……
As he spoke, the flying chariot had slowly landed outside the gate of Changning Weidong City.
"唳~"
The red-crowned crane flapped its wings, gracefully stopped on the yellow mud ground, raised its head and let out a soft cry.
The car that had been chattering before suddenly became quiet. The three core disciples, including Ji Mingyu, subconsciously arranged their clothes and put on their best looks.
"Let's go~"
Fang Youan led the crowd out of the car.
It was cloudy and the light outside the city was not good, but the appearance of the four of them still made people feel bright.
Whether it is appearance or temperament, the four of them are all the best among people, especially their high-spirited posture and flying spirit, which makes it easy for people to fall in love with them.
There is no doubt that each of them is the pride of heaven.
Especially the leader, Fang Youan, has an outstanding temperament and a detached bearing. Standing in a crowd, he feels like he stands out from the crowd. Just talk about the bearing of the city guard who is in the realm of heaven and human beings. Even worse than him.
Many heads of aristocratic families present could not help but feel a touch of emotion and envy in their eyes, and they suddenly felt like "it would be great if our family could have such a talented person".
Even Huangfu Jinhuan, the head of the Huangfu family of the Celestial Family, and the head of the Celestial Lei family are no exception.
It was them?
In the crowd, Wang Shouzhe raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
He had also thought about who the direct disciple coming to the academy this time would be? But he didn't expect that it would be Fang Youan and the others.
But after thinking about it, it makes sense.
There are not many idle disciples in Zifu Academy, so it is reasonable for Fang Youan to take some junior brothers and sisters to do a large-scale mission.
While he was thinking about it.
The city guard, Xia Houhong, had already taken the lead to greet him with a smile on his face. He cupped his hands and said, "You are the proud sons of Zifu Academy, right? I am the city guard of Changning City, and the city guard Xia Houhong Virtue. I have met all the geniuses in the academy. I apologize for missing you from afar."
After that, he also took out his identity token for the other party to detect.
Fang Youan also followed the rules and scanned the identity token with his spiritual sense. After confirming the identity of the other party, he politely returned the greeting and said: "You are so polite, Lord City Guard. I am from Zifu. Fang Youan, Xuanbing Palace of the Academy, and all the junior brothers and sisters were ordered to come to the Changning Guard area to assist you adults in managing the disaster."
While speaking, he also took out the token and the appointment document jointly issued by the Zifu Academy and the County Sheriff's Mansion.
Xiahou Hongde did not dare to neglect, but he followed the rules and carefully checked the token and appointment documents.
After confirming that there was no problem, he saluted with an increasingly respectful expression: "I pay my respects to the Chief Inspector and all the Inspectors."
Whether it is the other party's appointment position or his status as a direct disciple of the academy, he cannot afford to slack off in the slightest.
Let’s not talk about the Chief Inspector Fang Youan, who has an unfathomable level of cultivation at a young age. Behind him is the one standing in the Xuanbing Palace... among all the masters of the Purple Mansion in the Academy. , that one is definitely not someone to be trifled with.
Furthermore, he has also heard that the individual disciples of the Xuanbing Palace lineage in Zifu Academy are very powerful in combat. The core disciples are all extraordinary generals, not to mention a celestial being. He became a disciple from a close relationship. How can he be allowed to look down upon?
"Lord City Guard, you are very polite. You are a senior, just call me You'an." Fang You'an has a gentlemanly demeanor and is a rare good-tempered master of Xuanbing Palace.
"How dare you, Governor You'an." After a brief exchange of greetings, Xiahou Hongde said, "I will first introduce to the Governor the heads of the families of our Changning Guard."
As soon as he finished speaking.
The two clan leaders of the Tianren Lei clan and the Tianren Huangfu clan, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately walked up with smiles on their faces, followed by the other clan heads.
It is very rare for a big figure of the level of a direct disciple of Zifu Academy to visit Changning Guard. If you are lucky enough to be able to establish a relationship with him and form a good relationship, it will be beneficial to the family.
As for Wang Shouzhe, his movements were half a beat slower and he fell to the end.
His in-law and ally families are not particularly active either. After all, they followed Wang Shouzhe and had seen a lot recently.
Although the direct disciples of the Academy have a noble status, they are not easy to win over. It is most practical to hug Shouzhe's thigh tightly.
"General Inspector You'an, distinguished inspectors. These two are Lei Qiuwei, the chief of the Lei clan of Tianren, and Huangfu Jinhuan of the Huangfu clan of Tianren."
According to the rules, Xiahou Hongde first introduced the two celestial families.
Lei Qiuwei and Huangfu Jinhuan immediately raised their hands with smiles on their faces and said, "I have met the Chief Inspector and all the Inspectors."
Fang Youan is not the kind of person who doesn't like the fireworks of the world. He understands that to handle local affairs, he has to rely on local powerful people, so naturally he will not neglect them with a high regard.
