Chapter 31: Leaving Home (Part II)

Hou Yi slapped a couple of sycophants, and said to Han Gang: "But these homeless people are in a hurry to go to Tokyo City, do you want to stop them?" None of these homeless people have a place to stay, and it is not difficult to stop them. ”

At this time, people are not free to move around their homes. Monks and Taoists rely on degrees, officials rely on post tickets, and the people rely on passes. The passing place is the road, the road guide, which is equivalent to the ID card of later generations, letters of introduction and other things. It's just a small piece of paper, but it's related to whether the traveler has a legal identity.

And Hou Yi was right, the displaced people could not have a place, and when they left the village, they would never remember to go to the county government to pay for a pass, and there was a good reason to detain them for the law.

But Han Gang disagreed: "This matter is not appropriate. The displaced people must be allowed to stay voluntarily, otherwise they will be realized. He smiled at Hou Yi, "Anyway, they can't leave Baima County today, so they will send people to recruit hired workers now, presumably they also want to find a job to support their families as soon as possible." ”

Han Gang denied his opinion, and Hou Yi's attitude was still respectful, "Xia Guan understands, let's do it." ”

Han Gang nodded, and his waist bent slightly: "I'm tired." ”

"Don't dare, it's an internal affair of the lower officials."

Hou Yi saluted and retreated. Han Gang was accustomed to his respect, and now when Ran Jue, who was outside inspecting the township, saw him, he was also 100% respectful. It's not just a matter of official position, it's also the gap between Jinshi and non-Jinshi. In other words, if it is a Jinshi to be a subordinate in the county, he will never be as honest as Hou Yi and Ran Jue now.

The world is heavy, and officials from Jinshi are dressed in green robes as soon as they enter the ranks, which are one head higher than their peers, and the speed of promotion is far higher. Officials who are not from Jinshi, even if they are a little proud in front of Jinshi, they have to rely on their talents, but Hou Yi and Ran Jue have no confidence to be proud in front of Han Gang.

After Hou Yi left, there was silence in the hall, and after a while, Wei Pingzhen sighed: "It's finally here." ”

Han Gang also sighed lightly: "...... It's coming. After the sigh, his eyes became sharp, and he said in a deep voice: "It's finally here!" ”

"Rightly." Wei Pingzhen waved to Han Gang and took the initiative to say: "Go down and check the money and grain in the treasury again, and don't worry about it if you don't look at it anymore." ”

Han Gang nodded, Wei Ping was really old in the affairs of the Yazhong, and he thought about it more thoroughly than himself. His gaze turned to Fang Xing, what Han Gang was going to say, Fang Xing understood. Without waiting for instructions, he said: "I'll help Hou Xiancheng, and I'll also go to see the group of homeless people by the way." ”

"Please." Han Gang arched his hand, got up and watched them go out.

Turning around, he looked at the last of his staff. This Fujian scholar, although young, manages the dozens of scholars in Baima County properly and deserves the word outstanding.

"Although we are now hit by a catastrophe, we must not let go of our studies. In the next few months, I will try to find time to go to the county school, but the rest will depend on you to worry a lot. "The level of the subordinate is also an aspect of the performance evaluation, and Han Gang does not want to lose face in this regard, "When the county school recommends Juzi to take the Taixue Waishe exam this year, I hope they can all enter high school!" ”

"I understand it below, and I can rest assured." You mellow clenched his fists and said loudly.

The three staff members each had their own things to do, and after they left one after another, Han Gang was the only one left in the public hall. His fingers habitually tapped on the armrest of the chair, and Han Gang fell into deep thought.

Since Yedu can be passed, then Guandu will definitely be navigable. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, the town of Baimadu should report and apply for the opening of the ferry - it is also possible to worry about the problem of the homeless, and if it is delayed for a while, I can't let them do it. But in any case, the next few months will inevitably be the most difficult time. I don't know how much support I can give him in the Lu Dao court-it would be great if I could have determined my authority earlier.

After a trip to Hebei, presumably Lu Huiqing and Zeng Bu will no longer have any illusions. It's about supporting your work wholeheartedly. There is their advice. Convincing the Son of Heaven would not be so difficult.

Yesterday, Zeng Lu and his wife hurriedly returned to Tokyo from Hebei through Baima County. Although they didn't say much at the more simple reception banquet than the previous one, just looking at their unconcealable melancholy, the overall situation of the two roads in Hebei must be very bad, and it was more real than Hangang seeing it across the Yellow River. I don't know how they will report to the Son of Heaven after they return to the capital. Whether it is truthful, or crooked, or disguised.

The mood of the two changed, and Han Gang felt that in a short period of time, there was no need to worry about what would happen to them. The struggle for power is a struggle for power, but with the current situation in Hebei, if one is not good, maybe the entire new party will be finished. And the appearance of the old party starting to gear up can almost be seen. The pressure on the outside has increased, and the inside has to be united. At this time, we must first solve the trouble in front of us.

Who can they rely on?

