Chapter 81 Robbery
"When I first came here, I lived in a nice house, but later I sold it to help a lonely elderly couple."
He scratched his head a little embarrassedly when he said this.
Song Yunchu really didn't expect that someone would become an official to this extent.
However, the fact that Han Wei was able to stand up for a poor old woman also shows that he is an official who is willing to serve the people.
Thinking of the purpose of his coming here, Song Yunchu bowed to Chao Wei.
"Han Taishou, I came here this time to ask for your help."
Song Yunchu explained the purpose of his visit and saw Han Wei's serious face.
"To be honest, I have been worried about this for a long time."
"There are too many refugees coming from the south. Even if I find people to resettle some of them, compared to the current situation, there is still too little we can do here."
"And if there are more refugees, it won't be a good thing for the local residents here."
Song Yunchu understood the difficulties Han Wei mentioned, and she did not make things difficult for Han Wei.
"I know your difficulties, so I won't give you too much trouble."
She directly handed one thousand taels of silver to Han Huo.
"This is the money I have now. I just hope that Governor Han can provide some temporary housing for the refugees. Besides that, try to find them jobs that can support themselves."
"These refugees come to a place, longing for a more stable life."
As Song Yunchu finished speaking, she quickly noticed that the light in Han Wei's eyes was getting brighter and brighter.
Besides that, there was a hint of excitement in his expression.
What's happening?
When Song Yunchu was hesitating whether to ask, Han Wei suddenly seemed to have figured something out and exclaimed, "Ah."
"Miss Song, I think your idea of involving refugees in disaster relief is very interesting. Could you elaborate on it?"
Song Yunchu didn't expect that he would ask this, but no matter what, it also meant that Han Wei was willing to participate in his plan.
"It's nothing, actually. Refugees are also human beings. Moreover, this flood has turned ordinary people who used to live a stable life into homeless people. I believe they also long for stability in their hearts."
If conditions can be provided for them to live a stable life, the placement of these refugees will not be a problem.
"You are the governor of this place. These things should not be difficult for you."
Han Wei smiled and said, "You really think highly of me, but as the governor of this place, it is also our responsibility to protect the people here, as you said."
"And Miss Song, you have already laid out a path for me and given me some money. It is my duty as Han to do something that benefits both the people and myself."
"Prefect Han is joking."
"If Governor Han is willing, we can also contact the surrounding areas and ask them to help deal with some of the refugees. This way, our subsequent rescue work will be less stressful."
Han Wei looked at Song Yunchu and thought it was not easy for her to have such knowledge at such a young age.
"Please rest assured, Miss Song. I will do my best in this matter."
"Even if I don't consider the people's face, I have to be worthy of the one thousand taels of silver you gave me."
Song Yunchu nodded, and before going back, she took another look at the young boy hiding behind his father.
"This child is quite smart. If you are willing, you can let him read more books and broaden his horizons. His future will definitely be very different."
The young boy looked at Song Yunchu's departing back and felt a little lonely.
He couldn't help but look up at his father and asked.
"Daddy, what kind of person is this sister?"
"I don't know what kind of person she is, but seeing how much she cares about the people, she must be a kind person."
Song Yunchu didn't know what the father and son thought of him at this time.
The grain transport team she led was in a crisis at this time.
Because the disaster was so serious, many people planned to leave.
Some people also had evil thoughts and even became bandits.
Highway robbery, looting, arson and murder have almost become their daily routine.
Especially Lingyun Town, the destination that Song Yunchu is heading to this time.
Before reaching Lingyun Town, they had to pass through a mountainous area.
The trees on the mountain are lush and green. Some of the tall trees can even block out the sun. You can feel a cool breeze when walking under them.
Because they were too tired from the journey, Song Yunchu let them rest here for a while.
However, what no one expected was that a group of people targeted them.
……
In the woods, someone was walking quickly through the mountains and forests.
He quickly came over to a few people.
"Boss, we have already investigated and found out that these people are indeed carrying food in their cars, and it seems that there are also a lot of medicinal herbs."
The man called "Boss" was about thirty years old, very strong, and wearing a coarse linen shirt.
Next to him stood two young men.
One of them looked older, probably in his twenties, while the other was very thin and small, probably only in his teens.
The eldest brother Xiao Nanxun frowned slightly after hearing what the man said.
At this time, a convoy was traveling from south to north, carrying a large amount of food and medicinal materials. It should be a disaster relief team organized by people from the north.
Morally speaking, they should not attack such a team.
But when I think of the children in my village.
Either they were starving to death because they had no food to eat, or they were sick and had no treatment because there were no medicines or doctors, so they could only lie in bed and wait to die.
There was a hint of ferocity in Xiao Nanxun's eyes.
No matter who comes this time, he needs this batch of medicinal herbs and food, otherwise everyone in their village will die.
"Listen to my instructions. When they enter this valley, you guys quickly go down the mountain and cut off their retreat."
"Everyone else, follow me. I don't require you to kill anyone, but you must do your best to get the medicine and food from the car."
After hearing what Xiao Nanxun said, almost everyone became serious and nodded in unison, indicating that they understood.
……
Song Yunchu saw that the people below had almost rested and prepared to leave.
There are wild mountains and wilderness here, and there might be some large predators.
It is not safe for them to stay here any longer.
If we speed up, maybe we can reach the next town before dark and find a place to rest.
Thinking of this, Song Yunchu immediately ordered these people to get up and not stay too long.
At this moment, Tiexue suddenly came to Song Yunchu's side.
