Chapter 49: The Problem of the Displaced People (Fourth Update, Asking for Recommendation)
In 179 A.D., the 18th day of October in the first year of Guanghe, at 3 o'clock at noon
"Wen Heng, have you gathered the food and grass for the second batch of displaced people?" Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Liu Tai asked with a tired face.
This way, through Zhao State, to Wei County, it took Liu Tai nearly eleven days, the speed can be said to be a turtle climbing, but the Central Plains came north to the right Beiping more and more displaced people, from the mouth of the displaced people, Huainan drought, Xuzhou floods, Yuzhou earthquake, the entire Central Plains fell into chaos, the imperial court's disaster relief after layers of exploitation, to the hands of the people only left a nest, and those gate valve clans, without any help, but also wanton enclosure, ignoring the life and death of the people, the trouble of the day and the anger of the people, Liu Tai, who is already kind-hearted, how can he watch the people gnaw on this bark and go north to Yuyang?
For example, today, the only one who can treat the people as a person is Liu Tai, whose good name has spread all over the world, originally the Xianbei coalition army invaded Lulongsai, and most of the displaced people were still waiting, and did not follow Liu Tai's brigade north to the right Beiping, but now Liu Tai has almost completely annihilated the Xianbei coalition army, is it necessary for the displaced people to wait and see? One by one, they dragged their families and led Kou, and traveled thousands of miles from Guanzhong to the Central Plains to Youbeiping.
The feelings of the people of the Han family for their hometown are very important, if they can't really live since ancient times, who wants to run away from home? Well, don't you wonder if there is not a Yellow Sect that is recruiting displaced people on a large scale? How could the people rush to Youbeiping in large numbers? What is Huangjiao? In disguise, it is also a gathering place for a group of displaced people, and under the catastrophe, they can't supply themselves, how can they help so many displaced people? Do you really think that Heavenly Master Zhang Jiao is an immortal? Blow it...
"Lord, with the help of Liu Tingshi, most of the grain and grass have been gathered, but there are too many displaced people, after the seven Jinyi Wei have led people to count, the number is at least more than 400,000, although Jizhou is a continent, but it can't squeeze out too much food, only the people can barely feed themselves, even if they get to Yuyang, our army can't get enough food and grass supply?" Yan Liang looked at Liu Tai's tired expression with an embarrassed face and said, but there was a trace of admiration in his eyes, now those big clans of the Han Dynasty continue to exploit the people on a large scale, not to mention, they also drive the homeless people out of the major towns and cities, and let them fend for themselves, and only Liu Tai is willing to help the homeless people through the difficulties wholeheartedly.
"Harvest, harvest grain, twice the price is not enough, just three, four times, there is more gold and silver in Beiping, I will collect it with all my might, and I must collect the grain and grass of its five million people for half a year, at least to support the autumn harvest next year." I saw Liu Tai's chest constantly rising and falling, and he shouted with a hideous face.
"Yun Chang stepped forward to listen to the order," Liu Tai gritted his teeth and looked at Guan Yu, who was standing there obediently, and said.
"The last general will obey." Guan Yu Danfeng's eyes narrowed, and he arched his hand at Liu Tai on one knee.
Liu Tai bit it, as if he was a little hesitant, but when he thought of the miserable appearance of the homeless people in his mind, he roared in a low voice: "You led a thousand brocade guards to collect grain among the gate lords of the major towns, if the price is four times that of the scholars, those scholars still don't sell, they will be grabbed by Lao Tzu, and the soft ones will come on foot, and the hard ones will come." ”
"The last general commands!" Guan Yu heard Liu Tai's order, and his expression suddenly changed greatly, but he still received the order, Guan Yu didn't have a good impression of those gate lords, and it was not a pity to kill them all.
