Yuan Huan looked at the paper full of words in front of him, rubbed his forehead and sighed, "Wen Ruo, order the Diannong officials in all counties of Jizhou to come to Yecheng within three days."

Xun Yu nodded in response, rarely without a smile on his face.

After years of melee, all parties had to maintain as many troops as possible. Their side was better. The lord saw the situation clearly, and tried not to recruit troops if he could, and kept the strong and strong laborers as much as possible among the people.

If they have money to buy grain, the premise is that the people have surplus grain to sell, the fields are barren, the people abandon their businesses, the people are famine and scattered, and they don’t have the mind to stabilize farming. In this case, money is useless.

After all the calculations, they never thought that the problem would come from their own side.

There were a lot of bamboo slips and papers piled up on the desk, and Yuan Huan flipped through a few more. He pondered for a long time with his eyes down, and finally made a decision, "By the way, let Feng Xian prepare the preparations, and follow me to this trip to Guanzhong in a few days."

Xun Yu was stunned for a moment, "Guanzhong is far away, and the road is bumpy and difficult. If the Lord has something to do, he can just ask Captain Cao to come back. Why go there in person?"

Cao Mengde is not an incompetent person, and there is nothing he can do if he is not so chaotic. My lord is really worried, so I went to look around Yecheng, instead of running all the way to Guanzhong. The turmoil there just started, and it will take time to stabilize. What can be done with turmoil?

"I don't feel relieved if I don't go and see for myself." Yuan Huan shook his head, obviously not listening to persuasion.

Food is a big problem, and the world is not yet stable. Whoever can solve the problem of people's food first will be able to seize the opportunity. Seeing that the situation is getting better day by day, they can't overturn their cars in their own backyard.

People depend on food, and if there is not enough food, nothing can be done.

When he first came to this world, the world was in chaos, there were soldiers and bandits everywhere, heroes came out in troubled times, and butchers who killed people without blinking an eye also came out, and those warriors and bandits who showed up at the beginning of the turmoil didn't care about the lives of the people, and there was no food They burned, killed and looted everywhere, squandered and wasted wantonly after grabbing food, and when there was nothing to grab, it was a matter of self-destruction.

It will collapse without attack, and it will fall apart overnight.

Small warlords and thieves are like this, and the big forces occupying states and counties are not going anywhere. It is clearly remembered in the history books that Yuan Shao's army was so poor that they picked mulberries for food, and Yuan Shu's army went down the river to catch clams and touched river mussels to satisfy their hunger. Cao Cao's army even mixed human flesh into the rations and distributed it to soldiers.

There is no confidence in fighting without any grain storage, so he would rather not have money than to ensure that there is always enough grain in the granary.

The people are displaced, and most of them don't know where they are going to flee after leaving their hometown. They can only blindly follow the large army to go as far as possible. It's okay if the leader of the team has a source of information. The biggest possibility is to find a random mountain to be a bandit.

Fame is a good thing, but it can only be spread to densely populated places such as Fucheng, County, etc. People in remote villages are most concerned about weather seasons and food harvests, and they have no time or channels to find out if there is someone famous in the world Very good.

Yuan Huan felt that he was very lucky. He forcibly "inherited" Dong Zhuo's inheritance at the beginning, and immediately started recruiting refugees after escaping from birth. With Dong Zhuo's backing of the gold and silver grains that Dong Zhuo had collected in advance, he would never be short of food and grass.

There is no shortage of food, but it does not mean that farming can be relaxed.

At the very beginning, someone proposed to take advantage of the great chaos and barrenness of the land to take all the land back to the government, and then distribute it to the common people for farming. This is how the Zhou emperor ruled the world in the pre-Qin period. It is certain that the system of well fields can last for so long It has its reason. It can not only solve the problem of unowned wasteland but also allow the people to have land to plant. It is enough to be popularized for emergency.

It is not a good idea to restore the old system. Even if the advantages outweigh the disadvantages under the circumstances at the time, it cannot be easily restored. Therefore, even if there are advantages and disadvantages to farming, in the end Yanzhou will implement the farming order, not the order to restore the well field system.

Tuntian order is more suitable for emergency than the well field system, but the emergency method can only be emergency after all, but not for a long time, and it will change if it is delayed for too long.

He originally thought that he could last a few more years, at least he would be free to solve these problems after he finished fighting the world, but time waits for no one, if he wants to stabilize the world, he will be able to be safe, the moment he wakes up in this body First change yourself to a new body that is strong enough to carry a tripod.

