- Han Shimou 260_Chapter 260 Dignity However, Wen Han will not give up easily, because he has already decided to use his life, and even his descendants and descendants, to let these people regain their dignity. . - "This work is recommended by registered members of Piaotian Literature" This work is recommended by registered members of Piaotian Literature./You don't even know it!

Only when people have the most basic dignity can they have their own thoughts. The fusion of these thoughts is the way Wenhan wants to realize, and drive the world with public opinion.
"Dignity?"
"As heaven moves forward, a gentleman should constantly strive to improve himself?"
"As long as you put in your labor and sweat, you should be rewarded?"
Wenhan¡¯s words were like a huge bomb exploding in the minds of these refugees.
Some refugees began to murmur in low voices, looking thoughtful, and as some people slowly stood up, those who were still kneeling also stood up one after another.
In these troubled times, it is already difficult for these refugees to survive. For them, dignity is simply something out of reach and unreal, because dignity cannot fill their stomachs or protect their bodies from the suffering of winter cold.
As for self-improvement? It's a problem for them to even survive, how can they strengthen themselves?
They can¡¯t even imagine that if they work hard, they can get the rewards they deserve. Because this is an era of exploitation, what they pay is simply not proportional to what they get.
In the past, when they still had land to cultivate, the horrific land tax deprived them of almost all the fruits of their labor. They worked hard all spring, summer, autumn and winter, and in the end they could not even take care of their wives and children. In the end, they had to sell their wives and children in order to survive.
This situation, year after year, year after year, has already ground their souls into a pile of crumbs. Let them even forget that they are individuals.
This is the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a cruel and realistic era.
"I hope you will remember what I said today. I know it is impossible for you to change immediately. But as long as I am still the governor of Hedong for a day, and you are still in Hedong, then I, Wen Bufan, will I will do my best to let you live with dignity and like a human being!"
Wenhan knew that the words had come to this point and that the fire was burning brightly enough. After he finished speaking, he stepped forward and left with Zhou Long, Guan Yu, Xilong and other government officials under the eyes of the refugees.
After they left, there was an absolute silence behind them.
Some refugees¡¯ faces were full of tears before they knew it. Some men clenched their fists, and their eyes began to look different from before.
"Don't cry, didn't you hear what the prefect said? We must strengthen ourselves!"
"Yes! We must strengthen ourselves!! We must live with dignity!!"
"Yes, everyone, don't stop and do things quickly. The prefect said that as long as we work, we will get the rewards we deserve. We are doing things for ourselves!"
¡°Perhaps, some thoughts and beliefs that were different from the past have sprouted in the hearts of these refugees. After the deathly silence, these refugees burst out with energy that they had never had before. They grabbed wooden stakes one by one, with firm eyes, and began to contribute their own labor and sweat to their houses.
"What kind of character is this?"
Xilong walked behind Wenhan and looked at Wenhan's smile because he heard the words of the refugees behind him. Xilong felt a lot for a while.
People who have always been ambitious and ambitious, who want to subvert the world and achieve great things. They almost always regard the common people as pawns to be used. Even if they are not used, they are placed in an extremely low position.
Although Wenhan once told Xilong without reservation that if he could get to that point and realize his way, he would conquer the world.
A person who wants to conquer the world would put the people in such a high position. This is simply unprecedented.
Xilong began to wonder, is he a selfish person or a selfless person? Or will he eventually change? The human heart is hard to fathom and the sea water is hard to measure, Xilong sighed silently.
¡°However, Xilong knew it very well. Now Wen Bufan is the person he wants to help.
The promotion of farming is like a fire that is getting stronger and stronger. When the refugees in other states and counties hear rumors that the refugees in Hedong have actually been allocated land, and the government has allocated materials for building houses to help these refugees live in peace. Moreover, they also gave them grain in advance so that they could deduct it from the grain after the harvest.
Such a good policy simply drove the refugees from other states and counties crazy. The states and counties near Hedong flocked to Hedong like an ant colony. Hedong'sThe population rose sharply for a while, and in less than six days, all the wasteland in the east of the river had been allocated.
And the immigration frenzy has not slowed down at all, and refugees from other places continue to arrive. This forced Wen Han to issue orders repeatedly to inform the refugees who had come from thousands of miles away that the land east of the river had been divided.
Some refugees who were unwilling to return empty-handed made trouble and acted like hooligans in various counties in Hedong. They threatened Wenhan and others that they would not be given the land and would not leave. We will not allow this farming to be implemented easily.
Of course, there is a lot of turmoil in this, which is controlled by some wealthy people in Hedong who do not want to see the implementation of the farming.
But Wenhan was a man who would never show mercy when he needed to be ruthless. While he sent soldiers and horses from Anyi to various places to assist, he also ordered officials from various counties to send troops to forcibly relocate the refugees who refused to leave and intended to cause trouble. . This also resulted in several large-scale conflicts.
And the refugees who were driven out of Hedong by Wen Han declared loudly that Wen Han was a person who had a false reputation and was not a good official who loved the people at all!
This rumor was immediately refuted by the refugees in Hedong and the refugees who came from other states and counties to get land.
