Chapter 18: Borrowing Food for the Wine Banquet

When he came to the county office, Li Hui handed over to Nagong Sun Zhao.

Gongsun Zhao said, "My lord's current situation in Xiangping is like this, if there is nothing to do, I will retire in the next place."

"Okay, there is Lord Lao Gongsun, if you don't understand, Huiyi will visit the door when the time comes."

"Okay, I'm waiting for the arrival of adults at any time at home." After speaking, he left the palace.

After he left, Li Huiyi said to Chen Gong, "Gongtai does not have much grain in the treasury now, and the displaced people have reached as much as 70,000 or 80,000 after we have collected all the way, how is this good?"

"At present, we have arranged the residence of the displaced people first, and the riots of the displaced people have been avoided, and what Gongsun Zhao said is not detailed, and I will count it later."

"Gongtai, the displaced people can be scattered and arranged in sparsely populated villages, and tomorrow the government treasury will be counted and distributed with grain, which should be stable."

"Okay, I'll leave the arrangements for the displaced people to Huiyi, and I'll go and count the treasury." After speaking, Chen Gong walked towards the treasury.

Li Huiyi looked at everyone and said, "Juan Nizi, you and your grandfather will sort out the room in the mansion, and Brother Gao will go with me to arrange the homeless."

After saying that, the three of us came to the place of the displaced people, Li Huiyi said loudly, "Folks, now that we have come to Xiangping, it may be difficult to arrange accommodation for everyone, but after this period of time, we will be the happiest."

The exile replied, "We are not afraid, we believe in the Xiangping Order, and although the Lord arranges it, we have no complaints."

I thought in my heart that these were all good people of the Han Dynasty, as long as there was a way to live, they would believe to the death, but now the court is really invisible.

When I sighed, I saw Guan Hai sneaking to his side and said, "My lord is so busy now, what do you need to arrange, see if there is anything you can help?"

Li Hui replied: "Later, you will lead a team to set out from the south, and when you see a sparsely populated village, you will arrange for some people to stay, and inform them to come to the county government tomorrow to receive food."

"Okay, my lord, I'll wait for you to arrange it for me." Guan Hai scratched his head and said.

Li Huiyi continued, "Everyone is divided into four teams now, and we will lead everyone to arrange accommodation." After Li Huiyi finished speaking, he saw that the homeless people were looking for a team by themselves.

Li Huiyi turned back to Zhang He and Gao Shun and said, "Brother Gao, Brother Gao, etc., you will each lead a team to set off from the east and west, see the sparsely populated villages and arrange them on the spot, and tell them to come to the government tomorrow to receive food."

Zhang He Gaoshun replied, "Okay, it will definitely be done." ”

Seeing that the team was already in order, Li Huiyi said, "Now everyone is keeping up with the departure." ”

After speaking, Guan Hai, Gao Shun, and Zhang He each led the team away.

Li Huiyi set off to the north with the rest, and after a day of hard work, he finally arranged for the displaced people.

Li Huiyi returned to the mansion late at night and saw that Gao Shun and the others had returned, they were also exhausted, but they were still waiting, and they felt warm in their hearts.

Li Huiyi stepped forward and said, "Everyone hasn't rested yet, let's go back and rest early when everyone is tired today."

Juan Nizi said, "Juan'er has sorted out several rooms, everyone come with Juan'er"! After that, I took everyone and went

Li Huiyi sat there and thought, the idea is really beautiful, but he is tired of doing it, and he doesn't want to move.

About half an hour later, Chen Gong came, and Li Huiyi said, "Mr. is not sleeping yet, Huiyi is ready to sleep."

"Huiyi, I can't sleep, I'm here to discuss with Huiyi."

"What's the matter, sir, that makes him so anxious"?

"The grain in the Huiyi Mansion Treasury is only about 150,000 stones, which is only enough for the displaced people for half a month, and if you save food, you can still last for a month, and you can't wait for a bumper harvest next year"?

