With just a few words, Old Liu described the current embarrassment of the farmers.

And this must be relatively better. Boss Zhang said before that many people are frozen to death every day during this kind of heavy snow, and Li Chen absolutely believes that he will not be talking nonsense.

Seeing Li Chen's face gloomy, Wan Jiaojiao asked: "I have to freeze to death every day, and the grains in the fields are not harvested, so many people are unable to expose the pot and go to beg for food. In this case, why didn't the local officials report to the court?

What about the disaster relief moves? At least some cotton coats and quilts and opening some porridge factories is not difficult."

Boss Zhang smiled bitterly when he heard this, "This girl, young master, seeing you dressed and talked, you should be from a wealthy family. I don't know that these are normal, but it will not be of any benefit to you if you ask too much about these things. Just ask, girl.

Then, I will tell you, for the officials, the life and death of the people is the least important. They even wish that the disaster will be more serious and more people will die. This is the best way to do so."

This made Wan Jiaojiao widen her eyes and asked in disbelief: "How is it possible!? What are the benefits for them to die more people?"

But Boss Zhang showed a secret expression, obviously he was unwilling to say more.

At this time, Li Chen said lightly: "The more people die, the more serious the disaster situation will be. The more disaster relief funds will be allocated by the court, and the higher the proportion of exemption from taxes in the next year. Perhaps they may not dare to do anything to the tax, but the higher the tax is transferred.

Which layer of disaster relief funds are not plucked by the geese, and it would be great if the ones sent to the people who finally got a success."

"If it is an ordinary minor disaster, the current financial situation of the court may not be able to squeeze out much money. Maybe they can find a way to do it themselves. In this way, the local officials will not only fail to get the benefits, but also have to recite it.

The big trouble comes back, so naturally I have to wait. If some people die, the more they die, the better. The longer the snow falls, the better the bigger the better. The disaster is big enough, the court cannot sit idly by and there will be no money anymore.

If they have to find a way to squeeze out money to provide disaster relief, wouldn’t they be able to get benefits?”

After hearing Li Chen's words, Boss Zhang smiled and gave Li Chen a thumbs up and said, "If the young master hadn't looked too young, I would have thought the young master was an old man who had been in the officialdom for a long time."

Li Chen asked some details again, and Boss Zhang and Lao Liu answered some, but they were obviously a little restrained and dared not say much about some sensitive content. Li Chen actually knew it, but it was not easy to ask in depth. Anyway, these things were

, It would be fine if he didn't know, once he knew some signs, he would turn around and ask the Jinyiwei to go down and check it. Those who are officials will fool him. The Jinyiwei doesn't have the courage to do so, and he can understand everything clearly.

"Give this father some quilts and food."

Li Chen said to Boss Zhang: "I plan on my account."

Without waiting for Old Liu to thank him, Li Chen took Wan Jiaojiao away.

Boss Zhang quickly went to pick up some things and handed them to Lao Liu in a bundle, sighing: "Old Liu, you have met noble people. There are not many such good people in this world."

Old Liu was very moved and murmured: "I hope a good person will be safe all his life."

At this time, in the inn room, Li Chen took a sip of tea, put down the tea cup heavily, and said, "Although I know that there are no fish when the water is clear, some fish are really not afraid of killing them! I deserve to peel them and get cramps!
