Back to Ancient Times to Make Pen Pals - Chapter 140

【Are you OK? Are there any injuries? Zhu Yuan wrote immediately.

Xie Zheng seemed to be very busy there, and it took a long time to reply: [Nothing]

nothing? Is that an injury, isn’t it serious? Still not injured? Zhu Yuan is anxious: [That’s—]

[When buying medicine and food] Xie Zheng has changed the subject and started to make a list for her. [Large] I just finished writing, and immediately realized something was wrong, so I quickly changed my words, [No, don’t buy it. Direct people to send the money to Wuzhou, I will send someone to buy there]

The imperial court hasn’t arrived yet, so she can’t know the news.

【it is good! ] Zhu Yuan knows that this is a big deal, [Do you want to send more people to help? 】

【Do not. Don’t act rashly. I will write a memorial and send it to the capital urgently, the court will send someone over, you must not expose yourself]

Zhu Yuan bites her lip: [Okay, then I will go to raise money immediately]

[Well] Xie Zheng thought of Zhu Yuan’s property as a financial fan, and added, [Don’t worry, I will make up this money in the future]

Zhu Yuan can’t believe it: [Life is a matter of life! The shop is there, and money can be earned at any time in the future. At this time, who cares about the money? ] Is this how this fellow sees himself? She was a little angry, “If I contribute more, maybe I can save one more person. If I can’t even afford the money, can I still call it a human? 】

If it weren’t for her special circumstances, she would have liked to have someone buy something and send it there immediately.

Xie Zheng was a little startled.

Today’s shocking disaster scene emerged before us.

The walls are ruined and the sorrow is everywhere.

His fingers trembled.

Human life…?

Zhu Yuan said a lot, remembering that it was a time when the clock was racing, and he was busy writing again: [I will go to Liao Zhai to find it later and see if there are any ways to deal with earth movement]

Xie Zheng regained his senses: [Well, don’t worry about this, I have read through the relevant books and I still remember how much]

After all, he had participated in court affairs in his previous life. When he was famous, he had read the chronicle records of Dayan.

Dayan has a vast territory, and floods and ground movements happen from time to time. He just looked through it at the time, but he didn’t expect to be able to use it today.

[That’s OK, then I will deal with money matters first]

【it is good】

The two stopped talking and were busy with each other.

Xie Zheng quickly finished writing the memorial, put it in a letter bag, sealed it with fire paint, and handed it to the guards: “Go to our own letter point and send it to the capital as soon as possible.”

“Yes!” The guard who had been pulling the horse and waiting there respectfully took the memorial, carefully wrapped it in oil paper, stuffed it into his arms, arched his hand towards Xie Zheng, immediately turned on his horse, and galloped away.

Xie Zheng watched him leave, sighed secretly, and began to ponder over what happened to Yan Ning.

Qian Dahu was really secretly digging into silver mines. His people have not found a place yet, this earth movement, the mountain collapsed, the ore silver was exposed, and the silver mine was exposed.

Then I learned that not only Qian Dahu, but the Liu family, Wu family, Huang family and others in Lan Ning all have a share.

No wonder they would rather take the risk to expel each county magistrate. If the county magistrate finds out, this silver mine must be returned to the national treasury, and they will have nothing to share.

In addition.

In his previous life, he had never heard that Channing moved on the ground.

Just by looking at the collapse of houses in Channing County, we know the scale of the movement and the seriousness of the casualties.

Looking back on it carefully, he should have studied at the Ministry of Households in his previous life. Indeed, he has never heard that the Ministry of Households has allocated disaster relief funds to Nanning, and has not even heard that Yanning has applied for an autumn tax reduction or exemption.

That’s right, if he guards such a large silver mine, he will be able to cope with the taxation by just digging some silver. As for the dead…have money, are you afraid that you won’t be able to recruit people?

These families have a good calculation.

