Chapter 247: Change of opinion on Ye Chen

(Recommended reading: General Ye, since you can do it in Liaodong, why don't you do it in Luoyang? Cai Yong couldn't bear to see how many victims there were, but he didn't have much money.

"Lord Cai, do it in Luoyang? First, I was subjected to a lot of constraints in Luoyang, and now a large group of people are staring at me, I can't do it, and if I do, I will be attacked by them. Second, compared with other places, Luoyang has not been directly impacted by the yellow scarves, and the situation is much better. ”

Even if Ye Chen did it, he wouldn't do it in Luoyang, doing it was equivalent to doing it for nothing, and he didn't have any benefits except for a little fame.

"What, what could be worse than that?" Cai Yan said in surprise.

"What is this, you think what I said about 'there are frozen bones on the road' is false. It's everywhere. Liaodong alone has accepted hundreds of thousands of victims, some of whom were accepted before the Yellow Turban Rebellion. If my Ye family is capable, I can't accept it ten times more. ”

"You don't know, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, in order to coerce more people, the Yellow Turbans robbed and burned all the way through, the food was gone, the homes were gone, and the people had to live and could only follow the Yellow Turbans, because then at least there would be food."

"Some are old and weak, they can't adapt, and many people who can't walk don't care, and in the end there are corpses on the side of the road."

Ye Chen said, Cai Yan listened in surprise, her mind seemed to be full of hunger, she lived in the house of the eunuch, although the family is not very rich, but she has always had no worries about food and clothing, and her life is stable, if Cai Yong didn't take her out of the city, she didn't know that the world was full of hungry people now.

Now that Ye Chen told her, there were more miserable things than this, how could she not be surprised.

Cai Yong took a deep breath, although he had seen a lot, many of them were also from books, and he really didn't have more research on this world.

"General Ye, you can accommodate hundreds of thousands of refugees in Liaodong, so can you do this elsewhere? Write out the detailed rules and report them to the imperial court in detail, so that the refugees of the entire Han Dynasty cannot be solved. ”

Ye Chen secretly called a nerd, what he can do is for the future, there are interests, even if there is no benefit, he can control it if he invests himself, and the court invests it, it is good to be able to give porridge to the victims.

"Lord Cai, the imperial court? The current court is full of moths, and it would be a mistake to really count on them. Many officials bought their officials, and if they really took over such a project, it would not be enough for them to eat. What's more, the emperor's family has money now, but the court doesn't have much money. ”

Cai Yong thought about the current imperial court, so he sighed in disappointment and shook his head.

"General Ye, no one else wants to do it, so why are you willing to invest so much money to do it?" Cai Yan tilted his little head and asked a little puzzled.

Of course, Ye Chen couldn't tell her that it was to build a base for hegemony in the future, Ye Chen could only pretend to be deep.

"Alas, at the beginning, it was the people around us who were affected by the disaster, many of them were tenants of our family, and my family, a century-old business family, I can't use up the money for a few lifetimes, so it's better to help them. Later, the strength of my family continued to grow, at this time the Wuhuan invasion in the north, my Ye family rose up to resist, and wiped out all the enemies, and many people spontaneously helped our Ye family fight against Wuhuan. ”

"So I felt obligated to help them, so I accepted hundreds of thousands of victims in Youzhou, and then many people defected to my Ye family one after another, especially after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there were more displaced people like a torrent, and many displaced people from Jizhou and Qingzhou went to my Ye family. They're traveling thousands of miles just to survive, so I can't leave it alone. ”

Cai Yan had a little star in his eyes as he listened, he used to be very disgusted with Ye Chen, because he was close to the eunuchs, and now he found that Ye Chen was at least much better than those sanctimonious things, at least there were so many big officials in the imperial court, and there were also a lot of rich businessmen in the entire Han Dynasty, but none of them stood up and did much for these people.

There are many scribes, celebrities and other loud appeals, but they have not done a single thing for the refugees, through a few days of practice, Cai Yan feels that it is much better to give them a bowl of porridge than to write ten articles to appeal, at least give them a bowl of porridge, they can live.

"General Ye, then, those victims are doing well in the Ye family in Liaodong." Cai Yan still had some hard time believing it, because she couldn't do anything about these hundreds of victims, and she made their family poor in a few days.

"Compared with many places in Dahan, they just need to work hard, have work, have food, are not afraid of the cold in winter, and do not have to wander around."

"Don't blame Ye Jiajun, the little girl is just more curious, but the old man is also very curious, and plans to see what kind of scene Liaodong is, I don't know if General Ye can welcome it."

Cai Yong suddenly had the idea of going to Liaodong to have a look, firstly, because what Ye Chen said was much better than other places, and secondly, if it was really like what Ye Chen said, how miserable Luoyang was, so what kind of scene was it like to be a side stopper, so Cai Yong planned to go out for a walk.

"Lord Cai, of course welcome, it's just that I am in an important position in Luoyang, although I don't have any official business, but I can't do without it, if there is a real opportunity, the younger generation will definitely take Lord Cai around."

Ye Chen was not polite or shirked, he had long wanted to leave Luoyang, but he couldn't shout every day, maybe Zhang Rang and the emperor should be suspicious when the time comes.

"General Ye doesn't have to be like this, the old man doesn't say that he can go, at least he can't do it in the short term, and if he wants to go, he will observe the past all the way, the old man really wants to see what the current Han is like."

Invisibly, Cai Yong's sense of Ye Chen has also improved a lot, at least he knows that although Ye Chen has taken refuge in Zhang Rang, he is not all the way with Zhang Rang, just like Ye Chen said, how much strength to do as many things, maybe he really did more things for the people at the beginning, and then he had to take refuge in Zhang Rang.

Regarding the changes made by the Cai family's father and daughter to Ye Chen, Ye Chen could only say that he was very surprised, and he never thought that one day, or before the chaos came, the family would be able to look at him differently.

Although He Jin and Yuan Kui released their goodwill through Yuan Shao, it was just that they had strength and compromised each other's interests, if one day their strength was not good, then He Jin and Yuan Kui would definitely step on it.

After the porridge, it was almost dark, Ye Chen sent them back, so as not to be able to enter the city gate, although it was not difficult for Cai Yong's reputation to enter, but it was not convenient for him.

After coming back, Ye Chen went to rest, there was really nothing to do, the military camp and business now only need to grasp the general direction by himself, and he didn't have to worry about anything else.
