Chapter 469: Thinking about it
In the afternoon, in the morning, Xin Kun did not stay in the mansion to read, but wore the boy's clothes found from the county government and went out shopping, this time letting Xiaopang and Fu Ji accompany her.
The streets of the border city are still the same as they saw in Seoul, the ground is full of mud, although the weather is cold, but it can't stop people from coming and going, everyone is stepping on the car, and the ground naturally can't bear to look directly. Even if Xin Kun was wearing small leather boots, he felt that he had nowhere to put his feet.
"Xiao He is really, and he didn't say that he would lay some sand and gravel on this road." Fu Ji also frowned, she didn't have little leather boots like Xiao Chubby, wearing straw boots, even if it was impermeable, but she was used to a clean and tidy avenue in Zhuangzi, how could she not be angry when she saw this like this.
"How can he have that time, besides, this is not our Zhuangzi, when the stone was laid, my mother felt that it was a waste of money. Xiao He is only in charge of guarding the city, where is there time to call people to repair roads, and let people learn to love cleanliness. "Xiaopang is very used to it, they have traveled all over the 14 provinces of North Korea this year, and the more they know about various places, the more they have a sense of pride, and they feel that their Zhuangzi is really different everywhere.
"It's so cold, the streets are so stinky, what should I do in the summer?" Fuki couldn't help but retort.
"What can I do, just do it!" Chubby gave Fu Ji a roll of his eyes, and raised his eyes to see that Xin Kun was not involved in their conversation, she was paying attention to the lives of the people in the city, "Madam, what's wrong?" ”
"The emperor didn't rob the people of their food, but Xiao He told me that when the county government left, he actually brought everything he could, even if it was food, he didn't leave anything. Will these people have a surplus of food in their hands? Xin Kun frowned.
"It's good to be able to live in peace now, the food ......" Xiaopang didn't continue, he is also a person who has experienced hunger, and even if the poor don't fight, they don't have any food. Now most of the Dasheng army is training in the mountains, to put it bluntly, it is self-sufficient, and the defenders have changed in the city, but the defenders have not interfered with the lives of the people, and everyone lives their own lives. Regardless, sometimes, is the greatest appeasement.
"Hundreds of thousands of troops are coming soon!" Xin Kun frowned.
Fu Ji and Xiao Fat opened their eyes wide, but they didn't dare to speak, this small town barely squeezed into 80,000 people, and now there are hundreds of thousands, this? Even if these people were washed and cooked, they would not be able to eat a few meals.
"Let Xiao He hurry up!" Chubby hesitated for a moment and said softly.
"Yes, now in order to save these people, you have to think." Xin Kun understands what Xiaopang means, now that the people want to live, they must be obedient to the people, so they have to be honest. And Xiao He helped the people escape the slaughter of the barbarians, and there is still a certain status in the hearts of these people, and if they are brought together, maybe they can coexist peacefully with the military by relying on their wife.
"Ma'am, do you have any ideas?"
"How about the women help the soldiers with their laundry and change their stuttering?" Xin Kun looked sideways at Fu Ji.
"It's okay to do laundry, but are people willing?" Chubby thinks it's not a problem to let the women in the city organize to wash the clothes for the Dasheng army, but the question is, will the Dasheng soldiers be paid?
"Men, you two brothers take it out, the snow covers the river, it should be easy to do business. Now there are no nobles, you are a specialty, exchange food and come back to feed your wife and children. ”
"Now that there are wars going on everywhere, where can we go to do business? We don't have any workshops or raw materials. When it comes to doing business, Xiaopang still has some experience, and said busily.
"Weapons for food!" Xin Kun said softly.
"What did you say?"
"The people of Dasheng don't look down on the weapons they use, those things are piled up there, and there are no guards at all. You take people to fix these things and sell them. Xin Kun pointed to the pile of rags under the city wall, and if he didn't look closely, he didn't know that it was a weapon.
"Is this okay?" Fu Ji hesitated, these things can be put here and rot, but if you take them back, what will the Dasheng army think.
"Gotta find something to eat! Now let the old and infirm go and wash the clothes, and the young and middle-aged go and clean up the rags, and then I will ask the emperor to send a prison guard, so that as long as you don't stay by yourself, just change food, they won't say anything. Xin Kun thought for a moment.
"You don't want us to sell weapons everywhere, let them kill each other, and finally let the Dasheng people and fishermen benefit, right?" Chubby narrowed his eyes and looked at Xin Kun.
"That is what I mean, by the way, one of your rebels has joined forces with the army of the court and entered the palace, and now, they have turned to the other rebels. Originally, I suggested that the emperor slowly push outward, at least to save the people. But if it goes on like this, food will be a big problem. Now, if we can change a little more, the people will be able to live one more day. Xin Kun's eyes are blank, she doesn't need to use any tricks now, for North Koreans, struggling can only die faster, she is thinking now, but it is just to let those who are unwilling to be dull exchange food for weapons, food is used to save civilians, and weapons make the rebels die faster.
Xiaopang and Fu Ji were silent, they were both smart people, and they didn't need to think much to know that Xin Kun didn't say anything wrong, and Xin Kun was already trying his best to save people. Is it better to die those who have nothing to do with them, or to die the people who have helped them? The answer is obvious.
Xiaopang went to see those weapons, the iron weapons of North Korea are actually quite good, these are the equipment of the regular army defending the city, but the people of Dasheng can't use it, and they can use it with new wooden accessories.
"I'm afraid that it will take time and money to repair."
"I don't need money, two mixed vegetable dumplings and vegetable soup a day." Xin Kun had a calm face, how many people were in the town, and how many points she had in her heart. She didn't dare to eat the grain she hid in the mountains, and every day she still took the women to dig wild vegetables, so that Ah Da and they didn't dare to eat the meat they hunted for, but dared to salt it and store it carefully, which was all prepared for the long-term war of resistance. Now she doesn't have to take care of the food in the army, and the food in her mountains should still be able to cope with these people.
"Then try it!" Chubby and Fu Ji nodded in unison, and when they were done, the two looked at each other. Fu Ji is also in charge of things in the Zhuangzi, the boys are running business, and the girls are watching the workshop at home, busy with logistics distribution and management. Now, both of them actually think that this matter is their own, and they never thought that the two of them would be responsible for one thing at the same time. So the two answered together, and they were a little depressed, feeling that the other party was robbing each other.
"Take Xiao He out, and the three of them will do it together. Discuss the division of labor yourself! Xin Kun didn't bother to talk to them. Walk around the city by yourself! It was a long-term plan just now, and in the near future, she had to find another batch of grain.
