144 Reopening [2-in-1]
As for the ten heinous homeless people, their crimes, Gu Qing has already been tried, and the four strong women who led the way ate a lot of babies...... And the rest of the people, I don't know how many young men they have bullied, all of them have blood on their hands, these people deserve to die.
She is not a county order, and she has no right to dispose of them, so she can only put these ten people in a pigsty, hang her life with a bowl of water every day, and just don't die.
The plague in the village has been almost under control in the past few days, Gu Qing plans to let the soap workshop resume work tomorrow, and the workshop will lose a lot of money if it is closed for a day, and the big thing of making money cannot be delayed.
The soap workshop resumed work, and classes were about to start in the school, and Gujia Village slowly returned to its usual peace.
However, it is only Gujia Village.
The population of the entire Youshui County is too large, but the medicinal materials are pitiful, and it only lasted for three days before it was completely out of medicine, if it weren't for Gu Qing having a mall in hand to buy medicinal materials at any time, and sending a lot of medicinal materials to the county government in time, the town and even the entire Youshui County don't know how many people will die.
After the medicinal materials were in place, three meals a day, the number of patients who were hovering on the verge of death was greatly reduced, and the number of patients with some mild high fever and cough gradually decreased, and the condition of the entire Youshui County quickly stabilized...... The control of the city gates has also been slightly relaxed.
At this time, the county magistrates of several nearby counties were finally able to meet and discuss the plan.
Several people sat in the lobby of the Youshui County Ya, and now that the plague was temporarily under control, the main discussion was the resettlement of displaced people.
Dahe County Ling sighed: "The prefect said, what kind of resettlement method is it to resettle displaced people on the spot? ”
The Baishui County Commander spoke: "The harvest in our county is not good, and the local farmers themselves are short of food, where can they afford to feed so many displaced people." ”
Shen Xianling frowned and said: "If these displaced people are not settled in time, they will continue to flow north, and if they flow to the capital, it will be a big deal." The prefect's move is the meaning of the imperial court and the meaning of the saint, and we must not slack off. ”
"We have nearly 1,500 displaced people in Baishui County, so many people, it is really difficult to resettle, we need food, we have to build houses, and we have to give ...... to fields," Baishui County Ling said with a sad face, "Dahe County is rich, Youshui County is stable, and it must be able to accept displaced people...... I am willing to give up the political achievements that originally belonged to Baishui County to Dahe County and Youshui County. ”
This year, Baishui County has been crane tail, and has not made any political achievements, even so, it is simply rotten.
Several other county orders followed, anyway, there was no hope of promotion in the next assessment, so I could only resign myself to fate.
After the merchants in Youshui County were slaughtered, they couldn't follow suit, because the merchants all said they were sick and didn't give them a chance at all......
"I can't afford to resettle the displaced people, so I asked my two sisters to lend a hand."
"Our county can only supply one meal a day, who is willing to take over the displaced people, all the remaining 800 catties of grain in the county will be given."
"There are still more than 600 catties left in the granary of our county, and all of them have been taken out......"
The corners of Shen County's eyes twitched.
If anyone is willing to help resettle the 2,000 displaced people in Youshui County, he is also willing to give away the remaining 10,000 catties of grain from the county government.
"She still has important matters to deal with, so I will leave first."
"Before dark, my sister sent food and the homeless people together and said goodbye."
"I'll go first...... too"
The county commanders were all gone, and only the Dahe County Commanders and Shen County Commanders were left looking at each other.
As soon as Dahe County Ling stood up, he was grabbed by Shen County's sleeve: "My good sister, you Dahe County has a big wharf, merchants come and go, and it is the richest county in the vicinity, you can't pick and choose......"
"There are more than 5,000 displaced people in our vicinity, which is not a small number." Dahe County Ling spoke, "How about our two counties, each of which is half settled?" ”
Dahe County Order's annual political performance has always been ranked high in Nanzhou, and it is naturally impossible for her to let her career be stained, so she immediately discussed it carefully with Shen County Order.
Although the homeless people are a big trouble, if they are dealt with well, they will be promoted in the future, and they will have a share.
The news of the local resettlement of displaced people soon spread in Gujia Village, and it was heard that as many as 2,000 displaced people were assigned to Youshui County, so many displaced people made people panic.
Old Lady Gu's worried eyebrows were about to be knotted: "Eldest granddaughter, what's the matter?" When people are hungry and crazy, they will mess around, and so many homeless people are really afraid that something will happen. ”
Gu Qing thought in his heart, more than 2,000 people, divided equally into various villages, each village is about 100 people, 100 people say that it is not much, but it is actually a lot to say less, if you really want to make trouble, you can indeed get some moths out.
