The next day.
Chang 'an was foggy, and the sky was just breaking, revealing a hint of white.
In Taiji Palace, the morning court session had already come to an end.
"Your Majesty, the order to deal with the flood has been issued. All parts of the country were actively responding. The officials in the Jiangnan area were already organizing the refugees. They all chose to work as a form of relief and joined the local team that was digging the canal.”
The assistant minister of the Ministry of Works reported to Li Shi Min, his eyes filled with shock,"The million refugees were all digested by Jiangnan in just a day. No one caused trouble, and no more refugees would head north again in the future.”
"I believe that it won't be long before all the places will recover.”
The civil and military officials were also discussing this and sighing in their hearts.
They knew that the flood control plan had miraculous effects.
Unexpectedly, the refugee problem that had troubled them for a long time was solved in just one day.
After the refugees settled down, the flood was no longer a problem.
In a few years, when the canals were dug and connected to the Grand Canal, they could not predict how far the Great Tang would rise.
This plan was enough for the Great Tang to soar.
Thinking of this, the officials couldn't help but laugh and relax.
The Great Tang had only been established for a short time.
His foundation was unstable.
After the incident at Black Tortoise Gate, the entire Great Tang was on the verge of collapse.
Many foreign countries were eyeing them covetously.
Such a huge situation had even occurred internally. It was both internal and external.
If he couldn't deal with it in time. The Great Tang was in grave danger.
They were all citizens of the Great Tang, and if the Great Tang were to perish, they would also be subjects of the Great Tang.
With the refugees pacified, the Great Tang would have a chance to catch its breath.
In a few years, he would be able to stabilize and not fear any threats.
"However, Your Majesty, I still have one more thing.”
The assistant minister looked at the harmonious atmosphere in the hall and couldn't bear to break it. However, after hesitating for a moment, he still spoke.
"Yes."
Li Shi Min raised his hand.
"According to the news from all over the world, the project of digging a canal is extremely huge. With millions of refugees joining, it is inevitable that there will be some sly people among them. It was fine for people from the same hometown. After all, building their own hometown would be of great benefit to their children and grandchildren.”
" That's why they're quite active. However, the refugees are completely different. In a short period of time, they don't have any sense of identity with the place they're in.”
"Some people are lazy, but they can enjoy the same treatment as them. This makes the villagers extremely dissatisfied. There are often conflicts between the two.”
"If this matter is not resolved, the conflict will only intensify.”
"Did they not tell them that as long as they are active, they can join the local origin?" Li Shimin frowned.”
"I've already conveyed it."
The assistant minister of the Ministry of Works couldn't help but smile bitterly." But they've just joined and haven't blended in yet. How can they think about future problems? They just want to fill their stomachs. That's enough."”
"What about the person in charge?"
Li Shimin asked again.
"Most of the people in charge are dispatched from the local area. However, the project volume was too large, and there were not enough supervisors. It was the limit for one person to manage a hundred people, but they had to manage thousands of people, so it was inevitable that there would be some negligence.”
The assistant minister answered truthfully.
Li Shi Min nodded, knowing that the assistant minister was telling the truth.
It was also something that could not be avoided.
Millions of refugees were of great importance. How could the locals dispatch so many people to manage them?
The county also needed to operate.
thing. It was as if they had entered a dead end again.
"Dear ministers, do you have any good ideas?”
Pondering for a moment, Li Shi Min raised his head and looked at the officials.
The civil and military officials looked at each other. They had not expected that there would be such a mistake in this matter.
It was still human nature.
After thinking for a long time, he could not think of a solution.
The refugees had lost their homes. Although they had been provided with food, they had just stabilized and were extremely sensitive.
They couldn't use heavy punishment, or else it would easily cause a riot among millions of refugees.
At that time, it would be a little difficult to end it.
How could it be so easy to manage millions of people?
"Your Majesty, why don't we introduce a reward system? The more you work, the more you get. If you cheat, we'll reduce the food for that day.”
Wei Zheng stood up and suggested.
Li Shi Min's eyes lit up. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head.
"This matter still can't be implemented. In the reward and punishment system, manpower was a problem.”
Li Shimin sighed." The original management was already too busy. Now, with the addition of the reward and punishment system, everyone will calculate every day. How can the local government implement such a huge project?”
When Wei Zheng heard this, he stroked his beard and didn't say anything else.
Manpower. It was indeed a problem.
However, they couldn't just leave it alone. They could tell that if this continued, the conflict between the locals and the refugees would be out of control in less than three days.
It really exploded.
That would not be a simple ending.
Even if Li Shi Min gave the order, he couldn't control them.
The law does not punish the people.
All the officials were in a dilemma.
"Your Majesty, why not invite the person who proposed this over and listen to his opinion? Perhaps he will have some ideas.”
Wei Zheng thought for a moment and suggested.
Firstly, he wanted to see what kind of extraordinary person this person was.
He had been curious for a long time.
Secondly…They were indeed helpless.
Since this person could propose such a good flood control policy, he must have other ways.
This sentence woke him up from his dream.
Li Shimin could not help but nod. This person might have a way.
"It's about time. It's time to invite him out for the officials to see.”
Li Shiming glanced at Wei Zheng and smiled. Then, he turned to Li Changsheng.
"Since that's the case, let's invite him over and let the civil and military officials meet him.”
Li Changsheng immediately understood.”
After saluting Li Shi Min, he quickly walked out of the hall.
His steps were steady and full of confidence. He did not look old at all.
Li Shi Min's words piqued the curiosity of all the officials.
They all wanted to see who could come up with such a brilliant plan.
