So I play chess

Chapter 39
Wen Gu's words startled Liu.

He had also heard the news about Lianzhou, but his past relationship had long been lost, and whether Wen Gu plotted against Tongcheng or negotiated with him, he had seen the difference in this woman.

It is nothing new to get a deeper message than him.

Liu Zhu didn't hesitate, and simply asked, "Is Lianzhou going to be in chaos?"

In any case, he is the prefect of Tongcheng now, and since he has assumed the responsibility, he should take it well.If Lianzhou is in chaos, he must deal with it early.

Wen Gu shook his head: "Lianzhou must have been in chaos a long time ago, but it's not the kind of chaos you think. The Xu Sanlang who scolded the temple is from Qianlong County, and someone will definitely find out about this matter in Tongcheng."

Liu Zhu made such a big commotion in Tongcheng, Lianzhou should have sent someone here no matter what, to reward them in the open, but to investigate secretly would definitely have to go.

How could Liu Zhu stand up to this? No matter how much he prepared to say, what he said was not the truth. As long as it was not the truth, there was a possibility of being exposed.

Coincidentally, there was an order from Zhaohua Palace first, and then Xu Sanlang's curse.Let the eyes of the whole Southern Chu focus on Lianzhou City.The matter of Tongcheng is not important anymore.

Although he and Wen Gu are in the same position now, he still doesn't know whether Wen Gu wants to hide behind him and seek a stable identity as a subject of Southern Chu, or whether he has other plans.

But he understands that as long as he wants to continue to be the prefect, he must keep the secret between the two of them.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhu made a calculation in his heart: "In two days, all the refugees who have already entered the city can be checked again, and those who enter the city from today will be more careful. If there are people from Lianzhou, let's not reveal their identities. I'll send someone to watch."

Seeing that Liu Zhu understood what he meant, Wen Gu said again: "Shu Zuo told you that I am going to change the public inspection. This is not for you, but for those big families. There will be troubles in Southern Chu, and these people There must be profit-seeking here, but not all of them. You bite your words too tightly, they have no chance to show up, and I want to make an opening."

Liu Zhu said with a smile: "Whatever my aunt wants to do, just do it. What I was before is what I will do in the future."

As soon as this remark came out, the two each laughed.

The words have come to this point, it is good to act separately.Liu Zhu was not too polite, so he said goodbye and went out.

The refugees who come to Tongcheng now have two best places to go. One is the four walls of Tongcheng. Wen Liang sent two officers from the Liangzhou Army to Liu, who are in charge of strengthening the city walls and building fortifications.Refugees can come here to work hard, and the city will arrange food and accommodation together, eat cooked meat at noon, and drink broth at night, and the monthly payment is settled on a ten-day basis. Generally speaking, one person can have three or four taels of silver a month.

Of the 36 workshops in Tongcheng, only Nancheng has a Nanshi between Xingde Xingli and Xingli. With the assistance of Liangzhou Army, Liu Zhu stabilized the market price. In today's market, one tael of silver can be exchanged for more than two hundred catties of rice.

Living is expensive. Most of the post houses and inns in the city are used to accommodate refugees. The cheapest ones cost one or two a month.Refugees have to work hard and eat a lot, but they don't care about living.Therefore, this kind of cheap place was full early, and people couldn't get it later, so if you want to live, you can only live in those that are several taels a month.

Originally, posthouses could not be opened casually, but the situation was like this. Under Liu Zhu's mediation, some original restaurants and teahouses were simply changed into inns, but it was still a drop in the bucket.

In this way, the job of the city wall is generally cost-effective, and most of the young and powerful refugees are here.

And the other place is the original Yang's Mansion, which is now the mourning hall for Wen Xin and the people who were victimized by Yang Wantang.

This place is mostly for renovation and layout, and there is not much demolition and reconstruction work, but the work is cumbersome.However, it will be used for a long time in the future.The same is to control food and housing, eat meat once every three days, give out two decent clothes, and fix five or two months of money a month.

The rest are the restaurants, teahouses, posthouses and inns in the city, but none of them are related to the state capital. They are scattered and different.

Liu Zhu just came out of Wen Gu's other courtyard.That afternoon, there was an incident at the gate of the original Yang Mansion.

The work here is generally given priority to women, and there are also some scholars who cannot do physical work.In addition, some strong men are needed to guard.

It was just that something happened in the job of nursing, two groups of strong and vicious refugees, in order to grab this job, fought at the gate of Yang's mansion at the slightest disagreement.Not to mention smashing things, and almost killing people.

The refugees who entered the city were resettled, and they only wanted to work and rarely caused trouble. When this incident happened, whether it was the later refugees or the original residents in Tongcheng, even the officials and yamen servants tightened their strings.

The prefect quickly sent officials to take the two groups away, and it is said that they were sent to prison.Then, taking this as a lesson, the refugees who had already entered Tongcheng were checked again.

Those with ambiguous origins, and those without three or more relatives and friends accompanying them will all be re-registered by the government, arrange their residences as a whole, and report their daily entry and exit.

Originally, they were working hard, but these two groups were delayed. There was a lot of discussion among the refugees, all pointing at the troublemakers, but no one talked about the Tongcheng government office.

It's just that everyone didn't know where these two groups of people came from and when they entered the city.

But in fact, these two groups of more than a dozen people changed their clothes and washed their faces in the government office, and went out of the city overnight, going south and north, each replacing the hidden guards from Beiyu and Nanchu, and then entered the city as refugees.

Li Mao's people are very familiar with these things.

Under this cover, no one else knew that what Liu Zhu actually wanted to investigate was the matter of Lianzhou.

At the same time, the news that the prefect's aunt was going to change the public inspection also reached the ears of various families.

During the process of the Shuzuo's exchange of messages, the news also spread out a few times, all saying that the aunt scolded Liu Zhuo for being stupid, and in this troubled world, it is unknown how many villains will be let into the city.

Naturally, the word first reached the ears of Zheng Tong, the master of the Zheng family in the north of the city, the largest branch of the Wang family in Tongcheng.

Zheng Tongtong listened, how familiar these words are, Liu Zhu's aunt has soldiers and horses under her hands, and she is pressing Liu Zhe's head, she is definitely not a kind person at first glance.

What troubled times, why worrying about letting bad people into the city, she must be aware of Yang Wantang's activities, and now she wants to take this matter into her own hands, seeing her nephew blocking the way, she can't give up.

Then Liu Zhu can carry outsiders like himself, but can he also carry his elders in the mansion?
What's more, let's talk closer, what is Liu Zhu's reason for returning to the city, and how did he, the powerful prefect of Tongcheng, come here.Speaking from a distance, who saved Liu Zhu's life for him.

This is all the kindness bestowed upon him by his elders.No matter how impregnated he is, can he withstand these?
Since the aunt is greedy for money, the Zheng family can take advantage of it.This hole will be opened sooner or later, and we must not let others take the lead.
