After running in Huai'an City, the night breeze was blowing, and his whole body was cool, and Liu Konghe gradually calmed down a little. Read the full text of the latest chapter. For more up-to-date chapters, visit: щ.

At this moment, he has entered the most prosperous area in Huai'an City, and there is still a street away from "Leaning on the Red Mansion" where Liu 'Chun' and Hao Xiaoren played. It is said that during the siege, the whole city had a curfew at night. Even in peaceful years, the 'gates' of the city must be closed as soon as they enter the night, and the people must go home. When the time came, the houses had to extinguish the candles and control the lights, and there were soldiers and officials patrolling the streets. If you don't return home at this time and wander outside, don't talk nonsense, just arrest and throw yourself in prison, and wait until dawn for another trial.

But after Hao Xiaoren, the villain, arrived in Huai'an, he didn't know what 'ecstasy' soul soup he poured into Liu 'Chun', so he temporarily took the post of Huai'an prefect and 'meddled' in local government affairs.

The first thing this guy did when he sat in the lobby of Huai'an Mansion was to count the registered population, and it took two days to properly count the population in the city and manage it in units. Each person is also given a pass, and if one person has an accident, the whole person will sit together. As for the homeless people and merchants in the city, they were managed according to their place of residence and the governor who was in the city.

Huai'an is a big commercial city, in addition to the permanent population, there are tens of thousands of floating people in the city all the year round, and no one can say whether there are 'spies' or ulterior motives among these people.

After Hao Xiaoren clarified the population and divided the area for household registration management, the order in the city was suppressed. Moreover, it was 'done' properly in two days, and it showed a very high level of means, which is really admirable. (No pop-up ads)

The second thing he did after becoming the prefect was also remarkable: sealing the treasury and implementing a rationing system.

There is nothing to refute this, and during the war, the supply of materials to the army must be guaranteed

。 If there is money and food, the army will fight to the death.

However, after all, the money and food in the treasury are limited, whether it is organizing the dead to fight in the city, or organizing the people to recruit the homeless and train the new army, the silver makes it like flowing water. Soon, the treasury began to bottom out.

If this matter is replaced by the old chief soldier, it is very simple, directly send troops to rob the merchants and the people.

The problem is that there is a strong enemy outside, and if the city is implementing apportionment, the internal and external difficulties will be difficult, and the people's hearts will be unstable, and I am afraid that this Huai'an will not be able to hold it.

At this time, Hao Xiaoren issued another order: during the war, the businesses in the city can continue to operate as usual, and the government will not approve prices. However, merchants must pay a tax, which is twice as high as before. Moreover, there is no curfew in the city to facilitate the operation of special industries, but the commercial tax is ten times that of normal times.

Is this purely 'chaos', you know, during the war, prices skyrocketed. In order to avoid turmoil in the city, the defending side will generally take strong measures to stabilize prices in order to calm people's hearts, and it is also common to catch a few and kill a few merchants who have made war money. This good villain is good, not only allowing the businessman to 'manipulate' the price, but also taking a piece of the pie, which is purely another kind of robbery. However, the means are much more clever than those of the old soldiers.

After a month, he made a lot of money for the Shandong army. Especially in the place of fireworks and 'flowers' like the Qinglou Chu Pavilion, because during the war, human life is as cheap as grass, and with money, most people will buy drunk with a thousand dollars. There are not many others in Huai'an City, but there are many rich people. Especially after the curfew was opened, these days, the children of merchants and families, and even men from well-off families, will send cartloads of silver into restaurants and green buildings to anesthetize themselves with wine.

Of course, after the cart of silver was sent in the front foot, the back foot was transported out by the Shandong army in the form of tax collection to reward the soldiers of the city.

The reward of the Shandong army is also ridiculously high, whether it is the army or the civilian, as long as you climb the city wall, you will be given a penny of refreshment silver first. Throw a stone down, whether you hit Jiannu or not, a tael of silver. 'Shoot' an arrow and a tael of silver at Jiannu. Pour a pot of lead juice and golden soup down, two or two. Cut off the head of a Qing army, and the reward will be great, one hundred taels.

As long as you are brave enough, as long as you go to the city for a day, all your pockets will be filled with silver. Then go down, go to the restaurants and brothels and spend the night merry, run out of money, and come back the next day. People are dead, not a few bars to be fed, and the wine and 'meat' are full.

Relying on this kind of gold and silver collected by filthy means, the Shandong army, which had never been able to fight, and the people who were temporarily requisitioned and issued, actually held out for a month

。

The street where Liu Konghe is located is concentrated with more than a dozen restaurants and more than a dozen Chu restaurants. It is the busiest time of the day, with red lanterns everywhere and the streets bustling with people. From time to time there was laughter in the restaurant next to it, with the smell of mellow wine wafting in, and occasionally a few 'female' laughter.

In the rumbling sound of cars and horses, there is the sound of silk and bamboo mixed in, which makes people feel like they have come to a peaceful and prosperous era in a trance, and they have to be "confused" and "confused" for the drunken gold "fan" of this famous capital of Huaishang.

Jiangbei Fortune Tai is half gathered in Huai'an, and Huai'an Fortune Tai is half gathered in this area, right?

If there is no gold and silver, the Huai'an city defense at this moment does not know what the situation is. No matter how you look at it, this good villain still has merit for Huai'an and the Shandong army, and his financial management methods are still very clever, without 'stirring' the people's uprising, through taxation, so that businessmen and wealthy households are willing to send the silver over, and then turn it into military expenses and reward silver on the front line...... War is money and food, and this Huai'an defensive war is a war of money.

It's just that Hao Xiaoren's governance methods are too evil!

Before coming, Liu Konghe was full of murderous energy, and just wanted to see Hao Xiaoren and cut off his head without saying a word. Seeing the situation in front of him, the fatigue on his body seemed to be softened by the fat powder and the smell of wine, and his nerves suddenly relaxed.

Seeing that he was tall and covered in blood, the people on the street were not afraid, and they didn't even have the idea of avoiding it.

In fact, there are many warriors like him who come here to relax and accumulate strength, and it is not surprising that he has seen a lot.

The speed of the war horse gradually slowed down in the flowing water and horses on this street, and it took a long time for Liu Konghe to arrive in front of "Leaning on the Red Mansion".

Seeing that he was covered in blood and wearing armor, the old bustard knew that there was another God of Wealth who had arrived, and he threw a handkerchief at him with an "ouch" sound: "Master, you haven't been here for a few days, but I don't know that Mei Xiang has been thinking of you in her heart, and she has cried several times, and her eyes are swollen like a peach." Today you can calculate, Mei Xiang doesn't know what to be happy about. Hurry up, please! ”

was pounced by her handkerchief, and a strong smell of perfume hit, Liu Konghe was so smoked that he almost fainted, and he was stunned: "What plum fragrance, inexplicable?" ”

When did I, a good deputy general of Shandong, the most respected old general in the army, ever come to such a dirty place?
