Silver Overlord Chapter 603: On the way
Yan Liqiang lay lazily on the car, closed his eyes, tried not to think of anything, and felt the rolling sound of wheels turning and the slight bumpy feeling on the road. A trace of raft was spitting out of the copper incense burner in the car. The scent of the car is scorching outside, and the freezer that stores ice cubes in the car makes the temperature in the car a few degrees lower than the outside and feels very comfortable.
Before becoming an official, I felt that being an official was prestige, but after the real power was swayed, Yan Liqiang discovered that in fact, being an official is not as easy and as good as he imagined, especially for someone as responsible as he is. Speaking of it, it is easy to eat and drink spicy Jiu Chi Rou Lin before and after, but he has no way to live comfortably in those days, so he can only gritt his teeth and carry the burden on his shoulder, even if he is tired, even bitter, even bored You can only hold it. Sitting in this position, you are someone else's dependence, and you are no longer dependent!
There is no other way but to strengthen yourself.
Like at this moment, even if Yan Liqiang wanted to be quiet, Qian Su and Lu Wenbin, who were also sitting in the car with him, still kept Yan Liqiang with his eyes closed at this time also having to deal with official duties.
After the carriage left Pingxi City, Qian Su first reported a full half-hour of official business, talking about the current fiscal revenue and expenditure of Qiyun County, and then it was Lu Wenbin’s turn to speak for half an hour The situation of the construction of the people gathering area was completed by two people. It took more than an hour to pass, and the four-wheeled carriage where the three people were on the official road was accompanied by the accompanying 500 cavalry guards. There are dozens of kilometers out.
During this process, Yan Liqiang kept his eyes closed and did not say anything. Qian Su and Lu Wenbin also knew that Yan Liqiang was tired in the government office of the Governor’s House these days, so the two of them were not surprised...
"The latest court mansion was just sent to Duhu Mansion this morning. I read it. The mansion said that Zhuzhou was really drought in July. Although August has not passed yet, it seems that the drought is still there. It will intensify further. The drought in Zhuzhou has settled in August. Since March, there has been no rain in many places in Zhuzhou. The Zhuhe River has almost dried up, and the surface of Pinglan Lake has shrunk by almost half, except for the large In addition to the drought, Zhuzhou was also affected by locusts this year. The Di newspaper said that there are thousands of miles of land in Zhuzhou. This year, the grains may not be harvested. The locusts are covering the sky and the grass is not there. The disaster victims in Zhuzhou have begun to flee in July By the way, the imperial court was already looking for ways to mobilize money, grain and relief ... "
Qian Su was talking about the news of the drought in Zhuzhou, while observing Yan Liqiang ’s face. Although the news was published in the court ’s mansion, the position of the news was not conspicuous, but Qian Su knew that this was not a Ordinary news, in fact, this news affects the hearts of hundreds of millions of people in the Han Dynasty. The impact of this news can be one hundred times more serious than the drought in Zhuzhou ...
—— Liuzhou Tengu Food Day in May 16th of the Yuan Dynasty of the Han Dynasty ......
—— In the August 16th year of the Yuan Dynasty of the Han Dynasty, the drought in Zhuzhou ...
Tengu food day in Liuzhou has happened, but there will still be lucky people in Gyeonggi, and the news of the drought in Zhuzhou this time completely smashed the last line of defense in the hearts of those lucky people!
Everything in this Han Empire, the stone turtle's back has already been predicted, and it is still in the land of Gyeonggi. By this time next year, it will really only be dead.
As expected by Qian Su, Yan Liqiang, who had been closing his eyes and taking a break before, finally opened his eyes and sighed when he heard the news about the drought in Zhuzhou in Di Bao. He opened his mouth, "Is there any news coming from Dijing City?"
The news of the Emperor Jingcheng is of course not written in the Di Bao, but there are also sources of the Emperor Jingcheng in the Duhu Mansion. The Ganzhou Guild Hall and the monthly source of the Emperor Jingcheng transport the wool products of the world ’s first factory. The caravan will bring back the first-hand news of the Imperial City.
