Wish?

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing the meaning of Yu Jin's words.

Zhao Shilang coughed twice and asked, "How can the prince give hope to these people?" ”

"Let me ask Lord Zhao first, how many people are gathered in the Western District now?"

Zhao Shilang knew this data well and immediately said: "As of yesterday, there are about 28,000 people. ”

"And what about the East End?"

Zhao Shilang's face was embarrassed: "The number of people in the Eastern District is not easy to register, and people will die of epidemics every day......"

Several local officials quietly wiped their eyes.

Qianhe County is a large county, with a population of more than 50,000, but now a ground movement and the epidemic have lost half of the population.

These are all living people.

"I have asked the doctor, and the incubation period of the epidemic is about half a month. It has been more than ten days since the epidemic was first discovered, and those who first arrived in the Eastern District are not a few days away, so why not select hundreds of people to camp outside the city to temporarily settle down, so as to appease the people? In this way, after passing the incubation period safely, the people of the West Side can be released from the city. ”

After the incubation period, they could be released from the city without an attack, and these officials also planned to do the same, but they were not prepared to release a person in advance in order to be sure, which made the confrontation between the victims and the imperial court more and more tense.

Although Zhao Shilang felt that it was not easy for a prince to think about the people so much, he thought that Yu Jin's proposal was a bit naïve, and shook his head and said: "Now that there are nearly 30,000 people in the Western District, has the prince ever thought about how to elect hundreds of people?" Choose one out of a hundred, which one is better, and which one is better? Instead of suffering from inequality, the people who were not selected will be resentful, and the scene may be even more chaotic than it is now. ”

"There is a good truth that there is no shortage but inequality, so any artificial choice will not be convincing." Yu Jin said calmly.

"Then the prince means-"

Yu Jin glanced at everyone with a smile and spit out two words: "Draw lots." ”

Drawing?

Everyone looked at each other with strange expressions.

Such a serious matter of the draw?

Yu Jin looked at everyone's expressions coldly, and sneered in his heart.

What happened to the draw? He's drawn by lot!

Whoever dares to be foolish with these people, he will directly tell what the emperor Lao Tzu has done, and see if they dare to say a word more.

Fortunately, although these officials felt that the lottery was not serious enough, after careful consideration, they felt that it was more feasible than other methods.

Draw lots to decide your fate, hand over your fate to Providence, and you can't complain if you are not chosen.

Although I think the solution is feasible, there are still too many details to discuss.

One local official couldn't help but say, "If you draw lots, how should you draw them?" Tens of thousands of people lined up to draw lots, and the order was inconsistent, and there was also injustice, right? In addition, although these tens of thousands of people are gathered in the western district, they are also divided into areas, and they are strictly forbidden to wander on weekdays, so as not to come into contact with the epidemic latent and cause wider infection. If you bring all these people together, the likelihood of contracting the epidemic is greatly increased......"

Yu Jin nodded, agreeing with the official's words.

Of course, it was the second half that he agreed with.

There is a magic in the lottery, no matter the order of the draw, the probability of drawing is the same, but ordinary people think that the probability of drawing first will be greater, and he is not ready to spend more time explaining to these people on this.

As for officials' arguments that tens of thousands of people coming together would increase the likelihood of contracting the disease, that is.

"It's really not appropriate to get together and draw lots. Lord Zhao, how many areas have the people gathered in the West District divided? ”

"Five districts, five or six thousand people each. These five or six thousand people were divided into teams, and the teams were divided into groups to facilitate management. ”

"How many people are in a group?"

Zhao Shilang looked at the county order of Qianhe County.

The county magistrate of Qianhe County looked at his subordinates again.

The subordinate hurriedly said: "One divided into six teams, each team is divided into ten groups, and each group is about 100 people. ”

Yu listened carefully and couldn't help but change his opinion of these officials.

The official who really does practical things is more experienced than a layman like him.

It was originally a mess of tens of thousands of disaster victims, but after this division, it can almost be managed like a health center.

It's just that it is much more difficult for the agitated people to get together than the soldiers, and the officers and soldiers who are fighting for the disaster have a lot of errands to do, and there are not enough people to manage the victims, so there are so many riots.

Yu Jin pondered for a while and said with a smile: "Your lords are so thoughtful, which makes Xiao Wang admire. ”

Everyone was unexpectedly praised and said: "The prince praised it falsely." ”

I have a good impression of Yu Jin in my heart.

It is also gratifying that the dignified prince can see their efforts in his eyes.

"Since the group has been carefully divided, it will be easy to do, each group can be selected by drawing lots, fair and just, Tong Su is not bullied, no one has anything to say."

Zhao Shilang pinched his fingers and calculated: "Each group elects one person, each district is sixty people, and the five districts are exactly three hundred people......"

Everyone exchanged glances with each other.

It seemed feasible to elect three hundred men out of the city.

"After the three hundred people left the city, they gathered outside the city, and it should be no problem for the imperial court to temporarily take charge of the food and drink management of these people, right?"

Knowing that these officials are not all wine bags and rice bags, Yu Jin's words are a little more polite.

Comparing his heart to his heart, everyone noticed his politeness, and his favor rose a lot.

King Yan is really much stronger than the crown prince......

Zhao Shilang muttered: "It's no problem to manage three hundred people. ”

Yu Jin smiled: "These three hundred people are equivalent to giving the people in the city a hope." With this hope, they can wait instead of starting one conflict after another. ”

Everyone couldn't help nodding their heads, agreeing with Yu Jin's proposal.

"There is one more thing, Xiao Wang wants to remind you."

"Lord Wang, please speak." Everyone said in unison.

"Between the East and the West, there is a need for a tougher blockade. Today, the three of them should have come out of the eastern district, and they mixed with the people of the western district without being examined by a doctor, and once there were sick people, the consequences would be unimaginable. ”

Zhao Shilang smiled bitterly: "Manpower is tight, there will always be fish that slip through the net......"

Yu Jin was silent.

Some things are not taken for granted, and he can only remind them as much as possible.

"According to the prince's proposal, first pacify the people in the city."

In the afternoon, Shen Zheng, Yu Jin, Zhao Shilang and others appeared on the city wall on time.

More people flocked to the gates of the city, staring with eager eyes at the young men standing on the walls.

As Yu Jin raised his hand, the chaotic scene fell silent.

After listening to Yu Jin's talk about drawing lots in groups to determine those who left the city, the scene became chaotic for a while.

Yu Jin raised his hand again, waited for the scene to calm down, and said, "Xiao Wang is stupid, this is already the best way I can come up with." If you are not satisfied, please calm down and wait for the adults to discuss and come up with a better solution. ”

When the people heard this, they couldn't help but be anxious.

Waiting for those officials to come up with a good solution? It's better to wait for the sow to go up the tree!

"We do!" People shouted.
