Three days later, word of the mine had spread, and many people in their families had gone out to work in the mine to look for their loved ones.

As long as you can see a little bit of something in your belongings and tell that you have your own family, even if you come back with a handful of ashes for burial.

What's more, some people who went there before said that as long as it is proved that there is indeed such a person, the government will also give some money to settle down.

Regardless of whether this news is true or not, people cannot be resurrected after death, and those who are alive must work hard to live. With the burial money, there is also some comfort in the sorrow.

And this silver, it is said that the Lord Zhizhou opened the treasury of the state government and took out all the remaining silver and distributed it to the people. I heard that those officials are constantly complaining, and they are afraid that they will only have money for the New Year, and there will be no money for killing pigs for the New Year.

This kind of words made the people's hearts more comfortable, seeing that they were usually arrogant and always cared about their official errands, everyone walked a lot brisker.

They are all glad that Hongzhou, the Lord of Zhizhou, is fortunately a noble son, and his family is not short of money, so he can't look down on this little silver. Otherwise, those ordinary officials may not only not give them burial expenses, but also have to give the government money when the body is identified.

It's a pity that this Lord Zhizhou, but because he looks too good-looking, he was taken by the evil ghost history who has a backer in the capital. On weekdays, he either beats or scolds, and pulls and pulls him in broad daylight, making it clear that he wants the overlord to take the bow.

Otherwise, a person like Lord Zhizhou is enough to marry a princess, but now he is occupied by such wicked people.

Zhuang Rou didn't have to go out to inquire, Chu Xia would also pick up some rumors that praised herself and told her, naturally she knew that she was now bullying women and men.

She didn't care about this kind of circulation, she just looked at Chu Xia, who had been happy, unpleasantly, "My lord, you took out all the silver from the auction of grapes and buried those people, what will the homeless people eat in the future?" ”

"Rest assured, the mine has been cleared and can be repaired in a few days. When the time comes, some of the displaced people will be sent there to start construction, and the road will have to be built to Hongzhou, and people will need to do it. Chu Xia said indifferently.

"There are a lot of people, and there will definitely be bad food in the mountains, so there will be people who will sell some food, and there will be people who will sell groceries and so on. To open a shop in the mountains, you need a porter to transport things from the city. I also issued an order to open up farmland on the Hongzhou land boundary 50 miles around the mine, exempt from tax for three years, and provide grain seeds. ”

He smiled with confidence, and when the time comes, it will be prosperous and become a large mining county. As long as you dig up a piece of land and come out, it is your own, where is there such a beautiful thing in other places, and those places are not exempt from taxes.

Zhuang Rou looked at him deeply, "That forest can't grow rice when it blooms out of the field, and where do the adults get the grain seeds, do you want them to plant all beans and sweet potatoes?" ”

Chu Xia finally seized the opportunity and said to her fiercely, "Otherwise, what do you want to plant?" These things can also be filled, at most farts a little more. They don't go to the Hall of Elegance, what does it matter. I can't eat rice, and I can't eat meat. ”

"Bah, you're right about this kind of thing, I'm not a person like you who doesn't distinguish between grains and grains. It's just that you can get the money in the early stage? Don't let people work without pay, and you can't let people hold iron ore as food. ”

Chu Xia scratched his face, and was unwilling to answer this question directly, he pointed to the side and said: "Isn't there still Prince An, before they leave, just ask Yang Qinghua to become a Jiangyang thief and steal all his valuable goods." ”

"Anyway, this king has a way, you can immediately turn things into cash, you don't have to worry about silver, this king has a way."

Zhuang Rou glanced at the wall, and that was the residence of the princess.

After Zhou Zhongren and Zhou Zhongyi's bodies were transported back, it was Prince An who Chu Xia had seen in the past. I don't know what he said, Wang Ye, who usually keeps shouting for trivial things, didn't shout out loud when he saw the bodies of his two grandsons.

The subordinates guarding the door thought that he would die alive on the spot, and waited to go in to save people, but in the end they only received an order from the prince to send the bodies of the two sons back to the capital first. After all, he is just a grandfather, and the body still has to be handed over to his son and daughter-in-law.

I didn't expect Prince An to be so calm in major matters, and everyone's opinion of him changed, and they all felt that Prince An was not unable to do things, but he didn't have a chance to give him. Look at it now, his grandson was killed, and he is still so calm, he can't do anything big with this mind!

However, everyone always feels that after King An is so quiet, he looks a lot older. The women don't play anymore, they don't drink anymore, they sit there all day and meditate, and it's a little scary to look at.

Zhuang Rou always felt that he should be afraid of something, otherwise he should go back with his grandson's corpse, the injury on his belly is no longer a big problem, why are you still staying here.

As for King Baojun's injury, under Chu Xia's instructions, it was good and bad, and after his condition stabilized, he was sent to the capital, and no one could save him.

Therefore, there was no need for Prince An to stay in Hongzhou, but he only sent his grandson's body back, and Zhuang Rou felt that he didn't dare to go back.

Why didn't she dare to go back, she didn't know, so she took this opportunity to simply ask, "My lord, why didn't Prince An go back, what was he afraid of?" ”

Chu Xia thought about it, picked something that could tell her, and said: "Of course I'm afraid, whoever asked the Falcon Sect to send the Mu clan to kill his grandson, he was afraid of who." Probably saw something that shouldn't be seen, but it was just for the sake of the old guy that he didn't make any mistakes, so he didn't come to ask for his life. ”

He smiled and said, "Little monster, you have to remember." There are more things in the court than the most chaotic disputes, but it is also particularly interesting, every step is a gamble, and one wrong step may be the loss of all your net worth and life. ”

"Then you're still having fun in there, are you living too long?" Zhuang Rou asked, he still had the face to remind others that he didn't know what he was doing all day, as if he was trying to drill into the strife.

Chu Xia said in surprise: "No, I didn't go in at all, I just honestly became a parent official in a state." It's not that God doesn't allow me to bring so many people here, otherwise there would be trouble for me. ”

"Hmph." Zhuang Rou rolled her eyes and snorted, it's strange to believe him.

When the two were chatting nonsense, Xiao Ran suddenly came to report, "My lord, a small village was robbed last night. Killed five civilians, robbed all the money and food, and according to the villagers, dressed like homeless. ”

"Tongzhi has sent people over to check, and the villagers angrily drove away the surrounding homeless people, and there were several conflicts."

When Zhuang Rou heard this, she immediately stood up, "I'll go and see first." ”

She frowned and thought as she walked, now the homeless people still have the daily food provided by the government, and they are not hungry to this point, and the robbers must be bandits who fish in troubled waters.

These people must be caught immediately, otherwise they will bring some displaced people who are ready to move, and then the situation will be difficult to control.
