Yang Anxuan's eyes fell on Sima Zhao Tian and said: "Zhao Sima, twenty-three of the people who followed Yu south this time were killed and thirty-eight were disabled. We must provide generous compensation."
Zhao Tian said in a deep voice: "The fool will send the pension money and food to their families."
In the Jin Dynasty, the pension system for those killed in war was to provide a hundred shi of corn and a thousand yuan of cash to their families for burial. Those with grandparents, parents, wives and no children or grandchildren would be given five shi of corn per person per month. The injured would be compensated according to the severity of their injuries.
Yang Anxuan stood up and said, "Soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country should not let their families shed tears. When the fallen soldiers returned home for burial, the local government sent people to pay homage. In addition to the pension money and grain stipulated by the court, their families were given twenty acres of fertile land. During family holidays, I send someone to express my condolences.”
"Children in the family can go to the countryside to study. If there are only orphans and widows left, the government will support them. If they are cold and hungry, they will be held accountable to the rank of the township and the county captain." Yang Anxuan continued.
Zhao Tian was a soldier and knew that the families of those who died in the war were having a hard time. He was once worried that his wife and daughter would not be able to live well after his death. Yang Anxuan's decision made those who died in the war smile.
Feeling something in his heart, Zhao Tianhu had tears in his eyes, cupped his fists and said, "I would like to thank the prefect for your kindness on behalf of the soldiers."
Yang Anxuan said solemnly: "You and the soldiers died together on the battlefield, how could you not care about the robe? Those disabled soldiers were rewarded with three wounds on their bodies and one rank, and those whose limbs were broken were rewarded with one rank. They were divided into five acres according to their severity. If the soldiers have twenty acres of farmland, they can return to the fields after serving in the army for three years and be given ten acres of fertile land.”
Everyone in the hall was buzzing. Governor Yang was really kind to these soldiers. In three years, the soldiers could be retired and given ten acres of land.
Seeing everyone's confusion, Yang Anxuan said sternly: "Generals died in a hundred battles, and heroes returned in ten years. If there were no soldiers fighting bloody battles on the battlefield, how could you all enjoy peace? Don't forget, Luoyang was besieged last year."
What he said made everyone horrified. Now that the Yan State is retreating steadily, Tuoba Gui, the lord of June, officially named the country "Wei". In July, he moved the capital to Pingcheng and built palaces, ancestral temples, and sheji. After Qin's defeat in Luoyang, it actively prepared for war and prepared for a snowy day. shame.
If Hu soldiers go south, their families and people will be destroyed, and they can only rely on Yang Anxuan and the county soldiers under his command.
"Recruit five civil servants to join the army, teach military rules, teach calligraphy to the soldiers, and write family letters on their behalf. They can be paid according to the captain's salary. When there are vacancies in the county's travellers, pavilion chiefs, bandit arrests, prison history, and county soldiers, priority will be given to them. Choose from veterans."
No matter how shocked everyone was, Governor Yang treated the county army so favorably that even the clan army could not compare with him. Was he trying to turn the county army into a private army?
Yang Anxuan also had an idea for the placement of wounded soldiers. Later generations of rural warriors hid soldiers among the people. This approach is worth learning from.
"Disabled soldiers return to the countryside to be recuperated and receive a salary of a hundred stones. They train farmers during slack periods and organize the able-bodied to form a rural protection team to maintain law and order. Farmers who participate in the training can receive half of their service, and night patrols can receive another half of their service. If they exceed their service, they will be charged the same amount. Settlement is three stones per month."
Yang Anxuan had this idea when he was rescuing the people of Yanshi City. Yang Anxuan felt deeply regretful that the hundreds of thousands of people in Yanshi City were surrendering their hands and obeying orders in front of the Qin soldiers.
In the future, when Hu soldiers move south, it will be impossible to resist them with thousands of county troops alone. If the people can be organized and have the courage to fight when facing the enemy, and to paraphrase the words of a great man, fight a people's war, then there will be a chance of victory.
Sima Zhaotian brought what Yang Taishou said in the government office lobby to the military camp, and there was thunderous cheers immediately. Many soldiers were so excited that their eyes filled with tears. From now on, serving as a soldier and eating food is no longer a hard labor.
