Chapter 24
Lin Mo gave the food to the little beggar because Lin Mo knew that in the eyes of these people, survival was probably the most important thing, and the second was to express that he had no malice.Seeing that the little beggar picked up the food, his fear of himself became lighter, so he repeated what he said just now.
The little beggar stopped shaking, opened the package of dim sum, took one and ate it, his hands were also very dirty, and left a fingerprint on the snow-white dim sum, but the little beggar didn't pay attention to those things, and chewed vigorously , and seemed reluctant to swallow it.
After taking a bite, the little beggar first glanced at the people around him, then rewrapped the snack, hugged it tightly in his arms, then looked at Lin Mo and said, "Master, my name is Xiao Shitou. Come get water here."
Lin Mo frowned and said, "I came from upstream, and there is no one nearby, so I don't have to travel so far to fetch water!"
The little beggar seemed to be frightened by Lin Mo's frown, and said in a trembling voice: "If you go back to the old man, the old man is having a feast on it! The villain dare not... dare not fight on the top Seeing Lin Mo's lifeless look, Shui continued, "Although this side is farther away, it doesn't matter if you walk a few more steps."
Speaking of this, the little beggar smiled, showing a little yellow teeth.
Lin Mo knew that it was natural for those people to drive these people away in order not to disturb the fun of the banquet, but he still felt that it was too much.
Lin Mo helped the little beggar and asked, "Where is your lord? Why did you come out alone?"
Seeing Lin Mo bowing down to help the beggar, Eunuch Wei hurried forward, trying to help him up before Lin Mo did. Lin Mo waved his hand and directly helped the little beggar up.
When Lin Mo said this, it was like puncturing the little beggar's tears.
"My father is sick and can't move. The family has no money and can't afford medicine. I picked up a bone today and want to make soup for my father."
The little beggar was sobbing and talking, tears streaked across his face, revealing the yellowish skin underneath.
Lin Mo looked at the little beggar standing beside him, reached out and patted his head lightly, and said, "Take me to see your father, please? I'll find a doctor for your father!"
When I arrived at the little beggar's house, I realized what a real house was like, or it wasn't even the four walls. Half of the walls collapsed, and the whistling cold wind was extremely cold.The ground was covered with straw, and an equally thin and almost out-of-shape person was lying on the pile of straw, covered with a quilt that was so torn that blackened cotton wool was exposed.
The man's face was yellow, his cheekbones were high and protruding, and his eyes were extraordinarily big, which made people a little scary, but there was no spirit in those too big eyes.
Later, when I saw Lin Mo and his party, I was a little angry. When I saw Lin Mo and his party coming in, the thin and shapeless man tried to stand up, but he didn't have the strength to stand up at all.
Seeing that his father was about to move, Xiaoshi knelt directly on the straw, and then half-supported his father, letting his upper body sit up, but his strength was weak and he couldn't hold it up. Lin Mo couldn't bear the weight of his father. There was also a clever man in the guard who helped Xiao Shitou lift his father up.
Seeing his father, Xiao Shitou showed his original restraint and became talkative, "Father, father, look, the master gave us something to eat!" Then he took out the slightly crushed snacks from his arms.
Seeing these snacks, Xiao Shitou's father relaxed a little, at least the person who came was not malicious, and the two of them, the old one and the young one, had nothing to be calculated by these young masters. I am afraid that I will not be able to pay back the work I have done for several lifetimes.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shitou's father bowed to Lin Mo and said, "Thank you for the reward, Master! Shitou, thank you, Master!"
Little Shitou was a little confused, but still followed his father and said: "Thank you, master, for the reward!" After saying that, he wanted to salute, but was stopped by the guards, father and son.
Lin Mo glanced around and asked: "It's just a small thought, can I ask the old man's background, why is he so poor?"
