Wang Mazi was very happy in recent days, because the days of famine were gone.
He was one of the first people to see Liu county magistrate, and Wang Mazi always had endless gratitude and respect for Liu county magistrate and Wang Mazi. Why the first batch? Because on his way to Youxian, Liu and other refugees stopped the way and asked Liu for food.
As a result, Liu county magistrate cooked porridge for them, and he was full for the first time in several months.
Wang Mazi ate very much and walked very hard because he was worried that he would not have another meal, so he kept eating. But when lying on the ground, Liu county magistrate said that he would raise money for food relief and let them return to you county with him.
Wang Mazi fled with his family. He had already been desperate. He could live a day.
Unexpectedly, Liu county magistrate gave him and his family a chance to live.
Of course, Wang Mazi didn't really believe in Liu county magistrate. Because the last magistrate was used to talking big, but he was not reliable at all.
With the idea of having a try, Wang Mazi and his wife and children went back to the county.
That night, the county really opened Congpeng. Wang Mazi got three bowls of porridge with his wife and children. Although the porridge is not thick, it is hot. After drinking it, the stomach is warm.
That night, Wang Mazi and his family had a good sleep.
When I went to bed, I didn't wake up from hunger.
Soon, Wang Mazi saw the notice of Liu county magistrate recruiting soldiers.
Wang Mazi was very happy when he thought of having food after joining the army. He ran to sign up as fast as he could. However, Wang Mazi was already in his early 40s. He was disqualified in his age and was brushed off.
Wang Mazi was disappointed, so he could only stay in the city, with his wife and children, and live on the porridge tent set up by the government.
On such a day, Wang Mazi was a little disappointed.
It's hard to solve the problem that Liu county magistrate set up Congpeng for disaster relief.
Just when Wang Mazi was lost, the government put up a notice again, recruiting people to open up mountains, cut trees, cultivate farmland, and then open up farmland. As long as you attend, everyone can get a liter of food every day. If you are strong, you can get additional food subsidies.
Wang Mazi was happy and felt that his chance had come.
Sure enough, because of his strong body, he was assigned to the team of felling trees.
At the end of the first day, he got a liter of grain and two liang of wild pork. After he came home with grain and pork, his wife complained for a while, saying that he should not have pork, but should exchange meat for grain.
Wang Mazi listened to his wife's nagging words, but saw that his wife was also happy. County Magistrate Liu has been trying to open up farmland. As long as he keeps on working, he will surely get more food, and he doesn't have to worry about whether he has a meal at home.
So Wang Mazi doesn't think it's a waste to replace two liang pork.
Most importantly, Wang Mazi, a family of four, his wife, a son and a daughter, has not eaten meat for three months.
Two or two pairs of pork on the table, steaming aroma, make a family of four straight swallow saliva.
Wang Mazi did not eat any meat and gave it to his wife and children. He also wanted to eat, but he was very satisfied with the happiness of his wife and children. I'm even more grateful to county magistrate Liu.
In this way, time flies.
Wang Ma Zi worked for three consecutive days and got three liters of grain every day. In addition, he got two extra liters of food. Finally, the family has a little grain in store, and they have some confidence in their hearts.
On the fourth day, when Wang Mazi received the grain, he weighed it over and found that the fixed one liter of grain was less.
Wang Mazi knows the weight of a liter of grain.
But he had only about eight liang of grain in his hand, less than a liter.
Wang Mazi was worried about this, but he thought, maybe he made a mistake. So Wang Mazi didn't make any noise. On the fifth day, Wang Mazi weighed it over again and found that there were only eight liang of grain.
Wang Mazi asked other workers in private, and found that others had the same problem.
It's not a mistake, it's intentional.
Wang Mazi felt bullied and found the person in charge of getting food. The name of the person in charge is Gou Hongyun. He is big and fierce. After hearing Wang Mazi's words, Gou Hongyun didn't say a word. He let people beat Wang Mazi and threatened him to kill him if he dared to make trouble again.
