Chapter 346: Tug-of-War with Rebellion

Chapter 346: Tug-of-war with rebellion

Xu Guangqi faced the entire immigration process, although he was confident, and repeatedly explained to the emperor in northern Shaanxi that he should take more care of the place that would be the focus of the disaster, but the situation still exceeded his expectations.

Northern Shaanxi, although it is also connected to the Yellow River, but it is too far away from Xi'an and Tongguan, and the grain is transported from Tongguan to northern Shaanxi, just the freight and consumption of this section of the road can be compared with the grain transported from Jiangnan to Tongguan, or even more expensive, so the grain in northern Shaanxi has always been a headache for Xu Guangqi, although every county has immigration officers, but there is no food for immigration officials, it is obviously not possible, and the immigration officers are only a few taels of meat, and obviously cannot be eaten as food.

On July 19, Xu Guangqi received the news from Bi Zisu, the governor of Shaanxi, that there would be a civil uprising on the 23rd, and the scale was quite large, and that northern Shaanxi, especially Fugu, was the focus, so that Xu Guangqi was prepared, Xu Guangqi did not pay much attention to it at the beginning, such a catastrophe, there was a civil uprising, it was expected, until the delivery of a letter, Xu Guangqi felt the seriousness of the situation.

"Jade Rope, come and see, what's so special about this message?" Xu Guangqi read the letter by chance, and his heart suddenly woke up, but he still said calmly on the surface, Xu Guangqi realized that he almost missed a big thing.

"Oh, Master Xu, but what's the matter? This one? It doesn't seem to be the news from the immigration officer, hey, it seems to be the seal of the border army of Fugu County, and the payment is also the border army of Fugu County...... What's so strange about this? Zhou Yanru took the letter, it seems that the seal and payment are the seals of the border army in Fugu County, which is strange, they are the Department of Agriculture, in charge of immigration, and the news is that there are more immigration officials from all over the country.

"What do you see inside?" Xu Guangqi's heart was turbulent, and his face was indeed calmly asked.

"It is said that there are some disaster victims in Fugu County who can't survive, and they want to immigrate to the south, and there are many people who want to emigrate, and most of them are women and children, and they have nothing to eat, so they want to ask our Department of Agriculture, and the immigration officer will send someone to send some food over, so that they can walk down by themselves, or send a boat to pick up people, and I am grateful......" Zhou Yanru read the letter and said.

"Well, Jade Rope, you flip through the news sent by the immigration officer of Fugu County in the past few days, see what it says." Sun Chengzong still said calmly, after this calmness, the earth-shattering waves in his heart gradually calmed down.

According to Xu Guangqi's meaning, Zhou Yanru took out a letter in a large cabinet, looked at it, and determined that it was from Fugu County.

“…… Master Xu, this is the news of Shi Kefa, Shi Xianzhi, the immigration officer of Fugu County, Shaanxi? Oh, what's so special about this? "Zhou Yanru is a deputy Qincha, working with Xu Guangqi, running errands for Xu Guangqi, or doing some work that requires strength, Xu Guangqi is old after all, his energy is not as good as that of young people, and he needs someone to help. Zhou Yanru also has a lot of respect for this emperor who is called a master, not for anything else, Xu Guangqi is so old, this immigration matter, although it is said that only a year's budget has been prepared, only 10 million taels of silver, but, according to his Zhou Yanru's calculations, or rather, according to the scale of millions of immigrants in history, it is by no means a year or two can be completed, maybe it will be many years, so, such a heavy burden, on an elderly man, it is impossible to serve for a long time, it is too hard, so, The question of the successor of the Qin Cha, although it has not surfaced now, but it is also an undercurrent, he Zhou Yanru is going to strive for, and there is a deputy Qin Cha with him, who is in charge of the river, and he has a certain competitiveness, so he Zhou Yanru must do things well, and must obtain the approval of this old man, when the time comes, to take over the matter of the Qin Cha, it can be expected that the emperor will listen to Xu Guangqi's opinion, Xu Guangqi said who it is, as long as it is not too bad, it is estimated that it is who, so, Zhou Yanru is active and willing to work, is quite flattering, and he has never been so diligent in serving his father.

