Even Lin Ruhai was a little frightened, but he was not panicked.

After all, he, who has been in frequent contact with Jia Rong, knows that at least Jia Rong has no objections at the moment, and knowing this is enough.

As for more, there is no need to worry too much, just watch.

To be honest, the horse-drawn track is quite convenient, but it is not in the hands of the government, which somewhat makes the local officials feel inappropriate.

But the powerful people who own the coal mines are all their own people.

If the people developing the coal mines were all businessmen, it is estimated that the officials in Jin Province would not let it go so easily.

Even the government granaries of Jin Province have more or less problems, which have little impact on the overall situation of Jin Province.

It's not that food is suddenly unimportant, but that large and medium-sized coal mines have their own food input channels, and the quantities are absolutely disappointing to the young people in Shanxi Province.

With so much grain imported, even if very little grain flows out of the coal mines, it will still suppress the potential take-off of grain prices.

So a strange scene occurred. It was clear that both neighboring provinces were suffering from severe drought, but the specific conditions in the two provinces were very different.

Naturally, there is no politeness today, because the disaster has caused a lot of distress, so I will reward and punish what is deserved, without mercy at all.

Lin Ruhai was not promoted, but he had an extra spot on his hands.

In other words, if he is willing to recommend it, even Bai Ding can directly become a member of the officialdom.

Not only that, there is also an additional quota for direct recommendation to enter the Imperial College as a supervisor.

For Lin Ruhai, such rewards are dispensable.

When the time came for Jia Rong's "Surprise" to be published, there were already a few sporadic light rains in the north.

Although the rainfall is not large, it is as precious as nectar to the north, which has been suffering from drought for a long time.

Apart from anything else, there is still some hope of saving some replanted grain.

But the situation in the south is getting worse.

After all, summer is the flood season for various rivers in the south. Although the continuous rain is not so fierce, it cannot last for a long time.

Coupled with the frequent occurrence of various problems with local water conservancy facilities, the number of embankments is no longer one or two, and the great losses suffered by local people can be imagined.

It can only be said that the officialdom in the south is very abnormal. Once trouble occurs, all its shortcomings are exposed.

Even if several imperial ministers were sent from the capital, armed with Shang Fang's sword and killing heads, they could not stop the flooding.

Yes, now that the government is ruthless, the officialdom in the south has been purged so tragically.

The key is that, after all of them have reached this level, there are still a lot of unscrupulous businessmen who collude with local officials to hoard goods and drive up prices.

At the local level, land annexation has become more and more intense, and in some places there have even been appalling incidents such as open robberies.

The originally prosperous South was hit by successive floods, and a large number of refugees appeared, and local order was seriously affected.

There have even been major incidents of killing officials and rebelling in some places.

It is no exaggeration at all. The richer the place, the more moths there are.

It would be okay if the government had effective control, but many officials turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye to the suffering of the people.

On the contrary, he actively participated in the action of carving up people's wealth. The situation will only get worse. The official leaders in the south don't know how to end it.

To be honest, at this time, the people in the south were living a more miserable life than the victims in the north.

In the north, Jia Rong led the Founding Group and did a lot of serious things, helping the court alleviate too many troubles, and the victims also received good arrangements.

The main reason is that the government is running effectively. Although there have been various cases of making money from disasters, at least there has not been a big scene where millions of refugees gathered...