Wenhan, on the other hand, just smiled lightly at this rumor. He knows that no matter what kind of person he is, there will always be people who say he is good and others who say he is bad.
If he only cares about these vague reputations, he will never be able to achieve great things.
The wasteland has been allocated, and the construction of houses in various places has been completed one after another. In order to allow these refugees to settle down, Wenhan took the lead and helped with a group of officials and soldiers. At the same time, the Wei family also sent many people to assist.
When Wenhan's farmland policy was officially implemented, all the people in Hedong already understood that the Wei family and Wenhan had not turned against each other at all. The wasteland acquisition war was simply a good show staged by the two of them.
Those wealthy people from Hedong suddenly realized that they were being tricked, and they were all so angry that they jumped up and down. At the same time, he denounced the Wei family, saying that the Wei family had betrayed them, and threatened the Wei family. If they did not give them an explanation, they would cut off all contacts and business cooperation with the Wei family in the future.
Wei Zhongdao dismissed the denunciations and threats, and tried his best to suppress the opposition of the clan members. Wei Zhongdao helped Wen Han without hesitation. Anyone with a little bit of wisdom would know that the relationship between the two is extraordinary. The Wei family is very important to Wen Han. In the past two months, with the help of the resourceful Xi Long, Wei Zhongdao quickly seized the military power of the Wei family firmly in his hands.
Wei Zhongdao now has an undisputed position in the Wei family. As for his two uncles, Wei Zhongdao and Wen Han secretly visited them and promised benefits that were enough to tempt them. With the help of Wei Zhongdao's two uncles, other branches of the Wei family could only let Wei Zhongdao dominate the world with one hand.
There is no doubt that the policy of farming has a huge impact on the wealthy people in Hedong. Because, in this way, the value of the food they hold will plummet. God knows how much food these rich people have accumulated for generations, some even dozens of generations.
¡°Furthermore, food is the most important thing for the people. With food, they can control and manipulate their private soldiers, and constantly recruit refugees for their livelihood. And in these troubled times, it is even possible that they can find a place.
Of course, this is all under the premise that only they have an absolute amount of food, while other people at the bottom have no food to eat and are forced to work hard for survival.
But once the farming is successful, the people will have enough food to survive. Then they won't be able to recruit these people so easily, and their private soldiers will be ready to move, and they will no longer be as hard-working and uncomplaining as before.
By then, as long as the government, which has a huge stock of food, calls for conscription, the private soldiers in their government may flock to the government.
And for these wealthy people, everyone is more or less ambitious and hopes to have great power. The value of food, soldiers and horses are what they must have to implement their ambitions.
The implementation of this measure in the field can be said to have forced the wealthy people in Hedong to stand opposite Wenhan. The two parties immediately reached a position where they were as incompatible as fire and water.
"The wealthy people in Hedong were the first to fight back, and they came quickly. They united and put pressure on Wenhan, asking Wenhan to treat everyone equally and share their land. The reason is why only the refugees can share this land and get this benefit. Even refugees from other places can get it.
As a wealthy family in Hedong, they should also get a share, and the share must be big enough.
To this, Wenhan only gave one reply. Want to divide the land? Can! If you rich people are so poor that you have no food to eat and no clothes to cover your body, he will break up immediately without saying a word.
Wenhan's reply was simply a hooligan in the eyes of these Hedong wealthy people. What kind of people are they? It is absolutely impossible for them to pretend to be poor or to pretend to be grandchildren.
If you are not good at literature, then you can use martial arts.
The wealthy people in Hedong made an agreement with each other to send private soldiers from the government to dress as hooligans in the counties where they were located to destroy the houses where refugees lived in the wastelands outside the counties.
Wenhan seemed to have expected that they would make such a damaging move, and had already ordered the county officials to keep a close eye on their every move. Once they took action, they would immediately send troops to suppress it. Moreover, Wenhan also distributed a lot of weapons to the refugees living in the wastelands outside the counties, so that they could have weapons to defend their homes.
And for these refugees who have finally found a safe home, whoever dares to destroy their hard-earned home, even if the emperor comes, they dare to fight him to the death.
Wenhan¡¯s words that day, about human dignity, self-improvement, and deserved rewards for labor, soon spread throughout Hedong. These refugees have been changed to some extent. They are no longer weak, allowing others to bully them without daring to fight back, and Wenhan is supporting them behind them.
These refugees took up arms and faced the private soldiers of wealthy families pretending to be hooligans. They were fearless and even crazy. Some counties did not need the government to take action at all. They relied solely on the resistance teams formed by the refugees. He beat away the private soldiers of wealthy families pretending to be hooligans.
At the same time, the wealthy people in Hedong also gradually discovered that the people they assigned to the government were not as versatile and powerful as before. Moreover, there is even more news congestion. From the beginning of Wenhan's wasteland acquisition war to the implementation of farming, these tribesmen in the government never received any early warning news.
It is absolutely impossible for these tribesmen to surrender to Wenhan. Within a wealthy family, without exception, each clan member has cultivated the idea of ??putting family interests as the core since childhood.
¡°Then why these tribesmen did not take action when their family interests were harmed, and they did not even send back any news to warn them.
