Chapter 776 Famine
Lu Zhaopeng was so courageous that he dared to run around Zishui County even though he knew someone was arresting him outside.

outside the city.

some where.

midnight.

Lu Zhaopeng and Lao Liu had already handed over the food, guns and ammunition.

"Zhao Peng, our boss said that if you need anything in the future, just contact me directly. I will help anyone who can." Lao Liu conveyed Zhou Qiang's goodwill.

"Thank you, Brother Six." Lu Zhaopeng bowed solemnly.

"You're welcome." Lao Liu took the people away.

Tailor Han came out of the darkness.

"Zhaopeng, are you done?"

"It's done, it went smoothly. Uncle Zhou didn't ask any more questions." Lu Zhaopeng was very grateful to Zhou Qiang.

"It seems that County Magistrate Zhou is also a sensible person."

"Uncle Zhou is not an ordinary person. I just heard from Brother Six that Uncle Zhou can make his own ammunition. He can have as much ammunition as he wants, and the price is very cheap."

"What? Make it yourself?" Tailor Han was shocked.

"That's right. Old Han, we have to find a way to make it ourselves."

"If we make it ourselves, we don't have the technology." Tailor Han said the key point, they don't have the technology.

"Brother Six said he could give us technology."

"What? That sixth man? How dare he give me skills?" Tailor Han's eyes widened.

"Of course it's not Brother Six's intention, it must be Uncle Zhou's intention." Lu Zhaopeng smiled.

"This is an unexpected surprise!"

"Yeah, Uncle Zhou, I can't understand it more and more."

Tian Fuxian was captured by Zhou Qiang's people.

Yue Weishan had to save him.

Otherwise, your subordinates’ hearts will be chilled.

In addition, Tian Fuxian also contributed a lot to Da Yang. For Da Yang's sake, Yue Weishan also had to save Tian Fuxian.

Zhou house.

Yue Weishan had to come again.

"Brother Zhou, Tian Fuxian is helping me, do you think you can show your favor and let him go?"

"It's late." Zhou Qiang gave two words.

"What's too late?"

"Tian Fuxian has been sentenced and sent to prison." Zhou Qiang was very fast in doing things here.Tian Fuxian was arrested on the same day and sentenced to prison for reform through labor.

"What? So fast?" Yue Weishan was shocked.

"Brother Yue, our Zishui County is very efficient, which is obvious to all."

Yue Weishan took a deep breath and suppressed his anger, "Brother Zhou, can you let Tian Fuxian go?"

"No." Zhou Qiang refused simply.

"Why is this?"

"How can criminals be released at will?"

Yue Weishan left, full of anger.

Not giving face, Zhou Qiang is too disrespectful.

But Yue Weishan had nothing to do with Zhou Qiang.

Bailu Village.

Today, Tian Xiaoe and several of Zhou Qiang's wives and concubines arrived.Bai Xiaowu's daughter-in-law, Leng Qiushui, and Heiwa's daughter-in-law also came.Zhou Qiang didn't come.

The little widow's house.

"Sister Zhang, your man has been away for more than a year, and you can't help it by guarding like this." Why did Tian Xiao'e and the others come?

Tian Xiaoe's Women's Self-Rescue Association specializes in rescuing women in need.

In this era, women were also required to remain widowed.

It is not advisable for a young widow in her twenties to stay alive for the rest of her life.

Therefore, Tian Xiaoe's self-help club is encouraging young widows to remarry.

"Sister Xiao'e, what should I do if I don't stay? My parents don't agree with me getting married again." Little widow Zhang didn't want to be a widow.It's just this worldly concept that forced her to abide by it.

"Let's talk to your parents. This old concept needs to be changed." Tian Xiao'e and the others didn't delay, and went directly to the parents of little widow Zhang.

"Uncle, aunt, this is it." Tian Xiao'e explained her purpose.

"No! Absolutely not!" The middle-aged man and woman who originally respected Tian Xiao'e for Zhou Qiang's sake suddenly turned their faces, "You all leave!"

