Xu Laoer snorted and said: "My uncle will verify this matter. If it turns out that you are talking nonsense, humph..."
"Students absolutely dare not lie!"
Bai Jin almost swore to the sky.
Xu Laoer waved his hand in disgust and asked Bai Jin to be taken away.
"Thank you Uncle Yongwu for not killing me."
Bai Jin was really relieved when he saw that Xu Laoer didn't let anyone kill him.
In his opinion, since he had escaped, it meant that his life should be saved. Of course, he would still have to survive until he could finally save his life.
After all, you only have one life, and if it's gone, it's really gone.
He followed Song Dahu and accumulated a huge amount of wealth.
Song Dahu was defeated and he was tied to Xu Laoer. All the gold, silver and jewelry around him seemed to have been taken away. But he had planned this from the very beginning.
It looked like a lot of gold, silver and jewelry were confiscated from him, but it was only a small half of the wealth he had amassed. He hid the bulk of it all the way.
As long as he can save his life, he can take out the hidden gold and silver and live his own luxurious life.
Unfortunately, Bai Jin didn't know that Xu Laoer had no intention of letting him go from the beginning.
Just to achieve the goal of winning over people's hearts, Xu Laoer also planned to carefully plan how to send this dog-headed military advisor on his way. After all, there are really not many ready-made good targets for winning people's hearts.
If he had followed Xu Laoer's previous thoughts, he would have just killed all the leaders of this gang. After all, none of them were good.
But now the situation is really not good.
How could Song Dahu quickly pull together such a large team? Although many people were coerced, there were also many people who really followed Song Dahu on the road to rebellion.
Why rebel? Of course it’s because I really can’t live anymore.
During the two-year famine, instead of doing much to provide disaster relief, the local government continued to impose exorbitant taxes and levies. The arrival of this locust plague is undoubtedly the straw that breaks the camel's back.
Therefore, the people of Qiping Mansion and even some of the town troops directly committed the crime.
Otherwise, based on the influence of the locust plague alone, how could this civil uprising sweep across the entire Qiping Mansion in such a short period of time
Ultimately, I still can’t survive.
Xu Laoer came to quell the rebellion. Although he didn't kill many people, he still made the people of Qiping Mansion dissatisfied with his arrival.
If Xu Laoer hadn't blocked the Northern Barbarians at the Huangfeng Pass last year, killed two young Northern Barbarian princes, and captured the Northern Barbarian King alive, the prestige of capturing the Northern Barbarian King alive would have been too frightening, and the people of Qiping Mansion would never have been as peaceful as they are now.
But before coming, Mr. Xu told Mr. Xu that he must act cautiously and be more cautious when dealing with the people of Qiping Mansion.
With his father's explanation, Xu Laoer arrived at Qiping Mansion and released his manpower to secretly inquire about the people's sentiments. Only then did he understand the true thoughts of the people in Qiping Mansion.
In order to ensure that the Qiping Mansion was completely pacified, Xu Laoer chose to defeat Song Dahu in one go and kill the opponent without leaving any room.
Otherwise, it would not be difficult for Xu Laoer to capture Song Dahu alive.
After defeating the revolutionary army, Xu Laoer immediately asked people to take out military supplies to help the victims.
After being blocked by Xu Laosan's sea of fire, the revolutionary army in Qiping Mansion was unable to get food supplies. Originally relying on the support of the Jie Luck Dao, Song Dahu had stored a lot of food in his hands, but without food replenishment, the people in the people's revolutionary army had to endure one porridge a day.
The locust plague passed through the country, and everything that could be eaten by the locusts was eaten to pieces.
If it were a normal disaster year, the people would be short of food and would still be able to find some wild vegetables and fruits to satisfy their hunger. But now, wherever the locust plague passes, not a single blade of grass is left.
"They are all idiots!"
Thinking that some people thought Song Dahu and Bai Jin were good people, Xu Laoer felt a big headache.
But he really can't come up with any particularly reliable evidence to prove that they are bad guys. Although a lot of gold and silver jewelry were found from Song Dahu and the others, Song Dahu and the others had been buying grain. The existence of these gold and silver jewelry could not convict Song Dahu and others.
"Uncle, there is a letter from Third Master!"
Just when Xu Lao Er was feeling depressed, a personal guard arrived in a hurry and delivered a letter written by Xu Lao San.
Xu Laoer quickly tore open the envelope and unfolded the letter paper inside.
After he read this letter from Xu Laosan, Xu Laoer was happy.
"Wonderful, wonderful, he is my uncle's brother after all, he is just so smart!"
The depressed look on Xu Laoer's face disappeared.
He immediately called people over and asked them to draft a notice.
The content of the notice is very simple, that is, to recruit people to mine in Xiangyi Prefecture.
The mineral resources map that Fubao obtained showed that there are many coal mines in Xiangyi Prefecture, and although there are minerals in Qiping Prefecture, they are iron mines that are of little use for the time being.
If it is wartime, iron is indispensable.
But in this situation, a cold winter is coming, and what the people need is warm clothes and charcoal fires. Otherwise, when this cold winter comes, I don’t know how many people will freeze to death.
"Go and pass the notice down!"
After the notice was written, Xu Laoer immediately asked someone to put it up.
The content of the notice is also simple. Anyone who goes mining will directly give the other person's family a hundred catties of food and two taels of silver. This is money and food for Anjia!
Don't look at it, the money and food are not much, but for the people of Qiping Mansion, this is life-saving money and food.
In fact, if it were not for the purpose of restoring order in Qiping Mansion as soon as possible and allowing businessmen from other places to come in, Xu Laoer would have planned to give them all food instead of money.
Today's Qiping Mansion is truly a blank slate.
Locust plagues, civil unrest, the huge Qiping Mansion, and many county towns have become empty cities.
Those shops were all looted along the way by the revolutionary army.
It can be said that the current Qiping Mansion has undergone a thorough cleaning.
After the notice was posted, the lifeless people in Qiping Mansion became very happy.
With a hundred catties of grain and two taels of silver, how many people would not be tempted by such money and food
If there are many men in the family, if they can go mining, they may harvest hundreds of kilograms of grain at once. This much food is enough for the whole family to survive the whole winter.
What's more, people who work are paid every month.
Wages are not fixed, but are determined based on the amount of mining. As long as you are strong and work a lot, it's really hard to say how much money you can make in this month.
Of course, not all families still have men. Some unfortunate families only have old, weak, women and children left.
This is a bit difficult to handle! (End of chapter)
