The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 231

[Chapter 231 There is a problem with the dam]

The governor was unhappy, thinking that he had given Lin Tian enough face by coming to invite him personally, so he dared to make trouble?

He insisted on stopping Lin Tian and insisted that he stay and cure the patient before leaving. Lei Dian

wanted to hit him.

“Okay, I have handed over the method of saving people to a few old doctors, you can go and ask them.”

Lin Tian didn’t want to drag with such people anymore, so he recommended the old doctors to him.

Seeing that there were still people who could cure the plague, the governor was secretly happy, and he would definitely take the credit.

“It seems that Master Lin still can’t bear to see the people in the city suffer. I would like to thank Master Lin for his treatment on behalf of the people. Why don’t you stay for a few more days and wait until the plague is completely cured. I will hold a banquet to thank you.”

As long as someone can cure the plague, it doesn’t matter whether Lin Tian stays or not.

The governor had a smile on his face, but there was still calculation in the depths of his turbid eyes.

“No need to thank you. Please make way, Sir Governor. Don’t block my way.”

Lin Tian was too lazy to look at the Governor again. The Governor’s fat body moved away and walked forward.

Lei Dian and Su Xiangning followed behind.

They stopped not far away and waited for Xu Wenxuan to come.

“If he had done something, the plague wouldn’t be so serious.”

Su Xiangning obviously saw that the Governor was not really for the people. She pursed her lips slightly, and her cold face showed her dislike for the Governor.

“With the old doctors taught by the master, the people will be fine.”

Lei Dian comforted her.

She nodded slightly and said nothing.

When Xu Wenxuan, Lin Kang and Song Zijie arrived with a carriage, the carriage was specially for Su Xiangning to sit in. At this time, they rode on the horse, Su Xiangning sat in the carriage, and set off.

Seeing Lin Tian and others leave, the Governor narrowed his eyes, not as friendly as he was in front of them, and spit.

“What a thing.”

If they get a chance, they must teach that ignorant Lin Tian a lesson. He hasn’t even returned the beating he received last time, and they will never let him go so easily.

If you still want to return to the capital, it depends on whether you can return alive.

When the refugees outside the city saw Lin Tian, they all came forward.

Their faces have improved a lot after being treated, and they are no longer as sick as before, as if they will die in the next moment.

“Benefactor, are you leaving?”

The refugees surrounded them, not getting too close. There were people standing on both sides, looking at them with tears in their eyes, and their eyes were full of gratitude.

“Yes, I’m going back to the capital. I feel relieved to see that everyone is no longer affected by the plague.”

Looking at the refugees in front of him, although some of them were ragged and even a little dirty.

But their mental outlook was not bad, which made Lin Tian feel relieved. At least these refugees no longer faced the threat of death.

“Big brother, will we meet again?”

Several children came forward and looked at Lin Tian crying. The parents of these children saw it and hurried forward to hold them back to avoid bumping into Lin Tian.

Lin Tian, who was riding a horse, turned over and got off the horse, indicating that their parents were fine. He took the initiative to face the children and squatted down to look at them at eye level.

Seeing this, the adults did not stop the children. They could not say anything too nice, and could only thank Lin Tian.

“We will meet again. You will get better and better. When the time comes, you can come to Beijing to find me. We will see each other in Beijing.”

Lin Tian touched the head of the child who cried the most.

The child stopped crying, looked at him with tears in his eyes, and sobbed with a heavy voice.

“Then big brother, we have an agreement.”

“Yes.”

After getting the agreement, the children stopped crying and stepped aside to make way.

Lin Tian got back on the horse, and the refugees stepped back a little, standing on both sides to see him off. They

did not disperse until they could no longer see the backs of Lin Tian and others.

Su Xiangning in the carriage lifted a corner of the curtain, looked at the situation outside, and pursed her lips slightly when she saw Lin Tian riding on the horse in high spirits.

The plague in Sujiang City could be controlled so quickly, all thanks to Lin Tian’s continuous busyness. It is rare to see such a person who is dedicated to the people, which is why she would expose her identity to help him.

“Miss Su, what’s the matter?”

Noticing Su Xiangning’s eyes, Lin Tian turned his head to look.

“Nothing.”

She shook her head and lowered the curtain.

Lin Tian didn’t take it to heart.

They had been walking for a while, and now they came to the vicinity of the dam, and Lin Tian’s eyes were drawn to the dam.

The dam was severely damaged, and many people died in the flood. Lin Tian originally thought that it was because the ancients did not do a good enough job in preventing floods, which led to such a serious flood.

However, when he saw the dam, he felt something was wrong. Even if it was because the river was too big and too fast, the dam should not be destroyed so badly.

“Let’s stop for a while.”

Lin Tian tightened the horse rope, stopped the horse and got off, and walked towards the direction of the dam.

“What’s going on?”

Xu Wenxuan and others stopped and asked in confusion.

Song Zijie also came to the dam.

Lei Dian and Xu Wenxuan also wanted to go over, but when they saw the carriage and thought of Su Xiangning, they stayed around and did not move.

Seeing someone guarding Su Xiangning, Lin Kang did not stay and followed Lin Tian.

Su Xiangning in the carriage lifted the curtain and looked in their direction.

“Master Lin, do you suspect that there is something wrong with the dam?”

Song Zijie, who was following behind Lin Tian, asked. Looking at the dam, he also felt that something seemed wrong.

“No way, there would be a problem with the dam?”

Lin Kang widened his eyes, a little unbelievable.

“That’s right, we’ll know after we take a look.”

When he came to the dam, Lin Tian squatted down to check the materials for building the dam. He picked up a piece and rubbed it in his hands. The mud and sand scattered without much effort, and even a lot of dead grass was seen in it.

Song Zijie also went to look through the wreckage and found that it was all like this, with a lot of dead grass.

“Normal dam materials, is this the case?”

Lin Tian hesitated for a moment before saying.

“I don’t think so. The material can’t withstand the raging river at all.”

“Could the material really be adulterated?”

At this point, Lin Tian’s face darkened. This is related to so many lives.

If the flood could have been prevented, it was not prevented because of the adulteration of the material, and the plague was caused. It’s simply unscrupulous!

“There is no definite evidence of what happened. Ask someone to come and take a look to know whether the dam is adulterated. If it is really adulterated, who did it?”

Song Zijie said in a low voice.

Looking at the miserable state of the dam, Lin Tian frowned. He first suspected the governor, but there was no evidence, and it was not ruled out that it was done by his subordinates.

At this time, Song Zijie thought of the luxurious furnishings in the governor’s room.

“Do you still remember the furnishings in the governor’s room? Each one is very valuable. He is a governor, where did he get so many good things? Even if it was given by others, who would give so many valuable furnishings? The position of the governor is not worth someone giving such precious things.”
