Don't panic, nephew. I will take this pot of evil star.
Chapter 205 Are they all here to eat and do nothing?
The Chaotian Market in Bianlu City officially opened at nightfall, and merchants and vendors from various cities filled all the major streets in the city.
There are fruits, tea, snacks, various toys, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and even flowers and herbs for sale, as well as various opera troupes and acrobatics. It is simply enough to eat, drink and have fun on this street.
But in such a huge city like Bianlu, not everyone can do these big or small jobs. A considerable number of people can only survive in the cracks, and it is common for them to not have enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear.
Those who shop at the market and those who have goods to sell at the market seem to be separated from some people by a chasm.
Mu Lanxun suggested asking these people to repair the canal. After all, it is physical work and does not require high technical skills, but the project is large and the time is tight, so a lot of manpower is needed.
The prefect made arrangements silently. Once the recruitment order was issued, thousands of people were attracted in the blink of an eye. A dense crowd of people crowded around the edge of the Chungai Reservoir.
These people are ragged and skinny, looking like people who don't have enough food to eat every day, and now they are doing these hard labors for a few cents.
It turns out that there are still so many people in the city who cannot get enough food every day. Lu Yanlin's whole body was stiff and his face felt hot. He glanced at Mu Lanxun, who had his eyes downcast and didn't know what he was thinking.
As a result, the Chaotian Market in Bianlu City was bustling with people, while secretly the reinforcement of the reservoir and the construction of canals in the surrounding area were carried out day and night.
The water officials in the city immediately noticed what was going on.
Not long ago, a small boss came and ran around Chungai several times with an inexperienced look on his face. His astonished expression is still vivid in my mind!
After just a few days of not seeing each other, someone came to reinforce the project that they had just "reinforced" not long ago. Isn't this a slap in the face?
What does Lord Lu mean? Are you saying that the people in the Water Department are just sitting there doing nothing?
Lu Yanlin looked with a headache at the several water officials blocking him, each with a gloomy face.
"The Minister of Works from Ya'an City is here to inspect the Chungai Reservoir under the Emperor's order. He holds the Imperial Order, and I am helpless."
The officials secretly exchanged glances, and a bad premonition arose in their hearts.
After hurriedly bidding farewell to the prefect, they all returned to their own residences. Soon, some of them slammed the tables and broke them.
Damn it! The account book is gone!
Some of the withheld repair funds were actually diverted away.
Could it really be that person in charge who did it?
A few of them couldn't wait and secretly made an appointment to go out in the middle of the night.
"Lord Li, what's going on?" The man in black brocade clothes looked frightened.
He had only secretly recorded a few accounts of their transactions, and no one knew about it, but those few pages of paper suddenly disappeared, and he immediately panicked.
He was only responsible for contacting the registration of funds, but he was dragged into this situation. It was really unfair!
Lord Li exchanged a glance with the others and realized that everyone had lost some "things" at home, to a greater or lesser extent.
"Don't worry, I recognize the master in charge. He is not from Shangli Country at all. No one in the court will stand on his side."
He looked at the gate with a sinister look and lowered his voice.
"No matter what his reason is for repairing the reservoir again this time, as long as the reservoir is safe in the future, everything he is doing now will be in vain."
Reinforcement? We just finished reinforcing and he comes again?
Hehehe...
