The prince is five and a half years old, and he is reclaiming land and becoming a group favorite.

Chapter 101 Your Majesty has brought you many refugees from Jiangnan.

Chapter 101 The emperor has sent you many refugees from Jiangnan.

Compared with Qi Chenglang's single-handed approach, the emperor's method was much simpler and clearer. He assigned the task to the prefect of Jinzhou and asked people to constantly talk to the refugees about the benefits of settling in Xinliang. At the same time, the imperial envoy brought relief money, food and supplies to the refugees. A thousand guards accompanied him.

Coming from the Jiangnan area, this group of refugees never had enough to eat. They ate grass roots and bark almost every day. Occasionally, they could see one or two wild game in the mountains, and a group of people would start fighting.

Going to Beijing is the belief of these refugees.

But now, the imperial envoy said that in the first month of going to Xinliang, His Highness King Wen would give them food and monthly money in the second month. As long as they cultivated the wasteland well, they would never die of hunger.

Of course, these things were said by the imperial envoys, and they did not know the truth.

However, the imperial envoy tempted them with multigrain cakes. As long as they followed the team, they could not only eat multigrain cakes every day, but also occasionally eat meat porridge!
For those who have not had a normal meal of solid food in several months, who can resist this temptation?

After all, we have traveled from Jiangnan to Jinzhou, so what are we afraid of going to Xinliang again?
The refugees not only left on their own, but also found ways to inform those who came after them to go to Xinliang together.

Before Qi Chenglang even tried to persuade them, these refugees ran away with the imperial envoy.

At the same time, Qi Chengjun also brought him the emperor's oral instructions. Because the emperor wanted to surprise His Highness King Wen, he asked him to keep the matter confidential.

Qi Chenglang thought as he walked, this is not a surprise, this is simply a shock!
With such a surprise, it was already the end of August when the group arrived outside Changzhou City. Qi Chenglang took the imperial minister back to report the news, and the refugees were placed outside the city.

Gu Yuzhi has passed his sixth birthday. Compared with last year, he has grown significantly taller. His chubby face that was originally full of breasts has lost some weight due to exercise, but his eyes are as clear and innocent as ever.

In the Wen Mansion meeting hall, Gu Yuzhi was swinging his legs happily, and his attention quickly shifted to his feet.

Hehehehe, he has really grown a lot, his feet are almost touching the ground when he sits on the chair.

Gu Yuzhi weighed his feet happily, put it on the ground and put it back again. He continued to play for a while, until Xie Changshi handed over the letter, he sat down again, straightened his back, and read the content of the letter carefully.

Xie Changshi said with a smile on his face: "Congratulations to Your Highness, Congratulations to Your Highness, Xinliang will have a good harvest this year."

The letter was sent back by Chen Dianyi, saying that Xin Liang was harvesting corn. After all the corn was harvested, sweet potatoes, potatoes, rape and other crops would be harvested.

By late September, there will be a rush to harvest rice and corn.

When we are reclaiming land, we rush to plant, and when we harvest, we have to compete with God for time. We are afraid that if it snows in Xinliang, this year's hard work will be in vain.

Hearing Xie Changshi say congratulations, Gu Yuzhi felt so beautiful that his heart was bubbling with joy.

After working hard for more than half a year, Xinliang finally arrived at the harvest season. From now on, even if the imperial brother stopped giving him rewards, he no longer had to be afraid.

Gu Yuzhi said while gesticulating: "Chen Dianyi has been working really hard this year. When the Chinese New Year comes, I will give Chen Dianyi a big red envelope."

Three more months, no, half a year more monthly payment.

Teacher Shu said that talents like Chen Dianyi must not be stingy with rewards and must win over people.

Although Gu Yuzhi didn't quite understand this truth, he felt that Teacher Shu was right.

Xie Changshi glanced at the end of the letter and his expression calmed down: "But Your Highness, Chen Dianyi said that the progress of Xinliang's collection is relatively slow. Let us discuss with the Qi Prefect to see if we can allocate some manpower to Xinliang to help."

Gu Yuzhi followed Xie Changshi's example and sighed.

How is it possible? Xinliang is rushing to harvest, and the people of Changzhou are also rushing to harvest!

At this moment, Qi Chenglang stepped in and bared his big white teeth before saying anything: "Your Highness, I'm back." He chuckled: "I'm not only back, but I also brought a surprise for Your Highness!"

Gu Yuzhi blinked: "Surprise?"

He tilted his head and thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Which royal sister-in-law asked you to bring me something? What is it?"

Guard Qi is so happy, could it be because of the money?

This year, thanks to the compensation from Li Ji Trading Company and the casino, the government has finally managed to survive without any danger.

He and Xie Changshi have discussed that if Xinliang has a good harvest of grain and there is a surplus, they will first open a grain store...

Just as Gu Yuzhi was thinking about it, he saw Qi Chenglang shaking his head slightly and saying, "No, no, this is not a surprise for you, but from the Emperor."

He took out a letter from his arms and handed it over: "Your Highness, you will know after you read it."

After Xie Changshi received the letter, Qi Chenglang continued: "I just heard His Highness in the courtyard saying that Chen Dianyi is looking for someone. I feel that I have come back at the right time!"

These refugees happened to catch up with the harvest in Xinliang. After the food harvest is completed, these people can immediately invest in the infrastructure construction of Xinliang without wasting any time.

Gu Yuzhi stepped forward and looked at it for a long time, his eyes widened: "Food in the south of the Yangtze River?"

He made a mental calculation: "It has been raining from the beginning of spring to before you left, so it has been more than four months!"

Gu Yuzhi's face suddenly darkened: "For more than four months, we have missed the spring sowing. What do the people in Jiangnan eat?"

Xie Changshi's face also became particularly embarrassed: "The impact of the floods in the south of the Yangtze River is definitely not only in the south of the Yangtze River, but also in the entire Sang Dynasty. Your Highness also knows that the south of the Yangtze River is an important production area for our dynasty, and a reduction in grain production means a loss of grain." If prices rise, the people of Mobei will suffer again this winter."

This topic is too heavy. If he were still in the palace, he would never feel anything when hearing such news.

But now he knows the importance of food and understands the difficulties of the people even more. He can't forget the scenes of last year's snow disaster.

Gu Yuzhi held his chin with both hands and pursed his lips and said: "Guard Qi, you also said that the emperor brought me a surprise. How can this be a surprise?"

"Your Highness, don't worry." Qi Chenglang stopped laughing, "I asked someone to inquire. The rain in Jiangnan has stopped. The emperor sent people to provide disaster relief. At the same time, he allocated 10 taels of silver and [-] shi of grain. In addition, there are some tax reductions. policy."

Gu Yuzhi patted his chest with his small hand: "As long as the rain stops, we can wait a little longer. The ground in Jiangnan is dry, and the people can still sow seeds quickly."

Teacher Shu said that most of the crops in the Jiangnan area have two seasons a year. If there is no time for spring planting, autumn planting must be done as soon as possible.

Xie Changshi shook his head slightly, understanding that after the flood, the plague would probably occur, but...

He glanced at Gu Yuzhi, swallowed the matter, looked at Qi Chenglang and said, "What is the surprise you are talking about?"

Qi Chenglang raised his head, raised his chest, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth: "The surprise is that the emperor's ministers have brought back many refugees from Jiangnan for you!"
