"This!"
Xun Yu's expression darkened.
He knew very well that Shangdang was keeping track of how much fertile land there was. It was simply not enough for the commoners to distribute. Moreover, with the addition of grain seeds and rations, it was not empty talk that more than 100,000 commoners would eat up the merchants in Zhongshan in one winter.
"Work as a form of relief!"
"Give them rations and seeds, and let the people open up wasteland. Can't they open up a few acres of fertile land in such a huge territory?”
"Each household will open up ten mu of fertile land, seven mu will be privately owned, and they will pay twenty percent of the grain tax!”
"Three Mu will be rented by the government to repay their grain seeds, rations, and so on!”、
"For the people who can't open up fertile land, let them build cities and repair their houses. Give them labor and money to buy food from the merchants in Zhongshan. They can also rent fertile land from the government and reduce the rent every year.”
"It's better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. If they refuse to work, they deserve to starve to death!”Liu Xian said in a deep voice.
"Marquis Anping is a great talent!"
Xun Yu suddenly realized and sighed." This way, we can appease the people without spending too much money. It's killing two birds with one stone!"”
"The merchants from Zhongshan will arrive in a few days. When the time comes, you can discuss with them that the government will rent grain, silver, and gold on behalf of the people and the merchants. After that, you can repay them through the government.”Liu Xian said lightly.
"I've learned my lesson!" Xun Yu took a deep breath, feeling that he was inferior to Liu Xian.
"Go!"
Liu Xian waved his hand. This era was far less flexible than the post-era. Even Xun Yu was a little confused by work-for-relief, national debt, and other methods.
"Here!" Xun Yu said respectfully.
Two days later, merchants from Zhongshan came to visit the eldest son.
Nearly 40,000 merchants directly set off a lively atmosphere in the county.
Many merchants started setting up stalls on the streets as soon as they entered the city. However, the deserted business made them have the urge to cry.
"Zizheng, my family's door is about to be kicked to pieces. Is this what you mean by focusing on business? He didn't even manage to complete the 10,000-yuan deal in the morning!”Zhen Yi roared in exasperation.
Liu Xian dug his ears and said with a bitter smile,""You have to find Wen Ruo. He is now in charge of the First Born. You can discuss it with him. I guarantee that I won't disappoint you!”
"Hmph, I'll go and take a look at this Xun Wenruo, who is known as the king's assistant!”Zhen Yi waved his sleeves and left the study in embarrassment.
"My lord, since Shangdang's situation has been decided, we should head to Taiyuan!”Cheng Yu said as he roasted the brazier.
"Yes, I am!"
Liu Xian said in a deep voice," I hope that Wen Ruo will be able to stabilize the people and merchants within half a month. Give me a month's time. I will definitely change the weather in Bing Province before spring!"”
"I hope so. I've done everything I can. Now it's up to this king's assistant to do it!”Cheng Yu said!
The next day, before dawn.
Liu Xian then brought everyone to Taiyuan's Jinyang County, leaving Shangdang's matters to Xun Yu.
When Xun Yu arrived at the Prefectural Governor's Mansion, he only saw an empty mansion. He could only smile bitterly in his heart and lament that time was of the essence.
Seven to eight days.
Liu Xian went to Taiyuan County. It was already the middle of November. There were less than ten lieutenants in Jinyang.
Taigu County.
Liu Xian flipped through the secret report from Zhao Feng, and his expression became colder and colder.
"My lord, are there not many people coming?”Cheng Yu asked, puzzled.
"Six!"
"There are only six people with the Taiyuan County Chief. You have to know that there are nine counties in Bingzhou. Other than Zhang Yang, there should be sixteen people here. Now, there are only six people.”Liu Xian mocked himself.
Cheng Yu sighed.”
"Zhao Feng, Dian Wei, Li Qing!"
"Immediately bring back all the prefects and lieutenants with you. I want to see all the prefects and lieutenants appear in Jinyang City before the end of the month. If they are disrespectful, they will all be punished for treason and the three clans will be exterminated with the power of the talisman!”Liu Xian said coldly.
"Here!"
Zhao Feng, Dian Wei, and Li Qing shouted.
At this moment, the killing intent in Liu Xian's heart had already reached its peak. He knew that in this era, the power of the prefect and the provincial governor were on par, but the provincial governor was always one level higher than the prefect.
Now that he had just taken up the post of provincial governor, there were no more than three mayors in Jinyang. There must be someone obstructing him from behind.
"Yuan Kui, He Jin!"
"Do you really think I won't dare to kill you?”
"Have you forgotten that I have the talisman and the Son of Heaven's Zhongxing Sword? It's not impossible for me to kill a few prefects!”Liu Xian muttered as he pressed down on the hilt of his sword.
"Courting death!" Cheng Yu sighed in his heart.
He had followed Liu Xian from the moment he sent out his troops. He knew Liu Xian's character all too well.
Liu Xian had a big heart and great compassion. He could treat everyone equally and look down on all living beings from above.
In the past, when Liu Xian shouted the word 'Lonely', there would definitely be Luoyang officials who were trampled by him.
Now, when Liu Xian shouted the words 'this marquis,' there would definitely be a prefect or a lieutenant who would shed blood in Jinyang.
