513: Stability Maintenance!

Yu San sent someone to leave Wuhe County to find Master Cui.

Now there are more than 40,000 displaced people outside Wuhe County.

40,000 people can eat, drink, and Lazar can be provided, but these people are prone to trouble when they are idle every day, and they are idle anyway, so why not do something?

The imperial court provided food and medical treatment for the sick homeless, and these were the things that were supposed to be.

After entering October, even the southern region is getting colder and colder day by day, and some homeless people are still fleeing with cold clothes, and some are empty-handed.

Jackets and quilts or something, the five princes are trying to figure out a way, but now they can only ensure the most basic survival problems first, and they can't take care of these.

It is unrealistic to donate used clothes by the people in the county like in Hongxian County, the number of displaced people outside Hongxian County at that time was small, and there were more than 40,000 displaced people in Wuhe County, how could the people in the county have so many used clothes to donate?

There are more people, and there are more materials needed, whether it is the fifth prince or Cheng Qing, when the materials are raised, they will give priority to the old and weak, they are the most vulnerable groups who need to be taken care of.

As for the young and strong among the homeless, those who have hands and feet can earn it by themselves.

When it's cold, don't want to sleep in a shack with wind leaks on all sides?

You can build a mud brick house.

Displaced people outside the city can apply for a small plot of land to build a house in Wuhe County, and the cost of buying the land is allowed to be paid within three years.

If you want to stay and settle in Wuhe County after the disaster, you must pay this fee, and if you want to leave Wuhe County and return to your hometown after the disaster, you don't have to give the money to buy land...... The mud brick hut is not worth much, and it is okay to make a temporary transition for a year or two, and it is not a long-term solution to live in a long-term situation that cannot withstand the wind and rain.

There is a plan for the place to apply for building a house, and there are regulations on how big the place a family can apply for.

Cheng Zhixu felt that Cheng Qing was wasting manpower, these mud houses were outside Wuhe County, and as soon as the army of scarf thieves arrived, they would be destroyed in the war!

Cheng Qing smiled: "The lower officials thought that the counterinsurgency was to send troops to Huainan and Haozhou to recapture the state capital occupied by the scarf thieves. ”

How can that work.

This can be a place for the imperial court to contain the homeless, or a place for the counterinsurgency army to be stationed, but it can't be a place where the two armies are fighting!

The materials for disaster relief are all in Wuhe County, and tens of thousands of displaced people are also in Wuhe County, even Cheng Qing, a layman, knows that Wuhe is the rear of the counterinsurgency, and if it is affected by the war, the loss of the imperial court will be too great!

Cheng Zhixu is not distressed about the mud house built by the displaced people, but in fact, he thinks that Cheng Qing is a waste of manpower, there are tens of thousands of displaced people outside the city, and he can completely build Wuhe County into a strong fortress.

The city walls can be built higher, the moat can be dug wider, and the imperial court will feed these displaced people, so naturally they will be rewarded with their labor!

"This official remembers that this is still the method proposed by Master Cheng when he was in the Qing Dynasty, and he used work for relief."

Cheng Zhixu reminded Cheng Qing.

The uncle and nephew were tense, and they almost quarreled in front of the five princes again.

Cheng Qing praised: "Lord Shilang has a good memory, thank you Lord Shilang for his recognition of the lower officials, but at this time, the situation in Wuhe County is very different from Linqing, Linqing is still far away from Huainan, the scarf thief will not attack Linqing, Wuhe County and Huainan are next to each other, the scarf thief is afraid that he always wants to spy on the situation in Wuhe County, let the displaced people build the city wall, and place traps is a trivial matter. ”

Cheng Zhixu didn't speak.

This is indeed risky.

Cheng Zhixu can't guarantee that there are no scarf thieves among the homeless people just because he is in opposition to Cheng Qing.

The fifth prince played a round game, "Master Cheng has other suggestions, you might as well talk about it!" ”

Cheng Qing doesn't sell it either.

