Chapter 166 Refugees (Part 2)
"Song Jiu, Han doesn't want to make a contribution, just say something!"
Song Jiu woke up and realized that Han Chongyun's current situation was only eight words. He did not seek merit, but did not seek merit, but did not seek merit. Why did he want merit? He was harmed. Of course, it would not work if he had done anything. Whatever he said was great achievements would not work. Song Jiu also had a way. Han Chongyun was not without shortcomings. Being a Buddhist cannot be considered a shortcoming, but he could be used by himself.
Xu Xu said: "General Han, the speed of the construction site is gradually slowing down."
"What else are you talking about at this time?"
"There are bad news about floods everywhere, and I want to distinguish them from the seriousness. But flooding in the four states is not a bad thing."
"Nobody talks, how many people are homeless."
Those who believe in Buddhism are indeed different. Song Jiu smiled and said, "Not mentioning this, I mean the soil quality. The Yellow River flooded and flooded many farmlands, but the flood receded and the accumulation of silt was left behind. One was the saline-alkali that could wash away the land, and the other was the thin soil layer in the capital area, and a large amount of silt was left behind. The barren land would become a fertile land in the second year."
"Let your house watch."
"The problem is this. The family property has been washed away and the people are homeless. They have to solve the problem of accommodation, food, drink and accommodation. When the water recedes in spring next year, I don't know what to do, and I don't even have the seeds to sow. But can I change the angle? If the government organizes it, place these people on the river bank and turn them into civil servants. Now the two projects of the court, my three projects, require a large amount of manpower. The faster the speed, the less waste it is. The victims themselves can get a lot of wages. Even they are from
In the countryside, we can endure hardships, including women, can work. By next spring, with these people helping each other, even my project will be completely finished. They have food, drink, and live. Each household can bring back ten cents of money, and the cost of sowing, and the cost of living, and the cost of buying farm tools. And the arable land has accumulated silt, and the harvest will be ushered in a great harvest in autumn. Is it a killing of two birds with one stone? General Han believes in Buddhism, what is Buddha? Promote good and get rid of evil? This is the real act of accumulating virtue and doing good, rather than burning incense and worshiping Buddha."
Han Chongyun was moved and walked around to ask the servants to serve tea.
Song Jiu took a sip. He didn't drink it much. The Song Dynasty drank tea cakes, which were semi-fermented and had a very similar taste to later oolong tea. In fact, the best tea in the Song Dynasty also came from Wuyi Mountain in Jianzhou, Fujian. Song Jiu was used to drinking this tea, but some people like to put ginger, honey and various spices. It is said that there are many benefits. It is okay to put honey. If ginger and spices are added, Song Jiu really can't eat it. The Han family's tea seems to have ginger and spices.
Han Chongyun was kind-hearted. He made a gesture of giving good tea. He had been with Song Jiu for a long time. He had a complicated business in Hezhou and Song Jiu's affairs were even more complicated. Not only Hezhou, but also the school, his own projects and experiments.
Han Chongyun only cared about the two projects of the court. If Song Jiu had not helped and the students, his head would have hurt, and Song Jiu had so many, he was in order. Of course, he didn't know what the coordination method was. This made him admire him. The boy was a talent. However, he didn't know that his kindness was, and Song Jiu didn't appreciate it.
Han Chongyun didn't pay attention and asked: "Song Jiu, why didn't you report to the court and let Han say it?"
"A man's mouth is a saying, upwards is a saying, downwards is a saying. There are industries of me and the yamen on Hezhou. If most of the victims are resettled, they will work on those three projects. It was originally a good act, but if someone makes a fuss and says that I ignore the national disasters and the happiness of the victims, I will hire the victims as the people. Then no matter how white my whole body is, it will be dyed black. General Han is not like that, although the son has invested more than 2,000 yuan in it, it is just a small number. With your reputation and influence, there will be no controversy in it."
Han Chongyun refused to say anything and said, "Song Jiu, how did you think of this?"