The news that Governor Yang decided to establish Xiang schools in various townships caused a stir in Runan. The three elders in the countryside received a notice from the county government. Regarding the establishment of school buildings, the government sent people to announce that no money or food would be required for enrollment, and only two pieces of dried bacon would be given to the teacher. , many people are interested in enrolling their children in school.
Official documents were posted stating that merchants who donated more than 100 dan to help students can enroll their nephews in school. In just half a month, all counties in Runan County received a total of more than 28,000 dan of corn.
In the hearts of merchants in Runan, Governor Yang was a rare good official. He did not look down on merchants and was willing to erect monuments for merchants. This time, he allowed merchants' nephews to be eligible to go to school. Donating some money and food was nothing.
The gold seized and the money raised turned into a trickling stream, nourishing the land of Runan. For the people of Runan, the government's use of grain to raise workers to build schools was a major matter for their families.

My brother is considering whether to apply for a job as a teacher. Ordinary people are asking about the procedures for sending their children to study. They are trying their best to cultivate more acres of land so that the whole family will not go hungry and cold. But the young people are asking when the county army will recruit soldiers. In the countryside, Do you want to participate in the organized hometown protection team...
The specific methods of administration depended on Xin He, Zhao Tian, Deng Yuan and officials of all sizes in the county. Yang Anxuan paid close attention to the news of the court's suppression of the rebellion.
When the news of Xunyang's alliance came, Yang Anxuan knew that the historical trend had not changed much because of his appearance, and it was a fact that his father took over Xiangyang.
In troubled times, everyone relies on their own methods. Whether you are involved in it actively or passively, you must be prepared for contingency. Yang Anxuan knows that people who travel through time will bleed and die if they are hit by swords and arrows.
The inertia of the wheel of history cannot be changed by Yang Anxuan now, but Yang Anxuan is trying his best to exert influence. If he cannot change the general trend, he can at least change the fate of one or two people. There is one person whose fate Yang Anxuan must change, and that is the person in his life. The noble Xi Hui.
It can be said that Yang Anxuan was able to grow rapidly, and Xi Hui was the biggest helper. If Xi Hui had not designated him as a top or middle grade, he would not have the opportunity to go to the capital, and there would be no future opportunities.
According to normal development, he would be classified as a fourth-rank official at most, and he would seek an eighth-rank official position in a state or county. Even if he had the chance, he would not go beyond seventh-rank officials. With the advent of troubled times, he would wander around, unable to control his fate.
Yang Anxuan remembered that the history books recorded that Xi Hui was killed by Yin Zhongkan in Yangkou, and the time should be next year. Yang Anxuan decided to go to Xiangyang to visit his father later in the year, and escorted Xi Hui to the capital to take up his post.
In Jiankang City, after the Sanfang Town Rebellion, Sima Daozi decided to strengthen the defense of the capital and concentrate power in the hands of his own family.
In the name of the emperor, he decreed that Sima Dewen, king of Langya, be appointed as the general of the Wei, and the three divisions of Kaifu Yitong were appointed; Sima Yuanxian was appointed as the leader of the army; the leading general Wang Ya was appointed as the minister Zuopushe; the Yanqing two prefectures governed by Jingkou were changed to For Xuzhou, Xie Yan, the former Zuopu She, was appointed as the general of the Wei and moved to Xuzhou as the governor; Liu Gai, the former Xuzhou governor, moved to the Northern Qingzhou governor (the seat of Qingzhou was originally in Dongyang City. After crossing the river, the overseas Chinese settled in Qingzhou in Guangling, and later recovered Dongyang City. Located in Beiqingzhou). .
Liu Laozhi took over the military affairs of the seven states of Yan, Qing, Ji, You, Bing, Xu, Yang, and Jinling, and became the commander of the Beifu Army. However, his official position was still the prefect of Jinling, the internal history of Nanpeng City, and the auxiliary of the country. General, under the jurisdiction of Xie Yan.

Yuzhou is a place where merchants are popular. Ingenuity is a common practice and there are many people doing business. Runan is located at a strategic location, and there are many people doing business from the north to the south.
