Li Rui rushed over and collected the cattle and sheep.
That's when I felt relieved.
But then I became worried. You have to know that these cattle and sheep need to eat fodder, and there is not much fodder in the city now. What is edible has begun to be cooked into porridge and supplied to outside the city.
Li Rui looked at it carefully.
The cattle and sheep here are mixed.
However, the quantity is definitely large, and in this era, the price level is not low either.
A finished sheep costs between four and five taels of silver. And the price of a cow is even more expensive. Because the role of cattle is too great. In a sense, if you want to buy cattle from outside the Great Wall, it is also expensive.
Very difficult.
So there are more sheep than cattle here.
Even so, it is still packed inside!
"Go and call the cook who is cooking for the victims!"
One advantage of cattle and sheep is that these materials will not spoil. As long as these cattle and sheep do not die, their meat will not rot. It is possible to gather so many cattle and sheep in a short period of time.
It can be seen that it is not easy either.
However, it’s a drop in the bucket!
Zhang Shou has already counted the number of victims outside the city. There are more than 8,000 people in total, and at least 200 sheep must be killed a day. And all the cattle and sheep here can last for a while.
But the account cannot be calculated like this.
Cattle and sheep also need to eat.
Moreover, these cattle and sheep also need to be fed fodder.
Two months is already a very optimistic estimate.
"Almost, enough!"
After Li Rui took a careful inventory, he took a deep breath and said softly: "Let's go outside the city!"
When these cattle and sheep came in, they went through the west gate, and they were relatively secretive. However, they were still seen by the people outside, which caused heated discussions among the crowd.
Some said that this was from the official’s house and they couldn’t touch any of it!
Some people also say that King Liang made this specially for them because he felt sorry for them.
So the moment they saw Li Rui appear, everyone's eyes were full of hope.
Li Rui walked up to the high platform skillfully, and at this time, Xu Tong quietly came to Li Rui's side, looking around vigilantly.
"fine!"
Li Rui said softly to Xu Tong, then looked around everyone, his eyes gradually changed from serious to relaxed, and then continued: "I believe many people have seen it. A large number of cattle and sheep came to Hedong County today. These
You should have your own guess in your mind as to what the cattle and sheep are used for!"
"good!"
Li Rui shouted: "These cattle and sheep are for you!"
"But these cattle and sheep are not free. From today on, if I want to recruit you, I will use these cattle and sheep as the price. From today on, follow my order and rebuild your home!"
"Everyone who has a bow can work hard and can work hard. Anyone who participates can eat these beef and mutton!"
Li Rui looked at the people below, with a hint of majesty in his voice.
It seems to be able to intimidate everyone.
Everyone in the venue fell silent.
"Of course, the old, weak, sick and disabled don't need to work hard, and they can drink broth every day. However, the meat is left to those who sweat and sweat!" Li Rui raised his hand gently: "I don't know what Liangzhou has to do with it.
What does it mean to you all, this is your home, here are your relatives, here are your fields, and here are the concerns in your hearts!"
"And this is also my king's Liangzhou. So the moment I came here, I vowed to make Liangzhou rich!" Li Rui said with anger in his voice: "Everything starts from today.
, Starting from today, Liangzhou will become different!"
"Tonight, we will cook the sheep and slaughter the cows!"
There was a hint of coldness in Li Rui's voice, and then he continued: "The whole world celebrates! As long as they are outside this city and are registered, everyone can receive a bowl of broth. But starting from tomorrow, I think
If you want to eat meat, it depends on whether you can work hard! I can tell you that tomorrow, we will clear the river and build a dam!"
"The Qinghe River is flooded. But we can't defeat it just because of the floods!"
"Since floods have occurred, we will strengthen the dikes and widen the river channels! In this way, there will not be so many people displaced next year!"
Li Rui's voice was extremely inflammatory.
"I, the king, will realize one by one the ambitions I set before I came here."
In this era, what is the most precious?
Labor force!
Relief through work!
This is the only way to solve the problem. Otherwise, where will so much money come from to hire people to strengthen the river embankments and widen the river channels? This all requires money.
The most important thing is that these people were born and grew up here. No one is more enthusiastic than them in building their hometown. What's more, having meat to eat is a great thing for them now!
When Li Rui came down from the high platform, the people cheered enthusiastically one after another!
Like a tsunami, each wave is higher than the next!
"Young Master..." Xu Tong's eyes showed a trace of shock, and he said hurriedly: "I didn't expect that Wen Shuliang would actually do it!"
"He has no choice but to do it. Otherwise, he will not be able to sit down as the governor of Hexi County!" Li Rui said with a hint of helplessness: "Some of the male bridesmaids have just made such a decision.
If I want to work part-time, even if I want to tease her, I can only wait until autumn to settle the score!"
"Don't worry, the grasshoppers after autumn can only jump around for a few days!"
Xu Tong chuckled and said disdainfully.
Li Rui was a little speechless. To be honest, these cattle and sheep were too expensive. Fortunately, the money spent was not money, but weapons in the arsenal. However, the arsenal still needs to be expanded.
Although Li Rui had the intention to forge some good weapons for the three guards, that was just an afterthought.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
At this time, Zhang Shou hurried over, with anxious eyes, and asked: "The imperial court, there is news from the imperial court!"
"Oh? What should I say?"
Li Rui's eyes were filled with joy and he asked hurriedly.
Zhang Shou grunted, swallowed his saliva and said: "Your Majesty has withdrawn five hundred thousand taels of silver from the treasury without giving a single grain of food. Now the money has been set off and will be taken to Liangzhou in three days. But...
…”
"But what?"
There was a bit of dissatisfaction in Li Rui's eyes: "If you have anything to say, just say it!"
"This time, in addition to the convoy escorting the money, there is also a supervisor responsible for monitoring the flow of the money! Every transaction must be reported to him!" Zhang Shou said with a hint of helplessness in his voice, and then continued.
: "I'm just afraid that the person who comes here is not good!"