He was just about to return the favor and introduce his junior brothers and sisters.
Suddenly.
Senior Brother Yangde shouted: "Isn't that Junior Brother Shouzhe?"
Junior Brother Shouzhe?
As soon as this statement came out, it attracted everyone's attention.
Fang Youan also saw Wang Shouzhe behind the crowd.
He was slightly stunned, a little happy, and immediately raised his hands towards Lei Qiuwei and Huangfu Jinhuan, and said apologetically: "Two, I'm sorry for now. I ran into an acquaintance, so I went to say hello first."
Led by Fang Youan, all the Xuanbing Temple disciples walked towards Wang Shouzhe with smiles on their faces. Wherever he passed, everyone in Changning Guard gave way.
Wang Shouzhe took the lead in saluting before Fang Youan could speak: "Shouzhe has met senior brother Youan, all the senior brothers, and this senior sister."
Fang Youan returned the gift gently: "Junior Brother Shouzhe, it has been more than two months since we had a hurried farewell in the academy. I didn't expect to meet again under such circumstances."
Ji Mingyu, Li Yangde, and another core female disciple Qian Cailing also hurriedly returned the favor, shouting "Junior Brother Shouzhe".
They all also know that Wang Shouzhe is the registered disciple of Master Changchun.
Although the word "registered" was mentioned, they all knew that it was a helpless move. As long as Wang Shouzhe was willing, Master Changchun could accept him as his direct disciple at any time.
Moreover, they take it for granted. This Junior Brother Shouzhe is far less than thirty years old and can defeat Ji Mingyu at such a young age. Even if he were to join the Xuanbing Palace, their master, Master Binglan, would probably accept him as his successor.
This is the ethos of the academy, no matter one’s origins. If you are not strong enough, even if you are born in the Zifu family, some core disciples and direct disciples will not take you too seriously.
But someone like Wang Shouzhe earned his position purely by relying on his own strength. Even Ji Mingyu admired him so much that he did not dare to fight again.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Wang Shouzhe also learned their names and greeted them: "Brother Yangde, Senior Sister Cailing. After this matter is over, don't leave in a hurry. Let Shouzhe take care of himself." Entertain entertain."
Seeing that they were so familiar with each other, the expressions of each eighth-grade aristocratic family became a little subtle. The in-laws and allies were naturally happy, while the others had slightly complicated expressions.
Lei Qiuwei and Huangfu Jinhuan, the heads of the two heavenly and human families, were obviously embarrassed.
They rushed to the front, wanting to get closer to the water and win the moon first, and to curry favor with the core disciples of the academy, but they did not expect that they would be so familiar with Wang Shouzhe and have such a close relationship.
Even the city guard, Xiahou Hongde, was stunned for a long time before he stepped forward and said with a smile: "It turns out that Patriarch Shouzhe is so familiar with all the Lords Shangfeng, which is really enviable. However, this is not the place to talk. , I have prepared a banquet in Baiwei Pavilion to welcome all the Lords of Shangfeng."
Obviously he also saw the embarrassment of other families and couldn't help but take action to resolve it.
At the same time, Wang Shouzhe's status in his mind had invisibly increased by several levels. It seems that some of the academy information he received was not comprehensive, and he underestimated Wang Shouzhe after all!
Fang Youan and others would not refute Xiahou Hongde's face, so they followed Jian Ruliu and entered the city with everyone.
After the city defense camp opened the way, the group went straight to Baiwei Pavilion.
Of course, the Baiweige Pavilion in Changningwei is still far from comparable to the Baiweige Headquarters in Longzuo County.
When they arrived at Baiwei Pavilion, they found that Qian Xue'an, the shopkeeper of Chang Ningwei Branch of Qian's Commercial Bank, was already guarding the door.
He was showing off his growing belly, like Maitreya Buddha, and smiled to greet Fang Youan and the core disciples of Zifu Academy.
When he saw Qian Cailing, he bowed deeply and shouted, "Xue'an has met Aunt Cailing."
"It turns out it's Xue'an." Qian Cailing looked him up and down, "I haven't seen you in the past two or three years and you've gained weight again. It turns out you are also in Changning Guard."
Qian Cailing remembers Qian Xue'an very deeply.
Originally he was just an inconspicuous bastard, but now he is getting better and better. He has made great contributions to the family several times, and even the ancestors of the family have mentioned his name twice.
What an honor is this? Even Qian Cailing, the core disciple of the prestigious academy, was becoming more and more impressed by Qian Xue'an.
Of course, this is also because Qian Xue'an is very good at sneaking into the academy. When he gets an opportunity, he will go to the academy every two or three years.
She, Qian Cailing, also received money to learn the benefits, so she was naturally very impressed.
This little conversation sounds like nothing. But the heads of the families in Changningwei couldn't help but look stern again, and their hearts became a little more solemn.
