- ¡®Dudu, dududu¡¡¯
The county government's bamboo warning whistle sounded, and the citizens couldn't help but turn around.
Then I saw a group of slaves, surrounded by a mud-stained green woolen sedan, hurrying from the direction of Yuzhenfang.
Before the sedan stopped, two hairy legs wearing wooden clogs and covered with yellow mud were exposed from the curtain of the sedan.
Second Master Zhao finally arrived.
He was wearing an official robe that was also stained with mud and the original color could no longer be seen clearly. He also had a bamboo hat on his head. He had obviously just come off the embankment.
¡°Master, boots, boots!¡± Fang Wen flashed out and chased after Zhao Shouzheng with his official boots.
The situation was urgent, but Zhao Shouzheng didn't bother to put on his boots. He simply threw off his two clogs, ran barefoot to the south of the bridge, and bowed deeply to the noisy crowd.
"I am Zhao Shouzheng, the magistrate of Kunshan County. All elders, listen to me!"
"The great master is here!"
The people who were making trouble suddenly calmed down, and many people secretly hid the debris they were about to throw behind them. Just like the students who were having a fight, they saw the awe-inspiring head teacher.
"The lord is here, stop, stop." The people on the bridge shouted to the people under the bridge, and people stopped making noise one after another. Even the children stopped making noises and jumped away.
"" Zhao Shouzheng was also surprised when he saw this, thinking to himself: Where did I get such a high prestige?
This is unscientific
"Don't blame me, parents. We took action because we were angry with those parents who slandered us."
"Yes, they burned the granary and spread rumors that half of the food brought by the lord is rice and sand!" The citizens hurriedly explained with indignation: "Fortunately, your master and President Liu came to clarify, otherwise I would have been fooled by them. No!"
"That's right, our life in Kunshan is already miserable enough, and they want to stab us in the back! Don't we deserve to die?!"
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
"Okay, okay, please be patient for a moment." Zhao Shouzheng waved his hands, gesturing for everyone to give way: "Everyone's mood is understandable, but don't be impulsive. Originally, we were being reasonable, but there will be trouble. What makes sense has become unreasonable.¡±
The people nodded one after another. You have high prestige and a big nose. Everything you say is right.
Zhao Shouzheng walked through the passage given by the crowd.
¡°Looking at the mud spots on the county master¡¯s face, beard, and body, the citizens were moved to tears.
Today they finally know what the ¡®Qingtian Parent Official¡¯ is.
That is not just an empty title, but more like a real parent, holding up a blue sky for the people of Kunshan.
The citizens lowered their heads in emotion, only to see the bloody stains on their old parents¡¯ bare feet worn out by clogs
The common people with shallow eyes immediately started sobbing.
Zhao Shouzheng looked down at his feet and said with a smile: "You guys are laughing, I have never worn clogs before, I just need to wear them a few more times."
"Old parents" The citizens burst into tears even more.
??~~
While talking, Zhao Shouzheng arrived at the Banshan Bridge and took a look at the pier under the bridge.
He felt very distressed when he saw the mess on the ground and rice scattered everywhere.
"Who did this? They actually wasted so much food!" Mr. Zhao immediately lowered his face and shouted: "Do you know how many people in this county are still hungry?!"
Zhao Shouzheng was really angry. Although he gave the embankment workers two meals a day, he never withheld them. But most people are not willing to finish it themselves, and always keep half of it and take it home at night to feed the whole family.
After he asked the following people, he found out that after the work-for-relief program, women, children, the elderly, and people who have lost the ability to work must do light work in exchange for food rations.
¡°But the county¡¯s food supply is limited, so we can only reduce the supply by half to ensure that no one will starve to death.
Mr. Zhao is very heartbroken, but there is a food shortage in Kunshan right now, and even if you have money, you can't buy extra food. Xu Wei was forced to play "singing the sand", and Zhao Shouzheng could only do nothing.
So when he saw someone mistreating food like this, the good-tempered Mr. Zhao couldn't help but get angry.
"It's them!" The citizens pointed at the Xumen gentry swimming in the river.
"The spies took the grain and made a fuss! Is that a grain inspection? They just deliberately caused trouble!" In the famine years, food is life! The people were naturally furious and wanted to curse them with the most unpleasant words and even throw them into the water!
"Oh, what a sin." Zhao Shouzheng groaned, slapped the railing, and shouted: "Inspector Zheng!"
"The humble post is here!" Zheng Qian hurriedly saidPull yourself together and respond to save your image in front of your elders.
"Catch those guys up and send them back to the Yamen Shaolao to show them to the public!" Mr. Zhao ordered in a deep voice.
¡°It¡¯s an order!¡± Zheng Qian exaggeratedly moved his legs together, turned around and motioned for his subordinates to quickly follow the instructions.
The archers used the nets used to catch debris from the pier to fish out the drowned dogs one by one, then tied their hands behind their backs and strung them together before taking them away.
Naturally, the drowned dogs were greeted by the general public and received countless spits, punches and kicks
The gentry of Xumen are wronged.
They never expected that they would be punished for "wasting food".
Yaoshou, we only have so little food. How much can they bring out?
How many taels of silver can be spent on everyone?
But no one dared to protest, for fear that if they said one more word, they would be beaten again
??~~
After dealing with the Xu clan gentry, Zhao Shouzheng shouted to the people gathered at Banshan Bridge:
"Don't worry about food. Starting in three days, all food stores will reopen, and there will be no price limit! Whatever the price is in Suzhou City, we will pay it!"
"That's great! Thank you, parents!" The citizens cheered.
"And!" Zhao Shouzheng raised his hand and continued to deliver the gift packages: "As for what to do in these three days? I have the final say and will distribute ten kilograms of rice to every household in the county. Is it enough for everyone? "
"That's enough! That's enough! My old parents are really the reborn parents of us Kunshan people!"
Excited citizens flocked to Zhao Shouzheng one after another. If the guards hadn't tried their best to block him, they would have had to lift Mr. Zhao high and toss him several times to enjoy the pleasure.
"Okay, everyone, go back and let your chiefs come over to get the food." Zhao Shouzheng was almost pushed off the bridge just now, and he shouted in panic: "Stop gathering anymore, the bridge is going to collapse!"
The people of Kunshan were angry, got benefits, and saw hope. They were naturally docile like a group of little sheep, kowtowed to the big man one after another, and soon dispersed.
Seeing the empty Mr. Zhao, he breathed a long sigh of relief. It can be regarded as the first crisis management since becoming an official.
And this time, there is no script, it all depends on him improvising.
Zhao Hao stood up, gave a thumbs up towards the bridge, and showed a pleased smile.
The hardships of these half months were finally not in vain. The old father has finally matured
Zhao Shouzheng also gave a thumbs up to Zhao Hao. This time he finally did not disappoint his son.
