Chapter 571 You are my brother
Knowing that the person facing him was Su Xuanming, the son of Duke Yun, Yang Lan's attitude became much more enthusiastic.
"I heard that Duke Yun has eighty-three heads and six arms, is eighty feet tall, can carry a cauldron, and can breathe fire from his mouth. Is it true?"
Su Xuanming had heard all the more outrageous rumors. Su Xuanming smiled and said: "False. My mother-in-law looks like a fairy."
Yang Lan felt a little regretful: "It is said that Duke Yun ran thousands of miles to attack Chierle and set fire to Chierle. Is this also false?"
"No, this is real!"
Yang Lan was speechless: "It's really surprising that a beautiful girl can achieve such great achievements. Is it true or false that Duke Yun regained the Sixteenth Prefecture of Youyun and drove the Tatars out of the grassland? All the officials in Henan County are spreading the word This is false.”
Su Xuanming said seriously: "This is true! My little sister led all the people of Yunzhou and the women's army to defend Yunzhou City during this battle!"
Yang Lan let out a long breath and said in admiration: "Gong Yun has done such a great job, but the imperial court is so scrambling and didn't give any reward! The lower states and counties also spread rumors, saying that Duke Yun deliberately exaggerated the results of the war. I guess it was them themselves. If I can’t do it, I just don’t want to admit my incompetence.”
Su Xuanming didn't expect that outside of Kyoto, other prefectures and counties would actually talk about the recapture of Youyun Sixteen Prefectures like this.
"Rumors stop only the wise, facts speak louder than words. My grandma's great achievements cannot be covered up by the words of these villains!"
Yang Lan nodded heavily: "That's true."
Su Xuanming asked: "Why was Brother Yang put in prison?"
Yang Lan picked up a straw on the ground and put it in his mouth: "I'm unlucky. I was originally a small leader of the Henan County rebel army. Later, I was suppressed by the court and recruited. I spent money and found a way to become a small leader. Military attaché.”
"In the past few months, the drought has been severe. The imperial court will send people to the south of the Yangtze River to transport grain from the south of the Yangtze River to Kyoto and hand it over to Jing Zhaoyin to recruit refugees as soldiers."
"The superiors were unwilling to go, so they left this job to me. When we sailed to the border of Shaanzhou, we were suddenly hit by a heavy rain. After finally waiting for the weather to clear up, it started to rain again. The food was stuck halfway and I couldn't move."< br>
"It was so good that the river surged and all the food and boats were washed away."
There is no need for anyone to frame him for this kind of thing. According to the law, he should be compensated with food. If he cannot afford the compensation, he will be sent to the army.
Yang Lan had nothing to say about this, except that the guards did not give the prisoners food for half a month: "You are still good, the guards dare not starve you to death, but ordinary prisoners like us are in misery. We can't eat every day for three days." Rice.”
Yang Lan touched his stomach, which was empty and burning.
If he continues like this, he will starve to death first without waiting for trial and conviction.
Su Xuanming lowered his head and was silent for a moment, drank half of the thick porridge that he had not drunk, and then pushed the porridge bowl to the middle of the road.
"If Brother Yang doesn't dislike it, half of this will be yours."
Yang Lan looked at Su Xuanming in disbelief, his throat rolling up and down uncontrollably: "Su Dalang, are you really willing to feed me? Can you be full with half a bowl of porridge?"
Su Xuanming waved his hand: "Meeting is fate. Brother Yang, you don't have to be polite."
Yang Lan's eyes were so hungry that he stretched out his hand and tried his best to reach the bowl.
Yang Lan devoured half the bowl of porridge, and even licked the rice soup hanging on the wall of the bowl clean with his tongue.
"Su Dalang, from today on, you are my good brother, Yang Lan! If I am destined to go out, I will repay you well!"
……
The news that Su Xuanming was sent to prison has not yet spread back to Shuozhou. Gu Nanxi's rescue was timely. After a large number of people from Pingyang County evacuated Pingyang County, all the river embankments burst!
The rushing river water instantly turned the entire Pingyang County into a vast ocean.
Many people looked at the river and couldn't help crying.
One is that I am afraid that I will almost die, and the other is that I regret that my life's accumulation has been reduced to nothing.
But these victims soon had no time to be sentimental. They were assigned various jobs to support themselves.
Shuozhou has richer mineral resources than Yunzhou, and has more mountains and forests than Yunzhou.
These victims can go to Jingshan to log trees, mine in mines, build bridges and pave roads, and dig weirs and ponds.
The frail elderly and children who have lost the protection of their parents are arranged to grow mycelium and mushrooms.
In short, except for those babies who are crying for food, almost everyone can find a job, which will not fill their stomachs, but they will not starve to death.
Gu Nanxi and Niu Jinyi were inspecting the disaster situation and saw the refugees sleeping on the ground. Those in slightly better conditions used straw to cushion their bodies.
Gu Nanxi frowned: "Late autumn is approaching and the weather is getting colder. If the victims don't have a place to live, they may not be able to survive this winter."
There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!
Niu Jinyi looked at the flood water on the other side of the river, and there were faint signs of receding: "Mr. Xu said that in a few days, the river water should recede. At that time, we will enter Pingyang County and re-plan the houses, so as to try to escape before winter comes." , let them have a shelter from the wind and rain.”
Disaster victims are mobile and resources are limited. The only way to rationally distribute resources is to wait for the floods to recede and allow them to return to their hometowns and rebuild their homes.
As for the refugees who have signed ten-year land lease contracts with Shuozhou, they have already begun digging foundations and building brick houses.
The Yunzhou Brick Factory sent people to Shuozhou to guide the construction of kilns and bake bricks, and the refugees could choose to exchange their labor for red bricks.
If you really don’t have that much labor force, you can also choose to apply for low-interest housing construction funds from the county government.
A series of policies in Shuozhou tell the refugees that as long as you are willing to take root in Shuozhou, the benefits will be great!
If you just want to spend the disaster years in Shuozhou, you can only work hard to ensure that you don't starve to death.
Gu Nanxi looked all the way and discovered an extremely important problem. The ratio of male to female victims was extremely imbalanced!
"Jin Yi, what is the ratio of men to women in Shuozhou, Yunzhou?"
Niu Jin was stunned when he was asked. He really hadn't noticed this: "I haven't counted this yet."
Gu Nanxi: "There are more men than women among the victims, which is not a good phenomenon."
When people cannot survive, having more men and fewer women is not a problem.
But once everything is on track, there will be more men than women, and a large number of old bachelors will not be able to find wives, which will easily cause social unrest.
At the same time, this is not conducive to population growth.
If Yunzhou Shuozhou wants to develop healthily, fertility must be encouraged.
After all, people will die in war, and one battle in Yunzhou destroyed almost one-third of Yunzhou Qingzhuang.
In ancient times when the production level was not advanced enough, manpower was a very important productivity!
Gu Nanxi decided to discuss with Cui Sanlun and others what measures should be taken to encourage childbirth after returning.
"Sir, someone is looking for you, claiming to be Xiao Hei from Yongchang Hou Mansion!"
