Chapter 41 A grain of rice can live all peoples(2/2)
"Exactly." Zhao Guang nodded and said with a smile, "The county magistrate is a kind-hearted person, so naturally he cannot bear the suffering of the people."
He also received a summons from Cui Heng and learned of the decision to release grain.
"But King Yan's army is coming!" Fang Min said anxiously, "How can we defend the city if we release grain now? If we persist for too short a time, we may not even have room for negotiation, and the entire city may suffer.
The disaster of war..."
Even if a top expert attacks King Yan's rear, it will still take time.
This requires Juhe County to hold on for a while.
"Senior sister, I heard that there are three to four thousand victims outside." Zhou Caiwei suddenly said, "If the county magistrate doesn't release food, they will all starve to death."
"Having said that, but..." Fang Min hesitated, she didn't know what to do in this situation.
"This county magistrate is very smart." Zhou Caiwei said with a smile, "I think since he decided to do this, he must have prepared a back-up plan, and he will never be short of food while defending the city."
"Junior sister, you are so confident?" Fang Min said in surprise.
"Senior sister, have you forgotten?" Zhou Caiwei said with a smile, "When we were inquiring about the news earlier, you were shocked when you heard the various actions taken by the county magistrate. Such a powerful person will definitely consider all aspects.
It’s a question.”
"..." Fang Min fell silent after hearing this, and then saluted and apologized to Zhao Guang, "Master Zhao, I was a little impatient just now and was a little disrespectful to the county magistrate. Please forgive me."
"Actually, the county magistrate has already predicted that the girl will feel anxious." Zhao Guang said with a smile, "and told me that if the girl has any doubts, she can ask him in person tomorrow."
Fang Min was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but sigh: "Your Excellency, the county magistrate, knows things like a god."
…
Inside the Juhe County Yamen.
Lu Zhengming looked at the account book of the granary in his hand with a wry face, and said with a wry smile: "Your Excellency, there are not even a few kilograms of grain in the official granary, which is not enough to help three or four thousand people."
The grain previously seized from the Huang family was basically distributed to the people. There was no growth in the granary and it was still at the original bottom level.
