The world of counterfeit magistrates competes in the world

Chapter 4 Unity to overcome the difficulties

Lin Yifan sat on the ground with hundreds of people, and next to him were gathered the village elders elected by the people. Lin Yifan confessed to everyone the current problems facing the county, that is, the four questions he and Liu Yue summed up, and began to ask Ji Yu civil.At the beginning, everyone was thinking hard. These problems are a bit big for ordinary people. Usually, they are concerned about things like family problems, spring plowing and autumn harvest. How can they think about these things.Suddenly, the scene was silent.Lin Yifan felt a little disappointed. After all, he was an ordinary person. It seemed that the questions he asked were really not suitable for them.He smiled slightly at the moment and said: "Don't think so much, everyone. The most urgent thing is to solve our food problem. Let's think about how to fill our stomachs."

When it came to eating, everyone's interest was really high, and after a while someone shouted: "We can dig wild vegetables to eat!"

"You idiot, aren't we just digging wild vegetables today? And almost all of them are gone, there is not enough for everyone to fill their stomachs." Someone immediately retorted.

Lin Yifan said hastily: "This can be regarded as a solution. Think about it again, what else can you find to eat?"

"I know that there is a edible root of a plant, but the taste is very bad. I don't know if this can be counted?"

"Forget it, of course, write this one down, and you will take someone to dig it later."

"I will make some traps for hunting, and I can go to the mountains to set up an ambush to hunt, but it's hard to say whether I can catch the prey."

"This is very good. Although the time is uncertain, as long as it is a way to obtain food, we have to try it." . . .

With Lin Yifan's continuous affirmation and encouragement, everyone began to let go of their restraint, use their brains, and make suggestions one after another.After a while, dozens of ways to obtain food were collected.Immediately afterwards, Lin Yifan began to assign tasks to everyone and execute them according to the methods everyone said.Those with certain skills became the leaders of these groups and led the group in the search for food.The remaining people, Lin Yifan, did not let them idle down, and mobilized to clean up the county town, collecting some useful items.Fortunately, the Golden Werewolves didn't search very thoroughly this time, and didn't destroy some things that were not very valuable or that they didn't need.It took a whole morning to pile up hills of objects in front of the county government office.Many of these things are daily necessities, and they are still very useful to Hengshan County, where people's livelihood is now in decline.

At noon, all the people who went out to carry out their missions came back and brought their results. Of course, more people came back empty-handed, but Lin Yifan didn't care, as everyone had already expected this.After counting the harvest, Lin Yifan was very satisfied. The food was enough for everyone to have a good meal.Everyone looked at the piles of food, smiled happily, and flattered Lin Yifan for his brilliance and martial arts.Regarding how to distribute, Lin Yifan has already discussed with everyone. At this difficult time, we can only engage in a rationing system, that is, a big pot of rice. Concentrate more manpower on collection.Therefore, Lin Yifan changed the system, the more food a group brings back, the more they will be rationed today, so as to mobilize everyone's enthusiasm.

When a disaster strikes, the strength of an individual is small, and only a group can survive the difficult disaster.Under the leadership of Lin Yifan, the fake county magistrate, the remaining nearly thousand old and weak people in Hengshan County finally gathered together, worked together, supported each other, maximized the advantages of the group, and began to rebuild Hengshan County.Sometimes people need a backbone to guide them. Although the old master is popular, he has no leadership ability. He did nothing for a month after the military disaster. It was not until Lin Yifan's arrival that the old master could play a role It's time.Although Lin Yifan has never been a leader, even when he grew up, he has never had any management work. It is very difficult for him to lead a group of people who are starved for food. Fortunately, living in the modern society, the information he receives is very difficult. Rich, but I have never seen a pig running, and I have eaten pork.Immediately, I came up with the motto of the great man back then, relying on the masses and mobilizing the masses.Unexpectedly, the effect was not bad, which gave Lin Yifan a little confidence.The food problem of the four difficult problems in Hengshan has been barely solved. The effect produced by organized foraging is good. After a few days of collective dispatch, the harvest is very rich. In fact, Hengshan County is located in the mountains, and the products It can be said that there is no lack of abundance, running on the mountains, swimming in the water, and growing in the ground. It can be said that everything is available, but it is impossible to get enough food through one person, which causes everyone to worry about food every day.Now, under the guidance of Lin Yifan, everyone knows how to cooperate with each other, use their brains, and carry out collective work, which doubles the efficiency.After this incident, the common people's sense of identification with Lin Yifan was greatly enhanced, and they would call him "Master" kindly when meeting each other.

Although the problem of eating has been temporarily solved, it cannot be sustained for a long time.For this reason, Lin Yifan specially sent Liu Yue to lead people to the county town to ask for help from the county guard, and asked the county government to provide necessary money and food to Hengshan County to tide over the difficult time.He just hoped that Liu Yue could bring the much-needed money and food as soon as possible. Lin Yifan didn't know how long this method of foraging could last.