"In winter, Your Majesty asked me to shine on Shu to see if I could come up with a strategy to resettle refugees. Where can I think of it? I was so dizzy after reading history books these days."
"Make you want to resettle the refugee strategy?" Han Chongyun laughed and said after laughing: "Wang Quanbin is here in Bashu Hu, but you don't have to worry. Your Majesty asked you to see it, just go and take a look. Riding a horse is very fast. This is different from when you go to Jinghu. That was what you took the initiative to write to Pan Mei. This time it was Lu Yuqing's idea, but he just couldn't think of it. What does it have to do with you?"
"Yes, it's still early in winter anyway."
Han Chongyun got up in his heart. It seemed that his two children were close to this kid. The emperor suppressed his old ministers and wanted to remove the influence of Emperor Shizong, so he searched to support the newcomers. I am afraid that this kid would occupy an important position on this group of people. He also took a sip of tea ceremony: "But these two refugees are of different natures. If you want to take this opportunity to observe, you can't see anything. In a few months, you can come to Bashu. If you can think of it, you can come back quickly. Don't learn to run around in Jinghu. If the refugees have misunderstandings, you won't even use bows and arrows, and you won't know how to die at that time."
Song Jiu despises him. What can he do if he can use bows and arrows?
These generals may think differently from ordinary people.
Han Chongyun is not a pure military general. He is very smart when he can get to his level. This kid is on the road and values favors. So he gave him a hand and said, "Do you know what happened to the two rivers (referring to Sichuan, East Sichuan and West Sichuan, also known as Bashu)?"
"I know, Your Majesty has shown me some newspapers."
"Speak and listen."
Song Jiujiang saw the diary that day and told him.
"What else?"
"And..." Song Jiu thought about it, and then told some rumors he heard, saying, "These are all rumors I heard from the market, and they are not very reliable."
"It's not very accurate, I'll tell you." Song Jiu thought to the darkness, because he was too dark, not exactly what he thought. Zhao Kuangyin's edict must have been wrong, but after hearing this, he issued an edict to correct it in a timely manner, explaining four points: stabilizing order, giving preferential treatment to the people, and exempting taxes from disasters. Disaster refers to military disasters, appeasement of the officials of the Later Shu, and retaining them all, pardoning bandits and thieves, and allowing them to return bandits to the people.
But it was not implemented well below. Wang Quanbin's Northern Army entered Yizhou, Meng Chang sent people to send money, wine and meat to comfort Cao Bin and Liu Guangyi's Eastern Army also came, and the same treatment was received. The Song envoy also came, and the same reward was still the same. This problem arose. The Northern Army felt that it was difficult to walk on the road, and there were many wars. There were many deaths. Now the same treatment was unbalanced. Liu Cao's Eastern Army did not think so. Shu Road was difficult to walk, but how far it was. He went from Tokyo to Jinghu to Jiangling, and he went around. He could not blame us if he didn't fight. We fought, and they surrendered before they even fought. You can still use the name of war to grab it. We didn't even have the chance to grab it.
The two families started to compete for merit, and Cao Bin asked Wang Quanbin to return the court. Can Wang Quanbin pay it back? Why did I get it back? I haven't made enough money yet? The superiors were fighting and said they wanted to return the court. The soldiers below were even more anxious, so they fought to grab it everywhere, including Liu Guangyi and Cao Bin's subordinates. However, they were relatively more restrained and committed less evil. Everyone was together. Zhao Kuangyin asked Wang Jitao to escort Meng Chang to Beijing. Wang Jitao was also unhappy, and I didn't make enough money either. But the emperor's order was difficult to violate. He spoke directly to Meng Chang, you have to give me some things, beautiful palace maids and treasures. Meng Chang had to give it, but Wang Jitao had no choice but to share the spoils. The subordinates ran to Wang Quanbin to report, and Wang Quanbin refused to let Wang Jitao escort him.
