After leaving the palace, Yuan Yao was in a very good mood, and he got a lot from today's court.

First, he solved the problem of shortage of funds in a short period of time, and secondly, he also got the position of Runan Taishou from his cheap father.

These two things were the main purpose of his return to Shouchun, and they were solved at once today.

The next thing, Yuan Yao also knew what he was going to do, when he came out of the palace, it was already afternoon, he first went to Bagong Mountain to inspect the porridge shack of the soup kitchen, appeased the homeless, and then went to the coal mine to check.

After half a month of exploration, the coal mine has been officially put into operation, where 20,000 miners dig coal and then transport it to the bottom of the mountain to make honeycomb coal.

With the help of Tai Shici and Yan Xiang, Yuan Yao can also save some snacks for the time being, Yan Xiang is not proficient in martial arts, but he is good at internal affairs, and it is not difficult for him to dispatch food and relieve the displaced people on the side of the porridge shed.

And Tai Shi Ci is strong in martial arts and good at training, and he originally managed thousands of water thieves under his command, and there were only 20,000 miners, and it was a piece of cake to hand over to Tai Shi Ci.

The next day, Yuan Yao came to his coal shop according to the agreement, and the civil and military officials who decided to buy shares in the court yesterday were going to give him the money raised today.

Although 50 million is a lot, if it is distributed to these people, a person only needs to raise a few million dollars, which is naturally not a large amount for these people, and they can be taken out quickly.

When Yuan Yao was busy with the payment of money with these people, he didn't know that a young man was mixed in his porridge shed.

It has been two days since Liu Ye fled from Chengde County.

The reason why he fled from Chengde County was not because he had committed any crime, but because he was forced to be helpless.

Liu Ye is a relative of the Han family, in the Huainan area, he is a famous person, and his ancestor is the son of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, the canonized king of Huaiyang.

It's a pity that the family is in the middle of the road, and by Liu Ye's generation, there is no power, and only some money is left in the clan.

However, it is precisely because of this that Liu Ye's family has a great reputation in Chengde, Huainan.

Coincidentally, the recent war in Huaibei, the battle between Yuan Shu and Cao Cao and Lu Bu spread to the surrounding areas.

Many people from Huaibei fled to Huainan, and even felt that Huainan was not safe enough, and wanted to continue to flee to the Jiangdong area.

The bandit forces entrenched in the vicinity of Chengde are the biggest instigators of them.

The local area of Huainan has always been a state of thieves and bandits.

In each county, there are several intricate bandit forces to a greater or lesser extent.

For example, Chen Ce, a bandit in Lujiang County that Yuan Yao eliminated before, there are also several powerful mountain bandits in Huainan.

Among them, the most powerful one is named Zheng Bao.

This person is brave and resolute, with outstanding talent and force, taking advantage of the chaos in the world at the end of the Han Dynasty, Zheng Bao also took advantage of the situation to win over the clan brothers and occupy Chaohu Lake to support the army and respect himself.

When the strength is strong, there are tens of thousands of people. In addition, not long ago, people were going to eliminate Chen Ce, a big thief in Lujiang County. Most of the remnants of Chen Ce also defected to Zheng Bao.

Therefore, Zheng Bao's strength was further improved, but Zheng Bao was not happy about it.

Don't look at his strength getting stronger and stronger, but he is more and more worried that his life still has a few days to live.

Because the most powerful bandit leader in Huainan was not Zheng Bao, but Chen Ce, a bandit who had been entrenched in the first-line sky canyon for more than 10 years and fought against the imperial court.

Chen Ce was surrounded and suppressed by thousands of officials and soldiers, and he was able to block the officials and soldiers, thus becoming a famous bandit.

But such a powerful bandit leader was suddenly wiped out in just a few days.

And that's just a little bit of a little-known person.

This news reached Zheng Bao's ears, but Zheng Bao was frightened.

Zheng Bao realized that it was not how strong they were, but because the imperial court didn't really want to use real money to exterminate them.

Once the imperial court really wants to exterminate them, it can destroy them in an instant by dispatching a large army.

Especially as the wars in Huaibei became more and more frequent, not to mention the ordinary people, even the thieves who occupied the mountains began to be affected.

The presence of many large armies in the nearby garrison also made their lives start to become fearful.

Once the imperial court is unable to make contributions on the battlefield and uses them as bandits to vent their anger, they are at risk of being exterminated at any time.

Thinking of this, Zheng Bao realized that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time.

So he thought that he would take these men and horses with his men and horses and move south to Jiangdong.

But Zheng Bao's gang of bandits is not the same as other bandits.

A bandit under Zheng Bao's command. Most of them are clan brothers and local ordinary people, these people are not completely bandits, they may usually be just ordinary people in the local area, only to wait until the harvest is not good to instantly transform into bandits.

It is not that they have no land or property, and the displaced people can abandon their wealth at any time and go to the Jiangdong region instead.

But this gang of bandits can't, they don't want to leave the place where they have lived for generations.

So Zheng Bao's plan to move south was in vain.

But Zheng Bao didn't give up, although it was difficult to directly order those bandits, he still thought of a way.

That is, to find a local person with a high reputation to persuade these people to move south together and go to Jiangdong.

This person is naturally none other than Liu Ye.

Don't look at Liu Ye as just a young man in his early twenties, but he has a high reputation in Chengde County.

Mainly because he has done a few more sensational things before.

When Liu Ye was 7 years old, his mother died. Before he died, he told Liu Ye that his father's favored servant had a bad character and often did things to frame others. His mother feared that after her death, these villains would mislead her father and cause chaos.

His mother wants Liu Ye and his brother to get rid of the villain around his father when they grow up.

Liu Ye, who was young, took this matter to heart.

When he reached the age of 13, he beheaded his father's favored waiter according to his mother's orders, and then calmly pleaded guilty to his father. His father Liu Pu was originally furious, but after knowing Liu Ye's motives, he also admired him very much and did not criticize him.

This incident happened in Chengde, which caused a lot of sensation, and Liu Ye's name also made many people know.

What made Liu Ye even more famous was Xu Shao's comments on Liu Ye in Runan later.

Xu Shao of Runan was a famous critic in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. This person is rarely famous, good at evaluation, and regularly holds "Yuedan Reviews".

This person once commented on Cao Cao, saying that Cao Cao was a capable minister who ruled the world and a traitor in troubled times.

Cao Cao was quite satisfied and left with joy.

Similarly, Xu Shao also commented on Liu Ye, saying that Liu Ye has the talent of the world.
