Chapter 209
Chapter 209
With a broken face, Wei Shan ran back to Liu Xun with the food box.
When Liu Xun saw him, he immediately asked urgently, "How is it? Did he eat? What did he tell you?"
"Didn't eat!" Wei Shan opened the food box, revealing the plate of stewed beef and white rice again.
Liu Xun was surprised and said, "Why! You don't even want to eat this? It's delicious to eat this dish in my house yesterday? Didn't he say he wants to eat beef?"
"Is this person pretending?"
Liu Xun couldn't help but start thinking wildly.
Wei Shan immediately said dejectedly: "Oh, master, people despise this stewed beef as unpalatable."
"On weekdays, I only eat heifers for three months in the capital, and I only eat the tenderest beef tenderloin!"
"And the noodles and eggplants they eat have to use more than a dozen chickens as condiments, otherwise they don't want to eat a bite at all!"
Liu Xun looked at Wei Shan suspiciously: "Fart! What kind of eggplant and noodles should be served with more than a dozen chickens! I think he seems to be cheating on you."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Master, don't worry, Wei Shan has been with you for so many years! I have met many people."
"I'm sure I can tell if what he said is true or not!"
"He not only said what to eat, but also how to eat it clearly! It can be seen that this is the only way to eat every day. Otherwise, how can a high-ranking official have the time to study food?"
Wei Shan's face was full of swearing, Liu Xun couldn't help but believe it, and murmured: "My God... Could it be that the palace is already so luxurious, I didn't feel it the last time I went to Beijing."
"No! Fang Zhengyi must have misled the prince, extravagant! Really extravagant!"
"Fang Zhengyi must have lived here like a year, hehe."
Wei Shan sighed: "Master, what do you think a dozen chickens taste like with an eggplant?"
Liu Xun opened his mouth in embarrassment, thinking about how luxurious he was!Annoyed and angry: "Shut up! You dog slave knows how to eat! What else did Fang Zhengyi say?"
Wei Shan thought for a while, and said: "Oh, he also said that he likes to eat and money all his life, I'm afraid he will end his life in Jianjiang, it's hard!"
After hearing this, Liu Xun was overjoyed, but said with disdain on his face: "If such a spendthrift person doesn't have money to support him, he might not be able to live for a day."
"Okay, it's useless for you, go down!"
After Wei Shan left, Liu Xun was still thinking about it, and after much deliberation, he decided to go to Fang Zhengyi's place to experience it himself.
Otherwise, I always feel that I have no idea to win him over rashly.
While thinking about it, Liu Xun walked towards the house.
At this moment, Fangzheng was looking through the account books in the household boredly, and suddenly saw Liu Xun coming, and immediately got up and said, "I have met Mr. Liu, sir."
"Okay, sit down." Liu Xun waved his hands kindly.
"Xiao Fang, what's the matter, isn't the food that the government sent you not to your taste?"
Xiao Fang called Nima!You are an old man, just go up the steps!
Fangzheng put on a half-smile: "Thank you Lord Liu for your kindness, I really don't feel very hungry."
"Oh? So that's the case. If you have any questions, you can ask the government together." Liu Xun still stroked his beard with a leisurely expression.
"There's nothing to see. Under Mr. Liu's management, the Jianjiang Mansion is in perfect order. The officials almost have nothing to do, haha."
"However... since the lower official has nothing to do, he is thinking of going outside the city to see how the victims are doing."
"Both public and private are the duties of the lower officials. If the lower officials don't even look at it, it would be a bit too much!"
Fangzheng wanted to go out of the city to inspect it early in the morning. When he entered the city last time, he took a quick look at it, but he didn't see the details.
Liu Xun said: "Okay! Okay, I'm fine now, why don't we go together?"
"It's a great honor to be an official, let's go together! Let's go together!"
"Well, just right, I can also introduce you to the current situation."
After Liu Xun finished talking, Fangzheng went out one by one. When Fangzheng arrived at the gate of the mansion, the two horses were already ready.
As soon as Fangzheng stepped forward, he got on his horse without being polite.
The two walked side by side, and rushed out of the city on horseback, followed by many officers and soldiers.
When we arrived outside the city, we were still giving out porridge, and the scene was the same as last time.
The disaster victims were all over the place, and there was no order at all. They were crowded and lined up in front of the soup kitchen, and they couldn't tell the order.
And when Fangzheng observed, there were quite a few ragged people coming out of the city and inserting themselves into the porridge line.
It stands to reason that these people are definitely not disaster victims. According to inquiries from the scribes in the morning, in order to prevent chaos in the city, all the victims of the disaster have been blocked outside the city.
It can be seen that these people have proof of entering and leaving the city.
"Lord Fang, what do you think of the victims?" Liu Xun looked sideways at Fang Zhengyi.
Fang Zhengyi took out a handkerchief from his pocket, covered his mouth, and raised his little finger up slightly.
Disgusted: "The smell is unbearable... To be honest, I regret it a bit."
Liu Xun was confused.
Why this gesture?Who is on top, he or the prince?
Fang Zhengyi continued: "Alas! This place is full of chaos! Why don't these thugs line up?"
Liu Xun said indifferently: "Master Fang, this is how the disaster victims are... Dirty and messy is the norm, just wait a little longer for you to get used to it."
Fang Zhengyi was a little confused and said, "Adapt? If you adapt, won't you become like these troublemakers in the future?"
"In my opinion, it's better to find officers and soldiers to restrain them."
Liu Xun chuckled: "That's right, come here! Go and take care of the people below! Let them line up, how decent it is!"
As soon as the words fell, the officers and soldiers behind rushed into the crowd, beating and smashing with their scabbards.
The wailing of the hungry people was everywhere.
"My lord... Caomin is wrong, don't hit me...don't hit me!"
"Cough...cough..."
The officers and soldiers attacked extremely ruthlessly, and many of them had no physical strength for a long time. They were allowed to be beaten by the officers and soldiers, and even started to cough up blood.
damn it!Fang Zhengyi's heart was burning with anger!
Asking you to maintain order is how the fuck you maintain it?
Grass!
"Stop! Stop!" Fangzheng shouted twice.
Liu Xun looked at Fangzheng suspiciously: "What's the matter? Is there a problem with Mr. Fang?"
"Oh... I can't see these beating and killing things. You see, that man is still bleeding. I feel dizzy when I see blood!" Fang Zhengyi covered his face with his hands, looking terrified.
Liu Xun smiled, sure enough.This is the canary raised by the crown prince, trash!
Then he said with regret: "Lord Fang is a little ignorant, and I don't want to embarrass the people, but it doesn't work if you attack lightly, and the people feel resentful if you attack severely. It's really a dilemma!"
"Don't worry, the next official has a solution."
Fangzheng jumped off the horse, went to the porridge shed, grabbed a handful of sand and threw it into the porridge.
Loudly said: "You gangsters! Line up! Otherwise, if the chaos continues, I will add more sand to the porridge!"
The victims immediately glared at them, but they didn't have the courage to resist, so they could only slowly squirm and adjust their formation in distress.
Seeing the sand in the porridge, some people cursed secretly and left quietly.
Liu Xun was dumbfounded!
I'm just greedy, you're a fucking badass!
