Regarding the modest smile on the face of the abbot of Zhitong, Li Xinchen just smiled slightly, and turned to look at the mountain gate, Zhitong is obviously a smart person, and he doesn't need to say anything else, because compared to these temples, he has more important things to solve.

At this time, he had realized that the number of displaced people had exceeded his imagination, and there were two or three hundred people gathered in this Bao'en Temple, if it wasn't for the fact that the Bao'en Temple was really big enough, I am afraid that it would not be able to accommodate so many people.

This is the case at Bao'en Temple, and the situation at other temples will certainly not be much better.

Looking at these homeless people with stiff expressions on their faces and like puppets, Li Xinchen could only sigh and shake his head. They were ragged and dusty, but this is the true portrayal of the majority of the people of this era.

And the next headache for Li Xinchen is how to resettle these displaced people.

After all, it is now known that there are thousands of displaced people gathered outside the city, and it is not known how many are on their way to flee the famine. This is definitely not a small number, especially for Bashu, where there are already few Han people.

The harsh administration of the Northern Zhou Dynasty gave Li Xinchen a problem, and it also gave him a chance.

Xiao Shilian and Dai Cai walked into Bao'en Temple quickly, and Abbot Zhitong was also an interesting person, so he hurriedly retired. Looking at the figure of Abbot Zhitong leaving, Xiao Shilian couldn't help but pout: "If it weren't for Shizhong, you showed up at a critical time to make an example, I'm afraid these homeless people still don't know where to settle." ”

But Dai Cai was a little worried: "Isn't it a bit reckless for the general to do things like this after all, the monks in these temples have been pampered for so long, and it is considered a little arrogant······ After all, many wealthy families in this city provide incense to these temples, and the general will inevitably offend people by doing so······"

Li Xinchen snorted lightly: "I didn't expect to offend them, but now who dares to stand up and say 'against'?" ”

Dai Cai was stunned for a moment, and then smiled silently. Yes, as Li Xinchen said, now the only family in the entire Bajun City is the Tang clan in Ba County, and everyone can see clearly what Tang Zhengliang's attitude is. As for what kind of attitude Li Xinchen showed, these families actually didn't care, all they had to do was to keep up closely.

What's more, even without Tang Zhengliang, the number of soldiers and horses that Li Xinchen firmly controlled in the entire Ba County was enough for him to deal with all possible threats.

It is conceivable that the temples in the Ba County area will not mix well in the future.

"Zidong, it's not about these trivial things to think about now," Li Xinchen said with a smile, "but how these homeless people should be settled." ”

Dai Cai, Xiao Shilian and others all cheered up, and Li Xinchen pondered: "There are two or three methods that have been thought of, you see these homeless people, although they are mainly women, children, old and weak, but there are also many young people, these people must be selected first." ”

Xiao Shilian bowed slightly, this is for sure, what Li Xinchen needs most is sufficient soldiers in the final analysis, even if there are not many young people among these homeless people, for Li Xinchen, don't be in vain.

"Secondly, the elderly homeless among these people are looking for land to settle down in the surrounding county capitals, and this matter will be handed over to Zidong." Li Xinchen then looked at Dai Cai.

Dai Cai hurriedly responded, after the last war around Ba County, the number of Han people was not large, and many fields were abandoned, and this time it was just the right time to use these displaced people to reclaim the land. And Li Xinchen patted his palms gently:

"Some other women and children, tomorrow will ask Mr. Ouyang to come over to take a look, they can't do the manual work in the workshop, but some sprinkling and sweeping work is still okay, and now the weather is getting colder and colder, and the soldiers also need more armor, just let them help make it, which is the best of both worlds."

Dai Cai and Xiao Shilian subconsciously glanced at each other, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. When they were still feeling relaxed that these displaced people had finally gathered together, Li Xinchen had already begun to think about how to settle next, and even formed a conclusion in his heart, perhaps this was the gap between them and Li Xinchen.

"Chen Zhishen!" Li Xinchen turned around and shouted.

Chen Zhishen, who was directing the distribution of clothes not far away, didn't dare to slack off, and ran over quickly: "What does the general command?" ”

"Scatter all our sentinels, search for the displaced along the main roads, gather them in the city as early as possible, and be careful to spread the word that we are going to settle the displaced as much as possible." Li Xinchen said in a deep voice, "You must personally take responsibility for this matter, and at the same time inform Wangjiangtai and Geyue Mountain, and try to gather the displaced people along the way, so as not to make trouble." ”

Chen Zhishen's face showed a bitter color, if he wants to say that he is good at finding people, but if he wants to talk about the kung fu of propaganda and tongue, he will be in trouble: "General, forgive the last general for being incompetent, what should the last general do after seeing the refugees ······"

Li Xinchen interrupted him with a smile: "How do you usually talk to the villagers?" ”

Chen Zhishen was a little stunned, and Li Xinchen smiled and said: "Just tell them that although there is no good wine and meat in this Bajun City, they will not be hungry in the future." Just think of them as your townsfolk and persuade them to come here. ”

Chen Zhishen also understood at this time, and hurriedly nodded again and again: "This subordinate understands!" ”

"Okay, let's arrange it quickly!" Li Xinchen waved his hand, "If you still let someone see you wandering around the city during the day tomorrow, you can wait and walk around without eating!" ”

Xiao Shilian and Dai Cai both had smiles on their faces, and Chen Zhishen solemnly bowed his hand, turned around and left quickly.

"Zidong, there is another thing to trouble you, you go and ask the head of the Tang family to write a notice and post it in the city to explain the meaning of so-and-so. These displaced people only stay in the city temporarily, and will not have much impact on the lives of the people in the city, and if there is anyone who wants to take this opportunity to recruit workers, they will not be stopped. Li Xinchen paced back and forth, "Just say it clearly." ”

"No!" Dai answered.

For those who are basically illiterate, of course, it is enough to persuade them in the most simple language, but if they say something plain, they don't understand. And if you want to appease the people and the families in this city, it is better to speak more formally.

"That's it for now, hurry up and make arrangements." Li Xinchen clapped his hands.

Waiting for Xiao Shilian and Dai Cai to leave quickly, Li Ping, who had been standing not far away, stepped forward: "General, where are we going next?" ”

"Where to go, of course, it's home." Li Xinchen said.

Li Ping opened his mouth, a little surprised. And Li Xinchen said as a matter of course: "The things that use their brains have been done, and the rest is a matter of keeping them busy, of course they will go home to make up for sleep, otherwise they will have a pair of dark circles tomorrow?" ”

"Forehead ······" Li Ping suddenly felt that he had no way to refute it.