"Emperor Jingcheng was a bit chaotic last month, because the emperor of the emperor Jingcheng and many dignitaries paid attention to the news of Zhuzhou. It does not need to wait until the Di newspaper is sent out, but the Zhuzhou side is almost daily. It was reported to the emperor capital that just last month, many eminent families in the emperor capital had begun to evacuate from the emperor capital in large numbers, and there were luxury mansions and courtyards sold throughout the entire emperor capital. The entire emperor capital was now panicked. Everyone is thinking of a way, the house in the entire Imperial City is now completely unsellable ... "
"Those who are high-ranking officials and nobles have a back road no matter where they go. It's just a place in Gyeonggi Province, and there are many people. There can be evacuation strategies in the court's residence report!" Yan Liqiang asked.
"There is a sentence in the Di Bao, saying that Sun Bingchen advocated that all states and counties in the empire should accept the people who fled in the place of Gyeonggi according to their distance and proportion. The target of 200,000 people is just that Sun Bingchen ’s proposal is good, but it is definitely not difficult to do it really. This is not an evacuation of 180,000, but a tens of millions of people. Hemp, so many people have to flee, where the court can order it with the next order. When so many people move, not to mention the land of Gyeonggi, the situation in several states close to the land of Gyeonggi may be chaotic ... … "
Yan Liqiang also sighed in his heart, he also expected this situation, but compared to letting so many people die silently without any resistance and struggle under next year's sky-tribulation, Yan Liqiang felt that no matter How about letting them know that Heavenly Tribulation is coming, and then relying on their own skills, it is better to leave Emperor Beijing City and make a living. Although the latter may also bring a lot of confusion to the place, there is one thing, at least it will not die so much. people.
"Is there any news about Bailianism in the Di Bao?"
This white lotus is what Yan Liqiang is most worried about at the moment. Due to the urinary nature of white lotus, Yan Liqiang feels that if the white lotus does not make some moths at this time, it is simply unreasonable.
Qian Su shook his head, "There is no news of the White Lotus in the Di newspaper. It ’s just that I heard that the White Lotus in various places of the Han dynasty disappeared in the past few months. In the place where the trouble is so great, Bailianjiao has no news at all. I do n’t know what ghost Bailianjiao is doing! "
Yan Liqiang's brow furrowed suddenly. At this time, the news that there is no Bailianism may be the worst news.
"Uncle Qian, we will prepare for Qiyun County. This time there must be many people fleeing from the place of Gyeonggi. Although Qiyun County is thousands of miles away from Gyeonggi, we can also contribute a lot. The talents of Gyeonggi are gathered. I see You can send people to Gyeonggi to recruit a group of talents. Craftsmen have priority. Others who have skills or unique skills and skills, warriors and literati can also come. As long as they are willing to come alone, we can do it here. Give him a family and a place to settle down. Uncle Qian, please find someone to sum up to see what talents we still lack here, how many people can be settled, and wait for the train to return from Yingwei County ... "
"Li Qiang, your idea is good, but it will cost a lot of money to do this, and now there is not much money in the Governor's House, I am afraid ..."
"Do n’t worry about money, Uncle Qian, we have 300,000 silver in our Yan family. Uncle Qian, just take it and spend it!"
"If you have money, it ’s easy to do ~ IndoMTL.com ~ If the money is really going to be used to settle people, I think at least 10,000 people can be placed, which means that the cost on the road is a bit big. When you come to Pingxi County, you can naturally find money-making jobs, and it ’s not a problem to support your family. Li Qiang, you are kind ... "
"Ask for peace of mind!" Yan Liqiang said with a sigh. "That ’s right, have I made the machines studied by the craftsmen over the manufacturing bureau?"
"The air hammer you said has been studied for a few days, and has some eyebrows, but the mint machine you said is a bit more difficult. Even if you draw the drawings, the craftsmen are still pondering, I am afraid that It will take some time ... "Qian Su is puzzled when it comes to this." The craftsmen of the hammer are still easy to understand. It's just that Li Qiang doesn't know what the mint machine you are doing ... "
Yan Li scratched his head. "The coin miner can divide the gold and silver into small pieces of equal weight ..."
"Now gold and silver can also be used, why must it be divided into small pieces, and a special machine is needed?" Qian Su puzzled.
Yan Liqiang did n’t know how to explain to Qian Su, because casting pieces of gold and silver into currency, in many ways, was of great significance across time, but the people of the Han Empire did n’t understand it ... …