"Sir, don't worry, Huiyi will find a way."

After speaking, the two of them fell into deep thought, and after a while, Li Huiyi said, "Can Gongtai borrow grain from the family?"

Chen Gong thought for a while and said, "Yes, let's find out tomorrow."

"It's good to trouble Mr. in this matter, Mr. Rest early, there will be something to deal with tomorrow."

"Okay, Huiyi should rest early."

Early the next morning, Li Huiyi came to the storehouse, and the officials moved the grain out early, ready to wait for the displaced people to come and receive the grain.

Chen Gong recorded and made a book next to him, Gao Shun and Zhang He distributed food, Guan Hai led the government soldiers to maintain law and order, and the more time passed, the more people came after.

Li Huiyi advertised next to him and said, "There are only 10 days of rations distributed today, and I hope everyone will insist that those who have no food after 10 days can come to receive food." Now recruit the strong to enlist in the army, if you are interested in three days later can come to the government to register, good men will be to protect the family and defend the country, in order to seek fame and fortune, glory to the ancestors, I hope everyone will go back to tell the villagers to each other."

After a tiring day, everyone didn't want to say anything when they went back, and went straight back to sleep.

After two days of rest, Li Huiyi summoned everyone to the government to discuss matters. Seeing that the people had arrived, Li Huiyi said, "Now it has basically stabilized, so at present, the main thing is to calm the hearts of the people, and the hearts of the displaced people have been subdued, but the local people are not at home, I don't know what good way everyone has"?

Chen Gong said, "Relax policies, reduce taxes, maintain law and order, and the people will naturally return to their hearts."

"Okay, tomorrow Huiyi will issue an announcement, and the people's tax will only be collected by one percent."

"If Huiyi does this, the government treasury will have no grain to store, and I am afraid it will not last long"?

Gao Shun also came out and said, "Yes, Huiyi still has to recruit troops, so what is the food to feed you?"

Li Huiyi said, "Mountain people have their own seconds, let's wait and see."

If you have anything else to say, I'll plan it together today.

Guan Hai said, "When I got along with those government soldiers, I found that there were many people who cheated and cheated, and did not abide by military discipline."

"Okay, Guan Hai is now appointed as the military commander, commanding the government soldiers, going to the dross, and keeping the essence."

Guan Hai never dreamed that he would be appointed as a military commander by being a bandit. So he knelt down excitedly and said, "Thank you to the lord, my subordinates are willing to saddle the horse and back for the lord, and smear the liver and brain."

Li Huiyi stepped forward to help him up and said, "Guan Sima will do more things for the people in the future."

"Yes, my subordinates obey."

"Brother Gao, Brother Zhang, do you have any good opinions?"

Seeing that no one spoke, Li Huiyi continued, "Since there is nothing to do, I now appoint Zhang He as the military commander to command the newly recruited troops tomorrow." Gao Shun is the military Sima, and he will extract martial artists from tomorrow's new recruits to form a guard. Mr. Gongtai is the military advisor in charge of Xiangping's big and small affairs."

Chen Gong said, "Thank you Huiyi, the old man will go all out."

Gao Shun knelt down and said, "Thank you lord, the last general will follow to the death."

Zhang He clenched his fists and said, "Thank you general, you will try your best to build an iron-blooded army for the general."

"Okay, with you waiting, big things can be done, the rest of the people go down to prepare, and Mr. Gongtai stays."

After everyone left, Li Huiyi said to the public platform, "Is there any eyebrows about Mr. borrowing grain?"

"Xiangping now has three major families, a branch of the Wang family in Taiyuan County, a branch of the Yuan family in Ruyang, Runan, and a branch of the Zhongshan Wuji Zhen family.

"Then Huiyi will hold a banquet tonight, and invite them to come at that time, is it feasible to borrow grain?"

"Huiyi can do this method, just do it, the old man will go down first to prepare the banquet."

"Okay, there's Mr. Law."

