Chapter 31: The Four Counties of Nanzhong (Ask for Follow-up!) )

It's night.

The moon hangs high and the starry sky is shining.

A table of exquisite dishes and delicate wine aromas permeated the atmosphere of the banquet.

A variety of fine wines were served on the banquet table, and the aroma of wine overflowed. In the wine cup, there were crystal bubbles, and the gentle "pop" sound also came out, which made people salivate.

The dishes are the highlight of the banquet.

Fresh delicatessen dishes are served continuously, including steamed sea bass, braised pork, and delicious vegetables, and each dish is carefully selected.

The freshness of the ingredients and the skill of cooking are even more impressive. Each dish exudes a rich aroma that whets the appetite.

Many of the officials of the Yanfu Lieutenant had not tasted wine for months, and now they were drinking bitterly while thanking Liu Chan for his kindness.

In the center of the night banquet, Liu Chan was good at dancing with long sleeves, pulling the officials and Haoqiang of Shu County to drink wine, and in a few words, he said that Haoqiang donated his family wealth and reinforced Hanzhong.

Correspondingly, Liu Chan let twenty Haoqiang disciples of Shu County enter the martial arts.

Politics is always about exchange.

The so-called night banquet is a rare opportunity for low-level officials to break the precepts and open meat, but for Haoqiang officials, it is just a place to talk about business.

....

Chengdu.

Childe's Mansion.

Liu Chan got up from the bed, and immediately a beautiful maid stepped forward to serve and wash.

It was already three days ago when I came back from Shu County.

Liu Chan spent a few days, first to increase the production of Yanjing, and then to suggest to Captain Si Tie to improve the forging method, so that the speed of forging weapons and farm tools became much faster.

Leaving Chengdu for a few days is also to dispose of the paperwork that has been accumulated in Chengdu for several days.

After washing up, I had a simple breakfast.

Liu Chan had morning exercises with the students of the second phase of the martial arts hall in the school field of Gongzifu, and then tidied up his clothes a little, wiped his body, changed into an official robe, and went in the direction of the governor's mansion.

In the palace, Xu Jing, Liu Ba, Wu Yi, Dong He and others have been waiting on the side for a long time.

Liu Chan is responsible for staying in Chengdu, which is equivalent to the prince supervising the country, and now he is still young, in fact, he does not need to come to the government every day to ask, and the affairs can be solved by handing over to the officials.

Of course...

You can't come, but Liu Chan won't come, at least every few days to come over to ask about political affairs.

The purpose of this is, first, to learn how to manage government, and second, to make a good impression on officials.

"I'll wait to see Childe."

Liu Chan arrived at the government office, and dozens of officials in the government office all bowed to Liu Chan.

Among the dozens of officials, these are the main ones.

Dong He was mainly responsible for supervising the affairs of grain and grass in various places, Wu Yi was in charge of the defense of Chengdu, Liu Ba was in charge of the government of Shu County, and Xu Jing was in charge of civil affairs.

In addition, there are other Yizhou officials who are also among them.

Cheng Ji and He Zong are engaged in sacrificial wine, Gong Lu is engaged in Yizhou, and Yamen General and Li Hui are Gong Cao, who are in charge of personnel.

The group of heroes gathered, and the radish meeting.

Even Liu Bei brought most of the talents from General Zuo's Mansion to Hanzhong.

For example, Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng, Pang Yi, Yi Ji, Jian Yong, Lu Zhu and others are not in Chengdu now.

But these courtiers who stayed in Chengdu were not incompetent.

"You don't have to be polite, although Zen is left behind in Chengdu, but he is still young, and he is in charge of the government, and he is mostly study-oriented."

"Childe doesn't have to be humble, it's not the first day I've met Childe."

Gong Cao Li Hui hurriedly stepped forward to echo.

The rest of the group nodded.

