Chapter 208

"Prince, a large number of Henan refugees have entered Shandong." Jinyiwei Zhao Zhenwu came in to report.

Wang Xuejun, who was studying the advance, smiled: "We welcome you when we come. This is a good thing, but why are you frowning?"

Zhao Zhenwu reported in a trembling voice: "The people asked us to help them and save their children."

Wang Xuejun wondered: "What's wrong with their children?"

Zhao Zhenwu replied sadly: "According to them, Henan Governor Yi Daohui distributed millions of grain and millions of silver to the whole province in order to prevent our army from attacking.

Henan has been flooding for many years, and the Yellow River has always flooded and there has been no food and silver. Therefore, I don’t know who came up with the idea of ​​losing money and asked the people to pay taxes for their children.”

"What do they want children? Do they want to open a nursery and kindergarten? They don't have such kindness."

"They want to sell the children to Beijing. The boy was castrated as eunuchs and sold them to the palace and the princes. The girl sold them to the brothel, saying that it was the man of Qing Dynasty who was good at this, and the price was very high."

When Wang Xuejun heard this, he angrily smashed the table: "I am not as good as beasts. Yi Daohui, you are looking for death."

Li Yan's eyes were red: "It's all my Henan children. Please give me a thousand foreign legion soldiers. I'll take the children back."

Wang Xuejun nodded in agreement: "The children of our Han family are all the hopes of our Han people's future. How can they be castrated and enslaved by barbarians? How can they be ravaged and raped by barbarians? But you, a literati, can't do this, I'll do it myself."

Then he looked at Zhao Zhenwu: "Send the Jinyiwei, you must find out the route of escorting them to the children, and I will lead the team to rescue them myself."

Zhao Zhenwu immediately raised his chest and received the order.

The battle meeting on the offensive to Henan was interrupted.

But no officer opposed the surrender of the capture of Henan because of the rescue of the child.

Wang Xuejun told Li Yan: "Originally, we considered that winter was about to begin, and the war was temporarily stopped and we would go on until spring was in full bloom. Now it seems that we can't wait. We must overcome the climate difficulties and start the war to recover Henan in winter."

Li Yan couldn't wait: "We really can't wait any longer. If we wait, the Qing Dynasty plundered a group and starved to death in winter. Then, the Henan people will die. At that time, without the people, what do we want that land to do?"

"You reminded me. This time we attack Henan, we have to bring food for disaster relief. We must preserve even the last bit of vitality."

As soon as he said that, Wang Xuejun immediately wrote to Jinan’s Minister of Revenue and Zhang Ziyan, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, to immediately purchase the food from the people of Shandong. He also informed the people of Shandong and Jiangbei about what happened in Henan, so that the people could understand the truth in Henan, and would definitely ask the people to sell more of the food they had to the government as much as possible to help the people of Henan.

As for the extra money, Wang Xuejun decided to transfer another batch of money to the rest, and the remaining ones would be issued again.

The debt was not cleared, and this time I issued it again. The princess's wife was worried that it would not be issued.

As a result, when the incident in Henan was reported to the whole country, everyone immediately hated the enemy.

As soon as the treasury bond was issued in the securities firm, it was snatched by the people who flocked to it on the same day.

Wang Xiaoer of Yantai, who is in charge of Yantai's household registration, was the first to obtain the news.

After returning home in the evening, all fifty brothers were gathered together. They sucked their noses and red eyes to explain to everyone what happened in Henan.

The oldest lame brother slapped his thigh: "Everyone is raised by his father's biological parents. If we have some food to store, we have to help even if we can't take it off. The patriarch, just say what to do."

"With Shandong Province and Henan Province, it requires countless money and food. I work in our county's household department and know the current financial situation best. Now our Tianji Mansion is in financial difficulties. It is entirely up to the Regent to take out his own family and support him, and he is willing to borrow money from outside for this.

Our Regent is kind to us, and we must do our best to the Regent in difficulties. We have also empathized with the pain of the people of Henan. It is our responsibility to rescue them.

So this time I decided that we wouldn't marry a wife, tighten our belts, and donate all the existing surplus food in our family, except for some of the food and drinks that are enough to eat and drink."

Xinming issued an order to purchase, but Wang Xiaoer took the initiative to donate.

His proposal was thought to be opposed by his brothers.

Because although this family is nominally the head of the family, every 50 brothers has a share.

As a result, more than fifty men nodded without hesitation: "It is the minimum conscience of being a human being. Let's listen to the head of the family, and you can do whatever you say."

This is what brothers are united in their efforts to cut off gold.

Wang Xiaoer looked at Sun Li in front of him with a sorry voice: "I'm sorry, your marriage with the girl in the neighboring village has to be delayed."

Sun Li smiled and said, "What is the head of the family saying? Even if there is no such thing, the head of the family must come first. We have discussed this matter, and this is also the rule of all the merchants. If the rules are broken, then will not make people laugh at me?"

Wang Xiaoer laughed: "It seems that the aunt introduced by the matchmaker to me will have to marry her back next autumn, otherwise it will delay everyone's marriage, and I will be a serious sin."

The woman from the Ministry of Civil Affairs was still loudly introducing the tragic tragedy of Henan on the street.

Wang Xiaoer came back and stood beside her: "Big girl, our prince is in trouble. Our country needs to help the people. We agree. Our family still has some surplus food, so I donate 100 stones."

The people around him also raised their hands to pledge their donations.

The woman from the Ministry of Civil Affairs was surprised at that time: "Mr. Wang, you heard it right. According to the rules of our new dynasty, the country has anything to do and needs anything. No donation is allowed to pay to the people. This time the price given by the country is a price of one stone. There is no need to donate, as long as you are willing to sell as much food to the court as possible, it is support for the court."

"We are willing. Give us a chance to repay the kindness of the Regent." The people shouted.

The person from the Ministry of Civil Affairs smiled and shook his hand: "You should remember the kindness of the Regent first. But the rules cannot be violated, and the laws cannot be destroyed. This is a matter of principle.

If you really want to repay the regent's kindness, everyone will work hard to produce and produce more food. Everyone must be prepared. Once the enemy attacks, we must help the army and court to attack the enemy."

The people applauded: "There is no need to worry about this. Now that we have finally entrusted the grace of the Regent to live a good life, how can we let such a good life be ruined by the enemy?

Once the enemy attacks us, as long as the Regent summons, there will be no ambiguity in the water and fire."

Faced with the people's promises, Wang Xiaoer was really happy for the regent and Xinming.
