Wind rises time and space gate

Zhao Guangyuan was holding back the fire in his chest and did not speak, and none of his subordinates dared to speak.

Sun Zefang looked at each other and said: "This time King Qin proposed to borrow grain and money from large households in the disaster area, which is a very good idea. In previous years, disaster relief money was allocated from the household department in the capital and transported all the way down, with many checkpoints and many exploitations. The victims have very little left."

Zhao Guangyuan snorted, Zhao Guangjin came up with this idea just to make up for the inability of Lan County Magistrate to protect the people in Cang County, so he abandoned the city and escaped. In order to avoid burning themselves, they had no choice but to give up asking for silver from the Ministry of Accounts and borrow money from large households.

It saves the Ministry of Household official money being exploited by people from both sides.

Zhao Guanghuan is also stupid. Zhao Guangjin's people made such a big mistake. Officials at all levels in Lizhou did not act from top to bottom. As a result, the victims suffered for many days outside the city, with countless casualties and casualties. His heart is to be punished! It was time to take this opportunity to bite off a piece of King Qin's flesh and completely overturn him to his feet. In the end, Zhao Guangjin was able to stand up.

idiot.

When Zhao Guangyuan thought that there were tens of thousands of troops stationed near Lizhou, and he allowed the refugees to invade Cangxian County, and when the city gate fell and the people were killed and injured, he became extremely angry.

"The prince and the King of Qin are using the people of the world as tools of attack." To achieve their goals, they will do whatever it takes.

There is simply no ethics and no bottom line!

After thinking it over, he gave instructions repeatedly...

"I ordered people to transport the grain stored on the island for next year to Yanzhou for disaster relief. Along the way, they carried the banner of my king, saying that the grain I grew with the feudal land of the city would be converted into cash from the taxes of the city in the next ten years. The money will be used to buy food for disaster relief, and we will tell the victims along the way that if they have nowhere to go, they can go all the way to Yue, and I will buy fertile land in Yue and give it to them for farming."

"In addition, Li Mao and county officials are instructed to do a good job in receiving the victims and arrange them properly without shirk."

All the subordinates were stunned, "Your Majesty?"

Is the prince no longer ready to lie dormant, but ready to walk in front of people? Isn't this bad?

Fang Da knew Zhao Guangyuan well and patted his thigh, "There's nothing wrong with it. This time, King Qin has tricked the prince, and he still wants to benefit in the end? He's too beautiful to die for. It's time for our prince to stir things up, and there are no ministers in the court." I thought there were only the prince and the King of Qin. Let them see, they have other choices, our prince is the legitimate prince. In terms of status, no one is as valuable as him!"

When all the subordinates heard this, their eyes lit up and their hearts were filled with excitement. But no, their prince is the legitimate son of the Empress Yuan, and the prince is not as valuable as their prince!

It's done!

They all knelt down and said: "I will obey the prince's order!"

"Yanzhou is not far from the northwest. Then write to the northwest side to ask about the situation there. Then send 100,000 shi of grain to Hangu Pass, and 100,000 shi to Ningwuguan, saying that it will be allocated to the army. The family members of the locals affected by the disaster."

"Your Majesty is righteous!"

If the water is to be stirred, it must be muddied. Could it be that ten years have passed and the family of Lu Guogong, who used to be in charge of the army, will have no descendants?

We should also let the ministers in the court see that the prince's hypocritical benevolence and the King of Qin's insidiousness are not the actions of a wise king. Their prince was the late emperor’s favorite candidate! Don't think that there are only the Crown Prince and the King of Qin, but there is also their prince as the successor!

All the subordinates were filled with emotion, excitement, excitement, and wished they could raise their arms and declare to the world that they still have their Yue King in the world!

He also listened to the prince's instructions, "Instruct all the ships on the island to go south to buy grain and store it on the island for later use."

"Yes!"

"From now on, the training on the island will be extended for one more hour! Everyone is on strict alert!"

"Yes!"

"Order the Iron Department to step up the production of more useful weapons. The Ship Department to build more ships."

"Yes!"

Soon, news reached Li Mao's ears that there were grain merchants in various counties in Vietnam who were collecting grain at high prices.

The early rice has just been harvested, and second-crop grain seeds have been distributed in Vietnam. The second-crop grain has been planted. It is understandable to sell the first-crop grain, and the people can also get some more money for household use. However, the huge amount of grain purchased gradually aroused Li Mao's suspicion.

Whether there will be a better harvest in the second quarter, or whether the weather will cooperate, is yet to be determined. People should have saved some grain for chewing in the second half of the year. Now, as soon as grain dealers offer high prices, people spend all the grain stored at home.