If it weren’t for him here…or if it wasn’t for these people’s children and grandchildren in his hands, maybe this earth movement would be the time of his death.

Xie Zheng sneered.

This is what truly regards human life as a waste. He is ashamed to thank Zheng–

“Master,” An Fu ran over in gray, with traces of scratches on his hands.

Xie Zheng returned to his senses, raised the paper with one hand, threw it in the brazier, and asked, “How is the situation?”

At the moment he was in the wilderness outside the city, sitting on a table and chair that An Rui had temporarily moved, writing letterhead–this guy didn’t know where he dug a brazier with charcoal bars so that he could burn private paper and ink.

All his guards had been withdrawn from the mountain. Fortunately, it had rained two days ago. When the ground moved, they moved to a higher place.

Fortunately, the mountain where they are located has not collapsed, otherwise, if the land moved, people like him…

Even so, several unfortunately were stoned and lost their lives. The rest were more or less injured.

Even he himself was smashed half of his shoulder.

He sleeps very lightly, and wakes up if there is a slight turbulence. At the beginning of the earth movement, he escaped after a moment of stunnedness, and dragged the vigil An Rui out.

The injury was caused by An Fushi who was taking care of packing things. Fortunately, the injury was on the left hand and did not hinder writing.

It was the old guy that made Anfu cry.

The county government where they lived was a newly built blue brick house. He reacted quickly to the collapse of the wall and the death of many servants.

Worried about the aftershocks, Anfu and several people hurriedly moved out of the city with Xie Zheng, and sent people to find the guards hidden in the mountains, and asked them to withdraw.

Then, Xie Zheng set up a temporary station in the open space outside the city, and at the same time asked Anfu to lead people into the city to check the specific situation.

The gray-headed An Fu breathed a sigh of relief, and said quickly, “The walls and houses are mostly collapsed. If you want to go in to save people, I’m afraid it will take a lot of effort, and you have to pay attention to avoiding the wall roots that have not fallen. And,” he said. Some can’t go on, “The west of the city is sinking, the river outside the city…”

Xie Zheng had an ominous premonition: “How?”

An Fu, an old man unexpectedly choked up: “The river outside the city has changed course and it starts to flow back into the city…”

Xie Zheng was horrified. The west of the city is a residential area, with houses connected to each other, population…

The climate in the south is pleasant and the grain production is extremely high, so the population is extremely large.

According to the analysis of Xie Zheng’s aides, although Yan Ning is poor, it is not the population that is poor, but the poverty is levying excessively. But the tax paid by Lan Ning is far from that.

After all, the decree is still unreasonable, and evil forces are rampant in the countryside.

Say ten thousand words and one thousand, this kind of disaster comes down, the number of casualties, I’m afraid…

Having personally experienced the disaster, Xie Zheng felt that the burden on himself was so heavy for the first time in two lifetimes.

“Changhe.” He said solemnly.

The guard following him hurriedly responded: “Subordinates are here.”

“You immediately go in and find Zhenwu, let him concentrate on rescuing Xicheng, how much can you save before the water comes down.” There are many people over there who cannot be injured and must be rescued first.

“Yes!”

The guard responded, turned and dashed away.

Xie Zheng turned his head to look at An Fu: “You ran all morning, so go to the meeting first.”

An Fu said with a bitter face, “Where can I rest in this situation?” He glanced at Xie Zheng’s gray clothes and asked, “Master, all of our things have been turned out. I need a slave to find you clothes. Replace it?”

Xie Zheng was out of anger: “No need.” He curled his eyebrows, “If you are in a panic, go to An Rui to help.”

An Rui is leading people to chop down trees and make stretchers nearby.

An Fu refused: “There is nothing we can do just now. Now that the busy people are all busy, how can there be no one to serve the master.”

There were indeed few people around him, and all who could be sent out. Xie Zheng sighed, stopped talking, held his pen, bowed his head and began to write letters of assistance to the surrounding state capitals, asking them to send someone to help.