Tian Xiaoe and the others were kicked out.

"Presumptuous!" Tian Xiao'e and the others also brought guards.

"Dare you be rude to Mrs. Zhou?" Several guards came forward, called the middle-aged man and woman aside, and scolded them, "Do you agree to what Mrs. Zhou said?"

"I agree, I agree, within ten days, I will find a good family for my daughter and marry her." The middle-aged man and woman were forced to agree.

Tian Xiaoe and the others talked nicely, but the middle-aged man and woman refused to listen. Now they were scolded by the guards before they agreed honestly.

Leave Zhang Xiaowidow’s house.

Tian Xiaoe and others went to Mr. Leng's medicine hall.

Bai Xiaowen and Leng Qiuyue are busy here.

Seeing Tian Xiao'e and a group of women coming, Bai Xiaowen couldn't help but glance at her and immediately left with a blushing face.

In the TV series, Bai Xiaowen was seduced by Tian Xiao'e and later became a beggar.

Now Bai Xiaowen can be regarded as a 'little gentleman'. He knows etiquette, justice and shame, and dare not be rude.

"Mrs. Zhou, Qiushui." Leng Qiuyue greeted hurriedly and warmly.

After Leng Qiuyue married Bai Xiaowen, her life was considered happy.

Giving birth to children, working in the medicine hall, and serving my parents-in-law, my life was quite fulfilling.

"Qiuyue, you should also join our Women's Self-Help Association. None of us have medical skills, so you can help." Tian Xiao'e came to the medicine hall to expand her subordinates.

"Mrs. Zhou, I'm afraid I don't have time." Leng Qiuyue is more conservative and doesn't want to do anything public.

"Sister, you'd better take part, I'm already taking part. If you have something to do, be busy, and when you have nothing to do, let's help women in need together." Leng Qiushui also persuaded her.

There was no point in trying to persuade her, Leng Qiuyue just didn't want to show up.

More than ten days later.

Widow Zhang remarried happily.

The other party was also married for the second time, and his wife died due to dystocia.

Neither of them disliked the other.

The days after marriage were pretty good.

They honor both parents together.

Both families are doing well.

As the news spread, everyone became less repulsive to women remarrying.

Many older widows also have ideas.

The seeds of women's remarriage have been planted and are just waiting to sprout and grow.

Any change in old concepts is not achieved overnight and requires subtle changes.

For a long time, Tian Xiaoe and the others walked around in various villages in Bailuyuan.

Encourage one young widow after another to remarry.

After the little widow remarried, everyone tasted the benefits.

The concept of women being widowed is no longer so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Women remarrying is a problem.

Other problems, such as girls' foot binding, girls' inability to go to school, patriarchy, etc., Tian Xiaoe and the others are also changing little by little.

Tian Xiaoe and others have become representatives of women in the new era.

Wherever they passed, women welcomed them warmly.

Zishui County.

Zhou Qiang came to the county government office.

Usually Zhou Qiang won't come if nothing happens.

This time Zhou Qiang came, obviously something happened, and it was a big deal.

A relatively large conference room.

Many people from the Academy of Counselors are there.

Yue Weishan also came.

Zhou Qiang said, "Tell me about the current situation."

"Water shortage has been going on for almost three years." Famine never happens all at once.The lack of rain and water is accumulated.

"There has been a shortage of rainwater in recent years."

"The water shortage is widespread."

"If there is a place, we have already started to flee."

Zhou Qiang came here this time to deal with the famine. "Tell me what to do?"

"County Magistrate, it's time to open warehouses to release grain for disaster relief."

"Yes, County Magistrate, if we don't release food, I'm afraid someone will starve to death."

Zhou Qiang nodded, looked at Yue Weishan, and asked, "Brother Yue, what do you think?"

"I don't have any objection to opening a warehouse to put grain in it." Yue Weishan was very self-aware and did not express his opinions randomly.He knew that even if he said it, it was useless.

