Li Yi took a deep look at Huo Gang, it is rumored that Huo Gang is the reincarnation of the heavenly immortals, so will the reincarnation of the immortals know that there will be a famine this year? If you don't know, why did Huo Gang buy grain in large quantities from the time he started trading with them? Even at the expense of increasing the number of war horses sold, they also have to buy grain?

However, Li Yi can't say these words, although there will be a famine, but the grain income in the past few years is okay, so there will be no large-scale turmoil, but this will definitely have some impact.

"According to the Taishi Bureau (equivalent to Qin Tianjian, the former Sui was changed to Taishi Cao and then Cao was changed to Cao, and the early Tang Dynasty was changed to Taishi Bureau), this year's rainfall is scarce, Guannei Road, Henan Road, Longyou Road and other rainfall are lower than in previous years, Longyou Road is our Liangzhou, Guazhou territory, of which Liangzhou has not rained since the summer this year, but Guazhou, which has rained less than Liangzhou in previous years, and it has not rained much this year."

"In addition, the river water flow in various irrigation areas is significantly lower than in previous years, and the grain harvest in some places has shown signs of failure, although the scope is not large, but it affects many prefectures and counties, and it is foreseeable that there will be a large area of drought in Liangzhou, Guazhou, and the northern states of Guannai."

"Although the drought in some places is not serious, it is estimated that the grain collected is only enough for the local people to sustain this year's food, and His Majesty has ordered that these places facing disasters will be exempted from taxes this year, but it is estimated that there will still be famine and displaced people."

"And it is estimated that the grain controlled by the major families will not be able to be transported here, and it has now belonged to the granaries of the nearby states." Li Yi explained to Huo Gang.

Huo Gang nodded silently, from Li Yi's statement, Huo Gang knew that Datang must have been affected, although there was a famine in the first year of Zhenguan in history, but the scale was not large, but now the famine that Li Yi said has involved three Dao, Datang divided the world into ten Dao, this Dao is much larger than a province in later generations.

Although according to Li Yi, for the time being, Datang will not have much problem spending this year, but the disasters attached to the drought, if there is still a drought this winter and the snowfall decreases, then next year, that is, the locust plague that will appear in the second year of Zhenguan, I am afraid that it will be magnified!

If the scale of the locust plague expands to a certain extent, it is really a place where no grass grows. For now, the scale of this impact is not too big, but what about next year? How big will it be?

The spirit of the Jade Gate can only control Huo Gang's territory, but it can't control the territory of Datang, and if there is a disaster in Datang, it is undoubtedly ordinary people who suffer.

Although Huo Gang is not a saint, I have to say that this situation still affects him to a certain extent, but for such a situation, Huo Gang can not do much.

But Huo Gang had a rough estimate of the influence of the Spirit of the Jade Gate.

That is, the larger Huo Gang's territory, the higher the level of wind and rain within his territory, and at the same time, the less impact it will have on the climate of the surrounding territories bordering him.

It may seem paradoxical, if the territory is larger, shouldn't the impact be greater?

But to be precise, if Huo Gang's territory is only the line of Yangguan, Yumen Pass, and the Huo Ci River Basin, then if you want it to rain here and become weatherly, from the meteorology of later generations, you have to frantically extract the surrounding water vapor, and then concentrate on him to rain.

Of course, this has a big impact on the environment around him, because there is little precipitation in the Western Regions, but if Huo Gang's territory expands to a certain range, if Huo Gang now includes India, then Huo Gang guesses that the annual water vapor in the Indian Ocean is 99% blocked by the Himalayas.

So if it is all Huo Gang's territory, if the water vapor that is blocked every year is reduced to 98%, as long as there is 1% more water vapor, I don't know how much the precipitation in these places in Yumen Pass will increase.

Of course, Huo Gang's more precipitation in their territory means that there will be more snowfall in the surrounding mountains, and it is really hard for Huo Gang to say whether these snowfalls will cause the Yangtze River and the Yellow River to flood.

However, if the area of Huo Gang's territory is large enough, then this water vapor is transferred from rich places to barren places, does this mean that the average value is reduced, and the impact on the overall climate will naturally be less!

Of course, these are Huo Gang's guesses, at present, Huo Gang can't be sure, but some meteorological data of these surrounding countries, Huo Gang also remembered Datang from history, and he didn't know the rest.

Huo Gang can't change the world, but he can affect the world, and for those ordinary people who may be affected by him, Huo Gang can only say sorry.

"Master Li, I have something to ask for." Huo Gang thought for a moment before he spoke seriously.

"Leader Huo, please speak." Li Yi's heart moved slightly.

