The man replied: "Yes, their shopkeepers all live in the city, and they are not far from each other."

Li Huiyi nodded and said: "Okay, can I please help the folks to lead the way, I would like to meet them."

Hearing that Li Huiyi was going to meet people from the two families, the people were overjoyed and hurriedly expressed their willingness to lead the way. Seeing this, Li Huiyi asked soldiers to follow them and prepared to summon the two families for questioning.

After this happened, Li Huiyi was not in the mood to drink, so he just waited for an hour until the two families arrived.

Maybe Li Huiyi was already waiting, so he didn't turn away the others, and asked directly, "I'm going to ask you, why are you still not open for business when all the troops have entered the city?"

The shopkeepers of Zhen and Shen looked at each other and knelt down to answer.

"General, all the items in Zhen's shop were confiscated by Cao Jun half a year ago, and they were said to be under centralized management. They will be returned when the war is over."

"General, the Shen family is also there, so I have nothing to sell now."

It turned out to be the reason, Li Huiyi frowned, and asked, "If that's the case, why didn't you report earlier?"

The treasurer of Zhen's family replied: "I waited for others to speak lightly. I was afraid that I might not see the general, so I didn't come."

This idea is also normal. It is really difficult for an ordinary merchant to meet the ruler.

Hearing the explanation, Li Huiyi didn't continue to ask further questions, but glanced at the people nearby and asked the soldiers to take them out.

And guarantee that there will be shops open tomorrow, sell some daily necessities, and at the same time ask the soldiers to give them some food.

Seeing Li Huiyi's gentleness and kindness, the common people knelt down and kowtowed in gratitude before leaving with the soldiers.

The common people live without food. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, otherwise the consequences would be very serious. Li Huiyi made this mistake not because he was dazzled by the victory, but because he was too confident in Shen and Zhen, thinking that they would have a way to stabilize the situation. people's livelihood.

Knowing the reason at this time, it is natural to arrange it properly, Li Huiyi said: "Since you have nothing to sell, I will give you a portion of the general's grain, and it will be open tomorrow, and sold at the normal rice price to ensure that the common people can afford it. "

The shopkeeper of the Shen family said, "General, even if it is sold at the normal price of rice, the common people will not be able to buy it unless it is sold at a low price or paid for by labor."

These ordinary people have no extra money at home, and they bought food from aristocratic families at a high price in the past, but now it can be said that they are completely clean.

Li Huiyi turned his eyes slightly, and said slowly: "Shen's Bank, can't we draw out money and loan it to the people?"

The shopkeeper of the Shen family replied: "General, the store was suddenly closed down by Cao Jun earlier, and the higher ups were afraid that it would intensify, so all the funds have been secretly transferred away."

Without money, Li Huiyi was also in a dilemma for a while. If the food was released for free, it would be a lot of money, and some people would become dependent. It is best to let them rely on themselves.

Li Huiyi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and said, "In this way, you will open normally tomorrow, and the people will come to exchange food with paper stamped with the general's seal. There is a number of liters on it, and you can sell it according to the ticket."

Anyway, it was all Li Huiyi's, so there was no objection to what he said or what the two of them did.

However, in order not to make mistakes, the treasurer of the Zhen family asked: "General, I have never seen the real thing. If someone fakes it, I may not be able to tell the difference."

Hearing this, Li Huiyi asked the soldiers to fetch the seal, and for the sake of conservatism, he used a dagger to carve the word Li on it, and intentionally made an extra faint mark.

After finishing it, Li Huiyi stamped two on the spot, pointed out the mark he made, and let the two of them remember it in their hearts, and put it away for comparison and receipt tomorrow.

Li Huiyi's arrangement was perfect, so the two of them didn't have any worries, and went to collect the food with the soldiers after receiving it.

After the two left, Li Huiyi ordered someone to find Xiao Wang, personally wrote down the certificates of different numbers of buckets, liters, stones, etc. on the spot, stamped the seal and asked him to go back and manufacture a large number of samples.

At the same time, he told him to distribute it at the gate of the government office tomorrow morning, complete the registration of receipt, and tell him about some matters such as returning it in the future, so that he can tell the people truthfully.

