Wu Shigong became irritable again when he heard the refugees' questions.He couldn't help standing up and walking around in the study.Seeing Wu Shigong's indecision, everyone in the room held their breath, not daring to disturb Wu Shigong's thinking, and waited for him to make a final decision.

After thinking for a long time, Wu Shigong finally made up his mind.He sat back in his seat and began to introduce his failure to borrow money in Nanjing to the people present.

Regarding Wu Shigong's failure to borrow money, people like Deng Qifan and Xue Yongli already knew the result.At this time, it was nothing more than listening to Wu Shigong introduce the detailed process again.However, since the current finances of the Runing Army can still support it, Deng Qifan and the others don't feel like the sky is falling.

After talking about the story, Wu Shigong said: "Actually, the failure to borrow money this time has given me the biggest harvest. That is to abandon all illusions, and we must rely on ourselves to do everything that our Runing Army does."

"The food and salaries of the imperial court are unreliable; the friendship of noble officials and eunuchs is unreliable; even the government is unreliable; the friendly army is even more unreliable. We, the Runing Army, plus the militia and the Department of Internal Affairs, have secretly developed 5000 paid armed forces. There are also more than 800 local officials who are not recognized by the imperial court."

"To be honest, as long as the imperial court gives an order, if our Runing Army is obedient, then our foundation will disappear immediately. Are you willing to lose everything in your hands?"

"But our Runing Army took such a big risk, what is the purpose of doing everything? In this troubled world, we encourage students, fight disasters and encourage farmers, stabilize the place, rescue refugees, and sacrifice so many Haoerlang and Tatars. The son fought against the Shaanxi bandits. Why are we? For the Ming Dynasty, for the Chinese clothes passed down from our ancestors!"

As he spoke, Wu Shigong's voice became high-pitched, and his expression became visibly excited.Wu Shigong hammered the table and then shouted: "But is there anyone who shares weal and woe with us? Is there anyone who just helps us a little bit? No! Not a single one! They just know that they are dying, and they are just waiting for this building to collapse!"

"Since there is no! Then we will do it ourselves! I admit that our Runing Army is still very weak. But even if we throw all our belongings into it, I have no regrets. Our Runing Army is the best Huaxia Sons and daughters, we here are the elite of the elite! This is the responsibility entrusted to us by God and the ancestors of all generations in China, who else but me!?"

"Starting today, the entire border of Runing Mansion and Guide Mansion will be opened, and all refugees will be screened. Scholars above childhood and officials' homes will be properly resettled; craftsmen, those who can ride horses and use firearms, those who can read, and other useful people All orphans under the age of 14 and orphans over the age of 60 are also accepted, and their resettlement and living expenses are borne by my inner house.”

"In addition, all the refugees, as long as they pay a resettlement fee of one or two silver per person, they will all accept it. Those who cannot pay for the time being, can work for our Runing Army in the future and return it at a discount. However, their resettlement must also follow the rules of our Runing Army. s arrangement!"

"My lord!" Deng Qifan immediately left the table.He bowed his hands and saluted: "My lord's benevolence can live countless people! Students are not talented, and they don't have much money, and they are willing to bear the maintenance expenses of some orphans and orphans. Moreover, what your lord has done should be widely publicized, so that the court princes Let all the people in the world know your benevolence!"

Hearing Deng Qifan's words.Others present also stood up to express their views.Wu Shigong smiled and let everyone sit down: "I understand everyone's righteous deeds, but we still let our wives be busy with the matter of giving gruel and clothing. It's troublesome for the old ladies to stay in the inner house all the time. Let them be busy and we don't have to worry about it." !"

Wu Shigong's words provoked laughter in the study.Wu Shigong continued: "However, Mr. Deng's words just now are very reasonable. It is necessary to pay attention to publicity. Our Runing Army has lost money. Then we are not allowed to shout a few times? The court is fine, and there is no one who is willing to do it for us. The officials we shouted at. But in the school opened by our Runing Army, all the armies, as well as Tuntian Zhuangzi and the major refugee gathering points, we must publicize these contents to everyone's ears."

"Also, Mr. Deng will find an official who is articulate and quick-witted, and set up a propaganda bureau first. Let him be in charge of this aspect. Then tell him that if this matter is done well, then the propaganda bureau will Promoted to the Propaganda Department."

Deng Qifan immediately saluted and promised!

Then the formal proceedings began.Wu Shigong first threw out the modern financial industry that he thought of.With so many wonderful ideas, everyone present was stunned.

However, they decided on the spot that the savings business of the Universal Bank will be implemented immediately.There are no sequelae to this business.The worst result is that no one saves.As for the other financial industries, Yuan Xingshan will be in charge, convening the senior shopkeepers of the Four Seas Commercial Bank and the Four Seas Bank to jointly discuss, trying to come up with one plan in a short time, and then implement it one by one after the senior officials of the Runing Army decide.

After that it's the chores.Basically there is no big problem.Wu Shigong was in the middle to coordinate.

But when it came to military issues, Wu Shigong paid more attention: "Uncle Yongli! Although it seems that the Shaanxi bandits are desperate now. But let's imagine that if the Shaanxi bandits are saved from desperation, their next move will open to Where? I think we have a great possibility in Henan."

"The Nanyang Legion reported: there are a large number of rioters around Nanyang Fucheng, and now Nanyang Fucheng only dares to open the city gate for one hour a day. The Nanyang prefect and Sun Shen will send letters to the Nanyang Legion several times, demanding that Nanyang Legion to rescue Fucheng."

"What I mean is that we should stand still for the time being, and we can't move in that direction. In case the Shaanxi bandits get out of trouble and enter Henan, and the Nanyang Army goes out to rescue them in a large scale, wouldn't they face the Shaanxi bandits head-on? It's better to stay with the generation in Ye County to save Where is the periphery of our Runing Army."

"The Rusong Runing Legion should also be deployed in the southwest of Runing Mansion to prevent the Shan bandits from getting out of trouble. You know, as long as the Shan bandits enter Henan, Nanyang Mansion or Henan Mansion will be their first stop!"

"Our Runing Army Headquarters should also make preparations. Now we will stop our vacation and do a complete defense in our west direction. If we don't take the initiative to attack, we should take a defensive position. The situation there is too complicated!" (To be continued) ..)
