Chapter 738 Countermeasures
Although she is not afraid, with the martial arts of the man in black tonight, even if there are a few more she can easily deal with it, but this does not mean that Yang Lan'er doesn't care. Yang Lan'er also dared to chop her hands with a knife.
Originally, I wanted to play with cats and mice for a few more days, so that they could enjoy themselves for a few more days, but it was a pity that she fed the dog out of good intentions, and it was all in vain!
Since they don't appreciate it, Yang Lan'er doesn't want to spend any more time. People on the border of Pengcheng are struggling to make ends meet in this cold winter, so she won't come here in vain. Let the people of Pengcheng have a carnival in these few days!
At the beginning of the next day, the sky was twilight.
Not long after the city gates were opened, many ragged commoners poured into the four city gates. Because the activity of donating porridge to the disaster led by the general's wife had not yet ended in the north of the city, the guards guarding the city gates were helpless. One person blocked.
Respondents from nearby natural villages were able to enter the city smoothly.
Pengcheng county magistrate has been suffering during this period of time, living in dire straits!
Since last year's cold winter came and the blizzard raged, he has been living in fear and sleepless nights.
Worrying that the people have no clothes to cover their bodies, no food to cover their stomachs, no tiles to cover their heads, and no grains in their warehouses to satisfy their hunger, mourning is everywhere inside and outside Pengcheng.
And I am afraid that the disaster will be unstoppable, and I am worried that my official career will stop here!
My whole heart is like being thrown into a frying pan—I'm so anxious!
Later, it was hard work, and the general’s wife took the lead in raising donations, and Mrs. Tan relics gave out cheap food for the people. These two measures temporarily pacified people’s hearts. But I don't know which **** thing is against me, and I set fire to the parity granary, and burned it all!
This is not cruel enough, but it actually encourages the common people to gather and make trouble!
The county magistrate Cheng walked up and down irritablely, muttering in his mouth: "This is someone who deliberately doesn't want me to have a good time! I just heard the good news that we have raided the barbarian tribe by surprise and seized a lot of supplies such as cattle, sheep and horses. How big a batch of supplies is this, not only can it inspire people, but also how many people can it feed? They can return to the city within a few days after the news comes, but within a few days..."
County magistrate Cheng stopped in front of the master and propped his hands on the table. He was very angry at the people behind the scenes: "How many days? Can't Xipi's mother be more peaceful and let these days pass smoothly?"
"Cough cough cough" the master quickly picked up a copy of the Daying Law and blocked it in front of him, leaned back as far as possible to avoid the saliva from the county magistrate's mouth, and calmly reminded: "My lord, your quality, image, Self-cultivation does not allow you to act recklessly, not to mention the mantra of General Qi that you have always looked down upon, it is best not to say the three words Niangxipi from your mouth!"
"I" blurted out in anger!
Master didn't wait for County Magistrate Cheng to finish speaking and interrupted: "Even if it comes from your mouth, it's better not to let General Qi's people hear it!"
Be careful to let General Qi give you a bad meal!
"You" forget it, and Magistrate Cheng is discouraged. General Qi is not comparable to his seven-rank sesame.
"My lord, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain. There are always more solutions than difficulties. You are too impatient!" The master comforted the county magistrate while calling for him to sit down. bit.
The master finally returned the Daying law that was in front of his face to its original position with confidence.
Hearing this, the county magistrate of Cheng was so angry that he almost didn't pat the tea table. He pointed at the master and asked loudly: "Huh? There are more solutions than difficulties, so come and tell my lord, how to solve this predicament today?"
Speaking of this, without waiting for the master to reply, Cheng County magistrate stared: "Is it better to control violence with violence or to control violence with violence?"
The two have formed a tacit understanding as partners for many years, but at this moment, the two are sitting on each side, but their aura is very different.
One side is impatient and the other side is indifferent.
The master sat calmly on the armchair and habitually wanted to take a sip of tea to moisten his throat, but when he touched his lips, he found that the tea was already cold, so he asked the servant to change to a new cup of hot tea, took a sip, put down the tea cup, and lifted his clothes When Cheng county magistrate was about to run out of patience, the master chuckled lightly, and then spit out eight words without any haste: "Govern by doing nothing, let nature take its course."
"Govern by doing nothing, let nature take its course?" Cheng County magistrate expressed doubts about the master's words, and he was uncomfortable with the anger nestled in his chest. He pointed to the door: "Let it develop, let the situation worsen? Let those common people Burning, killing and looting?"
Facing the resentment from the county magistrate, the master nodded without changing his expression. The lord is smart, and he guessed right, that's it!
County magistrate Cheng pointed at the official hat on his head, and smiled angrily: "Old boy, have you thought about the black gauze hat on my head?"
Under the severe situation of shortage of food and supplies at the border, if the granary is robbed again and the rear is unstable, the county magistrate Cheng feels that there is no need to report to the emperor, and the commander of the northern border, General Qin, will not let him go, maybe he will be angry The next step directly clicked the head on his neck!
It is possible to cut first and play later!
Master Cheng was not angry at the magistrate Cheng's yelling as an old boy. He stroked his gray beard and asked an irrelevant question: "My lord, how many years have you been here?"
Mentioning this, Cheng County magistrate gritted his teeth: "More than five years, almost six years!"
He hasn't moved his position for five or six years, his official position is really as stable as a rock!
"It's been so long?" The master smiled and said, "Time flies like an arrow, and before you know it, my lord, you have become six years older again."
"Old boy."
"Oh!" The master was stunned, raised a palm and flipped it over and over again, jokingly said: "It's not just my lord, your face is exposed to the scorching sun and cold wind in the northern border, it should double in five years, that is, ten years! If it doubles in six years, that's a dozen!"
After finishing speaking, he put on an exaggerated expression of fear and clapped his hands on his chest.
Is it that old? so obvious? Cheng County magistrate didn't care to criticize, and didn't find that the problem was misleading. He stared at the master with suspicious eyes, but he couldn't help stroking his cheek with his hands. It was a bit uneven, and it was rough enough. Could it be that he is really old? More than ten years old?
The truth is inexplicably sad!
Seeing that the county magistrate was downcast and depressed, he no longer roared from the east of the river, his ears were finally quiet, and he returned to the previous question: "Five or six years is not short, my lord, during this period, do you know or not?" I heard that there are these five granaries in the city?"
"I haven't heard of it, let alone know!" County magistrate Cheng patted the top of his head.
"I haven't heard of it either." The master sat upright, "In this small border city, there are five large granaries hidden in the small city, which are big enough to ensure that the entire border city can feed for five years. long, and"
The master paused here for a moment, and took another sip of the tea. The tea was cold again, which made him dissatisfied. He frowned and continued: "Besides, you don't even know that you are a local parent official."
"I was negligent!"
