If these people rush out of Fushun and come to the vicinity of Shenyang, they will do nothing but destroy a lot of farmland, which will be a huge loss to He Xi.
After all, the food in He Xi's hands is already stretched. He Xi was already ready to wipe Ye Chen's butt.
But before doing it again, I just want Ye Chen to learn a lesson. It just seems like it can’t be done. What left He Xi speechless was that in the future, I'm afraid things like this will be used a lot.
However, Ye Chen is right when he says, use people for their strengths, not their weaknesses. He Xi took out a warrant from his hand and said, "Take it, I don't need to teach you how to say this." Ye Chen took it over and looked at it, but it was a letter of order to take over Shenyang's defense in an emergency. The secret order was signed and affixed by He Xi, as well as the date.
The date was before Ye Wang's death. With this secret order, it means that Ye Chen is acting under orders. Seize love for the public good.
Of course, this matter cannot be completely fooled. It just turned out to be a good place. In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang is on top, and it doesn't matter if Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't investigate strictly.
This is true for any politician. If not down, many things are routine operations. But if it falls.
This incident alone, if Shang Gang goes online, is enough to make He Xi and Ye Chen lose their heads. Ye Chen is not too politically sensitive.
But not a fool. Naturally, He Xi's intention could be seen. Needless to say, I immediately saluted and thanked you. ------A storm began against Goryeo officials.
Hosted by Yao Guangxiao. Many problems were found in several rural areas with a large population in Korea. It can only be said that these officers were very ruthless in detaining the top and bottom officials. The reason why nothing happened was that these Koreans organized many people to dig wild vegetables.
In this way, a lot of food was saved. Although my stomach is full of wild vegetables, it is really unpalatable. But it can make people survive, and the people of Goryeo are only treated like this in their own country.
Even worse than this, at least there are enough wild vegetables here. However, He Xi was not well off in terms of food rations.
In addition, these people also spent a lot of money, and in the end only tens of thousands of stones of food were recovered. However, Yao Guangxiao held a grand ceremony, killed these criminals together, and transported the collected grain into the warehouse at once.
Tens of thousands of stones of grain is not much at the national level. But many people have never seen so much food.
seeing is believing. It seems that they did not expect that the entire Liaodong grain reserves were declining at a uniform speed and were about to bottom out.
------
"Sir, three people have already reported to me that there is a large food shortage." Yao Guangxiao said, "I will take care of it first. It's just that the paper can't cover up the fire. This matter will be leaked sooner or later." He Xi wanted to A lot of work was done to conceal this matter.
Want to hide from others. Hide yourself first. Therefore, He Xi created dozens of different versions of false accounts.
Deal with each granary. After all, everyone manages the granary. It’s not like we live in a vacuum. They have their own relatives.
He has his own network and knows how much food is in his granary. They also have no intention of keeping it secret.
Rather than keeping them completely secret. It is better to tell him that the court's food is placed in other warehouses.
After all, Liaodong has a large number of granaries. With the speed of information exchange in this era, it is difficult for officials from various places to have the opportunity to communicate.
Then there are the fake granaries. He Xi suddenly created many fake granaries. It is said to be a military granary. No outsiders are allowed in or out.
Strictly confidential. Of course, they would also secretly ask a few people to look around. Of course, what they saw was a warehouse full of food. As for how the food came from.
They are just some methods that are not humane to outsiders. But, it's true. What's fake is fake.
No matter how much work you do, it will never become fake. What is false cannot become true. Since it is fake, there must be flaws and problems.
In this case, someone will definitely be discovered. So He Xi entrusted this matter to Yao Guangxiao and asked Yao Guangxiao to be responsible for keeping it secret.
Yao Guangxiao relied on his previous investigation of the prestige of Goryeo officials and conducted a large-scale inspection of the granary system.
The people below should report any problems they find to him. As a result, several people who discovered the fishy nature threw themselves into the trap.
Yao Guangxiao has different approaches to these people and their different understandings of the truth. With a little knowledge of the truth, tell them that the problem they discovered is significant.
Powerful people involved in Liaodong must close the case until there is conclusive evidence. Let them go home and explain clearly to their families, just say they are on a business trip.
Then seal it up and give them something to check. Others already know the truth.
Just can't go back. Now we are talking about the latter. He Xi also knew that this would definitely be leaked.
Especially when the food reserves are less, because there is more food. Many people don't care too much, but there is less food.
There is a lot of attention and the level of attention increases. Even the less food there is, the easier it is to be discovered. He Xi is just betting now. It will take time for this matter to be leaked, spread, and fermented.
Before that, large quantities of seaborne grain could arrive. Of course, before that, He Xi also tried to make some remedies.
Said: "How is the situation of buying grain in Peiping?" Yao Guangxiao said: "The price of grain in Peiping is not high. There is imperial control, but due to the severe drought in the north, the harvest in Shandong has stopped. Other places have also been affected. The government controls grain. No The allowed scale of grain trading is not allowed to be sold overseas." Under such circumstances, prohibiting the outflow of domestic grain is considered a normal method.
He Xi had already thought of it and said, "You didn't send anyone to find King Yan. What did King Yan say?" Yao Guangxiao said, "Because we didn't tell King Yan the real situation. King Yan came forward to deal with it. There were a total of ten thousand The stone grain has been transported into Shanhaiguan." He Xi sighed and said: "Ten thousand stones." Then he whispered: "Every little bit counts. Is there any other grain?" Yao Guangxiao said: "The wood from the big wood farm , only more than 5,000 shi of grain have been exchanged this month. The price of wood has obviously dropped, and there are still fish and soybeans harvested one after another, but the quantity is not large." He Xi said: "I understand. Now I can What to do?" Yao Guangxiao said: "What you can do now is to do nothing. The more you do, the more chaotic it will be, and the more chaotic it will be, the easier it will be leaked. To be honest, I still have confidence in shipping food by sea. Don't tell me. Others. Yang Zhen will definitely not give up. The food must be on the way now. But what I am most worried about is not that the food is gone. It is that the news is leaked. "
"So, sir, the more relaxed and calm you are, the less things will happen. Once you mess up first, the matter will be irreversible." He Xi said, "I know. I know." He Xi was a little irritable.
How could he not know? Just because he knew it, he couldn't sleep at night and lost a lot of hair. But I still work every day during the day.
Give the appearance of business as usual. But the time is getting closer and closer, and food is becoming more and more scarce. He Xi had written a food control order several times, which meant that all the food would be collected and distributed on a per-mouth basis.
Everyone eats from the big pot to tide over the difficulties. But He Xi knew very well what would happen with this order.
The situation in Liaodong that He Xi has managed for several years will be destroyed in one day. It would cause a lot of chaos. He Xi secretly thought: "If it doesn't work, I will deduct a batch of military rations." Yes, part of Lanyu's military rations was raised by Lanyu locally.
Anyway, the south of Goryeo is also a food producing area. Can produce a lot of food. The other part is shipping to Goryeo.
As mentioned before, shipping routes are all along the coastline. So these ships would dock in Port Arthur and then transfer to Korea.
It's just that once he does this. have greater adverse effects. Not to mention, his good relationship with Lan Yu was wiped out, and this move would make most nobles disgusted. No one wanted to think that when he was fighting, his food and salary were suddenly cut off in the rear.
Even if Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to protect him, it would take a while. He Xi would never do this unless absolutely necessary.
His best option now. That's waiting. Waiting for food to run out, waiting for a turnaround. Trust Yang Zhen.
