please make me king

Chapter 1078 Disaster Relief Strategy
"Oh, why don't you see me for more than a month? King Shun, you not only have a lot of wives and concubines, but also a house full of children?" Ding Qirui, the magistrate of Yan'an who came to welcome Zhang Shun, couldn't help laughing when he saw Zhang Shun, who was dragging his family. road.

Zhang Shun was originally humorous and magnanimous.

Outside of official business, he often likes to joke with people, and everyone is used to teasing each other.

It's just that these very common words were extremely harsh to Zhang Shun's ears.

He couldn't help sneering: "Although this king has many young children, he is not happy; Ding Zhizhou has many descendants, but he is not sad!"

Ding Qirui was stunned immediately when he heard the words, he couldn't believe his ears, such vicious words came from the mouth of King Shun who has always been lenient.

"Mr. Ding, please don't be upset. It just so happened that King Shun was in a bad mood today, and he angered you for no reason. Please forgive me for any offense!" Seeing Zhang Shun's expression, the red lady got off her horse and apologized for Zhang Shun.

"What's wrong with King Shun?" Although Ding Qirui was furious, he held back his displeasure.

"Ah!" The red lady sighed, "Did you see that these children were picked up by King Shun on the road!"

"Yan'an Mansion has experienced a severe drought year after year. Changing sons to eat, breaking bones to cook, King Shun blamed himself too much!"

"Because Mr. Ding is also the official of Yan'an's parents and never reported the disaster, King Shun was so angry that he spoke ill of each other!"

"Thank you ma'am for your advice!" Ding Qirui didn't understand what he said, it was Zhang Shun who blamed himself for not fulfilling his responsibility to know the prefecture of Yan'an.

Zhang Shun said that "although there are many young children of this king, it is not enough to be happy", because these children are adopted by the hungry people; The common people change their sons and eat but remain indifferent.

To be honest, is Zhang Shun's accusation justified?Have!

After Ding Qirui came to Yan'an Mansion, he cooperated closely with Wei Zhiyou, the Yan'an General Soldier.

However, was Ding Qirui wronged or not?Wronged!

Due to natural disasters and man-made disasters, Yan'an Mansion and the counties under its jurisdiction have already run out of supplies. Even if there is a little leftover, it has been looted by hungry people because of the chaos.

Now, apart from the food and salaries transported by the rebels to Yulin, there is no other supplies available, where can the relief come from?

Needless to say, the role of Yulin Town to the rebels is directly related to the success or failure of the whole Shaanxi.
He hastily ordered people to move in, but he himself hurriedly went to see Zhang Shun.

When Ding Qirui walked into the government office, Zhang Shun was reading Ding Qirui's unfinished post.

"Conscription for disaster relief?" Zhang Shun browsed roughly a few times, and couldn't help but put down and worship Ding Qirui, "This king really made a mistake, sir, please forgive me!"

"Don't dare, dare not!" Yan'an Governor Ding Qirui was taken aback when he saw this, and quickly helped Zhang Shun up and explained.

"Ding, as the official of Yan'an's parents, did not think well!" Ding Qirui dared to climb up the pole, and quickly admitted his mistake.

The two talked about it and went, so they had no grievances.

Zhang asked by the way: "I also read your sketch, do you want to advise and recruit the victims of disasters as soldiers?"

"Yes!" Ding Qirui heard the words, "Song Taizu once said, 'Fang is hungry and hungry, there are rebels but no rebels', now Yan'an is raging, very dangerous."

"It's not like recruiting hungry people as soldiers, eliminating the evil in Wei Meng, and eliminating the disaster in Wei Meng!"

No, who is not good for you to let me learn from, and you want me to learn from "Iron Blood Song"?
Redundant soldiers, redundant officials, redundant expenses, poor and weak, commonly known as "three redundant and two accumulated", is this still worth learning?
Seeing Zhang Shun's expression, Ding Qirui obviously looked down on the Song Dynasty.

In fact, it was not just Zhang Shun. Most people in the Ming Dynasty didn't think highly of the Song Dynasty. After all, no one likes weak chickens.

He couldn't help admonishing: "Since King Shun intends to provide disaster relief, how can we manage such a big state capital with only me and General Wei?"

"Even if I can manage it, is there any reason to give food and grass to others for nothing?"

Ding Qirui's rhetoric is very simple. Anyway, King Shun, if you want to release food for disaster relief, you will give it for free, and you will also give it if you recruit a few people by the way.

Instead, why not take the opportunity to ask for some benefits?

What's more, even if you want to open a warehouse to release grain, you have to have people to manage it, right?
"Hey, your method is really good!" Zhang Shun thought about it, and it really is.

If you don't call these recruits soldiers, and don't use them as soldiers, but as hired workers, then everything makes sense.

"Then Mr. is responsible for this matter, I don't know what?" Zhang Shun couldn't help laughing.

"I would like to divide the recruits into four types. One is able to read and break characters, which is called Wenying, and each person is given three catties and six taels of food every day, and nine buckets of food per month; the other is highly skilled in martial arts, which is called Wuying. , Each person is given three catties and six taels of grain per day, and nine buckets of grain per month."

"Three middle-aged men who have all their hands and feet are enough. They are called Liying. They will distribute two catties of grain per day, and six buckets of grain per month."

"The four accept boys and girls under the age of [-], and put them under the name of the king. Those who are over [-] years old are selected into Ren Jirong's "Children's Camp", those who are [-] to [-] years old are selected to be taught by civil and military teachers, and women under the age of [-] are selected to take care of them."

"Women are given one catty of food per day, and about thirty catties of food per month."

"Okay!" Ding Qirui thought carefully after hearing the words, and found that there was nothing to add, so he couldn't help nodding and replied, "I just don't know how to get the food and grass?"

"I've already sent someone to tell Lu Weiqi to prepare a batch of grain and bring it over as soon as possible." Zhang Shun said confidently.

"However, some may be given to Yaozhou to help those victims who went south, and the rest will be reserved for you."

"The first step is to give priority to recruiting those scholars, and let them come out to help you set up the whole framework."

"The second step is to recruit people who wield knives and guns, and pay attention to sending some soldiers to look after them, lest they take the opportunity to cause trouble."

"In particular, some people either hide in the mountains to be robbers, or hunters eat them. They are inhuman, so be careful!"

"After these two things are done, some people ask them to transport food to ensure that the military food and disaster relief food can be delivered on time."

"The other part of the people let them repair the city, reclaim the farmland, and resume production."

"Although there is drought and little rain now, it's not like the fields don't produce any crops."

"I'll ask Luoyang Zhang Shenyan to send some old farmers with sweet potatoes to see if they can be used as an emergency."

"Some time ago, when food was in short supply, they sent more than a thousand stone sweet potatoes to Xi'an, which tasted pretty good."

"Just can't eat too much, not only exhaust, but also unbearable stomach acid."

When it comes to business, Zhang Shun is like an old lady who babbles, giving endless instructions.

Ding Qirui didn't dare to laugh at him, he quickly found a pen and paper, and wrote it down with a flick of a brush.

It has to be said that Zhang Shun's thinking was quick, and Ding Qirui had just started, and he came up with a lot of practical methods in a short while. The Yan'an disaster that was originally a headache, unexpectedly found a solution.
