Liu Kan is very busy!

After the beginning of spring, the immigrants from Sanchuan County finally arrived in Louting. According to the register, there are 300 households and more than 1,400 people. However, due to the bumps on the way, and the long journey in the cold winter wax moon, more than 30 people fell on the way to the pavilion.

A total of 1,378 people actually arrived at the building.

There are 10 tuns, each with a local village elder serving as the tun chief, who is responsible for managing these immigrants. The two lieutenants who escorted the immigrants to the building warehouse were the two lieutenants.

And they are Liu Kan's acquaintances, Li Bi and Luo Jia.

In just two years, the two men have been promoted to the rank of lieutenant and now serve under Neishi Mengtian.

When people meet, they have to talk about their parting feelings. But when Liu Kan saw these yellow-skinned immigrants with vegetables, the joy in his heart disappeared all of a sudden.

It's noon, and it's also time to eat.

Cao Shen and Zhou Chang immediately took over, counted the roster, and prepared for placement. The migrants sat down in an orderly manner and took out the dry food from the package to satisfy their hunger. Tun Chang came forward, asked Zhou Chang for some water, and then distributed it, and squatted aside to eat.

"These are the immigrants from the imperial court?"

Liu Kan frowned and asked in a low voice: "Why do they look so embarrassed, not like immigrants, but look like refugees?" ”

Li Bi smiled bitterly: "This is also something that can't be helped." Who wants to leave their homeland if they have land? Most of these people are Sanchuan untouchables, and some of them don't even have household registration, and after being caught, they are filled into the immigration. Originally. The imperial court was hesitant about immigration.

This group of immigrants is just a temptation.

But now it seems that it is estimated that it will not be long before the subsequent immigration will come out. It's all thanks to your brother. ”

Liu Kan was stunned, "What does it have to do with me?" ”

Luo Jia said: "Why does it have nothing to do with you? A few days ago, you made so many troubles, and along the way, we met ten teams of messengers, all of whom rushed to Xianyang from Yu County. If such a big thing happened in Sihong, it will definitely strengthen the imperial court's decision on the immigration of the Sihong area

"Lao Luo, it's only been a long time, you've learned a lot!"

Liu Kan couldn't help but quip. But in the heart. But there were some miserabs.

Thousands of people were implicated, which was really beyond Liu Kan's expectations. In response to that sentence: I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies because of me. Even if some of these people don't deserve it, most of them are probably innocent, but they can't escape a tragic fate.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh softly.

Luo Jia didn't notice Liu Kan's emotional change, and said to himself: "If you want to talk about long learning, I really have grown a little."

Brother Kan, don't underestimate these people. There are people who have hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

Oh, look at that man...... It's the middle-aged man who is dispensing water. His name was Gongcang, and it is said that his ancestral home was in Yangwu (present-day Yuanyang, Henan). But Xu caused something at home and temporarily lived in Xingyang. When he immigrated this time, he was also taking the place of others.

Literate and hyphenated, and very knowledgeable.

I've talked to this bow along the way, and I've really gotten some guidance. Those words just now came from him

It is inevitable that some people will be willing and some people will not want to do this kind of thing.

If you don't have enough manpower. The local government can only forcibly levy it. If you have a relationship, you can find someone to replace you. For this kind of thing. Generally speaking, the government has one eye open and one eye closed, as long as it can make up enough numbers. And the person who replaces them often has no property, and may even offend someone, and has to agree.

Daqin has been unified for many years, and it has also rectified household registration.

But after all, the involvement is too wide, and it is difficult to sort out all aspects of this household registration. For example, Gao Yuanli, who was hiding in Song Zi, isn't he just a person with no identity? The area is wide and the population is larger. The rule of the Great Qin Dynasty will inevitably have such and such loopholes.

"By the way, you are in Xianyang, have you ever heard of Gao gradually leaving."

Liu Kan asked suddenly.

Li Bi was stunned, "Brother Akan, do you know Gao Yuanli?" ”

"I've seen it!"

Liu Kan had nothing to hide, and said with a smile: "When I went to Songzi to do business the year before last. It coincided with the birthday banquet of Duke Xu. I once heard the high fade away play a song. But at that time, I didn't know that he was Gao Yuanli...... Hehe, it was Xu Gong who told me about it later. ”

Li Bi breathed a sigh of relief. "Don't get involved with these people. After Na Gao gradually left Xianyang, His Majesty gouged out his eyes and left a life. Now it is specially built for His Majesty, and he is indeed very famous in Xianyang, and many people respect him very much.

Even Lord Monte appreciated it very much.

However, His Majesty is still haunted by his past affairs, and vows to catch his accomplices. So, you don't mention his name much in the future. ”

This is also familiar with Liu Kan, and Li Bi will say these words.

If you change someone, I'm afraid that they will take them down immediately and interrogate them first.

Liu Kan hurriedly thanked him and glanced at the bow warehouse in Luo Jia's mouth. His brows furrowed suddenly, and he walked towards Gong Cang.

Li Biluojia didn't understand what he meant, and hurriedly followed. The three of them came to Yukura, and the Yukura and the people around him immediately stood up.

"What you eat is ......"

Liu Kan pointed to the dry food in the hand of a boy beside Gongcang and couldn't help but ask. That dry food can no longer be called dry food......

It was black, and there were mottled mold spots on it.

But the boy clutched tightly in his hand as if he were afraid of being snatched away.

"This is their own dry food...... What's wrong? ”

"It's all moldy, how can you eat it?" Liu Kan turned around and asked softly, "Didn't you say that the imperial court would give them food?" ”

Li Bi rolled his eyes, "That's military service." ”

"Huh?"

