The scene was filled with exclamations one after another, and the dejected eyes of the people rekindled their hope. They looked at Qin Feng with great fervor.
"Master Qin is really here to make decisions for us!"
"Great! God has finally opened his eyes."
"Although the Marquis of Qin is a good man, but... he is from Liang after all..."
"So what?! We can't live anymore, why do we care what country he is from?"
"What I'm saying is that we are the people of Dadi, but we need people from Liang to rescue us. Is there such a sad thing in the world? I don't care which country the Marquis of Qin is from, he is a living Bodhisattva now!"
The people at the scene became excited and shouted "Living Bodhisattva".
Qin Feng had no intention of causing a sensation. He came to Changshui County just to ensure that the plan could proceed smoothly and avoid unnecessary complications.
However, Beidi had just experienced a war, followed by freezing weather. Life was too hard, and all the people were living in despair.
At this time, no matter who lends a helping hand, the people will naturally be grateful.
The Beidi court was not indifferent to the people. It had made great determination to open warehouses to release grain for disaster relief. Unfortunately, the national treasury was empty, coupled with the boiling public dissatisfaction, all policies were based on "stability", so for local officials The imperial court could only turn a blind eye to the tyrants' exploitative behavior, fearing that their hands would get too deeply involved and the domestic situation would further deteriorate.
This concern was not unreasonable, but the result was terrible. Money was spent and food was donated, but the people did not think the court was good. On the contrary, the people's resentment further expanded.
This is called money spent but things not done.
Of course, this cannot be entirely blamed on the imperial court. After all, the imperial court also has limited energy. Now all its attention is focused on three major issues: relations with Liang, trade agreements, and Sangzhou and Zhuozhou.
The Ministry of Household Affairs, which is responsible for the people's livelihood, is also a member of the Eagle Party. They oppose Qin Feng for the sake of opposing Qin Feng, so they naturally have a great deal of concern for the people.
With the increasing pressure, Beidi’s domestic situation is worrying!
However, it is not Qin Feng's turn to worry about these things. At least until Jing Qianying returns to the royal family, Qin Feng can just watch the fire from the other side.
"What's your name?" Qin Feng looked at the next woman and asked pleasantly.
In the next half hour, Qin Feng showed great patience and asked the women present one by one about their situation. Anyone who had an elderly person or a young child in the family who needed to be taken care of and raised would be "compensated" with a bag of grain.
Women who were simply captured by the Wu family and whose family burden was relatively light would be compensated with half a bag of grain.
After all the women at the scene have been dealt with, we will start to deal with the men. Those who do not volunteer will be compensated with half a bag of food, and those who voluntarily come to work will be brought to the county government for temporary resettlement.
After the incident, of the hundreds of people present, there were only less than fifty strong men left.
These people are from poor families and have to brave the severe cold to earn some money to supplement their family income.
Qin Feng glanced at Wu Heng. Before he could speak, the guy was smiling, nodding and bowing.
"Qin Hou, don't worry, these people will ensure that everything is properly arranged."
"What are you doing standing still? Go move things, build a shed, and get firewood from the house. It's freezing cold here. If someone gets frozen, can you afford the responsibility?"
The people present were all stunned.
This Wu Heng, because he was related to Wu Dagui, was used to being domineering and domineering. Not to mention taking the initiative to provoke him, even if he met him halfway, he might make things difficult for him and beat him up.
But now, this guy seems to have changed into a different person, that is, he is attentive.
It wasn't until everyone discovered that Wu Heng looked at Qin Feng with extremely flattering eyes that they realized that this guy had been frightened by Qin Feng.
At the same time, Wu's house has become a mess.
Wu Dagui walked around with his hands behind his back, like an ant on a hot pot.
He originally planned to give Qin Feng a warning and let Qin Feng know who has the final say in this land.
As a result, Wu Dagui was severely slapped in the face by the cruel reality.
First, the news of Wu Qi's death came back, and then Wu Heng was mentioned and slipped away like a chicken.
The dozens of nursing homes who came to cheer didn't even dare to let out a single fart.
Wu Dagui suddenly realized that with just a few people in his hands, he could oppress and oppress the people. Facing Qin Feng and the tiger and wolf masters around him, it was all for nothing.
Just now, Wu Dagui was called back to the backyard by his wife. He thought it was some family matter, but he was horrified to find two royal guards sitting next to the stone bench, looking at him slyly.
The family members, old and young, all huddled up in a ball, scared out of their wits.
There was a servant's body lying on the ground, and his blood was cold. Who knows when these two guards in royal robes sneaked into the mansion.
At first, Wu Dagui thought that the servant was looking for death and acted recklessly in front of the Jin Yiwei, which led to his death.
When asked, Wu Dagui was almost frightened to death.
Jin Yiwei killed that servant simply to give Wu Dagui a warning, and for no other reason.
"This...is the Jin Yiwei..."
Wu Dagui sat back on his chair, his palms sweating. Whenever he thought of Jin Yiwei, his heart would beat fast.
How kind Qin Feng is, how cruel Jin Yiwei is!
At the moment, Wu Dagui dares to ask for anything extravagantly. He only hopes that Qin Feng can calm down, otherwise he will be close to losing his family and his family.
At this moment, Wu Heng stumbled back.
"Boss! Boss! Quick, arrange manpower quickly and go to the county government to build shanties."
Wu Dagui frowned and asked in confusion: "Why build a shanty?"
Wu Heng took a few breaths and panted: "What else can we do? Of course it is to arrange for those coolies."
Upon hearing this, Wu Dagui's face suddenly became extremely ugly: "What's there to do with a bunch of mud-legged people?"
"It's really evil. Is Qin Feng really the reincarnation of a living Bodhisattva?"
"But even if he is a living Bodhisattva, he only needs to contribute his own money and efforts. Why do you want to drag me into the water?"
"I've already sent hundreds of kilos of food, and I've lost money. Now I have to build a shantytown. How much will it cost?"
Seeing that Wu Dagui was full of resentment, Wu Heng turned pale with fright and quickly made a "shh" gesture.
Wu Heng quickly pulled Wu Dagui aside and lowered his voice.
"My boss, please stop complaining. Marquis Qin is too lazy to meet with us, so he just has fun secretly."
Hearing this, Wu Dagui frowned even deeper: "Why, Qin Feng doesn't plan to come to raise an army to question his guilt?"
Wu Heng sighed and said with a wry smile: "Qin Hou has no intention of coming at all, so don't scare yourself."
Seeing that Wu Dagui was still a little frightened, Wu Heng could only explain patiently: "My boss, I can see it!"
