Transmigration: To Be His Man-Chapter 203 Arriving in Fangxian County
Lei Ruilin had sharp ears, as he laughed loudly and said, "Daddy, Big Brother and I are not monkeys!"
"If it's not a monkey, then what is it?" Qin Mian jumped down from the tree easily and landed beside Lei Tia silently, taking the water cup from him.
Lei Ruilin rolled his eyes and pulled his brother over, "If my brother and I are monkeys, you and dad ?? Hehe!"
Qin Mian raised his eyebrows, what he said was kind of interesting.
Lei Ruilin lay on his back, leaned close to him and whispered into his ear, "Father, big brother and I already knew that you and I were born."
Puu ~ ~" Qin Mian spat out the water that he hadn't swallowed yet, and stared at him with his mouth agape.
"Dad, don't worry. Little brother and I won't tell anyone else." Qin Ruiqi comforted Qin Mian by patting his shoulder.
Lei Tia lowered his head, the corner of his lips curving up in a distinct curve.
"Lei Tia! "Control your son!" Qin Mian suddenly jumped up, gritting his teeth as he roared. He kicked Lei Tia with all his might, his face completely red, it was unknown if it was reflected in the flames.
"Yes." Lei Tia nodded his head. His two hands easily pulled his two sons over, placed them on his knees and slapped their butts respectively. He didn't even make a sound.
Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin secretly laughed, and quickly ran far away.
Qin Mian crossed his arms across his chest as he looked down at the man who had an i
ocent expression. After a long while, he smiled lightly, looked like he had calmed down, and walked to a tree not far away, leaning against it and sat down.
After Lei Tia finished roasting the venison, he put it away on the plate, "Wifey, you can eat now."
Qin Mian walked over, took the plate, and started eating with relish.
Lei Tia was a little disappointed that she did not hear him say that it was delicious.
Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin ran over and shared a plate.
"Daddy's grilled it so delicious." Lei Ruilin had always been straightforward.
Qin Ruiqi nodded in agreement. 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗novel.𝐜o𝒎
"Daddy, right?" Lei Ruilin turned and asked Qin Mian.
Qin Mian nodded in silence.
Lei Tia was dissatisfied in his heart, and asked: "Is it enough?"
Qin Mian nodded, and did not say a word.
Lei Tia immediately understood that his wife was angry.
Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin looked at each other. They really weren't used to their father not saying anything at all.
Lei Tia looked at Qin Ruiqi, and then looked at Lei Ruilin, "It's from me."
Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin were stu
ed.
"Pfft, hahaha ??" Qin Mian laughed out loud in satisfaction, and patted his two sons' shoulders, "Do you understand now, who's the boss here?"
Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin looked at each other and smiled. They put down the plates and knelt down on one knee at the same time.
"No formalities, no formalities." Qin Mian was once again amused by his two sons.
Although the people sitting some distance away couldn't hear what they were saying, they could see and feel the infection. A faint smile hung on their faces.
"..."
Ling Prefecture was located slightly to the west and south of the Grand Xia Country. It was not very close to the capital city. Relying on Qin Mian's Spirit Spring Water, the group of people did not stop until eight days later and entered Ling Zhou in just eight days.
Lord Cai, the Prefect of Ling Prefecture, had already received the news. He led all the officials of different sizes to welcome them personally at the city gate. All four of them were of the same rank, so no one dared to slight them.
Lei Tia never liked interacting with officials. With just a few words of greeting, he ordered Master Cai to immediately bring them to the Kui County, and spent another two days there. When they got there, they could only see the ruins.
At least, Qin Mian had a quick glance at it and discovered that there were quite a few porridge stalls constructed by the roadside. The victims all looked to be in ragged clothes, and although they were slightly thin, their complexion was still not bad.
Qin Mian and Lei Tia looked around and confirmed that there were no problems at the moment. Only then did they instruct the soldiers to set up camp on the spot first, then have a good meal and rest.
Prefect Cai led Qin Mian and his family into a perfectly fine house. The house was made of stone bricks, which allowed it to survive the earth.
"National Duke, County Magistrate Qin, Crown Prince, Duke An Ping, please wait for a moment. I have already ordered some people to prepare some food."
"Thank you, Lord Prefect." Qin Mian said, "Prefect, no need to be so courteous, just call our two children 'little gongzi' to prevent them from being too arrogant."
Lei Ruilin gri
ed and said: "Mhm. Prefect Cai can also just directly call us "Ruiqi" and "Ruilin". "
Prefect Cai was kind, "Alright, I will call the two of you 'little gongzi'."
Qin Mian said: "Prefect Cai, please, let's sit down and talk."
"Sure, please." Although Qin Mian was only County Magistrate, he still had another identity, so Prefect Cai did not dare to slight him. After making a "please" gesture, he sat down.
