Chapter 116: The World of Those Who Win the Hearts of the People
Memories are a magical thing, sometimes memories can boost feelings, sometimes memories can boost confidence, sometimes memories can make people linger, etc.
Of course, there are many benefits of memories, but when a person is always stuck in memories, it means that he is old.
At this time, Heituo kept recalling, not that he was old, but only that he missed his past life in this place.
"You're right, the incompetence of the rulers of a country, and the cowardice of the officials, have made you people in Longchuan suffer." Yingqi said.
Yingqi's words made Heituo sigh very emotionally, even outsiders said that the rulers of their own country were incompetent, and it seemed that the rulers of the scattered country were really incompetent, "One general is incompetent and exhausts the three armies, and the incompetence of the monarch harms the people!" ”
Subsequently, Yingqi asked Heituo: "Since the scattered countries have given up here, why don't you move away?" Aren't you afraid that Rong Di will destroy your house? ”
Heituo took a sip of wine and said, "If you go back to your adult, it's not that I don't want to move away, it's just that I can't move away!" ”
Can't move away?
This is a bit incomprehensible, you must know that in the Western New Year, when the population is still very sparse, as long as it is an individual, all countries will compete for it.
There are also countries that do not want population, and they do not believe it.
Looking at Yingqi's disbelief, Hei Tuo told him his actual situation, and finally Hei Tuo said: "My lord, you don't know, those officials in our scattered country are really not people!" Don't say it's doing things for the people, as long as you don't harm the people, you will burn high incense. ”
"Why is that?" Zhao Zhou asked.
Heituo also talked about the situation of the officials of the scattered country who killed the people who moved south.
"Dog official, how can such a person become an official of the scattered country, what does your monarch eat? What kind of person is he? Zhao Boyu said fiercely.
"Our monarch? I, an ordinary person, have never even seen the face of a king, so how do I know what kind of person they are? As soon as Hei Tuo said this, Yingqi and the others were disappointed.
However, the words below the black lump made Yingqi regain his confidence.
"My lord, I have heard from my neighbors in the past that their immigrants paid much higher taxes than the local people." Heituo continued.
Yes?
And such a thing?
According to common sense, the people who migrated in the past had a shallow foundation and a weak foundation, so they should be exempted from taxes, so how could the scattered countries collect more taxes from them?
It is unheard of for the rulers of a country to be so harsh on their own people.
"Father, there is not much arable land on the south bank of Weishui in Sanguo, most of it is mountainous and pasture. They have migrated so many people from Longchuan to the past, and there are many people and few places, which will definitely cause a lot of trouble. "Ying Kai is right to Ying Qidao.
"You're right." So Yingqi asked Hei Tuo curiously: "What did so many of you people do when they migrated in the past?" ”
"What else can I do, most of them became slaves for the officials and nobles in the capital, and some went into the mountains to become hunters, and many people really couldn't survive, so they had to commit suicide by throwing themselves into the river." Heituo said.
Poor thing! Listening to it, Ying Qi and other Qin officials couldn't help but sigh for a long time.
"Heituo, you are the only one in such a big place, don't you worry about the enemy coming?" Ying Qi asked with concern.
"Of course I'm worried! Every year when Rong Di went south, I would run with my family into the mountains, and I would not dare to return home until the enemy left. Hei Tuo said helplessly.
Ying Qi thought for a while and asked, "As far as you know, how many people are left in Longchuan like you at the moment?" ”
Hei Tuo thought for a while and said, "At most, it's only one percent." ”
One percent or so, so much? Ying Kai originally thought that the entire land of Longchuan was a black family, but he didn't expect that there would be a hundred percent of the people.
Ying Kai secretly calculated to herself, "So there are still thousands of people here?" Why didn't I see it? ”
Heituo smiled when he heard this: "They all live in the surrounding mountains, and once someone comes in, they will run away a long time ago." How can you see it when you're new here? ”
Oh---, so that's it.
"Come on, come on, patronize and talk, the dishes are cold." Yingqi greeted Heituo and chatted while eating.
From Hei Tu's words, Ying Qi could hear that the few people left here had long been disappointed in the monarchs and ministers of the scattered country. Moreover, there are thousands of people in Longchuan at present, if these people are appeased well, it will be very beneficial for the Qin people to settle here in the future.
So Yingqi asked Hei Tuo: "Hei Tuo, if our Qin people are willing to send troops to protect you, are you welcome?" ”
The Qin people were willing to send troops to protect themselves? Are you kidding?
"The Qin people are so far away from us, how can they send troops to protect us?" Hei Tuo asked puzzledly, "Besides, how many soldiers and horses can the Qin people have?" Aren't you afraid of Rong Di?"
For people like Heituo, he doesn't care what kind of land Longchuan is, as long as someone is willing to send troops to protect himself and is willing to fight with Rong Di, I am someone's people.
This is not to say that Heituo does not have a sense of national or patriotic feelings, but the current dispersion of the country is too disappointing to the people. You are not willing to protect us, so why should we be your people?
At this time, Ying Kai spoke: "Although Brother Heituo can rest assured, we Qin people have lived in the west for a long time and often deal with Rong Di, so we are not afraid of them for a long time. Once the war starts, it's really hard to say who will lose and who won. ”
After listening to Yingkai's words, Heituo was happy, "Brother Yingkai, I'll tell you the truth, as long as you are willing to send troops to protect us, I will let the people living in Longchuan pay taxes to you." ”
Taxes?
Ying Kai laughed when he heard this, "Brother Heituo really dares to speak, if you pay taxes to us, then won't you become a Qin person?" ”
In fact, Ying Kai said this with bad intentions, to put it bluntly, it was to provoke the black lump.
Sure enough, as soon as Hei Tuo heard Yingkai say this, he immediately said, "Hmph---, Qin people are Qin people, I don't care which country I am from?" How many years have we lived here in solitude, and we have never seen any officials from the scattered countries come over. They have long forgotten about us, and they have long since forgotten whether we live or die. ”
Ying Kai knew that this honest Longchuan man had been tricked, so he said to him happily, "Since Brother Heituo thinks this is okay, then we will bring troops to protect you after a while." ”
"The sooner the better, when it comes to the autumn, Rong Di will commit a big attack in the south, that is the most difficult day for us, you have to come over as soon as possible!" Then, Heituo patted his chest and promised, "As long as you are willing to send troops to protect us." I will make sure that the people here will welcome you. ”
It's strange, he is eagerly looking forward to the Qin people to occupy his land, there is such a strange thing in the world.
It seems that what the people have won the hearts of the people is not wrong at all.
"Okay---, then we'll settle it." Ying Qi listened and said happily.
After the meal was full, the wine was sufficient, and the words that should be said were finished, Yingqi said to Yingkai: "Yingkai, you and Bo Yu will go together to send Heituo." ”
Accompanied by Yingkai and Zhao Boyu, Heituo, who had drunk some wine, was happy or something, talking and laughing all the way back home. Take a hundred plating and read the latest chapter of "Pre-Qin's Starry Sky Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