Seeing being blocked by Lin Mo's men, Xiao Shitou's father didn't insist on saluting. Hearing Lin Mo's words, he said, "I was originally from Shandong, but I fled here after fleeing famine. I originally wanted to join my relatives in the capital. , but I didn’t expect that my relatives moved to Jiangnan a long time ago, and all their savings and silver were used up, and my mother-in-law fell ill and left early.”
Shandong?Lin Mo thought he was a beggar in the capital, but he didn't expect that he escaped from other places to come here. He was a little surprised and asked, "Why did the old man leave his hometown? If he was at home, he wouldn't be in such a situation, right? "Usually there are many ethnic groups in my hometown. Although they don't take care of them too much, they have some support.Leaving his hometown, he naturally survived the danger.
Xiao Shitou's father smiled wryly and said, "If I can not leave my hometown, I don't want to, but my house is already infested with insects, and all the food in the field has been eaten up. If I stay in my hometown, there is no way out!"
"What!" Eunuch Wei exclaimed, seeing that Lin Mo's face was also dark, he stopped talking.
It's just the old man's words, but it set off a huge wave in the hearts of everyone.
Recently, I haven't seen anyone report anything about the pest plague in Shandong, not to mention Lin Mo, even Eunuch Wei, who is in charge of the East Factory, doesn't know that such a big thing happened in Shandong.
Seeing that Eunuch Wei had already called the doctor, Lin Mo directly called Eunuch Wei out.
"Is there any insect plague in the East Factory?" Lin Mo asked in a low voice, but no matter how low the voice was, the anger would make Eunuch Wei dizzy, and Eunuch Wei had never seen his majesty like this before. Anxious look.
Eunuch Wei knew in his heart that there might really be something wrong in Shandong, but he still shook his head and said, "There is no news about the insect plague."
Lin Mo walked around outside the house for a few times, but he couldn't bear it any longer, so he turned to Xiao Shitou's father and said, "How much do you know about insect plagues?"
Before Xiao Shitou's father could thank Lin Mo for giving them food, Lin Mo invited a doctor again, saying that he would cure his illness. At this time, he only regarded him as a benefactor, so naturally he knew everything he could say!
"The plague of insects covered the sky and the sun. From a distance, the ground and the sky were covered in darkness, like dark clouds. When I left, the insects had already plagued three counties. It's been two or three months, and I don't know what the situation is now."
"Which three counties are those three counties?" Eunuch Wei asked in a sharp voice.
"Probably Yuncheng, Yidu, Shen County..."
"Don't those officials care about it?" Lin Mo asked. Hearing this, Xiao Shitou's father became angry: "Don't worry, why don't you care? Every day I beat gongs and drums to worship all Bodhisattvas, but Bodhisattvas don't bless you. God doesn't open his eyes. The drought is getting worse day by day, and the number of bugs is getting more and more day by day.”
"Aside from praying to gods and worshiping Buddha, don't those county magistrates do anything? Just praying for survival and worshiping Buddha??" Eunuch Wei was also very surprised.
Little Shitou's father sneered and said, "He also asked people to pay money for the treatment of insects from door to door!" Then he wiped his tears, "If it weren't for the fact that we couldn't survive, how could Shitou and I risk our lives in a foreign land to join our relatives? I can't survive."
Speaking of this, Xiaoshitou's father began to cry: "There was a severe drought last autumn. After paying the tax, the family had no food left. It was hard for the whole family to escape the winter. I hoped that the next year would be a bumper harvest. How could I know that since the beginning of spring Then there was no rain, and before the rain came, the locusts came."
Speaking of the small stones here, his father shouted heart-piercingly: "The young crops in the field were raised by me and my mother-in-law digging silt from the river. I went to fetch water from a big river more than ten miles away. My mother-in-law and I were in poor health and couldn’t walk that far. So we picked up mud from the small river on the edge of the field and raised a crop of crops, thinking about waiting for a spring rain. The house will be fine, I can let the mother-in-law rest, and I can also make the stone full, and let him grow some flesh, but what is waiting is not spring rain, but locusts!!!”
