When Jiang Tian left the territory of Yangzhou Prefecture and sailed into the boundary of Jiangnan East Road, it was already ten days later. During this period, some things happened, such as the belated arrival of the envoys from the Third Division from the north. They had no choice but to accept the fact that the dust had settled.
For another example, the body of the inspector Lu Guang has been found in an abandoned well in Yangzhou City; but the whereabouts of another censor, Li Xing Xu Zhiyuan, are completely unknown; it is as if he evaporated out of thin air in Guangling City; but Ji He was definitely the culprit who caused the brutal deaths of his colleagues.
Even his superior, the local patrol censor, suddenly fell seriously ill and was found to have been poisoned and assassinated by him after investigation. But is that all there is to it? Jiang Tian undoubtedly has more questions and; as a foreigner, he has a good career prospect.
Why would you take the initiative to interfere with the Dayun Sect, a crooked sect that has not been around for a long time? Is there more inside information and the mastermind behind it? Of course Jiang Tian wanted to get to the bottom of it, but there were already some people in Yangzhou who couldn't withstand such ups and downs.
In addition, in the subsequent pursuit and implication, a registered local clan member was even implicated. Although he was just a distant sect who was about to be related to the emperor for five years and would be demoted to civilian status in the next generation; but because his wife, concubines, and eldest son all worshiped in the Dayun Sect, they became high-level messengers and protectors.
Therefore, this man from Kaiguo County who was usually kind to others and had no sense of existence, who lived in 300 households in Xuyi, was so frightened that he hanged himself in the ancestral hall at home. He also left a suicide note, asking the court to follow the "Eight Discussions" system. , to preserve a bloodline for his family to pass on and serve the ancestors.
And this accident also caused the excitement of the Yangzhou Dudu Mansion and the Yangzhou Mansion to be poured into cold water. Because it involved the clan, Su Yanwen, the Shaoyin of Yangzhou Mansion, even I wrote a letter of self-defense and apology to Zazi overnight.
In order to unify our thoughts and caliber, we can deal with such a situation that may give people a handle; or even trigger a new round of inter-Korean strife. Reflected in the external uncertainties represented by Jiang Tian, the "censor patrolling the Yangtze River", it became the common appeal of most people to send gifts out of the country.
For this, they are also willing to pay a high price, or a series of generous rewards. For example, in just a few days, the local branch of the Anxing Censorship Department was established with extremely rapid efficiency, as well as the corresponding station, attached personnel, and subsidy funds.
In fact, the day after the branch in Yangzhou Prefecture was established, first-hand news was sent to Jiang Tian with extremely high efficiency; around the mountainous area at the junction of Jiangdong Road, East Zhejiang Road, and West Zhejiang Road, there were many Miasmic areas spreading across different areas have caused hundreds of cases of people and animals becoming lost.
In this regard, Jiang Tian didn't have many reasons to continue to persist. After all, although he was the suspect of being the leader of Dayun Cult "Ugly Cow", he was also the once famous Teng County Bo Zhu Guangcheng in the Guangling area; he was surrounded and attacked by officers and soldiers, and he chanted sutras and burned himself in his house in despair. .
But even if there are still high-level leaders of the sect who can escape, and there are remnants of the Five Practitioners and the Eight Tribes, they continue to wander outside the legal network; but after losing most of the middle-level backbone and grassroots leaders, even the believers have been exiled outside the territory; It will not be so easy for Huaiyang Land to revive.
The next step is to rely more on the local government's measures in governance, laws, and people's livelihood to eliminate and bridge the resulting social trauma, rifts, and a series of subsequent impacts. No matter as a "censor patrolling the river" or as a secret censor, it is inconvenient to intervene.
Jiang Tian did not reject the private overtures of goodwill towards individuals from all walks of life in the local area. Directly following the previous practice, they cashed it into massive amounts of food and other bulk materials; and then transferred it to other worlds in batches on the grounds of holding some kind of ancient sacrifice.
Compared with Jiangling Prefecture, which is a water and land hub in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, or Luzhou, which is one of the four major rice markets in the south of the Yangtze River, Yangzhou Prefecture is undoubtedly the best among the sixteen prefectures in the world. Huzhou (Taihu Basin/Hangjiahu Plain), one of the four major rice markets, is nearby, so fundraising is faster.
In a sense, through the re-evolved space-time hole, Jiang Tian could occasionally hear intermittent prayers from another world. Most of them are emotional confessions; a few are reports of current life conditions, so sending something over can maintain a sense of presence.
At the same time, it also uses another time and space as an important rear base for resource reserves, exchange and replacement, and production and operation. For example, in the Pauline Prayer of the medieval world, the increasingly obvious changes in animals and plants were mentioned, and their impact on the Kingdom of Zealand and surrounding forces.
Reflected in the daily affairs of the kingdom, the most intuitive thing is that the outbreak of insect plagues, animal tides, and local weather disorders have led to inevitable reductions in agricultural production in many places, as well as pessimistic expectations about the high probability of famine in the future. This is still a kingdom with strong control.