"My lord, by all means." Yan Liang on the side stepped forward to persuade with a anxious expression, and said with a bitter face: "The lord went south to Luoyang to receive the seal this time, and he still needs to rely on the help of these gate lords, Jizhou is the concentration of gate valves, if it is really hard, wouldn't it offend the bureaucrats of the dead dynasty?" ”
"Hmph, what if you offend?" Liu Tai snorted coldly, and on his handsome face, he said with a cold face: "These gate lord clans are a group of executioners who kill people without blinking, if they don't teach a lesson, will they obediently hand over the grain?" ”
"Don't be impatient, Fei thinks that grabbing food is really a move to bring about self-destruction!" I saw Zhang Fei shaking the leopard's head, stepped forward and said with a confident face, and then without waiting for Liu Tai to answer, Zhang Fei continued: "Lord, Fei thinks, why don't you go to Wuji Zhen's house in person and ask the Zhen family to come forward to raise food and grass for the lord?" ”
"Huh?" In a fit of rage, Liu Tai almost forgot that he was the nominal son-in-law of the Zhen family, and the Zhen family, as the largest merchant in the Han Dynasty, hoarded grain and grass was not enough for the displaced people to go north? However, Liu Tai needs too much grain and grass, and during this time, the Zhen family has also helped a lot, and the grain and grass are worth more than 30,000 taels of gold.
"Hey, it's not that Tai doesn't want to go, it's really that the Zhen family has helped Tai a lot, when the first batch of 300,000 people went north to Yuyang, the Zhen family alone gave out nearly 30,000 truckloads of grain and grass, hollowing out all the grain of the Zhen family in Zhao State, if you go to ask again, Tai really can't say it." Liu Tai sat on the mat helplessly, shook his head and said.
"The lord doesn't have to be so mindful, as long as the lord obtains the power of Youzhou and gives the Zhen family a special treatment, can't he return the favor this time? Besides, there is no male in the main vein of the Zhen family at the moment, only three young ladies are waiting for the word boudoir, the youngest of which is only three years old, the lord is the son-in-law of the Zhen family, why not take advantage of the situation to take all the three young ladies into the bag, said that the first merchant in the world in the future is the main thing in the hands of the lord, and the meal on the plate. Zhang Fei said with a lewd smile, since he said that he wanted Liu Tai to eat the three-year-old boy Zhen Mi in his mouth, this... It's too.
"Uh..."Liu Tai's mouth was like swallowing a fly, this way, as long as the woman who was a little too good, Zhang Fei tried his best to match, if Liu Tai ignored it, Zhang Fei led people to abduct the women among the homeless people to Liu Tai as a maid, as a warm bed, it can be said that it took all the effort.
"Stinky boy, you're ruthless!!" Liu Tai's eyes glared at Zhang Fei with "fierce", and he gritted his teeth and said: "You kid doesn't want to marry a three-year-old doll like this, if you want, Lao Tzu can find you a lot of them." ”
Zhang Fei raised his head proudly and said: "My wife Zhang Fei doesn't need to worry about the lord, if I see something satisfied, I will rob it myself..."
"Huh??" All the generals present were dumbfounded, this Zhang Fei, his wife is ready to grab it, it's really amazing.
"Huh?" Liu Tai nodded, a trace of an inexplicable smile hung on the corner of his mouth, it turned out that he remembered that it was recorded in the history books that Zhang Fei robbed the road halfway to be his wife when Xiahou Yuan's daughter left the pavilion, and the two daughters born to Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan's daughter successively became the queen of the queen of Shu Han, which shows her beauty.
"Wait, what did you kid say just now?" Liu Tai shook his head amusedly, and suddenly said with a stunned expression.
"What do you say?" The second monk who was present was confused, and looked at Liu Tai with a depressed face, and Zhang Fei asked out loud.
"That's it, that's it, yes, it's to give the Zhen family some benefits in Youzhou, hahaha, I thought of it, I thought of it." Liu Tai stood up with great joy and said with a spring breeze on his face: "Prepare the horse, this general will immediately go to Zhen's house to meet his father-in-law!" ”
"The lord wants to go to Zhongshan Wuji to be hired?" Zhang Fei stepped forward with a smile on his face and asked.
"Get out," Liu Tai scolded with a smile and said, "This general is going to Yecheng to meet the head of the Zhen family directly to discuss important matters. ”
"Oh... I heard that Xiao Zhen Mi is also in Yecheng..."Xu Chu on the side also learned from Zhang Fei's example, and stepped forward to squeeze his eyebrows and said.
