Two days later, a yamen runner entered the public room with a letter and handed it to Zhao Cheng: "The letter from the Ai Shi. The person who sent the letter was sent to the person, and he went there without stopping."

When I opened it, I saw that it was sent by Bai Chenxiang.

First of all, there is a good news. After Zhao Cheng taught the dragon-slaying technique last time, a few days later, the letter said that the Yangshan Village had a good result and had recruited about 200 people from nearby to the Yangshan Village. Now, their size is close to 300.

The trouble is that people have to eat. The Yangshan Village originally had not accumulated much food, but now it is basically exhausted. The letter said miserable. Since yesterday, they have been drinking porridge to live.

The second bad news is that they are not far from Wang Xiu’s Ganoderma clan, and are also within the scope of an “ultimatum”. Yesterday, Wang Xiu sent someone to threaten and warn him.

The third is big news: Hongshan Village was attacked, and Bai Chenxiang couldn't tell how many people died. She probably had nearly a hundred people, including a small number of children and the elderly, and was burned into residue by a fire.

"It seems like something is going to happen!"

Zhao Cheng hurriedly got up and looked at the area hanging in the hall to observe.

"What's going on in Hongshan? What's the situation?" Zhao Chengtie asked after a while.

Several clerks from the military affairs office looked at each other, indicating that they were not aware of their abilities.

Well, this is a bit of blame for them, but it cannot be entirely blamed. In fact, there is no place in the administrative region of the Song Dynasty, which is just a mountain. The official does not recognize that there are people living there, nor does it go there to collect taxes. There are no archers guarding.

What Wang Xiu did will not form an official "big case" and there will not even be news, at least for the time being.

After hesitating for a while, I can't think too much about it. Zhao Cheng can't report this matter to the prefecture. Because the source of the news is a problem.

Zhao Cheng's contact with Bai Chenxiang was Lao Pei's tacit approval, not Cai You's tacit approval. Cai You knew that it was not said that he would definitely cause trouble, but because Cai You's movements were difficult to understand, he would add variables to the incident, and it would definitely be equivalent to causing trouble for Lao Pei. Then Zhao Cheng's life would definitely not be easy.

After he decided to do so, he casually explained some official matters to his subordinates, and hurriedly left the county government office.

The most urgent task is to raise the first batch of food to send to Bai Chenxiang as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if she has the legendary Taizu's mental method, people's hearts will definitely not be dispersed at this critical moment. Once it disperses, the government army will not be able to use it. Qin Ming is an extremely awesome existence, so basically Chizhou is Wang Xiu's world.

If this caused further financial difficulties in the court and chaos in many places formed a general environment, Wang Xiu would definitely rebel in advance, and Chizhou would have been in a war. At that time, let alone the little girl who took out firewood to Zhao Cheng, Cai You would make a mistake once, and Qin Ming would be defeated once, and even the city would not be able to defend it, and blood would definitely flow into a river.

At the earliest, Zhao Cheng, as an intermediary, reached a preliminary agreement for Bai Chenxiang’s ministry and the county government: the plan to exchange ore for grain.

The prerequisite for obtaining such conditions is that Lao Pei is not a stupid official. He wants to do something and can temporarily tolerate the Bai Chenxiang tribe. So Lao Pei accepted the theory that Zhao Cheng said, "This is equivalent to providing productivity for our county."

But now the white agarwood department is still in the cracks to rectify, and the first ore cannot be prevented from being produced. Without the first batch of ore transported in, the warehouse cannot be opened to release grain.

So Zhao Cheng had to pay for the first batch of food himself.

The county government treasury was not managed by Zhao Cheng, but was in the hands of Zhu Zhubu. However, the operation on this aspect was gray, and County Magistrate Pei agreed to it and could not issue administrative orders on the surface, so he could not perform flexible operations.

While thinking, I walked, when I passed by the tea shop, I was listening to a book with relish.

Zhao Cheng shouted, "A Qi."

"Here's the boss." Guijiaoqi ran over.

Zhao Cheng said: "You go to the wooden workshop now to see if we have made our custom slingshot fork last time."

Ghost Foot Qi scratched his head and said, "It's only been a few days now, and it probably hasn't been made yet. We have customized 500 pairs, which are not as fast as the quantity is large."

"No matter how much you make, you can still go there, take away the first batch, call a few coolies you know, rent three platters, and then come to Xinfengliang No. 1, Chengnan. "

After Zhao Cheng gave the order, he rushed to Xinfeng Grain No....

"Yao, Zhao Ai Si Da Jia, what's the point of being there for a small shop?"

I have a good administrative status, at least I won’t be fooled by these guys, so it’s easier to talk and negotiate.

So I sat down at the second largest grain stall in Chizhou and drank a cup of tea, and by the way, I agreed to get the first batch of ten stone rice at a price of three per stone.

This price is basically close to their cost price.

The expected flood this year did not occur as expected, so as the new grain was on the market, the grain prices were still slightly lower. The approaching new grain listing meant that they needed to store inventory and reuse the "discount promotion" of the old grain from the previous year. In addition, Zhao Cheng has an administrative status, so even if the quantity is small, he can get a preferential wholesale price.

In addition, it would be a question of how much it would be if someone else bought them. But Zhao Cheng would definitely not be so painful when he bought them.

Almost Guijiaoqi also came with a few coolies, and along with a scattered tray, quickly loading these hundreds of kilograms of grain into the truck.

"There are only more than ninety pairs of slingshots and forks now, and I have brought them all." Guijiaoqi patted the package on his back again.

When passing by the county government office, I went in and called a team of people with knives to accompany me. Otherwise, it would be difficult to ensure that I would not be harassed by mountain people or bandits.

The balance is barely there. As long as the official officers participate in the accompanying journey, they will not be harassed, and even if the bandits have the advantage in their strength, they will not be chaotic.

However, this is only temporary. Once the balance is broken, it will basically enter a disorderly state similar to that of Africa in later generations. Once it really enters, it will be difficult to turn things around. It will require a lot of people to be killed. The official army in the Song Dynasty basically does not have this quality.

So this is the reason why the four major bandits with extremely lethality will be caused by this year. When Tong Guan Pingfang La, he used a large army of 100,000.

As for Zhang Shuye’s relatively bunker, Sanbai Urban Management will teach Song Jiang and others to be a human being.

To a certain extent, Cai You criticized Su's argument at the academy was correct. Continuing to adopt a relaxed and stable policy seemed very cowardly, because Cai You knew what kind of urinary nature of the government army under his rule was. When he did not have the ability to suppress bandits, he would destroy the balance. In addition to pulling the bandits' anger, he could also let the bandits see the weakness of the government, thereby amplifying their courage to plan things in advance.

This is the key point when Cai Jing criticizes Zhao Tingzhi.

Neither of them is good, and they all have their own reasons. As for Zhao Cheng, he now prefers Cai You's point of view. If you are not sure, don't poke it. The kingly way is to develop vulgar development.
