Chapter 1609: Receiving Relief Food!

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shi Che had already gone past them. They only heard the people say with relish that Shi Che had gone to the granaries in Lizhou to supervise the distribution of relief food.

The newly collected tax grain in Lizhou had yet to be transferred by Fan Jianxi and the other officials. It was also Fan Jianxi who had thrown away the things in the secret chamber more than a month ago. He had taken the initiative to report to Shi Yuan and fought for rit. Therefore, he would not add to his cri and transfer the grain. The newly collected tax grain was collected according to the heavy tax before, so there was an abundance. In addition, there was so old grain that was yet to be used. Fortunately, the private soldiers surrendered and were released ho. The stock could be used to feed them. Anyway, the warehouse was full. The relief money that Shi Yuan had asked the national treasury to allocate had not arrived yet, but the relief food could be distributed first. They could not let another citizen starve to death. This was the bottom line of Shi Yuan and Shi Che.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other.

At this mont, there was the sound of a gong and the shouting of soldiers, “Line up for relief food! You will need to line up to receive relief food!”

The people who were discussing it with great interest were pleasantly surprised. “Didn’t they say that there was a shortage of manpower and that the relief food in the prefecture could only be received tomorrow? How can we receive it today?!”

The soldier said loudly, “His Highness has urgently transferred a group of soldiers from the neighboring province to distribute the rations. Hurry up and get the rations. Line up in front of the governnt office to receive it. It’ll be on a first co first serve basis!”

“Alright, alright, alright.” The commoners imdiately rushed over.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan did not need to receive any relief food, but they still went to the front of the governnt office, mainly to take a look at what they were handing out.

When they arrived at the front of the governnt office, the governnt office had already arranged six long lines. There was even a place to distribute porridge next to the food. Those who were hungry could skip the line and quickly get a bowl of porridge to fill their stomachs.

Because there were soldiers in armor maintaining order, everything was very orderly.

The first thing Shi Che did when he arrived in Lizhou was to distribute porridge to those who were hungry. No matter if they were beggars or anyone else, as long as they were hungry, they could co and get a bowl of porridge. They would give them two als a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. The porridge was quite thick. This way, they could ensure that no one in Lizhou would starve to death.

After all, the relief food could not be distributed imdiately in Lizhou. They still had to check the situation of the granaries to determine how much relief food could be distributed to each family and where exactly. They also had to arrange for people to maintain order when the ti ca. If they did not have enough manpower, they would have to transfer people from other nearby provinces… All of this required ti.

They could only distribute the relief food now because Shi Che had already confird that they could open the granary.

Jiang Yue looked around and asked a commoner, “Excuse , has anyone been managing this porridge stall?”

The commoners said, “When the porridge is distributed, there will be soone to refill it. When the porridge is not distributed, there will only be a shed and so utensils for distributing porridge. They are not of much use, so no one is stationed here at all tis.”

“Then how many more days will we receive porridge? Do you know?” Jiang Yue asked again.

“I heard from the officer that there will be another three days of porridge distribution,” the commoner said. “By then, everyone will get their relief food. There will be no need to distribute porridge anymore.”

“Thank you.” Jiang Yue nodded and thanked the person that answered their question.

Xue Yan also expressed his thanks.

Then, the two of them found an inn to stay in.

When they were in the room on the second floor of the inn, Jiang Yue sat down at the table and started talking to Xue Yan.