Xu Guangqi was still average to Zhou Yanru at the beginning, but after getting along for a while, he found that although this person was in a high position at a young age, he was a master who did not distinguish between grains and grains and was not diligent in the five bodies, but, after a period of observation, Xu Guangqi found that Zhou Yanru was still a little diligent, talking and doing things, and he was also quite attentive. ,

"Yes, it's also the news that has been delivered in the past few days, I read it at the time, and I didn't take it too seriously, but, Yuxian, you are combining this news with today's letter, and then reading it together with Lord Bi's news, to see if you can see something." Xu Guangqi has been restless in the past few days, only thinking that it was caused by the news of the civil uprising, but today he suddenly saw a strange letter, suddenly woke up, found something strange, and set off a monstrous * in his heart.

Shi Kefa said in the letter that someone came to him with a letter from the border army, saying that there were quite a lot of victims in the upper reaches of the Yellow River in Fugu County,...... Today's letter is also a border army in Fugu County...... Well, the certificate they issued ...... also said that there were a large number of disaster victims in Fugu County who wanted to emigrate to the south...... well, the news from Lord Bi was that the people of Shaanxi had changed throughout the province...... The focus is on Suide, Fugu in northern Shaanxi...... Fugu ......, but also Fugu ......" Zhou Yanru combed through the information he had obtained, and was also suddenly shocked, the place of rebellion pointed to Fugu; Someone asked for an immigration letter from the border army in Fugu to find the immigration officer of Fugu County; Someone even took the letter from the border army and directly found the Xi'an Si Nong Division to surrender the letter, what does this mean? There's nothing in it? Border Army, Disaster Victims, Fugu County, People's Uprising, Immigration...... These words made Zhou Yanru fall into shock

Zhou Yanru was inexplicably surprised, looking at the letter in his hand in surprise, and was quite shocked by the results he deduced

"Master Xu, this ...... Could it be ......" Zhou Yanru was speechless in shock.

"Wang Er's ilk, Wang Er's ......," Xu Guangqi muttered these words.

Zhou Yanru couldn't close his mouth in shock, what did Wang Er do, no one in the whole Shaanxi didn't know, he killed Wang Douyao of Baishui Zhixian County, and as a result, he indirectly killed a governor of Shaanxi, and now, because of his news, the whole Shaanxi is moving, even the capital, now I am afraid that it is also because of his words.

Zhou Yanru took a few breaths before muttering: "Master Xu is saying that the person who sent the letter, like Wang Erzhi and others, may be the person who is preparing to rebel this time, or one of them, may have some relationship with the local border army, and may even be a deserter, while they are sending a letter to our immigration officer and our Si Nongsi, on the other hand, they are discussing the rebellion, that is, they are watching to see if we can deliver the grain, if our grain is not delivered a few days late, they have nothing to eat, I'm afraid I'm going to rebel......" Zhou Yanru was quite shocked by the results he deduced

The earth-shattering waves in Xu Guangqi's heart have subsided, his face is even calmer, and he said: "Yes, Jade Rope, this group of people, I'm afraid that it is the people who raised the flag to rebel in Fugu this time, or rather, one of them, but they are also watching, or rather, they don't want to take the last road, now, it depends on the ability of our agricultural division, whether we can deliver the food as soon as possible, in this way, it is a great good thing, which can minimize the pressure of the people's uprising, on the contrary, it is a misery."

"Then, Master Xu, what about the person who delivered the letter? Hurry up and find the person who delivered the letter" Zhou Yanru suddenly remembered something and said immediately.

"Forget it, jade rope, the person who sent the letter doesn't need to be found, he is afraid that he also knows his identity, and after delivering the letter, he is afraid that he will leave long ago." Xu Guangqi sighed and said.

