Chapter 25 Don't Take It Seriously

 No matter what is in Quanjiang County.

In a short period of time, Jiang Xuan was not prepared to have an attack. At most, he was just investigating.

Because there are too many victims here, if there is any action, a fire at the city gate will easily affect Chiyu.

Of course.

You don’t need to wait too long.

Ten days and a half month, or a month.

When the floods below recede, these victims will be able to return to their hometowns. Those who refuse to leave are all Ping An Road rebels.

"Brother, there is some commotion among the victims."

"Why?"

"Because someone proposed adding two more cauldrons specifically for the elderly and sick, this call was echoed by many people."

"Reject them..."

Jiang Xuan ignored it at all.

The food he brought was not much, so every grain of rice had to be calculated carefully.

As Magistrate Zhou said: 'If there is a bowl of rice and two people are destined to starve to death, I choose to starve to death as an ordinary citizen and live as a border soldier.'

Jiang Xuan also faces this choice.

And his choice is to keep his youth as strong as possible.

Disaster victims are a collective term.

Anyone affected by a disaster can be called a disaster victim, but the disaster victims themselves are actually divided into three, six, and nine categories.

The first level is young and strong.

As long as these people survive, they will soon be able to put into production and construction, and they will also be the main force who can return to the village to continue to reproduce after the disaster.

The second category is women.

Whether begging for food, begging for food, or selling themselves, women are easier to take action.

The third category is children.

In every troubled time, the power of aristocratic families will expand rapidly.

Some far-sighted families often buy hundreds of children at once, not necessarily for rebellion, but more often as domestic slaves. House slaves like this who have been raised since childhood are the most loyal and useful.

It can even be used as a dead soldier.

As for the fourth grade.

They are the elderly who have children to take care of them.

These elderly people themselves have little ability to survive, but because they are taken care of, some lucky ones can avoid natural disasters.

The worst is the fifth grade.

There is no one to take care of you, or the old and the weak are suffering from illness.

This type of people die the most on the way to escape. When some old people hear that they want to flee, they will refuse without even thinking, fearing that they will die on the way halfway, unable to even return to their roots.

Where is Jiang Xuan?

He can only save as many young people as possible. As long as young people are alive, children will be born next year, and the affected areas will not be cut off from generation to generation.

The elderly and the sick.

Sorry, although giving up is cruel, this is the secret to human survival in the face of disaster, and this secret is still prevalent in war-torn areas.

As for conscience.

Let’s talk after we’ve had a full meal. Hungry people only think about eating. This is: ‘Willows drift with flowers in the wind, and Hua Tuo can’t heal the world...’

"Where is Mr. Kong?"

The next day.

Jiang Xuan got up early in the morning, preparing to talk to County Magistrate Kong about investigating Ping An Road.

"Your Majesty the Special Envoy."

Facing the inquiry, the officer guarding the Yamen stuttered: "Because there was rice for disaster relief, the county magistrate was happy last night and drank a few more drinks. He has just fallen asleep now. Now..."

"What a drunkard."

When I saw Magistrate Kong yesterday, he looked drunk.

I drank until dawn again today.

Jiang Xuan knew without asking that Mr. Kong would probably end up drunk in a wine vat like this every day.

"Who is in charge of the county government on weekdays?"

Since Magistrate Kong has been drunk all day.

It shows that the county government itself also has an operation team, which can ensure normal operation on weekdays.

"The ones inside are the county magistrate, the chief registrar, and the master who represents the county magistrate." The yamen servant is also familiar with these: "Outside the master is Mr. Xiong, and Mr. Xiong is the head hunter."

Nod.

Jiang Xuan ordered: "Ask these four people to come to the garden to meet me."

"Yes, sir."

The officer nodded and bowed and left.

Not long after.

The four chief officials of the county government arrived one after another, and looking at their positions, it was obvious that the county magistrate was with the chief clerk, while the master was standing with Xiong Baotou.

"The county magistrate is very close to the chief registrar, and County Magistrate Kong used his master to win over Mr. Xiong. Therefore, although Magistrate Kong looks dim, he actually still has control over the county government."<

/p>

Just take a look.

Jiang Xuan made a preliminary judgment.

I didn’t dare to say whether I was right or not, at least that was the case on the surface, so I said: “You are all officials in charge of Quanjiang County, and each is responsible for a certain amount of things. As for me, I came to Quanjiang firstly for disaster relief, and secondly for safety.

Come.

Let’s talk about it.

During this period, Ping An Dao raided the government treasury and distributed the stolen money and food to the disaster-stricken people in Quanjiang.

As the chief official here, how much do you know about Ping An Dao? How many members of Ping An Dao are active in Quanjiang County? Who is their person in charge? Where is their stronghold? Who have you seen on weekdays? What are you planning to do? Tell us what you know.

Tell me everything."

Silence...

The four of them looked at each other and lowered their heads.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing the reaction of the four people, Jiang Xuanle said: "Do you not know, or do you know but dare not say it, or maybe you have colluded with Ping An Dao and are members of Ping An Dao yourself?"

"Your Excellency, you are wronged."

He Xiancheng hurriedly knelt down and said: "The people of Ping An Dao act secretly and come and go without a trace. Although we have heard about it, we have never caught the real person, let alone colluded with Ping An Dao."

Jiang Xuan was noncommittal and turned to look at Xiong Captou: "What about you, Xiong Captou? I heard from the county government officer that you are in charge of foreign affairs. You are in charge of the security of the entire county. You have hundreds of officers under you. You don't know how to do it?"

I don’t know anything.”

Hear this.

The bear hunter said: "I do know some traces, and I even led people to trace them, but unfortunately they came to nothing."

"Why did you fail?" Jiang Xuan asked.

"People don't trust us, but they will take the initiative to cover up people on Ping'an Road." Xiong Captou looked helpless: "Most of our case handling system comes from civil elections and official corrections. If no one reports it to the official, we usually

It is difficult to rush to the scene immediately.

Ping An Dao has a strong appeal among the people.

If someone informed us about Ping An Road, they would even be boycotted by the neighbors.

Based on this point, whether it is ordinary people or ruffians, as long as it involves safety matters, they will keep silent. As a result, we are the last to know about many things. Several days have passed by then.

There is no value at all.”

Listen to each sentence.

Jiang Xuan hesitated: "Have you never thought about sending someone to break into their interior, or that there must be a brave man with a heavy reward, and bribe a few scoundrels to be your spies?"

Xiong Baotou immediately confessed: "I despised my duty and neglected my duty. I am not as long-term as adults."

Jiang Xuan disagreed: "You haven't thought so far, or you still have sympathy for Ping An Dao. Aren't you Ping An Dao's protective umbrella in Quanjiang?"

Hear this.

Xiong Tratou's expression changed drastically: "Sir, I..."

"Haha."
