Farmer’s Little Girl
Chapter 225: Kindness
Chapter 225 Kindness
Mianzhou County is governed by Brazil, where a large number of officials and squires and tyrants are gathering there at this time. By the time Master Bai arrives, it is already evening.
He didn't go to live in the inn, but went to find a friend and stayed at his friend's house.
Landlord’s friends are very likely to be the landlord’s. As a local landlord, the other party’s information is much better than that of Master Bai who rushed over from Qili Village.
He was very happy. Le Haha asked the people to prepare wine and good food, and said to Master Bai: "This time I don’t know if it’s luck from God, or someone deliberately doing it, but we are all beneficiaries and deserve to be celebrated. Fan, come, we won’t be drunk tonight."
Master Bai had a drink with him, and asked, "How did Master Wei think of coming to our Mianzhou?"
Mianzhu is not the main disaster area. He is so busy in disaster relief, he shouldn't come to them.
The friend drank a drink and laughed: "It was said that Master Wei went out for disaster relief, and met two victims squatting on the side of the road talking about Mianzhou. They went out from Mianzhou. Master Wei heard that there are also there. Many people were affected and decided to come over temporarily."
He lowered his voice and laughed: "But I always think this is too coincidental. Maybe it's a deliberate action."
Master Bai first thought of Fu County Order, but he dared not say, "I don't know who it is?"
"Who knows? Maybe he is a man with a heart for the people. Anyway, he is not our governor." My friend leaned on a chair. He was still more used to sitting cross-legged. Bai Li was not an outsider, so he sat up cross-legged and said. "He has just arrived in the second year. If there is no accident, I am afraid that he will have to stay here for four years. You don’t know. As soon as the flood broke out, he interviewed us. Several companies in Brazil have successively donated several times. Yes, you need more donations at one time than one donation."
He was full of resentment when he said this, and said: "I have donated five times to this day."
Master Bai was startled, "So much?"
"Our master governor is still too small. We have previously jointly suggested that he should write a letter for tax relief. I dare not say that it is free, at least pay less. Guess what?"
Master Bai shook his head.
"He opened his eyes and said nonsense, saying that the situation in Mianzhou is good and that we should not compete with the people in other states and counties. After all, the money and food are nothing to us, but it is a life-saving thing for the victims of the external disaster. , Huh, he looks good, but he said that we are wicked." The friend said: "Yes, these money and food will not hurt us people, but our clan is here for generations, who is it? No poor relatives?"
"The disaster in Mianzhou this time is no more serious than the outside. Except for the deaths and injuries, most people's houses have been preserved, but what matters is that the crops in the fields have not been preserved." He said: "If the tax is reduced or exempted, everyone tightens up. The trousers belt has passed this year, but if he doesn’t reduce it, the tax can be crushed to death. Originally, the flood did not die, but died in a man-made disaster. They wanted to push Mianzhou into a desperate situation."
"Hey, it's not as serious as you said. At this time, the court is staring at Jiannan Dao. He dared to kill the people like this. We haven't moved, the court won't let him go."
"Humph!"
"Then this matter is settled?"
"Not yet, Master Wei just arrived in Brazil yesterday. I went to inspect with others today. I may go to another county to see the situation tomorrow. Are you with me?"
Master Bai always felt that Master Wei came too easy, and wanted to follow the situation to see the situation, so he nodded.
The friend laughed and said, "Then we will follow along together. By the way, how is your situation in Luojiang County?"
"I heard you say that, in terms of the disaster, our place is more serious than yours. However, Fu Xianling is willing to use his heart, not only to comfort the refugees who have entered the city, but also the people whose houses collapsed are also subsidized, and the people's hearts are down. It's more aligned and more optimistic than you here."
The friend was curious, "How much food did you donate?"
"Not much, only two times. The first time I gave it to the victims. I only donated three patens. The second time I donated twelve paties. Basically, they were distributed to the worst-hit villages in Qili and Dali villages. Villagers."
Zuo Yanming was even more surprised, "Isn’t it, your county magistrate didn’t stop it at all?"
Master Bai smiled and shook his head.
Zuo Yanming exclaimed, "No, I remember your magistrate Fu also loves money, cough cough, although it won’t squeeze the people, it’s unreasonable that this kind of thing is not left behind."
Master Bai pointedly said: "Our Fu County Commander has high ambitions and wants to go further."
Zuo Yanming understood. His eyes lit up, he leaned over and lowered his voice and asked, "Say, is it him?"
Master Bai said: "Don't talk nonsense about things without evidence."
"Let’s do it, don’t say it, don’t say it."
The two drank wine for half a night, and rushed to meet at the gate of the city the next morning.
There are a lot of people accompanying them. After all, tax exemption is a big deal, especially if the family is prosperous, or the squire with many slaves.
Master Bai is not very famous in Mianzhou, mainly because he chose to live in the deep mountains and old forests, and his reputation is not obvious, so he joined in halfway, and not many people noticed.
But strangely, Lord Wei saw him at a glance and called him to his side to speak, "Are you Bai Li?"
Bai Li was taken aback and bowed a little nervously, "It's Bai, I don't know what the lord has ordered."
Master Wei laughed and said: "The order is not enough. I heard the magistrate Fu mentioned you, saying that you are a well-known and good person in Luojiang County, so I want to see you."
Master Wei smiled and asked: "I heard of this disaster. Not only did you fully cover the rent of the tenants below, but you also donated a lot of money and food to the people affected by the disaster?"
Bai Li heaved a sigh of relief, bowed his head and replied, "This is what Bai should do. Bai lives in Luojiang, and he travels in and out of neighbors. You can't just watch them being indifferent because of the disaster? It's just a little effort. That’s all, it’s just a drop in the bucket. If you want to help them, you might have to take the action of the magistrate Fu, the governor and your lord."
Master Wei smiled and said: "Relax, if the situation in Luojiang County is really as you have said, the court will not ignore it. This time I come to Jiannan Road to lead the relief work. The victims will not settle well every day. He will not return to the court for a day."
Everyone heard the words and saluteed together, "Adults are blue, and saints are kind."
"Sages are very kind..." Wei Zhi said this meaningfully.
Wei Zhi didn't let Bai Li go down, but let him go with him. Almost a month has passed since the disaster, and the house has basically been cleaned up, and there is nothing left to see.
Wei Zhi mainly looks at the situation in the ground, and unless someone deliberately takes him to see the good-conditioning field, he cannot be faked.
