"Your efforts in Zhuyuan City that day were not in vain." Yan Huaiwen said: "Some people came here with their families."
"It's true!" Yan Yu became happy: "I knew there would be sensible people who knew the danger of siding with King Qi."
They are the bright and righteous people, and it will definitely not be a loss if they come here.
Yan Huaiwen: "At this time, the situation with Xizhou can still last for a while. The people fled their hometowns. Because of the prince's son, the King of Qi can still tolerate a little or two. Once the other party realizes that they cannot replace people and go back, they will become angry and start a war.
Stand up."
Tianyou preached in both cities, and Zhuyuan City had more time, so it was more affected.
How could ordinary people have the ambition to rebel and rule the roost? After confirming that King Qi's rebellion was true, they would be frightened to death.
This temporary method during wartime was also called a life-saving talisman by the people of Zhu Yuan Dynasty. Once it was released, it entered the heart.
The first ones to come were Fuze.
The life-preserving talisman is dry branches and dead grass, which can assist in burning.
The few people selected by Yan Huaiwen were sent back to Zhuyuan. All they had to do was tell what they saw and heard. The fire had started and the east wind was blowing from heaven.
The swordsmen and soldiers have not met on the battlefield.
The battle for the human heart begins first.
"Those in high positions often cannot see the low places. The people they regard as dust are the foundation of Xizhou's strong army." Yan Huaiwen deliberately taught her and said slowly: "When two armies confront each other, they are not just fighting on the battlefield."
"The King of Qi's wealth was accumulated in the mineral deposits. After months and months of conquering the people and working hard, he still felt that it was not enough. It spread to the neighboring mansions. Banditry was breeding in Leshan, people were plundered and trafficked, and they were extremely vicious. There were numerous dead bones under the mines. These were all the evil deeds of the King of Qi."
"Under his cruel rule, the people were uneasy and rebellious, leading to rebellion and chaos."
"On the other hand, Guanzhou, a fiefdom of the British King, has endured ten years of hard work and failed to win a single cent from the people. Now it has gained greater power in defeating the Beirong. Comparing the two..." Yan Huaiwen raised his eyebrows gently: "The people's hearts will return to their own."
Water can carry a boat but also capsize it... He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world...
Shocking words like these passed through Yan Yu's mind.
Shut up, she couldn't say a word, she could only think secretly to herself.
So, in layman's terms, this is to instigate rebellion first, no, to persuade your family, neighbors, and friends to escape from the rebel territory and fall into the arms of Guanzhou.
So how can this family of soldiers fight?
The ties are all on the opposite side.
Oops, so confused!
"When everyone comes back, you will take them all back to the village." Yan Huaiwen said.
He wouldn't feel at ease if these people were placed elsewhere.
"Whether it's building a wall or transporting stones, it's all up to you. I will discuss with the great master and temporarily set up a register with them. If they are willing to live in Huju permanently, they can also be resettled as refugees and the land is divided to open up wasteland."
"Are you all coming to our village?" Yan Yu thought for a while and said, "There are too many people and the village can't accommodate them."
"Let's set up a tent to live in for the time being. Anyone who can come here at this time will have some wealth. We only need to encircle a place for them, set up the rules, and there is no need to worry about it."
Yan Huaiwen said again: "Now that people are here, we have to protect them. The Yan family army can just patrol more often."
The word "Yan Jiajun" was shouted by everyone in the village, young and old, and she and her father also yelled. But when I heard it from my uncle, even though Yan Yu was a bit thick-skinned, she was still a little embarrassed.
"Uncle, let's just talk privately. Don't tell anyone else. Externally, we are now called Yan Ziqi. We can do it in a small camp. We are not qualified for this army now."
Yan Huaiwen couldn't help laughing and suppressed the raised corners of his lips.
"Uncle, wait a minute. Xiaoer, let me know when the Yan Family Army will be completed."
Yan Yu nodded heavily and immediately made a big cake for him: "I will work harder to form an army as soon as possible and wait for the name of Yan Jiajun to rise. Uncle, I will arrange for a few people to follow you every day to protect your safety.
