Chapter 561 Emperor Song: "Sixth! Arrogant! ”

"Ten more steps!

Ten! Nine! Eight! Seven! Six! Five... Four! Three! Two! One!

Congratulations to this little brother for moving the last standing log to the city gate!

The last hundred pounds of grain belong to him! ”

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the last lucky man managed to transport the last standing log to the city gate, got a hundred catties of grain from the Tatar guards, and smiled happily.

The rest of the crowd sighed with disappointment on their faces.

Today's Xifeng Guancheng is different from yesterday, a large number of people have walked out of their homes, and there is only one destination, that is, in front of the garrison house.

Due to the success of the thin man yesterday, and Li Lin's keeping of his promise, the people went out of their homes one after another, wanting to become one of the ten standing trees that were moved, so as to obtain 100 catties of food.

It's just that there are many people who have the same idea as them, and even if they ran over early, there are still more people who still haven't grabbed the qualifications.

In this way, everyone could only hope that someone would challenge and fail, so they stayed at the scene with their own minds, and watched the people who grabbed the last and followed the standing wood one by one, dragging the standing wood to the city wall as best they could, and finally got a hundred catties of food and went home happily.

This made everyone very disappointed, and when they were about to leave, they suddenly saw a convoy coming in from the direction of the city gate, the convoy was not the most important, the main thing was that the convoy was densely packed with food, and it was being transported to the city one by one!

Everyone was boiling in an instant, and followed the convoy all the way to the gate of the garrison mansion.

Seeing everyone coming with the convoy, Li Lin had a smile on his face, walked to the front of the convoy, and faced everyone.

Lang Sheng said: "Everyone, Xiaosheng introduce myself first, I am Li Lin, a graduate of the first phase of the Yunzhou County Political Affairs School, and I came to Xifengkou to recruit people to settle down in Yunzhou County on the order of King Yun.

I believe that through those ten standing trees, everyone already knows our integrity.

Now I announce that from now on, all the people who sign up and are willing to go to Yunzhou County with me to settle down will be given a settling-in fee worth two taels of silver, or ten cents a pound of grain according to the original grain price!

As long as you are willing to go with us, you will give it immediately, this food is here, and no one will be lied! ”

As soon as he said this, everyone immediately became noisy, but after a while, the noise gradually quieted down.

Two taels of silver is naturally nothing, but if it is exchanged for ten cents and one pound of grain, then it can be exchanged for two hundred catties to save some food, which is enough for the family to last until next summer.

If there are two people, it will be able to last until autumn.

Can...... Leave the Xifeng Outlet and follow this so-called Cloud King's people to Yunzhou County?

Not to mention that they haven't heard of any Cloud King, as the people at the bottom, they may not even know who the emperor is.

It's really the prince of the imperial court, but what kind of place is Yunzhou County? It was the most inhospitable northern frontier in the legend, relying on the Tatar steppe, if where to go was really to live?

Will it be sold to the Tatars as slaves by King Yun, so many Tatars came this time, could it be that this is also a conspiracy of the Tatars?

Heavy worries flashed in everyone's hearts, and no one dared to come forward.

Eventually, however, some people are cornered.

"I'll go! Is it really to give food now? ”

"Naturally!"

Li Lin saw that someone jumped out, so he naturally nodded immediately.

In the crowd, the wife of the person who spoke just now grabbed her husband with a worried face.

"The master, no! Who knows what you're going for, you can't go! ”

The man patted the woman's hand and sighed, "What can I do if I don't go?" The family has run out of food, and my father and mother and the dolls have to eat, so I went, and the food in exchange for it will at least last you until next summer, and then it will be better.

You don't have to worry about me here, I'm a strong laborer, no matter how they don't kill casually, as long as I am obedient, I will have a chance to live, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely come back! ”

"Boss! Woowoowoo......"

The woman wept into tears, and she held her husband and wept bitterly.

After a long time, the man stepped forward, and Li Lin asked, "Do you want grain or silver?" ”

"Food!"

The man said without hesitation.

Li Lin nodded, and with a wave of his hand, someone immediately handed him two bags of 100 catties of grain.

The man took the food and said, "I'll go back and put the food back, don't worry that I won't run, I'll come back when I get the food, if you don't worry, you can let people follow me." ”

Li Lin waved his hand: "No need, I believe you!" ”

The man nodded, then turned away with his wife on his shoulders with the food.

And after the man left, and the others saw that they could really exchange for food, many of them who couldn't hold on anymore signed up regardless of how much.

Li Lin immediately asked the guards to register one by one, and at the same time, Li Lin shouted loudly: "The quota is only 20,000, first come, first served!" ”

When everyone heard that there was still a limit, they suddenly became more anxious, and some of the people who were still hesitant joined in directly.

It stands to reason that there should be 25,000 places for 50,000 taels.

It's just that Li Lin also took into account the food to be consumed on the way back to send them back, so he left 10,000 stone of grain to eat on the road.

20,000 people, 50 catties per person, enough to walk to the Hedong corridor, and more.

On the side of Xifengkou, Li Lin's recruitment action was finally held, and at the same time, all the border cities of Hedong County also ushered in the students of the Political Affairs School.

A large number of people suffering in Hedong were fooled by them towards the Hedong Corridor.

The local government and the government only turned a blind eye to their behavior.

There is no one to help them solve these problems, and they wish they could help them send them away, so how can they stop them?

And just when the people in Hedong were fooled into leaving their hometowns one by one.

Bianjing, the Imperial Palace.

Zhao Duan suddenly received a secret fold from Chen Du, the guard of the Yumen Gate!

Seeing Chen Du's name, Zhao Duan was obviously stunned, as the guard of Yumen Pass, there is only one reason why Chen Du usually gives himself a fold, that is, the Huns knock on the side!

But didn't the Huns just leave? Could it be again?

He was shocked!

I prayed in my heart and hurriedly opened the fold, and when I finished reading the contents of the fold, I suddenly blew my beard and glared angrily!

"This six! Feelings are thinking about me again!

He stole it before, but this time it's good, he actually blatantly let me give it to someone! Arrogant! Arrogant! Licentious!

Did he think that if he gave birth to a grandson, I would agree to him? He dreamed! ”

Zhao Duan threw the fold on the table, stood up, and walked around the room with his hands behind his back.

The anger on his face wanted to vent but he didn't know how to vent it, but when he thought about the silver in the current treasury, as well as the resettlement of millions of victims in Hedong and the cost of rebuilding the city, he couldn't afford to sit back in his position!

The treasury is out of money!

Although the Xiongnu did not rush through the new defense line, the materials, grain and grass consumed by holding on to the Xiongnu for so long were also a sky-high number.

Coupled with the pensions of the soldiers who died in the war and the rewards of meritorious soldiers, the court really ran out of money.

Even Qian Zhaoduan, who was gradually closing the city, planned to come out by himself, but it was useless to just build the city.

How to resettle the millions of people who have suffered from the military disaster and have no food to eat is a big problem!

At the end of the day, it's all about money!

But the court has no money, and he is about to run out of money!

He has been replenishing the treasury with internal funds, and he is almost empty!