Good things like wishing things come true only exist in dreams, and in reality they have to be done step by step.

"Did you find out who put this thing in the bookstore?" Yuan Huan pinched his brows and asked with vigor, "It must be someone who can see the disadvantages of the north so clearly."

The scattered pieces of paper not only wrote about the shortcomings of the officials in Jizhou, but also clearly wrote about the disasters caused by the farming in Yanzhou, Guanzhong.

Farming is a good thing for the displaced people, but it is no longer a good thing for the people if the pianist officials obey the law, or increase taxes without authorization.

Xun Yu frowned, "Zhicai is investigating, and there should be some clues in a while."

That's what he said, but in fact he didn't give hope in his heart. The man put the things in the bookstore instead of the government, probably because he didn't want to be discovered by the government, but he couldn't figure it out. How did that person know that he and Xi Zhi would go to the bookstore? , How can we be sure that something will be in their hands instead of being discovered by others?

Xun Yu couldn't figure it out, he went to the bookstore just on a whim, he didn't tell others in advance, and he didn't go on a fixed number of days every month, could someone be watching at the gate of the government office all the time?

It shouldn't be so, if there is a stranger at the gate of the official office, the guards will not see them, and the surrounding area is heavily guarded, and they will not easily let strangers in.

Not long after, Xi Zhi came back with a blank expression on his face, and as expected, everything in the bookstore was as usual, and nothing was found.

The paper is the paper sold in the shop, and the ink is also the ink that can be found everywhere. The paper in their shop is cheap, and selling paper every day makes more money than selling books. So much paper is sold, and some people buy it and sell it to other places. Check the paper He Mo couldn't find anything at all.

The clerks in the shop said that they paid great attention to the books in the store, and it would take a long time to wipe any dust, let alone scattered papers on the ground. There are so many clerks in the shop, it is impossible for them to see something on the ground.

As a result, the direction of the matter suddenly became a little strange. It couldn't be that the pen in the bookstore became better and wrote it by himself?

Yuan Huan lowered his eyes, this kind of nagging method, he can only think of those famous warlocks in later generations, such as Zuo Ci, such as Yu Ji.

He had never heard of any famous sorcerer coming to Yecheng, nor had he read any book that said sorcerers would pay attention to people's livelihood issues. What's the situation?

Yuan Huan's eyes were dark, and he rubbed his fingertips and said softly, "Forget it, that person doesn't want to come out, and it's useless to send many people to look for him. It's time to step up your guard."

The other party has great powers, if they don't take the initiative to come out, how can they mortals have the ability to find out.

Since he doesn't want to come out, then he will do as he wishes, when and when love will come out, in view of the other party's initiative to send news, he accepts this favor, but wants to surprise him and immediately find someone in the city to serve you God still forgets.

Although he took his life in vain, and although he himself is very unscientific, he firmly believes that this is a scientific world, where gods, ghosts and ghosts do not exist. Letter together.

Nothing in this world can be relied on except himself. Compared with the gods and Buddhas, these talented generals around him are more reliable.

Security was strengthened in the city, and the people lived as usual. Half a month passed in a flash, and nothing unusual happened. It was as if the extra sheets of paper in the bookstore were produced by myself, and there was no trace of their source at all.

Soon, all the government defenses in the city were properly arranged, and Xun Yu, Ju Shou and others stayed in Yecheng. Except for the two bodyguards Lu Bu Dianwei, Yuan Huan took no one away.

A few carriages walked out of the city gate, with nearly a hundred strong and strong trilogy behind them. Except for the large number of trilogy, they looked no different from ordinary rich people going out.

The official road is spacious and flat, and there is no slight jolt when the carriage walks on it. After sitting for a while, Yuan Jing couldn't help but lift the curtain to look out. Dad is in the carriage in front, and he doesn't worry about Dad being blown by the wind when he lifts the curtain with.

"Brother Yi, have you never been out before?" The young master seldom travels far away, and he is curious about everything, "My father said that we moved from Zhongshan County to Yecheng for several days when we were young. It's flat now, and the road will suffer."

It was just that he was too young to remember what happened on the road.

Guo Yi was sitting in the carriage upright like a young adult, his face froze when he heard this, seeing that Yuan Jing was just talking to himself silently, he was relieved, and didn't want to recall the painful experience of traveling far away.

He remembers things early. There is an unreliable father in his family. He has to take on the responsibility of the whole family at a young age. If he is not sensible early on, how can he do it.