Sending Chen Gong away, Li Huiyi remembered that when he was appointed just now, Zhang He and Chen Gong were now in a wait-and-see state, and Guan Hai Gaoshun had already been subdued, and it seemed that there were still a few big things to do in order to subdue their hearts.

Li Huiyi found Guan Hai and said to him, "Send a few people to inform the Yuan family, the Wang family, the Zhen family, and the small families, and say that they are going to have a banquet tonight, and I hope they will come."

"Okay, don't worry, my lord, I guarantee that they will come tonight."

"Okay, go ahead".

At night, the backyard of the government is very lively, and Guan Hai welcomes guests at the door.

The small family arrived early, and now there are only three families left.

"When the Zhen family arrives, the gift will be accompanied by a pair of gems and jade pendants."

"When the Yuan family arrives, the gift will follow two thousand dollars."

"When the Wang family arrives, the gift will follow a thousand dollars."

The three families arrived, the guests took their seats, and the banquet began.

"I'm waiting to congratulate Xiangping Ling, take office, and ask Xiangping Ling to take care of me in the future."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, come and eat what everyone should eat and drink."

After three rounds of drinking, Li Huiyi stood up and said, "Everyone, Huiyi has just taken office in Xiangping, and I have encountered a little trouble, I hope you can help."

Zhang Shijia echoed and said, "Xiangping Ling is polite, if there is anything to say, as long as we can do it, we will definitely help."

"Okay, let's have a drink, it's actually not a big deal, I just want everyone here to lend me some food, I don't know if everyone is willing to help?"

I saw the people below whispering, and after a while, the head of the Wang family came out and said, "If you don't hide the Xiangping order, I don't have much surplus food at home, I'm really embarrassed."

Lee Hye-yi asked, "Then I don't know how much I can borrow?"

The head of the Wang family said, "Since the Xiangping Order is really difficult, I can't wait but to borrow it, and my Wang family is willing to give 500 stones to the adults for free."

"Good! Good! I wonder if everyone here is the same"?

The Yuan family said, "I am willing to send Xiangping Ling 2,000 stones,"

The rest of the small families echoed and spoke.

"I'm willing to give fifty stones."

"I'm willing to give a hundred stone ......."

Li Huiyi looked at these families below and sneered, "You are all good people of the Han Dynasty, Huiyi hereby thanks you for coming to make a book and record it in the party"?

The family humlessly echoed, "Thank you Xiangping Ling, this is what I should do."

"I wonder when you will bring the food?"

The Wang family and the Yuan family came out and said, "I will arrive tomorrow, and I won't delay the affairs of adults."

"Okay, then Huiyi will thank you, and today's banquet is over." After speaking, Li Huiyi returned to his residence angrily.

"The Wang family and the Yuan family deceive people too much, I don't take revenge and swear not to be a person."

After a while, Chen Gong arrived, saw the smashed things on the ground and said, "Huiyi, don't be so angry, it's not for them to be happy when you're angry."

"Gongtai, Huiyi can't bear this breath, a Wang family has five hundred stones, that's not when Huiyi asks for food."

"Huiyi is angry, there is no way, but you will be happy to see this list." Chen Gong said happily.

"Oh, what a good thing, to make the gentleman so happy, bring it to me".

I only saw that the booklet said that the Zhen family donated 500,000 stones.

"Okay, Mr. Zhen is really a savior of Huiyi."

"Now it's off."

"Sir, I thought that the Zhen family could donate 500,000 stones, but the other two would not"? Li Huiyi said with a dark face.

"Huiyi, but you have to think clearly, if you move the family, if you don't handle it properly, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble, saying that we just came to Xiangping, and the foundation is not stable."

"Sir, rest early, Huiyi think about this matter"

"I hope Huiyi will think twice." Chen Gong left the room after speaking.

What the public station said made sense, but Li Huiyi really couldn't bear it, and after thinking about it, he finally thought of a good way, then let them live happily for a few more days.