As for the surrounding Holy Kingdom, the Western Empire, the Dutch princes in the north, the Norman barbarian countries, and even the North Rhine League that has established diplomatic relations, man-made disasters have begun to occur to varying degrees. Even overseas provinces as far away as North Africa have experienced inland sandstorms and coastal typhoons.
In the witnessing of these disasters and the oral accounts of survivors, more and more legends of monsters and aliens began to appear in the desert and dust; therefore, there are already some desert indigenous tribes nomadic among the oases. , one after another migrated to overseas provinces.
On the Western Continent, because Paulina, as the acting regent, is responsible for touring various parts of the kingdom that are in need of reconstruction, she can also show off from time to time, summoning large amounts of disaster relief food and emergency supplies, or alleviating local illnesses and injuries. The miracle of creation; she was said to be the Holy Maiden of White.
The Sealand Kingdom has also become a polarizing existence among rumors in surrounding countries. On the one hand, it is a hell on earth that is full of malice and reversal of superiority and inferiority against ancient families and aristocratic bloodlines; on the other hand, it is a paradise in this world that is favored by God and sends apostles to warn and protect.
As a result, a large number of civilians, serfs, and citizens outside the country, and even indigenous people from the surrounding overseas provinces, began to spontaneously migrate and flee into the kingdom. The farthest among them are even the Principality of Saxony and the Alemannia region from the Hessian princes.
At the same time, in the east of the kingdom, the Avar Khanate, which has only a small border adjacent to it, also has groups of mountain people and small nomadic tribes, causing frequent cross-border incursions. There is even a branch of the Left and Right Arrow Tribe that claims to originate from the Royal Court of Youzhang, hoping to annex the kingdom.
The blood tax model of providing a certain proportion of men and young women on a regular basis, in exchange for a place to recuperate and recuperate in the kingdom, as well as subsequent asylum; in order to escape the fierce battles in the hinterland of the Khanate/Pannonian plain, and to contend with the intensifying Invasion of monsters and aliens.
However, this concentrated the pressure on the newly established dynastic government; on the one hand, it was the impact of the influx of a large number of foreign people, which caused deterioration of public security, tight daily supply, and soaring prices; the increasing uneasiness and opposition of ordinary people, thoughts of exclusion;
On the other hand, there were serious negotiations with the surrounding countries and the military confrontation at the Chen-Bing border; Paulina had to leave to comprehensively renovate and rebuild the city of Seine; along the widened ancient highway, she cruised through various provinces, between counties and cities to investigate and appease.
However, whether it is the royal court she leads or the dynastic government supervising, the most urgent problem is undoubtedly the huge gap in food reserves; although she can use the granted time and space hole as a channel to interact with Little Round Face The Haidong regime where they are located exchanges what they need.
But in fact, this kind of channel, which needs to be buffered for a period of time once used, is more suitable for exchanging industrial products or precious metal raw materials with higher value and lighter weight; it is used for the transportation of bulk grains, which is not as good as that of Kingdom Qian. A population of 10,000 is a drop in the bucket.
Therefore, when Jiang Tian last heard her prayers, she had already personally mediated and decisively dealt with more than a dozen resulting disputes and riots. However, Paulina was confused and shaken in her heart; some people also put forward radical and cruel suggestions at the state council.
Mobilize and expand the army in a short period of time to block the borders with a tougher attitude; at the same time, the exiles who have entered the kingdom are collectively driven away and sealed in a specific area; only the minimum share of drinking water is provided to allow different ethnic groups to Live and die in the struggle.
Therefore, Jiang Tian also took advantage of this opportunity to obtain a large amount of resources and fully activated the "space-time hole module" to transfer 260,000 stones of grain and more than 100,000 pieces of cheap coarse cloth at once; as a sense of support and confidence , and comes with a signed and pledged plan.
Instruct her on how to use government projects under supervised labor to continue to divide, disintegrate, organize and absorb the hundreds of thousands of immigrants who started out; at the same time, by manipulating the market and cracking down on hoarding, she diverted internal conflicts in public opinion and established a positive image and reputation of the dynasty. A series of initiatives.
As the saying goes, happiness and superiority need to be compared with a lower limit. Therefore, it is undoubtedly the best choice to use these external exile groups to reflect the sense of security and stable career as a kingdom subject in the current difficult times and crises everywhere.
Therefore, when dealing with these exiled groups, there is no need to deliberately persecute them, nor should they encourage infighting-style cultivation of gu; but they should not be treated too favorably or valued too much. As long as the labor force can be fully exploited, the most basic thing is to be half full to starve to death; in this case, there will be no energy to find trouble in tandem.
We can even learn from the advanced experience of our Iron-Blooded Song Dynasty, which has been praised as having the highest people's happiness index (in Bianliang City) in history. Select the strongest among the exiles or those with military experience; give them preferential treatment than most of the same kind; and then let them supervise the others.
Under the joint restraint and restraint of their families and relatives, a large-scale project site can be maintained with relatively small management costs and resource investment; after the initial difficult period has passed, these armed guards can become the first to be naturalized into the kingdom. Example and example for subjects.
