Yang Xu thought that he was now a chief officer under the Ministry of Works, and the Ministry of Works is in charge of road construction and other matters, so it should be no problem to build a road.

If this cement road is built and the effect is good enough, then I will instigate the King of Qin and ask the King of Qin to write a letter to Emperor Qinglong to see if all the official roads outside the imperial city can be replaced with cement roads.

Yang Xu knew that the Zhao State had fought south and north in the past few years, and the national treasury was empty. He built a cement road himself, and probably wouldn't get much money.

However, Yang Xu had his own way to earn money from other places, such as fighting for tax reductions from Emperor Qinglong, and obtaining the right to use mountains in the territory of Zhao, which contains rich mineral resources, etc.

In short, Yang Xu will not suffer any losses in doing business.

Even if he suffers a small loss in front of him, he will earn back ten or a hundred times from other places in the future.

This year's winter is much colder than in previous years. After several heavy snowfalls, countless people near the imperial capital collapsed, lost their homes and became refugees.

And these refugees had nowhere to go, so they flocked to the imperial capital in groups.

Emperor Qinglong was a Ren Emperor. After learning the news, he ordered the opening of a porridge shed outside the city to help the people, and sent officials to comfort the refugees and prevent unrest.

As long as we pass this cold winter, those refugees can return to their homes and rebuild hope.

Yang Xu originally wanted to spend this winter peacefully in the Yang Family Manor, but he never expected that he would have the same part to appease the refugees.

Afterwards, Yang Xu realized that this was the job that the King of Qin fought for him.

In the words of the King of Qin, if this matter is done well, Yang Xu will be able to make contributions, thus deepening his impression in Emperor Qinglong's heart and will be of great benefit to his future career.

Yang Xu smiled and MMP in his heart.

It is simple to say but not easy to do. If you accidentally say the wrong thing and make trouble, among the thousands of refugees, you may even lose your life.

However, the decree had been issued, and Yang Xu could not disobey the order, so he had to accept the order dejectedly.

Fortunately, Yang Xu was not the only official sent out to appease the refugees this time, so Yang Xu decided to try to speak as little as possible and never be the first to be a leader.

In addition, each official can bring two entourages. Considering that when appeaseing refugees, Yang Xu decided to bring Yang Fugui and Yang Dazhi with him for his own safety.

Although Yang Fugui and Yang Dazhi were seriously injured in the previous assassination outside the Yang family manor, they were also lucky in disguise.

During the period when the two were recuperating, the great-grandfather used special techniques to promote their muscles and promote blood circulation, and boiled potions to soak them. Not only did their injuries recover quickly, but their strength was slightly improved.

Don’t underestimate these improvements. They were warriors who were between second-rate masters and first-rate masters before. After this improvement, they became closer to the realm of first-rate masters.

In addition, in order to improve the self-protection ability of Yang Fugui and Yang Dazhi, and to protect Yang Xu in the future, the great-grandfather also specially taught them a set of skills of joining forces to attack.

As long as the two practice proficiently and cooperate well, they can compete with first-class experts.

In this way, they will be with Yang Xu in the future, as long as they do not meet strong people in the Grandmaster realm, they will be able to advance and retreat without worries.

So Yang Xu felt much more at ease with him with them.

On this day, Yang Xu took Yang Fugui and Yang Dazhi to report to the Ministry of Works, and then came outside the city with several other officials drawn by the six ministries.

Seeing the thousands of refugees outside the city, Yang Xu's scalp was a little numb and he whispered to Yang Fugui and Yang Dazhi: "If the situation is not good, let's run away!"

The responsibility of Yang Fugui and Yang Dazhi is to protect Yang Xu, and he nodded after hearing this.

Officials from the six ministries first went to some porridge sheds set up by the government, and then went deep into the refugees to ask about their well-being.

From beginning to end, Yang Xu walked at the end of several officials, maintaining a harmless smile on his face.

"Master Guan, Cao Min's daughter has a high fever, so she will die if she continues like this... Please be kind and save her. Cao Min kowtowed to you."

Yang Xu was walking, his left calf suddenly tightened and was hugged by a black and thin refugee.

Yang Xu lowered his head and saw a thin, twenty-five- and six-year-old woman sitting beside the refugee. The woman's eyes were filled with tears and her expression was anxious. An eight- or nine-year-old boy was snuggling beside her and a five- or six-year-old girl was holding in her arms.

The girl was wearing a torn little jacket. She didn't know how long it took to wash it. It was dirty and had a strange smell.

The girl looks sick and has abnormal flush on her cheeks, which is clearly a symptom of a high fever.

Perhaps the girl who was awakened by the pleading voice of the black and thin refugee, who was half asleep and half awake, barely opened her eyes and looked at Yang Xu, and then closed her powerlessly.

The girl's pure and innocent eyes made Yang Xu's heart tighten.

He squatted down, not caring about the girl's face covered with dust. He touched her forehead with his palm and frowned, "It's very hot... Fugui, take her to our manor and let the doctors in the manor show you!"

In order to avoid epidemics among refugees and being brought into the city, there are heavy troops guarding the city gate, and refugees are not allowed to enter the city.

Moreover, the government only set up a porridge shed outside the city, but did not send doctors to inspect. Therefore, the refugees were sick and could only hold on. If they died, they could only blame themselves for their bad luck.

In this era of lack of medical treatment and extremely poor medical conditions, if this girl cannot be treated in time, a small life may be gone.

As a civilized society, Yang Xu, who has traveled from this place, how could he bear to watch the girl die?

The Yang Family Manor is now growing in population, and its land and population will expand in the future. Therefore, Yang Xu specially hired several doctors with excellent medical skills to stay in the manor so that they would not have trouble running to the city when they get sick.

The black and thin refugee, the thin woman, and the boy and girl were obviously from a family of four.

When the couple heard Yang Xu promised to treat his daughter, they burst into tears and kowtowed.

Yang Fugui scratched his head and said, "No, sir, I'm leaving, what should you do?"

Yang Xu said: "I have great ambitions to follow me!"

Yang Fugui said: "Then let Dazhi go, he will run fast! I will stay!"

Yang Dazhi shook his head and said, "No! You are not careful enough, I'm not at ease to stay!"

Yang Xu stomped and said, "It's important to save people, why fight for them? Fugui, you take their family of four!"

When Yang Fugui saw Yang Xu getting angry, he was honest and waved to the family of four of the black and thin refugee family, saying, "It's your blessing to meet sir! Come with me!"