Li Zheng took a puff of dry tobacco and said in a muffled voice: "The more than 100 homeless people in our village are very good, obedient, obedient, and work very hard, if you accept them, I am still quite willing." ”
Gu Qing smiled and said: "There are more than 20 villages in Youshui County, our village should recruit 100 people, and the extra dozens of people will be divided. ”
"Hey, that's not going to work, who's going to do the work?" Li Zheng put away his cigarette stick, stood up, and said anxiously: "Our Nanzhou is the closest to Xiliang Country, and the winter is the coldest. Seeing that this day is getting colder and colder, and it will snowfall in a few days, not to mention that your workshop needs firewood every day, even the usual crop households are also hoarding firewood every day at this time of the year, and our village has to keep these people to hurry up and stock up on dry firewood for the winter! ”
was casually discussing, and Shen County's carriage slowly stopped at the entrance of the village.
Li Zheng suddenly had a spirit: "It must be for the matter of relocating the homeless, Gu Niangzi, you go with me." ”
Gu Qing nodded and went to greet him.
As soon as a few people left, the displaced people not far away gathered together to chat.
"Why did I just hear that we homeless people are going to settle down?"
"Let's escape the famine for three or four months, can we really settle down?"
"If you really want to settle down, this Gujia Village is very good, the people in the village are kind, the people in the village are also generous, the same is to drink porridge, the porridge outside the city is as thin as water, the porridge here is thick enough to insert chopsticks, and there are small dishes to send porridge, I am willing to stay here to help work."
"My lady and daughter are still in the ruined temple outside the city, if I can settle down here, I will bring her and her mother immediately."
"But just now the little lady said that a village only accepts a hundred homeless people, so many of us ......"
A group of homeless people, you look at me, I look at you, immediately threw away their tools, and rushed in the direction of Shen County's order.
As soon as Shen Xianling got off the carriage, he was surrounded by a group of homeless people, and his excited look frightened Shen Xianling almost returned to the carriage.
"Lord County Commander, we and other displaced people have been in Gujia Village for many days, if we settle down, we all want to stay in Gujia Village!"
"Please also ask the prefectural order to be fulfilled!"
Hundreds of homeless people knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Li Zheng followed and said: "My lord, our Gujia Village has wasteland, workshops, and surplus grain for the winter, and there are enough conditions to receive displaced people, and Gujia Village is willing to share the worries of adults." ”
Shen Xianling's face rose slightly, took a few steps forward, waved his hand and said, "Get up!" ”
When everyone avoided the homeless, Gujia Village offered to keep the homeless, and this village always exceeded his expectations.
"Gu Lizheng, you have great righteousness."
Shen County's short comment made Li Zheng feel a little weak.
He was simply worried that there would be no one to gather firewood, many people in the village worked in the workshop, the rest worked in the fields, and the children were studying in the school, and the dry firewood that should have been hoarded for the winter was now less than half of what it was in previous years.
Gu Niangzi's family has to spend a lot of copper money to collect dry firewood, with these homeless people, two meals of porridge a day can gather a lot of dry firewood, such a cheap labor, don't be in vain......
"My lord, let these more than 100 people stay in Gujia Village." Li Zheng said with a righteous air, "The village will divide the fields for the homeless people, and will help the homeless people build houses to help them survive this winter." ”
Shen Xianling nodded, very satisfied: "Then according to what you say." ”
After speaking, she looked at those kneeling on the ground with a majestic gaze, "Gujia Village is the most stable place to live in the entire Youshui County, you can stay here, it is a blessing that you have cultivated in your previous life, if you dare to make trouble again, you will be punished!" ”
More than 100 displaced people, plus their families, about four or five hundred people, can form a small village.
For the sake of the future peace of the county and villages, for the barrier-free integration of locals and homeless people, and for the prosperity of Youshui County, the first thing he has to do is to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys.
Shen County's Lingban had a serious face, and shouted angrily: "Bring me all those people who are traitors and criminals!" ”
Li Zheng led the officials and brought the ten most wicked people.
When those ten people saw the county order, it was like seeing their parents again.
"Lord County Commander, save us, this Gujia Village is a waste of people's lives!"
"They actually put us in a pigsty, and we can only grab chaff with the pigs every day, woo woo!"
Shen Xianling's eyebrows sank: "You and other people who have committed great crimes, you can still eat bran, do you know that this is a precious thing!" ”
She lifted her foot and kicked it hard.
Of the ten men, four of them were the first to charge, and were pierced through the abdomen by the rifles, and after being wounded that day, Li Zheng only pasted a little grass ash on their wounds and fed them a little medicine, but they didn't die, but their appearance was too miserable to bear to look at.
