The situation in the city is not optimistic.

It was only on the fourth day of the siege of the rebels, and Lao Pei couldn't resist avoiding suspicion.

Cai You, who couldn't sit still, went to the county government to see Zhao Cheng as a private person, and got straight to the point, "The refugees who were put into the city by you in violation of regulations are now counted as more than 11,000 people. In addition to the miasma of excrement and urine everywhere, there are more and more incidents of robbery and theft, and there is a trend of becoming more and more serious. You know, there is a reason why the imperial court prohibits refugees from entering the city at special times, but once it continues and cannot be controlled, chaos is just around the corner. Without him Wang Xiu attacking the city, the city will have to kill and trample on each other! ”

Lao Cai now in addition to writing things that worry about the country and the people all day long, he also looks good, and he looks a little older than the previous spring breeze, but he is more saintly.

On the other hand, Zhao Cheng in the winter looked more obscene than usual in addition to being quiet, unable to maintain the Wolong style of the lupine scarf, and wrapped like a hairy bear and inseparable from the brazier.

"Why don't you respond to the state, or are you really selectively not aware of these things?" Cai You asked.

Zhao Cheng really didn't know selectively, because he couldn't say it.

Hesitating Shaoqing, he nodded slightly, "Xiaguan knows the situation, in fact, any current situation will be fed back to you as well as Xiaguan." ”

"So how do you explain that? The state is receiving more and more complaints, and they are all close to being forced together. I don't care about military issues, I'll give it to you, but this is a matter of people's livelihood. ”

Cai You deliberately paid attention to it, and didn't dare to speak too seriously, otherwise if this guy made a fuss now, everyone would cry blindly. In fact, there are more than 100,000 people in Chizhou City now, and only he, Zhao Cheng, has confidence and thinks that he can hold it.

Zhao Cheng said, "To be honest, my Zhumen's wine and meat may stink, but it is mostly certain." I did say that I could control the refugees before letting them in. But in good conscience, people have to eat, and in this cold season, the livelihood and home of the refugees are not in the city. In this case, they are hungry, so that their dolls can survive the wax moon and see spring, and go to get some food, how can it be regarded as stealing, how can it be considered robbery? ”

"You ......"

Cai You is a witty traitor who feels that his theory is thought-provoking. Whether you agree or not, Cai You is really one of the few people in the dynasty who can understand and feel some truth.

"Zhizhou Xianggong, conscience, no matter how great my Zhao Cheng's prestige is, no matter how many people believe it, I can't let them stop eating." Zhao Cheng emphasized it again.

Cai Yu stomped his feet anxiously, "I understand, I understand, what you say makes sense, and I understand everything." The problem is that you have already had a bad record before, and you bought other people's cloth at a cheap price, and now the so-called theft problem in their mouth occurs dozens of times a day, and everyone is in danger. Those local tyrants are not afraid of refugees but are afraid of you, you know that they are afraid that you will buy food like 'buying' cloth. At such a season, everyone knows how important food is, and if it continues, there will inevitably be stampede and civil strife in the city, and Wang Xiu is waiting for this situation when he suddenly stops attacking the city. ”

"Not a wish."

Zhao Cheng shook his head decisively, "He, Wang Xiu, just wait for this." ”

Cai You continued to stomp his feet, "So you need to show an attitude now, what will you do next?" ”

Zhao Cheng said, "What I will do is obviously not the point, the point is to have food, and I will do what I can do if I have food." ”

"You ......"

Cai You jumped up, "Speaking of which, you're just going to grab it, right?" ”

Zhao Cheng threw the ball to him instead, "It's okay if you don't grab it, then adults will take the lead in doing their work." I sing red-faced, sharpening knives scary. You go and do good people to persuade them, and then hit the government at a suitable price and let them release the grain. It's good for everyone to help me fight this fight. To put it bluntly, everyone knows what Wang Xiu will do after entering the city, are the worst people really those low-level people? Not necessarily, of course they will be killed and injured, but Wang Xiu's first target must be those local tyrants with big families, there is no doubt about it. ”

Cai You was anxious, and his cheeks twitched slightly, "Boy, what you said is easy, but if you don't have enough money, you can't balance it, so Benzhou will be a bad guy." If you give one more job, even if you win the war, the government will owe at least 200,000 debts. You have borrowed Lao Chen's money, do you think they owe their money? How is it still a problem. Under the mistake that you have already made the mistake of letting refugees into the city in violation of the law, how can you explain this bad debt to the imperial court, and in the end, you will still go to the state? ”

Zhao Cheng said with a strange expression: "I heard that the adult has been writing a 'diary' in the past few days?" ”

Cai You couldn't help but blush slightly, thinking that it must have been Cai Wenji's dead girl who said that she hadn't married yet, and she had already followed someone else's surname in advance, and her arm was out.

