Someone has already taken over Du Jinchan's words viciously: "Seeds, seeds, so what if you can afford the seeds!"
Du Jinchan has been doing farm work since he was a child, so he naturally knows what this means. Even if he can afford seeds, the time before the summer harvest is often the most difficult time of the year for farmers. This is the so-called spring famine: "Then I This time I have been ordered by His Majesty to inspect Northern Anhui. Please"
"Stop talking about Liu Juehu! What we want is a way to survive, a way to survive!" A man had already gathered around him, and his saliva almost sprayed on Du Jinchan: "Yes, we just want a way to survive. , it doesn¡¯t matter Liu Juehu, Qingyao or Zhang Lexing, as long as he gives us a way to survive, we will work with him! You know, people in Sujiaji in the south are already starving to death!"
"People are starving to death?" Du Jinchan seemed to have fallen into an ice cave: "People are really starving to death!"
The man spitting was Wang Huaiyi. He was not a staunch member of the Nian Army, but now he felt that he could no longer stand it: "Yes, people are starving to death. Now the government is forcing the people to rebel, and the people have no choice but to rebel." , Du Niangniang, if you don¡¯t give us a way to survive, we can only follow Zhang Lexing to the end!"
Du Jinchan was surrounded by so many people who were twisting their heads. Even though she was always smart and clever, she had to say: "Don't be anxious, everyone. Don't be anxious. Let's think of a solution together!"
"When the government forces the people to rebel, there is never a shortage of twisters in Zhiheji. Every one is killed and another one is killed!"
This is really true. When the Nien Army pacified this place, many people were killed. It even got to the point where even Pheasant River Collection itself changed hands several times. But at this time, an old woman said: "Brothers, please listen to my wife. Don't rebel!"
Du Jinchan glanced at her. It was certainly not easy for this old woman to be among this group of people twisting their heads. She asked: "Is it Su Tianfu's family?"
Su Tianfu is the general leader of the Black Flag, and he is now fighting outside with Zhang Lexing. This seems to be the mother of his family. This mother is already seventy or eighty years old. The ups and downs have made this old woman go through too many vicissitudes. , but she knelt down in front of a group of people and said: "Brothers, please give our old Su family a way to survive. If you rebel again, our Su family will be wiped out!"
Women like her can be said to be the biggest victims of the war: "Before the war, our old Su family was prosperous. Although we never had enough to eat in disaster years, we could still get by. They The three brothers are also very filial to me, an old woman!"
Du Jinchan and the people present continued to listen to the old woman talking about the past: "Our family is from Hui. We only have a little land, so Tianfu doesn't rely on farming to make a living. He sells sheep. A few hundred sheep are enough for food and clothing, but then you pick them up. Our Su family is doomed"
The old woman told the story of the Su family's blood and tears: "In the fourth year of Xianfeng, his brother died. In the fourth year of Xianfeng, he lost two grandsons. In the sixth year of Xianfeng, his brother died again. There are only three brothers in our family, and now there is only one left." Tianfu doesn¡¯t know whether he¡¯s alive or dead outside!¡±
This is not the biggest problem: "Besides, our Su family claims that more than forty villages belong to our Su family, but how many are left now? It would be good if we can make up twenty. They are dead and injured. The injury"
For the Su family who belong to the Hui tribe, this is indeed a real disaster, and everyone can't help but think of the situation at home.
Starting from the large-scale flag-raising in the third year of Xianfeng, the Nian Army and the Qing Army, and more recently the Hong Army, and even the Taiping Army have launched rounds of fighting. In some of these battles, the Nian Army won a great victory, and in some cases the Nian Army was victorious. At that time, the Nian Army was defeated. The Nian Army was like the star grass in northern Anhui. They were killed one after another. I don¡¯t know how many Nian soldiers were killed, but there was no trace behind such a huge sacrifice. hope.
"My old woman has eleven grandchildren, but now only two are still alive. If you make trouble now, will you take away the old woman's last hope?"
"Please leaders, don't rebel again, never rebel again!" Su Tianfu's mother cried and said: "It goes back and forth, robbing the rich and giving to the poor, but not all the poor are killed in the end! "
Seeing her kneeling on the ground begging for mercy and feeling unbearable, Xiang Wang Huaiyi said: "Aunt Su, we are not asking Empress Du and Empress Liu to express our love. As long as Liu Juehu's golden mouth is opened, we will have a way to survive. Du Niangniang, our fathers and fellow villagers are all watching you. If you continue to watch, you don¡¯t know how many people will starve to death!"
When everyone said this, Du Jinchan shed tears.
Although she likes Jiangnan, is nostalgic for Jiangnan, and even regards Jiangnan as her destination, she was born here, grew up here, fought here, and the barren mountains and rivers here made her nostalgic: "Okay I will fight hard."?!¡±
Even if she was blamed by Liu Chang afterwards, she did not want anyone to starve to death in northern Anhui, even if they were weeds like weeds: "I promise here that as long as I live, I will not allow them to be like weeds without roots 3 Lady!"
"Jin Chan?" Liu Sanniang also looked very solemn: "What do you want to use?"
