With money in the hands of the common people, the shops that had remained closed, unwilling or afraid to reopen, began to gradually open. Additionally, some families started discreetly selling grain, significantly alleviating the government's relief efforts.
At this time, the second batch of relief grain from Yu State arrived.
The students from the academy not only excel in disaster relief but also in shaping public opinion. As soon as the relief grain arrived in Youzhou, they spread the word: the Great General had sent a second batch of relief grain, and each county government would receive grain in due time. Although the county government would not be overflowing with grain, survival would not be an issue.
The will to survive among the people of Youzhou surged instantly, and everyone worked hard to earn more money to buy grain.
Each county had special positions for children, the elderly, and the weak, ensuring that everyone could be utilized to earn money for grain.
