Chapter 50: The Civil Affair of Taolin (II)
Subsequently, Wen Chou led people to explore the civil construction of Taolin one by one. There is no need to say that the people are grateful to Dade.
The civil withering, there are many desolate, Wen Chou did not bring any property when he came, he did not want to stay here for long, and the matter of millet seed was urgent, so he resigned from the homeless people and hurried back to the official temple.
"Wenjun, why are you in a hurry?" The farmers on both sides of the fields also noticed something strange and asked questions in their hearts. After some inquiry, I will know the reason. All praise its kindness.
"How does Wen Jun plan to raise grain, grass, and millet seeds?" Wang Chong asked cautiously.
"Well, the township has already made up once, and if you let people contribute again, it will be a little unsatisfactory. Alas. Wen Chou frowned tightly and said. After thinking about it, he said: "As for millet seeds, it's simple, I'll just buy some of them." ”
"Alas, Wen Jun's words are also in love, ordinary people's families do not have much surplus food, and they cannot be disturbed, but the rich families in the township have a lot of hoarding, so they can start from here." Wang Chong thought for a while. The first lieutenant of the township, who was in charge of taxation, had a good idea of the wealth of each household in the township. It's just that he is also a little bold, so to speak, isn't it just suggesting that Wen Chou take the surname of the rich to operate? If it spreads, it will offend those people severely.
Wen Scandal couldn't help but glance at Wang Chong in surprise, not wanting him to dare to say such a thing. After a moment of silence, he did not object, nor did he say that he agreed. I thought: "I also want to start with a big family, but just after the Lin clan was destroyed and the Wen Ji family was defeated, if I look for trouble from the rich and wealthy families, I am afraid that it will make people panic, which is extremely unfavorable to future management!" ”
Wang Chong saw Wen Chou's worried appearance, and he stopped talking when he wanted to speak, and he didn't dare to talk. I was even more apprehensive in my heart. I thought: "According to my observation in recent days, Wen Jun is a person who treats the poor and the poor well, and does not like to gather rich households, so he said this, but after seeing his uncertain complexion after hearing this, am I not mistaken?" ”
"Big brother, either in our middle again, call for it, and you can still make up seven or eight hundred stones." Wen Bace immediately stepped forward.
"Alas, Ziyong, since I was recruited by Duke Du, I have disturbed the people and elders a lot, and I am already ashamed, and I really can't open this mouth!" Wen Chou sighed.
"What is open, can't be opened, if you want me to say, we are all children of the Wen family, and the villagers will not blame you!" Wen Ba said with a grin.
"It's really a lack of people's hearts!" Wen Chou thought about it and couldn't help but laugh at himself and muttered. I thought, "If I had appeased some displaced people, I wouldn't have been so embarrassed!" They are all thinking about the autumn of troubled times, the more people the better, of course, this idea is also good, but there must also be enough food for these people to live! Otherwise, it would be just an empty word. ”
"Hmm、...... Popularity...... Tongue swallowing? Wen Ba was beside Wen Chou, heard this sentence, and questioned.
"It's nothing, let's go, go to the official temple first, repair the book and ask the county for some, if it doesn't work, then think of another way! There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat is naturally straight to the bridge! Wen Chou didn't need to explain a thing or two to him, so he was busy.
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge!" Wang Chong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said in his heart: "Although this statement is not a masterpiece, it can be described as a proverb, but the truth in it is an open-minded and calm attitude!" ”
In the Han Dynasty, poetry was just in the embryonic stage, that is, most of the poems were four-word poems, not to mention seven-word poems, five-word poems were carried forward by Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi father and son, who were known as "three Cao" in the history of literature, and only then were widely circulated and further became the main literary style for a while.
Wen Chou and his entourage rushed back to the official temple and discussed it with the officials who stayed in the official temple. The following plans were made: first, to go to the county and the county to ask for money, second, to mobilize the villagers to once again raise the big and rich people, of course, the focus is to make the displaced people dig ditches to facilitate farming, and to receive food according to their labor, and fourth, if the county's purchase rewards come, they will not be distributed for the time being, and will be used to purchase grain from neighboring counties.
In this way, Wen Chou revised the book three times in a row, which detailed the current situation of Shahe Township and the predicament. Sealed it, and ordered people to send it to the county, county and Luancheng Duyi respectively!
Du Yi's letter, the ugly words were extremely euphemistic, after all, Du Yi had a lot of inconvenience at the beginning of his tenure. Wen Chou and the others stood at the gate of the courtyard, and when they saw the three horses walking away, they were silent for a while. I don't know if I can ask for some, but in short, hope has been released.
Not to mention that Wen Chou and others are now standing quietly at the gate of the courtyard, just say that Wen Chou went to the peach forest shed with great interest in the past, and returned in a hurry, and what kind of repercussions were caused by the sad things all the way. And the scene that happened in the peach grove porridge shed soon spread all over Shahe Township. It's okay for the ordinary people, even if they are grateful for Wen Chou's kindness, they can't do it, and it is still difficult for their own stomach, let alone others.
But the people of the rich family are different, and there are many people who have heard about it, and they hurriedly ordered some offspring, extracted one or two hundred stones of fine grain, and sent it to the official temple. Rather than waiting for Wen Chou to come to the door to ask for it, it would be better to send it in person, no matter how much it is, second, it seems that it will come, and third, it shows goodwill.
Soon after Wen Chou and the others stood at the gate of the courtyard, the grain and grass of the rich families in the township were delivered, and everyone was amazed, and then there were people driving one after another.
Say not much, say less is not much, there are about 1,500 stones of grain and grass before and after, so that Wen Chou can't cry and laugh for a while, don't want it in vain, and if you don't want anyone's family, it will make the family feel uneasy, so they are all gentle words of encouragement, ask a little, and then let these descendants return.
Not only did they send grain and grass, but the matter of millet seeds was also solved by the way. Wen Chou was overjoyed, and changed the gloomy color when he returned.
"It seems that Wenjun is in the township, and Enwei has been established! Congratulations. Wang Chong looked at the side room full of grain and said.
"Congratulations to Wenjun!"
"Wenjun is virtuous and talented, and Ling Zai admires it!"
"Wenjun has both civil and military skills, I might as well too!"
……
At the beginning of Wang Chong, the township officials congratulated and complimented one after another. Wen Chou returned the salute one by one, and only said that he didn't dare to be, thanks to your great strength!
Seeing that the millet seed had been solved, Wen Chou did not delay, so he hurriedly searched for someone, stopped the equipment, and sent it to the porridge shed in the peach grove for distribution. And it is rumored: "All the displaced people who want to settle down can sow seeds of fake millet seeds, and cultivate the barren fields divided by the township!" He also said: "The displaced people do not have to worry about eating before the harvest, because after sowing, the people in the township will be mobilized to dig ditches and water conservancy, and all those who actively participate will have food!" ”
When the displaced people heard the news, many of them were grateful. In the autumn of troubled times, it is not easy to find a place to live, and there is such an order, dedicated to the people, what more can the husband ask for?