"In that case, let's open a warehouse to release grain. Does your Council of Advisors have a disaster relief charter?" Zhou Qiang asked.

"Yes, in order to prevent someone from claiming food while they have food, we have prepared a way to provide relief through work." The Counselor Academy has been planning for a long time for disaster relief.There are many measures to ensure smooth disaster relief.

In the TV series, disaster relief is hosted by Mr. Zhu. "The affected area is too large, and we don't have much food in stock. Where can we buy food from outside?" Zhou Qiang continued to ask.

"We have sent people to more than ten surrounding places. This famine is not limited to us. There are also famines in the surrounding areas. It is difficult to buy food."

"If it's difficult to get close, go further. No matter how difficult it is, you must buy food." Zhou Qiang decided.

"Yes!" Many people went to purchase food in the distance.

Zhou Qiang started active preparations here.

Famine occurs.

Zishui County first began to provide disaster relief.

Other nearby counties also responded.

However, there is not much surplus food in other counties.

It’s hard to say how long disaster relief can last.

The fugitive appears.

Most of them come to Zishui County.

Because everyone knows that Zishui County has a good county magistrate and there are more grain reserves here.

Bailu Village.

When it was time to harvest autumn grain here, I didn't receive it.

The grain has dried to death in the ground.

It's not that we don't go to the river to get water to irrigate the fields, but it's because there is no water in the river.

Drought is not a one-year thing, it lasts for several years.

It was because of the drought for several years that all the water in the fields and rivers was used up. The little water left was only enough for drinking, not enough to irrigate the fields.

ancestral hall.

Bai Jiaxuan and several clan elders were discussing what to do.

"I heard that the county has organized disaster relief." An elder said.

"Yes, County Magistrate Zhou is a good county magistrate. In previous years, no one would have provided disaster relief so early."

"I'm afraid that the relief food will be gone within a few days."

"Chief, what should we do? Every household doesn't have much food left."

"Beat the gods and get water!" Bai Jiaxuan is going to make a big show.

Lu Zilin's house.

Lu Zilin was constantly putting his hands into the pot of boiling water.

It was just too hot. Lu Zilin only dared to put it in, but didn't dare to put it in.

The reason why Lu Zilin did this was to "defeat the gods and get water."

What's going on with cutting down the gods to get water?
It is a grand folk activity to achieve the purpose of praying for rain through a series of steps.

In this process, if you want to be "possessed by the gods", you have to grasp the red-hot iron bumps with your hands, so as not to be afraid of being burned.

Lu Zilin wanted to be the person possessed by this god.

Therefore, you are not afraid of being hot during exercise.

this day.

Praying for rain begins.

Mr. Zhu stopped Bai Jiaxuan and prevented him from getting water.

Because Mr. Zhu knows that this is useless.

But doesn’t Bai Jiaxuan know?

Bai Jiaxuan also knew it was useless.

But this is a breath of fresh air in the hearts of the people.

By doing this activity, everyone will have something to look forward to and hope to survive.

During the event, Lu Zilin made the first move.

He scratched at the hot red iron bumps.

However, Lu Zilin couldn't help it. He couldn't bear the pain and gave up.

Enter Bai Jiaxuan, Bai Jiaxuan held back.

Bai Jiaxuan is not afraid of pain. He knows that if he can't bear it, he is not worthy of being the leader of the clan.

Bai Jiaxuan's bones are still much harder than Lu Zilin's.

Lu Zilin's cowardly look once again highlighted Bai Jiaxuan's extraordinary appearance.

The whole ceremony is over.

The momentum was so great that Bai Jiaxuan was injured.

But still no rain.

However, it is not without some effect, and everyone is looking forward to it.

We have to live day by day.

Many families in Bailu Village have run out of food rations. Soon they will starve and have to flee.

Fortunately, someone from the county came.

"The food is here!"

Zhou Qiang sent someone.

I brought a lot of food with me.

During the years when Zhou Qiang was the county magistrate, food in Zishui County has been sold out.

