The 233rd round of exiles came to vote
In March of the third year of Jian'an, Cao Cao sent troops to attack Zhang Xiu as planned, and surrounded Zhang Xiu in the city without much effort...... But this has nothing to do with Lu Ren, who is leisurely basking in the sun on a certain piece of turf in Meng Village at this moment.
There are not many residents of Moe Village now, even if they are in the past. Mi Zhen brought more than 300 Mi family children, and the Zhen sisters left here about 200, which is basically the main composition of the residents of Meng Village. Then Lu Ren opened a chicken and duck farm and temporarily recruited dozens of peasant women...... All in all, the current population of Meng Village is at most in the early 600s and less than 700, and it can only be regarded as a medium-sized village.
Such a village is not comparable to those tuntian points with thousands of people at every turn. And so many of Luren's people have been managed, and it is easy to manage such a village. After the planning and arrangement, Lu Ren basically had nothing to do, so he would leisurely bask in the sun on the turf at this time.
Originally, according to the system at that time, the village actually had officials like the village elders to supervise, but there was a Lu Ren squatting here, how could those village elders dare to be presumptuous? However, Lu Ren did not embarrass the old officials of the township, and after asking them to coordinate things such as household registration, he said that he would pay the corresponding taxes on time. As for the conscription, Lu Ren said that he would use money to settle it. In short, it's still the same sentence, if it's not necessary, Lu Ren doesn't want to cause some unnecessary trouble.
Warm spring March is the best time to go out and play, and Lu Ren is not an official now, so he doesn't have to be as busy as in previous years, so his life is naturally much more casual and lazy. To tell the truth, Lu Ren was forced to be so diligent when he was an official before, because if he didn't do things diligently, maybe Lao Cao would blame him one day, but he couldn't eat and walk, and he couldn't be diligent. But now no one forces it, and I won't force myself, isn't it good to be lazy and free? Then again, most of the sling otaku in modern society will have such a problem......
Lu Ren was drowsy here, but suddenly heard a noise outside the village. When he was very dissatisfied and got up to look for prestige again, Lu Lan was already running towards Lu Ren, and he was still shouting: "My lord, my lord!" Something happened! ”
Lu Ren was slightly startled, hurriedly greeted Lu Lan, and asked, "What's wrong?" I heard a strange commotion outside the village, it seemed like a lot of people were coming, maybe some thieves or something came to us, right? ”
Lu Lan took a few breaths, shook her head again and again, and said, "It's not like a thief." However, there are many people from outside the village, and it seems that there must be at least seven or eight hundred people. Ah Cheng and Ah Xin were afraid of what happened, so they had already taken the young men in the village to stop them, and when they arrived at the entrance of the village, they said that they wanted to see you. ”
"You want to see me?" Lu Ren was puzzled: "Hundreds of people want to see me?" What's the situation? Hey, forget it, there's no point in grinding your lips here, Xiaolan, you take me to have a look. ”
At that moment, Lu Ren followed Lu Lan to the entrance of the village, and at this time, the entrance of the village was in a state of almost confrontation, although the atmosphere was not so tense, but there were still some people in the past. Lu Ren didn't dare to be careless, and secretly activated the physical strength enhancer to prevent accidents, and then crossed his own crowd to the front of the people, and arched his hand to the person on the opposite side and said: "Down there is Lu Ren, what is the matter with you looking for me?" ”
The leader on the opposite side saw Lu Ren stand up, and after taking a few closer looks, he was overjoyed: "Lu Lingjun! It's really Lu Lingjun! ”
Lu Ren just wanted to say that he had been dismissed from the official and was not a "Lingjun", but the actions of the person opposite made Lu Ren's jaw almost fall to the ground, because all the people of the seventh or eight hundred knelt to the ground to Lu Ren.
"Huh!? What are you doing? ”
The leader knelt on the ground and said to Lu Ren: "Lu Lingjun, you don't know, a few days ago, after our people knew that Ling Jun was dismissed because you made a mistake, everyone said that Lu Lingjun was such a good official, but he had to be removed from office because of such a little mistake?" We don't know about the other tuns, anyway, these hundreds of people in our tun have no minds. Everyone summed it up and decided to come here to join Lu Lingjun. ”
"Huh!?"
Lu Ren was stunned on the spot, but it was also at this time that he remembered to carefully sweep the hundreds of people who came. For a few years, Lu Ren has been dealing with all kinds of homeless people almost all the time, so at this moment, you can see at a glance that these people are all ordinary homeless. And among these seven or eight hundred people, there are basically men, women, and children:
"You—why don't you stay in your own camp and come to me?"
The leader responded: "Lu Lingjun was dismissed, and everyone doesn't know what kind of person will be the full favor who will succeed Lu Lingjun." Instead of worrying there, it is better to simply come to Lu Lingjun. Everyone said that if you follow Lu Lingjun, you will definitely not go hungry. ”
"I ......"