"What do you want to say?" Cai You was a little wary.

"In this way, Xia Guan will help you come up with an idea again."

Zhao Cheng suddenly had a trick in his heart, "The current situation in Chizhou, from your standpoint, you need to make a judgment: within three months, the Jiangnan East Road area will be filled with the imperial army." As a minister who worries about the country and the people, even if the rebels have besieged the city and it is not a pity to die, you still need to pave the way for the imperial court to calm down the chaos in a few months. ”

At this point, Cai You's mind moved.

Zhao Cheng continued, "So the army did not arrive before the grain and grass were prepared. You led the local tyrants to 'forcibly buy' grain this time, don't use my Zhao Cheng's reputation for fighting, and use 'the materials that must be prepared for the royal division who is approaching spring'. ”

Khan, Cai You thought it was a clever plan when he heard it. If you have this reason, you dare to eat ugly.

In the end, Zhao Cheng said, "Of course, you can't directly 'diary' like this, but how to hide and implant the above information in your book "The Days of the Siege of the Rebels", so as to finally be known by the imperial court, of course, these technical jobs do not need to be taught by students, Cai Wenji said that the only thing you can do is this." ”

Cai You was embarrassed, angry and happy, and finally had to snort with a very complicated face, and flicked his sleeves out. Thinking about it, I'm embarrassed to smoke Xiao Zhao, so I have to smoke that dead girl......

The days of poverty are almost the same.

People who are at the bottom but have not gone up the mountain are relatively easy to speak. In peacetime, they kept running around for a living, and now it's about the same, as long as the food comes down, they can accept it if they have something to eat at this time.

What's more, they believe that Zhao Cheng also listened to Zhao Cheng's words, and now, many people are thinking that Zhao Cheng can end the war as scheduled, and then catch up with the spring ploughing.

Spring is actually not a good season, but watching the young seedlings shiver in the wind without the bloodshed of fighting and killing is actually the beauty of the earth in the eyes of these people. At least that's what the little girl Po thinks.

As for the days of wealth and nobility, it seems to be very complicated, and there are always gains and losses.

This kind of person doesn't like to lose and just wants to win, and he was originally expected to be able to sell 400,000 yuan of grain, but now he sells it to Cai You with a white strip of only 200,000 yuan with the army's military resources, even if it is still profitable, they feel that they have lost.

Therefore, Zhao Cheng also has to admit that there is no distinction between high and low work, Cai You has the pressure of Cai You, and these jobs really belong to him. Zhao Cheng can't be completed if he goes to change him, people who have no family background and no foundation, that kind of local tyrant is generally not a bird. So Zhao Cheng would only have two simple options: "starve to death and kill them to divide the food".

To put it simply, Cai Youna called reform, changing the profit and distribution model of these capitals. Zhao Cheng's option is called shuffle or revolution.

There is no superiority in strategy, but only differences in values and means.

As for the technicality and difficulty, of course, it is much bigger than Cai You, and ordinary people really can't complete it. Why?

Because to put it more simply, reform is to cut one's own flesh to others, and revolution is to cut others with a knife.

It is certainly easier to cut others than to cut yourself. The fact that more people have been killed than committed suicide in the world is ironclad evidence of big data.

In any case, seeing that truckloads of grain are being pulled out of the mansions of the local tyrants and distributed in the refugee ghettos, the situation is not very good, but it can be regarded as further stable.

From 70 or 80 incidents of stealing and even snatching food every day, it has now dropped to less than 10 per day. Zhao Cheng thinks that the control is not bad.

The bad thing is that Cai You has become a street rat in the elite class, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a shame. It is rumored that Lao Cai followed Xiao Zhao to learn badly.

Hearing these rumors, Cai You almost died of anger.

In the dictionary of Lord Zhizhou, there is no entry that needs to please the people. Cai You has always believed that being an official for one term can be regarded as the best not to offend the local tyrants and the court, and not to be scolded by the people.

It's a pity that Zhao Cheng's theory is that when you encounter something, you can never please everyone, you must choose. This time, because of Zhang Shangying's blind actions, it caused an almost uncontrollable situation, which made Cai You stand on the opposite side of the elite class, but he couldn't draw a clear line with Zhao Cheng......