He was already three years old when his father and Mr. Xi Zhicai went from Yingchuan to Zhongshan, and he could remember many things. The journey was bumpy and hot, and he had to listen to two unreliable adults. Arguing in the carriage, God knows how he got through it.

Why doesn't he like to travel far? It's not because of his unreliable father. Even if he must go out, he is determined not to ride in a carriage with his father. This is his last stubbornness.

Outside is an endless field of fertile fields, and Yecheng gradually turns into a small black spot behind. There are many pedestrians on the official road, and farmers can be seen working in the fields from time to time. The undulating mountains can be seen from a distance, and the fertile land has turned into wasteland.

The Golden Crow falls to the west, the Jade Rabbit rises to the east, the twilight sweeps in, the world is silent, the motorcade stops to rest, and the little ones get off the carriage and gather around the fire, muttering endlessly.

Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Yuan Huan brought out several school-age children this time. The children who have been living in the splendor pile are not enough to guess what the outside looks like just by what is written in the books. Go out more often. There is no harm in going.

Cao Pi and Sun Quan had already remembered when they moved to Yecheng with their family members. It was a time of turmoil, and they could be considered to have seen the hardships of people's livelihood, but they couldn't do it any younger.

Young Master Yuan Jing discussed with his friends for a long time, and when he saw his father get off the carriage, he hurried over to inquire, "Is Daddy dizzy? Are you hungry? Do you want to take medicine?"

It's not easy to travel far away, Dad's health is the most important thing, while it's not too far away from Yecheng, if you don't feel well, turn around and go back, don't shy away from medical treatment.

Dad is an adult, and he can't be coaxed by others like a child.

Yuan Huan didn't have time to say a word when he got off the carriage, so the little guy just babbled a lot. The old father couldn't get in the way, so he had no choice but to let his son forcefully preach.

There is no shortage of people in Yecheng. When he goes out, Xun Yu and others will definitely stay. No matter what happens outside, the first thing to ensure is the safety of the rear.

Lv Bu came back after setting up a security guard, bypassed a few kids who were too excited after going out, and came to their lord. There is no danger in Jizhou, and the people of Jizhou have a good life. The government shows no mercy to bandits and thieves. In the past few years, even the bandits in the Taihang Mountains have traveled across the mountains to harm Bingzhou and dare not make mistakes in Jizhou.

Back then, the battle to eradicate the Black Bandits was a complete victory. Most of the Black Bandits hidden in the mountains were brought out and resettled. Those who remained in the mountains either hid too tightly and didn’t hear the news, or they just wanted to loot and didn’t want to. Congliang, the former can be punished lightly, while the latter cannot escape death even if he leaves the mountain.

There is a big difference between seeing blood and not seeing blood, but it is impossible for anyone who has led soldiers and fought in battle to not see the difference between the two.

The bandits and robbers in the border of Jizhou fled, and the situation became more and more chaotic as they went west. Cao Cao was busy in Guanzhong to keep as many people alive as possible, and could not spare much energy to suppress the bandits. A place as big as Guanzhong, eight hundred miles away Pingchuan Woye, God knows how many people will starve to death if farming is not resumed as soon as possible.

In a word, it is dangerous to leave Jizhou, and the lord must be prepared.

"Thank you for your hard work. In the past few days, let the guards pay more attention to the surrounding situation and try not to disturb the people." Yuan Huan knew what was going on outside, even if they were in Jizhou, it was impossible for them to be completely free of bandits, but they were strictly guarded. People with bad intentions dare not come out easily.

Jizhou is rich, but its area is about the same as that of Qingzhou. It is the smallest state among the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty. Jingzhou and Yizhou are larger than the entire Jizhou. It is said that Jizhou is well governed.

He doesn't go out of the city very often, and only occasionally walks around the city to feel the excitement. People like Jushou and Xun Yu basically go to other counties and counties to visit every few days. Help them understand the situation.

If they didn't see it with their own eyes this time, they wouldn't know how serious the situation is. Fortunately, they found it early and cleaned up those silverfish in time. What he has done all these years is a joke.

The art of ruling a country is to have enough food and strong soldiers. Even the most basic survival of the people cannot be guaranteed, and no matter how strong the soldiers are, it is useless.

The convoy headed to Guanzhong without any haste, and at night they set up camp to rest. After walking slowly for more than half a month, they finally arrived at Guanzhong. After the initial excitement, the little ones were bored with nothing to do, and began to lie on the window and look outside.

"Brother Yi, it is said that we are coming out this time for a big event. Could it be the kind of big event that can be rewarded for meritorious service?" Cao Zhang is not young and ambitious. ask.

