Don't make trouble, let's build infrastructure!

After arranging the new soldiers, Tong Ran carried the little tiger back to the study.But halfway, the little tiger ran back to the main courtyard to sleep.

The tiger cub in his family didn't grow up, but his intention was to get bigger and bigger. Tong Ran had no choice but to arrange a servant to take care of him, and ran away with the little tiger at this time.

Tong Ran was about to enter the study, but she caught a glimpse of Gu Lan at the side, and couldn't help asking, "Why are you still here?" He is the deputy supervisor and has his own office.

Gu Lan cupped her hands: "My lord, I have something to discuss with you."

Tong Ran was suspicious: "Come in."

After entering, Sang Le counted the freshly brewed tea, and Tong Ran took a sip and asked Gu Lan, "What's the matter?"

Gu Lan said: "My lord, you have rectified the inspector's mansion, do you want to go to the miners' place next time?"

Tong Ran put down his teacup, this was indeed his plan, and said, "The undercover agents have to be dealt with first, do you have any information about them?"

Gu Lan smiled immediately, and took out a roll of paperwork from her sleeve: "It has been checked, sir, please have a look."

When Tong Ran took the document, she couldn't help but look at Gu Lan more.

Gu Lan: "My lord, what do you think I am doing? Regarding the situation of those undercover agents, it is written all over the document."

Tong Ran rerolled the document and said, "My eyes are tired, please tell me."

After finishing speaking, Tong Ran really leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and regained his composure.

Gu Lan didn't go to get the paperwork in Tong Ran's hand. She recalled it for a while, and said: "Those undercover agents who mixed in with the mob were actually miners. Shang Jiang bought them one after another more than half a year ago. The function is to stabilize people’s hearts. Starting half a year ago, the prison began to default on wages, and even refused to pay them. Naturally, the miners were not happy, so Shang Jiang let these people go out of the way to calm people’s hearts.”

"How to appease?" Tong Ran asked.

Gu Lan said: "It's nothing more than talking about the difficulties in the prison, shifting the responsibility for not paying wages to the imperial court, and shaping Shang Jiang's tall image, and then painting a big cake for everyone to work together to overcome the difficulties. At first this trick worked, but later the workers couldn’t see the money and it gradually became ineffective, and when the adults came, the workers’ anger couldn’t be restrained, and it was easy to incite people.”

Tong Ran opened the file and quickly scanned the situation of several undercover agents' homes. They were all seniors and juniors. Shang Jiang didn't pay wages and lured them with small profits. It's normal for these people to work for him.

Gu Lan: "My lord, what do you plan to do with these people? Are they all...killed?"

Tong Ran shook his head: "Can't kill."

Gu Lan: "Why?"

Tong Ran: "First, they are not guilty of death. Second, since they can appease Shang Jiang's hearts and incite them at the right time, they must be quite popular among the miners. I am new here, and it is time to win people's hearts. Killing them is not good for me to take over the iron mine."

Gu Lan: "Adults are kind."

Tong Ran glanced at him, and Gu Lan said again: "Your Excellency can replace all one hundred guards, why can't you replace five thousand miners? There are workers who want to come to the public mines."

Tong Ran laughed: "These workers are all skilled workers, how could I easily change them? Could it be that if I recruit a new group of people, I can teach them how to mine?"

Gu Lan was stunned for a moment, and said with a sneer, "It's because the lower officials didn't think carefully."

It was only when Tong Ran said this that he realized that the reason why they were able to withdraw and replace a hundred soldiers was not only because of sufficient reserves, but also because Tong Ran had You Yang and other imperial guards in his hands. When new people came, they would be taught immediately , but the miners are not, so it is impossible to really change all 5000 people.

"Then what is your lord going to do with it?" Gu Lan asked again.

"Kill, it's true that I can't kill them, but I can think of a way to make them work for me," Tong Ran said.

Next to the mining area, there is a patch of low, dilapidated houses. Bamboo poles are set up in the open space between the houses, and clothes, quilts and other things are hung on them to dry.

Jinhejian's miners and smelters all live here, as do their families, old and young. Many of them have been mining for generations, and they can't do anything else except this.

"A lot of people were killed in the front." There were a dozen men crowded in a room, and one of them lowered his voice.

Jinhejian only has the inspector's mansion and the workers in the mining area, and there are no poor people. Because the inspector's mansion is connected to the outside world and the mining area is more closed, they are used to calling the inspector's mansion the front.

"I sneaked a look, and the blood flowed like a river." Another person said.

"Master Shang is dead, and we don't have much money to take in the future. Old You, you are the oldest here, what can you tell me?" On a man of about fifty years of age.

The man called Lao You had a dark face and tight muscles on his arms. He was blind in one eye, and he swept through everyone one by one with the remaining one. "The new inspector has already distributed us food and clothing, what are you going to do?"

"But after all, we were in trouble with him, can he let us go?" the younger man asked.

"Whether you let it go or not, you'll find out after a while." Lao You said.

"No," the young man said, "We are all old and young, we can't just sit around like this, we have to make arrangements."

"Ke Yang is right." His words aroused some resonance.

Old You said again: "How do you plan to deal with it?"

Ke Yang opened his mouth and fell silent.

Shangjiang's party all beheaded, and the remaining soldiers were either exiled or sent back to their original places. Although they had many miners, they were leaderless.In the past, they could still incite a little bit, but the food, food, and food from the inspector's office were delivered at the right time, and everyone was very grateful. I heard that some people have already set up the longevity tablet of the new inspector at home.How is it possible to incite public opinion against him under such circumstances?

"Maybe, we should take the family and escape as soon as possible?" Someone suggested another idea.

Old You glanced at him with one eye: "Where are you going?"

The man said: "Go to the west and do business!"

Lao You: "The desert to the west can eat people. If you go there to do business, you are close to death. How can you survive?"

Lao You's voice fell, and the man stopped talking.

Lao You stood up and said: "Everyone, listen to me, don't make things difficult for the supervisor. If he is willing to let us go, we will pretend that nothing happened and just work hard. If he does not let us go, Let's try our best to ask him to let the family pee."

The room was suddenly very quiet. Several people lowered their heads, while others still held their heads up, with unwilling faces.

Ke Yang said: "We helped Shang Jiang back then, just in exchange for a bite of food, why is it that he is unlucky now, and we have to be buried with him?"

When he spoke, he didn't lower his voice any more, his words swayed across the room, including Lao You, there was no sound.

dong dong——

The air leaking door on the north side of the house was knocked suddenly.

"Master You, an official is looking for you." The man outside the door said.

The people in the room looked at each other, and some people's backs were already soaked.

In the end, Lao You said, "Understood, let's go out now." After speaking, he opened the door first and walked out.

The last time You Yang brought people to deliver food, clothing, and food, Yuan San did not come with him. This time he ran errands for Tong Ran, which was the first time he entered the workers' residential area.The houses here are low, messy, and dilapidated than their poorest neighbors in Xiaoguo County.

When Yuan San saw Lao You and the others, he took out the list and asked them one by one.

Coincidentally, all the people Tong Ran wanted were in the same place, so he saved his time and said immediately: "Please come with me, the Supervisor is here to invite you."