Luo Jia explained: "Only for military service, food will be given. However, when you go on the expedition, you have to bring your own food. Three to ten days' rations, and then the imperial court will be equipped. Actually, the rations have already been passed once on the road...... It's just that now the Baiyue War has entered the critical stage, and most of Henan's grain has been allocated. What is left in the treasury is some backlog of old millet, as long as you can eat enough. ”

Without waiting for Liu Kan to speak, Li Bi continued: "Don't talk about them, even if they are pawns, what can they do?" I've heard people say that Baiyue has a hot climate. Three days' rations arrived, and after a day, they were all broken. threw away, didn't eat; If you eat it, it's easy to get sick again. ”

Shelf life!

Liu Kan's brows were twisted together.

"My lord, do you want to eat?"

The timid voice sounded in Liu Kan's ears.

A thin, vegetable-faced little girl stepped out from behind the bow and held up a black, rancid cake.

"Qi girl, don't mess around!"

Yukura hurriedly pulled the little girl aside.

Unexpectedly, Liu Kan stopped her. Squatted down and patted the little girl's brain.

The age of the little girl is about seven or eight years old. With big watery eyes, he looked at Liu Kan innocently.

Liu Kan squatted down, and he was much taller than this little girl. He took the piece of bread from her hand and took a bite of it...... It's a coarse corn.

"Zhou Chang!"

Liu Kan screamed.

Zhou Chang, who was counting the number of people with Cao Shen in the distance, hurriedly ran over, "Owner, what's the matter?" ”

"How much grain and grass do we have in our treasury?"

"Well, about a hundred stone or so...... Hehe. You transferred 200 stones from Pei County, but Shao Sima didn't ask for them. So there are quite a few left.

In addition, Lord Ren sent someone a few days ago and allocated 1,500 stone from the grain and grass sent by Yu County before, saying that it was used to resettle the immigrants. Shao Sima has been escorted to Xu County for the rest of the heavy grain and grass...... In a few days, though, there may be rations. ”

Liu Kan pondered for a moment, "Put all the essence of the millet forward, so that everyone can have a good meal." ”

"Whoa!"

Liu Kan hugged the little girl, "Girl, what's your name?" ”

The little girl said timidly, "My surname is Qi." No name......"

Gongcang said: "This girl was originally a Dingtao person, originally a local rich family, two years ago when His Majesty moved 120,000 rich people to Xianyang, and died halfway. Her people swallowed her parents' property and sold her to a family in Xingyang...... Last year His Majesty was in Bolangsha...... The family was also implicated. This time, she was also filled in. This child's surname is Qi, and we all call her Qi Ji.

Children are not sensible. I hope you don't see it as a surprise. ”

This bow cang faced Liu Kan. When it comes to speaking, he is neither humble nor arrogant.

Although the clothes were ragged, they were in that gesture. It exudes a different kind of majesty.

Liu Kan was keenly aware: This guy has been an official!

That kind of bearing is not something that ordinary scholars can have. His eyes narrowed, and he looked the man up and down.

"How could I blame her?"

Liu Kan said with a smile: "Let's put away all the dry food, the official has ordered someone to prepare the food, and it will be delivered to you in a while." You are thousands of miles away, from Sanchuan County to this pavilion, it is really hard. The official has nothing to entertain, but invites you to a hot meal and a sip of hot water...... After waiting for the resettlement, each family will send someone to come to the government office to receive grain and grass. ”

This sentence made more than 1,300 people suddenly quiet down.

After a while, these people let out a loud cheer, "Your Excellency, I am grateful to the small people, grateful!" ”

The bow cang was also stunned, looked at Liu Kan in surprise, and slammed it to the ground, "The adults are benevolent, it is really a blessing for us and other small people." ”

"Qi girl, and your ......"

Liu Kan pointed to the boy who was holding the black cake tightly, and then said to Gong Cang: "These two children, but they are both fatherless and motherless? ”

Yukura nodded, "Exactly!" ”

"In that case, come back with me and serve by my mother's side."

After speaking, Liu Kan smiled and asked Qi Ji: "Girl, are you willing?" ”

"Can you eat enough?"

"Of course!"

Liu Kan smiled, and then said to the boy, "What is your name?" ”

Gong Cang hurriedly said: "This child's surname is Sima, originally from Xiayang (now Hancheng, Shaanxi), and moved to Xingyang due to the war. His parents died early, and he was the only one left in the family, but he was a sensible child. A single name is a happy word, very clever, and also very able to endure hardships. ”

Xi Sima?

Liu Kan squatted down and asked in a deep voice, "Child, are you willing to go with me?" ”

Sima Xi nodded, and handed the piece of black cake in his hand to Liu Kan. Maybe in his mind, this black cake is a gift of audience.

Liu Kan smiled and took the black cake and put it in his arms.

Then he went over and picked up Sima Xi, turned to Li Bi and Luo Jia and said, "Two brothers, I have already set up a banquet in the mansion, and I will not return if I am not drunk." ”

Li Biluojia was already a little impatient.

Liu Kan Fuli...... There must be a lot of good wine......

"Be so, be so!"

The two laughed, led them down by Zhou Chang, and walked to the official office.

Liu Kan glanced at the bow cang with interest, and when he passed by him, he suddenly bent down and whispered in the bow cang's ear: "Her name is Qi Ji, and his name is Sima Xi...... So what's the name of the gentleman? Hehe, if you can say it, Liu should listen to it. ”

The bow canny, his face changed color suddenly.

Note: Sima Xi, the father of Sima Tan and the grandfather of Sima Qian. Xiayang of the Western Han Dynasty is a native of Hancheng, Shaanxi. His father, Sima Xi, was a doctor in the early Han Dynasty.
