Sima Yi's Three Kingdoms Collection Collection

Chapter 33 Incognito, first entry into the official career (3)
Sima Yi glanced at Niu Jin and Liu Yin who were waiting at the door, sighed in embarrassment, shook his head lightly, and said helplessly: "Mr. Du doesn't know, the eighty-year-old from Yuzhou tonight Yu household refugees seem to have stayed overnight in our Hanoi County. But are they really willing to stay in our Hanoi County and settle down in the farmland with peace of mind... This, Yi has not yet found the truth! So, tonight is Yi I want to go out and have a talk with the leader among them—the young man, and persuade them to stay and settle down in Tuntian. This matter really cannot be delayed! Go back and tell Du Juncheng—just say today Wan Yi really can't come to Sihai Building because of this matter. After the things here are fully implemented, Yi must pay for the banquet by herself, and happily invite Du Juncheng to taste the roasted black lamb and steamed milk together How about the delicacy of pigs?"

"Oh... so it's because of this!" Du He listened, and naturally understood that persuading the Yuzhou refugees to stay and live in the farmland is the top priority, so he didn't force it anymore, so he let go and cupped his fists at Sima Yi, saying, "Since that's the case, Lord Rauma will have to worry more! Uncle, Du will go and explain it to you now."

Sima Yi smiled and nodded, watched him go away, then turned back to Liu Yin and Niu Jin.But Niu Jin looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, and joked: "Mr. Sima even gave up such delicacies as roast black lamb and steamed suckling pig, but he came to accompany Brother Liu Yin to reminisce about the old days and talk heart-to-heart. You are a role model among Yuan Xueyuan students who value love and righteousness!"

Sima Yi knew that Niu Jin'er was amazingly sensitive, so he could hear the conversation he had with Du He clearly just now.He smiled faintly at Niu Jin, without saying much, he took Liu Yin's hand and walked out the door.

On the way, Liu Yin couldn't help showing a look of emotion on his face, and said: "Brother Ma...uh, Brother Sima just now sat at the same table with Liu and others in the shed, and ate brown rice and vegetable soup together without changing his face. Don’t forget the simplicity and cleanliness Master taught back then! That official Du and the other police officers are far worse than you—everyone only took a few bites perfunctorily, and then ran out to eat elsewhere... How can Brother Sima be so easy-going and friendly!"

Sima Yi turned his head sideways, squinted at him, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Among my classmates, Liu Yinjun is the one who doesn't like flattery and compliments. Today, your words of praise make Yi feel uneasy. ..."

Liu Yin shook his head lightly, and sighed: "Liu's words are from the bottom of his heart, and there is no exaggeration. If the officials and gentlemen in all states and counties in the world can be as clean and honest as Brother Sima and love the people, we Xiaomin would not have suffered such a misfortune of being homeless and panicked..." After speaking, tears welled up in his eyes.

Hearing this, Sima Yi felt pity in his heart, and his nose was sour.He was quiet for a while, then smiled warmly, and comforted him: "Oh! Liu Jun—now that the imperial court has issued a good policy to appease the refugees and to recuperate in the fields, you don't have to be so wandering and tossing and tossing around! Follow this policy Zhi Ling, if you stay in our Hanoi County, each household will be allocated [-] mu of wheat fields and [-] mu of rice fields, and the first year's land tax will be exempted, and in this first year, you can also enjoy The monthly subsidy of four buckets of rice per household from the government!"

"Oh? Is there really such a good national policy?" Liu Yin was happy for a while after hearing this, and then he couldn't help asking, "Brother Sima—are you just making up a joke to tease Liu?"

"Really. How could I lie to you?" Sima Yi opened his eyes wide and looked at Liu Yin squarely, nodding his head like a drum.

"Liu Yin, my son really didn't lie to you about this." Niu Jin, who had been listening quietly with his arms folded, also spoke at this time, "If you stay here to live in peace and settle down in the fields, plant Ten acres of land, planted with hundreds of mulberry trees, there is food to eat, cloth to wear, enough food and clothing, isn’t life getting better day by day?”

"That's good!" Liu Yin murmured, looking at the depths of the night sky with haze in his eyes, "I'm afraid you two are fooling us into daydreaming, if it's what you two said , our more than [-] households have burned incense and kowtowed to you two in every household, how can there be anyone who is unwilling to stay?"

"Don't believe it, maybe tomorrow Tianyi will take you to divide the fields and harvest the grain!" Sima Yi stretched out his hand and patted Liu Yin's shoulder, hehe said with a smile.

"Okay, after I go back tonight, I will persuade everyone to stay here and settle down in the farmland!" Liu Yin replied with a serious face and nodded.

"Okay, tell Yi about the situation in Ziyuan Academy in Linglong Valley." Sima Yi saw that the matter of garrisoning the land and reassuring the people has been settled, so he changed the subject and asked with a slight smile, "I miss you very much now." Mr. Guan and fellow students."

"Oh...don't mention it, Linglong Valley Ziyuan Academy has been closed long ago." Liu Yin said sadly with a sad face, "Ever since you left the Academy two years ago, Brother Sima, it's been less than four months. , Zhou Xuan, and Hu Zhao also left one after another. Only us, the local students near Linglong Valley, are still there. After more than two months, after the master accumulated grain in the scattered garden, he also left. I took Ke Ling to Liaodong for refuge, and Ziyuan Academy was closed like this."

