Legendary star: Signed to the Palace at the beginning

Chapter 186

Chapter 186

Knowing that he had made the right bet this time, he spread the word to ten and ten to hundreds, and more medical school apprentices flocked to Qujiang Pond.

Sun Simiao organized the doctors and apprentices into groups according to their specialties, and arranged for the apprentices to purchase various medicinal materials in preparation for the arrival of the disaster victims.

Yang Guang has ordered government officers at all levels to let the victims move forward to the Qujiangchi resettlement area.

Soon, many disaster victims came outside Qujiang Pond, all of them were sallow and emaciated, with dull eyes and ragged clothes.

Standing in front of the camp gate, Qu Tutong said loudly: "Everyone line up, take a bath and disinfect first, and then enter the camp gate. There is food to eat and work to do."

When the victims heard the words, they lined up and walked forward one by one with dull eyes. They didn't know what their fate would be in the future. Many people would die in every flood, and they didn't know if their family would be next.

Men and women are separated. After taking a bath, they change into simple clothes. The clothes they took off are soaked in boiling hot water to disinfect them.

The purchased Artemisia annua and other medicines have been delivered, and the big pot is boiled. No matter whether you are sick or not, each person has a bowl. If you are sick, you can treat them and prevent them if you are not.

The victims saw that the ground in the camp was covered with white ash, and there were hundreds of cauldrons in front of the kitchen door, filled with yellow rice porridge.

After drinking a bowl of porridge, my hunger was relieved, and I fell asleep peacefully.

The next day, Sun Simiao's six genius doctors led dozens of apprentices to check the bodies of the victims, and those who were sick entered the simple hospital for treatment.

On the third day, the healthy victims distributed labor.

The strong laborers finally had something to eat, and then they distributed the tools to each person and began to clean the Longshou Canal, or level the site and go up the mountain to quarry stones.

Women sewed yesterday's disinfected and dried clothes and bedding, and children went around the world catching rats and mosquitoes to clean up.

Seeing that the disaster-stricken area was well organized, Xiao Chuan ordered Lai Hu'er and Qu Tu to communicate, thinking about Yang Guang, and ordered the dog to drive the carriage to Prince Jin's Mansion.

The guards in front of Prince Jin's Mansion were heavily guarded, and Xiao Chuan was notified before entering the mansion.

In the living room with the door closed, there were bursts of pleading for forgiveness from time to time.

"Your Highness, the villain really only has a thousand shi of grain, I am willing to donate it all."

"Your Highness, there is no grain left in the villain's house, and there are only mice left in the warehouse of the grain store."

"Your Highness, let us go, we have no food to die of starvation."

Under the guidance of the eunuch, Xiao Chuan entered Yang Guang's room, where Yang Guang was sulking.

Xiao Chuan said carefully: "Your Highness, why are you angry?"

Yang Guangdao: "I'm so pissed off. These profiteers, I asked them to sell grain at a low price. They have been starving all day and night, and they are still yelling that there is no food. I want to see how long they can last."

Xiao Chuan said: "His Royal Highness, those profiteers are not ordinary people, they are backed by nobles and nobles from aristocratic families, you really can't force them to death, if a grain merchant starves to death in the Jin Palace, His Highness will definitely be impeached by the officials Yes, disaster relief will fail.”

Yang Guang shouted: "Then what should we do? Just let them go like this? Not only can't raise food, but it's too cheap for them, and Xiao Wang will also make a mess and lose face."

Xiao Chuan said: "His Royal Highness, if you are strong, you will be wise, if you are weak, you will take nothing. To deal with these black-hearted big grain merchants, the strong will not work. We have to use our brains."

Yang Guang's eyes lit up and he said: "Xiao Chuan, you are right, Xiao Wang is confused by these bastards. Please help Xiao Wang think about how to use your wits to earn their food?"

In Xiao Chuan's mind, all kinds of disgusting methods used by the developers in the previous life to force the eviction of the nail households emerged in his mind. Now, in order to save people, he has to use them.

