Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1269
When the general led Zhang Jun's second son, Zhang Chonghua, into the hall, Huan Xuan, Li Hong and other important civil and military officials from Guanlong also sat down one after another, and all the people in the hall returned to their seats.

Jiang Xi stood with his head bowed under the jade steps in front of the general's seat, and raised his hand to the side to signal, and then the melodious and clear melodious sound of the piano and chime sounded in the hall, announcing the official start of the feast.

Although Jiang Ji himself did not hold a specific position in Guanzhong, he came here on a holiday and was equal in rank to Yongzhou governor Huanxuan, and he was not needed to be the master of ceremonies at all.

However, he felt that the general had resentment towards him, so he simply consciously took the initiative to take on this responsibility. Anyway, the general will leave soon, and he will stay in Guanzhong for two or three years.After returning to the Xingtai, the general will not still be obsessed with this old grievance and seek revenge, so he made up his mind not to approach the past before the general left.

Amidst the solemn and lively feast and music, everyone in the hall was full of curiosity and excitement.To be honest, for such a large-scale banquet with nearly a thousand people in attendance, all the people present felt a sense of novelty, and there were very few such experiences before.

The entire hall is extremely large in scale, even if it has nearly a thousand seats, it doesn't look cramped. There are waiters and maidservants walking lightly among the music, passing meals around.Many seats at the bottom are arranged in a fan shape, facing General Shen above the hall.

There are more than 20 seats at the top. In addition to General Shen and Zhang Chonghua, who represents Duke Zhang Jun of Liang, and several important ministers on the stage, there are also some senior citizens who were personally invited by the stage, such as Jingzhao Duyan and others. It sits near the general.

As Zhang Jun's heir, Zhang Chonghua had seen quite a few big scenes, but because he was the closest to General Shen, he still felt a lot of embarrassment in his heart.

In addition to being ashamed of himself, General Shen is a powerful man in the world who even his father has to retreat a little bit and is willing to be behind. Strings, don't dare to forget your form and be rude.

After taking his seat, he looked to the left and right for a while. When he saw a long-bearded scribe sitting three seats away from him on the left, he couldn't help being slightly surprised.And the middle-aged scribe also noticed Zhang Chonghua's slightly surprised gaze, so he nodded slightly to Zhang Chonghua.

Zhang Chonghua didn't dare to be negligent, and slightly bowed his hands in salute, but his mood was really not calm.The middle-aged man was Guo He, from Lueyang, Qinzhou, and he was the leading master of Confucian classics in Longyou. In his early years, he avoided living in Hexi because of the turmoil in Longshang. None of them dare to be negligent, and the courteous treatment is added, and even many disciples come and go under his sect, and follow the disciples' courtesy.

The Zhang family has managed Hexi for several generations, and they also attach great importance to cultural and educational matters. They revive rituals and respect Confucianism. Naturally, they dare not neglect Guo He, a famous master of Confucian classics in the Western Frontier. However, He never responded, and just avoided living in Zhangye to study.Even in the early years when Zhang Chonghua was made his heir by his father, he wanted to invite Guo He to go to Jincheng to educate his children, but Guo He declined.

Such a well-known family of Confucian classics, even the Zhang family, as the overlord of Hexi, would not dare to neglect it. If it is really bullying and insulting, it will definitely destroy the morale of the people.But it is such a model of human relations who is not afraid of power, quiet and self-defense, but he did not know when he left Hexi, and now he is a guest at General Shen's seat!

Thinking of Guo He's insensitivity to his family's many gifts of respect and gratitude, but now he is uncharacteristically catering to Xingtai, Zhang Chonghua is full of youthful vigor, and it is inevitable that he feels a little bit disgusted.After a while, he seemed to feel something, and looked sideways to the other side, only to see General Shen looking at him with a half-smile.

That handsome and handsome face was full of easy-going and indifferent, but it made his heart tremble suddenly, as if there was something on his mind that was seen through by those clear eyes, he hurriedly lowered his head and didn't dare to have any more distracting thoughts.

Afterwards, General Shen didn't just stare at him blindly, benefiting from the advantage of being condescending, Zhang Chonghua looked down, only to find that there were a lot of cool people in the seats below, and there were even some family members of Liangtu tyrants he was familiar with.

Some of those people also noticed Zhang Chonghua's gaze, but they didn't show any embarrassment or embarrassment, and it was this indifference that made Zhang Chonghua's heart unbearably chilled.Right now, his experience is still inexperienced, or he still can't know what these phenomena mean in detail, but he remembers in his heart that when he returns later, he must report to his father in detail.

In the vast hall, Zhang Chonghua is not the only one who harbors worries, but few people show them.

Accompanied by the sound of melodious music, after the meal was arranged, General Shen stood up and held a cup to congratulate.The first few meals are mostly seasonal, either warm or cold. Although the variety is rich, the total amount is not too much.Of course, everyone's thoughts are not here, even the gluttons who are greedy for food and drink will not care too much about it.

