Chapter 80: The aftermath of Changyi and the wind in Chang'an
Under Liu He's deliberate intervention, Changyiguo's "fighting tigers" and "swatting flies" gradually subsided.
In the next few dozen days, Changyi Kingdom was even calmer than before.
Several things that Liu He had already arranged were carried out in an orderly manner, and it seemed that nothing had changed, and it seemed that something had changed.
The people's spring ploughing is proceeding in an orderly manner, and this small turmoil in the city does not seem to have much impact on them.
Li Anding gradually set up a workshop in the grange outside the city, and the craftsmen he recruited also moved in one by one.
It is expected that in another month or two, it will be possible to mass-produce wooden farming tools using the flow method.
And the various other processes will also be carried out in an orderly manner, one by one.
Meng Ban and his family were the first workers to move into the workshop, and they had a lot of luggage, and they took almost all the belongings they could with them.
He originally wanted to go back to Shangliulu more often in the future, but after seeing the turmoil in the city, he completely dispelled this idea - staying with His Highness is the most appropriate and safe thing.
A few are happy, a few are sad.
Compared with Meng Ban, who is in good spirits on happy occasions, Li Zheng Hanping in Shangliulu has experienced ups and downs.
He was first confiscated of all his family property, and his family was almost made an official slave.
But just when he lost all hope, everything suddenly took a turn for the worse - all the possessions were returned, not even a single chicken was missing.
When the Han family learned that His Royal Highness the King of Changyi had specially lent the family property to them temporarily, everyone wept bitterly, thanked Dade, and kowtowed a few times in the direction of the palace.
Those merchants like him also took back their family property, and they all gave birth to a kind of luck for the rest of their lives.
The lives of the little people have returned to peace, and the lives of the big people like An Le Xiang are back on track.
Of course, the officialdom of the entire Changyi country has been purged from top to bottom, although it is inevitable that there will be some fish that have slipped through the net, but the atmosphere has also been boosted.
An Lexiang refocused his energy on the matter of the plan, and Zhang Poji also began to prepare for the matter of drinking.
There are now 850,000 mouths in Changyi Kingdom, and there are 4 taels of gold per 1,000 people, so the total amount of gold in Changyi Kingdom is 3,400 taels of gold, that is, 170 catties, or 1.7 million yuan.
If Tian Bu didn't find out that they were a series of rats, I am afraid that the gold of Changyi Kingdom would have to empty all the family funds.
Zhang Wuji, who supervised the production of gold, couldn't help but admire Liu He for a while, if it wasn't for His Highness's precautions, I am afraid that something would really be wrong.
However, what made Zhang Poji feel a little puzzled was that Liu Hexing moved the crowd and took the risk to make such a big move, but at this moment, he hid in the palace again.
His Highness had come to the engineer once, except when he had first minted the gold, and he never appeared again, and even seemed to have forgotten the whole thing.
Zhang Wujian personally went to invite Liu He several times, but he was blocked by the pavilion guards guarding the gate of the palace.
"Zhang Qing does things, and the widow can rest assured."
This is the only sentence that Liu He brought out.
Zhang Wuji only knew that Liu He valued the matter of offering gold in his heart, but how did he know that Liu He valued the major events in the world more seriously?
Zhang Wuji couldn't see through these things, but he vaguely felt a little weird, but apart from planning a few words with An Lexiang in private, he didn't say anything more.
All the people in Changyi who are not elm pimples can know that something is about to happen.
On 10 April, the two men sent out by Liu He returned.
One is Guo Kai, who went to Dayozawa to assassinate Song Bing, and the other is Ruan Yang, who was sent to the west to inquire about the use of farm tools such as Quyuan plows.
All they brought back was good news.
Guo Kai moved quickly, and with the help of Jian Kou, he easily found Song Bing's lair, and then quietly killed the bandit.
Half of the Song bandits were once Guo Kai's subordinates, and all of them had heard of his name, so as soon as the first evil died, these people bowed to Guo Kai and asked Guo Kai to join the gang, and the two hundred money that was robbed were naturally offered.
To say that this Guo Kai is also a trustworthy person, he ignored the suggestions of the bandits, and after letting them transport the money ashore, he dismissed them in advance - of course, Guo Kai distributed the two million money to these poor people who were also forced to helpless.
Jian Kou and the others were so angry that they jumped to their feet, but they didn't want to say anything, because everyone knew that this Guo Kai was already a guest of His Royal Highness the King of Changyi.
It's just that this guest didn't have the slightest respect for the lord, and he threw down a sentence at the gate of the palace, "A certain place where you can't get used to living in this carved beams and pillars, and you will secretly help when you go to Chang'an", and then there is no trace of it.
I don't know if I hid in Beiguo, or secretly hid in the palace of Changyi.
In contrast, Ruan Yang actually came back early, he walked to the border between Dingtao Kingdom and Chenliu County, and did not go back, but came back immediately.
He brought back two messages, the first one was good news and the second one was not bad news.
The good news is that the farm tools invented by Liu He have already been used by farmers in Dingtao on a small scale.
Although the workmanship is a little worse, it is much better than the original old-fashioned farm tools.
Especially the Quyuan plow, which has not been used for too long in Changyi Country, has already been used by people in Dingtao Country.
People from several surrounding counties seem to know that there will always be new agricultural tools born in spring and autumn ploughing in Changyi in the past two years, so people from other counties have known about it early on.
Liu He is very satisfied with this news.
As for the second Ruan Yang, Liu He was even more satisfied with the news that he couldn't tell the good from the bad.
When Ruan Yang approached Chen Liuguo, he heard a businessman from Chang'an passing on an incident.
Since the beginning of spring this year, the county official has been ill, and he has vomited blood four or five times in succession during the court meeting, and the holy body is getting weaker and weaker day by day.
The imperial court searched for famous doctors in Sanfu, but it never seemed to improve, but it was gradually collapsing, and it is said that it has reached the point where it can no longer listen to things.
The reason why Liu He is satisfied with this problem is not that he is cold-blooded, let alone that he does not have the slightest pity for his uncle.
On the contrary, he had a feeling of sympathy with the county officials.
Who knows, the lonely county official has not thought of various ways to pro-government?
Given the opportunity, everyone wants to use it.
Liu Fuling can't do it, then replace me Liu He.
With the blood of Gaozu in his body, no one is absurd and incompetent.
From this day on, Liu He went deeper and simpler.
Just to wait for the summons from Chang'an!
