The mobility of the population is very strong in troubled times. In order to survive, people will keep migrating until they find a foothold.

Then continue to live, multiply, and work.

But people are also loyal at the same time. They are loyal to their homes and the land where they work hard.

The word "home", in addition to family, is also the endorsement of the house.

When the "loan" comes out, people will stay there if they can buy a house.

The people are the foundation of a city, and even a country.

Lin Yuan thought of many ways, and even hollowed out the granaries of big households and the court in the early stage, so that the people would have confidence in him.

It is not easy to balance revenue and expenditure by relying on taxes alone. The taxes that Lin Yuan now collects together are only one-third of the initial investment.

But after all there was a gain, Lin Yuan was not too relieved.

He stayed in Gaoyou for three years. During these three years, Gaoyou has been turned into a city that belongs to him. The rules are set by him, and people's living habits are changed by him. Lin Yuan experimented and adjusted his direction , Until the outcome of each move is close to his expectations.

In the spring of the sixteenth year, Lin Yuan left Gaoyou and went to Pingjiang. The people saw them off along the road. Some people even dragged their families to follow Lin Yuan’s motorcade and wanted to follow Lin Yuan to Pingjiang. Lin Yuan’s motorcade was there. The gangsters dare not move them.

Lin Yuan also knew that Zhang Shicheng went to Pingjiang from Gaoyou in history and made Pingjiang the capital. In the following year, the Miao general of the Yuan army defeated Zhang Shide's brother Zhang Shide. Zhang Shide was escorted to Nanjing and died on a hunger strike.

But going to Pingjiang is Lin Yuan's best choice now.

The Miao general of the Yuan Army was a tragic figure. His original name was Yang Tongguan. After defeating Zhang Shicheng, he was not only promoted, but was also bestowed by Emperor Yuan Shun. He was first the leader of the peasant uprising and was later recruited as an official. At first he was just a thousand households. The highest official title is Marshal.

In the end he died, no matter how powerful he was on the battlefield, he was forced to hang himself in the end.

People always decide their heads by their butts, and standing on the court is holding high the banner of orthodoxy.

Standing on the side of the rebels is calling for orders for the people.

Most of the truths in this world are not black and white, but the big men turn the truth in their minds, and what they say becomes black and white again.

This time, it was Chen Baisong who escorted Lin Yuan to Pingjiang. Chen Baisong rode a horse, and Lin Yuan rode a carriage-he didn't want to try the feeling of thighs worn out, so he indulged himself once in a while.

But at this time, the roads are all dirt roads, even the official roads in the past are full of mud pits. Sitting on the carriage, Lin Yuan is stunned, and he is afraid of pulling down the journey. He is in the carriage. Take it alone.

Chen Baisong was still talking to him by the carriage, which made him extremely uncomfortable.

Lin Yuan: "...When you get there... I'll talk to you again."

He was really vomiting.

Chen Baisong could only shut up and escorted Lin Yuan over quietly all the way.

Lin Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he arrived at the gate of Pingjiang City. Pingjiang was down for less than a year, and Chen Baisong was in charge of almost all of the year. All the generals in Lin Yuan's hand controlled the army by tiger charms. Soldiers He only recognized tiger symbols but not people. Chen Baisong didn't know how to manage people, so he stationed the barracks in Pingjiang.

Lin Yuan thinks this is a good way.

Without too many twists and turns, it's bigger than anyone's fist.

Chen Baisong did not care about the matter, and asked the original officials and officials to take care of them. Faced with huge fists, these people did not dare to give birth to any other thoughts. Instead, they did things well, so Pingjiang changed the owner for one year. What has happened.

Pingjiang is richer than Gaoyou. This wealth is reflected in the small people. Even if the refugees are endless and the disasters continue, but the people of Pingjiang have not been hungry-but their food storage is almost empty, and the money has bottomed out. Now, if it's a little bit later, then maybe the next thing will happen.

Compared with other places, Pingjiang is not too chaotic. People live and work in peace and contentment, but life is harder than before.

There are also many scholars in Pingjiang. This is where the money is. People with money can afford to train scholars.

It is like a poor town in the mountains, and with the power of a family, it is forbidden to train a scholar.

Lin Yuan went directly to the government office. It was cleaned daily and it was well maintained. People filed in and started decorating the government office according to Lin Yuan’s habits and hobbies. He even brought Lin Yuan’s favorite paperweight and lantern cover. Lin Yuan loves to see the patterns on the picture. In short, the government office has changed drastically after a day. Looking at this high efficiency, Lin Yuan has to admit that capitalism is corroding people's hearts and he will be corroded thoroughly.

——Although he is not on the path of capitalism.

——

"Master Zhang." The little official caught up with the person in front of him and followed him three steps behind him.

