Chapter 432 How can there be such a thing as a good thing?
“Tanglang County?”
Feng Yong and Guan Ji looked at each other. Isn't this the destination of their trip?
"Yes, Tanglang County. Tanglang County borders Yueqi to the west and Wei County to the south. Yongkai once settled here. As a result, the people in Tanglang County were displaced and the land was uncultivated for a long time. If Feng Langjun is interested, as long as Reopening the manor there will surely save a lot of effort.”
Of course, it will save a lot of effort to re-cultivate mature land. As long as the weeds are removed and the eight-ox plow or curved shaft plow is used for deep plowing, it is basically the same.
Of course, if you are more particular, you can plant a season of wild beans first.
But sugarcane grows tall by nature. As long as there is base fertilizer and some careful care in the early stage, when they grow taller, there will be basically no sunlight underneath, and weeds will grow much sparser than in fields planted with other crops.
It won’t be a big problem to have people clean it up when the time comes.
So it is also possible to plant sugar cane directly without planting black beans.
Moreover, the southern part of Tanglang County happens to be where Wuchi Road passes, so the transportation is convenient.
But the key point is that since Tanglang County is such a big piece of meat, why did all the officials in Zhuti County turn a blind eye and directly give it to themselves?
Could it be that all the officials in Zhuti County are poor and happy?
Obviously this is impossible.
Among the officials in a county, there may be one, two or three who will forget their home when they are in office and sacrifice their small family for everyone else.
But most people still put their family first.
If all the officials in Zhuti County were really capable of "forgetting home when they are in office", Feng Yong would dare to go to Jincheng Wall to live broadcast how to hang himself with a flagpole.
Just look at Hanzhong and you will understand. In order to open up more land, the nobles of the Han Dynasty can even organize slave-catching teams covered with a layer of clothing like the militia. What else do they dare not?
Isn't it that you followed the late emperor and worked hard to get a job as a dragon?
What happens after you gain the power of Conglong?
In order to have a family business that can be passed down, it is best to pass it on to children and grandchildren for thousands of generations without extinction?
A family, a country, a country, of course, comes first and then the country.
There are not no people who put the country first and then the family, but they are very few, so they are respected and admired by the world.
The mainstream is to put family first and then country. The older the family is, the stronger this concept is.
That's why the big man collapsed under the indifference of the aristocratic family, or even with the help of the aristocratic family.
In the Western Jin Dynasty when aristocratic families were in power, they would even take the initiative to dismember the country in order to fight for power and gain, and welcome the Hu people to take over the Central Plains.
As for the fate of the two-legged animals under their rule, that’s none of their business—aren’t the two-legged sheep still livestock?
Although the officials of Juti County will not do anything beyond the bottom line, who would believe that all of them are full of integrity and are unmoved when faced with such a big piece of fat?
“Is this what Zhang Juncheng meant?”
Feng Yong asked with some disbelief.
"right."
He nodded his head.
“Then I wonder what Zhang Juncheng’s request is?”
"There are some remnants of the rebels in Tanglang County, and they have also gathered many officials. They are gathering in the mountains and forests, which is really a headache. Therefore, Zhang Juncheng wants to ask Feng Langjun for help."
“After Tanglang County is stabilized, Feng Langjun can reclaim half of the cultivated land in the county.”
Helping to clean up the remnants of the rebels in Tanglang County, can you get half of the cultivated land in the county?
Don't doubt Zhang Biao's ability to do such a thing.
In Feng Yong’s view, this is normal official behavior.
A pile of mature land that is left uncultivated, isn’t it considered wasteland?
It is not a simple matter to write on the household register of this county how many acres of land a certain person will open up after Tanglang County was pacified? If you have the ability, go ahead and drive it!
And there is no need to worry about any side effects.
The reconstruction work after the war should be encouraged. Is it wrong that this county magistrate is trying his best to bring people over to reclaim the land? Is there anything wrong?
It’s just that Feng Yong knew that there is no free lunch in the world. He looked at Jufu and suddenly asked, "Why did Sima teach Yong?"
gers a tremble in awe.
Looking up, he saw Feng Langjun looking at him quietly with a calm face.
The gentleman in front of me seems to be a completely different person from the smiling and approachable gentleman at the banquet.
Thinking of this, Jufu suddenly trembled.
He came here under the entrustment of Shangguan, so he subconsciously wanted to protect Shangguan.
But when he opened his mouth, he found that he had no way to speak.
