"So this is the case! Brother Guo, I'm not hiding it. In fact, if you don't come to borrow food, I'm going to open a warehouse to release grain to help the victims!"
Lin Xu said frankly.
"I know!"
Guo Nanxing's face was solemn: "It is precisely because of this that I want to come to you to borrow food!"
"What does Brother Guo mean?"
"It doesn't mean anything else. Last winter, you spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to help the victims of Jiangling! How can you pay for the money again this time? I borrowed your food in the name of the government.
After the disaster has passed, I will definitely return it to you with all the capital and interests!"
"Brother Guo just wanted to borrow my food because he didn't want me to pay the money?"
Lin Xu looked at Guo Nanxing with complicated eyes.
"yes!"
Although Guo Nanxing answered yes, his eyes were a little erratic.
Based on his understanding of Guo Nanxing, Lin Xu knew that Guo Nanxing must have told a lie just now. As for why Guo Nanxing did this, he had already guessed the general reason.
"Brother Guo, can you talk with me?"
"Okay!"
The two walked a few steps to the side. Lin Xu reached out to signal the people he brought and said, "Brother Guo, I met those people on the way back. Their villages and fields were all covered with
The water was flooded and even a few people died. In order to survive the disaster, the people in their village raised some money and asked them to go out to sell food. They also successfully bought a few trucks of food, but on the way back,
He was stopped by several soldiers from the Niesi yamen and said that the Niesi yamen had issued an order and did not allow any ordinary people to buy food privately! Brother Guo, is this happening?"
"this......"
Guo Nanxing wanted to speak but stopped.
"Brother Guo, do you still need to hide from me?"
"well!"
Guo Nanxing sighed deeply and said sadly: "Since you already know about this, I will not hide it from you anymore! That's right, the Niesi yamen issued this order, not only did not allow the people to privately
When buying grain, grain merchants are not allowed to sell grain privately!”
"Then the Niesi yamen will not allow anyone to open a warehouse and release grain?"
"Yes......"
"Brother Guo is worried that I will cause trouble when I open the warehouse and release the grain, so I want to borrow my grain. If something happens, Brother Guo will bear the responsibility! Right?"
"well!"
Guo Nanxing sighed again: "Sir, you are so wise that you can't hide anything from you!"
"So does Brother Guo know why the Niesi yamen do this?"
"Sir, don't ask so much! Lend me all your food and leave it to me for disaster relief! Don't worry about this!"
"no!"
"Why not?"
"Because I'm afraid that after lent out the food, I will not be able to collect it in the end!"
Lin Xu said something in his words!
Guo Nanxing was silent.
"Since the Niesiya government has asked everyone not to provide disaster relief, this naturally includes the Jiangling County Government! Brother Guo, if you borrow my food to help the victims, then the Niesiya government blames it, how should you deal with it?
