When Zhao Zhijing, the Minister of Household Affairs, said this, there was a trace of hesitation in his expression.
Wang Yuan glanced at him and then said: "Master Zhao, this is the food and salary for disaster relief. No one will be interested in it, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Zhijing sighed and couldn't help but say: "It's hard to talk about this kind of thing in the first place... However, with the prince personally present, no one should dare to touch it."
"But... there are many wealthy gentry in Lingnan, and the local magistrate is far away from the emperor, and the mountains are high, and they have a lot of manpower, so... it's not particularly easy to do!"
This is what Zhao Zhijing is worried about!
If this money can be collected and used all in the hands of the victims, it will naturally solve the problem!
But I'm afraid...
Many people don’t do anything!

If you don’t see the benefits, you won’t do anything!
Wang Yuan also understood, nodded and laughed.
"I understand, it seems that some tasks are not easy to carry out."
"Okay, let's give one-third of our food and salary to the local prefects and gentry, and tell them that there will be more food and salary coming in the future, and when the time comes, there will be benefits!"
"Let them help us handle the matter first, and solve the urgent needs of these victims first!"
After Wang Yuan finished speaking, Zhao Zhijing was stunned for a moment.
I thought Wang Yuan was capable, but it turned out...
Isn’t this still the same virtue?
Paving the way with money?
hehe......
"Understood."
Zhao Zhijing didn't say much. After hearing this, he replied lightly.
Wang Yuan didn't say much, but Huang Jiaojiao said: "Husband, do you really want to give food and salary to the local prefect and wealthy gentry? This..."
Huang Jiaojiao thought that Wang Yuan was telling the truth. After all, the lives of the victims were important. These corrupt officials were not political and they were pretty good. Why should they give them money?
"Jiaojiao, if the water is clear, there will be no fish. You have to understand this!"
"Besides, we have never been to Lingnan, and we don't know what the conditions are like there!"
"Also, whether the local gentry or the county magistrate, they are all local snakes. A powerful dragon cannot defeat the local snakes. If we go against them, it will only delay things!"
"We can leave with a pat on the back, but what about these victims? So... giving them money is to stabilize them and let them help us get things done. I can also take a look at the situation in Lingnan.
"
"After all, with our few manpower, when will we be able to solve this famine?"
After Wang Yuan finished speaking, Huang Jiaojiao was shocked.
"Husband, what do you mean...after solving the famine, you are going to deal with them?"
Wang Yuan smiled and nodded.
"Of course! I won't make it easy for them to take the disaster relief food and salary. Some money can be earned, but some money can't be earned!"
"This is blood money. If they dare to make money, I will make them spit it out with profits!"
"These corrupt officials can't do anything unless they are rectified!"
After Wang Yuan finished speaking, Huang Jiaojiao looked worried.
"But...husband, you also said that we are short of manpower. If...we really take action, can we people deal with them?"
Huang Jiaojiao was not worried about anything else. She was just worried that if they took action, they would be no match and Wang Yuan would be hurt.
"My madam, it's hard for you to act like a little girl in front of your husband recently? In this world, force is the least valuable, the most valuable thing is the brain!"
"When doing things, don't first think of force. Even if they do use their hands, I'm not afraid of them. But if you can use your wisdom, you must use your wisdom!"
"Just watch how your young master and I can fight without bloodshed and let them spit out this food and salary intact!"
