How can we find something to do for these bastards in the city? Don't let them be idle like the old ladies enjoying the cool weather in the village, focusing all their attention on themselves.
This difficult question,
It has been placed in front of Xiao Han urgently.
In addition, there is another problem that makes Xiao Han feel a little headache, that is, in recent days, the refugees outside the city have also been experiencing some impetuous phenomena.
The land outside the city has almost been cultivated in these days. After all, no matter how much land there is, it cannot withstand tens of thousands of people working day and night.
When the land is completely reclaimed, the remaining work on the land will inevitably not require so many hands.
At that time, in addition to the craftsmen who can make a living by relying on their crafts, there are still many farmers who only know how to farm. They will not be able to earn work points at all, and then they will not be able to get centimeters in exchange for food!
Because of this, the refugees who sensed a sense of crisis began to worry about gains and losses, so that fights and fights occurred for several days.
Fortunately, there were stewards and guards at the scene who stopped the incident in time, preventing these incidents from spreading and causing greater impact.
But even so, the refugees who came early had already formed a grouping attitude and began to be vaguely hostile to the refugees who came later.
It’s no wonder that the refugees are so interested in life in Ningcheng.
Because even a blind man can see that the land of Shandong has completely turned into a barrel of explosives! All kinds of mysterious auras filled it, and no one knew whether it would explode completely in the next second!
Compared to those places filled with violent emotions, Ningcheng is just like its name, a city of tranquility! Although we are on the edge of the whirlpool, life here is unique and good.
So after enjoying this rare tranquility, no matter where the refugees came from, they were unwilling to leave here, let alone be involved in the storm that was about to arise outside!
Xiao Han in the city didn't understand the psychology of the refugees outside the city, but he didn't have any good ideas for it.
A few days ago, he had written down the situation here and sent people to Chang'an quickly.
When he thought about it, since Xiao Lizi might be the one sitting behind the scenes playing chess, then he would have the ability to end this chaotic game as soon as possible, so as not to let it get worse and worse, and finally lead to an unending result.
However, what disappointed Xiao Han was that when Zhezi came back, the reply from above only contained eight simple words: Stay in Ningcheng temporarily and adapt to changes.
"According to circumstances! What kind of improvisation, what kind of changes, could you please tell me a little bit?"
Holding the Chang'an reply letter sent by Xiaodong in his hand, Xiao Han's mouth twitched twice, and then he could only shake his head and smile bitterly!
Now, nearly 50,000 refugees have gathered here in Ningcheng!
Fortunately, the waterway from Luoyang to here has been opened, and the food Xiao Han "borrowed" from there can be continuously delivered here along the waterway.
Otherwise, needless to say, just these 50,000 mouths can eat up all of Ningcheng.
"Master Hou..."
Seeing Xiao Han's gloomy look, Xiaodong said unbearably: "Are you having a headache because of the refugees outside the city? In my opinion, the road from here to the west has been opened anyway, why don't we give it to the people outside the city?" Give some food to the refugees and let them go west on their own. In this way, we have relieved the siege and the refugees have a way out. Wouldn't everyone be happy?"
This idea has been brewing in Xiaodong's mind for a long time. He originally thought that even if the Marquis did not agree, he should seriously consider it, but unexpectedly, Xiao Han just rolled his eyes and rejected his proposal.
"Let them go to the west? I also asked them to go to the west to learn scriptures!" Xiao Han snorted angrily: "You try to let them go and see which of them will leave? And even if they are willing to leave, are you sure those towns in the west Will they take them in? If they don’t take them in, won’t these people starve to death again?”
"What should we do now? There are so many people outside..." Xiaodong became a little anxious, and his eyes began to look outside unconsciously, although he knew that he could not see anything from here.
"What should we do? Salad! Didn't His Majesty say to adapt to changes? Then let's change!"
Seeing Xiaodong's anxious look, Xiao Han just sneered, then put the reply letter in his hand into his arms, straightened his back and said: "You will leave the city soon and tell the refugees that after the work in the fields is finished, , they all go to the mountains to collect stones and cut down trees! Now this Ningcheng is too small, I can’t stand it, Lord Marquis, and I want to expand it again! Well, let’s expand it three times for the time being! Let’s tell those people by the way, wait After the expansion, they can also live in the new city!"
"ah……"
By the time Xiao Han finished speaking, Xiaodong had already been completely stunned, staring directly at his Lord Marquis, as if this was the first time he saw him.
What's the meaning? In this year of great disaster, do you want to carry out large-scale construction and expand the city?
Let’s not talk about how much manpower and material resources will be spent here! Who can come up with so much money!
Even if he could come up with money, wouldn't he be afraid of being impeached by the court officials?
"This, this is not good, after all, this year..." After looking at Xiao Han blankly for a long time, Xiaodong finally reacted, swallowed, and carefully reminded Xiao Han not to make any mistakes at this time. things.
"What's wrong with this? Next, I will dig a canal to connect Ningcheng with the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, so that it can be worthy of this new big city!"
However, Xiao Han didn't care about this. A year of great disaster?
Just because it is a year of great disaster, it is even more important that the court should take the lead in carrying out large-scale construction projects and create jobs for the victims!
Otherwise, if everyone is holding back and not spending money, the landlord will be fine, but the victims will really starve to death!
"Crazy! Master Hou must be crazy!"
Hearing that Xiao Han even wanted to dig a canal, Xiaodong was completely speechless. At this time, he had already concluded that his master's brain must be broken!
If it wasn't for his brain damage, how could he kick his gay friend Liu Hongji's ass? If it wasn't for his brain damage, how could he dare to imitate Yang Guang?
"No, I have to find Doctor Hua quickly!" Thinking of this, Xiaodong no longer cared about Xiao Han, and ran directly to Old Man Hua's residence. While running, he did not forget to shout: " Doctor Hua, Doctor Hua! Oh no, the Marquis' hysteria has returned!"
"Am I suffering from hysteria again?" Later, Xiao Han, who was awakened from the grand blueprint he had designed, looked at Xiaodong's retreating figure. He was first surprised, and then cursed angrily: "You are the one who has hysteria. Your whole family is suffering from hysteria!”
However, it's okay if he doesn't scold him. When he scolds me like this, he really feels like he's having a hysterical attack.