"It's just a little bit of green shoots that have just sprouted, only one finger long, and they took a lot of effort to raise, but within a long time, they were all gone, and even the roots were eaten by those bugs! There is no way, there is really no way! Everything! No more, no more..."
Xiao Shitou was young, so he didn't know what his father was talking about, but when he saw his father crying, he started to cry too.
Seeing that Xiao Shitou's father was so excited, the doctor wiped his eyes, handed the recipe to a guard, and comforted him: "Whether it's a good day or not, a good day is yet to come."
In a calamity year, human life is cheaper than mud, and I can only comfort myself that Jitai is coming. What else can I do besides scolding God? ?
The doctor looked at Xiao Shitou's father and said: "They are all miserable people, don't pay the consultation fee, take care of the child and live a good life, good days are coming!"
Eunuch Wei signaled a guard to take the doctor out, and the consultation fee will be paid naturally.
Lin Mo punched the wall directly. The wall was very rough, and Lin Mo's whole hand was red with a single stroke.
Eunuch Wei looked at Lin Mo's red hands with distress, and went out to ask the doctor for ointment.
Lin Mo looked at the man who was still half-sitting on the straw, and Xiao Shitou's father was wiping tears for Xiao Shitou, and said to Xiao Shitou, "Father, in this life, I don't ask for anything, I just hope you can live well."
Xiao Shitou's father suddenly asked Xiao Shitou to help him up, and seeing Lin Mo looking at him, he said, "Master, I know that you were born into a wealthy family and you have a good heart, otherwise you wouldn't give Xiao Shitou food, and you would treat me as a doctor. It's just that I'm almost half a foot in the coffin, and I don't have many good days to live. I beg you, can give Xiao Shitou a bite of food, give him a bite of food, and let him live in peace Just go down. Please, my lord! Please!"
Seeing that Xiao Shitou's father seemed to be planning to kneel down for him, Lin Mo stepped forward to support him and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of him, and you don't want to leave Xiao Shitou alone and let him die alone. loved ones."
============================================
Lin Mo walked on the street with Eunuch Wei and the guards. It was getting late, and the setting sun dyed the whole street golden. I don't know, somewhere, there are people in hell.
Here the gold leaves are used as tiles, and fine wine is poured into the river. Over there, countless wives and families are broken up, begging to be sold into slavery, only wishing to live, and living is also a wish...
Lin Mo ordered Eunuch Wei to investigate things in Shandong. After thinking about it, Lin Mo still came to Su Changfeng's mansion.
Su Changfeng's mansion was granted by the imperial court, naturally dignified and solemn, but when Lin Mo entered the mansion, he found that the mansion was also very empty, probably because of the lack of popularity.
The butler led Lin Mo into the living room, served a pot of good tea, and disappeared.Lin Mo told Eunuch Wei to settle the father and son.It was agreed that after Eunuch Wei finished his work, he would meet at Su Shoufu's mansion, so he was not by Lin Mo's side.
Lin Mo was also a little bored in the living room, and when he thought of what the two father and son said, he felt very angry.In order to calm himself down, he looked around the living room, trying to find something to divert his attention.
It's just that there is nothing in the living room, but a painting hanging on the wall caught Lin Mo's attention. It was a picture of ink bamboo.Bamboo is one of the four gentlemen. It is quite normal for Su Changfeng to have a picture of bamboo here, but the poem inscribed on the painting is not about bamboo, but the last two lines of Yu Gong's chant: " I'm not afraid of being smashed to pieces, and I want to stay innocent in the world."
Lin Mo's heart sank inexplicably, and he put those inexplicable thoughts aside.
When Su Changfeng came in, he saw Lin Mo standing in front of the picture, seemingly in deep thought.
The candlelight in the room was very bright, and one could clearly see the expression on His Majesty's face.
Su Changfeng coughed lightly, and when Lin Mo turned around, he bowed and saluted.
