Luo Youdu looked at Cui Yan's hesitation and knew that he was worried about taking the blame. The older he got, the more demonic he lived. When faced with something that was about to happen, he usually liked to wait until it happened before appearing. Then it would become unmanageable.
In the end, it was not him who took the blame, but the people responsible for disaster relief, and perhaps himself, the Kaifeng Prefecture's Cao Cao who joined the army.
Once this refugee breaks out, Kaifeng Mansion will probably turn into a mess. Luo Youdu has no confidence in dealing with the people's livelihood issues in Kaifeng Mansion under such circumstances.
Facing refugees who are starving to the core, a wrong decision may lead to a military disaster.
I have been working hard for more than a month, and my resume is not bad, but I don't want to be stained by a natural disaster.
After a moment of hesitation, Luo Youdu said loudly: "To be sure, we scholars should worry about the world's worries first, and rejoice after the world's happiness. How can we look forward and backward?"
Without hesitation, he uttered the warning words of Fan Zhongyan, a famous prime minister of later generations.
"Be anxious when the world is worried first, then be happy when the world is happy."
Cui Yan recited something silently, feeling his body heat up slightly, and his eyes flashed with the sparkle of his youth.
We are all scholars, who has never been young?
This sentence of Wen Zhenggong has great influence.
"Let's go! I will take you to see the official."
Cui Yan immediately made up his mind and led Luo Youdu into the palace.
Of course, with Luo Youdu's level, he still couldn't face the saint directly. Just like last time, he was waiting outside.
After a while, a guard came to report.
"Luo Canjun, the officials will ask you to come in and have a chat."
Luo Youdu saw Guo Rong again. The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty had bloodshot eyes and looked like he had been working hard for a long time.
Besides Cui Yan, there were two other people in the main hall, whom Luo Youdu didn't know.
Guo Rong did not be polite to Luo Youdu and said bluntly: "Are there really going to be refugees gathering in Kaifeng?"
Luo Youdu bowed and replied: "There have been two cases in Kaifeng Prefecture today, and there should be more cases that have not been reported. I specially asked people to go to Kaifeng Wharf to inquire about the situation, and many merchant ships returning from the Yellow River waterway also received corresponding answers.
But there are groups of refugees, supporting each other, heading south along the Bian River to Kaifeng. What they saw should be only a small number, and within ten days at most, a large number of refugees will gather in Kaifeng."
When Guo Rong heard this, he looked at the other two people in the hall: "Wensu, Qiwu, what do you think?"
Only then did Luo Youdu realize that the two people in the palace were none other than Prime Minister Fan Zhi, Fan Wensu and Wang Pu and Wang Qiwu of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Fan Zhi's greatest strength is his erudition, and his memory is astonishing. He remembers various personnel transfers, legal regulations, and the Ministry of Household's storage of money, food, and population.
They ignored the problem of the flow of refugees. Fortunately, Luo Shenjun saw the opportunity and the ministers were not caught off guard."
Wang Pu was kind-hearted and most considerate of the people. He said: "We should prepare porridge sheds immediately, clean up the residence, and strictly control the refugees so as not to disrupt the people's livelihood in Kaifeng."
Fan Zhi added: "It is necessary to prepare medicinal materials and water in advance. Places where refugees gather are most susceptible to plague outbreaks. Refugees must be arranged to wash frequently to avoid this disaster."
Wang Pu added again: "It just so happened that all the people in Kaifeng gathered in the north of the city, making the north of the city overcrowded, while the south of the city was desolate and defeated. They can be directly recruited to clear out the south of the city for future expansion of Kaifeng."
Luo Youdu looked at Fan Zhi and Wang Pu in amazement. He was impressed from the bottom of his heart. He was able to hold the position of prime minister and indeed had extraordinary abilities. With just one word from you and me, the general process of accepting and resettling the people was arranged.
.
Guo Rong couldn't help but nod, feeling much relieved.
Thanks to Guo Wei's recuperation and recuperation in the three years before the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Great Zhou Dynasty had a large amount of food stored in its treasury, which was fully able to cope with this crisis.
Guo Rong was also a courageous person and immediately issued an order: Prime Minister Wang Pu took the lead, and the Secretary of Household Affairs Zhang Zhao cooperated with the disaster relief. At the same time, he also issued an order: "The Kaifeng Prefecture is in charge of the people's livelihood in the capital, and the victims are also the Great Zhouzi.
The people are among them. People's livelihood matters are still decided by the Kaifeng government."
The next few days turned out just as Luo Youdu expected.
The flow of refugees gradually gathered into a large army and began to flock to Kaifeng Mansion.
After all, Kaifeng is the center of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the holy place in the hearts of the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
In just ten days, the number of refugees reached 60,000.
At this time, the Zhou Dynasty was still relatively wealthy, and Guo Rong was not like Yang Guang, who clung to the grain depot and would rather take advantage of the Wagang Army than use it to provide disaster relief.
As long as they have food to eat, the refugees can be well controlled.
Of course it's not absolute.
When refugees and the people of Kaifeng Prefecture live together, there will inevitably be friction. There are many hooligans among the refugees who are good at eating and lazy. Some of the hooligans in Kaifeng also pretend to be refugees, stealing food and drink. All of these will inevitably cause friction.
Luo Youdu's workload has increased by more than ten times. He has to queue up to hear and resolve cases, and there is no time for rest.
Cui Yan, the top-ranking second-rank official in Kaifeng Mansion, also had to step down. He helped Luo Youdu in the trial of the case and acted as a peacemaker for the people of Kaifeng.
Of course, there were exceptions for those local gangsters who took advantage of the chaos to cause trouble. At this time, Luo Youdu, no matter how big or small the crime he committed, especially those with criminal records, would directly deal heavy blows. Either beat them half to death, or directly exile them.
The Zhou Dynasty had not yet been unified, and there was no special place for exile, so they were sent to the mines to mine.
This frightened the gangsters in Kaifeng Mansion. They did not dare to mention Luo Youdu's name in private and called him Xiao Yan Luo.
Luo Youdu also received the title of Little Yama.
After learning this from Zhang Kou, Luo Youdu was so angry that he scolded his mother.
He was going for Master Qingtian, so why did he get the title of Little Yama?
If you don’t know how to give a nickname, what would you call me Little Yama?
How small!
Doesn’t Yama sound good?
Big is a bit exaggerated, but Zhongyan is also fine.
However, the name Xiao Yan Luo is surprisingly useful. Since Luo Youdu spread this name, the gangsters in Kaifeng City have become more peaceful. By the way, the gangsters among the refugees have also become more honest.
"call!"
Luo Youdu took a long breath and finally had some free time.
Cui Yan wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was quite old, and his workload has increased greatly these days, and his face turned a little pale.
"Why don't you go back and rest while you wait? I'll just take care of it here in Kaifeng Mansion."
Luo Youdu said with some concern.
Cui Yan shook his head slightly: "This old man can still hold on." He said happily: "Thankfully I listened to your advice, otherwise I would not have imagined the consequences. Today at the court meeting, Fan Zhi and Wang Pu
The two prime ministers were full of praise for you, saying that no one who is good at fighting has great achievements, and that you are the first to contribute to Kaifeng's current stability. The two of them, plus Wei Renpu, all three of them unanimously submitted letters of recommendation to the officials, for
This was even debated in the temple. Your saying, 'Be anxious when the world is worried first, and be happy when the world is happy later' also caused the officials to order someone to make a plaque and send it to the Council Hall and the Privy Council as a warning."
