Lin Yan walked out of Gu Yanzhang's official hall with sweat on his head, returned to his own public hall, and summoned his subordinates to discuss for a long time.

Half a month later, he sat opposite Gu Yanzhang and reviewed the methods discussed for a while in front of this general judge.

Gu Yanzhang listened to it and asked, "You have drawn half of the manpower in Xiatou County, if something happens in the county, who will take care of it?" ”

Lin Yan said: "Let the county recruit strong and brave, and prepare in advance." ”

Gu Yanzhang shook his head and said, "It's the turn of autumn and winter, if it's autumn, it's the time of farming, how can you recruit strong courage, don't act like this." ”

Lin Yan opened his mouth, and after a while, he said: "General judgment, when encountering displaced people, the state can only be appeased, not persuaded to leave, but these archers and patrol shops, tens of thousands of people at a time, are still not easy to manage, you just kill the lower officials, there is no way!" ”

He cried bitterness in his mouth, and bitterness in his heart.

It's not that I don't want to behave in front of the new general judge, but there is really no way to behave, and if I can't do it, I can't do it, or I can't call the capital eunuch in Kyoto Prefecture, and I can't use such a small number of people to control the tens of thousands of people who suddenly have an extra disaster.

Gu Yanzhang said: "You don't want to treat the displaced people as if they came today and left tomorrow, and think about what if you want to leave people in the state over February next year." ”

Lin Yan was stunned when he heard this.

Gu Yanzhang said more clearly, and said: "At that time, I will set up a camp outside the city to temporarily calm the displaced people, and you can recruit strong warriors in the state, form a guard, and patrol the streets." ”

"Most of the displaced people come from Fuzhou, and there are also those from other prefectures, because of the locust plague, they will inevitably become villages and townships, and they must know each other, so you can assign people according to their hometowns, villages and counties, demarcate places in the camp, select Baojia, give money and goods every month, and use the displaced people to control the displaced people."

He briefly raised his head, and said: "As soon as the displaced people arrive, the state will definitely open a warehouse to release grain, you can put up a list in the camp, if every half a few districts are very stable, do not cause trouble, and do not commit adultery, then increase the amount of grain and rice in the middle of the state, and if there is anything wrong, reduce it as appropriate." ”

Lin Yan was a little thoughtful.

Although he is not a capable person, he will not be mentioned to this position, and he does not know how to act.

Fuzhou is a plague of locusts and drought, which is different from the flood, most of them are in the same village and township, and eight out of ten of these victims are acquaintances with each other, as long as they find the right people to manage the town, even if there are 20,000 or 30,000 people, in fact, it will not be too chaotic.

Moreover, if the displaced people were placed outside the city according to Gu Tong's intentions, and a special camp was set up for them to settle down, and it was set up in a partition, it would be easier to manage.

He thought for a moment and asked, "I'm not afraid of the daytime, but I'm afraid that something is wrong in the city at night......"

Gu Yanzhang didn't care what the other party asked or what questions he asked, hearing Lin Yan say this, he said without embarrassment: "There are too many people in the camp outside the city, I will be in the capital, please set a curfew." ”

Ganzhou is not Yanzhou, not in front of the battle, not Sichuan, in the civil unrest, like many other states and counties in the Great Jin Dynasty, there is no curfew here.

But if it is a homeless person crossing the border, for the sake of public security, Gu Yanzhang is not afraid to go to the court and ask for a curfew.

He pointed out a few more key points, and ordered Lin Yan to talk back in a few days before sending the other party out.

Xu Ming and Liu Lin had been waiting outside the door for a long time, and it was easy to let Lin Yan go, so they knocked on the door and walked in one after another.

Xu Ming went back and forth about the new camp outside the city, while Liu Lin came to report on the exploration of the streets and dark wells in the city.

"Lu Yi has already drawn all the dark well maps, and we have also found a few other well masters to help check and fill in the gaps, there are many culverts in the city, but they are not connected in one place, they are very scattered, and now they have been drawn one by one."

Liu Lin said as he handed a large drawing in his hand to Gu Yanzhang, and said: "The materials in the state treasury have also been counted, and after the last general judgment was explained, the brick kiln on the side of Dongqiao Mountain has already begun to burn bricks, and now it has more than 30,000 pieces, and only when the manpower is in place, he can start digging the ditch." ”

Ganzhou is rainy every summer, there has always been a big year and a small year, when the big year, the water depth in the city is close to the zhang, the shallow place of the water is not over the knees of people, when the year is small, it can also reach the waist of people, it can be said that it is a problem every year.

As early as when Gu Yanzhang came here to visit in the same season, he heard Cen Zhuang talk about it, and he experienced it himself, so he planned to treat the flood in Ganzhou.

At the beginning, he had two plans, one was to build a dam in Huichang or Ganxian County, and the other was to build a culvert in the city of Ganzhou. After weighing the two phases, the final decision was made to build a culvert.

When the culvert rainwater is less, it can be discharged directly into the Ganjiang River outside the city, and when the flood comes, it can accumulate water flow to alleviate the flood of the Ganjiang River.

Liu Lin and Xu Ming ran away with the officials for several months, Liu Lin's family had some ability, he relied on others to invite a number of old officials in the Si Tian Prison who had already been to the office, and helped draw drawings according to the situation of the streets in Ganzhou, and found out the well master, and found out the dark well in the city, so as not to accidentally dig the well when repairing the canal.

Now everything is finally ready, only the east wind is owed.

"According to the drawings, the culvert in this Ganzhou city must be repaired for at least dozens of miles, if it is levied and requisitioned, there are no thousands of people who spend several years of hard work, I am afraid that it will not even be able to come out......"

Liu Lin was born in the Ya Nei, and he was somewhat familiar with the situation in the DPRK and China, and when it came to manpower, he was a little hesitant, and couldn't help but say what he thought in his heart.

"If you want to build it within two years, for the sake of insurance, it is best to levy two or three thousand people, but if you build a canal, it will disturb the people, and if you do such a thing, the DPRK and China will definitely be impeached severely......

"If you don't levy a lot of conscription, only slow down the cultivation, when you are in office, you will definitely not be able to cultivate, and after you leave office, who knows who the successor is, and whether you will continue to cultivate."

"If the work is stopped, no matter how hard it is now, it will all turn into ashes, but if it continues to be built and it becomes a thing, it will be counted on the head of the successor."

There was some disbelief and regret in his tone.

Repair ditches and canals, do a good job, this is a century-old foundation, but relying on this, he can get an official body to do, it is rare to have such an opportunity, the people in Ganzhou in the past are not invisible, why don't they do it?

It's not because of the attribution of merit.

It's really impossible to advance or retreat.

If you want to build a ditch, you have to levy conscription, and if you want to be impeached, you will not be able to repair it nine times out of ten. There are fewer people who can be requisitioned, and if they can't do it during their term of office, they must leave the credit to the next office.

Who would do such a stupid thing?

If there is no merit, Liu Lin is unwilling to do it. He doesn't enjoy it at home, he comes to work with the general judgment of a newly appointed official, not just for an official body!

If he works hard for two or three years and can't make anything, he will never do such a loss-making business!