Lin Mo looked at Su Changfeng standing in front of him, and blurted out: "Are you back?"
There was an inexplicably weird atmosphere, as if I was waiting for him specially... No... It felt like a wife greeting a husband who had returned home...
Lin Mo was embarrassed, what was he thinking in such a mess? ?
Seeing that Lin Mo avoided his gift, Su Changfeng asked: "Your Majesty came to Weichen's mansion late at night, what is the so-called?" Although His Majesty had conveyed his affection to him through books, it is not uncommon for him to go directly to his home like this. more common.
Could it be that His Majesty...
Su Changfeng had various guesses in his mind, but he never expected that Lin Mo was talking about this.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean is that there are refugees from Shandong who have fled to the capital?" Su Changfeng frowned tightly, and he lost all thoughts of those romances.
"I have already sent Dongchang and Jinyiwei to investigate this matter. If it is true, I must send a capable minister to manage this matter." Hearing Lin Mo's words, Su Changfeng had someone to choose.
"Yang Qing, the censor of the right capital, was originally going to be transferred back to the capital to serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. Now that he is almost in Henan, let him go directly to Shandong to investigate the situation. If the situation is serious, he will act cheaply."
Yang Qing is a prudent and talented person, one of Su Changfeng's arms.Su Changfeng also had a good impression of him and trusted him.
Although this is just a setting in the book, seeing Su Changfeng's current performance, he knows that he really has a lot of trust in Yang Qing.
And this time the insect plague was also mentioned in the original book, but this time the insect plague was just to make the heroine gain her reputation.Now that the imperial treasury is empty, after this insect disaster, the heroine gave advice to King Ning, asking him to donate silver to the treasury, so as to gain a good reputation, and almost want to put the title of virtuous king on top of her head.This also aroused the suspicion of the Hunjun, and he made a good calculation of King Ning.
Although Lin Mo didn't understand why he planned on King Ning and wanted to give King Ning an aphrodisiac, even though he understood that the author intended to promote the relationship between the hero and the heroine, he actually gave the aphrodisiac! ! !Laxatives are better than aphrodisiacs!Lin Mo was also speechless to the author.
Yang Qing, Lin Mo is naturally relieved, he is still one of the little bosses, and King Ning only killed Su Changfeng after he was killed.
Speaking of which, these disasters, as well as the bad government of the court, these beginnings are just the background in the heroine's world, and they are for the heroine to fall in love more conveniently.This is a romance novel, so what else is it?
Wherever a disaster occurs in the book, a disaster will definitely happen. Whoever is unhappy in the book, those people will really be unhappy all their lives.Maybe the author just wrote it casually, and then people in this world will suffer.What's even more frightening is that the author just mentioned such a sentence, but the world will be shattered to cater to what the author wrote.The author who manipulated the whole world like this suddenly made Lin Mo a little disgusted.
After all, what they write is just words, but in Lin Mo's eyes, it is a world.
Lin Mo has no way to resist the author, let alone blame the Seventh Division. After all, the Seventh Division exists to protect these worlds. Without the protection of the Seventh Division, the world may have been separated and analyzed long ago.
What Lin Mo can do now is to try his best to solve these problems through the plot characters. Thinking that although Su Changfeng is the male lead, he is still the author's favorite, and even his fans are much more than the male lead's. For every three comments below, there are two comments asking to change the male lead.
The article did not specifically describe how the pest plague was eliminated, nor did it describe how the pest plague was discovered, nor did it say who wiped out the pest plague. This really caught Lin Mo off guard, because Lin Mo had no idea , The date when these things happened can only be judged by the event, but it is also convenient for Lin Mo to take advantage of loopholes.
After all, Lin Mo thought of the two father and son sitting with nothing but the wall, and the way the father begged, begging himself to give his son a way out.
It is worth doing such a thing, even if these things are not in line with the behavior of the faint king.
This time, even the character occ Lin Mo gritted his teeth and recognized it!