Although Feng Langjun was just sitting there quietly at this time, he had a certain momentum, and the meaning in his eyes was very clear: I know there is something inside, don't try to lie to me.
Ju Fu thought to himself, if it had been anyone else, they would have lost their minds long ago when they heard that they could get half of the cultivated land in a county. It is really rare for Feng Langjun to see benefits and keep his mind calm.
Zhang Juncheng saw that Feng Langjun was young, so he thought of fooling him, but he may have miscalculated.
Thinking of the reputation of "Feng Langjun, who is clever with his words and charming, and Xiao Wenhe, who is ruthless and ruthless", Gofu sighed. How can a person with such a reputation be of Yi Yu's generation? Zhang Juncheng looked down on people too much.
After thinking in a dilemma for a long time, Jufu finally cursed in his heart that he was playing the ball. I am really stupid!
I got the position of military commander because of Wang Zijun, not because of Zhang Boda.
Every prince can get the position of general of the gangsters, isn’t it because of Feng Langjun in front of him?
If you don’t embrace the thigh in front of you, are you going to take the blame for Zhang Boda?
“Do you know, Mr. Feng Lang, that the governor of Yuejun, the governor of Gong, was killed by the barbarians a few days ago?”
After Jufu thought about it, he spoke.
“Prefect Gong?”
Feng Yong asked doubtfully. He really didn't know about this. "Didn't the Prime Minister's army just leave Yuejun? Why did the Yi people rebel again?"
“Gong Taishou accompanied the Prime Minister on the southern expedition, and after pacifying Yue Jun, he stayed in Yue Jun to care for the people. Unexpectedly, just after the Prime Minister’s army withdrew, Li Qiucheng, the commander of Yue Jun Yi, rebelled.”
"Gonggonggonggong went to quell the rebellion, but he did not expect that he would bring too few soldiers with him. Instead, he was killed by Li Qiucheng."
Feng Yong was shocked, "How can the Yi people from Yuejun be so rampant?"
Jufu smiled bitterly and said, "Feng Langjun doesn't know. Although Yuejun is not as chaotic as it was when Gaoding was there, looking at the entire Yuejun County, there are rebellions from time to time, and many counties and villages are occupied by the barbarians. , even the county magistrate and county magistrate dare not take office."
"And Tanglang County is adjacent to Yuejun, and it was once the place where Yongkai was entrenched. It is the same as the Yi people in Yuejun County, so Zhang Juncheng is also having a headache."
“Now we can only use the Five Feet Road to guard the southern part of Tanglang County. As for the land adjacent to Yuejun in the west, there is nothing we can do.”
“So Zhang Juncheng wanted to give me the cultivated land in the west of Tanglang County, but he took the land in the south for himself?”
After listening to what Jufu said, Feng Yong finally asked.
“Zhang Juncheng…has this plan.”
Jufu didn’t dare to look at the change in Feng Yong’s expression.
"I see."
Feng Yong nodded and said calmly.
This made Jufu a little surprised. He didn't expect that Feng Langjun could be so calm.
"I'm sorry to ask Sima. Please go back and tell Zhang Juncheng that I will consider this matter."
So Jufu left with full of doubts.
After sending Jufu away, Feng Yong asked people to call Zhao Guang and Li Yi and told them about the matter.
When Zhao Guang heard this, he jumped up and down, "Brother, that watch is so good at planning, isn't it? He will get the good things, but let us bear all the bad things?"
Li Yi also agreed, "Even if we can pacify the Yi people in the west of Tanglang County, as long as Yuejun is uneasy, how can the west of Tanglang County be peaceful? Doesn't this list clearly ask us to help him? Block the Yi people from Yuejun in the west?"
Feng Yong looked at Li Yi and asked, "Wenxuan also thinks Yue Jun is hard to decide?"
Li Yi nodded, "It's easy but hard is difficult! Of the five counties in Nanzhong, Zangke has Nanyi Road, Zhuti has Wuchi Road, and Wuchi Road is connected to Yizhou County Official Road, so these three counties are all controllable. Although Yongchang County is an isolated territory, it is stable with loyal people like Wang and his wife Lu Kai."
"There is only one county in Yuejun. Although it is close to Jianwei County, it is difficult to travel through mountains and is isolated from the Han Dynasty. Otherwise, Gaoding would not have allowed Sui Yuejun to stay for nearly ten years without doing anything about it."
Hearing this, Feng Yong also sighed and nodded to agree with Li Yi's words.
