Chapter 275: Natural Disaster

In the face of Ming Jian's statement, Wang Yun and others understood that the imperial court did not want them to go to Xuzhou, but wanted to stay in Chang'an City for retirement.

They are not fools and can understand Ming Jian's intentions. And they also knew that when Ming Jian said this, it was non-negotiable, and if they wanted to eat the imperial grain, they had to stay in Chang'an City.

"Your Majesty, the old ministers and others obey the order!"

The ministers agreed.

These old men soon really took action to build their own team, and the official position of Chang'an to accompany the capital is the same as that of Xuzhou, and it is also in accordance with the six-ministry system, and there is no prime minister.

That is, it is equivalent to more Shangshu, which can make the companion capital work.

Not to mention, the enthusiasm of these old men is really good, and they soon made the court operational, at least the daily court meeting is about to be held, discussing and discussing the development of Guanzhong, the people's living problems, and even military issues.

Ming Jian also went to sit for a while every day, and then he didn't go much, the old man's concept was really backward, and he couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the court.

After investigation, Ming Jian decided to re-establish Yongzhou, and included the entire Guanzhong region into the jurisdiction of Yongzhou, and appointed Lu Su as the assassin of Yongzhou.

......

When the season enters winter, it suddenly snows heavily on the Guanzhong Plain, and although the snowflakes are beautiful, they are not beautiful if they keep falling.

No one could have imagined that the heavy snowfall in winter would last for half a month, blocking roads and rivers, and people could not go out, and the Guanzhong area was considered to have suffered a catastrophe.

After the heavy snow stopped, officials from all over Guanzhong acted quickly, and as soon as the results were counted, the losses were heavy.

Most of the people's houses have been crushed, and many people have been displaced and homeless. Many people were frozen to death and frostbite, which is sad to watch.

Early in the morning of this day, Yongzhou Thorn Shi Lusu entered Weiyang Palace to report the disaster to Ming Jian.

After the ceremony, Lu Su said: "Your Majesty, now the number of refugees has exceeded 300,000, and the temporary shelter we have prepared is no longer enough, and the food is almost the same. ”

Lu Su's face was very serious, he had worked hard these days, fighting on the front line in person, and his mood was very heavy.

Ming Jian sighed: "I didn't expect this natural disaster to be so serious, and the people are suffering. Zijing, quickly set up the altar, I want to pray to the heavens, begging the heavens to give me food. ”

Lu Su was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Ming Jian to say this, and hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, the words of ghosts and gods are just ethereal things, how can you get food?" The minister advised His Majesty to be pragmatic, send a large army to open the way as soon as possible, and then get some food from nearby states and counties to deal with it. ”

Ming Jian smiled and said, "Zijing, doesn't you think I'm doing something perfunctory?" ”

"The minister doesn't dare, but this asking for food from the sky is really nothing." Lu Su said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Ming Jian smiled: "In this way, Zijing dares to make a bet with me?" ”

Lu Su said angrily: "If Your Majesty can ask for food, then the minister will lose his head to Your Majesty." ”

"Haha, Zijing is an honest man, I don't deceive you, if I want to come with food, Zijing will be a courtier for me for a lifetime, what do you think?" Ming Jian smiled.

Lu Su said: "The minister obeys the order, but if His Majesty doesn't want to come with food, then what? ”

Ming Jian smiled: "I will never lose, Zijing just wait and see, quickly build the altar, and I will pray to the heavens at noon tomorrow." ”

At noon the next day, on the bank of the Weishui River outside Chang'an City, Ming Jian climbed a three-meter-high platform.

Around the platform, it was already full of civil and military ministers and ordinary people, and a team of soldiers was also maintaining order.

Ming Jian held a long sword and began to chant words, but soon, he threw his consciousness into the system farm.

In the warehouse here, there are millions of stone of grain, although it has been used many times before, but in fact, it is only a drop in the bucket.

The crop maturity cycle of the system farm is ten times that of the actual crop, and at the end of the year, I don't know how much food will be produced.

After a while, Ming Jian's figure suddenly flashed, and the long sword shot violently into the sky, and then, a large pile of grain suddenly fell from the sky and landed in the open space in front of the high platform!

"Hooray! Banzai! Banzai! ”

Everyone suddenly roared excitedly, Ming Jian's move was simply magical, and he did what he said.

Lu Su even muttered to himself: "Your Majesty is really a god descending from heaven, a god descending from heaven, surrendered, surrendered!" ”

After the sword dance of the Ming Sword, the high platform was already full of grain, and as far as the eye could see, there were already 500,000 stones.

Ming Jian slowly rushed down from the high platform, and everyone knelt down.

"Let's all settle down, Zijing, quickly return the grain to the warehouse, and then open a porridge shop to help the victims. And immediately send troops to open up the road, within ten days, let the grain of Silizhou and Xuzhou come to Yongzhou! ”

Ming Jian said loudly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

At this time, the system prompted: "The host charm value has exceeded 10 million, and the system will be upgraded from now on, and the specific time is to be determined." ”

At this time, the system was upgraded, and it seems that the system will not be able to be used for a while.

"If I had known this, I should have gotten more food and stuff out."

Ming Jian couldn't help but feel a little depressed, now only the tank was parked outside Weiyang Palace, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex was put into the system.

After this upgrade, the system should be more powerful, and it will be more capable of sling enemies when the time comes.

......

Ming Jian's move to ask for food from heaven soon spread throughout Yongzhou, his image became taller, and the cohesion of the court became stronger.

Since ancient times, emperors have been mythologized, and the Ming Sword's move has made the image of the emperor much higher. Whoever wants to oppose it now, it is estimated that it will be difficult for anyone to follow.

The porridge shops in various counties and counties were also quickly set up, and these porridge shops were also strictly in accordance with the standards of the imperial court, and the porridge should be able to stand up with chopsticks.

The effect is obvious, and the victims are well fed.

The victims returned to their hometowns, and after they had enough to eat, they began to rebuild their homes. At this time, Ming Jian invented sleds and skateboards, which were made and distributed. With the help of these two things, it is much more convenient to transport supplies.

In response to the destructive power caused by this snow disaster, Ming Jian ordered that the rebuilt houses must be more reliable, with more beams and pillars.

After the road was opened, more food and materials were transported from Sili Prefecture and Xuzhou, and they were quickly distributed, which made the situation in Yongzhou quickly improve.

After three months, the recovery situation in various places is good, more than half of the houses have been restored, and the hearts of the victims have been completely stabilized.

The imperial court was very efficient in the process of disaster relief, and took into account the survival of the people, and behaved quite humanely, and the heritage of the Han Dynasty was also reflected at this time, and the grain stored in the imperial treasury was enough to deal with the disaster of a state, which was unlikely in the past.

Ming Jian also has a basic understanding, the current Han, although it has only been a few years, has already recovered to the strength of the original Wenjing Zhizhi period. With the continuous increase of population, the economic strength of the Han will be stronger, and the development of the next few years, Ming Jian is also very confident that once Yizhou and Jiaozhou are defeated, then the Han will have the ability to reach the economic strength of the Great Song Dynasty.

However, because of this snow disaster, the pace of expansion of Ming Jian has also been suspended. There is not much food in the treasury left, and it is not enough to support a two-front operation.

Yizhou's side was still approaching step by step, forcing Liu Zhang to admit it, and Jiaozhou's side suspended the attack and let Cao Cao lead his troops back to Xuzhou.

When the money and grain in the treasury are enough to support it next year, Ming Jian will clean up the state again.

In March, the good news from Yizhou finally came.