If you have a master, you can also make arrangements, such as matching horses..."
"By the way, uncle, there is one more thing."
"speak."
"Weren't the cattle in our village rented out? Now that the spring plowing is over, the cattle can be brought back. Some of the people who rented cattle came to ask if they could continue to rent them. I thought, first ask the county government.
What charter."
Yan Huaiwen: "The government allowed them to rent it with silver."
Yan Yu nodded. She also wanted to rent out some of the cattle to relieve the pressure on raising cattle in the village.
"Then let's follow." Yan Yu said with a smile: "I heard that some people secretly use oxen to pull carts, pull people to carry their feet, etc. Hehe, actually it's nothing. When they save enough money,
If you want to buy a cow, let’s sell it.”
Yan Yu talked about a few more things at home in the village.
Li Xuemei brought Yan Qianchu and Mrs. Tian back from Fucheng.
The Yan family's charcoal business is relatively stable, and many merchants are willing to continue to care about the good cause of lowering charcoal prices in winter.
The tofu shop has a steady stream of water every day.
On the other hand, the shop that opened in front of me has been out of stock in recent days.
She didn't have time to make the soap, shampoo, and her own toilet paper, so she had to restock the items from other stores and sell them.
Because the ladies in the village take turns to visit the store, the current Yan's store has a tendency to be converted into a direct-sales store for agricultural and sideline products...
"Is your eldest sister interested in that boy from the Cheng family?" Yan Huaiwen asked suddenly.
Yan Yu was talking loudly, like the crowing rooster at home, when she was suddenly pinched by Grandma Rong.
The invisible hand restrained her, and she was silent for a long time.
I don’t know how to answer, but sometimes I just answer.
"Uncle, I don't know!" Yan Yu said innocently.
Unfortunately, Yan Huaiwen already understood. He was silent for a moment and said, "It's too late. Let's take a rest."
Yan Yu was lying on the kang, turning over restlessly.
regret!
What kind of reaction was that just now? Didn’t it expose the eldest sister?
It's so unnatural, the uncle must have seen through her at a glance.
Worried, worried...
Regular little calls sounded.
Yan Huaiwen smoothed the quilt that she had kicked up, and lay down straight again, his eyes slightly opened, and he was in a daze.
Mr. Cheng not only asked Mrs. Tian and his younger siblings to deliver a message.
I also asked Mr. Tian to discuss the matter.
Full of sincerity.
Cheng family.
Master Cheng had accumulated a lot of experience, and after the King of England succeeded to the throne, he was able to reuse him and take charge of the court's money bag.
Although he is stingy, his family tradition is quite upright.
Being in-laws with Mr. Cheng...
I'm not worried that he's standing with the wrong person.
Many dignitaries in the court rose and fell due to the change of thrones.
Their family will go to Beijing in the future.
Yan Huaiwen once thought about letting Qian Chu marry in Beijing.
Being closer to home, he can take more care of her.
He, Yan Huaiwen, has gone through many trials and tribulations, and he is not only very accurate in judging people, but he is also about 70% or 80% accurate.
And with the advantage of foresight, he will definitely be able to choose a good man for his daughter.
Now I think about it.
The young talents that catch my eye in my memory are either already married, or they are young and successful, and become romantic.
Those who are calm and behave in a moderate manner are too mature. The rules are the rules, but is the family too dogmatic? Too strict?!
There are several adults whom he knows a lot about, has a tolerant nature, and is stable at home.
But this father is good, how can he know whether his son is like his father, his mother, or his ancestor?
The marriages of children from good families are usually decided early.
When will his family gain a foothold in the capital?
Chu'er can't delay.
The Cheng family will definitely live in Beijing in the future.
The family is poor.
You can give more dowry.
Cheng Lezhou's talents and learning are good in Guanzhou, but among the students in various prefectures, Guanzhou has always been at the bottom, and if he goes to higher education, he will feel inadequate.
If you go to Wuya Academy to study with Heng'er...
