After rebirth, the eldest princess ascended the throne by barrage

Chapter 41 Evacuation of the People
As soon as his words fell, a black and strong man jumped out and questioned: "It's a beautiful day, why is there such a flood! What kind of farming does the prefect know? How long has it been since it rained? The drought is almost the same, why? There might be a flood!"

Like him, there are many doubtful people in the village, and one after another, someone stepped forward and asked:
"Yeah, yeah, why is there a flood? Besides, what to eat and where to live in the county town? Could it be possible to drink the northwest wind and sleep on the street?"

"Yes, yes, there is still work at home, so I can't leave!"

"My lord, you can't make fun of this! We have managed to get some divine food seeds, so we have to plant them quickly!"

After the potatoes were harvested, most of them were purchased by the government and sent to the granary, while a small part was reserved as seeds and grain for farmers to plant and eat.

The little leader who led the officers and soldiers to supervise the evacuation of the villagers suddenly felt a headache. He used to be an ordinary farmer, so he naturally knew what they were thinking.

"This is an order from the county magistrate. Don't worry about the place where you live. A temporary residence has been set up outside the county seat. You can live there when you go."

"Don't worry about the food issue. Our Princess Protector said that the divine food harvested a few days ago will be taken out for everyone to eat..."

"As for the work in the field...how did the adults sent by the capital teach it? The land that has been planted with divine food cannot continue to be planted. One season of rice or vegetables must be planted, otherwise the fertile land will become wasteland and the production of divine food will also decrease! "

In fact, it is not so serious, but if it is not serious, there will always be people who plant regardless of the soil.

After the little boss finished speaking, someone's eyes flickered, obviously preparing to continue planting.

"Also, there will be floods here. An old Taoist priest told the princess protector and the county governor. According to the grandson of my elder brother's brother-in-law's aunt's neighbor's neighbor, the old Taoist priest was transformed by a god and came down to earth on purpose. Come to save us, I heard that after finishing speaking that day, it turned into white smoke and disappeared!"

As soon as these words came out, the already shaken heart became even more unstable.

The people in Luowu County value Taoism, and Taoist priests are respected here. There are even more Taoist temples than temples. Some people speculate whether they value Taoism, so there are Taoist priests who have become gods to save them?
Someone began to say: "I'm moving, the adults will definitely not lie to us people, if there is a flood, it will be terrible!"

"Yes, yes, I heard that the dam closest to Luowu City collapsed. It must have been a warning from the heavens. Otherwise, Luowu Dam has only been built for less than ten years, how could it have collapsed!"

People have a herd mentality. When one person moves, a group of people follow. Most of the villagers said that they would go home and pack their things immediately, but a small number of people did not agree.

Especially those with a lot of wealth at home, after they turned and left, they gathered together and whispered.

"What are these old men going to do? The sun is so big and the weather is good, but they say there will be floods!"

The leader of the rich household in the village snorted coldly and said: "Now the officials want to come out as soon as they come out. They just want to shave the people's fat and face, and they just want to make a big splash."

"Which dynasty and generation of the royal family is not greedy? From my point of view, the Princess Protector of Lao Shizi is here to make money! They have taken us all away. There are empty houses everywhere in this village, and they are not allowed to search!"

"But we're not fools," someone questioned, "Aren't we going to take the money away? What are they searching for after taking the money away? Broken tables and chairs?"

The rich man rolled his eyes and said, "How do I know what they are searching for? But don't you think about it. If there is no profit, they will spend money to let us live in a house outside the county seat for nothing?"

"Maybe you have to pay the fee (same as "Jiu", accommodation fee) after you pass by, and you can't pay for the old and the young!"

As soon as these words were said, the people who were already retreating did not want to move.

"You can move if you want, anyway, I won't move!" said the rich man.

"Then let's not move. The crops in the field still have to be taken care of. Even if we can't grow divine food, we can grow rice!"

"Well, then I won't move either."

After discussing it properly, several people went home one after another. They told their parents, wives and children about their decision. Some people went to tell their relatives and in-laws not to move. They used the same rhetoric as the rich.

After all, this is a good thing to say that there will be a flood, and many people really don't believe it.

In the end, three-quarters of the village moved to the county seat with the village head, and it was considered a relatively well-mobilized village. Shen Changan followed the low-level officials below to go from village to household, and this scene was also seen in his eyes.

She was a little angry before, but after thinking about it, if these people can obey orders, then the word "foolish people" will not be used. Of course, this is a good thing for the court. After all, the foundation of the dynasty needs these people Come to lay the ground, the more ignorant the people, the happier the ruler.

In the evening, Shen Chang'an discussed the matter in front of him in the study with the Governor of Li and the Lord Wei Zhang of Luowu County.

Shen Chang'an said to the general: "Tomorrow has passed the deadline, we must do our best to keep as many people as possible. Tomorrow, Lord Zhang will send troops to urge these people to evacuate. If anyone refuses to follow, let the soldiers tie him up directly." Bring it back, and put it in prison for obstructing the execution of business affairs, and after the flood, I will report to the emperor and sentence him to hard labor or exile!"

Mr. Zhang clapped his hands in response: "The last general obeys orders."

Shen Chang'an thought about it again, and said: "Tomorrow, we must get things done and let everyone who can evacuate. Two days later will be the day the Taoist priest said."

"Be sure to tell the soldiers again and again that saving people is important, but while saving people, you must also ensure your own safety. If a soldier dies on the battlefield, it is a well-deserved death. What is it if you lose your life for someone who is not worth it?!"

These common people could not bear the consequences of resisting the edict, so Shen Chang'an used the crime of obstructing the official business to label the uncooperative common people.

"Yes!"

Mr. Zhang took the order, and at the same time he was very grateful to Shen Chang'an. If it was replaced by other officials, he would definitely save the lives of the people first.

After all, they want to establish an image of loving the people for themselves, so the lives of the soldiers are not so important.

Master Zhang immediately went down to make arrangements after taking the order. This time, Shen Changan dispatched 2 people from several nearby counties to assist him in disaster prevention and relief.

The next day, the soldiers formed a team of 100 and went to the village to clean up those who did not move.

They are pressed for time, but they don't have time to reason with the stubborn people. When they go up, they ask whether they should move or not?Tie them up and throw them into a prison van, and take them all away and put them in prison.

The common people were frightened and stupid. The little boss who came before had a gentle attitude. They forgot that the imperial court is the imperial court.

Seeing the soldiers with weapons, a few more families were arrested and put into the prison van. The villagers dared not resist, and the people after that all followed the team out of the village with their soft hands.

They are all ordinary people, how can anyone dare to fight against the court?
