The housekeeper said that the village outside the city must have suffered severe disasters and may die.

Qin Huaidao immediately ordered the housekeeper to prepare food and clothes for warmth, and told the maid to take good care of his younger brother and sister, so he took those things out with his family soldiers.

When they were almost at the south gate, Qin Huaidao found that many people had sent people to the village, and carriages were one after another.

"Boping, are you going to the village too?" Qin Huaidao was riding on a horse and walking outside the city, when he saw Cheng Chusi riding over.

"Yes, it's still falling so hard that it's going to be affected again!" Qin Huaidao said as he bowed his hand as he rode his horse.

"Yes, hey, this is like this every year!" Cheng Chusi sighed when he heard this.

Soon, they left outside the city gate, and the two families had different directions.

Qin Huaidao rode his horse to his farm and found that many houses had collapsed.

"The head of the family is here!"

"Honor!"

"The head of the family is here!"

As soon as Qin Huaidao arrived at Xia Qinzhuang, the merchants saw Qin Huaidao coming and saluted and said.

"All up, are there anyone in those collapsed houses?" Qin Huaidao dismounted and asked the farmers.

Those village households were actually all family soldiers in the mansion. They were all people who followed their father to fight in the south and north. Before they could fight, they lived in the Qin family village.

"No, they are all rescued!" An old man stood up and said to Qin Huaidao.

Qin Huaidao began to patrol the village and found that many houses were dilapidated.

Those houses are rammed with earth, and the roofs are full of thatch. When it snows heavily, those roofs cannot be held back first.

"Take it off, cut off all the houses, live in the warehouse, take out the valuable things, hurry up!" Qin Huaidao said to the people behind him.

"Young master, you can't do it! This is a house and can still live in people! It's a pity to take it off!" The old men next to them shouted anxiously.

"I've all been stripped down. How can people live in such a house? The snow has not stopped yet. Who knows when to go down? What should I do if the house collapses and people are crushed to death?

I've scattered it. The mansion will be rebuilt for you in the beginning of next spring. All the money will be released. Now everyone will live in the warehouse.

Although the Qin family is now in trouble, the money can still be taken out in the mansion, butler!" Qin Huaidao said loudly to the old men, and then called the butler.

"Young guy is here!" the housekeeper came over and responded.

"I told someone to go to the mansion and ask the blacksmith to continue making stoves and install them in the warehouse, so that they can keep warm and create more!" Qin Huaidao ordered the butler.

"Yes, young master!" the butler bowed and said.

Qin Huaidao inspected the village and frowned tightly. These houses may not be able to be kept.

Then Qin Huaidao rode his horse and went to the other two farms. The Qin family had three farms, namely Shangqinzhuang, Zhongqinzhuang and Xiaqinzhuang. The houses of the three farms were not good.

Qin Huaidao patrolled until evening, and the heavy snow had not stopped.

And many houses on the side of the village that had not yet been stripped down have collapsed.

Many merchants were grateful to Qin Huaidao in their hearts. If it weren't for Qin Huaidao, I wouldn't know how many people would have been killed!

It was already evening when Qin Huaidao returned to the mansion.

"Young Master, the grain mansion is enough, but it will take a lot of money to build a house next year, hey!" After the butler followed Qin Huaidao into the hall, the butler sighed when he thought of this.

The mansion had no money at all, but now there are natural disasters, which makes the mansion worse.

"It's okay, I'll find a way to deal with money. OK, you've been working hard for a day, go back and have a rest early!" Qin Huaidao waved his hand to the butler, thinking about things.

Early the next morning, after Qin Huai got up, he settled his younger brother and sister and continued to go to the village.

But as soon as he left the city, Qin Huaidao saw a large number of refugees, and many of them were frozen to death on the road.

"It's a sin!" The butler said sadly when he saw this scene.

"Let's go!" Qin Huaidao didn't care about these things now. The court would take care of those refugees, but they could not enter Chang'an City, they could only be outside the city.

Soon, Qin Huaidao took his people to his village.

"The head of the family is here!" Qin Huaidao was still right away. When those outside the warehouse saw Qin Huaidao, they immediately saluted.

"Get up, is it okay?" Qin Huaidao dismounted and walked inside and said.

"Head of the family, if you hadn't let us move out yesterday, I don't know how many people would have died. We have heard of other villages, so many people have died!" An old man came to Qin Huaidao and spoke.

Qin Huaidao also opened the door and entered the warehouse.

Each farm has many warehouses, which are in good harvest. They are temporarily used to pile up grains and will be delivered to the warehouses in Chang'an City after the inventory is completed.

Qin Huaidao went in and found many children running back and forth inside, and the ground was covered with straw mats and bedding.

"I've met the head of the family!" The people inside saw Qin Huaidao coming in, and saluted them one after another, regardless of men, women, age and age.

"Okay, get up, I'm just worried. Come and see. You guys settle here first. After spring comes, I'll build a house!" Qin Huaidao said to those people.

