Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Hundred Wastes to be Rebuilt

Liu Xian sent the fish to the officers and soldiers of the entire Yang County, not only to the commander of the city guards.

In front of everyone's eyes, I believe that he will not dare to swallow it alone.

What's more, it's just a small favor, and it's nothing. It's just that in this period of food shortage, fresh meat is indeed a rarity.

Liu Xian sent out more than 100 catties of fish at once, which was regarded as a good fate with the officers and soldiers of Yangshi County.

No, this chief told Liu Xian a lot about Yang's County.

This is called Luo Shu.

It turned out that Huangfu Song did not assign a county order to come to Yang's County, but only sent a county commander and a county lieutenant to come. Moreover, the officers and soldiers only sent one team of officers and soldiers, and one team of officers and soldiers and horses was five or fifty people.

Yangshi County was originally occupied by the Yellow Turban Army, but that was in the early days, and the Yellow Turban Army at that time did not attack ordinary people. just killed the officials of the government and dispersed the officers and soldiers, and then destroyed some big households in Yang's County and robbed the big ones of money and grain.

In this way, the people of Yangshi County did not suffer much impact from the Yellow Turban Army at the beginning.

However, Yangshi County has been in a state of no government since then. Later, the situation was a little dramatic, after the Yellow Turban Army dispersed, the officers and soldiers came, and when the officers and soldiers left, the Yellow Turban Army would enter Yang's county again.

When the officers and soldiers come, they will ask for a large amount of money and food, and when the Yellow Turban Army comes, they will directly grab it.

This also made the people of Yangshi County very sad, and those small and medium-sized landlords, rich households, merchants, and so on were even more unhappy. Whether it is an officer or an officer or a Yellow Turban Army, they will be the first to be knifed.

They also realized that this was not the way to go, so those small and medium-sized landlords and wealthy households united and gathered their young and strong families, a total of more than 200 people, and then formed the self-defense force of Yangshi County.

They then introduced a landlord and wealthy family head who was more famous in Yangshi County, and temporarily served as the leader of their Yangshi County Self-Defense Force and gave orders.

The team of more than 200 people is equivalent to the number of officers and soldiers in the original county.

But they felt that this was not enough, after all, it turned out that they also had more than 200 officers and soldiers in Yang's County, but they were still easily attacked by the Yellow Turban Army. In this way, the officers and soldiers who had been dispersed were called on to return to the unit, and those officers and soldiers all hid home after being dispersed. In this way, dozens of officers and soldiers of the original government were obtained.

In this way, there are nearly 300 young and strong people, and they simply replace the original government and let them guard Yang's County.

These small and medium-sized landlords, wealthy households, and merchants do this, and they mainly want to save themselves.

Later, the ordinary people in the county really had no food, so they could only buy food from those rich households. If you don't have any money, you can only sell your sons and daughters to sign a deed of sale. In order to survive, ordinary people could only obey their call and join forces with them to defend Yangshi County.

The current Yangshi County is actually in the hands of those small and medium-sized landlords and wealthy households. Huangfu Song is considering the direct appointment of county orders, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to carry out work when he comes to Yangshi County. Therefore, in the name of meritorious service in resisting thieves, the landlord and rich household who were jointly pushed out were recommended as the county magistrate. He only sent the county magistrate and the county lieutenant to assist the county order in rebuilding the official government.

The current county order is called Yang Jie.

The former official of Yang's County was killed, and the real big landlords and wealthy families were basically eaten by the Yellow Turban Army, so among the medium-sized landlords and wealthy households, Yang Jie was the head of a wealthy household with a relatively high reputation in Yang's County, so he was promoted as the leader of the county, and is now the county order.

The county is called Wenshen, and the county lieutenant is called Wang Bao. There is also a county lieutenant, nominated by the county commander Yang Jie, named Suo Qi, who is also the head of a medium-sized wealthy family in Yang's County.

In addition, there are some prefectural magistrates, etc., which are appointed by the prefectural magistrates themselves.

In the Han Dynasty, a county town, in addition to the chief officials, also included officials from all walks of life.

Those petty officials can't be taken lightly, if Liu Xian is bringing fish into the city to sell, this will be under the control of the county governor.

In general, where there are lakes, rivers, and fisheries, there will be water officials, who are responsible for collecting "fishing taxes".

This Luo Shu, although he was only a chief, was one of the five chiefs in the team of officers and soldiers sent by Huangfu Song. He also participated in the whole process of the reconstruction of the government in Yangshi County in the past two or three days, and he also knew about the appointment of some personnel, so he was able to tell Liu Xian so much.

Listening to what he said, the current situation in Yang's County is indeed quite complicated, and it is estimated that for a period of time in the future, there will definitely be an open and secret battle between their county orders and county officials and county lieutenants, and there will be no peace within the government of Yang's County.

But these have nothing to do with Liu Xian, and for the time being, Liu Xian does not have the energy to participate in the internal high-level battles of the Yang County Government, and has not had much impact on them.

After entering the city, Liu Xian had the impression that it was dirty and messy.

There is no prosperity of a county as Liu Xian imagined. Even, there are not many pedestrians in the county, and there is no scene of selling on the street at all.

Depression and depression are the true portrayal of Yang's county.

There are occasional pedestrians, but they are also in a hurry, and some of the people I see are basically yellow-faced and thin-skinned, all of them are listless and worried.

In addition to a few shops in the city, mainly those that sell grain and rice and other grains, they are still open for business, and almost no other shops are open for business, including restaurants and inns.

After observing the main street in Yang's County, Liu Xian had no choice but to ask Uncle Zheng to knock on the door of an inn.

Fortunately, the owner of the inn was still there, which allowed Liu Xian to find a place to settle in the county.

Yang's County is also in ruins.

Liu Xian has already taken a fancy to some shops in the area, and if he can buy them, he can open a restaurant inn in Yang's County.

It's just that I don't know if those shops are still owned shops, Liu Xian asked people to knock on the door, but no one opened the door.

It is also not known whether the government has registered some ownerless buildings in the county. But whether there is a master or not, I am afraid that these must be done by the county order.

Liu Xian decided to take advantage of the time to go to the official office of Yangshi County to meet the county order first, and it would be better to discuss it directly with the county order.

At that moment, Liu Xian asked Chen Gen, Chen Shi and Liu Xue to stay in the inn to guard their things. Then he took Zheng Bo and Liu Fu to the county office.

In fact, Liu Xian has already understood that now Yang's County must be the county that makes Yang Jie have the final say, whether he wants to buy shops or buy grain, I am afraid he has to start with Yang Jie.

Liu Xian has also seen those shops that are still open, and there is very little grain in them, and the price is extremely high.

High-quality rice was actually sold to the point of 100 yuan a catty.

With the 100,000 yuan that Liu Xian was carrying, he could only buy 1,000 catties of rice, which was really outrageous.