Thinking of this, Lin Mo took out the "Ancient Pest Control Manual" that he had copied from the system, and handed this booklet to Su Changfeng, asking him to bring it to Yang Qing.Su Changfeng flipped through it. Although the name of this booklet is somewhat straightforward and weird, it is written in a very orderly manner. It not only mentions the experience of Prime Minister Yao in the Tang Dynasty in combating insect plagues, but also raises more livestock to eat those insects. , although the method of livestock can only be used in places with minor disasters, it also has an extra way of life.
If the pest disaster is okay in the early stage, as long as it can be saved by manpower, it will not become a disaster. The most fearful thing is that it has already become a climate, and at that time, even the most powerful methods cannot be used.
After Lin Mo took out the brochure, he began to discuss with Su Changfeng how to get the gentry to donate. After all, the national treasury is empty now, so it is certain that they will not be able to provide the relief money. Set an example, donate money first, the problem should not be big.
However, the donations from these officials are definitely not enough, and they still have to rely on those businessmen.
"I've heard that Yangzhou salt merchants fight for riches. They once built a white pagoda overnight? And they used treasures and utensils to beg ugly people?" Lin Mo tilted his head and looked at Su Changfeng.That posture was really not solemn and solemn, and he lost the manner of the emperor, but he felt very happy seeing Lin Mo lose his composure in front of him, because Su Changfeng knew that his Majesty treated him differently.
This is something that makes me very happy when I think about it.
Su Changfeng didn't have any love life. In his youth, because of his young age and good looks, many people really coveted him.In addition, when he started, he didn't have anyone behind him to protect him. At that time, he hated the Longyang matter to the extreme.
Later, when Su Changfeng got married, his uncles and sisters-in-law made troubles again.His parents were absent, and he had no close relatives at home, and his uncle had to decide the marriage, but Su Changfeng didn't want his marriage to be placed in the hands of those people, so he continued the marriage that his parents had arranged for him, took a ghost wife, and Said that she will always be his wife.
The words of a matchmaker ordered by his parents, who went to Guliang early without even meeting him a few times, naturally didn't hold much weight in Su Changfeng's heart.The only thing Su Changfeng can do for him is to treat her parents well, so as not to make her feel uneasy.
Su Changfeng thought that he would never find someone who he liked in this world, but he happened to meet Lin Mo.
Seeing Su Changfeng's dazed look, Lin Mo waved his hand in front of his eyes, and seeing Su Changfeng come back to his senses, he said, "What is Su Qing thinking?"
"Most of the wealthy businessmen now don't seek profit, but only seek fame. If the emperor orders to reward those who donate money, they will naturally respond like a cloud." Su Changfeng bluntly changed the topic to disaster relief.
Hearing this, Lin Mo said happily: "That's right, that's right, I think so too. If that's the case, I might as well turn the commendation into an imperial plaque! This saves money, and those businessmen will be happy."
"Your Majesty!" Su Changfeng suddenly interrupted Lin Mo, Lin Mo looked at Su Changfeng, "Su Qing?"
"I have something I want to offer to His Majesty, and I hope His Majesty will not dislike it!" Su Changfeng was inexplicably ashamed, after all, this was the first time he responded.
Although Lin Mo didn't understand why he talked about giving things from disaster relief, but based on the principle of being a bastard if he has an advantage, he nodded happily and said, "What is Su Qing planning to offer?"
Su Changfeng took out the concentric knot from his sleeve.
Get married and know each other, and you will live forever.
Since you promised me a lifetime, I will do my best to take the peaceful and prosperous age as my employment, and the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains as my gift.I just want to be old forever, never leave the white head.
The author has something to say:
Whoops, this guy finally confessed, he was groaning.
OCC means that outofcharacter breaks away from the role played, makes words and deeds that are separated from the world background and role positioning, and destroys the role-playing atmosphere.