"Master, they went to Liaodong?" Sima Yi heard this, and sighed deeply, "Master is really profound and profound! He regards the disputes in the world like snails fighting each other, and he is graceful and independent. Yi can't do it !"

"Later, Li Jue, Guo Si and other remnant soldiers fought with Ma Teng and Han Sui's troops from Xiliang in counties and counties around Linglong Valley. Our village was affected by the flames of war, and we could no longer live in peace, so we had to leave our hometown for refuge. "Liu Yin continued talking, with big tears hanging on the corners of his eyes unknowingly, "We heard that Jizhou is guarded by General Yuan Shao, the most powerful prince, and it seems to be a little more stable than other places in the world, so we are going to I went to Jizhou, I never thought I would meet you here..."

"Jizhou is not necessarily so stable..." Sima Yi raised his eyes, stared at the starry sky in the north, and suddenly said with deep emotion, "Didn't Fang Ying live in Yecheng within Jizhou? I sent someone to I went to Yecheng to look for her, but I didn't expect their family to disappear there inexplicably, and I couldn't find it no matter how I searched... Also, in Jizhou, the powerful clans are fighting for the land, which is also a chaotic situation Fantastic! General Yuan seems to be indecisive, and he doesn't have the courage to hold back."

Speaking of this, his gaze slowly retracted from the star-studded night sky, cast it quietly on Liu Yin's face, and said leisurely: "Fang Ying has disappeared in Jizhou territory, which has already made Yi extremely distressed! Yi doesn't want you, Jun Liu, to go to Jizhou to repeat her tragedy..."

Corrupt officials and powerful

The whistling north wind scurry in mid-air, blowing the piles of gray clouds to scatter.

Under the dark blue sky, Sima Yi, Niu Jin, Liu Yin, Zhang Ershu, Tian Wubo and other [-] or [-] household head representatives of Yuzhou refugees, led by Du He, came to the long pavilion ten miles east of Hanoi County. Allotment of fields on a hillside.

The hillside was barren as far as the eye could see, and the weeds grew as high as their knees.However, when we pushed aside the weeds and looked at the ground, the soil there was as dry as dust, and it would shatter when touched lightly, without any moisture.This is the most barren tile land that the locals in Hanoi County are least willing to cultivate!

Seeing this, Sima Yi secretly frowned—is it possible that this kind of barren, barren and low-quality land is the only thing that can be used to recruit and resettle refugees in Hanoi County?These are not even comparable to the worst fields around Linglong Valley!Can Liu Yin and the others grow wheat here?He was about to ask, but Du He was the first to say: "Master Ma, these are the official lands and official land allocated by the county government to accommodate refugees from all over the world! Anyway, it is a standard of [-] mu for a household, and you can start now." Preside over the division and measurement, and allocate to each of their accounts."

"This..." Niu Jin couldn't help screaming when he saw it, "Master Du, don't you go to the wrong place? How can such land grow food?"

Sima Yi's face was as serious as iron, but he didn't make a sound. He sneaked a sideways glance at the homeowners standing behind him, and saw that they all shook their heads secretly, their faces full of disappointment.

Here, Du He listened to Niu Jin's question, with no shame on his face, he still said carelessly: "Brother Niu—how could Du have gone to the wrong place? These are the official lands exclusive to our Hanoi County, Official land!" He glanced at Liu Yin, Zhang Ershu, Tian Wubo and other displaced household heads, and said calmly: "Actually, everyone should be able to figure it out. The imperial court exempts rent and allocates food. It is already a great favor for you to let you plant and farm the land! How can there be any good land left there for you? More or less such a piece of land is allocated to you, this is already a great favor! Very cheap for you..."

Sima Yi didn't pay much attention to his nonsense playing with the flower gun. He glanced around and saw that there were large fertile paddy fields under this barren slope.He felt relieved for a while, turned back to Liu Yin and said, "Forget it! Forget it! The wheat fields on this slope are really bad, but the rice fields on this slope look pretty good. The so-called 'everything is hard to get the best of both worlds', everyone It can damage the excess of rice fields and make up for the deficiency of wheat fields.”

Hearing what Sima Yi said, and seeing the fertile rice fields at the foot of the hillside, Liu Yin, Zhang Ershu, Tian Wubo and other representatives of the refugee households showed some smiles on their faces.

Suddenly, Du He's voice resounded: "Master Ma, you are wrong—the rice field under this hillside is not the official field of our county government."

"Huh?" Sima Yi's heart was shocked, and he couldn't help turning his head to stare at him, "These rice fields seem to have been vacant all the time! What is this uncultivated field, if it's not an official field?"

"Master Ma doesn't know something," Du He said with flattering smiles, "These rice fields are private fields under the names of two big families in this county, Yuan Xiong and Yuan Hun."

Sima Yi suddenly changed his face slightly. As far as he knew, Yuan Xiong and Yuan Hun were also wealthy foreigners who moved to Hanoi County in the past four or five years. ?If these good fields are not official fields, then where are the rice fields allocated to these Yuzhou refugees?
While he was meditating, Na Duhe approached him winkingly, and said to him in a low voice: "Master Ma, you have to ask my uncle Du Juncheng about the details of resettling refugees and allocating fields, and he will tell you Explain in detail..."
