Chapter 50: Taolin Civil Affairs (Part 2)

Then Wen Chou led people to investigate the civil construction in Taolin one by one. There is no need to say more about the people being grateful.

The civil affairs were declining and often felt sad. Wen Chou did not bring any money and property when he came, so he did not want to stay here for too long. The matter of cropping millet was urgent, so he quit the refugees and hurried back to Guanshi.

"Wenjun, why are you in a hurry?" The farmers on both sides of the fields also found something strange and asked questions in their hearts. After some inquiry, they could find out the reason. They all praised their kindness.

"How does Wenjun plan to raise grain and grass and plant millet?" Wang Chong asked cautiously.

"Well, the village has already collected it once. If you ask someone to invest again, it will be a bit unkind. Alas." Wen Chou frowned and said. After thinking about it, he said, "As for millet seeds, it's simple. I'll just invest and buy some."

"Oh, Wen Jun's words are also in love. Ordinary people do not have much surplus food, so they should not disturb them. However, the rich families in the village have a lot of hoarding, so they can start from now on." Wang Chong thought for a while. The village master was the first lieutenant in charge of taxes and knew the wealth of each household in the village. But that's the case, he was a little bolder. Isn't this just suggesting Wen Chou to take the rich family's surname? If it spreads, it will offend those people severely.

Wen Zhaowenyan couldn't help but look at Wang Chong in surprise, not expecting that he would dare to say such words. After pondering for a moment, he did not object or agree. He thought to himself: "I also want to start with the wealthy family, but the Lin family was destroyed just now, and Wen Ji's family was defeated. If he finds trouble for the wealthy family, it will probably cause panic and will be extremely unfavorable to future management!"

Seeing Wen Chou's sad look, Wang Chong didn't dare to speak, but he didn't dare to talk. He was even more nervous. He thought to himself: "According to my observations in recent days, Wen Jun is kind to poor people and does not like to gather wealthy families. Therefore, he has this statement, but after seeing his uncertain face after hearing this, wasn't it because I misread it?"

"Brother, either call us and get a few more stones." Wenba Ce immediately stepped forward and said.

"Oh, Ziyong, I feel ashamed of having disturbed the people of the people since Duke Du summoned me. I really can't speak out!" Wen Chou sighed.

"What can you say, but you can't speak. I want me to say, we are all children of the Wen family, and the villagers will not blame you!" Wenba said carelessly.

"It's really a lack of human heart to swallow an elephant!" Wen Chou couldn't help but mutter to himself in a sad mood. He thought to himself: "If you comfort the refugees less, you won't be so embarrassed! They are all thinking about the chaotic autumn. The more people, the better. Of course, this idea is also good, but you must have enough food for these people to live in! Otherwise, wouldn't it be just empty talk?"

"Well,... the human heart... the tongue swallowed the country?" Wenba asked in a question as he heard this sentence.

"It's nothing, let's go. First go to the official temple and ask the county for some. If it doesn't work, then think of another way! There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally be straight when it reaches the bridge!" Wen Chou did not need to explain it to him, so he hurriedly said.

"There must be a road before the car arrives at the mountain, and the boat will naturally be straight when it reaches the bridge!" Wang Chong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he thought to himself: "Although this is not a masterpiece, it can be said to be a common saying, proverb, but the truth is an open-minded and calm attitude!"

The great fu was popular in the Han Dynasty. Poetry was just in its infancy, and even poetry was mostly four-character poems, not to mention seven-character poems. Five-character poems were developed and promoted by Cao Cao, Cao Pi, and Cao Zhi, who were known as the "Three Caos" in the history of literature. They were only widely circulated and further became the main literary style for the time.

Wen Chou and his party rushed back to Guan Temple and discussed with the assistants who stayed behind Guan Temple. The following plan was made: First, go to the county and ask for help, second, mobilize villagers to raise funds again, of course, the key is to make refugees, dig ditches to benefit farming, and receive food according to labor. Fourth, if the county purchase reward comes, it will not be distributed for the time being, and use it to purchase food near the county.

In this way, Wen Chou wrote three consecutive letters, which detailed the current situation and difficulties of Shahe Township. He sealed them and ordered people to send them to the county, county and Du Yi office in Luancheng respectively!

Wen Chou's words were extremely tactful in Du Yi's letter. After all, it was inconvenient when Du Yi took office. Wen Chou and others stood at the gate of the courtyard and saw the three riders gradually moving away, and they were silent for a while. I don't know if I could ask for some, but in short, hope had been let go.

Not to mention Wen Chou and others are standing quietly at the gate of the courtyard. Just talk about the fact that Wen Chou was so excited that he went to the Taolin Shed, and returned in a hurry and was frowning all the way. The scene that happened in the Taolin Porridge Shed quickly spread throughout Shahe Township. It would be fine for ordinary people to be honest. Even if they were grateful to Wen Chou's kindness, they were unable to do so, and it was difficult for them to fill their own house, let alone others.

But people with rich families are different. Most people who hear about this matter will hurry to send some young people to extract one or two hundred stones of fine grain and send it to the official temple. Instead of waiting for Wen Chou to come to ask for it, it is better to send it in person. One way or another, it seems that it is good at doing things, and the other way is to show kindness.

Shortly after Wen Chou and others stood at the gate of the courtyard, the food and supplies from the rich family in the village were delivered. Everyone was amazed, and then people drove one after another.

It is not too much to say too much, and it is not too little to say too little. There are about 1,500 stones of food and grass in the front and back. This makes Wen Chou laugh and cry for a while. Don't want it for nothing. Besides, if you don't want someone's family, it will make the family feel uneasy. Therefore, they all encouraged and asked for some questions before they could let these young people return.

Not only did he bring food and grass, but he also solved the problem of millet. Wen Chou was naturally overjoyed and changed his gloomy look when he returned.

"It seems that Mr. Wen has established his kindness in the village! It's a happy congratulation." Wang Chong looked at the side room full of food and bowed his hand.

"Congratulations to Wenjun!"

"Mr. Wen is so powerful that I admire you!"

"I am not as good as both literary and military!"

...

At the beginning of Wang Chong, the local officials bowed and praised each other. Wen Chou replied to the gifts one by one, saying that he didn't dare to take it, thanks to your strength!

Seeing that the millet seeds had been resolved, Wen Chou did not delay, so he hurriedly sought people, stopped the equipment, and sent them to the peach forest porridge shed, and distributed them. It also caused rumors: "All refugees who want to settle down can make a living can sow grains, and cultivate them according to the wastelands divided in the township, and then cultivate them by themselves!" He also said: "Disclaimers do not need to worry about the food problem before harvest, because after sowing, the township will mobilize the people to dig ditches and water conservancy, and all active participants will have something to eat!"