The current food crisis has been temporarily resolved, and reconstruction work is proceeding in an orderly manner.But given today's thin population, post-disaster reconstruction has progressed very slowly, especially now that elderly women make up the majority.For this reason, Lin Yifan once again summoned all the village elders to gather in the county government office. These elders have now become Lin Yifan's right-hand assistants, assisting Lin Yifan to appease the people, maintain order, and assign tasks.After everyone was seated, Lin Yifan brought up the issue of population for discussion, "Fathers and elders, our county is now undergoing post-disaster reconstruction, but our population is too small. We want to rebuild our homeland and restore the prosperity of the past, relying on the current population I don’t know when it will be? Here, I would like to ask all the sages, how to increase the population of this county?”

Everyone was in deep thought when they heard the words, Lin Yifan didn't rush, he picked up a bowl of cold boiled water and drank it slowly, after a long while, the old man sitting in the first row on the left murmured, "My lord, in fact, our county lost a lot of money in this military disaster. The population is not large. Before the Golden Werewolves came, more than half of the people in our county fled. Only we, the old and the weak, could only hide nearby. Most of those who escaped fled into the depths of the mountains. Now We don't know their whereabouts, otherwise we can call them down the mountain, after all their relatives are here. And people from the villages under our county will usually come back, their land is here, and they will not come back. No. It’s just that the reclamation prisoners who were exiled here last year took this opportunity to escape into the mountains, and it will be difficult to find them. Basically, they will be divided up by the many bandits on Hengshan.”

"Oh, so, most of them will come back? It's just that we don't know when they will come back, right?" Lin Yifan nodded.

"Yes, my lord, now we can only wait."

Lin Yifan looked at the others again and asked, "What do you think?"

"My lord, this is the only way to go now. There are many dangers in the mountains. It depends on their good fortune to come back alive." One of the old men sighed.

Lin Yifan stood up, took two steps, turned around, and said firmly: "No, we must not remain indifferent and do nothing. These people are not only the population of the county to rebuild, but also relatives and friends of everyone here. We must not Sit back and watch them sink into the mountains, we must rescue them!"

"But we don't know the situation in Hengshan after all, how can we find them?"

"Everyone, I have an idea. You go find a few young people who have been in the mountains. In a few days, I will take people to the mountains to find them." Lin Yifan smiled slightly. Orion.

"This is absolutely impossible! How can you take risks so easily with a thousand-dollar body, let's find some people to go to the mountains to find someone!" The elders of the village were anxious when they heard that Lin Yifan was their backbone at this time, so naturally they couldn't Put him in danger.

"Thank you for your concern, but I personally bring people into the mountain for a purpose. I am the county magistrate of Hengshan County, and those people are the people of my Hengshan County. As a county magistrate, I have a duty to do so. First, Only in the name of our county magistrate can the people be convinced and willing to come out of the mountain. Third, I heard that there are many mountain people in Hengshan who hid in the mountain to escape the oppression of the government. These people are now our source of population. I hope to use my sincerity to let them accept the management of my Hengshan County and become citizens of the empire. Fourth, I have been thinking about it for the past few days and feel that Hengshan is a cornucopia. I want to go in and see what can make our county rich. Yes, and at the same time, I also want to find out the terrain. In the future, we may rely on these five hundred miles of horizontal mountains to avoid military disasters." Lin Yifan talked eloquently, and declined everyone's persuasion.

All the villagers were speechless by his rhetoric, so they had no choice but to obey.

Soon, the village elders brought five young children. Although Lin Yifan felt that it was a bit small, there was nothing he could do about it. How can there be such a small population now.These young people already know their mission, and they are all eager to try. Compared with the boring and hard work, it is undoubtedly more exciting to follow the county magistrate into the mountains. life is better.

Lin Yifan was quite satisfied with the mental state of these five people, he patted them on the shoulder and said a few words of admiration, unexpectedly, these five people cried bitterly, crying and shouting that they would go through fire and water for themselves, which even attracted the onlookers for a while. A look of envy and hatred.

Watching these people's performances, Lin Yifan felt a little helpless. Could this be the legendary domineering spirit?I just want to motivate them. Is there any need to be so excited?So he didn't dare to say anything more, but told them to get ready to gather in front of the county yamen tomorrow, and then dispersed the crowd.

Strolling through the dilapidated county government mansion, Lin Yifan sighed leisurely and let go of his calm expression.It is hard work to pretend to be calm and confident in front of everyone.Although the current food crisis has been alleviated, it can only last for less than ten days. If Mr. Liu can't bring food, he really has nothing to do.During this period, there are still many problems waiting for him to solve, and many crises lurking, which can completely destroy Hengshan County at any time.Such as bandits, such as Jinwolf.Now he can only bet that he will not be plundered in a short time, and he wants to build Hengshan County in the shortest time.Therefore, this time he must enter the mountains. Only by integrating the strength and resources in the mountains can he effectively deal with possible future crises.As for the empire, he did not give any hope. If the empire still attached importance to Hengshan County, it would not have done nothing after more than a month after the war disaster, leaving the people here to fend for themselves.Now, Lin Yifan only hoped that the county government would be kind enough to allocate some money and food.
