Wu Jie was taken aback, and hurriedly waved his hand, "The lowly position is a soldier, and he is only good at leading troops to fight, and he has no experience in governing the place. ”

Li Yanqing knew that Wu Jie's history had passed through Sichuan and Shaanxi, and he governed Sichuan and Shaanxi in an orderly manner, and let him serve as the prefect of Jingzhao, he would definitely be competent, Li Yanqing persuaded him again, Wu Jie's just shook his head and refused, and finally Wu Jie's said: "The lowly position has self-knowledge, if you serve as the prefect, you will miss the major affairs of the capital, it is better to recommend a person from the humble position, and the capital can be considered." ”

Li Yanqing saw that he resolutely refused to agree, and it was not easy to be reluctant, so he smiled and said, "I don't know who General Wu recommends?" ”

"Humble recommended Chengdu Prefecture transfer judge Zhao Kai, last year he transported money and grain to support the Northwest Third Road, humble and he contacted, this person has clear thinking, brilliant opinions, even a kind of handsome praise him is very good at financial management, is an extremely rare talent, if he can enter Shaanxi as an official, will definitely become the right-hand man of the capital."

Li Yanqing heard that Zhao Kai implemented a new policy for salt tea in Sichuan, although it greatly improved the income of the government, but he repeatedly offended the powerful and was deposed, Li Yanqing asked: "He is still in Chengdu Mansion?" ”

Wu Jie shook his head, "He was dismissed at the beginning of the year, and now Hanzhong is serving as the county lieutenant of Xixian County, and he is in a very depressed mood. ”

Li Yanqing nodded, Hanzhong also belongs to the jurisdiction of Shaanxi Road, this is very easy to do, just transfer him to Jingzhao, if he can handle refugee affairs effectively, he can be reused, he immediately asked people to rush to Hanzhong with a golden urgent order, and quickly transferred Zhao Kai to Jingzhao.

Wu Jie said goodbye and left, Li Yanqing immediately wrote a letter to Zhao Gou, the Son of Heaven, suggesting that Zhang Jun be transferred as the defense envoy of Hedong to preside over the recovery of Hedong, and that Wu Jie be appointed as the defense envoy of northern Shaanxi, and that Liu Tao be appointed as the pacification envoy of Hexihe Road to restore the livelihood and defense of Xihe Road, and that Li Guang, the prefect of Shaoxing, be transferred to Jingzhao Prefect.

When Li Yanqing was in Taiyuan, Li Guang served as the general judge of Taiyuan, and his talents were outstanding, especially good at coordinating and dealing with thorny civil unrest, which left a deep impression on Li Yanqing, and since Wu Jie refused to serve as the prefect of Jingzhao, Li Yanqing decided to nominate Li Guanglai to take over the post of prefect of Jingzhao.

.........

Three days later, Zhao Kai came from Hanzhong to report to Jingzhao Mansion, and Li Yanqing immediately appointed him as a staff member of Jingluo Mansion, with full responsibility for the resettlement of Song slaves in Western Xia.

This time, Li Yanqing brought back from Western Xia more than 340,000 Song slaves who had been taken captive from the north, including 230,000 mine slaves and their families, as well as 40,000 Song slaves in Lingzhou City and more than 70,000 Song slaves from various tribes in Xiping Prefecture.

On the morning of that day, Li Yanqing, escorted by hundreds of personal soldiers, went to the first battalion of Gaoling County, which was the largest temporary resettlement camp for the Song people in the south, with a population of 150,000, 40,000 tents in sight, and 5,000 troops responsible for maintaining order.

When Li Yanqing came to the gate of the camp, he saw several large rows of long tables set up in front of the camp, dozens of officials and students were busy registering, and several teams outside were at least three miles long.

Li Yanqing frowned slightly, it stands to reason that this kind of registration should have ended a long time ago, why is it still doing it now? He was slightly dissatisfied.

Li Yanqing waved his hand to prevent the soldiers from alarming the registration officer, and he walked over alone and stood behind a table to observe the situation.

"Which county is my husband from?" The person sitting at the table seemed to be a student, he didn't know Li Yanqing behind him, and he was still engrossed in asking an old man in front of the line.

"In my later life, I am a native of Suide County, and I was taken captive to Western Xia as a salt slave in the second year of Zhenghe."

"Is the old man going to return to his hometown, or will he be resettled by the government?"

The old man sighed, "There are no relatives in my hometown, my son and I have been brought back, and we don't want to go back to our hometown, so let's settle it by the government!" It is okay to stay in the same state and Yaozhou. ”

"How many people are in my father-in-law's family now? Are there any plans to split up? ”

"I have a wife, a son, a daughter-in-law and a grandson at home, a total of five people, and I have no plans to separate at present."

"Which mutual insurance group do you want to join?" There is no idea. ”

"No, just give us a piece of land to farm and make a living."

