303 Inside the North Building
North Closure City, the fifth floor of the north building of the town.
When building the north building of the town, Lu Haikong deliberately made the conference room used for a rare time.
And at about the same time that Lu Haikong returned to Beifeng, the Wenchen under Lu Haikong rarely held a meeting, and the host of this meeting was Xi Zhicai, who was supposed to cultivate in the medicine garden.
In the conference room, the ministers under the command of Lu Haikong were basically present, and the purpose of their gathering was to discuss the issue of the southern part of the state.
In fact, this problem was arranged by Lu Haikong long before leaving, and it was originally solved by Wang Jun, and after the locust plague, Wang Jun really stood up for the first time to solve this problem.
It's just that both Lu Haikong and Wang Jun misjudged the seriousness of this locust plague, and Wang Jun didn't expect that the disaster in a county that Lu Haikong told him about actually spread to several counties in the south of Bingzhou, and there were even signs of development in the northern part of Bingzhou.
In the past ten days, Wang Jun has worked hard to solve the problem of the locust plague, but in the past ten days, Wang Jun's only result is only to control the locust plague and not let it spread to the northern part of Bingzhou.
In fact, not long after the locust plague began to spread, Wang Jun vaguely knew that the problem in the southern part of Bingzhou was definitely not just a 'locust plague' problem, and the problems inside were quite complicated, and he seemed to be unable to solve it alone.
But at this time, Lu Haikong himself was in the [Tomb of the First Emperor] and Xi Zhicai, who could have replaced Lu Haikong in Beifeng, was also recuperating, and at this time Wang Jun really didn't know who to ask for help.
You must know that although Lu Haikong handed over the work of Xi Zhicai to Xun You, he only handed over the work of the intelligence department to him, and did not give him the authority to sit in Beifeng, that is, the military and political power.
On the one hand, Lu Haikong is confident that he can save Xi Zhicai, and on the other hand, Xun You has no problem with his talent, but he is still a little worse in terms of qualifications.
So this matter dragged on like this, until not long ago there was bad news from Shangjun, and Wang Juncai could only grit his teeth and invite him to preside over this meeting.
In the conference room, Xi Zhicai sat on the first seat with a pale face, listening to the report of Wang Jun in the next seat.
"This time, the locust plague began to appear in several counties in the south of Xihe County and several counties in the south of Taiyuan County, and in just a few days, it spread to the south of Xihe, Taiyuan, Shangjun, Shangdang and even Shuofang, and the entire southern part of Bingzhou was basically enveloped. In just a few days, millions of acres of crops have been eaten, and hundreds of millions of dollars of economic losses have been directly caused. ”
Wang Jun's face was a little pale, especially when it came to economic losses, Wang Jun's face was even more pale, this 'big housekeeper' of land, sea and air was the most sensitive to financial losses.
The faces of the Wenchen present were not very good, although they did not suffer as deeply about the direct economic losses as Wang Jun, but they also knew what this meant to the people in the southern part of Bingzhou.
"Financial damage isn't the worst problem!" Although Xi Zhicai, who was sitting in the first seat, was pale, his brain was still spinning, and he was not turning slowly.
"Yes!" Tian Feng, who was next to Wang Jun, nodded and took over the conversation.
"Although we have experienced locust plagues and economic losses of hundreds of millions, we have been fully planting [potatoes] and [sweet potatoes] in the northern part of the state since the second half of last year, and we are still quite sufficient in terms of grain reserves. But the problem itself lies with the families! ”
"As we all know, the governance in the southern part of Bingzhou is basically dominated by the family, and it was not until last year that we began to arrange our people little by little, and since that incident, the family in the southern part of the state has been in a panic all day, and they are worried that one day they will follow in the footsteps, and we have always focused on suppression for them, which has deepened their fear."
"In addition, our behavior of starting to arrange students from the [Licai Academy] in the southern part of Bingzhou has also touched their sensitive nerves, and we feel that this is a precursor to our ban on them."
"So after the locust plague, these families began to get restless, not only disobeying the decree of disaster relief on our side, but even constantly doing tricks, either stirring up public anger and waiting for the opportunity to clean up our people, or creating chaos and preparing to relocate, and even more presumptuously, according to the news from Gongda's side, the Shangjun county guard seems to be preparing to do some ......"
"Ahem......"
Tian Feng's words were not finished, and suddenly, the first Xi Zhicai coughed, and then his face flushed and he directly spurted out a mouthful of blood.
This sudden scene really scared Wang Jun and them, especially Wang Jun, Xi Zhi was invited by him, and he must be more nervous than anyone else when this kind of thing happens.
However, when they were about to get up to check on Xi Zhicai's condition, Xi Zhicai waved his hand and motioned for them to sit back in place, and then Xi Zhicai took out a handkerchief from his body to wipe the blood on the corner of his mouth.
"Don't be nervous, there's nothing to do, you have to believe Mr. Hua, he said that I still have ten months to live."
As he spoke, Xi Zhicai put down the handkerchief in his hand, and his face was a little complicated: "But I was a little surprised, I didn't expect you to come to me just for this......
When Wang Jun heard this, his face was astringent, and he subconsciously stood up: "I'm sorry ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Xi Zhicai waving his hand.
Xi Zhicai's mood was a little complicated, he knew very well that the reason why this incident had evolved like this was not because of Wang Jun's lack of ability, but because he happened to be in a headless state in Beifeng at this time.
Lu Haikong ran to break the copy by himself, Xi Zhicai was seriously ill, and Lu Haikong didn't plan to arrange a principal, which led to the situation in front of him.
"No, it's not your problem, it's my problem, it's also the lord's problem, okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about this time's problem, my opinion on this locust plague incident is to wait and see."
"Wait and see?" Wang Jun was slightly stunned: "What do you mean?" Shouldn't troops be sent to suppress it immediately? ”
When Wang Jun was looking for Xi Zhicai, he actually had an idea in his heart about how to deal with it, but he didn't have the power to command the army, and he needed to go through Xi Zhicai, but he didn't expect that Xi Zhicai's way of dealing with it was to wait and see, which was a bit unexpected for him.
Xi Zhicai smiled when he heard this, and was about to explain.
And at this moment, the door to the conference room was suddenly opened.
"Yo, where are they?"
As this thick domineering voice sounded, Lu Haikong directly pushed open the door of the conference room and strode in.
After coming in, Lu Haikong saw the blood stains in front of Xi Zhicai that had not been wiped off at first glance, and his face moved slightly, and then returned to normal.
On the side of Xi Zhicai, when he saw Lu Haikong pushing the door with a meteor in stride, he was stunned at first, and then a smile appeared on his face, but he didn't say anything, and he fainted directly in front of him......
