Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

And if the counties in Yangzhou cooperate, the figures reported to the court can completely report that 130,000 refugees have been resettled in each county.

As for what the truth is, will the emperor, who is thousands of miles away in the palace and looking at the wine pond and meat forest, know?
will not!

Will the ministers who are busy fighting for power care about the situation after the resettlement of the refugees?
will not!

All the changes in the local area are just a bamboo slip with a few small characters when gathered in the court.

As long as the governors of each county cooperate, then each county in Yangzhou will resettle 130,000 refugees. Then the other governors will think they have taken advantage, and will use this as a credit to promote that the Han Dynasty is still singing and dancing.

Li Ji grinned slightly, and then wrote the word "can" in his reply to Jia Xu, asking Jia Xu not to forget to observe the armament status of each county when he visited each county.

Later, Li Ji sent an order to Jinyisi, who gradually began to publicize what Jia Xu wanted among the counties in Yangzhou to ensure that the news could reach the ears of the governors of each county.

Nowadays, the Jinyi Division has gradually begun to develop towards the whole of Yangzhou and Xuzhou. It may be difficult to obtain detailed information about the officials of each county, but it is not difficult to spread some news.

With Jia Xu's reply, Li Ji had a clear outline of Jia Xu's progress, and he was confident about solving the resettlement problem of the refugees.

"Dong dong!"

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in!" Li Ji said.

Zhao Yun pushed the door open and entered, cupping his hands. "Mr. Zikun, the time has come. Liu Zhang, the son of Yizhou Mu, is about to prepare to return to Yizhou."

Li Ji nodded and sealed all the important bamboo slips on the desk. Then he straightened his robes and headed towards the ferry under Zhao Yun's escort.

When Liu Zhang came from Yizhou, there were a dozen large ships loaded with 300,000 dans of grain.

Liu Zhang, who had been in Dantu County for nearly five days, was about to return to Yizhou. Adhering to the principle of reciprocity, Li Ji not only presented hundreds of kilograms of dried Taihu fish as a specialty, but also presented several volumes of ancient classics as a return gift. , to express your feelings through calculation.

However, Liu Zhang was naturally very happy that Li Ji came to see him off in person, but Liu Zhang's little eyes still looked behind him from time to time, as if he still hoped for the appearance of a certain figure.

"Ji Yu, what are you looking for?" Li Ji asked pretending to be puzzled.

Liu Zhang gritted his teeth a little, but couldn't help but speak on his own initiative.

"Why don't you meet Miss Mengji?"

"It turns out that Ji Yu wanted to watch Wu's singing and dancing again before leaving, hahaha..."

Li Ji smiled and patted Liu Zhang on the shoulder, as if he were a close friend, and said.

"The next time Ji Yu comes to visit Wu County again, Gideon will arrange a song and dance in Wu to entertain Ji Yu so that Ji Yu can enjoy it to the fullest."

Liu Zhang opened his mouth, but for a long time he couldn't fully express what he was saying.

Wu Di's singing and dancing are indeed wonderful, but it is undoubtedly Meng Ji herself who makes Liu Zhang linger for more.

However, Liu Zhang also knew that now was not the time for him to have fun, and he needed to satisfy Liu Yan in everything, so Liu Zhang did not dare to ask for Meng Ji.

However, Liu Zhang was also a little worried that before he came to Wu County next time, Meng Ji had already taken the shape of someone else and was given to someone else by Liu Bei.

Therefore, Liu Zhang gritted his teeth, secretly reminded himself of the importance he attached to Meng Ji, and then spoke.

"Next time, I will have a better time to enjoy Miss Mengji's little tune."

"Don't worry, Gideon told Meng Ji to let her practice well and wait until Ji Yu comes next time to perform again." Li Jiyan agreed with a smile.

Liu Zhang said again. "It's a deal..."

"a man of his words!"

Li Ji's affirmative reply again made Liu Zhang feel at ease.

Then, Liu Zhang just boarded the return boat and sailed upstream along the Yangtze River back to Bajun.

When Liu Zhang's figure completely disappeared from sight, the first thing Li Ji did when he returned to the county government office was to ask Zhao Yun to bring Gan Ning over.

After five days of anxious waiting, the restless Gan Ning seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and even the impatience he exuded seemed to have been lost by most of it.

When he met Li Ji for the first time, Gan Ning could not bear to ask directly.

Li Ji didn't mean to beat around the bush, he simply said the result.

"Gan Xingba, Liu Jiyu will not pursue the Gan family. Cheng Jiangzhi of Bajun County was dismissed from his post but not jailed. Your Jinfan thieves subordinates were dismissed."

"In addition, I only need you to write a handwritten letter later, and I will send someone to Bajun to bring the letter to the Gan family, so that the Gan family of Bajun can move out of Bajun as soon as possible. From now on, even if Liu Jiyu wants to settle accounts in the future, he will have no worries."

It can be said that Liu Zhang was deceived by Li Ji in this regard.

Except for Cheng Jiangzhi of Bajun County, because the person he recommended was an assassin, he naturally needed to be investigated to the end and removed from his official position. However, Liu Zhang was obviously very generous without being imprisoned.

If it weren't for Li Ji's deception, I'm afraid these people related to Gan Ning would have been dealt with from top to bottom. The best result would be that the men would be beheaded or exiled, and the women would be converted into slaves and used as slaves.