I feel that among the few core disciples in the academy, this female core disciple named Qian Cailing seems to be the most inconspicuous, but I didn't expect that she was actually from the Qian family.
In the entire Longzuo County, the Qian family is a famous fifth-grade Zifu family, with a very prominent position that almost no one dares to offend.
Even Wang Shouzhe cast a few more glances at Qian Cailing, but he didn't expect that senior Cailing was Qian Xuean's aunt.
Zifu Academy is indeed a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers are hidden.
In other words, the Longzuo Qian family's background is indeed extremely rich.
Afterwards, there was naturally a warm welcome. With the presence of Qian Xue'an, a long-sleeved dancer, the atmosphere became much more lively.
After three rounds of drinking.
Fang Youan's face straightened, he cupped his hands towards the seats at the banquet and said: "Everyone, I have eaten the food and drank the wine, but the disaster cannot be slacked off. I, Fang Youan, have been entrusted by the County Sheriff's Office and the Academy. I have come to inspect and quell the disaster, and I need to ask for your help from all of you here. Lord City Guard, I just saw a lot of refugees gathering near Changning Guard from the air. Is there any proper arrangement for this matter?"
As soon as business was mentioned, everyone’s expressions became serious.
Xiahou Hongde said with a solemn expression: "This time the disaster in the middle and lower reaches of Anjiang River was very serious, and many refugees came to the east. Because only 30% of our Changning Guard area was affected by the disaster, many refugees gathered in Changning Guard and refused to leave. I Many temporary refugee camps have been ordered to be built, and granaries have also been opened to provide food to the refugees. However, the number of refugees is increasing, and our Changningwei warehouse has limited food storage, and sooner or later we will be unable to cope with it."
Fang Youan's brows furrowed: "This time, several of our senior brothers went first, and some junior brothers and sisters came overland to collect food and grass along the way, but I'm afraid that water from far away can't quench the thirst of nearby people, and we still need the strength of our local aristocratic families. Contribute."
As soon as this was said, everyone was silent for a while.
Ningxi Dangshi Dang Zhenghe said with a wry smile: "General Inspector, our Ningxi Dangshi has been completely flooded, and the tenant farmers and civilians in the jurisdiction have all fled to the area under the jurisdiction of Linzhen. This time If we don’t get rescue, I’m afraid our party members will..."
The other aristocratic families also had bitter expressions on their faces, indicating that it was not the harvest season. Every family and clan was relying on surplus grain to survive, and every family and clan also suffered considerable losses.
"Food is okay," said Qian Xue'an of Qian's Trading Company. "I can still raise some and can cope with it in a short time. The problem is that more and more refugees are gathering. Is it difficult to drive them to other places? ?As far as I know, the disaster in the two acropolis in Zhenze, Dingnan, upstream of us, is even more serious. Countless fields and houses were washed away, especially Zhenze Wei, which is still in a vast ocean, with countless casualties. Those who survived The common tenant farmers may all be homeless."
"Hmph!" Fang Youan's eyes flashed with murderous intent, "Dingnan and Zhenze guards have neglected flood control on weekdays, which resulted in this disaster. I'm afraid the good days of those two city guards have come to an end. . Putting this matter aside for the time being, those refugees have to ask the noble families to find a way to resettle them."
As soon as these words came out, all the aristocratic families were silent for a while, each thinking and thinking in their hearts.
Wang Shouzhe knew that it was not their fault.
After hundreds of years of development in Changningwei, most of the aristocratic families’ territories have reached a state of saturation. Increasing the number of tenant farmers and laborers will not bring significant growth to the economy. Instead, it will increase various consumption and create burdens.
However, Fang Youan's reputation cannot be refuted at will. He comes with the title of "General Inspector".
Even though he is so gentle and talkative now, he is really going to make him angry. He might just kill an eighth-grade family to scare the monkeys.
After thinking for a while, all the family heads began to express their opinions. Your family will accept one or two thousand refugees, and my family will accept two thousand refugees. Although we have tried our best, compared with the large number of refugee resettlement, it is still a drop in the bucket.
Some people even mentioned whether Donghaiwei or other guards could also accept some refugees.
At this time, Huangfu Jinhuan stood up and said: "Our Huangfu family is willing to accept the resettlement of five thousand refugees."
Lei Qiuwei also said hastily: "We, the Lei family, are also willing to accept five thousand refugees."
In this way, Fang Youan's face relaxed a lot, at least the powerful people in these places were not just trying to shirk the blame.
"Senior Brother You'an." Wang Shouzhe thought for a while, stood up and said, "Our Ping'an Town is willing to accept 40,000 refugees for resettlement."
What?
Forty thousand refugees? !
Everyone was shocked, and their eyes were fixed on Wang Shouzhe, with a look of disbelief on their faces.
Wang Shouzhe was filled with regret.
If he hadn't been unable to digest it for a while, he really wanted to wrap up all the refugees. Because of Wang’s next series of development plans, the larger the population required, the better.
