Chapter 284 The Prime Minister's Plan
As for the rest who don't believe it, it's because the road from Yongchang is really too difficult and dangerous. Coming from there, it's not an exaggeration to narrowly escape death, but it's definitely not an exaggeration to lose half of them.
But now they are outside Pingyi County, and there are only a few people on the other side, so he is not worried.
"Thank you very much! Dare I ask if Li Dudu is in the city at this time?"
"I don't know about this. If you have something to do, you can go to the city gate to identify yourself. I think someone will take you to see the person in charge in the city."
After the visitor thanked them, he turned around and glanced at the Liaoman who were silently gnawing on their food with his eyes out of sight, revealing a trace of sadness.
"Brother Eleven, Li Dudu led his troops to the south, everyone knows this, why didn't you tell him clearly?"
After those people continued to walk towards the Qiancheng gate, someone asked a question.
"What do you know? Where did Dudu Li go? That's what we can say? They all carry weapons, and they are not kind people at first glance. Before their identities are determined, who would dare to say this to them?" ?”
Wang Ping had just finished inspecting the surrounding city gates, and had just returned to the Dudu's mansion, when he suddenly saw a report from the soldiers below, saying that the prince and his wife of Yongchang County in the south had sent people across the rebel land, and came to ask Li Dudu .
"What?"
Wang Ping suddenly got up, "How many people can live in Yongchang? How many people are here?"
"Go back to the general, five people are here."
Wang Ping walked back and forth a few steps, and said excitedly, "This is great. For the past year, Yongchang County has been unable to find any news. I didn't expect to send an envoy to bring the news today. Tell them to come in quickly."
"promise."
The soldier responded, and just as he turned around and walked to the door, Wang Ping suddenly shouted again, "Wait!"
He pondered for a moment and asked, "Did they ever bring tokens?"
"Back to the general, the leader of them said that the token can only be given after meeting Li Dudu."
Wang Ping nodded, he understood the cautiousness of these people.
However, he himself had his own caution, and immediately ordered, "In this case, I will not see them. Take them down and make arrangements. Remember, no outsiders are allowed to see them until Dudu Li returns."
"As ordered."
Wang Ping thought for a while, and sent someone to bring his own message, and went south to deliver it to Li Hui.
May is the harvest season.
On the edge of Dujiangyan, Zhuge Liang led the prime minister's mansion to join the army and Jiang Wan was standing on the ground, looking at the golden wheat waves all over the ground and the farmers harvesting wheat, a satisfied smile appeared on his normally serious face.
Not far behind them, soldiers guarded the surroundings, not letting anyone approach without notification.
"In the winter of last year, the prime minister ordered all the newly reclaimed land in Dujiangyan to be planted with wheat. Some ministers in the DPRK and China privately discussed that it was inappropriate not to plant millet. At this time, it seems that the prime minister's move , It’s a wonderful feat.”
Looking at the scene of a good harvest, Jiang Wan was also very happy, so she couldn't help but said aloud.
"Oh, where did Gongyan get the idea of counting?"
Uncharacteristically, Zhuge Liang stared greedily at the scene in front of him, reluctant to move away, and said.
"The summer grain produced by these fields can already be regarded as a bumper harvest. If the autumn grain is harvested again, I am afraid that there will be no worries about food for the prime minister's big event next year. Is this considered a one-time gain?"
"Good harvest, great harvest!"
Zhuge Liang only felt that he was very happy, and couldn't help laughing.
Wheat is already produced more than millet, and with deep plowing, more can be harvested.
Last year, everyone said that Sichuan was ripe, but they didn't expect that this year's grain harvest would be more than last year. Isn't this a bumper harvest?
"Secondly, the wheat is ground into powder and then sold as dry food. I don't know how much more money is charged than just selling grain. This can be regarded as saving grain and saving money. Can it be regarded as two gains?"
"Forget it, naturally!"
Zhuge Liang smiled while twisting his beard. At this time, he no longer cared about maintaining his majesty as a prime minister.
"Is there a third..."
Jiang Wan pointed to the south side, and then pointed to the north side, "The policy of moving the people from South China to Hanzhong has not waited for the imperial court to make a move. I am afraid that this militia group will help the imperial court to complete half of it. Wheat flour made Dry food, but the credit is indispensable!"
Zhuge Liangliang nodded and said, "Not bad."
As he spoke, he sighed again, "Last year, Hanzhong's military rations were insufficient, and I was so worried that I couldn't sleep at night! But it's only been a year, and I suddenly got so much food, I still can't sleep at night. ..."
"Why?"
Jiang Wan asked curiously.
Zhuge Liang pointed to the scene in front of him, "I'm afraid it's like a dream, and it will disappear when I close my eyes and open them again, so don't I have to stand here and watch all the time?"
"Hahaha……"
The two looked at each other and laughed.
"Son Feng Yong, it's really not easy!"
After Jiang Wan laughed, he sighed, "Even Wan admires him a little bit. It's lucky that the Han Dynasty has him!"
Zhuge nodded, "After he has been honed in the future, he will be more prudent and become a great farmer. No one will be able to pick a thorn in his side."
Da Si Nong, one of the nine ministers, with two thousand stones in the middle, is in charge of money, grain, gold, silk and other currencies, and manages the affairs of the country's farming.
Jiang Wan exclaimed, with the prime minister's prudent, impartial and strict temperament, he was able to say such words mixed with personal feelings, and he really valued Feng Yong a lot.
It can even be said that if the prime minister can wait until the day when Feng Yong is truly "stable", then this position must belong to him.
"Congratulations to Prime Minister Wan for recruiting another talented person for the Han Dynasty!"
Jiang Wan cupped his hands in congratulations.
"It's just too early to say this now!"
As soon as Zhuge Liang mentioned this topic, and then thought of a certain slippery boy, his face darkened slightly, and he felt a little depressed.
Some people love money, some people like fame, some people are lustful, but all people have their own advantages.
But this kid, despite his young age, has always been unpredictable.
Don't love money, just like to spread it.
Even if it's a million dollars, it's not something ordinary people can do if they say they can give it away.
The newly released dry rations can now be regarded as a considerable income for the imperial court.
And the method of dry food, isn't it what he offered?
Besides, the large amount of chickens needed for the dry food can only be obtained by his skill of wishing chickens.
Guanzhang and other companies, because of this, can be regarded as making a lot of money.
As for reputation, let alone.
I even gave him the name of a young hero, but he refused to work in my prime minister's mansion, it's too much!
The only thing that is possible at the moment is beauty.
But the beautiful girl from the sixth bedroom of the Li family was delivered to the door, and he didn't eat it?
At his age, when he is just young and unable to control himself, it is rare to be able to control himself in front of such a beauty as Li Mu.
Even for those who are lustful but not seduced by beauty, lust is not considered a weakness.
But fortunately, my Xijun asked Guan Ji to go to Hanzhong with him.
It seems that marrying Xijun is still very important.
Well, there is also the young lady of the Zhang family...
Zhuge Liang secretly cursed, if this kid is like this old man again in the future, I can't tell how the old man will let you have a second daughter to fight for husband, if he can't catch you, can't he still torment you? In the end, the old man will brew it again, can't he still hold you in his hands?
