Liu Ponu knew that his complaint yesterday would definitely bring some benefits to the little old man in front of him.

Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.

Obviously, the benefits he should have received.

Although Liu Ponu is a salted fish, this does not mean that he has no temper as a salted fish.

I don't want credit or anything, but I know that I can't live anymore when I'm hungry, and if you come empty-handed today, that's your fault.

"I look ugly?" Liu Che looked at Liu Ponu with black lines on his face, and called him a good guy in his heart.

But I think it's a little funny.

Yesterday it didn't matter about this matter, and I took the initiative to ask him what benefits he wanted and bluntly refused!

Today, I saw that I didn't say anything, but I didn't hide my attitude at all.

Calm is an attitude that I can do without, but you can't not give it......

Liu Che was suddenly stunned for a moment, and looked at Liu Ponu again with shock in his heart.

'Huh? Seems a little bit like that? ’

Liu Che couldn't say what it was, but he knew that the feeling was familiar......

"Yesterday, you didn't seek fame, and when I reported to Your Majesty, I said that I heard someone mention this method on the street, and Your Majesty rewarded me with 2,000 acres of fertile land outside Chang'an City, and you said I looked ugly?" Liu Che looked at Liu Ponu with a smile, his face full of provocation.

Liu Ponu looked at Liu Che with his brows jumping wildly.

Groove ......

Didn't you say this good thing earlier?

If you had said it earlier, could I have said that you look ugly?

But the forced grid has already been established, isn't it a bit bad to hear that 2,000 acres will instantly slap yourself in the face in two days?

Threatening me isn't?

"Two thousand acres of fertile land is good, but I can't plant it all even if I am exhausted to death......" Liu Ponu's face twisted, and his face was full of firmness, and the implication was that I was not rare.

Even if there are only dozens of acres of land for me, I will do a good job in the spring next year, and there will still be so much grain that I can't eat in the autumn harvest.

But when I think about this year's rations, I feel fucked.

There is no supplementary food, saying that it is a meal, then it is really a meal, a big bowl full of corn, no oil, water and vegetable leaves.

Before the crossing, Liu Ponu never dared to believe that his meal would be so large, even if he ate two catties of corn a day, he would feel hungry for so many hours.

"Coincidentally, Your Majesty also gave me fifty domestic servants......" Liu Che smiled knowingly.

Hearing the fifty servants, Liu Ponu secretly swallowed his saliva.

Brute......

Brutes......

Steady......

I can resist ......

A domestic servant is a type of slave, and it is all adult males, and it is said that they are animals until they die of exhaustion......

"What about having a housekeeper? Without livestock, could it be that they were expected to use people to pull the plows? ”

"What you can think of, can't Your Majesty think of it?" Liu Che smiled and continued to tempt: "Your Majesty also gave me ten cows, all of which are under the age of five!" ”

"I can't afford to feed cattle, less than twenty stone of grain, fifty people, ten cows......"

"Your Majesty rewarded me with a hundred gold ......"

Liu Ponu looked at Liu Che with Venus in his eyes, being a salted fish also needs capital.

At least you have to be able to ensure your basic life, otherwise if you are salty, you will really become a salted fish.

He was already moved, and felt that if he continued to do it, he was afraid that this little old man would be angry.

So he subconsciously said: "What else did Your Majesty reward you?" ”

"I mean this is a reward from Your Majesty, it's not appropriate for you to give me this, Your Majesty will be angry if he knows......" Liu Ponu quickly explained.

It's obviously my own thoughts, why did you say it quickly?

"Your Majesty has given me so much, so I'm still thinking about whether to eat or not?" Liu Che dragged his gray beard and looked at Liu Ponu with a smile.

Although Liu Ponu's behavior was a bit excessive, Liu Che was not angry at all.

Now he is eighty percent sure that Liu Ponu is the boy he left outside, and he has been treated badly for so many years, what's wrong with giving such a little thing?

Even if Liu Ponu opened his mouth, Liu Che would still satisfy him.

It's just that Liu Ponu's behavior was unexpected by Liu Che, although he was a little shameless, but he couldn't be angry.

Liu Ponu felt that he didn't particularly care about such a thing.

The most important thing in this life is to see your position clearly, just like a second-year soldier can pretend to be forced in front of new recruits, but he must not pretend to be forced in front of the old squad leader, and the reason is the same.

This little old man is so old, he should let him order, after all, the fine tradition can't be lost, right?

"Ahem......"

Liu Ponu coughed embarrassedly twice, although he has not studied this matter specifically, but he still knows some about the general direction, although it is very vague, but it should be enough to fool this old man, right?

I sorted out my thoughts a little, so as not to be unable to contain the momentum later.

"As long as you observe carefully, this thing is actually very easy to see, of course, I don't know the specific data, I can only say these situations as I know."

"Well, if you say it's reasonable, I still have some way to check the data!" Liu Che still looked at Liu Ponu with a smile and nodded.

"Let's talk about people first, I went to North Korea the year before last, although the war went very smoothly, but the casualties of the troops were not small, as far as my department was, when I went, it was full, and when I came back, there were only more than 700 people left."

"When I went to the grassland last year, there were still more than 600 people left when I came back, and I heard the tun chief say that the two years of fighting were nothing compared to before, but you can imagine how high the previous battle losses were."

"I don't know how many people have died after so many years of fighting, but after I came back, I saw the consequences of the death of so many people."

"On the way to North Korea and the grassland, I saw a lot of barren fields, and those were all barren fields with owners."

"Yangling has been smooth in recent years, but the harvest is decreasing year by year, not that the people don't have to cultivate, but they are really powerless, and there are only old and young women and children left in the family, even if they are desperate, they can't plant so much land."

"If this battle is fought for a few more years, the situation will only get worse, the Kanto natural disaster is a good awakening for the emperor, although this time it can be carried through in the form of work-for-relief, what about the next time?"

Listening to Liu Ponu's words, Liu Che was suddenly frightened for a while.

The natural disaster in Kanto, millions of people have been displaced, there is not enough food to relieve the disaster, and even more than 1,000 victims have only appeared in Yangling, the hinterland of Guanzhong, and the public order has plummeted, and the people are complaining, what about other places?

Although what he said is still far away, if he really follows this line of thought, it seems that it is not far away.

Because no one knows better than Liu Che the trend of demographic changes over the years, and no one knows better than him how much the grain production has decreased.

But is this a battle to stop fighting?

Is it necessary to let the nomads of the north continue to wreak havoc?

Do you want to make them happy to plunder, and if they are unhappy, they will come to plunder?

"Do you think it's time for this battle to stop?" Liu Che looked at Liu Ponu, not disappointed in his heart, but also unhappy.

Liu Ponu looked at Liu Che with a smile.

'I'm so good to you, but you're going to dig a hole for me, little old man, my conscience is greatly broken......
