Chapter 35 Face Project
Several adults were in high spirits, and immediately waved their hands: "My fellows, why are you so polite? Just say whatever you have to say."
"It is my nephew's duty to supply medicinal materials to the official family, but the number of refugees is increasing every day, and everyone needs to eat. Even if the money given to my nephew is used to buy food, it will still be insufficient, so they
I want to apply to reclaim wasteland and cultivate land to support myself."
"You want to farm?" Chen Liang was surprised.
Although there were disaster victims who wandered to other places before, and then reclaimed wasteland and planted land, and then took root there again. But the Chinese have a hometown complex. Most of the wanderers died on the way, and those who were lucky enough to survive hoped to return to their hometown.
"Yes, they want to settle here."
Hiss, when the adults heard this, they began to make calculations in their minds.
If that's true, that's a good thing.
In ancient societies with underdeveloped productivity, the number of people under their control was also an indicator of officials' ability to govern. The larger the population, the faster the growth, which means the better your political performance.
After Wang Yannian thought for a while, he came up with a plan: "Normally, the area around Longshan is sparsely populated, so it is okay to provide a place for the refugees. It's just a matter of settling thousands of people. It doesn't seem reasonable to not report it at all. Look at this
how……"
It turned out that he wanted to report the matter to the incoming imperial envoy, who would then report it to the court as appropriate.
After listening to what he said, Changsheng smiled in his heart: You are very good at calculating, Mr. Wang. I left this matter to the imperial envoy, and I have to take credit for it. If it is someone else's problem, I can't blame myself.
The most important thing is to tell yourself that if you want your plan to pass, you have to take action against the Imperial Envoy.
It's really like killing three birds with one stone.
As expected, Mr. Wang has been in officialdom for a long time, and his brain works very quickly, and he immediately came up with the most beneficial method for himself.
Chang Sheng smiled and said, "Okay, for the sake of so many people, I will help you again."
"Uncle Wang's suggestion is excellent, but I don't know who the imperial envoy is and when he will come. My nephew, I can make preparations in advance."
Chen Liang picked up an official document from the table: "My dear nephew, this official document says that 'Fifth Prince Yang Jun inspected the Guanlong counties on the order of the emperor.' Well, the time is the day after tomorrow."
Changsheng saw this posture and immediately understood that he had already prepared it for himself.
As expected, they are all the veterans of the court. You think they are talking to you about herbal medicine, but in fact, the real purpose is probably to prepare for this biggest 'face project'.
…
"The fifth prince will arrive in Wenshui County the day after tomorrow..." Chen Liang became a little nervous when he thought of this. His face, which was full of smiles just now, became a little stiff now.
"I have inquired clearly. No matter in Jingzhao, Beidi, or Anding, what the fifth prince saw were empty granaries, messy streets and mountains of dead bodies."
"Are these places so desolate?" Chang Sheng was puzzled.
"If anything, those counties ordered the food to be hidden! Zhang Wenshun, the governor of Jingzhao, and Li Wenshan and Li Tongpan of Beidi, all of them are like this!"
"I heard that Judge Li Tong of the North was also a new official. He encountered this kind of disaster that had not happened in ten years just after he took office. He was so worried that he was very worried. Fortunately, an old official came up with an idea to let the refugees each
Standing on both sides of the street with a broken bowl, it looks like you are welcoming the leader of the Beggar Clan."
When Changsheng heard this, he almost spit out the tea he just drank.
How can you welcome an angel? A beggar gang leader has just taken over.
Chen Liang glanced at Changsheng and was very satisfied with the effect of his words, and then said: "Although they don't want to tell us, hum, but I still found out all about their little tricks!"
In any case, Changsheng still admires Chen Tongshou very much in terms of gathering information. If you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be in danger.
In just a few days, I could clearly detect the movements of various counties in Guanlong, which I have to say is quite a skill.
From this point of view, the people in the brother counties did not inform Fufeng County about these little tricks of "face engineering".
Everyone is now engaged in a competition to see who is worse off. The prize is the government's relief food. For this, everyone is going crazy.
"Since we prepared later than them and have fallen behind, we must do better than them!" Mr. Zhou Mu Wang slapped the table, "You can feel free to speak out if you have any ideas."
He spoke to everyone, but looked at Changsheng.
Li Yuanxian said: "According to the itinerary, the Fifth Highness would first go to Anding for inspection before coming to us. However, because of our achievements in fighting the epidemic, the Fifth Highness temporarily decided to come directly from the North. According to the itinerary, their fastest is the day after tomorrow.
We can arrive in Wenshui County in the morning." He tapped the table with his fingers, "We only have one day left, do we want to implement the previous plan?"
The previous plan? This is the first time Changsheng has heard of it. Has his father discussed any plan with these adults?
Wang Yannian and Chen Liang looked at each other and after confirming each other's thoughts, Chen Liang introduced the previous plan to Changsheng.
This is also a plan to strengthen the walls and clear the country. The content is as follows:
Hide all the vegetables in the cellar and seal them with soil.
Keep at most half of the food and hide the rest.
Farm tools, iron tools, livestock, cloth and other materials were all dragged into the mountains, leaving no one behind, so that even if the imperial envoy came, they would not be able to find them.
The carriages were all lined up to Qianyuan, saying they were transporting grain, and they would come back after they left.
Stones must be placed on the farmland, holes must be drilled into the roofs of the houses, and the walls must be covered with locust corpses...
There are dozens of such damaging tricks in total.
…
After Chang Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
As long as this plan is fully followed, Chang Sheng can guarantee that if what the fifth prince sees in the other counties is an army of 'beggars', compared with these carefully designed Fufeng County, those places will definitely be regarded as a 'paradise'
.
Amidst the gazes of several adults asking for their opinions, Changsheng touched his chin and thought quietly.
If you adults could ignore Chang Sheng's opinions before, after just a few days of her magical operation, the two senior leaders of the state and county have placed Chang Sheng in the position of a genius prodigy.
On such an important issue, it is always wrong to ask the thoughts of this child who constantly surprises and shocks them.
After a moment of burning incense, Changsheng raised his head and said calmly: "My lords, my nephew has just thought about it carefully..."
Unexpectedly, after saying a few words, Wang Yannian interrupted her with a wave of his hand, and looked at each other with a smile, "My dear nephew, my dear nephew, I'm afraid you may have thought wrong this time."
However, before he could finish speaking, Changsheng suddenly emphasized his tone and bowed deeply, "Uncle Wang! Please allow me to finish!"
Mr. Wang looked at Changsheng who was bowing to the ground with some surprise. He felt a familiar feeling from her firm tone. He immediately stopped his smile and turned serious, "My dear nephew, please tell me..."