If you only look at Baima County, the situation is actually quite good, the water is also available, the spring wheat has been planted, the locusts are being cleaned up, and the places for the displaced people are complete. In the eyes of the people of Baima County, their luck is still very good, and they have a young and promising magistrate. And the situation in Baima County falls in the eyes of the Son of Heaven and the court, and it can also be understood that if you want to prevent the displaced people from bothering the capital-

- The easiest way is to find him Han Gang.

got up and returned to the backyard, and Han Yunniang greeted her with a maid.

"Third brother, I'm back."

Han Gang looked inward, strange that only Yun Niang greeted him, "What about your sister?" ”

Yun Niang helped Han Gang change out of his clothes, "Sister Yi is happy again, Sister Su Xin went to the kitchen, saying that she wanted to stew some supplements, and Sister Nan went to take care of Jin Niang and Kuiguan." ”

"Why are you happy again?" Han Gang shook his head.

Since Wang Yi found out that she was pregnant, she was very happy, and she vomited after eating a little bit these days, which is really worrying.

After changing into the wide robe he wore at home, Han Gang went to Wang Yi's room.

Wang Yi had just vomited at this time, his face was slightly pale, his hair was a little messy, and he looked a lot haggard. Yan Suxin was carrying a cup of stewed soup in the room, and wanted to serve Wang Yi to drink. Hearing Han Gang's recent movements, the two girls looked at it together.

"Official!" Su Xin bent his knees as a salute.

"It's been busy again." Wang Yi propped himself up with his arms, "You have to take care of your body too!" ”

"It's fine." Han Gang sat down and brought the soup cup in Yan Suxin's hand, "Everything is foreseen, and if you don't prepare, you will be wasted." Work hard now, and it will be easier later. ”

When the soup cup was opened, a fresh aroma of chicken soup with a medicinal smell dispersed, and Han Gang looked inside, and the chicken with bones removed was scattered in the white porridge, but there was not a single piece of medicinal herbs in sight. Yan Suxin boiled the soup, all of which were filled with chopped medicinal materials in a small cloth bag, and stewed together in the soup pot. The warm heat was smoking, and after getting familiar with the taste, Han Gang could still smell that angelica, astragalus, and codonopsis were used in the chicken soup.

Han Gang doesn't like luxury, and Wang Yi has been simple since he was a child. And in the past few months, I have heard about the disaster outside, and I have seen Han Gang's busyness, and the food and clothing at home have become more simple - of course, cotton quilts are another story, and their own production is free of cost - but after Wang Yi became pregnant, she, a pregnant woman, received the most care and ate the best.

Han Gang scooped up a spoonful of porridge with a soup spoon, blew it, and handed it to Wang Yi's mouth. With Han Gang to feed, Wang Yi obediently ate it. Spoonful by spoonful, the chicken soup and medicinal porridge she ate in her stomach ironed her heart.

After eating, Wang Yi wiped his mouth with a silk scarf, his face was a little red, and he didn't dare to look at Han Gang. But asked, "How is the second brother?" ”

Han Gang said with a smile: "Zhong Yuan is getting more and more powerful, there is no problem with the things he takes care of, and with him staring, the people below are working harder than the other." ”

Hearing that his second brother can do things, and he is doing very well, Wang Yi was overjoyed, but he was a little worried: "Don't let the second brother be too tired." ”

"Let him have a Taichang Temple Taizhu to help, to be honest, some can't afford it."

Wang Yi pursed his lips and glanced at Han Gang, knowing that he was joking, and said angrily: "Only play with his mouth!" ”

Han Gang smiled heartily and helped Wang Yi, so that Wang Yi was in a better mood, which he was happy to see. It can be seen from the king's side that it is better for people to be busy.

The next tens of thousands, almost 100,000 displaced people, must also be given something to do, and they must not just be kept in the camp camps. Even if it is just the empty energy of digging the mound, it is better than raising it in a porridge shed every day. Wang Bi is the best example, he used to stay at home, watching his father and brother deal with national affairs, and he didn't achieve anything, so he had psychological problems. Now some of them are busy, although it is only a small thing, but after a while, it is like a different person.

How exactly do you arrange this workforce? Is it to rebuild the Yellow River embankment, or to renovate the official road? Han Gang involuntarily tapped his fingers again.

Seeing that Han Gang had fallen into his own world realm again, Wang Yi and Yan Suxin both sighed. But faintly there is a bit of pride, what woman in the world doesn't want her husband to be a man who stands up to the sky, a sage who saves the people from fire and water by virtue of benevolence and benevolence? Isn't that exactly what Han Gang is doing?

Three days later, the ice could not be seen in the rolling waves of the Yellow River. After preparing for a long time, it was finally time for the official opening, and Han Gang came to Baimadu. Previously, there were as many as 1,000 displaced people who crossed the river through the wilderness, but after so many preparations, they were resettled without much effort.

With a loud shout, the ferry finally left the dock after four months of stagnation, while at the same time, there were several ferries on the other side of Liyangjin offshore.

The homeless people have finally arrived......
