The Golden County Magistrate

"I don't know how the Jizhou refugees broke through the government's defense line and headed south... south."

"Although the government tried its best to stop and provide relief along the way, a large number of refugees were still not stopped."

"It is said that the earliest batch is almost in Longzhou..."

Li Rui knelt on the ground, trying to calm her voice.

She knew how serious this matter was!

When the Jizhou uprising broke out, Tang Yun immediately controlled the three neighboring states to prevent the number of refugees from increasing.

At the same time, she tried to drive the fleeing refugees to places with grain storage and provide relief.

This measure can not only reduce the pressure on the other states, but also control the scope of refugee escape, so that it will not bring about a nationwide catastrophic impact.

Due to the blockade of Tianxuan Mountain, the refugees basically did not flee to Yongzhou in the northwest, but gradually spread to the border junction of Yuzhou, Xuzhou and Jizhou.

Originally, it was fine at first, and the fleeing refugees were basically under control.

But later, for some unknown reason, a large number of refugees suddenly left the relief site and continued to move south.

Although the government troops tried every means to stop them, they could not stop them at all!

The strangest thing was that the refugees from Jizhou were familiar with the terrain of Yuzhou and Xuzhou, and played hide-and-seek with the government troops by taking advantage of the mountainous terrain.

The cavalry could not play a role, and the government troops could only chase and stop them on foot, which was basically useless.

When the news came back to the capital, Tang Yun almost exploded with anger.

"What a bunch of rubbish!"

"The prefects of Yuzhou and Xuzhou, who received salaries from the court, can't even do this!"

Tang Yun was so angry that she cursed and wished she could fly over to the scene to remove those useless officials.

Li Rui waited until she was angry enough before carefully saying: "Your Majesty, how about lifting the ban?"

The so-called ban refers to Tang Yun's previous special instructions that refugees should not be killed.

The government troops were therefore somewhat restrained and could not use force to stop the refugees from fleeing.

If the ban could be lifted, it might have a deterrent effect and delay the refugees from fleeing.

Without thinking, Tang Yun said decisively: "No! Refugees are also my people, how can I do that?"

Although He Jinyao's side was progressing smoothly, Tang Yun was still in a state of panic.

Fenglingwei secretly investigated the people who instigated the uprising in Jizhou, and sent pigeons back every day.

However, there was no progress!

Now the refugees have become a problem again. I just put down the rebellion of the rebel king. I originally hoped to improve people's livelihood and restore the prosperity of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but it turned out like this!

Is this world going to become a chaotic world again?

Tang Yun sighed, and Qingshan County suddenly flashed through her mind.

Damn it!

Why is the country so stable and prosperous under that guy's rule?

If Chen Yan is willing to come and share her worries, maybe the world will be much more stable.

The hateful thing is that she knew too well that the guy had no intention of entering the court, and only wanted to stay in Qingshan County to make his fortune!

If she forced him to come, this guy would inevitably not work hard.

And she couldn't force him now, otherwise if she pushed him too hard, he would refuse to help in business cooperation, and the Zhou Chamber of Commerce would not be able to make money, and the national treasury would not be able to solve the emergency, and the plan to help Jizhou would be ruined.

Not to mention the subsequent plan to break through the Tianxuan Mountains, without his secret weapon, it would not be successful at all!

Li Rui didn't know what Tang Yun was thinking, and didn't dare to interrupt, so she could only watch her pace back and forth in annoyance.

Suddenly, Tang Yun's body trembled and she stopped: "Not good!"

Li Rui said in surprise: "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

Tang Yun said with an ugly face: "The refugees have arrived in Longzhou, and Qingshan County will not be spared! It is the last paradise of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it cannot be affected! You immediately send someone to send a message to the governor of Longzhou on my behalf, asking him to be prepared. In addition, send someone to inform Chen Yan about this matter, and ask him to be careful too!"

It would be fine at other times, but now she has to make money to raise disaster relief funds. If something happens in Qingshan County, where will she get the goods? Anywhere can go wrong, but not Qingshan County!

Li Rui hurriedly responded: "Yes!"

She was about to leave, but Tang Yun suddenly stopped her again: "Wait! No need, you prepare a fast horse, I want to go there in person!"

Longzhou, where Qingshan County is located, is adjacent to Sili, where the capital is located.

It will take less than half a day to get there by fast horse from the capital.

If you hurry up, go now and you can get back in the evening.

She had another matter that could not be told to outsiders, and she had to discuss it with Chen Yan in person, and it was just right to deal with the refugee issue at the same time.

Afternoon, Qingshan County.

In the small private room on the second floor of the Banquet Hall, Chen Yan and Zhang Dabiao clinked their glasses.

"This cup is for you, kid! Cheers!"

"Thank you, sir! I will not fail in my mission!"

The two-liang wine glass was instantly drained.

Chen YanPutting down the cup, he smiled like an old fox: "There are quite a few refugees coming this time, you must handle them well! Don't let the news leak out, or it will cause trouble for me later!"

Zhang Dabiao laughed: "You are still worried about me doing things? But seriously, you are also a god, how do you know that these refugees can definitely reach our Longzhou?"

Chen Yan smiled mysteriously: "Even if they can't get there, I will let them get there!"

Zhang Dabiao's brain is not very sharp, but after all, he has been with him for a long time, so he understands and gives a thumbs up: "You are really a genius!"

Chen Yan accepted it without blushing.

Now the rebellion has basically subsided, the Nafu Camp has not achieved any results for a long time, and the cheap labor force in the tea garden has not been replenished for a long time.

So he had already set his sights on the refugees during this Jizhou uprising.

Tang Yun would never have thought that the reason why these refugees suddenly lost control and risked their lives to go south was because Chen Yan had done something.

When Chen Yan first arrived in Qingshan County, the population was sparse and even the most basic labor force could not be guaranteed. How could there be any strength for construction?

Even if he had more ideas, he couldn't do it without manpower!

Therefore, he formulated a strategy of attracting people first, and let the Nafu Camp start with the surrounding mountain bandit deserters to gradually increase the population of Qingshan County.

But this is not enough.

After all, there are limited mountain bandit deserters. Chen Yan also targeted refugees who were wandering around because of the war. He also selected suitable candidates from the Nafu Camp and organized a special task force to be responsible for such affairs.

The only task of this team is to find refugees everywhere, and then encourage them to come to Qingshan County on their own.

You must know that there were many wars in the first five years of the Great Zhou Dynasty. There were not many other things, but the most refugees!

This is the main force of the more than 60,000 people in Qingshan County today.

However, the war has gradually calmed down in the past two years, especially Qingshan County has become rich and prosperous, and there are fewer refugees nearby, which has slowed down the plan to increase the population.

As a result, God favored them and the people of Jizhou changed!
