Tie say, he just nodded yes, thinking to himself: The reputation of the swineherd madman is not called in vain, but Geng Weide doesn't know what to do, so he came over to give Lin Tie a horse.

Lin Jian gave Li Shuyi, Geng Weide and the officials of Chongzhou County a small boat, and asked them to row back to Chongzhou County by themselves, watching them leave, they couldn't help but sigh, this is Chongzhou County's attitude towards the scattered victims of Xisha Island, these dogs really want to force the victims to rebel before they know that these "fart people" and "untouchables" are not so easy to bully.

"Mr. Hu probably knows why my reputation is so bad, right?" Lin Jian turned to Hu Zhiyong and smiled bitterly, "This world is so unbearable, if I don't show my teeth and claws, I don't know how many dogs will climb on my head to and pee!" I am so open-minded that there are not a few people who have offended, and people like me usually do not end well, and there may be no place to die in the future. Whether the Hu family wants to go to the dark with me, you have to think carefully. ”

"If it weren't for the adults, would the second son of the Hu family still have a life? If it weren't for adults, would Zhicheng and Qiao Yi still have their lives? Hu Zhiyong knelt down and said, "How could Zhiyong not know what to do?" The lives of the homeless people are cheap, and the Hu family is now in ruins, can they still expect those high-ranking adults to care? ”

Although Li Shuyi wholeheartedly promised to provide disaster relief, they knew in their hearts that if they wanted nearly 30,000 people not to starve to death and disperse, their hopes could only be pinned on Lin Lian, otherwise, they would have no other way to live except to gather a crowd to rebel.

Hu Zhiyong knelt down, and several leaders of the displaced people also knelt down together, and said: "Please don't abandon me and wait!" ”

"You all get up," Lin Jian said, "The disaster relief cannot rely on Chongzhou County, and Chongzhou County does not dare to prevent me from relieving the disaster here. ”

What he is most anxious about in front of him is that there is no legal disaster relief in the name, otherwise there will be an endless lawsuit with Chongzhou County, even if Gu Wuchen can temporarily press everything down for him, it will be a hidden danger in the future.

Fortunately, at dusk, Lin Mengde came in time to solve this problem, Lin Mengde rode a fast horse to Chongzhou by land, and he brought with him the official document of the inspector who made Lin Tie dispose of it and assisted the disaster relief victims in Chongzhou County.

What is strange is that this order was personally signed by Jia Pengyu, the envoy of the Inspectorate.

There are many strange things about this order, and when he got this official document, Lin Lian saw that even when Jia Pengyu helped him a lot, he still had other intentions, but it was about the death of nearly 30,000 people, and he couldn't manage too much, Lin Lian really needed this official document to deal with it with his authority right now.