Under such circumstances, how could Zhou Qiang not save food?
The granaries in Zishui County are full.

Zishui County has a lot of not only grain, but also bacon and various shelf-stable foods.

Now that we are in a famine year, the food in the villages of Zishui County is enough to feed the entire county for a year.

However, the victims are not just from one county.

The victims of the disaster in surrounding counties fled to Zishui County. How could Zhou Qiang let them starve to death?

But in this way, Zishui County's grain reserves are not enough to supply people in several surrounding counties.

Therefore, Zhou Qiang asked people to rush to other places to buy food.

"County Magistrate Zhou knew that Bailu Village was running out of food, so he sent someone to deliver food."

"Thank you, County Magistrate Zhou!"

"County Magistrate Zhou Renyi!"

Bai Jiaxuan was invited to build a porridge shed together.

In this case, it is impossible to feed everyone, just hang their lives.

Under normal circumstances, in years of famine, merchants selling grain will take the opportunity to increase prices, making it difficult for the country to make money.

However, this situation did not occur in Zishui County.

Or, as soon as this happened, Zhou Qiang sent someone to ransack the house.

Natural and man-made disasters often occur together.

But in Zishui County, Zhou Qiang does not allow anyone to make trouble.

The work efficiency in Zishui County was too fast. Just when the merchants wanted to hoard, their shops were closed down.

Someone went to complain, but to no avail.

In the TV series, Yue Weishan is still arresting Lu Zhaopeng during this famine, and doesn't care about the lives of ordinary people at all.

Now, Yue Weishan is also catching Lu Zhaopeng.

Moreover, just like in the TV series, Lu Zhaopeng was actually captured.

Lu Zhaopeng was also careless.

Because of the famine, Lu Zhaopeng appeared frequently.

Someone saw Lu Zhaopeng and reported to Yue Weishan. (Because there was a reward, the common people were jealous of the reward and sold Lu Zhaopeng.)
Zhou house.

"Boss, Lu Zhaopeng was arrested by Yue Weishan?" Lao Liu learned the news immediately.

"What? Lu Zhaopeng was arrested? How did you do it, so carelessly?" Zhou Qiang frowned.

"It's also caused by famine. Lu Zhaopeng appears frequently recently and is seen by the people. Boss, can we save him?"

"Don't worry, let this kid suffer and it will help him remember something." Zhou Qiang was busy with disaster relief and didn't want to worry about Lu Zhaopeng for the time being.

Yue Weishan there.

After Yue Weishan caught Lu Zhaopeng, he sent people to keep an eye on Lao Liu and the others.

Yue Weishan has stayed in Zishui County for a long time and knows that Zhou Qiang takes good care of Lu Zhaopeng and others.

This time, after catching Lu Zhaopeng, the first thing Yue Weishan thought was, would Zhou Qiang send someone to rescue him?
If Zhou Qiang sends someone to rescue Lu Zhaopeng, then Zhou Qiang will be finished.

Therefore, Yue Weishan set a trap to catch the people sent by Zhou Qiang.

However, Yue Weishan miscalculated.

He deliberately leaked the news to let Zhou Qiang know, but Zhou Qiang was indifferent and did not take any action.

"Don't you think Zhou Qiang wants to save Lu Zhaopeng?" Yue Weishan hoped to trap Zhou Qiang to death this time, but Zhou Qiang did not jump into the trap.

Zhou house.

"Boss, Yue Weishan sent people to watch outside, and he was over there in the cell, setting a trap." What Yue Weishan did was soon known to Lao Liu.

Yue Weishan has no use for secrets.

"Oh? Is Yue Weishan trying to deal with me?" Zhou Qiang was unhappy.

"Master, how about I kill Yue Weishan?" Lao Liu was also furious.

"It would be too easy to kill him directly. Since Yue Weishan wants to trick me, let's trick him too."

"How to cheat?"

"Fabricated evidence to say that Yue Weishan and Lu Zhaopeng are in the same group."
