The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

The river bank burst is a big deal at any time. The court even has to allocate funds to repair the river bank.

Therefore, Jiang Que has the heaviest burden on his shoulders.

It's just not the most urgent.

The most urgent thing right now is the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the thousands of disaster victims.

We must ensure that they all move into houses before the weather gets cold, and that the fields are recultivated within the next ten days, so that there will be a harvest early next year.

Otherwise, they will starve.

The food provided by the court for disaster relief is not continuous, and more of it depends on the local self-help and finding ways on their own.

After all, the court has too many things to take care of and too many places to take care of.

A Linying County is insignificant compared to the entire Tang Dynasty.

There are only so many people in the court, and there are so many things to deal with every day. Can they handle them all?

The court officials also deal with important matters.

Obviously, the Linying County incident has been going on for such a long time that it is no longer the most urgent matter and is no longer at the top of the list.

After the situation stabilizes, the rest is the same as what has been done before, just follow the process. There are templates for disaster relief.

Whether it is the Wude period or earlier, natural disasters have occurred.

According to past experience, just deal with it.

So Li Fu felt that the possibility of getting resources from the court in the future would not be as great as before.

Before, whatever was needed was given. If there was a shortage of grain, it was transferred from Hanjia Granary. If there was a shortage of other things that the court could not requisition, Li Fu would handle it himself.

So Li Fu handled it, and His Majesty Li II owed the local government a lot of famine.

Just pay it back slowly. For the central government, that little bit of money is not a big deal.

After the notice was issued, Li Fu was still considering how Linying County would go in the future.

Although it is said that everything will basically return to normal when there is a harvest next year.

However, the people's property has been washed away. Even if they want to return to their previous lives, they still lack something.

Lack of money.

Without money, they can only rely on farming. There are no oxen. In the past, don't look at the messy things in the house, they are not valuable, but now they are really poor. Think about those worthless assets before, every thing is useful and precious.

It is too difficult for ordinary people to save up their assets again.

They can only farm or work for others to earn some odds and ends.

At the end of the year, there is nothing left to support the family.

If you want a county to develop, you still need to have a pillar industry with local characteristics.

Li Fu is thinking about this problem. The notice has been sent out and the cake has been painted for people. When they come back, they can't just stare blankly.

If you want to rebuild Linying City, the fourth step after the first three steps is to make Linying City have local characteristic industries.

What should you do?

"Wu Liangye!" Li Fu shouted outside the tent.

"I'm here." Wu Liangye responded.

"Wu Liangye, I'll give you a task. Find out what special products there are around Linying County before, which are available here but not elsewhere. Also, what else the people here can do besides farming for a living." Li Fu said, "As soon as possible."

"Yes." Wu Liangye responded with a bow.

Li Fu stayed in the tent, thinking about what work he should find for them.

There must be an agricultural economy and an industrial economy. The combination of the two is the foundation of Linying County, the basis for strengthening the county, and the way to enrich the people.

In addition to the places where people live, if we want to develop other industries to achieve the goal of enriching the people, we must build industrial clusters, revitalize land utilization, and encourage people to start "secondary businesses" other than farming.

Only in this way can the economy of Linying be quickly revived, so that the people can return to their previous living standards in a short period of time, or even go to a higher level.

After the day's work is over, Jiang Que, Yan Lide and Zhao Chong will come to Li Fu to report, and talk about the problems they encountered and the work arrangements for the next day.

When they came this time, they saw Li Fu sitting there with a serious face, frowning, and I don't know what he was thinking.

Everyone's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that something happened again?

"Your Highness?" Yan Lide stepped forward and greeted quietly.

Li Fu heard the noise, came back to his senses, and saw that the three people had arrived.

"Well? You are all here, sit down." Li Fu waved his hand.

The three of them sat down.

"When I came in just now, I saw that Your Highness looked worried. Did you encounter any difficulties?" Yan Lide asked cautiously.

Li Fu shook his head.

"Not really.What a big deal. I was thinking, after the reconstruction of Linying County, the people have a place to live and the land has been recultivated. However, if Linying is to be restored to its former prosperity, it will be difficult to rely on farming alone.

Moreover, after the notice is issued, more people will come to Linying in the future. It is impossible to write in the notice that they are passionate and let them get nothing after they come back and contribute money and effort, right? "

This method can only be used once to call people to come without any benefits.

Next time, they will not eat this cake.

Then at least leave a merit tablet in the city.

It is also okay to engrave their names on it, which is also a kind of honor.

Fame and profit, you have to choose one for them.

"Then your highness, what have you thought of?" Jiang Que asked.

"There is no way for the time being, but whether it is by the river bank or in the city, I think of erecting two merit tablets. "Li Fu said: "People who have contributed to the reconstruction of Linying County should not be buried. At least let the later generations know that there was such a group of people who worked hard for this."

"Including the army brought by Captain Zhao, their names should also be listed there. They are the ones who have been the most tired and hardest during this period of time." Li Fu said, stroking his chin.

If this news is spread now, it can boost the low morale for a period of time again. No matter how long it takes, it is useful.

People's fatigue has reached a critical point and they need to be injected with new vitality.

This is the temporary solution that Li Fu came up with in the afternoon.

As for how long this buff can last in the future, Li Fu is not sure.

He has thought of all the tricks he can think of.

For a month and a half in a row, the time was very full every day, and the soldiers were also complaining.

After all, it was all high-intensity labor.

"Your Highness's move is great. "Yan Lide's eyes were full of excitement.

Engrave the name on the monument and leave it for eternity.

How many people will be moved by this.

Moreover, rebuilding Linying is a feat in itself, and engraving the monument is not an exaggeration at all.
