I will be the king in troubled times Chapter 108 auspicious began to clean up the aftermath
Although the war is over for the time being, the mess left for auspiciousness will have to be dealt with for a long time.
On January 17, Wang Xuan led the military and the government affairs to the martyr's cemetery in the north of Jianye Town, Hedong, which is close to Dongshan and has good feng shui.
The long carriage was full of urns.
The tombstones ordered from the stone quarry have been delivered here yesterday, and a large number of stonemasons are busy nervously.
After the nine cannons rang out eighty-one, Wang Xuan held a shovel and dug up in the planned position.
The cemeteries are small, with an average of only half a square meter each.
The pit is not deep, only one foot.
After digging the pit, the engineers began to lay cement, and nearly 1,000 people dug more than 4,000 graves for a morning, and the engineers were also busy all morning.
In the afternoon, the internal guards assisted Wang Xuan, and together with the military department and the government affairs yuan, the urn was placed in the tomb, and after checking the name, address, and age, it was capped.
The stonemasons then drove the corresponding tombstones into the ground, and the engineers sealed the tombs with cement along with the stones.
Each tomb is spaced one meter apart from the left and right, and one meter and a half from the front and back, which is very compact.
It took two days in a row to complete this huge project, and Wang Xuan loudly told their great achievements, during which he choked up several times and couldn't cry.
Without the dedication of these people, auspiciousness would have long ceased to exist, and they are the loveliest people.
The deceased is gone, the living mourn!
If a group or a nation loses its bloodiness and backbone, then it is not far from extinction.
The cemetery was newly built, but the cement had not yet solidified, so it was not open to the public for the first two days, and family members and relatives could not pay their respects.
On the 19th, the martyrs' cemetery was full of cries, and in front of the dense gray tombstones, there were garlands of purple and red.
Even the gossip-based "Xingyao Lake Daily" used extremely serious language to depict this kind of scene.
"On this day, we were allowed to enter the cemetery to pay respects to the spirits, and we were told not to make noises, not to interview, not to disturb the families.
The courtyard wall is semi-enclosed, and through the upper fence, we can see that there is an endless forest of steles, and I was very shocked in my heart, I knew that under each tombstone there was an auspicious hero, who was tired and needed a quiet rest.
The roads are lawn-manicured, not cold cement.
In addition to the gray patches, it is this green that is set off, as well as the five-colored wreath, expressing the grief of relatives for the deceased.
In order to drive out more than 4,000 stone tablets and let the souls of the heroes rest in peace as soon as possible, the auspicious stonemasons were requisitioned, and there were more than 1,300 people.
It took them three days and two nights to engrave more than 4,000 stone tablets with names, deeds, ages, home addresses, and other information, and some of the stonemasons' fingers were worn out and their flesh and blood were blurred.
The garden is divided into three areas, the left and right sides are already full of tombstones, and only the front is still around.
The crying was not loud and very suppressed, but I could hear the longing under the suppressed voice.
There are gray-haired old people, women with big bellies, and young children waiting to be fed, they have lost the breadwinner of their home, they are in pain, they are helpless.
However, life has to go on, I can only wish them to be strong, I wish them to be brave in the face of everything, the darkest days are over, and the dawn is not far away.
I didn't stop here, wiped the corners of my eyes gently, and returned to the newspaper office with wishes and longing.
I hope that the auspiciousness is better and the people are better.
Xingyaohe Daily reporter, the rest of your life!"
Subsequently, the Lord's Palace decreed that January 9 of each year should be designated as Martyrs' Memorial Day, with a three-day holiday.
On the 20th, the "Wang's Current Affairs" announced that the wartime state would be lifted and the exchange of materials and personnel between inside and outside would be resumed.
On the same day, nearly 100 invaders and generals were beheaded in the Martyrs' Forest Garden, and their heads were kept in a wooden box with lime and temporarily placed in the Heroes Monument in Hexi.
Also on this day, Gu Yongnian submitted the land purchase contract between Jixiang and Xishan.
From now on, Jixiang will have permanent land in Xishan, and the area west of the West River, south of the commodity trade center, and east of the military camp will belong to Jixiang forever.
This land is a little different from what was discussed before, nearly half more, and Wang Xuan estimates that it is also Sun's goodwill.
Then, Xishan used 20 merchant ships to transport a large amount of meat, rice, vegetables and fruits, as well as some Chinese medicinal materials, which was said to be auspicious after the war.
