"Qianqian!"
Li Junyan finally came to his senses and grabbed Sang Jueqian's hand tightly.
"Are you really a goddess in heaven? You won't leave me and return to heaven in the future, right?"
Sang Jueqian did not laugh when he heard Li Junyan's words.
Although these words sounded a bit childish and did not seem like something that could come from Li Junyan's mouth.
But Sang Jueqian knew that this was because Li Junyan was too worried and too nervous.
He was afraid of losing her.
Sang Jueqian held Li Junyan's hand tightly, "Lezhi, even if I am a goddess, I am only your goddess. I will never leave you."
Li Junyan looked at Sang Jueqian deeply and hugged her in his arms.
He hugged her very tightly, as if he wanted to rub Sang Jueqian into his bones and blood.
It was also as if he was afraid that if he let go, Sang Jueqian would disappear.
Sang Jueqian didn't feel any pain. He slowly raised his hand and gently patted his back, silently comforting him.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Junyan finally let go of Sang Jueqian.
Although he was still a little uneasy, he also knew that now was not the time to be sentimental.
There is still a lot for him to do.
Send machines, heating equipment, and warm clothing to each state capital...
These things do not require Sang Jueqian and Li Junyan to complete together.
Not only do we have to deliver the things, but we also have to send people to supervise and distribute all these things into the hands of the people.
Throughout history, no matter what kind of disaster it is, the emperor is always sincere when providing disaster relief.
Because he didn't want the people to be displaced and didn't want the country to be in turmoil. Only when the people are safe can the country be stable.
However, when the order was issued and the money and food were allocated, they would be exploited by the officials below.
Only one in ten will eventually reach the hands of the people.
So many emperors throughout history, don’t they know this?
Of course they know.
Even if you haven't experienced it yourself, you've seen it in history books.
But what can we do?
Human nature has always been like this, and corrupt officials are everywhere.
High-ranking officials are greedy for big things, and low-ranking officials are greedy for small things.
Even if we have censors watching all the time, we cannot ensure that no one will embezzle.
For the emperor, it was already very good if the people could get one-tenth or one-twelfth of the income.
But this was the request of another emperor.
Now, with Sang Jueqian's help, Li Junyan can travel between various prefectures and send his subordinates to various prefectures through portals.
With them watching, Li Junyan would punish anyone who dared to embezzle even a little bit, let alone one or two out of ten.
In just half a month, the lives of the people in the Great Zhou Dynasty have been greatly improved.
It didn't snow all the time during this half month.
But the weather didn't clear up.
It snows every few days and the temperature is getting lower and lower.
The snow outside was frozen hard and it was not easy to clean up.
Fortunately, Sang Jueqian asked Jin Yuandong to buy a snowplow, and they have all been stored in the space.
The quantity purchased is limited, and each state can only be allocated five units.
Five drivers were also sent there at the same time.
These people cleared the snow from the roads day and night.
Not only was the snow on the main roads in the city cleared, but even the main roads outside the city leading to various counties, villages and towns were cleared.
There is no shrine to the goddess in the county town or villages, so there is no way to get there directly. We can only clear the road first so that supplies can be delivered.
Sang Jueqian and Li Junyan were not idle either. After all, Sang Jueqian had space, which made it more convenient for him to deliver supplies, so he would also go to the county town or towns.
This time, we went to a more remote village.
On the road, everything was white and it was impossible to tell where the road was and where the field was.
Although there is a map, it is only better than nothing.
Because I didn't know where the ditches were, I didn't dare drive too fast on the road and could only grope my way slowly.
It took three or four hours to finally reach the village.
It was already dark at this time and it was almost night.
Because Sang Jueqian was there, there was no need for anyone to escort the supplies, so not many people came.
Apart from Li Junyan and Sang Jueqian, there were only the guards driving the car and Lin Qi.
When the four of them appeared outside the village, they immediately attracted the villagers.
Several men wrapped tightly in blankets immediately rushed out of the house, holding farm tools in their hands and their eyes full of vigilance.
"Who are you?"
The other party asked, his voice trembling, obviously afraid.
Lin Qi got out of the car, stood on it, and took out the token. "Don't panic, we are from the imperial court. We are here to distribute disaster relief supplies to you."
Upon hearing this, the men looked at each other in confusion, their eyes filled with surprise and doubt, none of them really believed what Lin Qi said.
After a long while, someone finally asked, "Will the imperial court really send us supplies? Why haven't I heard of this before? It's been snowing for so long, why are you just starting to arrive...Are you guys scammers? Are you planning to break into our village and steal our food?"
"What is this thing? Why is it running on its own? Why have I never seen it before?"
"There are only four of you. Where can you find any supplies? You must be scammers. Leave quickly, or don't blame us for being rude."
Listening to their words, Lin Qi felt at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
