Soon, many of the officials present put away all their thoughts that they should and should not have, and spoke in unison.
"Let the governor do whatever he wants!"
When Tan Lun saw this, he sneered, put away the chaotic thoughts in his heart, and immediately gave instructions.
"In this case, I will make it clear to you. After a while, the men sent by Mr. Xu Ge personally will arrive in Fujian to assist me."
When Tan Lun said this, he paused for a moment and then continued.
"Therefore, I hope that you can act with sincerity and not use any crooked ideas, otherwise..."
When Tan Lun said this, he stopped talking, and many officials present also learned the importance of this matter from Tan Lun's mouth.
"What, Mr. Xu Ge actually sent someone to help!"
"Could it be that this matter..."
At this moment, countless possibilities flashed through the minds of many officials present, but the only thing that was certain was that if they dared to do something secretly behind the scenes, they would definitely die in an ugly way!
After all, this is the current deputy minister of the cabinet. He can easily crush his "little shrimp" to death with just a little move of his fingers.
Seeing that the beating was almost done, Tan Lun nodded, then changed the subject and continued.
"But, if someone does a good job in this matter, I won't mind saying a nice word for him when the time comes!"
As soon as Tan Lun finished speaking, many officials present were excited and became excited.
"What, the governor is so generous and willing to introduce me to people from Qingliu!"
"In this way, I will be able to advance to the next level soon. If I continue like this, I may never have a chance to be promoted in my life!"
"Your Majesty the Governor, you are a kind man!"
An official at the scene expressed emotion after hearing what Tan Lun said.
But soon, many officials present noticed a very serious problem, that is, according to Tan Lun's previous words, only a very small number of people present could get this opportunity.
Thinking of this, these officials no longer shared the same hatred as before, and looked at each other with a little fear in their eyes.
"By the way, Mr. Wang has not been promoted for many years. If he doesn't get promoted, he will do whatever it takes to please the governor. I have to be careful about him!"
"Master Zhang only cares about getting promoted and getting rich, and he doesn't care about the life and death of the people. If someone like him is allowed to go up, then the people of Ming Dynasty will suffer. If you ask me, I have to let this official come!"
"Hehe, if you can join Qingliu, your promotion and fortune will be just around the corner..."
"Hmph, how can we let the people live and work in peace and contentment with these insects? I'll give you some clues after I get promoted!"
Seeing that the heat was almost there, Tan Lun immediately began to assign specific matters.
"Before this, I want you to do a good job in publicity work, let the common people know about this matter, and make corresponding registrations to ensure that there will be no corresponding omissions!"
"I will leave the specific propaganda work to..."
After Tan Lun assigned all the specific matters, these officials were as excited as if they had been given blood. They wished they could leave the government office now and go to supervise this matter.
"Well, I have called you here today just for this matter. You can leave first!"
"As you command, my lord!"
After receiving Tan Lun's instructions, many officials present stood up from their seats and saluted respectfully.
…
It has to be said that these officials were very efficient. Soon, corresponding notices were posted on the bulletin boards in the city. Not only that, they also sent corresponding officers to nearby villages to vigorously publicize this event. thing.
At this moment, a large number of people have gathered around the bulletin board in the city. A young man who can read and write and is dressed as a scholar is reading the content posted on it aloud to everyone.
"From now on, all people who have no land at home can go to the government office to register their name, place of origin and other information!"
"Anyone whose name is left in the government register will be given a piece of land by the government for farming at its discretion."
"In addition, people who do not have land must guarantee each other. If the government finds out that they have committed fraud, not only will the land they originally received be taken back, but these people will also be severely punished!"
"This announcement takes effect from today. In addition..."
After the young man dressed as a scholar read all the contents of the notice posted by the government, there was no doubt that it caused an uproar.
"Wantfully tampering with government announcements is a capital offense! Are you sure you read it correctly?"
An old man with gray hair and a stooped figure stepped forward and asked the young man.
When the young man saw this, he nodded and said helplessly.
"Old man, that's really what's above."
"It's really weird. We are already thankful that the government doesn't raise taxes, but it actually wants to allocate land to us!"
After listening to the young man's explanation, the old man's face was full of suspicion and he immediately spoke.
"If you don't believe it, here, there is a team of officers coming over there, you can ask yourself!"
Everyone looked in the direction pointed by the young man and saw a group of officials approaching here. When the people who had been watching before saw this, they all dispersed and did not dare to approach at all.
And just when the old man was about to leave with the crowd, he was far behind because of his old age and frailty, and his movements were too slow. Therefore, he was quickly overtaken by the team of officers.
Seeing that there was no way to escape, the old man could only stop and bow.
"I've seen Mr. Cha!"
"You old thing, you still want to run away when you see me, let me teach you a lesson!"
At this moment, an official came forward and wanted to follow the past practice of punching and kicking the old man to vent his dissatisfaction.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the commander on the side: "You filthy thing, what do you want to do? Come back here!"
After the words fell, the previous officer saw this and had no choice but to return to the team angrily.
Then, the official got off the sedan, came to the old man, and asked softly.
"Old man, are you okay?"
When the old man saw this situation, the look of fear on his face became even worse, and he trembled.
"Sir, I am... okay!"
"If nothing happens, I'll leave first..."
After the old man finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave. Years of experience told him that the man in front of him must have a plan for him!
And I was just a bad old man who was half-buried, so what did these officials care about?
The more the old man thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, so he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
Unexpectedly, the official from before took three steps at a time and blocked the old man's way. He said slowly with a warm smile on his face.
"Old man, have you read what's on the bulletin board?"
After hearing this, the old man's face was full of warning. After thinking for a long time, he responded.
"Sir, I have already read the content above!"
"Well, just read the above content. Did you know that the government is about to distribute land to the people who do not have land?"
The official saw the expression on the old man's face and asked immediately.
"Is it true?"
After hearing this, the old man couldn't help but hesitate.
"Of course it's true. If you don't believe it, you can go to the government office to find out in person. At that time, there will be a dedicated person responsible for registering your name and place of origin!"
"Those who receive land must guarantee each other to prove that they do not own the land. If one of them commits fraud, everyone will be implicated!"
"In addition, the more people who go to the government office with you to register their names and place of origin, the more fertile and larger the land you can allocate."
Upon seeing this, the official added another sentence.
"Thank you, Sir, for answering my questions. I will inform others about this matter!"
After hearing what the official said, the old man responded respectfully.
"Well, that's great. I'm looking forward to seeing you in the government office. You can go!"
"Yes, sir!"
After the old man saluted respectfully to the official, he staggered away.