"That's right, since there will inevitably be a famine in Datang this year, including a famine in Guazhou and Liangzhou, then there will definitely be hungry people who can't survive, am I right?" Huo Gang asked.

"It's inevitable." Li Yi said very simply.

"Then I don't know if you can help me spread a message, if you come to my Han territory, and are willing to become my Han's people, I will distribute land, food, and shelter here for free?" Huo Gang looked at Li Yi and asked.

"This ......" Although Li Yi already had a rough guess in his heart, after Huo Gang's words came out, Li Yi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Because of Huo Gang's idea, Li Yi knows very well that he wants to attract displaced people and plunder the population.

In fact, for example, in Yiwu City, Gaochang Kingdom, and the 36 countries of the Western Regions further west, a considerable number of them are Han people, and these Han people are actually ancestors who had to move west due to various disasters to form these different countries.

Such migrations are not only in ancient times, but also in modern times in later generations.

"In this way, these hungry people will also be able to go out, avoid turmoil in Guazhou and Liangzhou, and it can be regarded as stabilizing the situation in Datang, right?" Huo Gang understated the concept of stealing, or it can't be called a concept of stealing, because Li Yi heard it.

There will indeed be unrest and so on in these populations, but as long as the disaster relief keeps up, if they can survive, they will be able to return to normal next year. However, what Li Yi didn't know was that Datang's Zhenguan started three years...... It's really hellish difficulty.

"I don't force it, in fact, I mainly want to absorb some homeless people who are about to die, this is not too much. I don't think you can bear to watch these homeless people starve to death, do you? Huo Gang added.

In fact, this is a nonsense, when did these wealthy families care about the life and death of these people, in their opinion, these people can't die clean anyway, every famine is a good harvest for them, the reason? Very simple.

Because there will be more people who sell themselves into slavery to work for them, just for a bite to eat, and selling themselves into slavery is completely different from the tenants who just help them farm.

"If this happens, I don't mind helping Leader Huo convey the news." Li Yi thought about it, and then simply made a promise. Because now Huo Gang's status in Li Yi's heart has risen sharply again.

Because of that cement! As the future head of a family, how could Li Yi not see the advantages and usefulness of these cements?!

"But I have some curiosity, it's no problem to accept the homeless, although Leader Huo bought a lot of food, but if Leader Huo accepts enough homeless people, will he be able to feed it?" Li Yi asked with some curiosity.

"Hehe, let's do it, the head of the Li family can ride a horse, why don't you go with me to our Han's farmland for a walk?" Huo Gang asked with a smile.

Li Yi immediately nodded: "Of course it's no problem." ”

The two of them did not stay at the moment, and after coming out of the house, the two sides rode horses, and then went directly to the farmland area south of Yumen Pass under the leadership of Wang Shan. Most of the area near Yumen Pass is covered with alfalfa grass, and further south, there are wheat fields on both sides of the river, and then alfalfa grass on both sides of the wheat fields farther away from the river.

The season for wheat to harvest and ripen in this place in Yumenguan is about mid-July, of course, there is no Gregorian calendar in this era, only the lunar calendar, so it is harvested around the middle of June of the lunar calendar, and it is already the middle of May of the lunar calendar.

In about a month, the wheat can be harvested, and all the wheat has completed the heading, and the yield can almost be seen, although it seems inaccurate now, but the ears of wheat now, in Wu Ping's words, are the heaven-sent grain that Huo Gang gave them.

Huo Gang hadn't seen it yet, so he just followed Li Yi to see it this time.

In less than half an hour, Huo Gang and Li Yi had already turned over and dismounted by a wheat field. Li Yi got off the horse and approached the wheat field as soon as he got off the horse, and when he saw the wheat in the wheat field clearly, Li Yi couldn't help but gasp.

You must know that half a year ago this place was still barren, but now when he looks up, all the green wheat fields within his sight are there, and more importantly, the ears of wheat in front of Li Yi...... The length of this ear of wheat is simply beyond Li Yi's imagination!

People like Li Yi, people in later generations may think that Li Yi and them are the kind of people who don't eat minced meat, they don't know the suffering of the world at all, and they don't understand this.

In fact, this is all a wrong perception, why not eat minced meat people in this era, but it definitely does not include all the heads of the family, to be precise, all the family heads who have been inherited for one or two hundred years are not such people.

The Confucian scholars of the Tang Dynasty are not quite the same as those Confucian scholars in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the scholars in this period are really good at the six arts of gentlemen, and they are really all-rounders in civil and military affairs. Like Fang Xuanling, the eldest grandson Wuji, there is no problem at all for these people to lead troops to fight.