"Alas......, Master Xu, now, it's all up to Shi Kefa, the immigration officer of Fugu County, if Shi Kefa is able to do things effectively, work hard, and can deliver food in time, it can avoid a group of people from changing the people of Fugu County, and the people of Shaanxi are all looking at Fugu, if they can bring this group of people to the south, it will be a great achievement" Zhou Yanru also sighed, thinking about the key issues, but he could only sigh, it is already the 22nd, tomorrow is the summer, and now, even if it is seven hundred miles urgentNow, the only sustenance is on Shi Kefa, the immigration officer of Fugu County, hoping that this Shi Kefa can deliver the grain in time, so that a group of people are missing to participate in the civil uprising, the scale of the civil uprising in Fugu is naturally limited, the scale of the rebellion in Fugu is limited, and the scale of the civil uprising in Shaanxi is even more limited. If this group of people can be well settled, I am afraid that this group of people will be an example...... Zhou Yanru also felt the relationship and know-how in this.

Xu Guangqi seemed to have decided something, didn't speak, walked straight to a big sand table, and began to gesture. When Zhou Yanru saw Xu Guangqi go to the sand table, he knew what Xu Guangqi was doing. ,

A distinctive sign of the imperialist party, that is, a large sand table should be placed in the office to see and deal with problems with an intuitive image.

Xu Guangqi gestured for a while, and sighed: "Hey......, this Fugu County is one of the northernmost counties in Shaanxi, although the Yellow River flows through here, but this section of the river transportation is really difficult to transport, and the force has not been caught to Tongguan, there are 1,100 miles away on the sand table alone, not to mention the field?" Xu Guangqi measured the distance from Fugu County to Tongguan on the sand table, and he could only be sad, this distance was too far.

"Yes, Master Xu, not only is there more than a thousand miles, but this section of the Yellow River is even more difficult to sail, especially the mouth of the pot, and you have to sail on dry land, to transport such a large batch of grain, it is difficult, Master Xu, but how is it good?" Zhou Yanru also looks at the sand table office every day these days, and also looks at the information of various rivers in Shaanxi every day, and also understands the situation of this section of the Yellow River.

"Jade rope, it doesn't matter, what matters is that now, our immigrants have become the key to influencing the civil uprising, how many people are looking at the immigration ability of our Si Nong, if we are able to immigrate, how much will follow the rebellious people, will follow Your Majesty, instead of rebelling, this is the most critical, now, Shaanxi's civil uprising, it can be said that most of it depends on us, it can be said that we are the first people to determine the scale of the civil uprising in Shaanxi" Xu Guangqi has been through the earth-shattering waves, his mind has been clear.

"Master Xu is right, this time, I'm afraid it's a tug-of-war between the immigrants of our Si Nongsi and those who rebel, this disaster victim is among them, and the force used a little more over there, so the disaster victims will move a little more over there...... If we go to our side of the Nongsi, the scale of this civil rebellion will be smaller, on the contrary, if we don't immigrate effectively, the victims will rebel ......" Zhou Yanru now completely understands the pressure of the immigrants, and understands the key to it, talking to Xu Guangqi on his lips, still wailing in his heart, if nothing else, just for the mouth of the Yellow River, the boat on the dry land, and there are hundreds of miles of rivers that cannot be taken by boat, this is ............ transporting grain, Zhou Yanru feels that he has a toothache......

"Jade Rope is really a transparent person, that's right, all this, Your Majesty has long been expected, and has repeatedly emphasized the importance of northern Shaanxi, but we can't see the situation clearly, and now we have found the clues when the matter is coming to an end, ala......s, I am waiting for Your Majesty to be far away......" Xu Guangqi sighed, the emperor had repeatedly told him, pay attention to those places in northern Shaanxi, those places are barren, and may be the hardest hit areas, although Xu Guangqi also attaches importance to it, and allocates a lot of manpower and material resources to transport grain to northern Shaanxi, but, obviously, I didn't expect this to be the case, but I still didn't pay enough attention to it, this matter is no longer just a matter of immigration, it has become a tug-of-war between them and the rebellion, pulling out the victims in the middle, and if it is not effective, the people in Shaanxi will spread all over Shaanxi.

The seriousness of the matter and the pressure of the matter suddenly pressed on Xu Guangqi's head.