"Lord, you don't know how wonderful the facial expression of the Sun family was at that time, and whether crying is like crying or laughing. As soon as Gu Yongnian thought of this, his heart was extremely comfortable.
"Maybe I regret it. Wang Yu also smiled and accosted.
"What's more, I think it's the fear component, the United Fleet is powerful, although it is not an official organization, but to a certain extent, it also represents the overall strength of half of Daxia, and it was annihilated by us like this, can he Sun Clan not be afraid?"
Xiao Qiangzhi is full of ambition, he can't see this kind of snob.
"However, Zou Qiao has always been calm, reasonable, well-founded, and behaved modestly. Gu Yongnian explained.
Zou Qiao, Wang Xuan, remembers that he is the Minister of State of the Sun family, with outstanding ability, a character similar to Zhao Sheng, and an all-rounder.
As soon as Gu Yongnian said this, Wang Xuan also remembered all kinds of deeds of Zou Qiao, which can be called a great talent, and Sun's ability to be so free is all his credit.
"Since people have a heart, let's take it, 300,000 people need to eat and drink, and the supplies of 20 ships can last at least ten days and half a month. ”
As soon as Wang Xuan said this, everyone was no longer entangled, and the thoughts of revenge on the Sun family were gradually hidden.
Sending so many supplies to Jixiang, Sun was distressed, but what Zou Qiao said was reasonable, and he had to listen.
The reason is very simple, auspiciousness is great, I am afraid that the king will have to think about his attitude towards auspiciousness in the future, auspicious to deal with the small West Mountain, not to be caught.
In addition, the economic development of Xishan depends on auspiciousness, and now auspiciousness will usher in a new leap with the power of great victory.
Third, the combined fleet was destroyed, and the two leaders of the sun and sunset came to find trouble, and they had to rely on the mascot to support the scene.
Now that Sun regrets not being at the beginning, why didn't he listen to persuasion, and he was bent on isolation, but he isolated himself.
"The Lord doesn't have to worry, although he sent supplies afterwards to express Xishan's intentions, but with the style of the Wang family, he will not raise troops to plunder. ”
Zou Qiao couldn't bear to see Sun's worrying appearance, didn't he see that this round face was about to grow into a face.
"Hey, it's all because I didn't have a strong will at the beginning, but fortunately, Aiqing mediated from it and saved me from retaliation, otherwise I would have really died. ”
Sun hung his head and paused, extremely annoyed, with a good thigh, Leng let himself be made a little thumb, wanting to cry without tears.
"We have also sold the land, and the matter has come to this point, and the rift between the two sides is slowly being repaired, and our approach is also helpless, which is understandable. ”
"Hey, then I'll leave everything to Aiqing. You see, there are not many 'dreams auspicious', and I don't have the face to ask for it, so I wronged Aiqing. ”
Zou Qiao shook his head and left the Lord's Mansion, the straight gray road was not in sight, it was the pride of Xishan years ago, but now?
Song Yi returned to the New Song Dynasty with a hundred people, and the two groups of people before and after folded more than fifty, the ancestor just patted his shoulder tremblingly, and after stroking the urn one by one, he entered the stilt room again, and now he can no longer withstand the toss of the wind and cold.
These warriors were buried next to the monument that Wang Xuan had built, with their ancestors as their companions.
"Ancestor, the lord said that as soon as the materials are delivered later, the construction of the Gray Canyon cannot be stopped. There is no need to worry about manpower problems, and Nishiyama has pledged to provide 5,000 labor support. ”
"Okay, Nishiyama, he also has today. ”
The Song ancestor's shriveled face had a momentum, "I chose the right one, follow Wang Xiaozi, you don't lose, he is a person with clear grievances, you follow him well, don't have two hearts." ”
"Ancestor!"
Song Yi was desolate in his heart, but he stopped talking and retreated silently.
The spread of the news was amazing, and when Jixiang had not yet been unsealed, the news of the victory over the Combined Fleet spread out, passing through the Dongshan Pass and then to the Crystal Collar line, which was also intentional by Jixiang.
When auspicious was officially unblocked, the businessmen looted all the newspapers and periodicals of the past ten days and sold them to Hubei and other places, which immediately caused an uproar, followed by groups of people crying and shouting to Jixiang.
They don't want anything or anything, and they are not worth a few dollars, and when they arrive auspicious, it means that they have everything, and the most important thing for them now is time.