Wuhe is a county, in later generations, Cheng Qing has no impression of this place, time and space are different, the geographical environment is the same, the name "Wuhe" is derived, isn't it because there are Huai, Hu, Huan, Tong, Tuo five waters converge here, water resources are abundant, why can't it be developed?

Cheng Qing found out the Wuhe County Chronicles, and asked the local officials, and found that Wuhe County is often flooded in the rainy season because the five rivers are connected!

Now that there is so much labor available outside the city, and this year there is another drought, and the water levels of the five rivers are dropping, revealing the dry riverbed, such a good opportunity, it should be dredged and the embankment should be fixed! The silt removed from the bottom of the river is a good material for fertilizing fields, and it can also be used as a raw material for building mud brick houses.

"If the counterinsurgency is put on for a long time, we will use the rear stronghold of Wuhe County for a long time, and the river will be unobstructed, which will be beneficial to us. Even if the counterinsurgency is short, dredging and strengthening the embankment will be very beneficial to Wuhe County, and it will not be troubled by floods in the coming year. ”

If the spies of the scarf thieves are hidden among the homeless, they will all be sent to clear the dredging and strengthen the embankment.

Cheng Qing said this suggestion, but others didn't react, and Wuhe Zhixian almost hugged Cheng Qing's thigh and called Dad.

After the rebellion in Huainan was quelled, the five princes and Cheng Qing and others were gone, and the displaced people were also gone, leaving such great achievements.

The magistrate not only wants to hold Cheng Qing's leg and call his father, at this moment, Cheng Qing is the father of Wuhe Zhixian!

Usually, Cheng Qing and others spoke in front of the five princes, and the magistrate of Wuhe was not qualified to intervene, and at this time, the magistrate didn't care about anything else, and said a big call to support Cheng Qing, hoping that the five princes would agree to Cheng Qing's proposal.

Cheng Qing said: "Let the displaced people build mud brick houses on their own, so that their hearts are stable, so that they will not be easily instigated by the scarf thief...... If you don't care, you probably feel that you don't have to spend the winter in Wuhe County. ”

The real homeless people must have to spend the winter in Wuhe County, and if they can't go back to their hometowns, they will say that there is relief from the imperial court here, so where will they go if they don't stay in Wuhe County?

Only the spies of the scarf thieves do not need to consider the problem of winter, they burn, kill and loot, and they wish to grab Wuhe County together, how can they be in the mood to earn some wages with their hands to buy jackets and quilts, repair houses and cast houses, and slowly settle a "home" in Wuhe County!

Cheng Qing suggested that Yu San liked it the most.

It is Yu San's duty to find spies, Yu San felt that Cheng Qing was helping him, and he made up a bunch of details in his brain to steal fun.

In addition to Cheng Zhixu's opposition at the beginning, Cheng Qing's proposal was even approved by Governor Shi, and naturally it was also approved by the five princes.

Sure enough, as soon as this measure was promulgated, the displaced people outside the city, who were afraid of the outbreak of the epidemic, were immediately diverted from their attention and began to discuss the construction of houses in full swing.

Earning money by dredging and fixing embankments is slow, but it's also a hope.

The land for repairing the house can be owed on credit, the mud brick is mud and straw, etc., stirred into the mold to dry and shape, there is no straw with other weeds, and the mud is everywhere, no money is needed, as long as manpower.

The young and strong can go to the dredging and strengthening embankments to earn wages, save up to buy clothes and daily necessities, and the old and weak can stay at home and slowly make mud bricks.

The displaced people have been in a depressed and frightened atmosphere for a long time, but now they feel that the days are rushing, and the depressed atmosphere has been alleviated a lot!

And although most of the homeless people have no money, a small number of homeless people are in the money when they flee the famine, everyone does not dare to take out the money when they are hungry, and now other homeless people have a way to earn wages, and this part of the homeless people who have hidden the money also dare to take out the money a little bit!

Money is money if it is circulated, and if it is not circulated, it is a cold dead thing, Cheng Qing feels that she can't go to war, but when it comes to business and finance or something, she is probably better than the officials of Dawei...... If you are not convinced, let's do arithmetic problems, how many officials are good at arithmetic?
