In order to increase his reputation, Zhao Hanzhang went to the scene in person to distribute relief food to everyone.

Relief food is distributed by mile. Because the distance is different, the arrival time of the residents is also different. This is convenient for them to distribute relief food. There will not be many people stuck together, but it can be watched by others.

The first people to receive the relief grains were naturally the people in the city. As soon as the grains arrived and the county government's announcement was posted, the various lili in the city took their citizens to receive the relief grains.

Fu Tinghan calculated the amount of relief food they should receive based on the number of households and people reported by them and the data recorded by the county government. Zhao Hanzhang took the county magistrate Gao to count the grains and personally handed the food to the official.

After they return, Li Zheng will pay the money to each household again.

While distributing the relief grains, Zhao Hanzhang told the people who came to move the grains how much relief grains each person should receive. Children under the age of twelve would be halved, so that each family could calculate the amount of relief grains they deserved.

This was to prevent Li Zheng from misappropriating the relief grain. In addition, she also sent County Magistrate Gao out to inspect, firstly to persuade farmers to teach mulberry farming, and secondly to put an end to this matter.

When it comes to persuading farmers and mulberry farmers to teach, Zhao Hanzhang is doing just that at this time.

Pointing out the grain for relief, Zhao Hanzhang asked the young men to move the grain, while she pulled Li Zheng to talk to the village elder, "The autumn harvest is coming, now is the time when the rice is filling, and the beans are just about to bulge, but we can't let people eat the young crops anymore." ”

She sighed: "I came all the way from Xiping, and I was heartbroken when I saw holes in the fields here and there. If I keep this food for another month, I don't know how much food can be harvested and how many people can live."

Li Zheng and the village elder were convinced, and immediately promised: "Don't worry, Commander, we will persuade them when we get back and we won't let them cut the young crops again."

The village elder said: "I was too hungry and couldn't survive anymore, so I thought about eating green crops. But there is hope, who would want to waste food like that?"

"Fortunately, the county magistrate was kind-hearted and gave relief grain. With this grain, we can have an autumn harvest in one province."

Li Zheng was more informed. Hearing that Aoyang was providing work-for-relief, he asked tentatively: "Jun Cheng, I wonder if we should take advantage of the slack to build water conservancy projects here?"

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Right now, we still focus on farming. When we return to the village, we will ask them to go to the fields to remove weeds and insect pests. It is the rainy season now, and it is not easy to build water conservancy. We will wait until winter comes."

Zhao Hanzhang paused and then said: "Let them not worry too much about the autumn taxes and finish the autumn harvest first. I will write to the governor to reduce some taxes for our Runan County this year."

As soon as these words came out, not only Li Zheng and the village elders, but also the young men who were eavesdropping with their ears lit up, and they all put down their food and bowed to Zhao Hanzhang, "Thank you so much for your life, Jun Cheng."

Zhao Hanzhang hurriedly reached out to support them and sighed: "This is Hanzhang's responsibility, how can I deserve your thanks?"

As soon as these words came out, they were even more moved, and even Li Zheng couldn't help but bend down deeply, "It's really a blessing for us to have a girl as a county magistrate."

Fu Tinghan finished checking the relief grain for one mile, wrote a note and handed it to Wu Erlang, and looked up in the direction of Zhao Hanzhang.

Wu Erlang's eyes were red, and his face was touched and excited. He also said to Fu Tinghan: "Dalangjun, if I can follow the girl, it must be because I have made great merits in my previous life."

At first he thought Fu Tinghan was the master, but now he has been assimilated by Tinghe and started calling Zhao Hanzhang Miss and Fu Tinghan the master.

Fu Tinghan's face was dull, but she couldn't help but smile when she looked at Zhao Hanzhang. She was still like this. She may have used skills and considerations, but she was also sincere.

She always makes people feel her intentions.

Suiping County was bustling for a few days, and Zhao Hanzhang decided to leave only when Li Zheng, who was the furthest mile away, brought Qing Zhuang to receive the relief food.

She and Magistrate Gao would go to the village to inspect the village when they had time, to appease the people and encourage farmers to cultivate mulberry trees.

"It's not too late to do weeding and insecticide now. If we mobilize everyone's enthusiasm, it will be good to get an extra kilogram of grain for the autumn harvest."

County Magistrate Gao should issue the order.

As soon as Zhao Hanzhang left, he took the government servants to the countryside for inspection.

After receiving the relief grains, the people were finally no longer so hungry that they could not walk. The diligent ones had begun to work in the fields. Most people became energetic and began to plan whether to go to the fields to pull out a few grasses. Grass is relatively doha.

As soon as Magistrate Gao arrived, they immediately started moving, even if they just went to the fields to show off.

Magistrate Gao did not leave after looking at it. Instead, he stood at the edge of the field and watched, encouraging them. "The magistrate said, it will be difficult for us to pay the summer taxes this year. Everyone has worked hard. We will pay the autumn taxes this year." , she must write to the governor and subtract some taxes. In this case, we will only pay a little tax after the autumn harvest, and the remaining food will be all ours, and we can survive a good winter by then."

"Is the county gentleman telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, don't you believe the county magistrate?" Magistrate Gao said, "She was able to reduce and reduce taxes for Xiping when she was just the magistrate of Xiping County. Now that she is the county magistrate, she can do it even more."

After hearing this, everyone thought it made sense, so the lazy and perfunctory villagers began to take it seriously. After paying the tax, the extra food was theirs.

As long as it's not the same as the summer tax, where basically all the food has to be handed over, then they are still very motivated.

Suiping County is slowly returning to life, and everyone is working hard to hoe the grass and catch bugs before August to harvest more food.

Suiping County went smoothly, and Zhao Hanzhang went directly to Biyang County.

Biyang County is the most remote county in the southwest corner of Runan County. The county magistrate's surname is Hu. Zhao Hanzhang did not inform him in advance. She took Fu Tinghan and others all the way to the county seat, and also visited the villages and fields along the way.

It's about the same as Suiping County. After all, the taxes paid by Governor He to the counties in Runan County this year are generally heavier, but it's still a little different.

The common people didn't feel much about their county magistrate. When it came to the county magistrate, some people didn't even know his last name.

Since there was no county magistrate to accompany him, Zhao Hanzhang went out of his way to talk to two Li Zhengs, and happened to meet one Li Zheng who was making wine at his home.

Zhao Hanzhang smelled the aroma of wine in the air and couldn't help but look at Li Zheng with starry eyes, "Li Zheng's family is rich, how can he brew such a fine wine."

If you make wine in this village where everyone will starve to death, you will have more food, money and power.

Li Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "The girl is joking. Brewing wine costs food. Although the old man still has some assets in his family, he is just barely surviving in this world. How can he say that his family is rich?"

See you tomorrow
