Vol 4 Chapter 136: After all, he became what he hated the most

The first, third and sixth chapters finally became what I hated the most

(Let me talk a little off topic first-can you guys not be so knowledgeable-the wreath under the mountain is the first movie that made me cry and filled my heart with anger.

I remember the words of Commander Lei very deeply. I remembered it somehow when I was writing about Li Dingguo.

I was going to brag about it, but the car overturned in an instant. Do you still remember things from more than 30 years ago... That's it, everyone is sorry, can I lower my IQ? Otherwise it would be difficult for me to write. )

Xu Wu thinks that since he came to the capital, he has been desperate!

Before he came, he had been infinitely concerned about the difficulties here. As a result, after seeing the capital, he found that this place was more than ten times worse than his worst expectation.

The plague, the refugees, the hungry, the ruins, the gangsters, and the people of the capital without a backbone.

After seeing the appearance of the capital, Xu Wu thought about it clearly and clearly that the plague would surely reappear when the autumn wind blows.

Therefore, with regard to the governance of the capital, economic recovery cannot be undertaken first, but a way to make these people survive first.

The capital was originally devastated by Zhu Ming’s corrupt officials, eunuchs, and soldiers. Later, after being plagued by Li Hongji’s three-foot exploitation, the place became unpopular and demanding for money and no money, no matter whether it was a rich household. Still poor, they are now on the same starting line.

It is best to manage places where the wealth is kept by the people, because the people can feed themselves.

It is very troublesome where the government and the people are poor.

For this reason, after Xu Wu thought of the capital, he immediately froze the silver that Xia Wanchun and Mu Tiantao had obtained!

No matter how urged by the Treasury Ambassador, and no matter how the household department urged the payment, Xu Wuxiang did not let go. Even if Zhang Guozhu sent the transfer document, Xu Wuxiang valiantly gave it back.

In a word, if you want money, you will die!

However, having money in the capital has an ass!

Even the mice in the poverty-stricken areas of Shuntian Mansion will starve to death. Where is there surplus food to feed nearly a million people in the capital?

In the summer, the fields are lush and green, and the people can get something to eat. If in winter when the grass and trees are withered, a large amount of food cannot be brought in, there will definitely be a large number of starving people here.

When Li Dingguo entered Beijing, the state minister's office had anticipated this situation. Therefore, he carried a lot of grain. However, when Li Dingguo left the capital to enter Shanhaiguan, he took a lot of grain.

Throwing a mess to Xu Wuxiang completely.

These days, officials dispatched from Lantian to the capital have been run around like frightened donkeys by Xu Wu's desire. All of them have only one purpose, and that is to find enough food to feed the people in Beijing for a year.

Fortunately, Mu Tiantao gave Liu Zongmin a very good idea. The saddle-shaped silver plate can be carried by these officials, which greatly saves the time to buy food.

At the same time, a large amount of food has been sent out from Lantian, and within one and a half months, it will be able to relieve the urgent need.

It's sad to say that the only officials from Lantian who are really busy for this city and the people are.

The people here have nothing but deathly silence.

You give him food, and he goes on, you order him to do things, and he does things. You order them to clean up the corners of the city and start to exterminate rodents. They just wander in the city all day long. They are catching mice. As for whether they can If caught, they don't care.

Xu Wuxiang has opened countless bathhouses in the capital, hoping that these people can go in and take a bath. They are still very obedient. After bathing, they put on their dirty clothes full of lice and fleas, and then waited for the next bath. .

When it gets dark, the capital becomes a dead city!

Even the merchants from Lantian who want to grab the market have gradually lost confidence in the city.

People's hearts are dead, and there is nothing left.

"Today, how much grain will be shipped back?"

Xu Wu wanted to lean on the back of the chair tiredly, a sense of powerlessness that he had never felt before pervading his body.

"Six hundred and eighty-seven loads of grain." Zhang Liang, his deputy, replied feebly.

"not enough!"

"The lower officials know that within a radius of five hundred miles, we basically can't find extra food."

"How about Tianjin?"

"The situation there is a little better. We encourage the people to go fishing for fish. The production is pretty good. Everyone eats fish every day. At least they won't die from starvation."

"Can you increase your fishing effort?"

"There is no extra boat!"

"What did Shi Lang do to eat? I had sent him the paperwork a long time ago and asked him to transport grain to the north. Why hasn't he arrived yet?"

"We have already set off, but now is the time when the waves are so fierce, the lower officials thought that we could not put hope on them."

"If you let it go, the price of grain moss in the capital will increase by another 20%!"

Zhang Liang, who was originally feeble, heard Xu Wu want to say this, and was taken aback: "The price of grain in the capital is already sky-high."

Xu Wuxiang said with a cold face: "If the canal is not built, the food in Shuntian Mansion will never be enough."

"Fu Zun thought that adding 20% ​​of the money would make the canal accessible?"

Xu Wu wanted to pick up the whip from the table and said, "Let's go, let's visit Caokou!"

"The palace has a murderous heart?"

Xu Wu wanted to look at Zhang Liang and said, "Don't you think I can only be gentle?"

Zhang Liang smiled and said: "Naturally not, the clerical officer of the Secret Spy Department has also seen it."

