Chapter 296: Fighting for Hegemony: Dongfang Yu's Sorrow
Seeing Dongfang Yu so approachable and amiable, the old man's courage... Immediately it was a lot bigger.
"Male... Son... What are you? "The old man wants to speak and stop, the man with a human face and a beast's heart, he has seen a lot, one set on the surface and one behind the other, and he is amiable in front of him, after that! He turned his face and didn't recognize anyone.
Hehe!
Dongfang Yu shook his head helplessly, and said with a light smile: "Old man... Folks, do you think I'm like a bad person? ”
"No... Not like! The people shook their heads, "Bad people are not like Childe... The smile is so genuine! ”
"So! Wouldn't it be nice! Dongfang Yu said softly, "Don't be afraid, folks! Get up! ”
The people, in the midst of supporting each other, slowly got up. The bony arms and shriveled lips all showed the weakness and powerlessness of this group of people.
Dongfang Yu asked, "Old man, I don't know how long I haven't eaten?" ”
"Since... It's been five or six days since the last time I ate. The old man said with a trembling voice.
For five or six days, not to mention the people, even the soldiers, they can't bear it!
"Ziyuan, you take someone to get some food, the more the better." Dongfang Yu commanded at Xuan Ziyuan.
"No!" Xuan Ziyuan received the order, so he took four people to buy food on the street.
King Qin was full of pity, and naturally he couldn't see that the people under his command were hungry.
"Old man, can you tell me that you are all from there? How did the rich Han County become what it is today......" Dongfang Yu asked several questions, hoping to get all the information about Han County in the old man's mouth.
Alas!
The old man sighed and said helplessly: "Childe doesn't know! The old man and everyone are all people from Hanjun County, working and farming every day, paying taxes, and the family can have some left! ”
"It's not going to be on the streets, sleeping in the open, and not hungry. But since Liu Xin and Zhang Han fought, more than a dozen battles have been fought in this part of Han County. When the officials and the army fight, those of us who are ordinary people naturally become the targets of their exploitation. ”
"Xiong An has been in Han County for a year, uniting with the Han County Gate Lords and Clans, bullying and oppressing the people of Han County, and forcibly collecting taxes, causing the people in my city to be ruined and killed. There are tens of thousands of homeless people like this in Han County. ”
Dongfang Yu frowned, "So much? ”
Tens of thousands, isn't that a small number? If you really want to solve it, it's a big problem.
"Young master, I've bought food!" At this time! Xuan Ziyuan bought all the buns in the entire bun shop.
The pungent fragrance immediately wafted over, and the eyes of the people were also seduced.
Bun... They hadn't eaten in a long time, perhaps! They have forgotten what it tastes like!
"Oh!"
Dongfang Yu reacted and hurriedly said: "Distribute it to everyone, don't grab food." ”
"Is this food really for us?"
"Gollum!"
……
In the eyes of this group of people who have not eaten for a long time, such a simple bun is more precious than gold and silver.
"Male... Childe, are you giving us all this food? The old man asked weakly, he had lived in Han County for decades, and he had never seen the son of that family, and he would give them the benefits of these poor people.
Well!
Dongfang Yu nodded noncommittally, "Naturally, it will be distributed to everyone." ”
Subsequently! Dongfang Yu greeted his subordinates and distributed the steamed buns and buns to everyone one by one.
"Come on, go get some soup!" Seeing everyone, the impatient thing is to stuff the buns and steamed buns into the mouth, but the thirst for a long time will inevitably lead to difficulty in swallowing, or the tragedy of choking to death will occur.
"No!"
……
"Strategist, come out with the solitary!" Dongfang Yu turned around and whispered in Xu Meng's ear.
Xu Meng stayed for a moment! followed Dongfang Yu and walked out of the alley.
"Whew!"
"Strategist, let's talk about it! What's the best way to go? Dongfang Yu asked.
The two walked and talked.
Xu Meng stroked his beard and pondered: "The minister thinks that the problem of eating for the people of Han County must be solved now, as well as the resumption of farming, as well as economic problems?" ”
"What's the solution?" Dongfang Yu asked again.
Xu Meng frowned, and said admittedly: "Right now, when the problem of eating the people is solved, the king can set up porridge sheds at the four city gates of Han County, southeast, northwest and northwest, and the grain can be transferred from the army to solve the urgent need first!" ”
"Beiliang is only a few days away from Han County, and the king can immediately write a military order, send it back to Beiliang, and order Prime Minister Zuo to adjust the grain and grass urgently, at most ten days, grain and wheat can arrive."
"And then! That is, Han County has destroyed the economy and farming system, how to recover, how to govern, and who to use, is a big problem? ”
Dongfang Yu is also worried about this.
If it was before, Yang Xiu, Shang Haibo, Wang Su and other ministers were relatively idle, but now! The Qin State implemented a reform system, the three provinces and six departments, and the officials of the Qin State were all full, and they could still be divided there, and the new person would govern Han County for him?
"Huh?"
"Think about it again when you're lonely?" Dongfang Yu said helplessly.
"Let's go back first!"
No way! The generals under his command are more than civilians, and once they attack the city and seize the land, they really have to visit the celebrities in various states and places.
Let's see! The two chatted and chatted, but they were far away from the alley.
"Humph!"
"You don't have long eyes, don't you know that this realm is covered by the master? is so blatant, buying food and drinking for these wastes that are not even as good as pigs and dogs, you might as well hand over the money to buy food to the master, maybe! I'm so happy, I can also reward you with an official! A long man with a tilted head and a slanted head reprimanded Xuan Ziyuan and the others angrily.
But as a swordsman, Xuan Ziyuan's own cultivation and endurance are very comparable, and he only cares about his own work, and he doesn't pay attention to this person.
"Don't be afraid, folks! Hurry up and eat it! Xuan Ziyuan admonished.
But the people who were still gobbling it up just now had already put the food in their hands to their mouths, and they didn't dare to take any more bites.
"Master Gu, let's ...... It has nothing to do with this little brother, it's all because I'm greedy and stubborn to hold on to the little brother, so ... will ......"
"What do you say, old man?" Before the old man could finish speaking, Xuan Ziyuan interrupted his words. "This is to forget the son, specially invite everyone, everyone just eat."
"Humph!"
"Steamed buns, steamed buns, such good things, are also edible for this group of inferior people?"
"Today! Who would dare to take a bite? Whose leg will I break? "This person is none other than the only son of the Gu family, the three major scholar clans of Han County, Gu Wu.
is brutal by nature, and in Han County, it can be said that bad things have been done.
"Oh! But I want to see how you will break their legs today. "Dongfang Yu saw from afar that something was wrong here, so! Quicken up and come over.
After hearing Gu Wu's words, he immediately became angry.
