Chapter 898 The people are precious(2/3)
As soon as the small army moves, the food and grass will be fired first!
Alang was angry in his heart,
When he arrived at the Jiedu envoy's residence, Wang Hua brought officials to greet him.
The officials lined up in a row, looking at the dusty boss, and followed Wang Hua to salute:
"I have met the Duke,"
Alang nodded, "Thank you for your hard work,"
Then he left the small hall,
Wang Huajie introduced some things that happened before I left:
"...we were guarding our side there, but there was a lot of slack here in Bei Liao. Song Gong said that we should keep some slack and clean it up before the rest come back. I thought so, and it made sense."
Alang nodded slightly to Song Zhen,
There is something wrong with that way of handling it.
Sure enough, professionals still rely on humor,
I thought of Luo Cai,
If Lao Luo comes over, there will be no one to visit him.
But, when will the emperor abandon Lao Luo?
"... Nangui City and Oubei City were both attacked, but Guo Siwen and Cao Ying were quite stable."
"The next thing you need to do is prepare to collect grain. Let's see how Zitai does it."
Alang rubbed his heart and said, "For newly cultivated fields, taxes will be collected for eight years. That is an iron rule. After eight years, the people will have no savings. That is a good thing."
An official said: "My lord, you can lower the price of grain harvest. After all, we are also in trouble!"
"yes!"
"The prince's kindness is to collect taxes, but we should also be considerate of Helian's beaches,"
Yuan An's face gradually became cold and indifferent,
The sound disappeared,
The officials felt uneasy because they knew where they had offended their bosses.
"The most taboo thing for politicians is to change orders from day to day!"
Yuan An felt that there was no point in his command, so there was no need to beat him.
"Today we say we are collecting taxes, and tomorrow we will lower prices to buy food from the people. You know, once that decree reaches the local government, these officials will intensify their efforts to exploit the people, for example."
Yuan An stretched out a finger and said, "You set a price of ten cents per stone for purchasing grain. The officials above dared to say it was four cents. Four cents. Do the people dare to resist? Yes, so everyone seemed a little angry.
,"
No one was embarrassed,
The dramas that have been piled up layer by layer have all been corrected. After a while, we have to correct the source.
Of course, this means that everyone is motivated by corruption, less so for political achievements and to better fulfill the orders of subordinate officials.
"It seems like a small and angry situation, but there is an undercurrent surging above. Wait until next year, you say, go to open up wasteland! Eight years is to pay taxes, he waits and talks, but few people will believe it?"
Alang looked at the officials and felt that those people had been separated from the common people for too long.
"When the time comes, Helian's army attacks Neizhou and needs immigrants. You promised to collect taxes for eight years, and also guaranteed that Neizhou would not be invaded by the Northern Liao Dynasty. Who would believe it?"
Alang pointed at the case with his fingers and stared at the officials, "Without the trust of the people, your decree will be difficult to implement! If he waits, it will become empty words, trivial words, and lies."
I pointed to my temple, "What is your Helian's foundation? It's a weak army, it's the officials who are relatively bright in the pass, but it's the people!"
"Win the trust of the people, and the people will be your helpers. A healthy army comes from the people, abundant money and food come from the people, and the implementation of various government orders does not depend on the people. The people are the foundation of your company!"
I stood up and said, "Tell Helian about the official update."
Whoosh!
Everyone stood up and bowed slightly,
Alang said anxiously: "It's hard to win the trust of the people, but it takes only one night to keep the trust of the people. Whoever wants to destroy your Yuan An's foundation will destroy my future!"
"Take your orders!"
Yuan An raised his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Liu, go back and take a look first."
Song Zhen went out with me,
"How was your trip to Chang'an?"
"It went quite smoothly,"
A Lang remembered something, "How come the officials are so respectful to you? Are you a tiger? Looking at you, I don't even have any fear."
Song Zhen smiled, "We, Little V, have all read history books. How many times have droughts in the past dynasties been able to survive so smoothly?"
"At least not a few times!" Yuan An said humbly,
"Does He know what we most fear Him for?"
Alang shook his head.
"} Ever since he was promoted to official position in Chenzhou, he has been working tirelessly to build roads and water conservancy projects without interruption. This is something that has never happened before.
No one told me anymore. At first everyone said he was crazy about road construction and just wanted to look at the narrow path and feel comfortable.
As for the newly built water conservancy project, Yuan An was already short of water, so why did he do it?
But when the drought hit, money, food and materials allocated from various places flew to the place along these narrow paths:
And the water conservancy projects built in previous years have made it possible to dig some ditches everywhere to quickly relieve the disaster, Zitai, "
"You said."
"No one even complained that he was using Mingzhu's tricks," Song Zhen looked at me, "If he hadn't sworn to betray Xiao Tang in this life, I would have believed that he was..."
"What is it?"
"No destiny,"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Yuan An waved his hand and left,
Yang Xuanou happened to be on duty, "Lang Jun!"
"Lotus root!"
Yang Xuanlian followed, "Before Lang Jun left, there were not more than ten officials who were safe, and a small number of them were in collusion with the powerful and weak."
"Keep an eye on it. If you commit any crime, you will be punished."
"yes."
"By the way, he said that everyone in his family was killed..."
"They were all killed,"
At this time, Yang Xuanliang was just a child drowned in nudity.
"When you came back, you met a woman who you said was his maid,"
Yang Xuanou stopped and was startled, "Isn't there anyone in your house?"
Immediately, you explained, "Lang Jun, you know this person well."
"He thinks less," Alang said with a smile,
Yuan Anou stood there and watched Ruo Alang come out of the small door.
Waiter?
Who is it?
A guard led Northern Xinjiang back,
Beijiang looked at Yang Xuanou carelessly,
"^Back away and talk."
It is convenient for outsiders to come and go.
Beijiang followed you out of the check-in room,
Yang Xuanou sat down and looked at Northern Xinjiang.
"Commander Yang Xuan, this person is called Beijiang. He is said to be his family's servant. The horse thief wants to come with you to redeem the Yang Xuanluo brothers and sisters..."
After the introduction of the guards, they came in.
He also closed the door considerately.
The light in the room dimmed,
To be continued...
