Chapter 319 Troubled Times 39
It's normal for the wives to have different attitudes towards Wu Shuang's words.

Not everyone has the ambition to start a career, some are ambitious, and some like to stay in the back house safely, and Wushuang is not reluctant.

After announcing the news, let these wives go home and think it through. Those who are willing to go to the Yamen to report to her in three days, and those who are not, just don't come.

Three days later, two-thirds of the people came to look for Wushuang, and almost all the female relatives of the general's family came.

The wives of the generals came because of Chu Nanze's prestige. These generals were willing to obey Chu Nanze's request and let their wives come out to take care of things.

On the civil servants' side, half of them didn't come, some of them didn't want to come, and some of them didn't come because their husbands objected to their wives' publicity.

Wushuang gave the opportunity, these people gave up or did not fight for the same status as men outside, so Wushuang had no choice but to let them go.

With the addition of the Ladies Group, everyone's pressure is reduced a lot. These ladies have different abilities, but they can do things.

And because it is a woman who is in charge, although she has no idea, she is willing to accept guidance, and she will not think too highly of herself like some men and refuse to accept women's teachings.

So in general, Wushuang thinks these ladies are much easier to use than those male officials.

After the farm was opened, chickens and ducks began to come out of the cages a few months later, and the egg production increased. People in the army finally realized the freedom to eat meat and eggs.

The special forces training that Chu Nanze has been thinking about for a long time can finally be put on the agenda.

The farm was on the right track, and Wushuang started to breed cattle in large numbers again.

Cattle are no longer meat-eating. When they are raised to a certain size, they are sold to the common people at a low price to help them reduce the burden of farming.

Moreover, with the addition of cattle, the land can also be multiplied by a few acres. In this era when the yield is not good, a few acres of land can be harvested by hundreds of catties of grain.

Wushuang vigorously promotes the policy of land reclamation by the people, and guarantees that no tax will be collected for the first five years of land reclamation, so the enthusiasm of the people for land reclamation instantly rises.

Although the people are enthusiastic enough to open up wasteland, but the borderlands are vast and sparsely populated. No matter how much the people want to open up wasteland, they will be made of meat, and they will get tired. If they open too much land, they will not be able to grow it.

At this time, it was time for Xiao Baizhi to play, and the caravan went all over the country, spreading the good news of the people at the border.

If it was a peaceful time, it would be difficult to leave the homeland, and the life at the border would be full of hype. After all, the location is remote, and there may not be many people who are willing to go.

But now is the troubled times, what kind of homeland is hard to leave, under the scourge of soldiers and bandits, it is lucky to survive, the so-called homeland has nothing to miss.

So when they got this news, countless people who couldn't survive seemed to grab the straw and dragged their families to the border, just to find a way to survive.

Not long after this, the population of the frontier began to increase suddenly. Fortunately, the two state capitals next to the frontier occupied a large area. Although many people joined, they did not worry about having no land to divide.

The court became more and more chaotic, and more and more people rebelled. Finally, the first large-scale rebel army appeared.

The other party called himself the King of Guangping, and rebelled on the grounds of pacifying the world and saving all the suffering people.

Completely different from the scaleless rebellion before, this king of Guangping has a good vision, has a few generals who can fight under him, and he has a good brain.

Unlike other insurgents who did not leave a way for the people to survive, the territory he conquered did not rob the people of their finances and did not leave a way for them to survive, and he was quite popular all of a sudden.

Troubled times have really arrived, and Chu Nanze has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands. It is impossible to be outside the circle in this turmoil, and he must be mixed in.

The problem is that since they want to get involved, they should just be the final winner. Wu Shuang thinks this way, and Chu Nanze thinks the same way.

However, Wu Shuang held a meeting with Chu Nanze and all his officials, including the wives in charge, and everyone spoke freely about the current situation.

The final conclusion is that it is not the best time to intervene, because there are still several capable players waiting and watching.

As a general who defends against foreign enemies at the border, with a high position, no one dares to pull him into the game easily, there is absolutely no need for Chu Nanze to stir up trouble with him now.

They just had to sit back and watch the tigers fight, and when the chaos reached the end, Chu Nanze would end soon.

Deciding on the direction of action in the future is another major matter. Wushuang and Chu Nanze have discussed that all the wives involved in the management will be granted official positions.

Wushuang and Chu Nanze have thought about this point carefully. Wushuang wants to improve the status of women, and Chu Nanze is thinking that there are not enough senior management talents in his hands, that is, there are not enough people who can be officials.

Since these women have to use it, and it looks like it can be used during this period of time, then what are you waiting for, let's take up the post quickly, and you can handle a lot of things with the official seal.

It has to be said that Chu Nanze's mentality has gained a wave of favorability with Wushuang.

Including his father-in-law Xiao Baizhi and his sister-in-law Xiao Wuyou, who he hadn't captured for a long time, were also very well liked.

Xiao Baizhi is a man who doesn't value men and women, otherwise he would not leave such a huge family fortune to his daughter and focus on nurturing his daughter.

Xiao Wuyou was trained by Xiao Baizhi according to the direction of the Patriarch, and he was very against the patriarchal thought.

It has to be said that Chu Nanze's approach of treating men and women equally made Xiao Baizhi and Xiao Wuyou's worries disappear.

At first, he kept pushing back, but now he began to speak well of Chu Nanze overtly and secretly.

Even if Xiao Baizhi and Xiao Wuyou were like this, those female officials who were unexpectedly appointed officials were even more grateful.

There are two female officials who are even higher in grade than their husbands because of their good work, and they have faintly become the heads of the family at home.

The female officer had just finished being happy, and there was another piece of good news. Three magistrates from the two state capitals next to the border came together to find Chu Nanze with one purpose, they wanted to take refuge in Chu Nanze.

These three magistrates are all civil servants, good at literature but not good at soldiers, and because they are next to General Chu Nanze, the imperial court did not send troops here.

So during this period of time, the three magistrates have suffered a great crime. Any uprising will come to their state capital to loot, and there have been three waves in a row. Every time they are frightened, they are frightened.

The three magistrates were afraid that there would be another fierce one, so they cut them off too. After thinking about it, although the general was jealous of evil, he would not accept corrupt officials.

But although the three of them are not good officials, they are not stupid or corrupt officials either.

When he was in office, he was looking for rich businessmen to make money, and he did not bully the people.

Of course, there is nothing they can do about the imperial court raising taxes, but it is not their fault that they forcefully collect food from the people. I think the general can understand it.

Determined that they would not be hacked by the general, the three of them ran together to seek refuge with the general, Chu Nanze, for protection.