Jixiang lost nearly 20,000 people this time and killed more than 4,000 in battle, which shows that they are extremely short of labor.
Everyone understands the principle of first-come, first-served, so as long as the speed is fast enough, the rest doesn't matter.
Former nobles and ordinary workers who had moved out before the feud were denied entry when they returned to auspiciousness.
This made the hearts of the foreign leaders who were forced to stay in Jixiang feel proud, and they didn't care what they thought at the beginning, the reality was that Jixiang had won, and they had taken root in Jixiang.
There are those who regret not being at the beginning, there are those who play tricks and beg, and there are those who are not angry and scolding in their hearts.
But the rules are the rules, betraying their own territory to go to auspicious, auspicious can be generously received, but when auspicious is in trouble, and betrayed auspiciousness, after auspiciousness defeated a strong enemy, you want to return to auspicious, why?
Auspiciousness is the auspiciousness of the mascot, not the public toilet of the passerby, come and go as you want!
Some even took the opportunity to make trouble, spread rumors and caused trouble, and were killed on the spot.
Having experienced a brutal war and facing the test of life and death, the auspicious sergeants, even the reservists, militia and security guards, exuded a bloodthirsty aura all over their bodies, and the discerning people understood at a glance that they had killed people and seen blood.
After dealing with a group of scoundrels, no one dared to go wild at the immigration office, and they were all more well-behaved than Ah Fu at the beginning.
Teachers have returned to their posts, children have returned to school from factories, manpower agencies have become popular again, and the streets and alleys have returned to their former hustle and bustle.
The dead air in Jixiang City disappeared so suddenly, as if it didn't exist in the first place.
There is a long queue in front of the housing exchange again, this time the price is even more fierce, the house that can be won by three or five hundred gold coins a year ago, and now you are not even qualified to bid if you don't have a thousand eight hundred.
"This is the market economy, this is the power of capital. When Jixiang repelled the strong enemy and had a certain right to speak on this continent, they had no worries. For them, problems that can be solved with money are not problems. ”
Wang Xuan has not yet recovered, his figure is still thin, and beside him, there are nearly a hundred and a half children, this is his one hundred King Kong.
"However, what if the house price rises without a bottom line, and most people can't afford it?" asked the little fat girl.
Wang Xuan said: "These houses are for large foreign households, and they buy houses to settle down auspiciously, not for speculation." In addition, there is no shortage of houses for the people, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs will adjust the price of the house according to their annual income, so there will be no situation like the one you said. ”
"That's right, my family bought a homestead in Laifu Town, and built a big house for only about 500 gold coins, and the inflated housing prices in the city are aimed at those rich people from outside. ”
Yang Guang made a supplement, although what he said was inaccurate, it was also clearly organized, and Wang Xuan felt relieved in his heart.
"Now that a lot of people are pouring in, how should we deal with it?" Wang Xuan asked.
At this time, Liu Na's daughter Hu Ling said: "Make the best use of your talents and make the best use of things." ”
Wang Xuan asked, "How can we make the best use of our talents?"
Hu Ling replied: "People are selected for posts and people are selected for posts. ”
Without waiting for Wang Xuan to ask again, the girl continued, "Although we are developing very quickly, some systems, rules or processes are not mature, and sometimes we have to set posts according to people. In our more mature aspects, such as factories and agriculture, we must select people by post. ”
Wang Xuan was very comfortable when he heard this, and said casually: "What your mother taught you?"
"No, my mother often discusses government affairs with my uncles and aunts, and I can hear some of them from time to time, so I have summarized these few points. ”
Wang Xuan was stunned, and then asked, "Do you miss your grandfather's family?"
The girl lowered her head, not daring to look at Wang Xuan, and only after a while did she reluctantly say, "My mother won't let me mention the master's family." ”
Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read.
"When you go back, tell your mother that I allowed your grandfather to live in the royal capital. ”
"Really?" the girl raised her head suddenly, staring at Wang Xuan with a pair of big talking eyes, not realizing how unreasonable this was.
"Well, I'll lie to you!"
That night, Liu Na heard her daughter's relays at the dinner table, crying silently while holding the meal.
"You cried and laughed, just like when you got married, and I still remember it vividly. ”
The man gently wiped away her tears and spoke softly.
She remembered that when she got married, the man also wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes so gently.
That year, she was eighteen and he was forty-three.
Now that she is thirty-three and he is fifty-eight, can we see each other again?
