Time flies, and unknowingly it is the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month in the first year of Daye; Huanglong City is covered with snow, and the falling snow has never stopped; because of the heavy wind and snow this year, some houses in the city cannot withstand the heavy snow. The collapse buried many people who had just migrated in their sleep, so soldiers patrolled in shifts day and night to help people in need at any time.
Liao Governor Shi Huangfu Wuyi rubbed his red and dry eyes, put down the brush in his hand, looked up at the heavy snow falling outside the official residence without any sign of stopping, and sighed helplessly.
In order to prevent Goguryeo from marching westward on the frozen Liao River, Yan Xun, the governor, could not come to Huanglong City, so he, the long history officer, went to Xinzhou to take charge of the government affairs of the four new counties.
Originally, all the Khitan men were slaughtered by Yang Ji and the Turkic army, and most of the women were captured by the Turkic army. Therefore, the new Da'an County, Huanglong County, Chaoyang County, and Chifeng County in Liaozhou did not have any government affairs. It can be handled, but after the emperor received the good news, he immediately ordered Yang Wensi, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, to move 100,000 households from Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Jizhou.
These people have just arrived and don’t even have a home, let alone how to solve the problem of food. Fortunately, Youzhou, Tanzhou, Xuanzhou, Pingzhou, Yingzhou and other places have used sleds to transport food. This has allowed Liaozhou to not worry about food shortages, but Liaozhou has to solve the problem of food shortage. However, Liaozhou has to deal with it itself.
Facing these four to five million people, Huangfu Wuyi also felt a deep pain in his head.
He has been working continuously in the prefectural government office for more than half a month, during which he did not even have time to rest. There were countless instructions, distribution of relief materials, and filing of documents, which even the young and powerful Huangfu Wuyi was a little overwhelmed.
After taking a sip of hot tea and twisting his shoulders that were sore from writing for a long time, Huangfu Wuyi looked around and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
In Huanglong City, there is actually a great man who is both civil and military, and is also knowledgeable in military and political affairs. However, this man does not care at all. If you ask him how to provide disaster relief, he will spend all his money; if you ask him to borrow troops, he will not say anything... But if Asking him to help handle government affairs is just a pipe dream!
According to Hao Yuan, this is what Uncle Yang Ji did in Liangzhou. To put it simply, I think of ways, and I create people and objects. If there are no people or objects, I, Yang Ji, can conjure them up for you, but you do the specific things.
Because of this, Huangfu Wuyi finally understood why two generations of emperors valued and trusted Yang Ji so much. It was just because this guy didn't care about power at all. It was impossible to tire him out.
What emperor wouldn't like such a capable and non-power-hungry person? What subordinate wouldn't like such a boss who likes to delegate power and is willing to give everyone opportunities?
But the problem is, Huangfu Wuyi needs help too much. So he went to ask for help many times, but Yang Ji's answer to him was: You are the governor of Liaozhou, and the government affairs of Liaozhou are under your management. If I were to do it, what would the court do for you and these places? Do you want to eat free rice?
Huangfu Wuyi couldn't ask Yang Ji, so he had to ask Hao Yuan, who was far more intelligent and talented than him. Hao Yuan and others were willing to help, and finally helped him with a lot of things, but they still required local officials like them to come over for specific matters. Do.
Although Huangfu Wuyi is quite dissatisfied, he is indeed an "outsider" and the assistance that should be given to you has been given to him. What else can you ask for?
What would the court think if officials from the Wei Wang family intervened in Liaozhou's government affairs? What do Liaozhou officials think?
Does Yang Ji really have nothing to do with PepsiCo?
it's not true.
He has already formulated a strategy, asking the army to conduct temporary inspections in the order of first difficult and then easy, first heavy and then light, and coordinate with the state and local governments to make good use of relief materials and relieve the victims as soon as possible.
The key points of disaster relief have also been issued to local governments one by one. The steps are construction, heating, shelter, epidemic prevention, and non-compulsory donations.
The construction work means to use work in place of relief, ordering the local government to mobilize the new residents of Liaozhou, giving them farm tools, and asking them to set up water conservancy projects and reclaim farmland, so that they can start farming next year.
On this basis, the army is also used to open roads, accumulate materials, supply firewood to ordinary people who are short of labor, and light fires day and night in some relatively remote places and wasteland for the people to keep warm and survive the winter. For some years, The elders of the people asked the army to take care of them and support them.
To prevent the epidemic, we burned and buried the frozen corpses, and prepared some cold-proof decoctions and distributed them to the people in fire piles and work sheds.
After receiving Yang Ji's order, the garrison troops in various places all moved quickly. They did not dare to make any mistakes and acted in accordance with the regulations one by one. The officials of Da'an, Chaoyang, and Chifeng counties were no exception. A series of work sheds were built in the fields, and groups of people were shouting slogans. They were so busy that their heads were sweating. There was a lively scene everywhere.
Even Yang Jian was sent to cultivate wasteland by Yang Ji. Now Yang Jian is like a farmer, busy in the fields all day long.