Xiao Chuan's mind turned sharply.

"Dig trenches? Enclose grain merchants' warehouses?"

"Throw dead cats and dogs into the granary?"

"Drag the grain merchant out of his home in the middle of the night, and then strip his house?"

Xiao Chuan thought of several ideas, but Yang Guang didn't think any of them would work.

So he asked: "Your Highness, what do you think the grain merchants are afraid of?"

Yang Guangdao: "Of course I'm afraid of low food prices."

Xiao Chuan said: "Apart from this? What are you most afraid of?"

Yang Guangdao: "That's ransacking the family and exterminating the family. When my father was a courtier, the Emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty tested his loyalty several times. We live in fear every day, but those profiteers did not break the law, did not rebel, and there is no way to ransack the family and exterminate the family. "

When the word "rebellion" was mentioned, Yang Guang suddenly had an idea, and the evil tide in his heart surged up.

A sinister smile appeared on Yang Guang's face, and he said, "Rebellion? You can force them to rebel, or suspect them of rebellion."

"Xiao Chuan, I have a solution, we have food."

Immediately, Yang Guang and Xiao Chuan whispered.

Xiao Chuan said: "Your Highness, you are still worse than me, no, smarter than me."

Yang Guang looked at Xiao Chuan and stammered, "It's just that the people are very angry about this, Xiao Wang..."

Xiao Chuan immediately understood, and said: "Your Highness is wise, how can you do these things, I will do it."

Xiao Chuan thought to himself: "If I don't come out and offend people, how can I leave a bad name and get disgust points?"

In the dark night, hundreds of people divided into dozens of small teams and sneaked into the warehouses of major grain merchants. After a while, they quietly left and stood guard nearby.

In the morning of the next day, Xiao Chuan was fully clothed, holding Shangfang's sword in his hand, and led Lai Hu'er and Qu Tutong, who were also in uniform, and five hundred fully armed soldiers, to the grain warehouse of the largest grain merchant of the Yun family in Chang'an City.

Xiao Chuan held up Shangfang's sword and said in a loud voice: "The Qujiangchi Tunwei lost a lot of weapons and armor yesterday. In order to prevent thieves from stealing weapons and armor and rebelling, this place is now sealed off, and the warehouses are searched door-to-door."

Qu Tutong got the order and led dozens of soldiers to the Yun's granary.

"This is the granary of Master Yun Taiyun's family."

The steward in charge of the granary was about to step forward to stop him, but was kicked away by Qu Tutong.

The other guard had a bad sense, and immediately ran away and reported to Yunfu.

The soldiers who had been ordered a long time ago did not stop them, but controlled the other Yunfu granary guards.

The granary steward didn't care to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, knelt and crawled in front of Xiao Chuan, and said in a trembling voice, "My lord, this is the granary of the Yun family. You can't go in, or the master will beat me to death."

Xiao Chuan said coldly: "My lord is searching for lost weapons, do you dare to stop them?"

The manager of the granary said: "The villain dare not, but please see that the villain has the old and the young, and let the villain have a way out. Can you wait for my master to come and open the warehouse?"

Xiao Chuan thought for a while and said: "Well, this place has been blocked anyway, and I'm not afraid of losing my weapon and running away. I'll wait for your master to come before opening the warehouse."

The granary manager hurriedly moved a chair for Xiao Chuan, wiped it with his sleeve, and respectfully invited Xiao Chuan to sit down.

Xiao Chuan was not in a hurry, and sat down firmly.

Today I was supposed to kill a chicken for the monkeys to watch, but the chickens and the monkeys didn't come, and it was useless to kill an ant.

Surrounded by warehouses, workers were densely packed, and soon surrounded by many spectators, and some warehouse managers felt that something was wrong, so they secretly sent someone out to report to the master.

The soldiers led by Lai Hu'er did not stop them, but just guarded the gates of each granary, preventing idlers from entering and leaving at will.
