Chapter 95 Asking for Food

The next day, all counties in Beidi County set up porridge sheds. Although the porridge in the bowl was clear and reflected, the people did not complain at all, because the county magistrates of each county were next to the porridge shed, drinking the clear rice porridge and eating coarse and dried noodles.

Even if it is thrifty, the rice grain in Beidi County can only last for four days. The whole Beidi County has completely run out of grain. Now the warehouses in Beidi County have been empty, and all the grain and rice have been sent to the counties. At this time, there is no news from Mizhu, and the soldiers sent to the nearby counties for grain have not returned. Are all the soldiers and refugees? Do you want to spend your day in the northwest?

When Zhang Li heard that Jia Rong was summoned, he put down the affairs in his hand and hurriedly came. Looking at Jia Rong sitting in a chair with a calm and relaxed look, Zhang Li couldn't help admiring him. If he faced such an embarrassing situation, he could twist a few pairs of shoes on his feet. Thinking of Jia Rong mentioned that he should be steady dealing with things a few days ago, Zhang Li After straightening his sleeves and giving a salute, he sat in the lower position at the sign of Jia Rong.

It seems that Jia Rong is extremely relaxed, but in fact, he has already been anxious in his heart. He went straight to the topic and said, "Zirong, now that there is no food in the city, what should he do in Zirong's opinion?"

Zhang Liluo pondered and replied, "My lord, the lord should know the four major families in Bei County, right?"

Jia Rong asked puzzledly, "It was not Zirong who mentioned those families before, which was actually the opposite of us. Why do you mention the four major families now?"

Zhang Li said slowly, "Master, so far, we have no conflict with the four major families. As long as the master is willing to lower his posture, the four major families will still sell to the master a favor, and we can wait until the arrival of Mizhu's grain and rice."

Jia Rong picked up the teacup in front of him and turned around repeatedly in his hand. After a long time, he gently put the cup on the table and sighed, "In Zirong's opinion, as long as he can save those disaster victims, no matter how much they pay."

Zhang Li was moved. If the officials of the Han Dynasty were like this, why not worry about the uncertainty of the sea and the outsiders. Zhang Li also understood that the Han family could not be shaken by the current Beiti County. The officials of the Great Han Dynasty were basically the people of the family, and the family was an important class of the Han Dynasty. Jia Rong's series of governance plans greatly weakened the family. The interests, but there is no conflict between the two. Zhang Li, who is well aware of the influence of the family, naturally hopes that Jia Rong's relationship with the family will ease, so that he can talk after returning to the family.

A four-person sedan chair left the Taishou Mansion and walked slowly to the area where the four great families lived not far away. The four great families lived in the four directions of the city. Jia Rong sat in the sedan chair in a black official uniform and repeatedly stroked the green sword in his hand with an expressionless face. Jia Rong did not know when he developed it. The habit of touching the green sword whenever something happens.

Jia Rong first went to the Wang family, one of the four major families. The Wang family is the boss of the four major families in Bedi County. Both financial resources and relationships are above the other three major families.

The four major families have been rooted in Beiding County for generations. Any bit of wind and grass can't hide the eyes of several masters. Wang Gu, the owner of the Wang family, who got the news, had already waited outside the door and opened the middle door to welcome Jia Rong.

Jia Rong is a Taishou, a feudal official of Xinjiang. The Wang family is only a family in Bedi County. Although the edict issued by the former Jia Rong has harmed the interests of the Wang family, the two sides are still very harmonious. Now Jia Rong visits in person, which means that the Taishou has sent a signal. Wang Gu, the owner of the Wang family, is naturally Unusually happy.

The sedan chair walked very slowly, and the journey of a quarter of an hour was half an hour.

Jia Rong lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and walked down. The Wang family's behavior had long been passed on to Jia Rong by the bodyguard.

"Wang Gugong welcomes Lord Taishou!" With the ploping sound, dozens of people in the Wang family knelt to the ground. Looking at the people who knelt down, Jia Rong was also a little fluttering. Your Wang family is not going to bow three times.

Jia Rong pretended to help Wang Gu up and said with a smile, "Master Wang doesn't have to be so polite!"

Wang Gu enthusiastically welcomed Jia Rong into the house. The layout of the courtyard is unique, and the architectural style is quite a little like a small bridge.

After welcoming Jia Rong into the house, Wang Gu immediately ordered his family to hold a banquet.

The banquet of the Wang family was really sumptuous. Jia Rong, who had not seen the fish for a long time, ate happily. He was full of oil and unconsciously. All the family members of the Wang family toasted, and Jia Rong did not refuse.

A descendant of the Wang family toasted. He took a bite with a chicken leg in his left hand. He picked up the cup in his right hand and drank it all. He smashed his mouth with an unfinished look. Looking at Jia Rong's appearance, the people of the Wang family put down their chopsticks in their hands one after another and quietly watched Jia Rong perform alone.

Jia Rong didn't feel embarrassed. Eating enough is the most important thing. Anyway, these families are not right with themselves. Eat more and drink more to make them feel sad. Jia Rong thought of a weak reason to comfort herself.

The banquet was finally over. In addition to Wang Gu and Jia Rong, others quickly fled the banquet scene. The big man claimed to be the country of etiquette. It was difficult to find the second one for such a great Taisman.

