With Pei Xingjian's promise, Mo Wen left the inn nervously.

Outside the inn, a few young men in some rags were waiting not far away. When they saw Mo Wen coming out, they followed him silently.

After leaving the city, several young men quickly caught up with Mo Yu who was waiting not far ahead and asked tightly: "Uncle Mo, what are you doing, what did Lord Pei say?"

"I can't go back." Mo Wen shook his head and sighed, "Actually, we should have known that such a result will be."

"But..." One of the young men wanted to say something else, but was quickly pulled by his companion and winked at him.

At this critical moment, Mo Wen, who was hit, should not have the intention to speak. Anyway, he knew that Pei Xingjian didn't have the intention to take them back, so it was meaningless to say anything else.

"But..." Just as several young people were disappointed and sighed, Mo Wen spoke again: "But Lord Pei gave us a chance to go to the shops and mines opened by Han people to work. The wages are the same as those of Fuyu people, and they can also protect us from bullying."

"What? Is this true?" The young man who had just been pulled by his companion could hardly believe his ears.

"It should be true. I believe Mr. Pei shouldn't have lie to me as an old man." Mo Wen said.

Several young men looked at each other. Although they did not have the chance to return to the Tang Dynasty, it seemed that it would be good that they would not be bullied in the future.

Looking at the young men who were surprised in their eyes, Mo Wen felt a little better. He patted the gray that did not exist on his body and walked to the distance: "Okay, let's go back quickly. Lao Zhang and the others may have been waiting urgently. It's better to go back quickly and tell them the matter, so as to decide how to do it in the future."

"Oh, Uncle Mo, Uncle Mo, please wait and tell us what Lord Pei said..." Several young people chased behind Mo Wen and started shouting.

...

In the inn, Pei Xingjian and Pang Wenlong smiled bitterly. The incidents came one after another, which made the two of them overwhelmed. They had thought about many possibilities before, but they had never considered the matters of Hanmin.

"What should I do? Do you want to talk to the prince?!" Pang Wenlong asked.

"Do you think it's useful? Not to mention that the prince doesn't care about this kind of thing, even if he really cares about it, what can it do? So many people have returned to the Tang Dynasty at once, do you know who they are? Are there any spies from Goguryeo, and whether to redistribute land?" Pei Xingjian said dejectedly.

To be honest, if there were only a few hundred people, or one or two thousand people, Pei Xingjian would have dared to agree directly to Mo Wen just now.

But in reality, there are more than 100,000 people. This is probably some Han people near the pseudo-Chang'an. After a longer period of time, people from other places also received news, and the number of people was estimated to reach more than 200,000.

Not to mention, there are probably many people watching the consequences of things. If the court really agrees to accept these Han people back to China, the number of people will increase. In this way, it will be 300,000.

There are 300,000 people, only how many people are in Goguryeo! You got 300,000 away at once. It would be strange if Gao Jianwu was not crazy. After all, only the people have him, the emperor. If even the people have escaped, what's the point of his emperor in front of him?

So it is impossible to bring everyone back, unless... unless one day the Tang Dynasty completely turns Goguryeo into its own territory, it will not return at that time!

Pang Wenlong hesitated for a moment: "I think no matter whether it is useful or not, the news will be sent back. Anyway, the business road is open now, so it is not a big trouble to send a message."

Pei Xingjian nodded indifferently: "Well, I'll send Xiong Lao Er back, he has more experience in the world."

Pei Xingjian had just promised that the old man Mo Wen would take care of the Han people who were wandering in Goguryeo. This promise must be fulfilled. After sending Xiong Lao Er out, two young intelligence officials sent a lot of people to inform the people of the five surnames and Qi Wang to take in the Han people with all their might.

...

The five surnames and seven hopes, plus the Chang'an nobles, received a notice from Pei Xingjian, and each had his own ideas for a moment.

The nobles believed that it was better to use mature than to use raw materials. Anyway, they recruited people. The Han people were their own people no matter what they said, so they were more convenient to use. The five surnames and Qiwang held the idea of ​​giving them to the foreigners rather than to the slaves. Several mines were better than to use Fuyu people than to use Han people.

Both sides held their own opinions and refused to give in to each other, so they simply found Pei Xingjian and asked him, the young man, to decide.

In Juxian Teahouse, invested by Li Muyun, more than a dozen major families were in charge of the heads of the aristocratic family. The representatives of the aristocratic family spoke first: "Mr. Pei, you also know that our five surnames and Qiwang business is too dangerous. How to solve the problem if there is a problem with the Han people? How can we be worthy of their families?!"

Before Pei Xingjian could make a statement, someone from the noble side immediately responded: "What's the right thing to do? According to you, will our Tang Dynasty mine not start construction?"

"How can it be the same? In the Tang Dynasty, there is a planned mining. Here, we are..."

The representative of the aristocratic family did not finish his words, but everyone knew what he meant.

Since they came to Goguryeo, they were just for money, exploiting the remaining value and exploiting labor was necessary. The miners in the mines paid more than twice the labor every day as that of the Tang Dynasty.

But the ideas of the nobles are absolutely different from those of the aristocratic families. In their opinion, Goguryeo was from the Tang Dynasty sooner or later, so it would be fine if you dig it slowly. Anyway, that thing couldn't escape.

So the two sides started arguing again on this issue. Pei Xingjian was so angry that he knocked on the table and said, "Okay, don't argue anymore. I have reported this matter to the court. I believe that there will be a result in a while. What we need to do now is to appease these refugees from the previous dynasty. No matter how they came to Goguryeo or the risks of their work, they are Han people, so we have to give them a way out."

Speaking of this, normal business matters have been raised to the moral level. They are all compatriots. Although they are wandering outside, if they don’t care about it, the reputation of the five surnames and Qi Wangs will probably not be preserved.

Although the representatives of several major families were a little reluctant, they had to bite the bullet and agree to Pei Xingjian's request in the end.

However, compared with the nobles, they promised to accept the conditions that only half of the Han people were hired, and no matter how many, they would not be able to do so.

In comparison, the nobles are much more generous. No matter how many they accept, they accept all the principles and the principle is still the same. It is better to use them to be mature than to use them raw.