"Uncle, there are currently three hundred and thirty mutual aid groups in Yaozhou, or I will join you in the eighty-first mutual aid group, you go back and pack your things, and soon there will be soldiers to lead you over."

"Thank you!"

The old man handed back a bamboo card, on which was the big account number he currently lives in, and the student registered the number in the book, and shouted: "Next!" ”

Li Yanqing was a little curious, so he sat down and took the bamboo plaque and looked at it, and asked with a smile: "Haven't you already registered?" Why do you still need to register. ”

The student smiled bitterly and said: "It was Zhao Guanren's request, he set up a mutual aid and protection group with 20 households, and a total of 3,500 mutual aid and protection groups were established, and each family of the mutual aid and protection group will live together in the future, build houses and cultivate fields together in the future, so as to reduce the burden on the local government." ”

Li Yanqing nodded secretly, and asked again: "Could it be that you have designated to join the mutual aid protection group, and the people have no choice?" ”

"Nope! No, the old man just now has a special situation, generally more than a dozen families come to register together, willing to form a group, and the insufficient part is designated by us, and each group tries to arrange the elderly, weak, lonely and widowed, so that he can get help from other families. ”

"Is this plan resisted by the people?"

The student hurriedly shook his head, "It's not contradictory at all, and it's very popular, I didn't think about it so carefully before, and many things are not very reasonable, I heard that Zhao Guanren came up with this plan after visiting hundreds of households, and we also think it's good." ”

At this time, Zhao Kai hurriedly ran to this side with a group of officials, and he had already received the news that the envoy had come to inspect, so he hurried to meet him.

Several students stood up in fright, but Li Yanqing sat still with a smile, and the students next to him hurriedly pulled him, "Zhao Guanren is here, get up quickly!" ”

"It's okay, he's looking for me."

"You?" The student looked at Li Yanqing suspiciously, scratched his head again, and asked confusedly, "Who are you?" ”

At this time, Zhao Kai and a group of officials stepped forward and bowed, "See the envoy for your humble duties!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding students and people were in an uproar, and the students standing next to Li Yanqing were even more stunned, and a cold sweat broke out on their backs.

Li Yanqing pulled him up and said with a smile: "What's your name, where are you from?" ”

"The villain's name is Zhou Li, a native of Xianyang County, Jingzhao Prefecture, and the villain didn't know ....... just now."

"That's okay, you can continue to register! I won't bother you. ”

Li Yanqing stood up and said to Zhao Kai and the officials: "I'll come to inspect the camp, you try not to alarm the people, I'll just walk around." ”

"I understand, please let me go this way."

Li Yanqing smiled and patted the student's shoulder, "There is a release test in November, and the scope is the same as the year before, so use the break time to prepare well!" ”

The student was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly got up and said, "The villain understands, thank you." ”

Li Yanqing smiled, and then followed Zhao Kai into the camp.

........

Zhao Kai was about 40 years old, very thin, a native of Anju County, Puzhou, and the third year of Yuan Fu, he strongly advocated financial reform, and changed the unreasonable system of the monopoly law of the Great Song Dynasty such as salt, iron, tea, and wine, which harmed the public and harmed the people, and was hated by the powerful and repeatedly deposed.

At the beginning of the year, he was demoted from the Chengdu Prefecture transfer judge to the county lieutenant of Xixian County, which made him a little disheartened, but he didn't expect that when he was at the lowest point in his life, he was suddenly favored by Li Yanqing and transferred him to Jingzhao.

Not only do the returnees have a sense of belonging to the team, but the local government has also greatly reduced the pressure, which is conducive to the resettlement of the returnees as soon as possible and their integration into the new living environment as soon as possible.

Although the big tent is noisy, the big tent is very neatly built, and there is quite a distance between the tents, which seems very orderly, which is compared with their big camp in Baitong Village, it is simply a day and a place, and each big tent has at least one point of land, that is, fifty or sixty square meters, and it is spacious enough for a family to live in a big tent.

"This is a complete resettlement plan written by the humble post, please take a look at it!"

Zhao Kai submitted a report to Li Yanqing, "This is written last night, I wanted to send someone to Jingzhao today, but I didn't expect the envoy to come in person, just to give the envoy a look." ”

Li Yanqing took the paper and asked with a smile: "I didn't seem to see a lot of people in line just now, is it that everyone is not ready for the mutual aid group?" ”

"I don't know that the camp will be divided into six districts, and everyone will take turns to register, and yesterday we started to register in the first district, and it is estimated that the registration will be completed tomorrow, and after the registration is over, the people in the first district will be sent out, and then the second district will be registered, so that the local government can also be resettled calmly."

At this time, Li Yanqing heard that there seemed to be someone arguing in a big tent next to him, so he smiled and said, "Let's go and join in the fun!" ”
