After lunch, Qin Feng, Liu Renliang, Ma Zhou, and Du He were handling various documents in the front yard of the Governor's Mansion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThis has become the governor's office, and there are many cases, documents and materials in the hall. At this moment, there are not only a few people in the Governor's Mansion, in addition to a few of them, there are also ten talents carefully selected from the Hanmen scholars, they are in the assessment period, once they pass the assessment of several giants, they can serve at the grassroots level under the rule of the Shuofang Governor's Mansion.

Due to the large number of people returning to the south, and most of Qin Feng and others are not familiar with local affairs, and there is a shortage of manpower, the people returning to the south are now concentrated in one place, and they have not been given specific land, at this moment, they are mainly responsible for the resettlement of the people returning to the south.

Among these ten people, there is a man named Gao Pei who is a relatively outstanding figure, he is knowledgeable, flexible and not pedantic, and has won the recognition of Qin, Liu, Ma, Du and others.

Gao Pei is about thirty years, is a person in the south of the Yangtze River, he was originally in a county in the south of the Yangtze River as his county leader, but after reading Qin Feng's "Biansai Poetry Collection", he was full of romantic feelings and resolutely resigned from the county leader, and after running to Shuofang, he abandoned his pen and joined the army.

It's a pity that he is a weak scholar who doesn't know how to kill the enemy, so he keeps the army out.

However, he has the stubbornness of a scholar and the temperament of not giving up until he reaches his goal.

For the first time, the army politely returned him; thought that he would give up if he hit a wall, but who would have thought that on the second, third, fourth, and fifth days, he would be at the gate of the barracks early in the morning.

In the end, Qin Feng was alarmed.

In order to reduce the trouble, Qin Feng brought this angry and lovely scholar back to the Governor's Mansion. Qin Feng said it well, it was poetry and calligraphy, and it was reasoning, it took more than an hour, and he was finally convinced, Gao Pei changed his mind, since we are not the material for the army, let's always change to be a student, right?

So, it stuck to Qin Feng's body again, and he had to worship under Qin Feng's door to learn poetry and calligraphy. Qin Feng couldn't wait to give him a few big feet, but his attitude towards learning was very sincere, and he had the spirit of Kong Yingda's apprenticeship. Qin Feng was not only moved by his quest for knowledge, but also a little afraid of this stubborn donkey, in desperation, Qin Feng made an agreement with him that as long as he met his requirements, he would accept him as an apprentice.

In this way, Gao Pei became an official in the Governor's Mansion in a daze.

Other people are also talented but have no opportunities, and after getting the opportunity, they cherish it and work harder.

"Lord Governor, the lower officials feel that the previous method of mixing the people returning from the south with the local people is a bit inappropriate." Gao Pei picked up a placement diagram at this time and said.

"Oh? What do you think? Ma Zhou's face changed slightly, because this placement method came from his hand.

Gao Pei patiently explained: "The people returning to the south are evenly distributed to the surrounding counties, although after the resettlement work is dismantled, the pressure is not so great. But the people of the two places live together because they don't trust each other. The local people even think that these southbound people have occupied the water and land that originally belonged to them, and there are many contradictions. Fortunately, the eldest prince did not collect taxes in advance. The local people were not allowed to serve in forced labor. Otherwise, I am afraid that it will already cause a civil uprising. ”

"Oh? So according to the will of the high lord, how should it be placed? Ma Zhou's expression was a little dark, but he still asked a little "aggressively".

Gao Pei said eloquently: "According to the lower officials, it is originally possible to mix the people of the two places to live. However, instead of setting up new villages for the returnees, they should be resettled on a household basis. The lower officials thought that if the people returning to the south were to be apportioned in the way of resettlement of several or more than ten households in one village. The resistance will be much smaller, and there will be no fight between the people of the two villages over the water source, as in Gusi County. ”

At this time, another local scholar from Shuofang was not convinced: "Brother Gao, if you settle several households in each village, the people returning to the south will be apportioned. Will the villagers of those villages be happy to accept it? If a village suddenly has a few more people with the surname Outdoors, will they be happy? They still think they're taking their water and land! ”

Gao Pei didn't care. Smiling slightly, he continued to explain: "This is the only way to effectively curb the conflict between the people of the two places!" Of course, this plan is not isolated, and there must be certain auxiliary measures, otherwise it will still be empty. ”

Gao Pei's words. Qin Feng couldn't help but be interested. He also asked, "Senior brother, if you have any good ideas, please just say it!" ”

After Gao Pei bowed to Qin Feng, Fang explained: "Du Du, Xiao Ke thinks that after dispersing the people returning to the south to the villages. Because they are in the minority, and most of the people in their villages are related to each other. In this case. They should not dare to take the initiative to cause trouble, at least reducing the possibility of making trouble by half. In order to make the local people happy to accept these southbound people to settle in their villages. And live in harmony. We can issue a proclamation announcing that all villages that accept people returning from the south and treat them well can be exempted from taxes, and the more households each village accepts, the longer and more taxes will be reduced. In this way, the people of each village will naturally not resist, but will actively cooperate with the people returning to the south to settle in their own villages! With the strong support and cooperation of the people, there are not only many unnecessary disputes, but also let the lonely and unaccompanied people who return to the south feel the warmth of the villagers and relatives, and in addition, it can reduce the trouble of the government, which can be described as a beautiful thing that kills three birds with one stone. ”

Gao Pei's words made everyone present wake up like a dream. They never expected this trick, and they all looked at Gao Pei with a little admiration.