"Treat you, that's a waste of medicinal herbs!" Shen Xianling said coldly, "These people deserve to be punished for their crimes, and they will be executed directly on the spot!" ”
The ten people thought that the savior was coming, but when they heard this, they immediately bounced up from the ground in fright.
"My lord, we have been wronged!"
"We are good citizens, please let us live!"
Shen Xian Ling said coldly: "It's not possible to be a fool to be an official, before coming to Gujia Village, this official has already checked the origin of the ten of you, one by one, you are a traitor, and your hands are stained with blood, so that you can live until now, it is the kindness of Gujia Village!" This official is not a good person! A few of you, what are you still doing in a daze, just cut it off! ”
The yacha behind him brandished a long knife, and his hand rose and fell, and ten people died.
The homeless people who knelt on the ground screamed in fright.
Shen County's face was full of majesty: "Gu Lizheng, this blood-stained long knife will be given to you, if these homeless people make trouble in Gujia Village, you have the right to cut first and then play!" ”
Li Zheng knelt down: "Yes, my lord! ”
After Shen Xianling left, Li Zheng gathered all the displaced people together.
"More than 100 of you will settle down in my Gujia Village and become a member of Gujia Village." Li Zheng stood on the big stone under the big locust tree, and said loudly, "Gujia Village accepts you, and at the same time, it also accepts your family, you don't have to work in the second half of today, you go to the city to bring your family over, and tomorrow you will have a day off and help each other clean up your place and come out." When you settle down, the village will give you a piece of land. ”
Just now, Shen County's order was deterred, and it scared this group of people.
And Li Zheng's words were like a warm spring breeze that soothed the panic in their hearts.
These people who fled the famine are all farmers, and for farmers, the most important thing is the field, and now, they can settle down and have their own land, can there be any luckier people in this world than them?
"However, the land in Gujia Village is not blown by the wind, and it is impossible to distribute it to you outsiders for no reason." Li Zheng paused and continued, "People between the ages of fourteen and fifty, regardless of men and women, can get one acre of land, and the price of one acre of land is five yuan, and the grain is handed over after the harvest every year. ”
The homeless people showed surprise on their faces one by one.
One person has one acre of land, a family can have about four acres of land, I heard that Gujia Village grows two seasons, and the yield per mu is as high as 1,400 catties. This is worth a year's harvest in their hometown, and if they farm well next year, they will definitely not go hungry again.
And an acre of land is only five dollars of silver, which is much cheaper than they imagined.
"As long as you live honestly and An'an works and farms, you are a part of Gujia Village." Li Zheng played with the long knife rewarded by Shen County's order in his hand, and said with a smile, "If someone secretly makes some moths...... Hehe, I'm a person with a bad temper, and I can't move my mouth if I can do it, so let's take care of it. ”
As he spoke, he brandished his long knife and gestured wildly.
The homeless people saw the knife cut off the heads of four people, and they were so frightened that they shrunk their necks and did not dare to speak.
"It's not early, let's hurry up and pick up our families."
All the displaced people dispersed quickly.
They went to the city to find their families.
More than 100 displaced people, and with their families, the number reached more than 400.
Most of these men who were used as meat shields did not have a wife, and they returned to the city to bring their children or old mothers, and many of those women had husbands and children, and some of the women's families were all dead...... In the end, there are more children, but there are basically no children under the age of three or four, and they are all older children...... Gu Qing pondered slightly, thinking carefully and being extremely frightened.
The wasteland in Gujia Village is located in all directions, and some land is divided into each direction, Gu Qing suggested that these homeless people should be allowed to build houses close to their fields and live in a scattered manner, so as not to gather crowds to make trouble.
The adobe bricks in the village have all been used up, this time the thatched house is built, cut the tree as a support, put on the dry thatch, and then smear a layer of mud, the house is built, although Gujia Village is now richer, but there are many such thatched houses in the village, which is more cost-effective and trouble-free than building an adobe house.
And some bachelors are too lazy to build a house, so they live in the collective dormitory that the village helped build before.
In one day, the thatched huts were all built, and the roof was first covered with hay, more mud, then broadleaves, then mud, and then a layer of thatch...... This cycle several times will prevent rain leakage.
While the village was busy, Rizheng was called to the county for a meeting.
The plague in Youshui County has been extremely well controlled, the city gate is wide open, and there are basically no displaced people in the city, because they have been assigned to live in various villages, so at a glance, Youshui County seems to have returned to the tranquility and prosperity of the past.
And Qinghan Dessert and Qingpei Pavilion also reopened on this day!
