Chapter 73—Tough People's Livelihood

"After the autumn harvest this year, Lantian County will no longer repair water conservancy, pave roads, and start building fortresses. It will take two years to turn Lantian County into a fortress.

I want to let any thieves who want to enter this land and take the fruits of the people's labor here will die without a place to bury their bodies.

J! "

"You are arrogant."

"Jiannu will be knocked down soon, and you will be called back to Beijing by the emperor soon to defend Beijing. You have no time or opportunity to question Lantian County."

Sun Chuanting sighed and said, "You can't build a fortress without five or six years."

Yun Zhao thoughtfully looked at Sun Chuanting and said: "Five or six years is enough time. I tell you that the reason for building such a fortress group is not to guard against others, but to lock myself in with this fortress group. Ambition."

Sun Chuanting said in surprise: "Can you continue to endure for five or six years?"

Yun Zhao said extremely impatiently: "If you don't enter the customs, I will continue to be patient!"

"What happens after establishing a slave and entering the customs?"

Yun Zhao laughed: "You people are all unreliable. Lao Tzu can only rely on yourself, and the people don't dare to count on you. At that time, our own homeland, we will protect ourselves, and we must let Jian slave know. There are people in this land who are willing to sacrifice their lives to protect their families."

"In that case, why are you unwilling to send troops to cooperate with Yang Sichang to eliminate Xiangyang thieves? After Zhang Bingzhong is removed, Northwest Dading!"

Yun Zhao looked at Sun Chuanting with a smile and said, "Have you settled the people?

Have you let the people live and work in peace?

Have you found a way for the people to survive? "

Sun Chuanting shook his head and said, "This matter must be discussed in the long term."

"Long-term plan?

Do you think those kids who are being boiled in the pot can wait until you have a long-term plan?

Do you think that those who are left hungry can wait until you have a long-term plan?

Or do you think those refugees who sell their children, sell their wives and wait for their last bite to eat can wait for your long-term plan?

If you don't arrange them well, it doesn't make sense to kill how many thieves...because...you always have thieves who can't finish killing.

Xiantang, hair like a leek, cut back to life, head like a chicken, cut back to scream, this sentence is not a legend in Daming, but a real thing that is happening.

You are the governor of Shaanxi. After taking office, you never asked about the national economy and the people's livelihood. Once you came over, you started to practice your Qin army.

As soon as I came over, I asked the people of Shaanxi for food and wages, used the money and food of the Shaanxi people to train the Shaanxi people, and then used the trained Shaanxi people to kill the Shaanxi people who had rebelled because they couldn't survive.

Don’t you think there is a big problem here?

Yun is from Shaanxi, so he doesn't like to kill his own people. As long as they don't come to harm us, we have no interest in killing them.

We are waiting, and when they discover that the rebellion still can't get enough to eat and live a good life, they will come by themselves.

At this time, we are giving them a bit of land, a bit of seeds, and some tools, and they will become ordinary people again. "

Sun Chuanting said: "Do they not have to be punished for rebelling and killing?"

Yun Zhao smiled, pointing to Sun Chuanting and said: "You don't understand thieves. The thieves who kill the blood and taste the sweetness will not be willing to come back to farm.

Therefore, all those who are willing to come back to farm are those who do not want to kill. If these people are separated from the thieves, the thieves will have no power. What is remarkable is a group of relatively powerful horse thieves.

This is Lantian County's way of suppressing bandits. "

Sun Chuanting arched his hands and said: "I would like to hear the details!"

Yun Zhao said, "It's not too late. We still have time to go to the asylum in Lantian County to see the miserable appearance of the people under your control."

"What... asylum in Lantian County?"

"That's right, all the refugees who enter Lantian County must be censored. As long as they are honest people, they can enter Lantian County to discuss life after staying here for ten days.

I should isolate them to prevent the disease from being brought into Lantian County. Secondly, identify the refugees. Those who participated in the rebellion may be treated differently. If he does not want to rebel anymore, he will give others a way to survive. "

Yun Zhao washed his face and asked the servant to bring the horse, and went to Phoenix Mountain with Sun Chuanting with his guards.