When Xu Wu wanted to arrive at the Caokou Clubhouse, it was already surrounded by soldiers.

An old man with gray hair stood upright in the yard, even when he watched Xu Wu want to come in, he looked proud and ignored him.

"Start shipping!"

Xu Wu wanted to stare at the boss of Caokou in the capital named Tang Tongtian coldly.

Tang Tongtian sneered: "The canal is cut off, how to transport water?"

Xu Wu thought: "Then build the canal."

Tang Tongtian smiled and said, "This requires a lot of silver."

Xu Wu thought: "I have silver."

Tang Tongtian smiled again: "Fu Zun is here to agree to follow the rules of my mouth?"

Xu Wu thought did not answer. Instead, he walked to a middle-aged man in his thirties to take a closer look, and then indifferently said to Tang Tongtian: "Daming relies on the canal's south-to-north transfer of grain to supply capital and border defense, and maintain water transportation. Nearly three hundred years.

During these three hundred years, around the collection and transportation of water and grain, a set of unspoken rules system, called "water regulation", has grown up.

The water regulation is a private modification of the statutory benefit distribution method.

First, revise the relationship with farmers, and use "floating harvest" to scrape farmers a few more dollars.

Then adjust internal relations and collude with the government to distribute the fertilizer as fairly and reasonably as possible.

Over the years, with the corruption of the Ming officials, you have become the ones who truly control this canal.

This river makes you rich, powerful, and defiant.

You are not at all interested in the great changes in the world, because you think that your group of people live in symbiosis with the canal, and no matter who is on the imperial court, they cannot do without your help.

As long as you still control the canal boats and the food lifeline of this city, you can continue to live the good life you want.

Tang Tongtian, I tell you today, you are wrong. "

Xu Wu wanted to talk, and he drew out the long knife from the guard's waist. With the cold light flashing, the middle-aged man's head slipped from his neck and fell to the ground.

A burst of blood spurted from the neck cavity, Xu Wu didn't want to dodge, letting the blood splash on his face, and then said to Tang Tongtian who was still indifferent: "Open the water!"

Facing the death of his son, Tang Tongtian didn't seem to feel anything. He still said coldly: "The mansion can try to chop off the old man's head together to see if he can open the water."

Xu Wu wanted to smile, but his face was stained with blood, some even flowed into his mouth and stained his teeth red, which made his smile extraordinarily hideous.

"You people already have your own underground court, which is well-organized, has your own interests, and appears to be fair, armed with your own, and you think you are powerful.

For many years, Lao Tzu has been thinking about how to forget his identity as a robber.

Now, you have successfully evoked my fierceness.

Blocking the canal watercourse, colluding with the southeast tycoon, in order to increase the price of grain in the capital, and then control the canal water transport, so that you can continue to be rich and prosperous, this is the way to die.

Tang Tongtian, do you really think we can't kill people? "

Tang Tongtian glanced at his son's headless corpse and said lightly: "If an adult can kill all the 100,000 water workers, he won't have to be so embarrassed."

Xu Wu wanted to sigh and said: "Lantian Huangting has just taken control of the world, it is really not good to kill 100,000 people in one go, but from now on, you will go to the desert and continue to play your own water transport!"

The smile on Tang Tongtian's face gradually disappeared. He looked at Xu Wu and thought: "It will be a mess."

Xu Wu thought: "A mere 100,000 people are not enough for General Li Dingguo to have a spoonful of stew. Where can I go?"

Tang Tongtian slowly squatted down, picked up his son's head and hugged it in his arms, thinking to Xu Wu: "Old man Rong will discuss with each mouth."

Xu Wu wanted to shake his head and said: "Your family must be sent to the Western Regions for water transport. I will only continue to discuss with your second master. If he doesn't agree to open the water immediately, let him go with you to the Western Regions for water transport.

And so on, until someone is willing to unconditionally follow the rules given by the government to do water transportation.

Tang Tongtian, I am not here to discuss with you, but to give you the final order.

At the same time I was looking for you, my Lantian Secret Spy Department had sent someone to all your mouths. Those who didn't follow-kill! "

Tang Tongtian was taken aback~www.readwn.com~ and quickly said: "My lord, Caokou has been wronged!"

Xu Wu thought but was no longer willing to talk to him, and came to the second master Ke Dashan with his grunting eyes and said: "Open the mouth!"

Ke Dashan looked at Tang Tongtian who was **** and thrown into the prison wagon, and said with a trembling: "Open the mouth!"

Xu Wu thought: "Two months later, the first batch of grains must be imported into Beijing. The grain must not be lost and the price of grain will rise by 20%."

Tang Tongtian, who was huddled in the prison car, immediately howled when he heard the words: "My lord, the villain is willing to do his best."

Xu Wuxiang sneered and said: "You have to go to the Western Desert for water transportation. If you can't do it, your children and grandchildren will continue."

Ke Dashan repeatedly bowed his head and said: "Return to the adults, as long as you have the money, the younger ones will definitely be able to bring back the food and grain needed by the adults."

Xu Wu wanted to touch the top of Ke Dashan's head and said, "Okay, okay, okay, if it succeeds, the officer will allow you to make a fortune. If it fails, your whole family will be sent to Java to grow sugar cane..."