Li Huiyi's method is very simple, that is, to issue this kind of bill, which is equivalent to lending food to the people, but there is a certain interest, but it is very low, and it can be regarded as a disguised relief.

As for the people's repayment ability, it doesn't matter. Li Huiyi gave these registered people three years to allocate a certain amount of wasteland according to their heads, and let them open up wasteland by themselves. I believe that when they harvest next year, they should be self-sufficient. The only difficult thing is , just now.

Xiao Wang is now in the logistics, and has become a small and medium manager, so it can be considered that Li Huiyi has repaid his life-saving grace.

Xiao Wang kept all this in his heart, and when he returned, he urgently called in manpower to quickly imitate a large number of products.

Looking back at Li Huiyi's place, after making all the arrangements, the joy of drinking was gone, and naturally the banquet could not continue, and it was replaced as a place for discussion.

Li Huiyi's solution is indeed very good, but it is a long-term solution, and there is still no solution at the moment, because relying on invoice relief alone will cost a lot.

At this time, Guo Jia remonstrated: "General, Mouyi City alone has a population of tens of thousands, so the subsequent occupation of the city must have the same situation. I am afraid that there must be a perfect strategy."

"Jia believes that we should find other livelihoods for them and try to make them less accepting relief, such as hunting and breeding."

"En." Li Huiyi didn't know, if you have something, you don't just hunt when you say hunting, but you can raise it when you say breeding.

After thinking for a while, Li Huiyi said, "Hey, can this work? There must be big families in the city who buy some livestock from them and then buy them for the common people to breed."

Chapter 702 Supporting the Common People

"In addition, during this season, the common people can go fishing. There shouldn't be much problem as this place is close to the water."

Li Huiyi actually has many methods, but the technology of this era cannot be realized, so he can only propose these backward and inefficient strategies.

After Li Huiyi finished speaking, Tai Shici stood up and said: "General, there are many wounded and useless war horses in our army, why not sell them to the common people and let them breed them."

Although this battle lasted only six or seven hours, it was extremely tragic. There were tens of thousands of casualties on the Xiliang iron cavalry alone, and the casualties on the horses were naturally not small.

According to Li Jun's usual practice, those wounded and useless war horses were kept as rations or used as foot strength, but now they may be able to achieve miraculous results.

As for the actors in the movie, it is impossible for the war horses to be placed to die of old age after being eliminated, because this is an era of food shortage.

Li Huiyi said with a smile on his face: "This method is good. We can implement it together tomorrow. At the same time, tell the people that if ponies are produced in the future, the government can recycle them at a high price."

Guo Jia agreed: "Okay, in this way, within a few years, Zhongmu may become a place for producing horses."

"Hahaha!" Guo Jia's reverie made Li Huiyi laugh knowingly, which seemed to be exactly what he meant.

After the matter is resolved, Li Huiyi will not keep these generals, after all, they all need to rest and recover after the battle.

The next day, with the opening of the rice shop, Li Jun distributed food purchase vouchers in the city, etc., and the whole Zhongmu City became lively.

Seeing the disabled war horse for sale next to it, the common people watched curiously. When they learned that it was for sale, they were eager to move for a while, but then they thought they were penniless, so they could only stop there.

However, following the explanation of the horse seller soldiers, these people learned that they don't need money to buy it, and they only need to return a young horse or thirty shi of grain within three years.

Compared with ordinary people, this is a huge advantage. You must know that horses in the Han Dynasty were precious items, and an ordinary horse could sell for more than forty gold.

As for the sick and injured, they need at least fifteen gold or more. That is to say, after three years, they will get a horse for nothing. If they are lucky, they will have another pony in a few years, and they will get two or more. .

Some clever and daring ones couldn't help but feel frantic when they thought about it, and hurried forward to register their names and the names of the immediate family members.

Those who have completed the registration will lead the wounded horse and a soldier to go home together to confirm and verify.

Looking at the people who kept coming forward, some timid and hesitant, endured the restlessness and left, and went to another crowded crowd.

Although raising a horse is very tempting, there is still a slight risk. If the injured horse dies within three years, then the thirty stones of grain will be in vain.

The people who turned to other places learned that there was still free wasteland, and excitedly shouted that the general was a reborn parent.
