Yao Xian's intention was probably guessed, but he still had doubts in his heart, could it be that this woman really cared about the people in dire straits, so she came to offer advice? But since ancient times, the donor's intentions are nothing more than fame and fortune, and with his opinion of Yao Shi, the latter is absolutely impossible to simply care about the people.

But he didn't know what to say, so let's listen to Yao Shi's thoughts for the time being, and then said: "Miss Yao, it doesn't hurt to say it, as long as it can benefit the people, no matter what the method, it's worth trying." ”

Yao Shi didn't sell Guanzi either, and said bluntly: "Actually, my method is very simple, the so-called food, clothing, housing and transportation."

First of all, in the matter of dressing refugees, in addition to the distribution of the imperial court, you can also collect from the households in Beijing, every household has clothes that cannot be worn, and the poor families will change the size to the next generation to wear, but those rich and noble families do not wear clothes, but there are many clothes. ”

Shan Cha's eyebrows jumped slightly, surprise flashed in his eyes, and he quickly disappeared, and then said after a while: "Miss Yao, this is a good method, not to mention the slow speed of the imperial court's clothing, the number of refugees is large, not to mention that there are refugees from other towns, one person can get at most one piece of clothing, if the people donate, the situation will be very different, it's just ......"

"I know what the sole master is worried about, how to get these people to donate willingly. ”

Shan Cha smiled: "This donation method has rarely been used by the imperial court since ancient times, but there is a donation of food, but this donation of clothes ......"

As long as the clothes are washed and cleaned, the key is whether the people donate or not. ”

Shan Cha nodded again: "The big family with a head and face may take out some clothes, but I'm afraid that more people will not be happy." "Who would be willing to take out their clothes and donate them, even if they don't wear them, they are not happy, and if they don't pay attention, they will cause public outrage.

Yao Shi said: "It is not easy to resettle refugees, and at this time it is bound to require some external pressure. ”

"You mean, the court ordered pressure?"

"Only when the imperial court decrees and draws up a reasonable charter can the donation of clothes proceed smoothly. But...... If you only ask for it and don't give it back, the people will definitely be resentful......" Yao Yan paused before continuing: "I thought that we could build a monument of merit. ”

Shan Cha's eyes were clear, but there was some hesitation in his heart, the merit tablet is a kind of inscription that records personal merits, and the inscription will engrave personal deeds and merits, as a kind of glory that will be passed down for a long time.

Generally, the merit monument is burned, and the individuals who have made significant contributions and sacrifices to the country are all in the West Night Country so far, and there are only more than 20 merit monuments in total, and it seems that the merit monument is engraved just for the donation of clothes......

Yao Xian looked at the color, guessed what he thought, and asked rhetorically: "The single master book thinks that the matter of donating clothes is not enough to use the merit monument? But this is also to save the people from fire and water, regardless of the size of the matter, and the merit should not be divided into size, not to mention that this clothing donation merit monument can also play a cohesive role in the West Night Kingdom to a certain extent." ”

Shan Cha knew that Yao Xian's words had not yet been finished, and said seriously: "I would like to hear the details." ”

Yao Xi continued: "The merit monument can record the merits of a person, and naturally it can also record the merits of a group of people, there are refugees in every city and town, and the imperial court can advocate that a city build a merit monument, but all donors, their names will be burned."

In this way, the merit monument is not only the glory of a group of people, but also the glory of a city, and even the glory of the entire Western Night Kingdom, which is very beneficial to the imperial court. She looked at Shan Cha with a smile.

For the imperial court, this is an opportunity to show the people of the West Night that the people are rich and strong, and the whole country has built a monument of merit, which shows that the people are pure, and it is also a good story for the incumbent, but there are two sides to everything.

In this way, not only the common people were encouraged, but also the local yamen, but they were afraid that someone would breed trouble in the name of the imperial court. "Shan Chadao.

"The detailed charter must be to be thought about with Liao Jingzhao by the master bookkeeper, to calm down the refugee incident, and restore order and tranquility in Beijing. ”

Shan Cha couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head: "Miss Yao, this is a big problem for me, if you don't pay attention to it, I'm afraid that people won't be able to protect their heads, this is not easy." ”

"But if you can't solve the problem, won't you still be questioned?" Yao Yan asked rhetorically, she also knew that the matter of the merit monument was not a trivial matter, but this was indeed a feasible method, and it could even solve the refugee problem in other states and counties, but it was just carefully planned, but this was not within the scope of her consideration.

Shan Cha took a sip of tea, "Leave aside the problem of clothing for the time being, this problem of food and accommodation, Miss Yao also has a clever plan?"

Yao Xian chuckled: "Liao Jingzhao and the single master have also thought about this method, these refugees are homeless, have no land to plant, and naturally have no rice to eat. ”

Shan Cha said in a loud voice: "Indeed, Jing Zhaoyin and I have also come up with the only way to let them reclaim the wasteland, so that it can be done once and for all, but the distant water can't save the near fire, and now it's summer, and this wasteland can't be reclaimed in a while, missing this year's spring and autumn seasons, and there will be no rice to eat next year." ”

In fact, this is also where he and Liao Weizhang are very difficult, they can't catch up with the seeds, they won't have food to eat next year, and these refugees will still have no food rations next year.

"How about letting the princes, princes, and ministers share some of their private land?"

Shan Cha was obviously stunned, and let them donate their private land, this is not nonsense.

"I'm not referring to donating private land to refugees, there are countless private lands among the officials in Beijing, and most of them will be given to others, but there are still a lot of empty fields," Yao explained.

The refugees could be given some land, but instead of receiving their tenant silver, the court only needed to distribute crop seeds and let the refugees plant their own crops, and after three years, they would collect their tenant silver.

For those who are dignitary, a few acres of land is not enough to pay for a meal, but this move can not only save the refugees from the suffering of lack of rice next year, but also accumulate good virtue for the ministers. ”

After listening to it, I couldn't help but bow my head slightly, what Yao Xi said was not unreasonable, the refugees fled thousands of miles to Beijing, and the meaning of the imperial court was also to resettle, since it was to be resettled, these problems were bound to come up with a long-term method, although Yao Shi's method did not follow common sense, but it was also a long-term law and order method.

"This matter has to be discussed in the long run, and there are a lot of things involved, and I will report this matter to him when Jing Zhaoyin returns to the yamen. His tone already showed that he was serious.

Yao Xian smiled and nodded: "It's good if it can be used, this 'borrowing land' matter, I'm afraid I have to discuss with the Ministry of Households, and the matter of reclaiming wasteland has to cooperate with the Ministry of Industry, and the two adults will have a hard time in the future." ”

Shan Cha looked at Yao Shi with a smile: "Miss Yao had already thought about all this before she came, and since the words have been explained, there is no need to hide it anymore." ”

Yao Xian laughed, "Sure enough, I can't hide the single master book with this little bit of caution, I'm ashamed, in fact, when I came here today, I also have something to ask for, I want to ask for something with adults." ”
