Chapter 1186: Senior Brother Gu Yong
In a day, the chaotic and noisy situation gradually returned to calm. (_)
The battlefields inside and outside the city have been cleaned.
At the same time, Wang Can sent soldiers outside the city to convey the order, and all the people knew that Wang Can was going to prepare food and money for the people to return home. After this news came out, hundreds of thousands of people in the camp outside the city clapped their hands and celebrated, praising the King of Shu Shengming, praising the King of Shu as a sage and a wise man, comparable to Yao Shun, and simply lifting Wang Can to the sky.
However, due to the lack of money, the people could only stay in the city for the time being, waiting for Wang Can to raise the money.
……
In the city of Wu County, outside the Shu military camp.
A group of people stood at the gate of the camp, waiting. Among this group of people, the person at the front was Wang Can, Dian Wei, Xu Shu and Lu Meng stood beside him, behind him were a group of soldiers, and the rest of the generals and civilian officials did not follow.
Dian Wei said in a low voice: "Lord, you are the king of Shu, but you personally greeted Gu Yong, and you attach too much importance to him." ”
Lu Meng said: "Uncle Dian, the teacher will meet with the principals of the Gu family, the Lu family, the Zhu family and the Zhang family in a row. Gu Yong, as the first to visit the teacher, is not only the teacher's senior brother, but also the head of the Gu family, so naturally he wants to be a corporal of Lixian, and he also wants to show the rest of the family, so that they can understand the teacher's thoughts. Except for Gu Yong, the principals of the rest of the family definitely did not have this treatment. ”
When Wang Can heard this, he bowed slightly, and his face showed a satisfied expression.
Dian Wei scratched his head and said impatiently: "It's really troublesome to make it so complicated." ”
Xu Shu smiled and did not speak.
It wasn't long before a horse-drawn carriage came from outside the camp. This carriage is the carriage of the Gu family, Gu Yong sat in the carriage, thinking about how to meet Wang Can. Although Wang Can has the same friendship with him, Wang Can is the lord of Shu and has a noble status, but Gu Yong is an old minister of the Sun family, so he naturally has to think about how to deal with it.
"Master, the King of Shu is waiting for you outside the camp."
Just as Gu Yong was pondering carefully, the voice of the groom came.
Gu Yong hurriedly said, "Stop, I'll walk over." ”
Wang Can personally led people to greet him, giving Gu Yong enough face. If Gu Yong asked the groom to stop in front of Wang Can and let Wang Can take him off the carriage, it was obviously because of his identity, so Gu Yong asked the groom to stop immediately. After the carriage stopped, Gu Yong lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage, and after standing still, he looked up at Wang Can and continued to walk forward.
Previously, Gu Yong had not seen Wang Can, but he had only heard his name and knew that Wang Can was Cai Yong's disciple.
Seeing Wang Can walking towards him, Gu Yong's heart was much more stable.
He hurriedly quickened his pace and strode towards Wang Can. When the distance between the two was only about one zhang, Gu Yong bowed first and said, "Gu Yong of Wu County, meet the King of Shu." ”
Gu Yong used the identity of the Gu family, not the former minister of the Sun family.
In this way, the relationship has eased a lot.
Wang Can didn't stop Gu Yong from saluting, and after Gu Yong saluted, he stretched out his hand to help Gu Yong up, and said enthusiastically: "Senior brother, you and I are both disciples of the teacher, why bother to see the outside like this, please inside." ”
Wang Can waved his hand and motioned for Gu Yong to go first.
Gu Yong dared to walk in front, and arched his hand: "King Shu, please!" ”
The two walked one after the other towards the camp.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Wang Can and Gu Yongbin sat down, Wang Can said: "Senior brother, my brother is looking for my senior brother today, and the reason is that my senior brother has already understood, so I said it straight to the point." Hundreds of thousands of people outside the city are homeless and in urgent need of resettlement, but there is no money in the treasury, which makes my brother feel uneasy, so I ask my brother to help. ”
Gu Yong sat up straight and said, "How much money do you need to support, please make it clear to the King of Shu." ”
Wang Can said: "The people outside the city have been counted, there are more than 102,800 households in total, and at least 500,000 yuan of money is needed to settle the people outside the city. The need is very great, and I hope that the senior brother will support it. ”
Gu Yong looked at Wang Can with a complicated expression, and his heart ached.
500,000 guan, that's not a small amount!
Even if the Gu family is a famous family, it is very difficult to gather 50,000 yuan at one time. Gu Yong thought about it carefully and said, "King Shu, although the Gu family has a big business, it also supports countless people. The treasury has no money, the people need to be resettled, and the Gu family is duty-bound, but they can only support the King of Shu with 50,000 yuan of money, please forgive the King of Shu. ”
"Fifty thousand?"
Wang Can pondered carefully, there are countless wealthy gentry families in Wu County, and there are at least twenty or thirty big families. With the Gu family taking the lead in providing 50,000 guan, it is enough to make up 500,000 guan.
After thinking about it clearly, Wang Can smiled and said: "Senior brother is benevolent, and my brother thanks senior brother for the people outside the city." ”
Gu Yong repeatedly excused himself, saying that this was a matter of course.
