Chapter 82 New Questions
The person Tao Yuanming recommended to Lu Qiang is Yan Yanzhi. He has a poor family and has studied poetry since he was a child. Because of his cold background, he has never been able to become an official.
Lu Qiang suddenly found that those who are willing to study hard are almost all children of poor families. It's not that the children of rich families refuse to work hard, but just a person's good or bad background, which can easily affect his ambition.
Children from rich families can't be hungry if they don't work hard. Children from poor families are different. If he wants to change the status quo, he must make more efforts than others.
This is the reality.
Yan Yanzhi didn't say much. Lu Qiang talked to him for a few words and didn't find anything special, but he thought it was recommended by Tao Yuanming. It can't be wrong.
The facts are really as Lu Qiang thought. In just a few days, Yanzhi was familiar with the affairs of the Assassin Mansion and the responsibilities of the long history, and worked vigorously, thus greatly reducing the pressure on Lu Qiang and enabling him to do other things separately.
Lu Qiang needs people who talk more and less, and Yan Yanzhi is undoubtedly what he is looking for.
It is said that if you are not at home, you don't know that firewood and rice are expensive. Lu Qiang now deeply understands the meaning of this sentence.
After Huan Wei's sweep, Jingzhou is already devastated. As the new governor of Jingzhou, the first thing to do is to calm the hearts of the people and resume production.
These things are easy to say, but difficult to do. Although counties under Jingzhou have expressed their obedience to Lu Qiang's command, such obedience also comes at a price.
The houses destroyed by the war need to be rebuilt, the cultivated land needs grain, the damaged government houses need to be repaired, the destroyed walls need to be repaired, etc...
Finance, material resources, manpower... These are all problems that need to be solved urgently. Now there are county officials who go to the Assassin's Office to complain and ask for the allocation of materials almost every day.
Fortunately, there are Wang Zhenvil, Tao Yuanming, Yan Yanzhi and others, otherwise Lu Qiang, who has a little political experience, must be driven crazy by them.
However, Lu Qiang has not managed government affairs, which does not mean that he does not understand at all, and he is often accompanied by Yan Yan. He has smelled a trace of conspiracy.
The world has not been peaceful in recent years. It is impossible for counties not to encounter such a military disaster or man-made disaster. So how did they get here before? Don't they have any way to save themselves?
Lu Qiang doesn't need to worry about the allocation of disaster relief materials, but if it goes on like this, the family background left by Huan Xuan is not enough to toss around and must have another idea.
According to the appearance of early morning in his memory, Lu Qiang's first thing every day is to call everyone to hold a meeting, study the past gains and losses, and deploy today's work. After a period of time, everyone is not only used to this way, but also recognizes Lu Qiang's diligent attitude.
Now it seems that the restructuring of the army is the most stable. After several generals report the current situation and training of the barracks, it is time for Wang Zhenvil and others to talk about government affairs.
This is a process of daily meetings, and today is no exception.
After the previous generals finished speaking, Zhou Kui made his last speech. He had nothing else to do, but hoped to get a war horse as soon as possible and complete 3,000 iron horses. Now there are only 2,000 horses in the cavalry battalion. In order to make 3,000 people familiar with cavalry operations, they have to train in turn.
Lu Qiang has nothing to do about this matter for the time being. Liu Sinu has been out for some days and hasn't sent back any good news yet, so she can only wait.
Tao Yuanming is in charge of Jiangling, and the counties under his rule are still stable, and there is no phenomenon of asking for money and things every day. However, as the core subordinate of Lu Qiang, he also knows that the treasury can't stand the toss.
"Your Excellency, I feel that the current situation is purely man-made. Obviously, some county guards are watching, and some are gloating from the disaster, so my subordinates propose to replace some county magistrates so that our new policy can be implemented smoothly."
Wang Zhen's evil also tends to solve it by force. After listening to Tao Yuanming's words, he immediately nodded and agreed.
Lu Qiang looked at Yan Yanzhi, who had never spoken and said, "What does Yannian think of this matter?"
"Adults are dedicated to benefiting the people, and their subordinates feel that the strategy is good. The key lies in these officials, and we are not three heads and six arms, and it is impossible for them to supervise so well, so they are given an opportunity to feel that if all the people know that adults have taken the land of the Huan family and those who support the Huan family. The land of the rich families has also been divided into ordinary people, so what will ordinary people think?
Yan Yanzhi's words made Lu Qiang's mind shine. In this era, the information is underdeveloped, and even many people have never left the land he lives. The biggest official they have seen is probably the county official, so what the county official says is, and they don't know the specific policies of the court at all.
This is what modern people often say that there are policies and countermeasures.
What will they think if those ordinary people know the benefits they deserve but are detained by the local government? What kind of reaction will there be?
