In the study room, I heard Zhang Yuhang’s words.
Ning Zhiyuan immediately stood up and said: "General, I just checked once before. The specific figures have not been calculated yet, but when everything is put together, there is no less than one million taels of silver and one hundred thousand taels of gold."
"There are countless amounts of food and grass. If we follow the current expenditure of the army, we will not have a food shortage problem within at least three years. I have to say that the people in the Southern Territory are poor, but these high-ranking officials and aristocratic families are also really rich. It’s so oily!”
In order to have a bite to eat, the people did not hesitate to rebel and risk their lives to fight for a future.
But their biggest wish is just to have a full meal. This desire, which is not a problem in the eyes of aristocratic families and officials, has become a luxury wish that countless people cannot satisfy even if they die.
Zhang Yuhang sneered and said, "I am not surprised at all that a family with hundreds of years of history, plus the two county guards who have been doing whatever they want in their respective territories for so long, can have so much money and food." '
"It is estimated that they could not take all their property when they left the place. Otherwise, what we see now will only be more than what we see now."
Li Lu asked: 'General, what should we do next? You asked Sun to lead them to train the army. Are you going to take action against the rebels next? '
"No, I won't attack anyone for the time being!"
Zhang Yuhang shook his head and continued: "The chaos in the Southern Territory is no longer the result of a day. The people are full of complaints against the imperial court. Even in Yongmen City now, how many people care whether the imperial court is in charge?"
"Especially now, after just experiencing a major disaster, what the people need most urgently is how to survive the upcoming cold winter stably?"
"The people are like this, but aren't the rebels like this?"
"And if you want to solve these two problems, you must face two things that cannot be bypassed, food and heating!"
Zhang Yuhang now has a solution in mind for the heating problem, but food, even if it is the relief food brought by the court, plus the food and grass he has obtained now, it is enough to put it in Yongmen City.
But if you want to continue doing things, that's not enough. After all, there is more than just Yongmen City in the entire Southern Territory.
It's not just the people here who need food to save their lives.
"Where is Mr. Feng? Is he here?"
Feng Qi was the person arranged by the King of Zhou before his departure to help Zhang Yuhang handle government affairs.
As for what he really wants to do, everyone is tacitly aware of it.
"Master Feng is sorting out some supplies. I believe he will come to report to you soon. What do you mean?"
Hearing Zhang Yuhang suddenly turn his words to Feng Qi and thinking about the food problem, Ning Zhiyuan reacted directly.
Zhang Yuhang smiled and said: "I didn't come to the Southern Territory to make a fortune for myself. Why should I worry about everything? Some things should be a headache for Your Majesty." '
"That's right, Li Lu!"
"What are your orders, sir?"
"Next, I will arrange for Feng Qi to be in charge of the government affairs within the territory. You should stay by his side and try your best to cooperate with him. You should pay more attention to the various things below and hone yourself."
"The current county government is almost an empty shell. I will temporarily transfer some soldiers to serve as government officials. They will obey your orders and it will be easier for you to do things. However, Mr. Feng was personally appointed by His Majesty. You must not conflict with him. !”
"You should understand the propriety in this."
Li Lu glanced at Zhang Yuhang when he heard this, but all he saw was his calm eyes, and whispered: "I understand!"
"Sir, what about me?"
Seeing that Li Ludu had already had his chance, but had yet to arrange his own tasks, Ning Zhiyuan was a little anxious and asked immediately.
"You?" Zhang Yuhang glanced at him and then said: "I have other plans, but the time has not come yet, so just follow me and obey my orders for the time being."
At this point, Zhang Yuhang had made general arrangements for the entire Yongmen City, whether it was internal affairs or military affairs.
The rest is continuous improvement and adjustment.
But at least the general direction has been set, and everyone knows their responsibilities.
Noon has just arrived.
In the study, Zhang Yuhang closed the documents that Feng Qi had compiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work today, Mr. Feng."
Feng Qi is a middle-aged man in his thirties, wearing a typical scholar's attire. Logically speaking, he is much older than Zhang Yuhang, but at this moment, facing the young general in front of him, he dare not show the slightest disrespect. .
He has already seen this person's methods, how dare you put on airs in front of him? Isn't this the birthday man who has hanged himself and is looking for death?
"General, your words are serious. This is what a subordinate should do."
"No more nonsense." Zhang Yuhang stood up and said straight to the point: "When you come to the Southern Region this time, I believe His Majesty has already told you that you should have an idea of what I am going to do." '
"I understand that I am ashamed of the general's magnanimity."
It was precisely because he knew this person's means and goals that he corrected his position.
"Two things. First, you will be in charge of all government affairs in the country. But how to do it, I have the final say."
This is a puppet, Zhang Yuhang's response to King Zhou. As for how to do it, naturally he still has to control it in his own hands.
"I understand clearly!"
Zhang Yuhang is very satisfied with Feng Qi's attitude. If he dares to point fingers because he is a person sent by King Zhou, then he will let him know what kindness is.
"Second, the general will next settle down all the people in Yongmen County and start to provide disaster relief to the surrounding refugees. However, the food and grass needed now are far from enough. Your Majesty's support is urgently needed, so that the court can quickly mobilize a large amount of food and grass to be transported to Yongmen. Door County.”
Hearing this, Feng Qi looked at Zhang Yuhang with a puzzled expression. He had just received such a large windfall, and for a while, they would not be short of food at all.
But even though he was puzzled, he just nodded in agreement. After all, he was like everyone here, and their lives and fortunes were almost tied to the Pingnan Army.
There is a chain of iron and a boat, both prosperous and destructive. Naturally, there is no reason to refuse.
"besides......"
Zhang Yuhang said and handed him a memorial he had written long ago on his desk, and continued: "What is recorded here is everything that happened in Yongmen City before. When you go back, you can also write one yourself and find someone to sign it with you. , sent to the court.
I believe that the entire Kyoto is now waiting for news about our Pingnan Army. With such high enthusiasm, no matter what, we cannot let them down. "
"I understand."
Looking at Feng Qi's leaving figure, Zhang Yuhang knew that this was a smart man, and this would be the best, as it would save him a lot of effort.
The current Yongmen City is my starting point and beginning.
If you don't sweep one house, how can you sweep the world?
This Yongmen County is your own place!