In fact, Gu Yong couldn't refuse Wang Can, after all, now Wang Can had defeated Wu State. If Wang Can's strength is weak, of course Gu Yong has to do his best to fight for the interests of the family, but Wang Can is a dragon crossing the river, with Jingzhou and Yizhou behind him, such a strong force is far from being something that the Gu family and other big families can contend with, so they can only obey Wang Can.
After solving the business, Gu Yong's topic turned to Cai Yong and asked, "King Shu, the teacher is nearly seventy years old, and he is almost in his prime, how is his health?" ”
Wang Can nodded and said, "The teacher is now teasing Sun and editing history books, which is very leisurely." ”
The two talked about Cai Yong, and the atmosphere was very good.
In the end, Wang Can personally sent Gu Yong away before returning to the Chinese army's tent. Solving the Gu family is a good start for collecting money, and the Gu family's fall to Wang Can will also cause a trend, providing an opportunity for the next solution to the Lu family, the Zhang family and the Zhu family. Just as Wang Can was thinking about the situation of the Lu family, Shi A hurriedly walked in.
"Lord, I have found Sun Jing's whereabouts."
Shi A Chao Wang Can saluted, and said with a solemn expression.
Wang Can asked, "Say it!" ”
Shi A said worriedly: "Half a month ago, Sun Jing transferred all the money in the treasury, and also took away some grain from the granary, and at the same time took away the people of the Sun family. ”
"Gone? Where did Sun Jing go? Wang Can immediately asked.
Shi A said: "Sun Jing took the Sun clan to the east, and finally boarded the ship and went to sea, and I don't know where to go. ”
Wang Can frowned, but he didn't expect Sun Quan to keep a hand.
This move caught Wang Can off guard.
Shi A continued: "My lord, the remnants of the Sun clan are still alive, should you immediately send troops to pursue them?" Let Gandu send a navy to the sea by boat to find out the news of Sun Jing and destroy the remnants of the Sun clan. ”
Wang Can shook his head and said: "Don't use it for the time being, you must first settle down inside, first solve Cao Cao in the north, and then solve Sun Jing is not too late." In this way, you assign a part of the people in the Hero Building, and let them be responsible for investigating Sun Jing's affairs, and when you find out where Sun Jing went, and find out where you are based? Let's consider Sun Jing's matter again. ”
"No!"
With Wang Can's order, Shi A has one more thing.
Wang Can waved his hand, and Shi A turned to leave. Wang Can was the only one left in the big tent, carefully considering how to deal with the affairs of the other major families.
The next day, Wang Can summoned Lu Jun, the head of the Lu family.
Lu Jun is Lu Kang's eldest son.
Because the news of Lu Xun's appointment as the Taishou of Lujiang has come out, the Lu family is tied to the warship of Shu State, and Wang Can is both prosperous and lossy, so naturally he will not refuse Wang Can. Lu Jun visited Wang Can, and without waiting for Wang Can to make a request, he simply offered 50,000 yuan of money to support Wang Can in rescuing the people.
Obviously, Lu Jun got specific information from Gu Yong.
Such a result is what Wang Can is happy to see, and he easily solved 100,000 yuan of money.
Next, there is Zhu Huan. Wang Can did not meet Zhu Huan at first, but first met with the head of the Zhu family, saying that he wanted to reuse Zhu Huan, but he was worried that Zhu Huan would not return to obedience, which was the sweetness that Wang Can gave to the Zhu family.
It is equivalent to reusing Zhu Huan in exchange for the support of the Zhu family.
When the head of the Zhu family heard Wang Can's words, he was overjoyed. As long as Zhu Huan is reused by Wang Can, the Zhu family will naturally be able to gain a firm foothold in Shu without being impacted. The head of the Zhu family patted his chest and said that he could persuade Zhu Huan, and he was also willing to fund 50,000 yuan. With the persuasion of the head of the Zhu family, Zhu Huan was persuaded and submitted to Wang Can.
The last thing Wang Can met was the Zhang family's advocate Yun.
Zhang Yun is a person who values wealth and righteousness, deeply feels the suffering of the people, and has long had the idea of subsidizing the people. Hearing that Wang Can wanted to raise money to resettle the people of Wu County, he did not hesitate to fund Wang Can with 50,000 yuan.
With the support of the four families of Wu County, most of the matter was completed.
Next, Wang Can gathered all the rest of the gentry in the county town and met them together. The people of these families all learned about the situation of the four major families of Gu, Lu, Zhu, and Zhang, and understood that it was impossible not to donate money. The major families have as little as 10,000 guan, and as many as 350,000 guan, and they can easily get together 500,000 guan.
With money, it is naturally easy to get things done.
Wang Can asked Xu Shu to preside over the dismissal of the people, and ensured that each family would get five yuan to return to their hometowns. In three days, the hundreds of thousands of people in the camp were all dismissed.
At this point, Wang Can has dealt with the affairs of Wu County and solved the mess left by Sun Quan.
On this day, Shi A quickly ran towards the big tent of the Chinese army.
Shi A's face was pale, and there was a look of horror in his eyes.
With Shi A's mind, even if Cao Cao led the army to attack, he would only show a hurried and panicked look, and he would not be frightened. If this is the case, something big must have happened.