Later Shu was too rich. Wang Quanbin was so angry that he was fond of his eyes, but there were also civil officials in Later Shu. Li Tinggui's family did not have much money and did not give gifts. Wang Quanbin made an excuse to punish Li Tinggui for his crime. Li Tinggui was frightened and went to find Kang Yanze, Dulin. Kang Yanze said, "If you have enough desires, you will be in trouble." Li Tinggui understood and gathered the only property in his family, bought a few women and some money, and gave it to Wang Quanbin, but he did not punish him.
When Lu Yuqing arrived in Yizhou, he killed a general and Yizhou was invaded, but it was only Yizhou. First, the general Shangguan Jin of Shu rebelled and surrounded Zizhou City at night. There were only 300 soldiers in Zizhou City. Feng Zan, who was guarding the city, had a lot of tricks. Seeing Shangguan Jin was surrounded by night, he knew that he was guilty, so he asked the people who beat Geng to fight the fifth update as soon as possible. Shangguan Jin was attacking the city, but when he heard the sound of the fifth update in the city, he scattered with a bang. Feng Zan attacked and captured Shangguan Jin and beheaded, and the rebellion was quelled.
Before Wang Quanbin saw the crisis, Zhao Kuangyin issued an edict to send the surrendered troops from both rivers to the capital. That is to prevent rebellion, and arrange them to the vicinity of the capital, either for the people or for the soldiers. When they arrived in the capital, they dared not cause rebellion. Without these soldiers, the two rivers could quickly settle down. However, this was more than 100,000 surrendered troops, and Wang Quanbin was still greedy. Then Song Jiu saw what happened in the newspaper.
Not only Quan Shixiong rebelled, the Song army itself was in chaos. When Song Jiu saw Cao Bin defeating Lu Han in the diary, Lu Han was the commander of the Hujie Army of the Song army. Because of the uneven distribution of spoils, he was furious and joined more than a dozen Song army generals and subordinates, Liu Ze, the general of Quan Shixiong, and had a force of 50,000 troops. He occupied Jiazhou and killed the imperial governor Tongzong. Fortunately, Lu Han did not have outstanding military capabilities, and Cao Bin only had more than 10,000 people, but he was defeated by Cao Bin and fled to Yazhou.
Recently, Han Chongyun also received news that Kang Yanze performed well this time. Wang Quanbin used a knife to kill people, asking Kang Yanze to lead a hundred people to Puzhou as governor, but there were 50,000 rebels in Puzhou. The ending is unknown.
That is, the entire Sichuan is now in chaos, including the conflict between the Eastern Route Army and the Northern Route Army, the internal contradiction between the Northern Route Army, the contradiction between the generals of the two armies, the contradiction between the commander and the soldiers, the rebel army of the Song army, and the rebel army of the Shu Kingdom itself. Not only refugees, but if Song Jiu did not understand this situation and was confused, he would not know how he would die.
And it was so chaotic that not only Lu Yuqing, but also Zhao Kuangyin didn't know how to deal with it.
"Is Lu Han the general of my court?"
"The colonel, the military leader, cannot be considered a general."
"How could this be?"
"There are too many money in the two rivers, and they are all red-eyed. Song Jiu, don't tell me what I said. Your Majesty asked you to see it, just go and see it, but you have to grasp the right position clearly, or say a few official words, and that will be a complete success."
"That refugee..."
"The refugee! You are still thinking about refugee! Don't worry, you are just a seventh-rank small scattered official, and there are some talented people in the court. What does it have to do with you?"
"But……"
"Why can't you turn around? You will be rewarded for your merits and punished for your mistakes. This is the rule set by Shizong. Do you know how much is the class iron this year?"
"I really don't know." Song Jiu said, asking Zhao Kuangyi, but Zhao Kuangyi did not answer, just said yes.
"I don't know this month. From New Year's Day to July, the three-silicon iron is more than 3.9 million kilograms. Otherwise, do you think the officials of the court let you use iron? Just this contribution can afford your official position." Han Chongyun finished speaking and looked at Song Jiu's face. This number is a terrible number. The more popular the gunpowder, the greater the amount of iron to be opened, and the number will increase by the end of the year. Maybe this year's iron can reach 7 million kilograms, which is more than three times higher!