After hearing this result, Gan Ning breathed a long sigh of relief, then bowed to Li Ji and said.

"Gan Xingba will never be able to repay Mr. Geng's kindness even if his body is broken into pieces."

"There's no need to smash your body to pieces." Li Ji said.

For Li Ji, there was no idea of ​​forming a party for personal gain under Liu Bei, and there was no need for it.

It's not that Li Ji was worried that forming a party for personal gain would arouse Liu Bei's fear and suspicion, but considering that if Li Ji really formed a party, Liu Bei would take the initiative to join his own party. So what difference would it make whether he formed a party or not?
Immediately, Li Ji threw a bamboo slip in front of Gan Ning and said.

"After Liu Jiyu left, I have secretly gathered your Jinfan bandit brothers who were dismissed where they were, and Jiang Zhi was among them."

"And I need you to lead these Jinfan Thieves to the sea to become pirates, and make a lot of noise according to the goals written on the bamboo slips. I want you to spread the reputation of the 'Jinfan Thieves' to everyone along the coasts of the two states. People don’t know.”

Gan Ning picked up the bamboo slips, and with a hint of excitement in his expression, he responded respectfully.

For Gan Ning, being a "thief" can be regarded as a dream, otherwise Gan Ning would not have been in an environment like Bajun before, and he would have lowered his status to be called a "Jinfan Thief".

But far away from Yizhou, without the constant beating of the Gan family, for Gan Ning, it was tantamount to letting himself go.

"only……"

Gan Ning hesitated for a moment and then spoke. "I don't have a boat, and I would like to ask Mr. Zikun to tell me where there is a boat. I will lead my brothers to grab the boat first."

? ? ! !
Li Ji.

Li Ji was worried at first whether Gan Ning would resist, but he didn't expect that Gan Ning had completely integrated into his role before he even left his sight.

Grab the boat!

He really is a thief!
If it weren't for Li Ji, Gan Ning was still quite useful, maybe Li Ji would have really pulled Gan Ning down and chopped him down.

With this habit, Gan Ning would never be able to afford the three bowls of white rice provided by the regular army for the rest of his life, and the military discipline of the Jinfan thieves under his command would not be much better.

Even though Li Ji's original intention was to let Gan Ning disguise himself as a pirate, he did not let Gan Ning surpass him.

This made Li Ji couldn't help but talk.

"Gan Ning, don't forget that you are a pirate in name, but in fact you are a general under my lord. If you kill innocent people indiscriminately, don't blame the ruthless military law."

Feeling Li Ji's seemingly playful look, Gan Ning was inexplicably startled and responded quickly.

"Yes."

And just when Li Ji was about to ask Gan Ning to go down and settle the three hundred Jinfan thieves first, Gan Ning suddenly said something, which made Li Ji a little confused.

"Mr. Zikun, may I ask your name, so that you can teach me to remember it and be grateful for your kindness at all times."

???

Li Ji.

This time, even Li Ji was stunned for a while before asking. "you do not know me?"

"I don't know." Gan Ning shook his head and replied straightforwardly.

"Then what did you call me just now?" Li Ji asked again.

"Mr. Zikun." Gan Ning answered again.

"Then you try to address me with only two words." Li Ji said helplessly.

"Zikun..."

Suddenly, Gan Ning said with some enlightenment. "It turns out that your nickname is not 'Zi Kun', but your nickname is 'Zi Kun'."

After a pause, Gan Ning continued to ask. "What's your last name, please?"

Li Ji finally understood that Gan Ning Ganqing had never heard of him, and after the first meeting, Gan Ning was either running around or locked in a room and was not allowed to go out, so much so that Gan Ning still didn't even know Li Ji's name. Do not know at all.

"My surname is Li, my given name is Ji, and my courtesy name is 'Zikun'. Tian is the governor of Yangzhou and the county magistrate under Liu Xuande, the governor of Wu County."

Li Ji simply introduced himself, and then sent Gan Ning out to deal with the Jinfan thief problem first.

After Gan Ning left, Li Ji couldn't help but sigh and said to Zhao Yun.

"In the past, I thought that Li Zikun's name had spread throughout the Han Dynasty, but I thought it was self-righteous. There are many people in the world who don't know me!"

"Sir's name will be as good as that of Liuhou sooner or later, and it will be sung by countless people for thousands of years." Zhao Yun replied solemnly.

Li Ji waved his hand and said with a smile on his face. "Zilong, there's no need to comfort me. I'm just feeling emotional for a moment."

In the final analysis, Li Ji's reputation generally spread among the scholars in the Central Plains region, and in addition, it spread again to Yangzhou as the center after the establishment of the "Rende Academy".

It's just that Yizhou is located in the middle of Shu and is already remote. In some small places, it is not even clear whether the reign name has been changed for three to five years, let alone the reputation of Li Ji, a mere county magistrate.

As for Gan Ning, he was not in the scholar circle, and he was still in Bajun, far away from the Central Plains. In addition to court documents, the only two channels for obtaining information from the outside world were the exchanges between merchants and the communication of letters between aristocratic families.

I don’t know Li Ji’s name, but it’s not surprising after Li Ji thought about it carefully! (End of chapter)
