Chapter 58 Strong Man
"I wonder how much Feng Langjun wants?" Li Yi thought about it in his mind. Those disabled veterans basically crawled out of the dead. They have been in the army for a long time and can do nothing but kill. , everyone in the countryside has a headache, let’s continue to be in the military, they still can’t do anything, they are just freeloaders. Now that someone wants to take over, that would be a great thing! Maybe they won't even have to pay the pension, and just give it all to the lunatic Feng in front of him - a stupid person with a lot of money, what is he other than a lunatic?
As for those pensions? Is it easy for me to find you a place where you can take care of yourself in old age and arrange jobs for your family members? It’s good that I didn’t ask you for activity funds, but you also want a pension?
“The more the better.”
I would like more, but I guess you don’t dare to give it all to me. Feng Yong knew this in his heart, and Li Yi knew it in his heart. Feng Yong knew it in his heart.
"Thirty veterans, only about ten households can support their families. I wonder if that's okay?" Li Yi tentatively gave a number. Compared with the difficulty of resettling officials, there are not so many concerns in resettling veterans. After all, they are all Han people, so the local government will not exclude too many people. As for whether those veterans are willing to come over, this is not something that needs to be considered at all - this is just like the future generations who ask you to move from the poorest mountainous areas to Beijing, give you a house, and are responsible for providing you with old age care and arranging jobs for your family members. Are you willing? Not willing? As long as the IQ exceeds the average human level, everyone knows how to choose.
"Okay!" Feng Yong said simply, "When can we arrive?"
"I can't say for sure, but it will take more than a month at the earliest, but please rest assured Feng Langjun." This time, Li Yi was confident that the sale of prisoners was due to the instructions of the prime minister, and he could not make the decision, but this placement of veterans But it was within the scope of his father's responsibilities, and it was a good thing to relieve the country's worries. Who dared to force him? Mr. Li has even made up his mind to have a plan if someone obstructs him, that is to ask the old killers to come and reason with them: I worked hard in the army and lost my arms and legs. Governor Li thinks we are pitiful. , it took a lot of effort to find a good home for a favor, but why are you so embarrassed?
So this good thing that benefits the country and the people was settled happily.
After sending Li Yi away, Feng Yong felt that he had done a good deed and gained benefits for himself. Feng Yong felt refreshed and his mind was active. After thinking about it, Feng Yong called the housekeeper over again and asked him to quickly gather the people in the village and dig holes on the hills behind the village before it was busy in autumn.
“Dig a hole?” The housekeeper didn’t quite understand what Feng Yong meant, “Master, where do you plan to drive the chickens in the future?”
When he was raising chickens in the past, Feng Yong told his housekeeper about this plan. In the future, when the flock of chickens gets bigger, he will put the chickens directly on the mountain to raise them, dig a few holes under the slope, let the chickens stay there at night, and arrange some people to watch them. .
It's just that when the hatched chickens are half-grown, they are all given to the farmers in the village. The chicken flock in the house has not expanded much at all. The owner of the house has begun to dig holes on the hillside, which makes the housekeeper a little strange.
"It's not for chickens, it's for people." Feng Yong still respected this loyal housekeeper and explained, "In a few days, the court will arrange for several officials to come to our house, all because of the war. Those who just came from the south will be our servants from now on."
When the housekeeper heard this, he frowned and looked to see if there was no one around. Then he came over and whispered to Feng Yong, "Have you offended someone?"
“No!” Feng Yong was at a loss.
"If I'm not offended, then why does the imperial court want our family to accept those barbarians?" The housekeeper was a little excited, "How can those barbarians be easy to deal with? I heard from people that some of them are savages and cannibals of human flesh. When we get to the village, won’t we make people panic?”
In these troubled times, is it weird to eat human flesh? When Lao Cao was short of food, where do you think the meat in the army came from?
The housekeeper was still a little unhappy: "My lord, even if the experienced officials know how to farm, they still can't compare with the Han people, let alone most of them are wives? Could it be that my lord has been deceived..."
"I have my own sense of discretion. After all, it is a good thing to share the worries of the court. Besides, those barbarians are just occupying a few holes on the slope, and we are not building houses for them."
As soon as these words came out, the housekeeper almost jumped up. He expressed strong concern about his master's idea of linking Liaoman and the house, and forcibly popularized the values of the Han Dynasty to his master: Liaoman is not always harmonious in the south. Do they live in trees like monkeys? When will you live in the house?
Feng Yong was dumbfounded by the butler’s sincere teachings—do you really not regard others as human beings?
In the previous life, how many city people wanted to live in other people’s bamboo houses but couldn’t! In which case do you look down on others? Unexpectedly, in the eyes of Han Dynasty people, all the people living in bamboo houses were monkeys? How can a monkey be so awesome?
After confirming that his master showed no signs of illness, the housekeeper hurriedly went to arrange manpower. Apparently he was afraid that Feng Yong would regret it and make a joke.
Feng Yong had been sitting there in silence after the housekeeper left.
Feng Yong has always felt that he is not from the Han Dynasty, or he feels that he is not a real Han Dynasty person. He has always looked at everything in this world from a lofty perspective, just like God looks at all living beings.
This is also the reason why Zhuge Liang and others think that Feng Yong is a disciple of a master from outside the world, because Feng Tuluo's pride of looking down on the world is always revealed consciously or unconsciously.
But now, a certain country bumpkin feels that he has been educated by a native.
The housekeeper’s words were actually very common, at least in the eyes of the Han Dynasty people. Everyone thought it was a normal thing. But just such words, which were ordinary and normal in the eyes of others, touched Feng Yong deep in his heart.
The state of Heng was destroyed by weakness, but the Han Dynasty alone was destroyed by strength!
To this day, he suddenly felt how deeply these words shocked his heart.
Because the Han people at this time also had an innate pride: Do civilizations other than the Han people deserve to be called civilization?
This is not a pride born out of obscenity, but a pride built up from generation to generation. In the past, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing went to the Northern Expedition to expel the Xiongnu during the Han Dynasty. Later, there was the Dinghu stele erected during the reign of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty. "Everywhere the sun and the moon shine, and wherever the rivers reach, they are all ministers and concubines of the Han Dynasty." Then there is Chen Tang's "Ming Dynasty". Anyone who offends the powerful Han will be killed no matter how far away it is." There are also historical records that "South Vietnam kills Han envoys and slaughters them into nine counties; King Wan kills Han envoys and heads the county of Beique; North Korea kills Han envoys and annihilates them immediately!"
But they didn’t know that this pride would be shattered by the barbarians less than a hundred years later! And the culprit of all this is the idiot representative chosen by those powerful families in the north!
In the Central Plains, countless sons and daughters of the Han family have become the Husband's rations, but those aristocratic families who claim to represent the world have run away, run away, and gone to the south to continue their fun...
“They are just a bunch of bastards!” Feng Yong said to himself.