The little beggar stopped shaking, opened the package of dim sum, took one and ate it, his hands were also very dirty, and left a fingerprint on the snow-white dim sum, but the little beggar didn't pay attention to those things, and chewed vigorously , and seemed reluctant to swallow it.
After taking a bite, the little beggar first glanced at the people around him, then rewrapped the snack, hugged it tightly in his arms, then looked at Lin Mo and said, "Master, my name is Xiao Shitou. Come get water here."

The little beggar seemed to be frightened by Lin Mo's frown, and said in a trembling voice: "If you go back to the old man, the old man is having a feast on it! The villain dare not... dare not fight on the top Seeing Lin Mo's lifeless look, Shui continued, "Although this side is farther away, it doesn't matter if you walk a few more steps."
Speaking of this, the little beggar smiled, showing a little yellow teeth.
Lin Mo knew that it was natural for those people to drive these people away in order not to disturb the fun of the banquet, but he still felt that it was too much.

Lin Mo looked at the little beggar standing beside him, reached out and patted his head lightly, and said, "Take me to see your father, please? I'll find a doctor for your father!"
When I arrived at the little beggar's house, I realized what a real house was like, or it wasn't even the four walls. Half of the walls collapsed, and the whistling cold wind was extremely cold.The ground was covered with straw, and an equally thin and almost out-of-shape person was lying on the pile of straw, covered with a quilt that was so torn that blackened cotton wool was exposed.
The man's face was yellow, his cheekbones were high and protruding, and his eyes were extraordinarily big, which made people a little scary, but there was no spirit in those too big eyes.
Later, when I saw Lin Mo and his party, I was a little angry. When I saw Lin Mo and his party coming in, the thin and shapeless man tried to stand up, but he didn't have the strength to stand up at all.

I beg you, can give Xiao Shitou a bite of food, give him a bite of food, and let him live in peace Just go down. Please, my lord! Please!"
Seeing that Xiao Shitou's father seemed to be planning to kneel down for him, Lin Mo stepped forward to support him and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of him, and you don't want to leave Xiao Shitou alone and let him die alone. loved ones."
============================================
Lin Mo walked on the street with Eunuch Wei and the guards. It was getting late, and the setting sun dyed the whole street golden. I don't know, somewhere, there are people in hell.
Here the gold leaves are used as tiles, and fine wine is poured into the river. Over there, countless wives and families are broken up, begging to be sold into slavery, only wishing to live, and living is also a wish...
Lin Mo ordered Eunuch Wei to investigate things in Shandong. After thinking about it, Lin Mo still came to Su Changfeng's mansion.
Su Changfeng's mansion was granted by the imperial court, naturally dignified and solemn, but when Lin Mo entered the mansion, he found that the mansion was also very empty, probably because of the lack of popularity.
The butler led Lin Mo into the living room, served a pot of good tea, and disappeared.Lin Mo told Eunuch Wei to settle the father and son.It was agreed that after Eunuch Wei finished his work, he would meet at Su Shoufu's mansion, so he was not by Lin Mo's side.
Lin Mo was also a little bored in the living room, and when he thought of what the two father and son said, he felt very angry.In order to calm himself down, he looked around the living room, trying to find something to divert his attention.
It's just that there is nothing in the living room, but a painting hanging on the wall caught Lin Mo's attention. It was a picture of ink bamboo.Bamboo is one of the four gentlemen. It is quite normal for Su Changfeng to have a picture of bamboo here, but the poem inscribed on the painting is not about bamboo, but the last two lines of Yu Gong's chant: " I'm not afraid of being smashed to pieces, and I want to stay innocent in the world."
Lin Mo's heart sank inexplicably, and he put those inexplicable thoughts aside.
When Su Changfeng came in, he saw Lin Mo standing in front of the picture, seemingly in deep thought.
The candlelight in the room was very bright, and one could clearly see the expression on His Majesty's face.
Su Changfeng coughed lightly, and when Lin Mo turned around, he bowed and saluted.