"Uncle Wang, the supplies stored in Huanglong City are not small. We can completely distribute grain, rice, firewood, firewood, and clothing to the people! Why do we need to build large-scale fortifications and let them work in the ice and snow?"
As the New Year was about to come, Yang Jian was also called back to the "official residence" by Yang Ji from the construction site. Some local officials privately criticized Yang Ji's disaster relief methods, but they did not dare to come to Yang Ji to question it, but Yang Jian did not. There are so many taboos, so just ask.
"The winter in Liaozhou still lasts for three or four months. The government's relief can only alleviate the people's worries about hunger and cold, but it cannot solve their harvest in the coming year. Moreover, now that the mountains and roads are blocked by heavy snow, the new arrivals are confused. , if they are left trapped in the city and do nothing, they will easily break into chaos..."
Not long after Yang Xian had grown up, Yang Ji was willing to explain to him: "I asked them to do things. One is to gather the young and strong people in one place for easy management. And their family is small in the city. Even if they have some complaints, , but dare not make trouble; secondly, everyone overcomes difficulties together, which can play a role in uniting people; thirdly, actions have results, and when the people see that their efforts are not in vain, they will have hope, direction, and order. .”
When Yang Ji said this, he asked again: "Have you gained anything from helping the people cultivate wasteland these days?"
"The harvest is very great!" Yang Xian said with a wry smile: "If Uncle Wang hadn't thrown me into the common people, I would never have realized how difficult life is. At the beginning, I did have complaints about Uncle Wang, but when I saw a The fields and canals were completed with the joint efforts of everyone, and the sense of accomplishment was very subtle. This feeling is something I have never felt before."
Yang Jian was arranged by Yang Ji to be an ordinary civilian husband, but because he didn't know anything, he could only do manual labor. This was painful for the second generation ancestor who had never done heavy work but had to work all day long. One can imagine. Within a few days, he had blood blisters on his hands.
But what he was doing was a work-for-relief project. If he couldn't complete the required tasks, he wouldn't have food to eat that day. In order to eat a rough meal, he had to grit his teeth and persevere. After more than ten days of hard work, he unexpectedly felt that life was not easy, and his thoughts and ideas also gained a new understanding.
Yang Ji never imagined that his simple torture would actually make Yang Xian have such a good awakening. He smiled and asked, "Then what do you think now?"
"I and many other people have built a canal to introduce weak Luo water into the grassland that will be fertile land. However, it has not yet been completed. If possible, I hope Uncle Wang will let me go back and complete the canal with my fellow workers." Yang Jian looked at Yang Ji and said seriously: "Uncle Wang, I don't want to give up halfway!"
Yang Ji said happily: "Then you go!"
"Here!" Yang Jian stood up. He thought for a while and asked, "Uncle Wang, I have a question for you."
Yang Ji nodded and said, "Just ask!"
Yang Jian pondered for a while and then said: "Uncle Wang, am I, the Great Sui Dynasty, in danger?"
"Why do you think so?" Yang Ji asked without answering.
"I know that Aye is so diligent not only because he wants to surpass his grandfather, but also because of the real danger. But what the danger is and where it comes from, I can't guess and I dare not ask, and outsiders will not give me the truth. The answer. But Aye talked to Uncle Wang about everything. I think Uncle Wang should know what the danger is." Yang Jian glanced at Yang Ji and whispered: "I don't want to be kept in the dark, and I don't want to be kept in the dark one day. He died in a daze, so I hope Uncle Wang can give me a precise answer."
"You guessed it right. Our Sui Dynasty looks like blooming flowers, but in fact its foundation is unstable and extremely dangerous." Yang Ji paused and continued: "This danger is not external enemies, but internal enemies. So your grandfather, you Aye Every step you take is on thin ice, every strategy you decide on is made by thinking twice, weighing and weighing again.”
Yang Jian was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Danger comes from within?"
"It's the inside!" Yang Ji said to him: "The worries of the previous dynasty are actually the worries of our Sui Dynasty. Whether it is Bujia Khan's invasion of Liangzhou southward, the rebellion of Renshou Palace, or the rebellion of the Han Dynasty, they are all doing it. .To this day, they still have the power to change dynasties, and they still want to change the world to another surname. As long as you pay attention to your Aye's policy strategy and targets, and then think about it based on the previous dynasty and the current national conditions, you will know that I How dangerous is Sui Dynasty?"
"I understand, thank you Uncle Wang for clarifying the confusion." Yang Jian nodded heavily, bowed his hand to Yang Ji, and left.
"Wait!" When Yang Xian arrived at the door, Yang Ji caught up with him, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Ahai, you really impressed me this time. Sui Dynasty needs you very much. You must live up to a qualified prince, and never let your Aye and your Aniang down completely."
"Uncle Wang, I know!" For some reason, Yang Jian felt sour after hearing these very ordinary words and almost shed tears. He quickly avoided Yang Ji's eyes, turned around and strode away.
