Chapter 336 Preparations before the Great Migration

Chu Mo didn't care about those officials from the Household Department, so he winked at Shopkeeper Liu.

Shopkeeper Liu immediately led several officials to the private room upstairs in a familiar manner.

After everyone left, Chu Mo opened the imperial edict in his hand. After looking at it for a while, he found that there were many traditional Chinese characters on it that he didn't recognize.

Before Chu Mo could speak, Yang Hongyu rolled her eyes at him and took the imperial edict in her hand to read.

After a while, Yang Hongyu said: "Li Shimin has made you the county man and the prefect of Nanhai County. You are responsible for all affairs, taxation, and removal of officials in Nanhai County. You are only responsible to His Majesty the Emperor."

"In addition, Li Shimin also specially gave you a quota of 3000 military guards, so that you can stay in Nanhai County with peace of mind. You will not be allowed to return to Beijing without special recruitment."

"As for the matter of appeasing the people you mentioned, it was only briefly mentioned. You should be asked to discuss it with the officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs."

After hearing what Yang Hongyu said, Chu Mo smacked his lips and said dissatisfied: "This Li Er is so stingy. He only gave me the title of county boy and then wanted to get rid of me. How can it be that simple?"

Yang Hongyu snorted coldly. She didn't know when her jade hand reached Chu Mo's waist and pinched it hard.

"You are an unlearned and unskilled disciple who is not satisfied with a title. If you are illiterate, you probably still want to be a prince."

Chu Mo stepped on his feet and twisted his body along with Yang Hongyu's hand. He begged for mercy over and over again and said sternly: "What's so great about a prince? Believe it or not, I'll let that cheap sister succeed in her rebellion in the future. I'll be crowned King of Side by Side." Let me show you."

"Oh, really, why didn't I see that you have such a big ambition? Haven't you always been unmotivated? Why, are you after some young lady? Why don't you try to improve yourself first? "

Originally, Chu Mo thought Yang Hongyu was blaming herself for being illiterate and deliberately punishing herself.

But after hearing this, could he still not understand? It must have been overheard when he and Yang Hongqian were flirting with each other just now.

Turning around, he saw that Yang Hongqian was already hiding far away and was looking at him with a funny look on his face.

Chu Mo immediately regretted it when he thought that he had overturned his jealousy just because of a few words.

Feeling the pain, he grabbed Yang Hongyu's delicate hand and said, "Madam, I'm rough-skinned and thick-skinned. Please take it easy and be careful not to hurt your delicate hand. I'll feel bad for you."

After saying that, he touched the catkins twice, and then while Yang Hongyu was shy, he quickly broke away from the other party's clutches and rushed upstairs.

Looking at Chu Mo's hastily escaping, and then looking at Yang Hongqian who was watching the excitement, Yang Hongyu secretly cursed her enemy and returned directly to the backyard.

When Chu Mo entered the private room, he saw shopkeeper Liu attentively chatting with several officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs.

He coughed and drew everyone's attention to himself.

"Everyone, I don't know that His Majesty the Emperor asked you to come here. Do you have any other instructions?"

When several people saw Chu Mo coming in, they hurriedly saluted.

A tall and elegant middle-aged official raised his hands to Chu Mo and said, "Your Majesty Chu, I am wearing a hat. Currently, I am acting as the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. I have long admired your reputation. Your Majesty has sent us to assist you in relocating this time." Regarding the matter, I hope you will give me some advice."

After speaking, Dai Zhou introduced several Ministry of Household officials beside him to Chu Mo one by one.

After listening to everyone's introduction, Chu Mo nodded: "I have already discussed this relocation with Li Er..."

Everyone was shocked when they heard Chu Mo calling Li Shimin by his first name. Although they had heard that Chu Mo was a fool before, they didn't expect him to be so tough.

"Master Chu, please be careful about what you say. Calling the current sage by his first name is a crime of great disrespect. Sir, please..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Chu Mo: "So and so, you don't want dogs to meddle in other people's business. I said this in front of Li Yuan and Li Shimin. They don't have any objections themselves, but you do. ?”

"Why, their names were not chosen to be called? But to be worshiped? If you have any objections, you have to go to Li Shimin directly in the morning and ask him what he thinks."

Dai Zhou glanced at the official who spoke dissatisfiedly, and then smiled apologetically at Chu Mo: "Master Chu, you misunderstood. My subordinate just has a bit of a brain that can't turn around, and he can't use his brain when talking. You must be careful." Don’t take it personally.”

Seeing Dai Zhou speak, Chu Mo didn't intend to go into details. He glanced at everyone coldly and said, "When you work here, you must follow my rules. If you have any objections, go directly to Li Shimin to complain."

Everyone saw that Chu Mo kept talking about His Majesty the Emperor. Although they were unhappy, they did not dare to get angry anymore.

Just kidding, if he really had to go to Li Shimin to complain according to Chu Mo's words, I'm afraid the other party would have nothing wrong with him, and he would have to go in first.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Chu Mo snorted and said: "You also know that you are here to assist me with the relocation matters."

"I don't care about anything else. I only have a few requirements. First of all, the number of people you send to register must be sufficient. I don't want those who come to register to have to wait in line for less than half an hour to register."

"Secondly, help me publicize it. I don't care what method you use, whether it's beating gongs and drums, or posting notices all over the street. I just ask you to publicize the recruitment of people in Nanhai County to all people within half a month. As you all know, I will send someone to investigate when the time comes."

"Finally, and the most critical point, everyone who has registered in our Nanhai County according to their household registration, regardless of their age, male or female, old or weak, can receive a cotton-padded coat, twenty kilograms of charcoal fire, and twenty Kilograms of grain.”

"From the date of registration, everyone has one month to prepare. One month later, we will send special personnel to escort these migrating people to Nanhai County in batches. Of course, they can also go on their own and stop at stations along the way. Supplies will also be carried out according to the guidance they hold."

"When they start their journey to Nanhai County, supplies will be distributed to them at various stations along the way. When they arrive in Nanhai County, after registering their household registration, each person will receive a settling-in allowance of 3 taels of silver per family. If they carry If there are large livestock, they will also be given based on the head fee.”

"You need to send special personnel to explain my policies to benefit the people at the migration registration office, so that they know the benefits of migration."

"After handling these, when the preparation time limit is up, you still need to send people door-to-door to help me confirm whether these registered people have taken the initiative to set off as agreed. If there are no special circumstances and deliberately delay the departure time, then they will be treated as fugitives Process them and dispatch them to Nanhai County."