As soon as the reward was mentioned, half of the young people in the carriage were excited. Sun Yi raised his hand actively and asked, "Can we also make meritorious service? How much credit? Can we become officials after we go back?"

Sun Sanlang's enthusiasm for being an official is very high. With his eldest brother and Cao's elder brother making a good start, the children of the two families regret that they were born too late. Their father and their brother are so powerful, and there are a group of them There are seniors who are comparable to my brother, do they still have a chance to stand out when they grow up?

Alas, it's really worrying.

Guo Yi frowned when he heard the question, "Did you wake up?"

Still doing meritorious deeds, if they don't make trouble, it's already very good.What do you think this is?

Yuan Jing withdrew his gaze, rubbed Cao Zhang's head and said in a low voice, "It's very rare for us to come out this time, and it's good to travel far to gain insights, so don't be so anxious."

"You can't be in a hurry, brother Jing." Cao Zhang sighed seriously, holding his face and wishing he could be born 20 years earlier.

Sun Yi sat next to him and chimed in, "When we grow up, it will be too late. Don't be in a hurry now. When we grow up, we can only watch our father and brothers contribute to their achievements. There will be no place to cry."

Feng Hou Baixiang sounds so powerful, and they want it too, not because of the title they got from their father or brother, but because of their own achievements. Otherwise, everyone else will be famous in the battlefield, and they will only be left with "Oh!" , This is so-and-so's son" "Oh, this is so-and-so's younger brother", how embarrassing they are.

Guo Yi listened to their nonsense indescribably, shook his head and continued to look outside.

Guo Xiaoyi, the oldest brother in the carriage, has been more stable than others since he was a child. His father, Guo Jia, has a wild personality. When he comes to him, he will become a little old-fashioned. Cry, they have different dignity, how can they keep fighting like children.

It's a pity that even their father's Shangguan and the father of Yuan Jing's little son are more willing to see the intimacy between the children, Guo Xiaoyi tried to fight but couldn't hold back his little friends, and finally he could only be wronged and continue to scream.

"Don't be discouraged, keep your eyes on the long-term." Yuan Jing shook his head to comfort his little friend, feeling a little childish and hastened to sit up straight, he was bound to learn from his father's three-point charm, "The Central Plains is stable, so we can devote our energy to chasing the Huns Yu Mobei, Lie two counties in Yinshan."

A long, long time ago, the state of Qin annexed the world with strict farming and warfare. They pacified the Central Plains and restored agriculture and mulberry.

Cao Zhang and Sun Yi's eyes lit up, and they suddenly opened the door to a new world.

They have all learned the feat of General Wei Qing who "attacked Longcheng, took over Heshuo, expelled the Xiongnu from Mobei, and listed the two counties in Yinshan". Dahe, Liejun Qilian" story, yes, when the Central Plains settle down, they can beat the barbarians!

The Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Xianbei... so many dishonest barbarians are waiting for them to fight, why do they focus on the three-acre land in the Central Plains? The situation is small, brothers.

Cao Zhang waved his fists, stood up excitedly and said boldly, "I have decided, I will fight for meritorious service in the future, and when I come back, I will be a general of hussars."

Sun Yi frowned, and immediately pushed him down, "No, I'm the Hussar General, you can change your name to something else."

Yuan Jing raised her eyebrows, "Why doesn't anyone want to be a general?"

Sun Yi and Cao Zhang stopped fighting in surprise, and replied in unison, "Because we can't beat Marquis Wen."

Guo Yi: ...

Please don't make trouble.

Guo Xiaoyi rubbed his face, and slowly turned half of his body to the window. If it wasn't for the lack of fanfare when he went out this time, and the carriage was not enough for each person, he would like to apply for another carriage now.

It doesn't matter how old he is, he can ride a horse alone.

The carriage unknowingly rounded the curve, the sun was shining and the breeze was breezy, it was supposed to be a good weather to go out and play, but there was only a barren land in sight, at the foot of the mountain, people in ragged clothes were walking towards the mountain with sticks, each of them was skinny Guo Yi subconsciously put down the car curtain when he broke into his sight so suddenly.

They were told what to do when they went out this time, and they knew that there was a problem in the Guanzhong area, but after all, they were children who had never been out of their homes. They didn't see groups of refugees on the road and thought that all places were the same. No one spoke when they arrived at the refugees who were naked and covered in mud.

Compared with the days of stability and peace, promotion and honors seem to be less important.