Liu Ru cut her hair short, wrapped a cloth tape around her chest, put on the clothes of her deceased husband, and spoke in a loud voice. In addition, she was originally taller than an average woman. Therefore, on the wandering road, people Everyone thought she was a young guy.

Although Liu Ru, a farmer, is a woman, she has no small strength. All her belongings are only a wheelbarrow. On the left is the thin mother-in-law sitting on the left, and the young daughter is sitting on the right. All of their belongings are stacked in the wheelbarrow.

As the road became more and more flat and there were more and more pedestrians on the road, Liu Ru's heart had been hanging for a long time before slowly letting go.

"Father, I'm hungry!"

The daughter is used to calling her father, which makes Liu Ru very sad.

"My son, there is still half a piece of cake, give it to the nanny to eat."

Liu Ru glared at her daughter-in-law and said to her mother-in-law: "Mother, she can hold it. You have not eaten for two days. When we get under the big tree in front, we will rest and you will also have something to eat."

The mother-in-law sighed weakly and said: "Always immortal, grab something to eat with my good granddaughter."

Liu Ru smiled and said: "Mother, we have already entered Lantian County. I heard that when we arrived at the asylum, we had food. My daughter and I couldn't be hungry."

The mother-in-law said: "How can you not be hungry, boy, if you can't find a way to survive when you get to Lantian County, you can take your child to look for it, and your mother can live by begging for food."

Liu Ru gritted his teeth without making a sound, and pushed the wheelbarrow hard to move on.

Finally under the big tree, Liu Ru just walked step by step from Xiangyang to Lantian County through such small goals.

Putting down the wheelbarrow, Liu Ru sat on the ground, as if she was falling apart. He picked up the water hyacinth and drank half of the gourd water before he calmed down his groaning belly.

Watching her mother-in-law and daughter eating the last half of the pancake, Liu Ru stood up and said to her mother-in-law, "Mother, I'll go to the locals to find out how to get to the asylum."

"Don't go far."

"I see, mother."

There were some tall crops that Liu Ru didn't know were growing in a field not far from the big tree. Seeing an old man hoeing under the sun, he said loudly: "Old Zhang, the kid has something to ask."

The old man looked up at Liu Ru and said blankly: "Go to the shelter and walk two miles west from here."

Before Liu Ru thanked him, the old man lowered his head and continued to loosen the soil for the corn. It seemed that there were many people asking him about his journey, and the old man got used to it.

Before Liu Ru was leaving, the old man straightened up and said, "Wait."

Liu Ru looked at the old man strangely, and saw that the old man raised his hand to break two cobs of corn from the corn stalk, without peeling the skins, and handed it to Liu Ru: "The crops are not yet ripe. So there will be porridge to drink."

Liu Ru took over this strange crop, thanked the old man as a gift, and listened to the old man saying: "This is called corn. It is new grain in Lantian County. It hasn't matured now, but it can be eaten. Don't peel it. It tastes good when it is baked and eaten on a branch."

After speaking, he waved to Liu Ru to leave, and didn't mean to approach her. Even when the corn was just given to her, the two tried not to touch each other as much as possible.

Liu Ru thought he was discovered by someone disguising herself as a man. He looked carefully at the old man's expression ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and didn't feel like it, so he came back confused.

"Mother, we have food to eat, which was given by the old man just now."

The mother-in-law did not know the two cobs of corn that Liu Ru was holding in her arms, but said to Liu Ru happily, "We are in a good place. The people here are kind-hearted."

Looking at the girl's hunger and thirst, Liu Ru quickly lit a fire on the side of the road, and put it on the fire to barbecue with a branch wearing corn.

At this time, the sun gradually rose, and the big sun in Guanzhong was hanging in the sky and scorching the earth.

The sweet smell of roasted corn gradually dissipated, and the stomachs of the family of three groaned.

Until the corn husk was scorched, the yellow corn kernels inside were exposed. Liu Ru dexterously turned the corn to prevent the corn kernels from being burnt. Until the corn was completely roasted, Liu Ru gave it to the greedy girl. With the hungry mother-in-law, I ate a small half by myself.

After only a bite of roasted corn, Liu Ru said to her mother-in-law, "Mother, how about we use roasted corn as a way to survive in the future?"
