Chapter 121 Profit from Chaos (Ask for Subscription!) )
The early spring of the sixth year of Zhongping was much warmer than in previous years.
Officials at all levels have been so anxious to jump up and down in the locust plague warnings issued by the Assassin Prefecture three times that they have rushed to the fields to inspect the spring ploughing land, encouraging farmers from all over the country to drive flocks of chickens, ducks and geese into the newly turned fields and peck at insect eggs as much as possible to alleviate future disasters.
In the eyes of outsiders, the most idle official in the entire Qingzhou is probably Liu Cun.
At the beginning of the new year, Liu Cun returned to his home in Fenghuanggang, Zhushan, with his wife, Mihuan, and enjoyed family fun with his mother-in-law, wife and a group of children, for a month.
First of all, many resolutions of Qingzhou's new policy were promulgated and officially implemented in the form of unprecedented local legislation, which caused a huge shock in the Han dynasty and the opposition.
Secondly, under the unified command of the Qingzhou shogunate, the Langya Army and the Qingzhou Army stationed in various places launched a merciless attack on more than 130 landlords in Anle County, Beihai County, Donglai County, and Qi State with lightning speed.
Thirty-four families of 100-year-old families were uprooted, as many as 100 households of landlords and heroes owed taxes for many years and forcibly occupied land were recovered by the government, and the local armed forces raised by local heroes were either killed by the wolf-like army, or were forcibly disarmed and escorted to the northern part of Pingyuan County for hard labor.
After the end of the entire crackdown operation, more than 130 local tycoons were listed on dozens of charges, including many of them for privately accumulating armed forces, planning rebellion, violently resisting the law, and causing trouble in places, and so on.
The fifteen-day crackdown by the Qingzhou army was extremely bloody, causing great panic and anger among the ruling class of the Han Dynasty. However, it has won the support and support of more than 5 million Qingzhou soldiers and civilians.
In one fell swoop, Liu Cun's regime wiped out all opposition forces in Qingzhou, and the Qingzhou financial yamen obtained as much as one billion yuan confiscated. As much as 2.7 million mu of cultivated land and a large number of mountains, rivers and rivers have been recovered, and it has also won the hearts and minds of the army and the people. Liu Cun's prestige and Qingzhou's new policy were not only not damaged, but even more exalted.
At the same time that the Qingzhou shogunate and the army launched a series of thunderbolt actions, Liu Cun has not been idle, and he spent most of his time in Zhushan either holding annual military meetings with the generals and academies of the navy, or soaking in the Zhushan Weapons Workshop, which is the largest and most technologically advanced today, inspecting the production situation after the implementation of the new weights and measures system, supervising the production practice activities of more than 200 students in the second and third phases of the Chengyang Martial Arts Academy, and discussing the design of new weapons and the improvement of ship manufacturing with highly skilled craftsmen.
Entering February. The teachers and students of Chengyang Martial Arts Academy successfully completed the one-month practice and returned to Tobu New Town to continue their studies.
Liu Cun, who was idle, hugged his second son Liu Song, who was one year old and three months old, and suddenly remembered that he had not been with his family for a whole day in the past month, and his heart was suddenly full of apologies, and he waved his hand to beckon Liu Zhen, the righteous son who had grown into a big guy, and raised his head and muttered for a long time.
The nine-year-old daughter Liu Xin was so anxious that she protested loudly, and the three-year-old eldest son Liu Ze also ran over and desperately drilled into Liu Cun's arms. Do you have to tell him what secret he told his brother? amused the stepmother, Mrs. Taishi, Sun Wan, and Mi Huan so happily, and the cheerful laughter actually attracted the Tai Shici couple next door.
Under Liu Cun's instructions, Liu Zhen respectfully reported the results of the discussion: "Father said that the sky has been very good in the past two days. The wind is not strong, the sun is warm, and I want to invite my grandmother and uncle's aunt and younger brother together. Take the battleship 'Kunpeng', which has just returned from sea trials, and go along the coast to Huangdao in the north. Then come back after a day of sightseeing in Huangdao. ”
The children burst into cheers, and the old lady was so happy that she couldn't keep her mouth shut.
Sun Wan saw that Tai Shici's wife's face was wrong. Hurriedly asked Tai Shici, who was sitting next to Liu Cun: "Uncle, are you bullying our sister Lu'er?" ”
Tai Shici smiled, hugged his two-year-old son and kissed him: "Twenty-five thousand soldiers are still stationed in Yanzhou, and they are not, they are not, they are not, they are not in decline, if they don't come back to ask the eldest brother for instructions, the younger brother will not even have a chance to go home to see, so he must rush back to Yanzhou tomorrow." ”
Liu Cun thought for a while and said: "Let's go together the day after tomorrow, I will also go back to Linzi, stay for the time being tomorrow, and accompany my mother and children to be happy, otherwise I don't know when we can get together." ”
Tai Shi Ci nodded with a smile, and then sighed: "Our two families are also weird, why don't we want to move to Linzi, we can only let them." ”
"In addition to the fact that the city in Linzi is a little bigger, there are more people, how can it compare to our Zhushan?"
"We have mountains, rivers and seas, we can eat fresh seafood every day, there are bees in the backyard, there are big trees and flowers and fruits everywhere in the mountains, the streets are clean, there are schools and medical halls with superb medical skills, there are more and more buildings, more and more comfortable and beautiful than big cities, you can smell the fragrance of flowers in the morning, you can hear the call of nightingales at night, more than 50,000 harmonious villagers live in the surrounding area, neighbors can chat with each other, children can have fun together regardless of their background, if you move to Linzi, are these still there?" Sun Wan asked very proudly.
Liu Cun couldn't help but look at his mother-in-law with a satisfied face, and knew in his heart that it was not only his wife Sun Wan who had a deep affection for Zhushan, but also his stepmother who was accustomed to living by the sea, so he had to propose a compromise to Tai Shici:
"Then it's troublesome for the younger brothers and sisters to run on both sides, anyway, Linzi is not far from Zhushan, if you miss your mother and children in Linzi, you can come back to live for a while at any time."
Tai Shici nodded and said: "That's fine, just let Xiaolu follow her sister-in-law back to Linzi tomorrow, anyway, our two courtyards are connected together, and there are Xiaohe (Fu Minzi) and Junyi (Zhang Hezi) on the side, Mr. Botao and the families of several other gentlemen live in the same compound, and the family members will be lively when they get to know each other, even if the younger brother is not at home, Xiaolu will not be bored." ”
Solving the problem of the separation of Tai Shi Ci and his wife, the old lady Tai Shi put down her worries, happily said that the gifts brought back by Liu Cun and Tai Shi Ci from Luoyang were novel and beautiful, and asked about the palace and the emperor with great interest.
The children rarely did not make noise or noise, and quietly listened to Liu Cun and Tai Shici talk about what they saw and heard in Luoyang, and talked about the interesting story of Emperor Liu Hong's title of general of Tai Shici and others.
All ages spent a rare night in a warm atmosphere. (To be continued......)
