Chapter 77 An envelope

County government office.
Cheng Deng bowed and said, "Sir, the statistics have been completed. Thirteen houses have been poured out, five people have been injured, and no one has died."
When Li Yu heard that no one died, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "How was the injuries of those five people?"
Cheng Deng said: "Sir, except for one person who was smashed to his leg, the rest are just minor injuries, and there is nothing serious."
"Um."
Li Yu nodded, and then fell into deep thought.
The dragon turned over last night, was the source of them here or elsewhere?
Now, I still know nothing.
If the source was in them, there would be nothing.
But once the source is somewhere else, something big might have happened!
There is such a strong tremor in Yongyang County, so the source is not...
Looking back at the time when feeding chickens yesterday evening, the old hen who was almost sperm screamed at him. Could it be that he wanted to tell him that the earth dragon was about to turn around?
This speculation is not unfounded. As far as he knows, animals can predict the arrival of the earth dragon in advance, let alone the old hen that is about to become a sperm.
...
Not long after, Li Yu received an order from Jiangbei County, and thus learned the source of the earth dragon's turn.
The order is as follows: An unprecedented turn of earth and dragons occurred in Leling County. Jiangbei County must support a large amount of grain to Leling County. Any county under Jiangbei County needs to collect 1,000 stones of grain, and then it must be sent to Jiangbei County as quickly as possible, and finally sent to Leling County.
Li Yu looked at the county magistrate Luo Yuanqing and asked, "Mr. Luo, I remember that our Yongyang County also has a granary?"
Luo Yuanqing said: "Sir, we do have a granary in Yongyang County, but there is not much grain in this granary at this time, and it is all old grain. The subordinates are probably only about 500 stones, which is half the distance from 1,000 stones."
Li Yu said: "It doesn't matter if the old grain is not important. Just buy the remaining five hundred stones of grain from the people. The price cannot be lower than the market price. Luo County Magistrate, I will leave this matter to you."
Luo Yuanqing bowed and said, "Yes! Sir!"
Then, Li Yu turned his head and looked at Cheng Deng and Li Changfeng: "Leling County is not too far from Yongyang County. I'm afraid that refugees may come to our Yongyang County soon. You need to pay attention during this period."
Cheng Deng bowed to Li Changfeng and said, "Yes! Sir!"
After giving the instructions, Li Yu returned to the study. After thinking about it, he took out a larger piece of rice paper and spread it on the desk. Then he picked up a brush and dipped it in a little ink, and then started writing on the rice paper.
What he wants to write is not anything, but some things that the earth dragon needs to pay attention to after turning over. These are what he learned in the original world. In terms of the big picture, he was just an ordinary person who could not be more ordinary, but he still understood some small things.
For example, try to drink water as much as possible, and the water must be boiled before drinking each time; form a special team to deal with the corpse. Whether it is a human or an animal, it must be treated as soon as possible. It is best to burn it. If it is buried, it must be far enough from the place where the water is taken, because piles of corpses are likely to cause plague; the wound can be scrubbed with high concentrations of alcohol first, which can prevent the wound from getting inflamed and rot to a certain extent. If the wound is bleeding continuously, you can try sewing it, just like sewing clothes...
He didn't know what role these could play in the turn of the earth dragon in Leling County this time, or nothing, but he still wrote it down, intending to send the thousand stones to Jiangbei County City, and take it over and hand it over to the prefect of Jiangbei County.
As for whether the prefect disdained him, attached importance to him, or was half-believing and half-doubting, that was not what he should consider. He thought he had done everything he should do.
Luo Yuanqing's efficiency was still as high as before. In just half a day, he had already purchased 500 stones of grain from the people.
On the next day, Li Yu sent Cheng Deng to take some constables and servants to send the thousand stones to Jiangbei County and County City, folded the rice paper written yesterday and placed it on the envelope, and handed it to Cheng Deng.
There is a highway between Yongyang County and Jiangbei County and the county towns, and there are many people coming and going. There is no need to worry about the sudden occurrence of robbers robbing food halfway.
Unobstructed along the way, Cheng Deng quickly arrived at Jiangbei County and then appeared smoothly in the prefect's mansion.
The person responsible for receiving the food was a middle-aged official under the prefect's office, a Gongcao in the county government. He was not stingy in praise for Yongyang County being able to deliver a thousand stones of grain so quickly.
"I didn't expect that your Yongyang County is so efficient, and it is the first to achieve it. This time, I believe the prefect will praise you Yongyang County well..."
Cheng Deng just smiled without saying anything, saying more.
After the middle-aged official in front of him finished speaking, he took out an envelope from his arms and handed it to the middle-aged official: "Sir, this is what my magistrate of the county magistrate gave to the prefect. Please give it to the prefect."
The middle-aged official took it and asked in confusion: "Is this?"
Cheng Deng shook his head: "The magistrate did not tell me to wait, but just asked me to hand over this letter to the prefect."
...
After delivering a thousand stones of food to the prefect's office and handing the letter to the middle-aged official, Cheng Deng did not stay in Jiangbei County and directly took people back to Yongyang County.
However, the middle-aged official came to the prefect of Jiangbei County with the envelope.
"The magistrate of Yongyang County handed over to my official?"
The prefect Situ Liang was very surprised. If he remembered correctly, the magistrate of Yongyang County was a Jinshi in the second year of Tianshun. He was a young man. When he was appointed as the magistrate of Yongyang County, he had visited him. Apart from that, he had never been to and had no friendship.
At this time, this envelope is...
With all kinds of confusion, the prefect Situ Liang opened the envelope, took out the rice paper from it, and then looked at it with a fixed eye.
His expression was stunned at first, and as he continued to read, his brows sometimes frowned and sometimes stretched out.
It took me a long time before the prefect Situ Liang took his eyes off the rice paper.
Some of the things written on this rice paper are recognized by him, such as dealing with the corpse as soon as possible, while others are naturally thought to be whimsical and unacceptable. For example, sewing the wound like sewing clothes, it makes me feel numb when I think about it. This is a human, not a clothes!
Looking at the rice paper in front of him, the prefect fell into deep thought.
Should I submit it?
If the court does not accept or ignores it, it will not have much impact on him. Once the court adopts and agrees with it, although it is not his hand, he has made achievements...
Thinking of this, the prefect Situ Liang had made up his mind to come.
