Chapter 269: Shanren's Clever Plan

When the food in the city runs out, not only will the victims face famine, but even the people in the city and even the palace will be in danger, how to solve this

If even the imperial city falls, it is a cold day, and there are still beads of sweat the size of soybeans rolling down on Lu Hou's head.

"Master Hou, don't worry, the situation may not be so serious, after all, before it really happens, these are just personal inferences of the slave maid."

This obvious word of relief did not alleviate Lu Hou's impatience, Su Xiaojiu hurriedly said, "The slave maid just imagined the worst outcome first, but as long as you take precautions in the early stage and control things within a certain range, this disaster should be avoided. ”

"Let's talk about it"

Lu Hou was sweating profusely, he knew that the little girl in front of him should not be underestimated, and he had almost all the expectations for her proposal.

In fact, if he could analyze this matter calmly, Lu Hou might not be able to think of a countermeasure, but he suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation, and his mind was suddenly a mess, and he could not figure it out for a while

Su Xiaojiu was silent, but his mind was spinning rapidly, and after a while, he said, "Master Hou, the city must be sealed, but while the city is closed, you must also take care of the refugees." ”

Lu Hou waited quietly for the following.

She turned around, looked at the vast snow, and said, "While there are only a small number of refugees coming now, we can set up a refugee camp on the outskirts of the city first, and when there are more refugees, we will give porridge regularly to stabilize the refugees, and find a way to order a large amount of food from neighboring countries to prevent the outbreak in the future." ”

"It's easy to give porridge, but as the number of victims increases, there will always be a day when the food will run out, so we just feed them for nothing?"

From now until the spring sowing of next year, and the autumn harvest will be more than half a year, no matter how rich his Hou Mansion is, he can't take it all out and feed the refugees

Su Xiaojiu smiled and said, "Master Hou, don't worry, listen to the slave." ”

"Okay, you say, I just don't intervene."

"Master Hou remembers the greenhouse we talked about before?"

Lu Hou paused, and said, "Naturally, I remember, but now is not the time to talk about greenhouses, it is still the right thing to solve the refugees first." ”

"What the slave wants to say is about refugees."

"What do you mean?"

"Didn't we ask the emperor for a decree before, do we want to contract the construction of all the greenhouses near Shangjing, not to mention the cost of building greenhouses, the cost of materials for building greenhouses, it will cost a lot of labor alone, Hou Ye thinks, if you talk about wages, is it more expensive to go to Beijing, or is it more expensive in the place?"

"Naturally, it's going to Beijing"

Does this still need to be askedShangjing is not only the political center of Dayuan, but also the economic center, the same labor, one day of work, the wage difference is more than doubled

Thinking of this, Lu Hou's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but look at Su Xiaojiu in surprise, and pointed his index finger at her speechless.

Su Xiaojiu knew that he understood what he meant, and said with a smile, "Now that there are cheap laborers who take the initiative to send them to the door, how can we not use them?"

However, the people in Shangjing are generally mostly businessmen, and the labor force is small, and the wages will rise, and they will build greenhouses on a large scale, according to the previous plan, the wages alone will account for nearly half of the budget, and these refugees from all over the world, if they can find a job to make a living, how can they care about the level of wages

In this way, it can not only solve the problem of refugees, but also speed up the construction of greenhouses, and save a lot of money, which can be described as a lot of money.

By the beginning of spring next year, when the snow melts, the refugees will have to return to their hometowns to cultivate the fields and sow seeds, and their greenhouses will be almost built.

Not only that, Luhou Mansion was the first to open a porridge shack, resettle the victims, and solve the crisis for the imperial city, not only the emperor will be grateful, but the prestige in the hearts of the people will also be raised again

These are also what she thought of in her heart just now, there must be many imperfections, but the refugees entering the city are imminent, and there is no better way to think of it in a short time, so they can only act first and slowly check and fill in the gaps.

Although Lu Hou is a martial artist, sometimes his mind is a little rougher, but it does not mean that he has no brains, and he quickly figured out the tricks.

The construction of the greenhouse is for the country, it doesn't matter if there is no silver in the treasury, he can pay out of his own pocket, and then the emperor owes the Hou Mansion a great favor.

Excitedly turned around in place a few times, unable to express the excitement in his heart, he wanted to pat Su Xiaojiu's shoulder, but he felt that it was inappropriate, so he grabbed a government soldier casually, slapped the tiger palm on his shoulder, looked up to the sky and smiled, "It's so good hahahaha"

The soldiers were flattered, thinking that their performance in shoveling snow just now was specially praised by the Hou Ye, and they worked harder and harder.

Now Lu Hou looked at Su Xiaojiu again, and the heat in his eyes couldn't stop it, how did this girl's head grow and she couldn't enter the court as an official, she was simply blind

Such a good girl, how good it would be if it was her own family

After the road ahead was cleared, Lu Hou couldn't wait to ride his horse away, he had to rush to carry out this matter before the other families reacted

Su Xiaojiu pulled him again, and said helplessly, "Master Hou, can you be patient and listen to the slave first." ”

Are people who practice martial arts so anxious?

Lu Hou said with a smile: "Isn't this afraid that others will take the lead, what else does the girl have to explain?"

"Don't dare to confess, the slave just has a suggestion, that is, while the victims are not here now, you had better secretly transfer the granary and finances of the Hou Mansion to a safe place first, the world is changeable, no one can predict the specific number of victims, if the situation gets out of control by then, we at least have a way out."

Lu Hou thought so, nodded and said, "What you said is good, but at this time, everyone has not moved, if the Hou Mansion transfers materials with great fanfare, it will be too conspicuous."

Su Xiaojiu thought for a while and said, "You don't need to transfer everything, after all, this is just a slave guess, maybe things will develop in the best direction."

Lu Hou shook his head, "Forget it, it's better to be busy in vain than to be robbed by then, I will give the order tonight and order people to transfer in batches, trying not to alarm others." ”

Looking at the back of him leaving in a hurry, Su Xiaojiu sighed deeply, did his best, obeyed the fate of heaven, and only hoped that things would not be as bad as she expected, so that Dayuan could spend this Spring Festival safely.

Hou Ye left without saying hello, the soldiers did not know the situation, and they were afraid that Mrs. Lu and Niangniang would be in a hurry, so Su Xiaojiu knocked on the door and boarded Concubine Rong's carriage.

Concubine Rong was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "Your method is good, but almost all the refugees come with their families, and they solve the labor, but they can't solve the old, weak, sick and disabled, and many people will still starve to death when the time comes."

Su Xiaojiu said with a smile, "Labor must be used, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled must also be managed, we are under the banner of rehousing the victims, we don't need to pay those laborers, just eat and live, and then use the saved wages to help them resettle their families, the cost is about the same as the start of work, but we can earn a good reputation for charity, wouldn't it be better"