Jia Rong seemed to be dizzy and spoke incoherently. Wang Gu chatted with Jia Rong happily, with a respectful tone, which made people unable to find any problems.

Suddenly, Jia Rong took Wang Gu's hand and said, "Lord, does your family hate me as a governor?"

Looking at Jia Rong's drunken and hazy appearance, Wang Gu smiled vaguely and said, "Lord Taishou is joking, the family supports Lord Taishou!"

"Really?" Jia Rong asked.

"It's true! It's just..."

"Just what?"

Wang Guchang sighed and said, "It's okay if you don't say it!"

The drunken Jia Rong was aroused by Wang Gu's curiosity. How could he give up? He tightly grabbed Wang Gu's clothes and said, "If you don't say no, you and I are both from Beidi County. We should support each other. Just say anything." Jia Rongwu's temperament is exposed.

Wang Gu was overjoyed and said hesitantly, "The edict of the lord... let... we... these families... in Beide County... It's hard to walk an inch!"

Jia Rong staggered and shouted, "This is easy to do! The Taishou Mansion will not participate in your family's business and other aspects in Beidi County, as long as you don't disagree with the Taishou Mansion. After saying that, Jia Rong waved his hand and was extremely heroic, but the wine spewed out of his mouth was not flattering.

Wang Guchang breathed a sigh of relief. Recently, the family contraction was afraid that Jia Rong would take the opportunity to make trouble to the family. Under the eaves, they had to bow their heads. The Wang family was not compared with those big families, but only a small family in Bian County. When Jia Rong first took office, Bedi County was an empty shelf, and there was no trace of the family among the officials, which was also Han. The only special place.

This sentence of people under the eaves is also suitable for the current Jia Rong. Now there is no food in Bedi County. Someday, these families will know that they will pay a greater price for sitting on the ground, so they have to compromise temporarily. Jia Rong is also vague. What is not against the Taishou Mansion, as long as they rectify them? Just take just one reason.

Wang Gu thought that Jia Rong had drunk too much, and there was nothing to say clearly. After the surprise, he did not have the shrewdness of the past. He kept flattering Jia Rong and looked at Jia Rong's continuous smile. Wang Gu's eyes flashed with contempt. Everyone said that this Taishou was arrogant and unreasonable. Now when he saw it, Xiao A piece of cake, a reckless man.

"If you have any requirements in the future, please feel free to mention them. The Wang family will strongly support you!" Wang Gu said with a smile.

Jia Rong took Wang Gu's spleen hands and asked, "Master Wang's words are serious?"

Wang Gu hesitated a little and nodded.

Jia Rong said, "The owner of the Wang family is loyal. Previously, there was still a shortage of grain and fodder in Beidi County. I wonder if the owner can subsidize some?"

The four major families are involved in the trading of grain and rice. Naturally, there will be no shortage of rice and grain, but Jia Rong can't catch the little braid. Wang Gu said in a dilemma: "Hundreds of mouths of the Wang family can't take out too much grain and rice..."

Jia Rong said, "Now there are still a few meritorious people in the Taishou Mansion..."

Wang Gu was very excited after hearing this. He could make the family hold a position in Taishou Mansion, which was of many benefits to the family. He immediately said, "Don't worry, the Wang family will do its best!"

"How much rice does the Lord Wang want to donate to the Taishou Mansion?" Jia Rong asked with drunken eyes.

Wang Gu thought for a moment and replied, "The Wang family is willing to donate 500 stones of rice and grain!"

Seeing that Jia Rong looked at him in a frin, he didn't say a word. Wang Gu thought it was Jia Rong who disliked that he had donated too little. For the future of the family, Wang Gu gritted his teeth and said, "The Wang family is willing to donate a thousand stones of rice and grain!"

Jia Rong was not satisfied that Wang Gu donated too little, but was surprised that Wang Gu donated so much rice grain at one time. Hearing Wang Gu's donation of 1,000 stones of rice grain, Jia Rong still did not react.

Wang Gu said with a bitter face, "Your Excellency, the Wang family can only donate so much."

Jia Rong patted Wang Gu on the shoulder and smiled, "The Lord of the Wang family is generous and loyal. In a few days, the owner of the family can let the descendants of the clan report to the Taishou Mansion."

Wang Gu knelt down excitedly and said, "Thank you, Lord Taishou!" The more you look at Jia Rong, the more you like it.

Jia Rong deliberately shook it left and right a few times and smiled, "I drank too much today."

With the help of the maid of the Wang family, Jia Rong got on the official sedan chair step by step. Four big men carried the sedan chair to the Taishou Mansion. When Wang Gu saw that the official sedan chair was far away, he turned to the house with a happy face.

Jia Rong's eyes in the sedan chair are clear, and there is no drunken step and incoherent just now. He frowned and kept thinking about the Wang family's trip just now.

After this trip to the Wang family, Jia Rong's heart once again set off a stormy wave. The power of the family is so strong that it is unimaginable. A family in a border county can export a thousand stone of grain and rice. If it goes against these families, even if the world is unified, it is difficult to manage. Ninety-five percent of the local governance officials of the Dahan are from the family. In the Han Empire, which is full of families, the family will win the world. On deep thought, cold sweat soaked his clothes, which made it difficult for Jia Rong to resist the family.
