Chapter 81 Lu Wanyin, you are my biological father.
"Of course."
Lu Wanyin asked Xuan Qi to continue going to the county government office.
Ren Mingyuan had told the concierge early in the morning that a distinguished guest was coming to deliver seeds. After Xuan Qi announced his purpose, the concierge immediately and respectfully welcomed them in.
"General, madam!"
Ren Mingyuan was very happy. He deliberately stayed at home today to wait for Lu Wanyin to come.
Lu Wanyin said that the seeds were still on the way, and when they arrived later, Ren Mingyuan would take people to move them.
After all, they just told us yesterday that there were seeds, and now they are right in front of us. Not everyone is like Xie Jingci, who has a strong ability to accept things.
Ren Mingyuan thanked him profusely again.
Lu Wanyin raised her hand to stop him and took the initiative to bring up the matter of distributing porridge: "By the way, Mr. Ren, I just came here and saw many people pretending to be porridge. I have a way, do you want to listen to it?"
Ren Mingyuan was worried about this matter, but he didn't expect Lu Wanyin to bring it up on her own initiative.
He immediately said humbly, "Madam, please speak."
Lu Wanyin said, "Have the person cooking the porridge sprinkle some sand or other dirty stuff into the porridge in public. It won't kill you or make you sick, but it will make it a little dirty and affect the taste."
When these words came out, Ren Mingyuan thought he had heard wrongly.
"At the same time, spread the word that the government office is running low on rice, and starting tomorrow, half of the porridge will be made with bran."
This time, even Xuan Qi frowned. "Madam, this is no joke. The refugees already harbor resentment towards Master Ren. If you ask him to do this, the refugees will surely overturn the porridge stall!"
Bran is used to feed chickens and pigs.
Qi County was not poor to begin with, and the people lived a pretty good life, although the previous county magistrate had levied taxes frantically, and coupled with this mountain flood, they were indeed caught off guard.
But considering the grain reserves of the government office, it is impossible for them to have to eat bran!
Ren Mingyuan was silent for a moment; he felt the same way.
But based on his brief understanding of Lu Wanyin, he always felt that she was not such a reckless person.
"Just do as the lady says."
The first person to agree was Xie Jingci, who said with admiration, "This method will definitely work."
Since even Xie Jingci said so, Ren Mingyuan stopped hesitating and quickly called his advisor to give orders.
When the master heard this, his face changed drastically: "No, sir!"
He thought Ren Mingyuan was crazy because he spent his entire fortune buying seeds from Lu Wanyin yesterday.
Today is even more so, there is no craziest, only crazier.
Ren Mingyuan said helplessly, "Go ahead. I'll take responsibility for any consequences."
Seeing how persistent he was, the master sighed deeply and gave Lu Wanyin a meaningful look before leaving.
Whenever this woman gets close to his master, something bad will happen.
Lu Wanyin ignored him and said, "We have something else to do, so we'll take our leave now. My Lord, please remember to send someone to vaccinate the seed on time."
Ren Mingyuan nodded. "I still have things to deal with at the county government office, so I won't see you off. I hope the general and his wife won't mind."
"No, go get busy."
The county government had to clean up the mess left by the previous county magistrate and deal with the refugee issue, and was in a state of panic.
When Lu Wanyin and the other two came out of the county government office, Xuan Qi looked anxiously towards the nearest porridge stall.
Lu Wanyin knew that he wanted to see it, so she didn't leave in a hurry. She stopped by the roadside and planned her next route in her mind.
The person in charge of cooking porridge was also shocked when he heard Ren Mingyuan's order.
Knowing that this order could not be disobeyed, he could only make a bitter face and accidentally "knock over" the porridge bucket.
Suddenly there was a cry of grief.
"How do you do this? This is saving our lives!"
"That's right! Believe it or not, we'll report you to the county government and make sure you're in big trouble!"
The two refugees who accused the man were holding two large bowls in their hands. Although their clothes were old, they were not torn.
He was full of energy and didn't look like a refugee who had been hungry for a long time.
Xuan Qi said, "These are the people who are claiming the credit. How despicable! Madam, is it really possible? Look at the commotion they're making!"
Xie Jingci glanced at him and said, "Keep watching."
The man quickly picked up the porridge bucket and threw the porridge on the ground into the bucket.
"What are you doing? How can we eat if it's so dirty?"
The people who had just shouted loudly became angry immediately and cursed that they would go to the county government office to find Ren Mingyuan to take charge.
The guard in charge of giving the order drew his sword and blocked the way: "There's only so much rice left in the county government office, and the relief money from the court hasn't arrived yet! Do you want to leave quickly? Don't delay the people behind you!"
Seeing the knife, the arrogance of the troublemakers subsided a lot: "You can't let us eat such dirty things!"
The guard glanced at the back of the team and asked loudly, "Who else doesn't want to eat?"
"I'll eat it! Sir, I don't mind the dirt!"
An old lady in ragged clothes held a broken bowl and said tremblingly, "Sir, if you don't want their share, can you give me some too? My little grandson is hungry too."
"Sir, we eat too, and we don't mind."
Seeing this, the people who had caused trouble earlier could only leave cursing.
The queue was suddenly reduced to nearly half its size, and everyone was waiting quietly for their porridge.
Seeing this, Xuan Qi finally understood.
He looked at Lu Wanyin with admiration: "Madam, you are so smart! Real refugees don't care about this kind of dirty stuff at all. Even if bran is added to the porridge, it will just taste a little bit worse, but it will fill your stomach. Only those fake refugees who take advantage of the opportunity to get a bargain will dislike it."
Lu Wanyin raised an eyebrow. How could the method used by the corrupt official Heshen not be clever?
She clapped her hands, concealing her achievements and fame, and said, "Now you can rest assured. Let's go. It's time to get to work."
Xuan Qi was completely convinced this time.
He looked at Lu Wanyin's back as she walked in front of him and said sincerely, "General, no wonder you told us to listen to your wife at the beginning."
Xie Jingci patted Xuan Qi's shoulder, not hiding his pride at all: "Follow your sister Lu, you will have a good life."
Xuan Qi was confused.
What is Sister Lu's name?
Lu Wanyin bought a lot of local snacks and cakes, as well as some things that were not in the space.
It was almost time, Lu Wanyin said she was going to vaccinate the seed, and Xie Jingci was responsible for fooling Xuan Qi.
Once Ren Mingyuan and his men take the seeds away, today's mission will be completed.
"Madam, I still want to eat hot pot tonight."
Xuan Qi didn't doubt it at all and even ordered some dishes.
Lu Wanyin nodded. It was a cold day, and eating some hot pot was just right to warm up the body.
After returning to the post station, Xuan Qi and the others were responsible for preparing the ingredients, while Lu Wanyin went to find Mo Yu.
"You've been staring at me like this all day, can you please go away and let me go to the bathroom?"
As soon as I arrived, I heard Hou Yuanji's bitter voice: "If you don't go now, I, the eldest son of the Marquis's family, will wet my pants."
Lu Wanyin couldn't help but burst out laughing.
When I entered the room, I saw Hou Yuanji squatting on the table with his face green.
"Moyu, come here!"
Upon hearing this voice, Hou Yuanji looked over with tears in his eyes: "Lu Wanyin, you really are my father!"