The person called Master Zhang was originally just a petty official. He belongs to the kind of unregulated person. He has no real power, no right to speak, and no access to Pingjiang's core political group.

Now that Ping Jiang has fallen into the hands of the anti-thief, he has the opportunity to perform.

Master Zhang laughed at the little official. He got up early, and at this time he was still holding a biscuits made by his wife. There was meat in it. He ate while walking, barely mixing half full. He didn’t dare to eat too full today. Otherwise, the stomach is not comfortable when discussing matters, it is really indecent, and it may be contemptuous.

The little official smelled the scent of cooking cakes and swallowed gluttonously. He ate a bun in the morning. He thought he was full but he smelled the meat again.

"I don't know where the gods came." The little official sucked, and asked a little strangely, "The adults were told to go with us."

How can an official and a small official be in the same room for discussion?That's not too particular.

Master Zhang chuckled and said, "The Nan Bodhisattva of Gaoyou is here now."

Xiaoli: "That's incredible!"

They have all heard of the name of Gaoyou Nan Bodhisattva, which is very popular among the people.

A little ignorant, sincerely believe that the South Bodhisattva is a god.

Those who are more lucid, naturally know that this is just a means, but those who are lucid will not say it.

So the stupid is even more stupid.

The son does not talk strangely.

Among the ancients, there were actually atheists.

But only those who read poems and books well and have high ideological consciousness may become atheists.

It is impossible for ordinary people.

The little official said excitedly: "I heard that the Nan Bodhisattva can bless men to make meritorious services. I offered a deity at home. Now that the real body is here, I have to knock my head a few times."

Master Zhang smiled, looking like a nice man.

What is the fun of being alone when everyone is drunk?Might as well get drunk together.

The little official turned his head and glanced: "Isn't that Master Zheng? What wind is blowing today, it actually blows all the adults."

This Master Zheng is notoriously slippery, not doing business, unwilling to offend people, sleek, and corrupt with the previous Shangguan, he was pretty beautiful when he was a worm, and then the Shangguan fell, went to do other things, and talked to colleagues I get together, push my own business to my colleagues, and go to meet each other every day, and my life is very relaxing.

Basically, he flees as long as he can. If he sounds good, he doesn't want fame and fortune. If he sounds bad, he is unwilling to take responsibility and cannot bear the burden.

Said it was the Nenchen?The only way to curry favor with the boss is to flatter.

Said it was Chunchen?He can't do it again.

When Mr. Zheng said these three words, everyone knew who it was, even if he was more than one named Zheng among the officials.

Lord Zhang continued to be happy.

Seeing the little official's incomprehensible expression, Zhang Dahua answered his questions: "Today's morning meeting, Nan Bodhisattva is coming."

The small official's eyes widened and his mouth was so big that he could swallow a fist. He blushed: "Come today? I, I haven't changed into new clothes! Hey! Will I have time to go back now?"

Master Zhang looked at him.

The little official tapped his mouth lightly: "I am confused again."

The so-called morning meeting is a new rule after Chen Baisong took over Pingjiang.

Officials will report on the work of the previous day at the morning meeting, what they have done, what they have summed up, and what needs to be analyzed and helped.

This method is indeed effective. Officials can't talk, they can only raise questions honestly and solve them.

After all, there are records of small officials next to it.

These records will eventually be summarized on Lin Yuan's case.

Although the court fell, they still had to eat and dress, serve their parents, and raise children.

Master Zhang glanced at Master Zheng who was walking not far away, and he was not without envy in his heart.

Everyone said Master Zheng was a strange official, but they had to admit that Master Zheng lived better than most people.

It's a strange person to be so lazy that he can make him a personal mark.

They walked into the mansion through the side door and found that the people of the mansion seemed to have changed a group of people. Compared with the original people, they looked more orderly, with no expression on their faces, neither flattery nor closeness. It feels even a little rusty and cold, but the actions and behaviors are carried with full respect, and the actions are vigorous and vigorous, and there is more than one, but they are all like this.

Master Zhang looked away-don't think about things that shouldn't be him.

The servants took them to the cleaned up hall. Lin Yuan was already sitting high, with chairs placed horizontally under his head. It was just like a meeting. It was indeed a meeting. Lin Yuan didn’t have much time to get to know these officials, so he could only use Such simple violent means to understand them.

Lin Yuan saw that the people were almost there, so he said, "Starting from here, we will continue to talk about what we have done during this period of time, what troubles we have encountered, how to solve them, and what experience we have gained."

Everyone in the audience, look at me and I look at you: "..."

South Bodhisattva!Do you really not give us time to be official?We are all ready!

Lin Yuan asked strangely: "Why? Can't understand what I'm saying? Go from here to the right and say in turn?"

Is this group of people indifferent?

Not so?How do they become officials?Is it so demanding?
