Chapter 51

Early the next morning, before dawn, Li Zicheng appeared at the gate of Xu Zhi'an's camp.

The soldiers on duty soon spotted him.

Before he got close, he took the lead in smiling and said:
"Here we come, brother. General Xu arranged for him to meet him in his tent when you come."

"Thank you bro!"

"You're welcome, we will be my brothers from now on. My name is Tao Ziguang."

Tao Ziguang's intimacy made Li Zicheng feel very warm, and the unhappiness from yesterday also dissipated a little.

Li Zicheng followed Tao Ziguang to Xu Zhi'an's camp, and he looked around along the way.The soldiers in this battalion gave him the feeling that they were not only well-equipped, but also highly disciplined, which was completely different from the officers and soldiers in the local guards that he had seen before.

Tao Ziguang went in and reported, then came out and called him in.

As soon as he entered, he saw Xu Zhi'an who was drinking tea.

Li Zicheng knelt on the ground with a plop, and smacked his head three times at Xu Zhi'an.

"Li Zicheng, thank you General for saving your life!"

Xu Zhi'an hurriedly stood up and helped him up.

"No need to be polite, you saved Mr. Zhou first. Besides, you didn't break the law. It was just a little effort for me to save you. From now on, just be a soldier by my side. After I return to Beijing, I will find a way to help you." You arrange a seat."

"Zicheng is willing to do the work of a dog and a horse!" Li Zicheng didn't expect Xu Zhian to treat him so highly, and immediately gave another military salute.

Now Xu Zhi'an didn't stop him.He ordered people to arrange a place for Li Zicheng to live, issued military uniforms, and received weapons.

In this way, Li Zicheng settled down in Xu Zhian's army.

Another day later, the soldiers sent to deliver the letter to Lu Xiangsheng returned.

There were several other people in the same company, the head of which was Zhang Guozhu, the right minister of Shanxi.

"Sir Zhang, there has been a severe drought in Shaanxi in recent years. I have been ordered by your majesty to repair the river. I would also like to ask Mr. Zhang to make it more convenient."

Zhang Guozhu's rank is much higher than Zhou Kanggeng's, so it's a gift of dismissal as soon as they meet.

"Master Zhou doesn't need to be too polite. It's a blessing for the people of Shaanxi that Mr. Zhou can enter Shaanxi to repair the river. We will definitely cooperate with all our strength."

"Then I would like to thank Mr. Zhang first. Now that there is enough money and food, Mr. Zhang can post a notice to inform the victims who have no food to eat. As long as they are willing to work, they will take care of the food. In addition to three meals a day, each person can also Receive ten copper coins."

"Okay! My Emperor Shengming!"

Zhang Guozhu clapped his hands and laughed, and happily kowtowed three times in the direction of the capital!At this end, he kowtowed on behalf of the common people sincerely. He didn't expect that repairing the river course would not only provide food, but also money.This is really a surprise.The most distressing thing in Shaanxi right now is the disaster victims.

It was okay for them to be hungry for a day or two. After a long time, there were refugees everywhere, and crimes increased greatly, which caused great trouble to the government.Now it's all right, as long as you work, you will not only have food, but also money.Moreover, the river course has been repaired, and the people will benefit in the end.

Since the new emperor ascended the throne, Zhang Guozhu has never had the opportunity to go to Beijing to meet the saint. In some correspondence with him in the same year when he was in the capital, all he learned was some information about the cruelty and mediocrity of the new emperor.But judging from His Majesty's work-for-relief measures, it has nothing to do with mediocrity.

Zhou Kangeng looked at Zhang Guozhu kneeling on the ground with a smile, and roughly guessed what he was thinking.

In the eyes of many people, he is a foolish king, but in his eyes, His Majesty is a wise king.

Your Majesty is a pragmatic person who does not engage in false formalism.

His Majesty is a frugal man. He asked the imperial kitchen to prepare only four dishes for each meal.

His Majesty is a maverick and will do what he thinks is right.

But some people can't see it. They only see struggles, official positions, interests, and groups in their eyes.

They only care about whether His Majesty is under their control and obey their words.

They are smart, wise, and full of economics, but these talents are misused.

The journey was hard, but Zhou Kangeng didn't find it hard.

Along the way, he saw more sufferings among the people and saw more tragic pictures.

He began to understand that only by going out, calming down, and bending over, can he know how to be an official and be a good official.

Zhou Kangeng and Zhang Guozhu had two days of intense discussions.Policies for river management have been formulated.

Right now, the drought in northern Shaanxi is the most severe, and there are many refugees.

Assign personnel to each mansion, implement a subcontracting system, manage level by level, and supervise the work with soldiers from the Beijing camp.

After formulating the policy, the water conservancy project started vigorously.

As soon as the notices for recruiting workers were posted, tens of thousands of refugees flocked there.

In the year of the catastrophe, it is extremely difficult to have a meal, let alone money?

The [-] soldiers from the Beijing camp were dispatched to maintain order and supervise the work of the workers.

On a whim, Xu Zhian organized the workers into teams of ten.

The continuous sitting system is implemented, as long as one person is found to be lazy, the whole team will not be able to eat.Found three times, the whole team drove away.

In this way, the team members supervise each other, work without effort, and there are much fewer fish in troubled waters.

After all, everyone cherishes this job that can provide food and money.

Li Zicheng was assigned to Dingbian County in western Yulin among these order-maintaining soldiers.

The drought here is very severe and there are the most refugees.

There were more than 200 people assigned to them, while Li Zicheng's team had only ten people.

Except for a few cooks who are responsible for cooking, everyone else has to work.

The weather is very hot, the work is heavy, and everyone is very tired.

However, most people are very satisfied. They have enough to eat and receive money. What else is there to be dissatisfied with?

But the world is never short of outliers.

One of these people is dissatisfied, or very dissatisfied.

His name is Zhang Xianzhong, and his nickname is Huang Hu. He used to be a soldier and has excellent martial arts skills.

Ever since he violated the law in the military camp and was beaten with a hundred army sticks and kicked out of the military camp, he got entangled with more than a dozen cronies, wandered here and there, stole chickens and dogs, and lived a life of hungry and full.A few days ago, he saw the announcement of the imperial court's work-for-relief, and immediately brought his brothers over to sign up.In his mind, sneaking around and fishing for fish every day can not only have enough food, but also earn money.Why not do it?
But after he came, he realized that things were not as good as he had imagined.

Not only to work, but also not to be lazy.

What kind of nonsense request is there for one person not to work and the whole team not to eat.

The team he led had already eaten two meals.

I was hungry again at noon today.

The afternoon sun was scorching, Zhang Xianzhong and his brothers enjoyed the cool under the shade of the trees.

Even if I was lazy at work, my stomach was burning like a fire at this time.

"Damn! These sons of bitches, let me work without giving me food! I'm so fucking fed up!"

"Brother Huang Hu, since you're still staying here like this, let's just leave, we won't find a bite to eat anywhere."

"You said lightly, are you still here when you have food?"

"Then what do you say? I'm going to be exhausted after working for a long time."

Hearing the complaints of his brothers, Zhang Xianzhong became upset for a while.He is the leader of this group of people. Who would recognize him as the leader even if his own brothers can't get enough to eat?Looking at the soldiers patrolling in the distance, he made up his mind.He said to those around him:
"Come here with your ears!"

　Thank you is a monthly pass for an unlucky ghost!Thanks to my sword called Guluan for the reward!Thank you for your support.