Lin Mo looked at Su Changfeng standing in front of him, and blurted out: "Are you back?"
There was an inexplicably weird atmosphere, as if I was waiting for him specially... No... It felt like a wife greeting a husband who had returned home...
Lin Mo was embarrassed, what was he thinking in such a mess? ?
Seeing that Lin Mo avoided his gift, Su Changfeng asked: "Your Majesty came to Weichen's mansion late at night, what is the so-called?" Although His Majesty had conveyed his affection to him through books, it is not uncommon for him to go directly to his home like this. more common.
Could it be that His Majesty...
Su Changfeng had various guesses in his mind, but he never expected that Lin Mo was talking about this.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean is that there are refugees from Shandong who have fled to the capital?" Su Changfeng frowned tightly, and he lost all thoughts of those romances.
"I have already sent Dongchang and Jinyiwei to investigate this matter. If it is true, I must send a capable minister to manage this matter." Hearing Lin Mo's words, Su Changfeng had someone to choose.
"Yang Qing, the censor of the right capital, was originally going to be transferred back to the capital to serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. Now that he is almost in Henan, let him go directly to Shandong to investigate the situation. If the situation is serious, he will act cheaply."
Yang Qing is a prudent and talented person, one of Su Changfeng's arms.Su Changfeng also had a good impression of him and trusted him.
Although this is just a setting in the book, seeing Su Changfeng's current performance, he knows that he really has a lot of trust in Yang Qing.
And this time the insect plague was also mentioned in the original book, but this time the insect plague was just to make the heroine gain her reputation.Now that the imperial treasury is empty, after this insect disaster, the heroine gave advice to King Ning, asking him to donate silver to the treasury, so as to gain a good reputation, and almost want to put the title of virtuous king on top of her head.This also aroused the suspicion of the Hunjun, and he made a good calculation of King Ning.
Although Lin Mo didn't understand why he planned on King Ning and wanted to give King Ning an aphrodisiac, even though he understood that the author intended to promote the relationship between the hero and the heroine, he actually gave the aphrodisiac! ! !Laxatives are better than aphrodisiacs!Lin Mo was also speechless to the author.
Yang Qing, Lin Mo is naturally relieved, he is still one of the little bosses, and King Ning only killed Su Changfeng after he was killed.
Speaking of which, these disasters, as well as the bad government of the court, these beginnings are just the background in the heroine's world, and they are for the heroine to fall in love more conveniently.This is a romance novel, so what else is it?
Wherever a disaster occurs in the book, a disaster will definitely happen. Whoever is unhappy in the book, those people will really be unhappy all their lives.Maybe the author just wrote it casually, and then people in this world will suffer.What's even more frightening is that the author just mentioned such a sentence, but the world will be shattered to cater to what the author wrote.The author who manipulated the whole world like this suddenly made Lin Mo a little disgusted.
After all, what they write is just words, but in Lin Mo's eyes, it is a world.
Lin Mo has no way to resist the author, let alone blame the Seventh Division. After all, the Seventh Division exists to protect these worlds. Without the protection of the Seventh Division, the world may have been separated and analyzed long ago.
What Lin Mo can do now is to try his best to solve these problems through the plot characters. Thinking that although Su Changfeng is the male lead, he is still the author's favorite, and even his fans are much more than the male lead's. For every three comments below, there are two comments asking to change the male lead.
The article did not specifically describe how the pest plague was eliminated, nor did it describe how the pest plague was discovered, nor did it say who wiped out the pest plague. This really caught Lin Mo off guard, because Lin Mo had no idea , The date when these things happened can only be judged by the event, but it is also convenient for Lin Mo to take advantage of loopholes.
After all, Lin Mo thought of the two father and son sitting with nothing but the wall, and the way the father begged, begging himself to give his son a way out.
It is worth doing such a thing, even if these things are not in line with the behavior of the faint king.
