Liu Zhe sat in his seat. On both sides of the hall sat the actors, Cang Jie, Guan Yu, Dian Wei, Cang Ba, Guan Hai, and others. This was the first time Liu Zhe had gathered so many people for a meeting.
"Elder Xi, tell me, how are the refugees now?”Liu Zhe said to the actor, asking him to introduce the situation of the refugees. Today's meeting was mainly about the refugees outside the village.
"Yes, my lord." The actor stood up and said slowly,""Ever since the lord gave the order to open the tents to give out porridge last month, more and more refugees and beggars have flooded into our Xiaoxing Village. The number of people is estimated to have exceeded ten thousand.”
Everyone's expression turned grave after hearing the actor's words. 10,000 people, with so many people gathered together, everyone felt a sense of pressure.
"In terms of food, because of the lord's foresight, the caravan has brought back a lot of food. In addition to the food that the manor received from the tenants some time ago, we don't have to worry about food for the time being.”"The most important thing now is the safety of the refugees.”
When there were more people, anything could happen. Most of the refugees were ordinary people who knew their place. However, there was a small group of people who had bad personalities and bad conduct. They were like rat droppings in a pot of porridge. They were the destroyer of order. They stole, robbed, fought, formed cliques, and made the refugee gathering place a mess.
Liu Zhe shifted his gaze to Guan Yu. Guan Yu was now the main person in charge of the refugees 'security, and Cang Ba was his deputy.
Seeing Liu Zhe looking at him, Guan Yu stood up and reported,""My lord, the main problem is that we lack manpower. According to the response of the security team, they had too few people and could not protect all the places.”
Liu Zhe nodded. The security team was recruited from the refugees, and there were only about 300 people. The refugee camp was so big, and there were 300 people plus Guan Yu and the others. It was normal for them to be short of manpower.
"Then expand the security team." Liu Zhe thought for a moment and said to Guan Yu,""You guys are in charge of checking. Don't let those people with bad morals sneak in.”
"Here." Guan Yu and Cang Ba stood up and accepted the order.
"I'll have to trouble you guys to maintain public security for this period of time. Dian Wei, Guan Hai, you guys go help out as well.”Liu Zhe called out names, especially Guan Hai, who only cared about practicing martial arts all day long. He didn't want to care about the outside world.
"Here." Guan Hai had no choice but to obey Liu Zhe's order.
"Actually, the most important reason why I came to you today is to discuss what we should do with these refugees.”Liu Zhe revealed the main purpose of the meeting.
More than ten thousand people were waiting for Liu Zhe's relief. The food they received every day was only enough to fill their stomachs. Even so, the daily expenditure was huge.
When Liu Zhe saw the expenditure data every day, his heart ached terribly. However, he had no choice but to help them. Whether it was morality or Liu Zhe's conscience, he would not allow Liu Zhe to stop helping the refugees.
However, Liu Zhe was not willing to have only expenses but no income, so he gathered everyone together and asked them to brainstorm and come up with a good idea.
As soon as Liu Zhe said this, other than Xi Zangjie, Guan Yu, and Cang Ba, who were frowning in thought, everyone else was dumbfounded. Seeing this, Liu Zhe gave up on the brainless faction led by Dian Wei and turned to look at Xi Zangjie and the others.
"My Lord, why don't we recruit them all?”Cang Ba was the first to speak up." Since they are all here, why don't we take them all in? The old and the young can go to farm, and the young and the strong can join the guards." Oh, right, you can also join the caravan as a guard.”
Cang Ba's words made Liu Zhe's face darken. There were so many people, he also wanted them! But he couldn't afford to raise so many now!
"Are you going to raise them?" Liu Zhe suddenly asked, interrupting Cang Ba's incessant speech.
Zang Jie looked at his son with disappointment. He didn't think before he spoke. He decided that he had to train his son when he went back.
Liu Zhe ignored Cang Ba and looked at the actors. At this moment, Liu Zhe only hoped that the actors would give him some reliable ideas.
When the actor saw Liu Zhe looking at him, he thought for a while and stood up to apologize."My lord, I can't think of any good ideas.”
Liu Zhe waved his hand and looked at the others. The others also looked away, not having any good ideas.
Liu Zhe could only give up. At this moment, he really envied those military strategists he had seen on TV before. They shook their heads and pinched their fingers to come up with countless brilliant ideas, solving the problems in front of them.
Sigh, I wonder where the Zhuge Liang of this era is? Liu Zhe sighed in his heart. Zhuge Liang was no good, but maybe you could give me Zhou Yu.
"Forget it, let's end the meeting." Liu Zhe saw that they had not come up with any good ideas, so he dismissed everyone and let them go about their own business.
He could only watch as everyone left. Liu Zhe thought to himself that it wasn't easy to be the boss.
Liu Zhe was troubled, but he did not know that danger was approaching in the darkness.
"Channel Master, Xiaoxing Village is right in front of us.”The night sky was still snowing, and the moonlight was very bright under the white snowflakes. Under the night sky, a large group of people approached the small village.
"Kill…"