This is what he wants. An Fu breathed a sigh of relief, and slid in to polish the ink for him.

***

On September 11, the thirteenth year of Chengjia, the ground moved in Channing. The mountains collapsed, the rivers changed roads, the temples and residences were destroyed, and the people of Channing County died and injured countless people.

Chaotang shook.

Emperor Chengjia immediately ordered the neighboring state capital to send people for rescue, and at the same time ordered the Ministry of Household to allocate funds for people to purchase supplies to help local people through the difficulties.

The Hubu Shangshu immediately knelt down: “Your Majesty, this year, the spring floods in the south of the Yangtze River and the drought in the north of Shandong, the autumn taxes have not yet been collected and put into the treasury.

“It’s alright.” Emperor Chengjia didn’t get angry, “Don’t shout poor here, the third child has solved this problem for you.”

“?” Hubu Shangshu looked up blankly.

Emperor Chengjia shook his hand at the memorial: “Zan Ning moved, and a silver mine was shaken out.”

The officials were in an uproar.

As soon as Hubu Shangshu changed his bitter melon face, he smiled openly and said, “Oh, my Highness is really my lucky star.” Well, not only does the Hubu not need to pay, but also can get a lot of money back!

Everyone was stunned, and then realized that the third prince Xie Zheng, who had been missing for nearly a year, was actually sent to such a remote county?

There was King Jing and King Ning who couldn’t help but secretly looked at the crowd.

The two of them looked very strange.

Also, which prince would surrender himself to the place as the county magistrate, that’s all, he turned his head and encountered ground movement.

Harm, should I say that His Royal Highness the Third Prince is too honest? Or is he too unlucky?

When the undercurrents in the imperial court were surging, and everyone’s eyes were focused on Zan Ning, Zhu Yuan’s money that had been searched for by Zhu Yuan had arrived in Wuzhou.

After the aides who remained in Wuzhou took over, they immediately led people to purchase supplies.

At this time, the people of Wuzhou also knew about the land movement in Channing, and the children in the school also knew about the disaster in their hometown. The younger ones were fine, and the older ones all consciously took their brothers and sisters with them. Anxiously waiting for these people’s arrangements.

When the purchase of materials was completed, the staff followed Xie Zheng’s order and brought all the dolls with them to Lanning.

No one pleased this venue. But Qian, Liu, Wu, and Huang, who could speak for themselves, still kept them. Although they were more or less injured, they still saved their lives.

Xie Zheng thought of the news of the previous life being covered up to death, and naturally guessed this.

It’s just that he didn’t have time to spare the manpower to fix them.

Now half a month later, all the people who could be saved in the county town and surrounding villages have been rescued, and the post-disaster cleanup and reconstruction are proceeding in an orderly manner.

The family members began to play tricks, trying to win him into the silver mine guard team.

“… How much money can you earn even if you are an official for a lifetime?” Qian Dahu cleverly said, “Shan Ning is in a remote location. As long as we don’t go out of this matter, this mine is rich enough for our family. century.”

At the moment they are gathering in Xie Zheng’s temporary office.

The simple wooden house was a bit dim. Recently, Xie Zheng, who was too busy to fix his face, held Hu stubble and frowned, watching Qian Dahu brag.

Qian Dahu lobbied for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion: “Master Qiao, if you join us, we will let you take the big head!” He stretched out his chubby fingers, reluctantly compared to three, “We’ve discussed it, you can divide you 30%. ! How do you like it?”

The four families, plus Xie Zheng, make a total of five, giving Xie Zheng 30%, which is really very, very generous.

Xie Zheng paid his forehead with one hand and said, “Not so.”

Qian Dahu were startled.

“If I want it, I want it all. Why do I want to share it with you?” Xie Zheng said coldly, “You are worthy of sharing with me?” The world belongs to his Xie family, why does he want to distribute it to some untouchables? ?

Qian Dahu and others:…

Little magistrate, so big!