This time, even the character occ Lin Mo gritted his teeth and recognized it!
Thinking of this, Lin Mo took out the "Ancient Pest Control Manual" that he had copied from the system, and handed this booklet to Su Changfeng, asking him to bring it to Yang Qing.Su Changfeng flipped through it. Although the name of this booklet is somewhat straightforward and weird, it is written in a very orderly manner. It not only mentions the experience of Prime Minister Yao in the Tang Dynasty in combating insect plagues, but also raises more livestock to eat those insects. , although the method of livestock can only be used in places with minor disasters, it also has an extra way of life.
If the pest disaster is okay in the early stage, as long as it can be saved by manpower, it will not become a disaster. The most fearful thing is that it has already become a climate, and at that time, even the most powerful methods cannot be used.
After Lin Mo took out the brochure, he began to discuss with Su Changfeng how to get the gentry to donate. After all, the national treasury is empty now, so it is certain that they will not be able to provide the relief money. Set an example, donate money first, the problem should not be big.
However, the donations from these officials are definitely not enough, and they still have to rely on those businessmen.
"I've heard that Yangzhou salt merchants fight for riches. They once built a white pagoda overnight? And they used treasures and utensils to beg ugly people?" Lin Mo tilted his head and looked at Su Changfeng.That posture was really not solemn and solemn, and he lost the manner of the emperor, but he felt very happy seeing Lin Mo lose his composure in front of him, because Su Changfeng knew that his Majesty treated him differently.
This is something that makes me very happy when I think about it.
Su Changfeng didn't have any love life. In his youth, because of his young age and good looks, many people really coveted him.In addition, when he started, he didn't have anyone behind him to protect him. At that time, he hated the Longyang matter to the extreme.
Later, when Su Changfeng got married, his uncles and sisters-in-law made troubles again.His parents were absent, and he had no close relatives at home, and his uncle had to decide the marriage, but Su Changfeng didn't want his marriage to be placed in the hands of those people, so he continued the marriage that his parents had arranged for him, took a ghost wife, and Said that she will always be his wife.
The words of a matchmaker ordered by his parents, who went to Guliang early without even meeting him a few times, naturally didn't hold much weight in Su Changfeng's heart.The only thing Su Changfeng can do for him is to treat her parents well, so as not to make her feel uneasy.
Su Changfeng thought that he would never find someone who he liked in this world, but he happened to meet Lin Mo.
Seeing Su Changfeng's dazed look, Lin Mo waved his hand in front of his eyes, and seeing Su Changfeng come back to his senses, he said, "What is Su Qing thinking?"
"Most of the wealthy businessmen now don't seek profit, but only seek fame. If the emperor orders to reward those who donate money, they will naturally respond like a cloud." Su Changfeng bluntly changed the topic to disaster relief.
Hearing this, Lin Mo said happily: "That's right, that's right, I think so too. If that's the case, I might as well turn the commendation into an imperial plaque! This saves money, and those businessmen will be happy."
"Your Majesty!" Su Changfeng suddenly interrupted Lin Mo, Lin Mo looked at Su Changfeng, "Su Qing?"
"I have something I want to offer to His Majesty, and I hope His Majesty will not dislike it!" Su Changfeng was inexplicably ashamed, after all, this was the first time he responded.
Although Lin Mo didn't understand why he talked about giving things from disaster relief, but based on the principle of being a bastard if he has an advantage, he nodded happily and said, "What is Su Qing planning to offer?"
Su Changfeng took out the concentric knot from his sleeve.
Get married and know each other, and you will live forever.
Since you promised me a lifetime, I will do my best to take the peaceful and prosperous age as my employment, and the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains as my gift.I just want to be old forever, never leave the white head.
The author has something to say:
Whoops, this guy finally confessed, he was groaning.
OCC means that outofcharacter breaks away from the role played, makes words and deeds that are separated from the world background and role positioning, and destroys the role-playing atmosphere.