"Master Cai, how is Kui County now?" Qin Mian asked.
The Prefect Cai sighed, "Currently, the entire county is relying on the food brought over from other places. If this continues, the prefectural city won't be able to raise so many people. In addition, due to the destruction of many lands, many commoners have already left for other places to seek help from their relatives and friends.
Qin Mian had never carefully inspected the Kui County before, so he would not say anything rash. He only said: "After eating lunch, I'll have to trouble Prefect Cai to take us for a tour around." He naturally didn't have the right to let Prefect Cai lead them personally, but since Lei Tia was still here, he didn't dare to leave even if he wanted to.
"This is my duty."
A short while later, the dishes were served. Two vegetables, two meat dishes, fried green peppers with bacon, and a stewed chicken with potatoes. The culinary skills of the people cooking were average, but Qin Mian and Lei Tia were not picky people. Furthermore, Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin were always sensible, no one complained, and they did not waste any food.
The goodwill in Prefect Cai's heart surged. He thought, no wonder the emperor trusted National Duke's wife so much, and also heard that the emperor really liked the twin sons of the National Duke.
After di
er, Qin Mian told the two children to obediently stay in the brick house and left with Lei Tia. Incidentally, the original County Magistrate of Kui County was still alive, but he was gravely injured and unable to work. He was not in a hurry to complete the transaction.
The Prefect Cai's worries were not unreasonable. Some of the bodies under the bricks had not been treated in time and had started to emit a pungent smell; the whole town was dirty and messy, and the sanitation was obviously inadequate; due to the land cracking, the water in the ponds and rivers had dried up completely. The commoners did not have much water for them to bathe in every day; the crops in the fields also lacked water ??
Everything shocked Qin Mianxin. He said to Lei Tia: "Tia, it's really not easy to clean such a big place up. I think we should still consider the possibility of relocating our Kui County first. "
Lei Tia nodded.
Prefect Cai was shocked, but since the Emperor had given the task of rebuilding the Kui County to Qin Mian, there was no need for him to interfere, so he did not interrupt.
Qin Mian pondered for a moment, then said: "I will write a prescription, and people will boil some medicine, everyone will drink a bowl, to increase your immunity, and to prevent pestilence."
Lei Tia said: "Prefect Cai is more familiar with the situation here, so this matter should be left to him. Let's go further on. "
Prefect Cai naturally agreed.
After Qin Mian wrote down the prescription for him, he also gave a small bottle of Spirit Spring Water to Lei Qinzhong, asking him to add two drops to all the medicinal pots.
After leaving the range of everyone's eyes, Qin Mian and Lei Tia directly flew far away into the distance, looking down from mid-air at the terrain around them with their Kui County at the center.
The source of the earthquake was not far from the Kui County, which was why it had such a severe impact on the Kui County. Fortunately, the mountain was almost everywhere, and there were no other towns. Otherwise, more people would have died.
Qin Mian looked far into the distance. The plains were located less than five kilometers away from him. Roughly thirty kilometers to the east from the Kui County, the ground gradually levelled up, and the towns and villages became denser as well.
"No wonder the Emperor Xiao Hui said that Kui County is the national gateway to Grand Xia Country. Once the Kui County is broken, the people from the Turow Country can easily go straight in. "
Lei Tia nodded, as a faint heaviness appeared on his face. "In other words, moving the Kui County to another place isn't appropriate."
Qin Mian frowned, "That's right. But there have been two earthquakes in the last ten years. It must have happened ten years ago. "Do you want the people to stay here and wait for the next earthquake?"
Lei Tia suddenly said something somewhat baffled, "These few mountains don't seem to have been cracked ten years ago."
Qin Mian followed his gaze, and nodded in agreement. "Indeed, you can tell this from the fact that there are so many hundred-year-old trees on the mountain ?? ?? Could it be that you mean that we should move the Kui County up the mountain?" He looked at Lei Tia in disbelief.
Lei Tia nodded, "Why not?"
Qin Mian said: "It can be, but it will take up a lot of time. Let's think about it. "
After returning to the County City, Lei Tia sent a few teams of people to look for water. When he was in the sky with Qin Mian, he had seen a river and a lake deep in the mountains, but he could not say it directly. Afterwards, he sent a few more teams to hunt on the mountain. An initial estimate put the number of people who survived Kui County at around thirty thousand. Once again, there were ten thousand elite soldiers, and they had to continuously consume the food sent over by the Regional Palace.
Qin Mian used a brush to draw the entire situation of the county, so that he could have a more comprehensive analysis.
Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin were very obedient, after playing for a while, they went to take a nap, and slept soundly. A little white and a little golden hair were standing guard by the side.
The Golden Eagle went missing, and most of it went to the forest to play.
