Ji Qingling was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help asking, "That's it?" ”

Gu Yanzhang nodded and sighed: "It's really poor, Yanzhou has been fighting for several years, and the number of troops has increased more and more, in the past two years, the north and the south have not been peaceful, Jiaozhi has raised troops, Shuzhong is in turmoil, Guilin has a big flood last year, and Xiangzhou has moved again, which is a place to spend money." ”

As soon as he said this, Ji Qingling calculated in his heart, and he understood it for a while.

There is a fixed number of items in the court, and half of Thailand is taxed, but one is that the rain has not been adjusted in the past two or three years, and there have been bad years one after another; Second, natural disasters occur frequently, and there are many man-made disasters.

Yanzhou was already a place to burn money before the battle, and it was necessary to provide disaster relief, and then there was counterinsurgency, and the income was much less, but the expenses were several times more, so it was strange that there was surplus money.

Thinking about it this way, even Yang Kui is not enough for Yanzhou's pension money, Gu Yanzhang has a small general judgment, or in Ganzhou, a place that can't go up or down, although the flood is also serious, but compared to the fire eyebrows next to it, it can't be ranked at all, how can it be able to grab food.

"Looks like we're going to have to find the money ourselves." Ji Qingling frowned and said, "Since it is necessary to repair water conservancy, the treasury can support a little, Ganzhou is flooded every year, and the people suffer a lot, as long as a good student raises a chip in the state city, he can also get some." ”

She carefully pondered where she could make money, calculated it, thought of another one, and asked, "Fifth brother, even if the money is enough, how can the manpower do it?" Do you want to be conscripted again? ”

Building water conservancy sounds like just four words, but if it is to be done, it is not so simple.

It takes at least one or twenty people to build a house, not to mention the construction of water conservancy, not to mention the construction of water conservancy.

Even if the Ganzhou Prefecture raises money by itself, who should it find to build? Forced labor is not required.

"Although it's a good thing, if it disturbs the people a lot, it's not good, and the next thing is to be busy farming, and if you draw people out, it's troublesome to mistake farming......," Ji Qingling reminded.

Originally, the fifth brother wrote to ask for a delay in the payment of autumn grain, and asked for money, and he could already make the court and the central government think that he was greedy for merit, but if it was because the capital did not give money, his own family went to raise money, and he also carried out a large conscription, and eight or nine times out of ten the flood has not yet begun to be treated, he has already been impeached by the imperial history platform.

If the thing didn't work out, it was in vain to get into a commotion, which really outweighed the loss.

Gu Yanzhang nodded, he saw Ji Qingling biting his lip, looking preoccupied, he couldn't help but lean over, kissed her right cheek, and said softly: "It's not time for you to worry, I'll find a way, but I can't do it, I'll come to you again." ”

And he said, "It's so late, go to sleep." ”

Ji Qingling obediently said "oh", hugged Gu Yanzhang's arm, snuggled up to him, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Gu Yanzhang hugged Ji Qingling's shoulder, and only when he heard the breathing of the person in his arms gradually even, then he kissed her lips and tucked the corners of the quilt.

He closed his eyes and thought in his mind that he would not fall asleep until midnight.

Waking up early the next day, Gu Yanzhang dealt with some trivial matters, and then took people to Huichang and Ganxian to look at the banks of the Ganjiang River.

Ganzhou is located in the upper reaches of the Ganjiang River, is the confluence of the Zhangjiang River and the Gongjiang River, the water flow is turbulent, the water potential is huge, he took a closer look according to the guidance of the water conservancy officer in the state, and found that this place is indeed not suitable for building a dam.

When he returned to the state office, he handed over the matter of exploring the streets of the state city to Xu Ming and Sun Lin, and encouraged the well master Lu to move a few words, and then invited the governor of the state to come over.

The capital eunuch of Ganzhou is surnamed Lin, his name is Lin Yan, and he was born in the barracks.

He is more than 30 years old, he has only served two terms as a capital eunuch, his ability is average, and he is not conspicuous in Su Ri, at this moment, Gu Yanzhang was specially asked for inquiry, and hurriedly brought the situation of the patrol shop and archers in the state one by one, and added another sentence, saying: "Although the state is used to being quiet and quiet, there is no major event, but everyone is strictly trained in the sun, and they are all good sons and daughters, and they are not cheating and cheating." ”

After he finished speaking, he hurriedly said: "Next month is the time for the review, and the eighth day of the first lunar month has been set, and the general judge will be invited to supervise the inspection at that time." ”

Gu Yanzhang pondered for a while and asked, "If this year's summer and autumn season, there are displaced people passing by in the city, according to the manpower at this time, it may be controlled?" ”

Lin Yan's face changed slightly, and he asked cautiously: "General judgment, which part of the state has been affected?" ”

He couldn't help but mutter.

At this time, it was just summer, and it was still two or three months before autumn, but I had never heard of anything happening in any county.

can listen to Gu Tongju's tone, it is clear that he is not asking himself, but seems to be sure that in the autumn, there will inevitably be such a group of homeless people.

Gu Yanzhang said: "Fuzhou hits the north, there is a locust plague all the way, if there is no rain, it will be autumn early, and late autumn will be late, and the victims will go to Ganzhou." ”

Lin Yan's heart froze, and he hurriedly asked: "In previous years, when the disaster occurred, the displaced people all went to the capital, so did they not go to the capital, but also diverted to the south of the Yangtze River. ”

Gu Yanzhang took the map on the table, pointed to a place above Fuzhou, and said to Lin Yan: "These prefectures and counties are also experiencing drought this year, and the locust swarm is flying, I don't know what the situation is, most of them still have to fight Ganzhou to go through Jiangnan, or turn to Beijing." ”

Fuzhou has been in trouble for more than half a year, and the two states are not far from each other, and Lin Yan, as the governor of a state, naturally knows a lot about it.

In the past, he didn't think that this had anything to do with his own family, at most he sighed twice, and he was pitiful for a while, but at this time, when he heard Gu Yanzhang say this, and thought of the hundreds of thousands of people in Fuzhou, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Even if there is only one-tenth or twelve, there are tens of thousands of people, and the population in Ganzhou City is already quite large, and suddenly there are tens of thousands of displaced people, how much trouble will this cause?

It is true that the displaced people are disaster victims, but it does not mean that they are all good people, there are also thieves, and there are even hooligans and ruffians mixed in them, sweeping through the state city, coming today, leaving tomorrow, and they can't even manage it.

Don't say that those gangsters in Ganzhou City, taking this opportunity, have to fish in troubled waters and take advantage of the situation to make chaos.

Moreover, if there are really locusts along the way, if the locusts make a big noise, it is impossible to say that he is a good person, and he is also forced to become a thief by hunger.

Thinking of this, Lin Yan's face immediately became extremely ugly, and he only said: "According to the manpower in the state at this time, if there are three or five thousand displaced people, it can still be dealt with, and no matter how many people come, there will be no way, unless more people are added." ”

Gu Yanzhang shook his head and said: "There is a fixed number of patrols and archers in the state, and they can't be increased at will, you think about it, if there are more than 20,000 or 30,000 people in the city, how should you act to maintain stability." ”

When Lin Yan heard this, he immediately wanted to have a serious illness, ask for a long sick leave, and then come back to work after the homeless people left.