To the west of Xinxi City is a deep courtyard with white walls and black tiles, with towering double-eaves towers and densely covered pavilions and waterside pavilions. Most of the wealthy businessmen in the city live here, and Qi Zhai is among them.
Qi Yuan was originally highly respected among the merchants. As the day progressed, Governor Yang and Qi Yuan went up the mountain side by side. The merchants in the city were honored, which further established the old man's position in the business world.
A servant walked along the corridor to Yiqiutang, where Mr. Qi lived, and presented the greeting card.
Qi Yuan is over sixty years old, with gray beard and hair, but his waist is straight, his voice is loud, and he is energetic.
The eldest son Qi Sheng saw his father thinking deeply after reading the greeting post, and asked: "Sir, whose post is it?"
Qi Yuan handed the invitation to his son and said, "It belongs to Governor Yang. Please attend the banquet at Qingfeng Tower for my father."
Qi Sheng said: "The Chinese New Year is only a few months away. Could it be that Governor Yang has come up with another way to get money and food?"
Qi Yuan stretched out his hand to stroke his beard and said, "Donate to fund education. My father has already donated a thousand stones of corn, so Qi'er and Shen'er can study in the county."
Qi Sheng asked in confusion: "How can the county school in the government compare with the family school?"
"The main purpose of letting Qi'er and Shen'er go to the county school is to let them make friends. Governor Yang has made great efforts to establish schools, and there are many children of noble families in the county schools. It is worth spending some money to make friends."
The three-day invitation was scheduled for noon on November 29th, and the location was Qingfeng Tower. Prefect Zhou resigned and returned to his hometown to recuperate. Yang Anxuan still looked after Qingfeng Tower out of consideration for his kindness.
"Sheng'er, go and find out whether Yang Taishou is asking for his father alone, or whether he is inviting other people in the city." Qi Yuan ordered.
The next day, Qi Sheng reported to his father that none of the merchants in the city had received invitations from Governor Yang. It seemed that they had invited Qi Yuan alone. Qi Yuan was puzzled and had to go to the banquet on time.
A quarter before noon, Qi Yuan's ox cart arrived at Qingfeng Tower. I thought it was too early, but I didn't expect that Yang Anxuan, dressed in a green robe, was already waiting in front of the door.
Qi Yuan got out of the car and apologized. Yang Anxuan said with a smile: "Qi Weng is old, so it is only natural for me to come to greet him."
When you treat others with courtesy, you must ask for something, and Qi Yuan is ready to shed some blood.
Yang Anxuan and Qi Yuan went upstairs side by side. The shopkeeper Zhou Yu personally served the dishes, and after toasting the wine, he left. There were only four people in the room. Yang Anxuan was accompanied by Zhang Feng, and Qi Sheng sat beside his father Qi Yuan to look after him.
Yang Anxuan raised his glass and said with a smile: "After Yu came to Runan, I received great help from Qi Gong and his son. I am very grateful. I would like to propose a toast to Xian and his son."
Qi Yuan and his son laughed and said they didn't dare, and raised their glasses to drink.
"I wonder if the Qi family has any business dealings with the Yan State?" Yang Anxuan asked.
Qi Yuan pondered for a moment, unaware of Yang Anxuan's intentions, and said thoughtfully: "To be honest with Governor Yang, the Qi family does have some business dealings with the Yan State, trafficking silk, tea, and porcelain to the Zhongshan area in exchange for old ginseng, furs, and gold items. Waiting for accessories."
"Okay," Yang Anxuan said with a smile, "You plan to take advantage of the Qi family to do business with the Yan people. I wonder if Mr. Qi has any connections?"
Qi Yuan was convinced that it turned out that Yang Anxuan wanted to do business with the Yan State, but he could not come forward on his own, so he borrowed his own cover. There were many collusions between officials and businessmen. For the Qi family, being able to do business under the banner of the prefect was a big deal. Things of benefit.
"Prefect Yang can trust me, the Qi family will definitely handle this matter for the prefect." Qi Yuan stroked his beard and said with a smile.
Yang Anxuan knew that Qi Yuan thought he was doing ordinary business, so he smiled and said, "Don't be anxious, Mr. Qi. Let's listen to the business that Yu wants to do."