"What Master Xu said is not bad, His Majesty's teachings at the beginning are still vivid, and I felt a little too much at the beginning, but now, compared with the reality, I realized that Your Majesty is far-sighted, far beyond us" Zhou Yanru also saw the emperor at the beginning, and the emperor also told him, and now he realizes that although the emperor is young and has never been out of Beijing, but the estimation of the situation is quite accurate, and Zhou Yanru is also admired.

"Jade Rope, now the plan can only look at this Shi Kefa, I hope he will not make a mistake, otherwise, the national law will be ruthless...... In addition, he had to tell Shi Kefa the news quickly, so that he could find a way to stabilize that group of people, and he had to increase his efforts to mobilize grain from Tongguan, no, from Yumen down, no, level by level, Xingxian grain to Fugu, Jia County's grain to Xing County, Wubao to Jia ......County, in short, first send grain to Fugu County, even if it is a dry land boat, you have to transport grain to Fugu, even if it is smashed with silver, you have to smash this road open, we must not destroy this matter in our hands. "Xu Guangqi has not had much silver in his hand, the budget is far from enough, it has always been a silver broken into two flowers, and now, in order to stabilize those who may rebel, he is also gritting his teeth and smashing it with silver.

"Master Xu is right, this matter, can only make more silver, have to make more volunteers, stationed in this section of the river, to transport the grain below the mouth of the pot as soon as possible, no food, everything is fake...... This tug-of-war, our agricultural division can't lose" Zhou Yanru has also figured it out now, and understands that food is the key, without food, you have to let others not rebel, it is impossible. ,

"Well, the jade rope will deal with it as soon as possible, after the processing, the two of us will go to Master Bi, tell him the news, and discuss how to do it together, he is the leader of the army to deal with the people's uprising, His Majesty has authorized him, and now this people's uprising, but most of it depends on whether the immigrants of our Si Nongsi are ...... competent, in addition, we have to send this news to Your Majesty as soon as possible......" Xu Guangqi immediately asked Zhou Yanru to handle these things, and he himself concentrated on writing letters to the emperor, private letters, and open letters.

Zhou Yanru agreed, and he did it happily. Now this immigrant Qincha, not to mention the money in his hand, just manages hundreds of Jinshi immigration officers, involving hundreds of states and counties, just this article, it can also be seen how much power this immigrant Qincha has, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the governor of several provinces, therefore, Zhou Yanru is a mind to take over Xu Guangqi's class in the future, so he is also attentive to doing things, and he is also neat, and he is even more happy, at least Xu Guangqi must be able to see it, and in the future, Xu Guangqi will retire, and Xu Guangqi will recommend him.

When I came out of the official office of the Ministry of Agriculture, it was already the beginning of the day.

Xu Guangqi rode a horse, and Zhou Yanru did the same, riding a horse, following Xu Guangqi, and heading towards the governor's yamen.

The governor of the yamen was not far away, and Xu Guangqi soon arrived.

Bi Zisu learned that Xu Guangqi was coming, and personally went out to greet him, and brought officials of all sizes.

"Hehe, Master Xu is here, there is a loss of welcome, there is a ......loss of welcome, there is a loss of welcome, Master Xu came to the yamen in person so late, but what advice ......?" As a member of the Imperial Party, Bi Zisu is naturally cordial and respectful to the first and second figures of the Imperial Party.

"Fan Jiu, there is indeed something, and the stakes are very high, I have to come"

Seeing Xu Guangqi's face calm, with a hint of anxiety in his words, Bi Zisu suddenly became nervous, originally, he had already arranged Shaanxi seventy-seven-eighty-eight, but now seeing Xu Guangqi's arrival, he knew that something must be wrong, and his heart rose again.

……

The focus of the controversy is how to deal with Wang Er, and the group of people represented by Wang Er, this matter, people with a discerning eye have seen that Wang Er is a key figure, which will affect the success of immigration, so some people want to protect Wang Er, and the group of people represented by Wang Er, on the other hand, it is out of the interests of the ruling class, thinking that Wang Er must be killed, and must kill a policeman, otherwise, the ruling class has no sense of security. As a result, Wang Er unconsciously became a key and the key to the argument between the two sides.