The warehouse has already installed a stove, which is very warm. The village households do not lack firewood at all, so it is warm inside now.

"Master, come and drink water and warm your body. This stove is great. Now we can all wash our faces with hot water, otherwise we will never use it!" An old man came over and poured a bowl of warm water for Qin Huaidao, and handed it to Qin Huaidao.

Qin Huaidao took it and held it with both hands, it was indeed very warm.

"Well, that's good! I'm settled down. The grain mansion will be brought over and will not make you hungry! I can only do this first!" Qin Huaidao nodded and said to those people.

Then Qin Huaidao took a few sips and went to other warehouses to check out, which were all full of people.

Qin Huaidao saw that nothing had happened and was very satisfied, so he went to the other two villages to inspect. After confirming that there was no problem, Qin Huaidao rushed to the mansion.

Along the way, Qin Huaidao saw many corpses, all of which were frozen and stiff.

Soon, Qin Huaidao arrived at the south gate of Chang'an City and found that many families were serving porridge here.

"Is there much food in the mansion?" Qin Huaidao rode on the horse and asked the housekeeper behind him.

"Not much. I sold a lot of them in order to raise money before. Now the food is only enough for the people in our mansion!" The butler said to Qin Huaidao.

He knew that Qin Huaidao must also want to serve porridge.

In previous years, as long as there was a disaster, every mansion would pull out food to help the victims, and the Yiguo Duke's Mansion would be no exception.

"Well, where is the money?" Qin Huaidao sighed and continued to ask.

"There are still about 300 guan, but now I can't buy food anymore. I'm suffering from the disaster. The people in the palace will not release food. Young Master, forget it, the people in the palace are powerless now!"

The butler knew what Qin Huaidao was thinking and knew that Qin Huaidao was kind-hearted, but now he was really powerless.

"Well, go back to the house!" Qin Huaidao nodded and rode back to the house.

When he arrived at the mansion, he saw his younger brother and sister playing in the room. Qin Huaidao couldn't help but smile.

"Brother, are you back?" Qin Jiao saw Qin Huai coming back, and ran over with a smile.

"Well, have you practiced writing?" Qin Huaidao squatted down and hugged Qin Jiao and Qin Shandao who ran over with him.

"I have practiced for a while and read a book, but I don't know many words!" Qin Jiao looked at Qin Huaidao and said with a smile.

"Well, let's go, brother, I will teach you how to read!" Qin Huaidao said, then stood up and touched their heads and said.

Soon, Qin Huaidao sat in the wing room and taught his younger brothers and sisters to recognize words. Gradually, he discovered that many of the younger brothers and sisters had misunderstood because many of the Chinese characters looked very similar.

"Yeah!" Qin Huaidao stood up, then thought for a while, and asked his younger brothers and sisters to practice calligraphy. He returned to the study and wanted to make the pinyin so that his younger brothers and sisters could recognize the words.

In the next two days, heavy snow fell from time to time, and the situation outside the city became more serious

"Fang Xiang, more than 10,000 bodies have been cleaned around Chang'an City. If the problem of keeping cold cannot be solved, I guess I will freeze to death this winter!" An official from the Ministry of Revenue reported to Fang Xuanling, who was standing there watching refugees waiting for porridge in the distance, with a very heavy tone!

"The Ministry of Revenue has allocated all the clothes to keep warm, but it is still far from enough. There are too many places that have been affected this time. More than 30 counties around Chang'an have been severely affected.

In addition, more than 100 counties in other fifteen prefectures and 100 counties have suffered from disasters to varying degrees. A large number of refugees are now unable to keep the cold, and the road is full of frozen corpses. The court really needs to find a way.

Otherwise, this winter, the people who freeze to death may have more than 100,000, or even more." The official next to him said to Fang Xuanling anxiously again.

Fang Xuanling was anxious at this moment, but as Zuo Pushe of the Tang Dynasty, he could not show it even if he was anxious.

"Fang Xiang, the death statistics report in various places in Chang'an Prefecture just came out. It's strange that Zhuangzi, Duke of Yiguo, did not die!

The other lords and nobles had dead cases, ranging from more than ten or more, and there were new deaths reported every day, but the Qin family's village had no deaths reported!" At this time, the prefect of Chang'an came over and said to Fang Xuanling.

"Why?" Fang Xuanling turned his head to look at the prefect.

"I don't know, I passed by the Qin family's village yesterday, and the house collapsed. I guess the Qin family may have forgotten to report it!

I heard that the prodigal son of the Qin family has just recovered now!" The prefect of Chang'an stood there and bowed his hand and said.

"It is impossible to forget the report. Those in charge of the house will come to report. How dare they hide it or not?" Fang Xuanling said in disbelief.

Such things have become a routine. As long as death occurs, the butler will come to report without ordering the head of the family.

"That's right!" The Chang'an prefect nodded as soon as he thought about it.