Qin Feng was even more moved, Li Shimin had previously promised to exempt Shuofang City from taxes for three years, and he originally planned to wait for the resettlement work to be completed before announcing it. However, Gao Pei's proposal is to make use of this tax exemption policy to the limit. His mind is meticulous and flexible, and it is estimated that he is not much more than Ma Zhou, Qin Feng has a feeling of picking up a treasure.

He immediately nodded in agreement: "Good! Then do as the senior brother wants! You immediately draw up a detailed rule that a village will exempt as many households as many households as they return to the south for one year, as many as two years, and as many as three years. and related incentives and disincentives......"

Then, Qin Feng got up and glanced at the officials present and said, "Everyone, if this resettlement work can be successfully completed. I promise you that those who are willing to stay in Shuofang can become officials in Shuofang. Under my rule, as long as you are talented and have good moral character, you are not afraid that there will be no chance of promotion, and I hope you will work hard to fight for a good future for the people and for you! ”

Everyone bowed and saluted, and these people were even more energetic, and said in unison that they would do their best not to disappoint the Lord Governor and not to disappoint the people. Qin Feng didn't promote anyone in government affairs, but his way of employing people in the army is famous, he uses people in an eclectic way, only emphasizing talent and morality, not qualifications, and no gateway view, this is not a secret in Shuofang, now that Qin Feng has stacked his words here, then, as long as Qin Feng and Qin Dadu are satisfied, they will suddenly become state officials, which is a good thing that they could never dream of before. Besides, who doesn't know that Qin Feng is the son-in-law and celebrity of the emperor of the current dynasty, if he gets his recommendation, isn't it an opportunity to ascend to the sky?

However, they also knew that the key was not in Qin Feng, but in themselves. Whether or not you can win this award is proved by facts.

Liu Renliang, Ma Zhou, and Du He saw Qin Feng's words, and everyone's enthusiasm was aroused. In my heart, I also admire Qin Feng's ability to incite people's hearts, but they can't do it, of course, this is also determined by personal status, Qin Feng is the leading boss of the land of Sanzhou, and the weight of what he says is naturally different from others.

****************************

Time passed in a flash, Abe Jintu "played" in Shuofang for six days, during which Sun Lang and they had nothing of value to offer, and in desperation, Abe Jintu had to leave Shuofang with disappointment and return to Chang'an.

Before leaving, he went to the Governor's Mansion to meet Qin Feng.

In order to make Abe's entry into the soil feel at ease, when Qin Yong met with him, he deliberately used his internal strength and made a tired appearance of "overindulgence", and hinted that he was very satisfied with the beauties that Abe paid tribute to.

Abe thought he had a plan and left satisfied, which was the only gain from his trip.

It's just that he never dreamed that he left Shuofang on the front foot, and Ma Zhou immediately launched an operation against him on the grounds of investigating the spies, and in order to hide people's eyes, he used the power of the military and took away a total of more than 200 people.

However, in one hour, the innocent people returned safely, and the official also compensated each person with five catties of dried meat to thank the people for their cooperation. After all, the official action is also to ensure the peace of the party, and the people have the obligation to cooperate free of charge, and the official also sends jerky, which is definitely a unique part of the world.

Of course, the people arrested by the Shuofang government are not blind, but targeted, some of whom were once suspected of being Jieli and Tuli forces, and now, the innocence of some people has been proven, while others have disappeared from people's sight forever.

As for Sun Lang and others, they were also arrested in this operation. It's just that when they returned, they all turned pale and trembled, just because from this moment on, they had officially become spies under the control of drugs.

When Sun Lang and others were arrested, they were enjoying themselves in the green building, and after Abe went into the soil, they were free and indulged again, and they couldn't think about it after a long time, forgetting what their parents were.

It wasn't until the officers and soldiers pulled them out of bed that they knew that trouble was coming.

As Ma Zhou said, these people are extremely selfish, and when they enter the torture hall, they don't need to be interrogated to extract confessions at all, but the majesty accumulated by the government for thousands of years, as well as the separate detention and interrogation, are enough to scare Sun Lang and them into confiding everything.

Sun Lang and the others were originally a small gang of ruffians and hooligans near Chang'an, doing improper things to bully men and women.

One night they committed the crime, they let a mysterious man catch him, and just when they were worried about seeing the official, things took a miraculous turn. Instead of sending them to prison, the mysterious man made a deal with them in exchange for gold for their work.

The trading currency of the Tang Dynasty was Tongbao, but gold and silver have always been expensive, and it is very good to get rid of them, and it is not a matter of minutes to exchange them for Tongbao.

Sun Lang and the others could not be moved, and from then on, they began to do things for others, and half a year later, they finally knew the true identity of the mysterious person - he was Abe Jintu of Yamato Country. Since then, they have become Abe's lackeys to do things for him.

It's just that from now on, they're already two-way spies. However, Ma Zhou also clearly told them that by cooperating with the government, their lives will only be easier and chic, and they don't have to risk their lives to spy on the news, because any information that Abe wants will be provided to the criminal gang headed by Sun Lang.

As for the truth of the information, except for the only few high-level officials in Shuofang, only God knows. But these are enough to make Sun Lang and them make a difference.