In today's society, the warriors and gates stand side by side, and most of the land is in their hands, and they don't have to pay taxes. All the taxes of the government are pressed on ordinary people, and the burdened people either become their peasants, or they have to sell themselves as slaves, which is the main source of the endless rebellion. Because.
This is like a pile of dry wood. As long as there is a little spark, it can ignite a blazing fire. It's just that Jingzhou has decided that there will never be any more trouble, so this matter must have a degree.
After a moment of meditation, he said, "Let's go here today!"
Hearing Lu Qiang's announcement of the meeting, everyone got up and saluted and left.
Yan Yanzhi did not leave. After everyone dispersed, he said, "Your excellency has made a plan?"
Lu Qiang nodded slightly and said, "This matter needs an opportunity. Then I will appoint you as a supervisor to inspect counties and counties, and at the same time with an army. You must solve this matter in the shortest time."
"I understand"
Yan Yanzhi did not ask what the opportunity was for Lu Qiang to point out. They have become more and more confident in this young commander.
Lu Qiang sat alone in the hall, thought about his own method, and then called Wang Kai in. After explaining, he asked him to take someone to do it immediately.
The land problem has been a big problem in all dynasties. If you are not careful, there will be a lot of chaos. Jingzhou's approach can only be used as an experimental point to test the reaction of Jingzhou scholars and rich families. If everything goes well, it will definitely go further and further with the footsteps of Lu Qiang.
A slight footsteps sounded after himself. Lu Qiang knew that it was Chunlan without looking back. When he was in the discussion, no one was allowed to disturb him. The two girl, such as Chunlan and Dongmei, were no exception. This clever girl must have known that there was no one inside before she came in.
Lu Qiang is almost full, and the whole family is not hungry, so there are always two maids in the backyard, and no one has been recruited. The guards in the front yard have several servants to take care of their food.
The two maids did not know that they were buying and never allowed others to enter the backyard. Lu Qiang was more thoughtful and did not think about other places.
"Master, you see, I went to have someone modify it, are you still satisfied?"
Chunlan said and unfolded the scroll in her hand in front of Lu Qiang.
With the unfolding of the picture scroll, a palace beauty leaps into the painting, with a graceful figure and picturesque eyebrows, but who else is not loved by Wang Shen?
I don't know how many times this has been modified. Every time Chunlan brought it back to show it to Lu Qiang, Lu Qiang always felt that something was missing.
When he saw this painting again today, Lu Qiang knew that the previous paintings were all missing a charm and lacked the flexible temperament of Wang Shenai.
Of course, ancient scrolls cannot be compared with modern photos, but they are more rustic.
Lu Qiang is busy every day and doesn't care about other things at all. The only thing he has always been thinking about building an ancestral hall for Wang Shenai.
Looking at the fairy-like jade man in the painting, a trace of gly flashed in Lu Qiang's heart. Time may change many things, but it has never changed his deep love for Wang Shen.
Now Lu Qiang will no longer easily show his feelings, even in front of the closest Chunlan and Dongmei.
"Let the painter draw a picture in the ancestral hall, and this one is hung in my room"
Chunlan answered gently and secretly looked at Lu Qiang with a slightly haggard face. She couldn't help saying, "Master, I stewed black chicken ginseng soup for you. Do you want me to bring it to you?"
Lu Qiang, who was still immersed in the painting, didn't know what he thought of. There was a smile at the corners of his mouth. Then he shook his head and gave the painting to Chunlan, but he didn't hear what Chunlan had just said.
Chunlan bit her lip and said reluctantly, "Master, you need to rest more. If you go on like this, you will be tired."
Is that girl not pregnant? Although they know that Lu Qiang remembers the former mistress, how can they be girls for a lifetime? Especially a hero like the master, I'm afraid a woman won't let go of it.
Lu Qiang doesn't understand the thoughts of the two girls, but he is too busy now. In addition, how long has it been since Wang Shenai passed away? He can't let him accept other women in such a short time.
stood up, raised his hand and rubbed Chunlan's hair affectionately, and said with a smile, "Your master is a military physique. Go ahead! I have something else to do"
Although Lu Qiang's behavior is intimate, the little girl is not ungrateful, because Lu Qiang's attitude towards them is more like a little sister than a woman.
As if to cooperate with Lu Qiang, the bodyguard came in and bowed and said, "Your Excellency, the Guangling Jiang brothers are looking for a meeting"
They are finally here.
It has always been Lu Qiang's dream to form a strong sailor. He is waiting for Jiang Xiaoyu like the stars and the moon. Now it is said that the Jiang brothers came together and immediately greeted them out happily.
Jiang Dalong has a life-saving kindness to him, and he will never forget it.
Looking at the owner's back, Chunlan's little girl's eyebrows and eyes are full of resentment. If Lu Qiang pays attention to it, he will definitely find that the little girl is becoming more and more feminine.