"Um!"
"Kneel down and accept the imperial edict!" Du Jinchan said seriously: "Don't talk nonsense!"
"I know, it's Emperor Zhenyuan!" Wang Huaiyi quickly corrected himself: "It's not Liu Juehu!"
But Du Jinchan also knew that Emperor Zhenyuan was not a good title. There were two emperors in history who used the reign name of Zhenyuan. The first one was that of Dezong of Tang Dynasty. Although there was a resurgence in the early period, the Jingyuan Change He no longer had the ambitions of the past, and the next Zhenyuan reign was no longer a good title. It was the title of King Hailing of Jin. This was the emperor of the Jin Dynasty who was defeated and quarried, which was a joke to the world.
However, she also knew that Liu Chang was born in the grass and did not care about these details. In the private conversation with her, Liu Chang even praised King Hailing of Jin: "If King Hailing is really the one in the history books, If you are useless, how can you drink from the Yangtze River? This person is very human."
It was then that Du Jinchan realized that Liu Chang was not a grassroots man in the mountains as others thought, and knew nothing about historical anecdotes. She even suspected that Liu Chang had chosen this reign name because of the absurdity of King Hailing of Jin Dynasty.
And this edict also has Liu Chang's personal style, and is as simple as possible: "This is the place where Zhiheji is located in Haozhou, Anhui Province. It has been war-torn, suffered repeated military disasters, and hungry people are everywhere. Woyang County is specially established"
This is the same as in history. After the war, because Pheasant River Ji has long been a base area for the Nian Army, the Qing Dynasty specially set up Woyang County in Pheasant River Ji. It later became an extremely important military county in Anhui, and now Liu Chang Just bringing it forward.
Liu Chang's imperial favor was so great that he exempted Woyang County from the imperial grain for five years in one breath, and arrangements were also made for the administrative expenses of Woyang County. The central government would fully subsidize Woyang County in the first year, and Woyang County would be fully subsidized from the second year on. The county's fiscal expenditures were shared equally between the central government and Anhui Province at a ratio of 73% to 64%.
Hearing that Woyang County was to be established, these capitals were very happy. They knew that setting up a county seat and not collecting money and food locally for many years would be useful to them. However, he was also concerned about another issue: "Mother Du, just setting up a Woyang County There is not enough money in Yang County, everyone is waiting for the rain from the sky, but this is just a drop in the bucket and cannot save the fire in front of us!"
Du Jinchan immediately replied: "Your Majesty has agreed that with Woyang County as the center, two more production groups can be established within the establishment of the Huanghuai Construction Corps"
The two production groups only have a thousand people plus their families, which can only benefit three to four thousand people at most. However, the meaning of Liu Sanniang's words suddenly changed: "But if the heroes in northern Anhui can do their best to serve the country, they can consider going abroad. migrant!"
"migrant?"
Northern Anhui is a place with too many people and too little land. Even the scholars who are most opposed to the Taiping Rebellion being caused by population pressure have to admit that the Nian Army was a natural response to population pressure. Even after several years of military disasters, the land with too many people Few conflicts are still unresolved, not to mention that northern Anhui can be described as a barren land and harsh waters.
"Where are you going to immigrate to? Are you going to Nantong as agreed?"
They were very afraid of leaving their hometown, but when they heard about immigrating to Nantong, they were very happy. Compared with northern Anhui, Nantong can be said to be a paradise. The reason why Liu Chang was preparing to immigrate to northern Jiangsu was to replicate the Republic of China. The historical reclamation of the Huaihe River was the most modern agricultural operation in modern history. It was completely operated under a corporate system, which ultimately changed the economic outlook of the Huaihe River and gave Zhang Zhuangyuan a god-like status in the hearts of Nantong people.
It¡¯s just that Liu Chang¡¯s current choice is not Nantong. He chooses another goal: ¡°There are many choices, including Taiwan and the Philippines, but the best choice right now is outside the customs!¡±
Customs¡¡
Wang Huaiyi immediately shrank his neck: "It's so cold"
When he thought of the cold weather in the Northeast, he wanted to retreat, but the people present were twisting their heads and knowing: "It's good outside the Guan, it's very good outside the Guan!"
They know where the place is outside the Pass. Although it is cold and freezing, it is also a truly hot land, with fertile fields thousands of miles away and countless treasures. More importantly, since the Qing Dynasty entered the Pass, they have regarded the entire Outside the Pass as their own territory. , Han people were not allowed to leave the country to cultivate, so the Northeast was extremely vast and sparsely populated, which was completely in contrast to the situation in Northern Anhui.
"Good! It's very good outside the customs!"
¡°It¡¯s great outside the customs!¡±
When these people talked about the real situation outside the customs in detail, their hearts became excited, let alone settling in such a place.Thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of coins are no problem. More importantly, people like them can suddenly become big landowners. But Wang Huaiyi is too narrow-minded: "Isn't the territory outside the customs your majesty's territory now?"
"Sooner or later it will be the king's land!"
Wang Huaiyi immediately stamped his foot: "Well, I can only feel sorry for Brother Zhang Lexing!"