After returning home, Wang Mazi's woman let Wang Mazi swallow his anger.
Although there are only eight liang of fixed food left every day, Wang Mazi has the strength and extra subsidies. There is a lot of food left, more than other people, and his family will not be hungry.
Wang Mazi agreed verbally. The next day, he didn't go to work and went straight to the county government.
He doesn't agree!
He believes that county magistrate Liu will decide for him.
Wang Mazi came to the county government and sounded the drum of grievance.
"Dong! Dong
The drums reverberate in and out of the county government.
In the study, Liu Xiu was stunned when he heard the sound of the drum. After he took office, it was the first time that he heard someone beat the drum to complain. Liu Xiu put on his official uniform and went to the front hall of the county government.After Liu Xiu took his seat, he told the soldiers to call Wang Mazi to the hall.
Wang Mazi fell down on his knees and said, "Wang Mazi, the grass-roots man, meet the magistrate of Liu county."
Liu Xiu asked, "what are your grievances?"
Wang Mazi raised his head and said in a loud voice, "report back to the county magistrate. The grass people are the people who reclaim farmland. In the past two days, we have only received eight liang of grain every day, and there is no one liter at all. Cao min finds Gou Hongyun, who is in charge, but he beat him up. Please make your decision. "
With these words, Wang Mazi took off his shabby clothes.
On Wang Mazi's back and chest, there were purple and blue bruises everywhere, with many scars.
Wang Mazi said, "my Lord, please make the decision for the grass people."
Liu Xiumei frowned and his eyes flashed with cold and fierce color. I didn't expect that just a few days later, there was a situation of grain deduction. If we don't stop this trend, it will certainly affect the great event of farming.
Liu Xiu nodded slightly and said, "get up first. I'll make the decision for you."
"Thank you, my Lord. Thank you, my Lord."
Wang Mazi's eyes showed gratitude. He thought in his heart that if the magistrate of Liu county is willing to make the decision, there must be no problem. Wang Mazi stood up, his eyes full of gratitude.
Liu Xiu cheered: "come on!"
Voice down, Qiu Bao came in, boxing salute.
Yueshan followed Deng Zhan in the barracks, and Qiu Bao stayed in the county government as Liu Xiu's guard.
Liu Xiu said, "go to inform Deng Zhan immediately and ask him to send 100 soldiers to wait outside the south gate. I'll be out of the city right away."
"No!"
Qiu Bao nodded and turned to leave.
Liu Xiu called the Yamen servant and said, "summon Ma Liang, gather all the people in charge of the garrison and all the people in charge, and wait outside the south gate."
"No!"
After the Yamen officer got the order, he went out of the county yamen.
Wang Mazi listened to the orders, and was even more grateful.
Liu Xiu looked at Wang Mazi with a soft tone and said slowly, "Wang Mazi, don't worry. I will make the decision for you."
"Yes, yes, thank you, my Lord."
In Wang Mazi's heart, he was very happy and thought that he had come right.
Liu Xiu also asked the Yamen officer to summon Huo Yun, cen Fei, Kang He and a group of petty officials from the county yamen. When all the people arrived, he took them out of the city.
Huo Yun was confused and didn't know the situation. After asking the Yamen officer, he knew the situation. Huo Yun smiles. He has nothing to do with the matter of withholding grain. He doesn't interfere. He just needs to guarantee his own interests. It's Liu Xiu's business that Liu Xiu is willing to make trouble. Moreover, he and Liu Xiu are still in a very good relationship, so they can't offend Liu Xiu.
Outside the south gate, Deng Zhan was in an array with 100 soldiers.
Liu Xiu and his officials stood in front of the team.
When Ma Liang came to Nanmen, he was organizing people from other schools and people in charge of farming. After all the teams gathered, Ma Liang came to Liu Xiu and said, "my Lord, everyone is here."
Outside the south gate, on the wide flat ground, there are countless black heads. Because after the start of land reclamation, there are still people in you county to register, so more and more people are reclaiming farmland.