Lu Ren was dumbfounded, and said in his heart, when did I have such a high degree of trust? Looking at so many people who have come to the family, Lu Renxin said that this situation will be too exaggerated?
To be honest, Lu Ren also ignored some things, and the current scene is not an exaggeration. In fact, in the original historical process, when Cao Cao first implemented the tuntian system, many displaced people were also treated with an uneasy mentality, so that there were not a few people who fled. Later, some people advised Cao Cao not to use strong means to persecute the displaced people, but to use gentle means to guide them, so that Cao Cao's Tuntian could go on smoothly.
In addition, there is also such a record in historical materials, that is, there are some local officials, because they take good care of the people in the territory when they are in office, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and as a result, when these officials are transferred to other places, the people in the territory actually have to move to the place where the officials are transferred...... Lu Ren is actually close to this situation now. Although Lu Ren had only been in Xuchang for more than a year, Lu Ren's more care for the people and his mastery of agricultural knowledge had already established a prestige in the hearts of the people that even Lu Ren did not know.
Moreover, in the chaotic situation, the people have already seen too much of the bad things caused by those powerful officials. Now that Lu Ren is such a good official, he has been removed from his official position just because of an "unintentional mistake", and it is easy for the people to guess whether Lu Ren has offended some powerful person to fall into such a fate, which has caused uneasiness in the hearts of many people. And under the guidance of this emotion, the tun people will naturally have a very distrustful attitude towards the full favor of Lu Ren, for fear that the full favor who replaced Lu Ren is a rotten official who will make them unable to live a stable life.
In the end, it was under such a mentality that some bold Tun decided to leave the original tun and simply ran to Lu Ren. Let's put it this way, their mentality is that instead of being a hungry man under a rotten official, it is better to be a tenant farmer of Lu Ren. At least if they were Lu Ren's tenant farmers, Lu Ren's personality would definitely not make them hungry......
Lu Ren is not a stupid person, and he will ...... with these tun people after being stunned Maybe it's time to call them homeless people now, anyway, after picking a few people out to talk to each other, Lu Ren quickly understood the mystery. In this regard, Lu Ren was really a little crying and laughing, but he also understood that in that era, it was actually normal for poor homeless people to make such a choice. Unlike those officials recorded in historical materials, those officials were transferred, but Lu Ren was dismissed, in other words, Lu Ren had the rhythm of becoming a strong party.
Become a strong man? Lu Ren really didn't have that guts, because Lu Ren knew that Lao Cao had always been a fighter against Haoqiang. However, it is okay to become a squire and lead the villagers to get rich under the premise of obeying the law and abiding by the law. And all of a sudden, so many people came to him, and it seems that you Lu Ren can't say it if you don't accept it.
Besides, Lu Ren is indeed short of people at hand now. There are only about 600 people in Meng Village, although it is because of the people brought by Mi Zhen and Zhen sisters for some reasons, nearly 500 people are young and strong laborers, but it is definitely not enough to do something that Lu Ren wants to do. Now that so many people have suddenly come, some of the things that Lu Ren wants to do are not afraid of being unmanned.
So, Lu Ren first appeased these people who came, and then hurriedly went to Mi Zhen to discuss how to settle these newcomers. And for this kind of thing, Mi Zhen is also an expert, and immediately began the corresponding arrangements and arrangements according to Lu Ren's intentions...... In those times, the more domestic slaves and servants under his hands, as well as tenant farmers and so on, of course, the better.
Perhaps Lu Ren's reputation among the people of the Tuntun around Xuchang is really too good, since the arrival of these 700 people, in the next few days, many displaced people have left the original Tun, and came to Meng Village to join Lu Ren. But this kind of thing may be good to say once or twice, and Lu Ren is also in a cold sweat after many times. If this is mistaken by the official for Lu Ren's move, believe it or not, Cao Cao will immediately send troops to destroy Lu Ren?
So Lu Ren hurriedly went to Xun Yu, and then through Xun Yu, he found the new Xu Du Ling Manzhong and the new Zao Yi and Ren Jun who took over the charge of Tuntian, and repeatedly warned them that they must appease the people of Tuntian as soon as possible, and at the same time do not disturb those Tuntian laws that were set before. If it really caused any big uneasiness and agitation, Lu Ren knew with his toes that it would be a big trouble.
After finishing these and running back to Meng Village, Lu Ren stood on a high place and looked at Meng Village, whose population had broken through 3,000 inexplicably, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart: "What is this sister called?" I didn't want to get into trouble, but trouble got its way. Do I have such high authority in the hearts of the outcasts? I've only been working on a field for more than three years! Is this true now? ”
