Chapter 236: Li Xinzhi Western Regions (2)
"That's not something we're thinking about." Xue Ju shook his head and was about to speak, when suddenly a subordinate walked in and whispered a few words in his ear, Xue Ju said with a smile: "You two don't know!" At this time, the Metropolitan Governor is still playing in the streets! I'm afraid that the matter of the Western Regions has already been asserted, so why should we worry? Now that you're here, let's have fun today. I bought a few dancing girls from the Central Plains, and we're here to watch them today. Xue Ju clapped his hands, and saw a few dancing girls walking in with a gust of fragrant wind, graceful, white and beautiful, and really not comparable to women in the Northwest. He Zhi and Salha nodded again and again, and the hall suddenly fell into a beautiful dance.
"Keming, how about it, do you see if there are a lot more vendors in the market recently?" Li Xin and Du Ruhui were wearing robes and walking on the streets of Jincheng with satisfied expressions on their faces.
"That's true, it's still the Governor of the Metropolis who is wise, at the beginning, everyone was against the Governor's tax policy, but now in just two months, there are a lot more vendors in the market, all because of the Governor's merits." Du Ruhui also nodded and said, "Even the market is much cleaner." There is no smell of ** urine in the past. ”
Du Ruhui's favorite is Li Xin's policy of "clean golden city", ordering the soldiers to dig sewers, so that all kinds of dirty water and sewage flow into the Yellow River, although Lanzhou has fewer rainy days, but according to the appearance of Lanzhou in the past, I am afraid that it will not be dirty.
"If it weren't for your help, Lanzhou today wouldn't be what Mr. said." Li Xin said sincerely. In Li Xin's mind, although there are many kinds of whimsical ideas, but someone has to implement them, whether it is Du Ruhui or Pei Shiju are outstanding talents, even Hao Yuan, Chu Liang and others are also talented in guarding the county, and Cui Yuan and Cui Xiu can also do a long history and the like, as for Xu Jin, he is all rooted in his great cause of Tuntian, retired veterans from the army, some join the military academy and teach new soldiers, and some are scattered around Lanzhou, joining the militia construction, participating in training for soldiers in their spare time, and serving the people when they are busy, Join the Tuntian and strengthen the Western Army.
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." Du Ruhui suddenly thought of something, and said: "The first batch of prisoners escorted in Shandong has arrived in Jincheng, and it seems that those people in the DPRK and China are eager to send all the criminals from all over the world, so they are not so active in immigrating." ”
"The people are the foundation of the country, and if those great families lose their people, no matter how much fertile land they have, no one will cultivate it, but the bandits are the source of trouble, and these people are eager to send them all over and come to me for trouble." Li Xin said indifferently: "It's just that they didn't think that these bandits may have been honest people a few months ago, and it was because they were desperate that they became bandits." As long as they are given good land, their rights and interests are maintained, and they are allowed to fill their stomachs, there will be no rebellion. ”
"It is a blessing for the Western Regions that the Metropolitan Governor has such a mind." Du Ruhui was also afraid that Li Xin would blindly use power in order to strengthen his rule in the Western Regions, but he didn't expect that Li Xin would also have a benevolent and benevolent side.
"Our tuntian continued, the first three years were exempt from taxes, and then the grain was levied according to the rules of the imperial court. Not only that, but we also have to persuade those landlords and powerful people to reduce rents and interest rates, and only when the common people below us become rich, will our strength become stronger. Li Xin said as he walked.
"According to the general's industry, we can still support it in three years, but if we want those powerful people to reduce rent and interest, I'm afraid it's not that simple." Du Ruhui said with some worry: "If this matter reaches the Central Plains, I'm afraid it will be bad for the general." ”
"Keming, the rivers and mountains are as big as a boat, and those ordinary people are like water, this water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat. The family is just some planks on the ship, once the planks are broken, they can be replaced with a piece, if there is no water, is the boat still useful? Although Li Xin is Li Shimin's enemy, he has to admit that Li Shimin's words make sense, of course, after all, I don't know if he can do it.
"The general woke up his subordinates with a word." Du Ruhui's face changed, and he sighed: "No wonder I received a document from Zhang Xutuo in Shandong not long ago, which said that the people of Shandong have been suffering for a long time, which has made the smoke in Shandong everywhere, and there are many thieves, and he is also tired of running for his life, and he also smiled and said that if the Western Regions are not good in the future, it will be another Shandong, and the thieves in Shandong have been sent to the Western Regions." ”
"Zhang Xutuo? It's a pity for this person. A brave general, although he can't be said to be like a god with soldiers, but under his command, he doesn't know how many bandits have been exterminated. But such a person should have been powerful in other races, but now he can only suppress bandits in Shandong, and it is a pity that his own people deal with his own people. Li Xin knows that Zhang Xutuo can be said to be a capable person, but unfortunately he doesn't know how this person died in the end.
"The government is like this, why should the general worry alone?" Du Ruhui said persuadingly.
"Who are they escorting criminals? From Shandong to the Western Regions, thousands of miles away, at least it will take more than half a year to arrive, well, calculate carefully, I'm afraid I will set off before the year! Li Xin suddenly had a trace of interest, and said: "I'm afraid that the person who can preside over this matter is not simple, Keming, General Zhang Xutuo can say who escorted him?" ”
"It's Luo Shixin." Du Ruhan smiled and said, "Governor, why don't you go and see if this Luo Shixin is a legendary general?" ”
"Although the fierce general is good, it is a pity that it is not used by me, such a fierce general should gallop outside the plug. Now there is a shortage of generals in the northwest, although it is difficult to let Luo Shixin stay! Li Xin was a little disheartened and waved his hand. said: "Let's go, let's go and see it." Hey! What's going on up front? Someone is using force! ”
Li Xin was just about to set off, when suddenly there was a sound of gold and iron in the distance, Li Xin looked over, but saw that it was two horsemen fighting, one of them was heroic, holding a long lance, and the attack was strong and powerful, but there was still a trace of immaturity on his face; The person who fought with him had a fierce complexion, a tall figure, long fingers, and an extremely strong war horse under his crotch. Around him, there were also some subordinates wearing black power suits, Kong Wu powerful, shouting beside him.
"That person should be Xue Ju's son Xue Rengao, known as ten thousand enemies, with the courage of an overlord. Tsk, that young man is also extremely good, he can fight on a par with Xue Rengao, when did Jincheng have such a character. Du Ruhui saw the fierce young man, and immediately pointed at him and said.
"Bastard, fighting is not allowed in Jincheng City, don't you know? Let's go, go and see. Li Xin's face was gloomy and he snorted coldly. In fact, I was still very interested in the young man. He is a martial arts master himself, and he has a deep understanding of the two of them, and the strength of both of them is extremely strong, and every time he attacks, he has abandoned his skills and chose a more powerful path of reducing ten guilds with one force. Again, this is also a way to see the personalities of the two.