If the other party has a deliberate plan and there is no harvest in the second season of grain, and there is no grain in the hands of the people, how will the people of Vietnam use it in the second half of the year? How to spend the winter? When will the people in Yue areas flee from famine and riot again? As we move closer to the sea, people who can no longer survive will join the sea and become pirates, plundering everywhere. How can he be a good prefect?

Li Mao's heart was pounding, and he was about to take people out to meet with the grain merchants, and then instruct the counties and district chiefs to come and discuss countermeasures, but the master came back from outside.

After talking to Li Mao, Li Mao stopped.

Are all those grain merchants members of the King of Yue?

The king of Yue wants to buy grain and send it to the disaster area? Want to send it to the Northwest Army? The King of Yue also said that if the second harvest of grain cannot meet the expected harvest, he will buy grain from the south and sell it to the people at a low price? Won't it make the people have a hard time this winter?

Li Mao was stunned for a long time. What is the King of Yue doing?

Why would a person who has been guarding the imperial mausoleum for ten years want to swim in this muddy water?

"Sir, shall we meet with those grain merchants for a moment?"

The master saw the change in Li Mao's expression and couldn't guess what he meant. It has only been in the past two years that people in Yue have enough to eat. Now some people are collecting grain at a high price, and because the second crop of grain has been planted, almost everyone has taken out all the grain stored at home and sold it to grain merchants.

The master didn't know what the King of Yue was going to do, but he was also worried that there would be no second harvest and the people would not be able to eat. Then the adult's sin will be great.

Li Mao thought for a long time and shook his head, "No need to know. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. Why should I block people's financial path? Besides, the King of Yue didn't guarantee that if there is no harvest in the second quarter of grain, he will buy grain from elsewhere and sell it at a low price. Common people? Let’s just watch.”

Just trust the King of Yue this time.

It's just that the government officials should be asked to go to the fields more often. If the fields are not good, they can make plans in advance.

Because Li Mao did not intervene, the Yue King's grain collection in Yue went very smoothly, and a steady stream of grain was transported to various places along the state.

In Qiya Library, two students from poor families were copying books.

There are a large number of books in the library. They have never read so many books or been exposed to so much knowledge in their hometown. Entering this library is like a mouse entering a rice vat, and they are reluctant to get out.

Because there were so many people borrowing books, no matter how many books they borrowed, it was not enough. The King of Yue sympathized with them and gave poor students like them the opportunity to copy books. They could get a few to dozens of liters for a book, and they also had free tea. supply.

They entered the library in the morning, carrying two dry biscuits, and drank the tea provided by the library, and then they could read or copy books in the library for a day.

During the interval, the two of them stopped laughing and rubbed their stiff wrists. One of them glanced left and right, and asked his partner quietly: "Have you heard? I heard that the King of Yue sent people to buy a large amount of grain to provide relief to the disaster. The people also exchanged ten years of food taxes and taxes to buy corresponding grains and send them to the disaster areas."

Another person nodded, "I heard it. The King of Yue is Gaoyi! Compared with those in the court, the King of Yue is the one who truly cares about the people."

Those people said they would donate as much as they wanted, but who saw them giving any money? In the end, when disaster strikes, how many will be left in the hands of the people? After being exploited layer by layer, it finally fell back into their hands!

"I heard that the food sent by the King of Yue was escorted by retired soldiers along the way. How do you think the King of Yue managed to win over those people?"

"No. I heard that when the King of Yue was preparing to transport the grain from Zhuangzi in Yue, some righteous soldiers from the coast of Yue heard about it and volunteered to escort it. Some veterans along the way heard about it and took the initiative to join the escort team. Come."

"But I heard that those righteous soldiers are pirates!"

"Don't talk nonsense, as long as they escort food and deliver it to the people, then they are righteous. Before, those officials in Lizhou were Daqi officials. When the refugees came, didn't they abandon the city and flee? Who is good to the people? I Just recognize who you are."

"Yes, I admit it too!"

Although the two of them talked quietly, they were also surrounded by poor students who were copying books. When they heard about this, they all gathered around and had a heated discussion...

I heard that the King of Yue, who had guarded the tomb for ten years, also donated ten years of taxes and taxes, and sent people all the way to deliver food to the disaster area. Some martyrs along the way were grateful to escort him all the way, and the hearts of these poor bachelors became warm.

"We also have some money in our hands, and we will donate it to the King of Yue! Let the King of Yue buy grain and give it to the people in disaster!"

"Yes, we also donate food! Come on, let's go find the owner!"