In the past month, Liu Chan has also dealt with a lot of political affairs, and his style of action is not like that of a young man, but like an old official, with profound insights and uniqueness, and he can often intercept the pain points and deal with relevant matters perfectly.

"General Lang in charge of the army, bring me the documents on the grain and grass in various places in the past few days to have a look at it."

Dong He's official position is the general in charge of the army, and Zhuge Liang is the official of General Zuo's office, which is equivalent to Zhuge Liang's assistant, the outer herd of the special domain, and the internal cadre Jiheng, which belongs to Liu Bei's most core official of the central government.

"Childe, please take a look."

Liu Chan sat on the main seat, and Dong He placed a roll of bamboo slips in front of Liu Chan.

This is the amount of grain and grass he collected and recorded in various counties.

If it is not dealt with in advance, then what is now placed in front of Liu Chan's case is not just a bamboo slip, but a large stack of bamboo slips.

Unfolding the bamboo slips, Liu Chan looked at the contents of the bamboo slips carefully.

It wasn't long before his brows furrowed tightly.

Dong He was brewing words in his heart, thinking about how to explain the key points to Liu Chan, and didn't want Liu Chan to ask questions on the spot after reading the bamboo slips, but looked at Liu Ba and Xu Jing.

"Duke Liu, Duke Xu, can the officials have a good deal with civil affairs?"

"Old minister here."

Xu Jing brought up the important civil affairs that were going to be communicated.

It is about the aftermath of food conscription and conscription.

"General Zuo's aftermath of Changshi's aftermath is extremely sophisticated, and I don't have anything else to add, so I will follow what Changshi said."

Although Xu Jing was not liked by Liu Bei, there was no vanity under his fame.

As the nominally highest official position in Yizhou except for Liu Bei, Xu Jing's ability to handle things is beyond doubt.

"No."

Xu Jing's feelings for Liu Chan are very complicated, saying that he is the lord, he still has Liu Bei on his head, and he says that he is a student, but how can he be qualified to be Liu Chan's teacher?

Although he was originally General Zuo's long history, he was nominally the first person under Liu Bei, but he had no real power, so he was responsible for writing and receiving talents.

After Liu Chan became a stayer in Chengdu, he handed over the affairs of Yizhou's civil affairs to him.

This is a blessing of knowledge!

After handling the personnel and defense matters, Liu Chan glanced at Dong He and finally spoke.

"General Zhonglang, the amount of grain and grass levied doesn't seem to match!"

Liu Chan's face was calm, but everyone could feel Liu Chan's anger.

"The supply of grain and grass in the four counties of Nanzhong is becoming scarce day by day, and each county also sent 10,000 stones last month, and now the four counties of Nanzhong combined, there are no 10,000 stones, and there must be a cat in it!"

Dong He was already prepared in his heart, he stepped forward to salute Liu Chan, and said: "Most of the people in the four counties of Nanzhong are not registered, even if they are registered, it is difficult to collect taxes, and the people are also poor. ”

Xu Jing was also afraid that Liu Chan would be impulsive and disrupt the overall situation, and said: "Now that the tax on salt and iron has doubled, the rich and powerful have donated a lot of military funds, and the situation in Hanzhong is gradually stabilizing, even if the four counties in Nanzhong do not supply grain and grass, it is not unavoidable. ”

"Your thoughts, Zen knowledge."

Dong and Xu Jing and others naturally knew that the four counties in Nanzhong were not subject to Wang Hua.

But now is the special moment.

Hanzhong is at war!

In case there is chaos in the rear and it is not quickly suppressed, which threatens the safety of Chengdu and puts Chengdu at risk of not being protected, then the soldiers fighting in Hanzhong can still have the heart to stay in Hanzhong?

My wife and children are all in Chengdu, you let me play with my life in Hanzhong?

At that time...

I am afraid that the good situation of today will disappear.

But Liu Chan's thoughts are different from theirs!

The four counties in Nanzhong are not subject to the king?

Then fight until he is served!