The first meal lasted for nearly two quarters of an hour. Seeing the general above put down their cups and chopsticks, everyone sat upright after eating a little.Afterwards, the envoy went forward to take down the cups and offered tea, fine wine, buttermilk, dried dried meat and so on.

At this moment, the music also stopped, and the atmosphere in the hall was solemn for a while.A moment later, General Shen's smile sounded in the hall: "I'm not afraid that you will laugh, I am also an ordinary person with vulgar character and flashy nature. Since I was ordered by the king, although I have experienced difficulties, I have been able to gather together with the world's sages. Joyful, see this full house, even if there is any fatigue, it is forgotten, and the heart is relieved. There are very few people in the world who can surpass this, I wonder if you have the same feeling?"

Although the general's tone was leisurely and casual, none of the people dared to respond rashly. They only smiled and nodded without losing their restraint. After a while, Jingzhao Duyan said with a smile: "Today's scene of joy, the Guanzhong is not good. It's been a long time. In the old days, even though there was a hope of connecting with the hometown, each of us was in danger and anxiety, how could we be happy like this. Today's happiness is like the dew in the morning, like the rain in the morning. The Tao is what we should have, but my long-suffering hometown But everyone knows that luxury is hard to come by. If there is no revival of the king's career, and if there is no great general to fight for righteousness, the border of Kansai will be able to recover this happiness!"

"Mr. Du's praise makes me feel ashamed. The world is full of fatigue, the king's affairs have been wronged for a long time, and the disasters have accumulated for many years. How can a mere man be able to save it? Fortunately, God's love has enabled me to get help from everyone, so I won The deeds are commendable. Today I invite you to gather the wandering sages from the countryside, and I would like to thank you all for understanding the righteousness, helping to make things happen, and bringing order out of chaos. The time for Haiyan and Heqing is not far away.”

At this point, Shen Zhezi looked sideways at the person next to Huanxuan and said with a smile, "I would also like to ask Chang Shi to briefly describe to you fellow villagers the various things that have been created since the restoration of Kansai."

When everyone heard this, they all cheered up and pricked up their ears.These Guanlong Shiliu have also deeply felt the various changes in the countryside in the past two years, but they are either limited by their vision or limited by the pattern, and they do not have a general understanding of the overall situation.

The person named by the general was named Zhang Jian. When the general became an official, he served as the deputy of the general. Although he was not as important as Du He, he was also a confidant. After the recovery of Guanzhong, he was sent Come to serve as the long history of Huanxuan.

After Zhang Jian heard the words, he stood up and walked in front of the general to worship first, then retreated to the side steps and bowed to everyone, and then said loudly: "The establishment of Yongzhou's mansion began in the summer of the fourth year of Qitai... "

Zhang Jian first talked about the recovery of Guanzhong, and then stated various contents, from the establishment and restoration of counties and counties at all levels, to the establishment of military mansions, to reclamation, mulberry planting, water conservancy, etc., which can be described as all-encompassing.

Over the past two years, Guanzhong has achieved tremendous results.The most direct manifestation is that the total number of registered households in counties and counties under the jurisdiction of Yongzhou Governor's Mansion reached more than 200, adding nearly [-] million ruling population to Xingtai.

Many Guanzhong Shiliu who were present couldn't help but exclaim after hearing this number. They didn't expect so many people to survive in Guanzhong after a long period of chaos.

Although this number is astonishing, but if you study it carefully, there is actually a mystery in it.Among the more than 30 households, as many as 10,000+ households are Diqiang and many Zahu tribes.Thanks to Master Wang's tough attitude towards these barbarians, almost all the barbarians who could be collected in the realm were reorganized and naturalized, smashing their original tribal attachment relationship and becoming registered citizens.

These Huzhong themselves do not have a fixed local foundation, and most of them lack farming and weaving skills, so they cannot be regarded as ordinary taxpayers, but it does not mean that they are useless. The main corvee undertakers of the construction.It is precisely because of such abundant manpower that Guanzhong was able to achieve brilliant results in such a short period of time.

In previous years, Guanzhong suffered from wars and chaos, and even Chang'an City was dilapidated.In the past two years, there have been more than a dozen constructions in the city alone. Although it cannot be said that it is completely restored to the old state, at least Sansuke has built a fairly complete building based on this. city ​​network.

With a city, there are basic nodes for gathering people, and these nodes are connected to each other to form a network with a wide coverage.Under this network, the living people can resume farming and weaving, and exchange what they need. This is the most important guarantee for the recovery of a place's vitality.

And based on this, the governor's mansion of Yongzhou recultivated as many as [-] hectares of land, and this did not include Jiatian of the military mansion and the shady land of the village.Of course, this number is nothing compared to the reputation of the Land of Abundance in Guanzhong, and the output per mu is not yet self-sufficient, and there is still a lot of room for expansion.

But if you consider that this is the result achieved in less than two years, it is enough to be jaw-dropping.Moreover, these recultivated fields are not the only source of wealth in Guanzhong, and they cannot even be called the main source of income.
