The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 872

[Chapter 872 Earthquake]

Oak-hee’s plan to recruit troops from other provinces went smoothly, and the young men passed the checkpoint one after another and arrived at Gaocheng. In just over two months, 34,000 people were recruited. Of course, this is the number of people in the four provinces combined.

Yun Qing came back from the military camp that day, and said to Oak Xi, “Most of the people who were sent here are yellow-faced and skinny. I have asked the military doctor to examine them, and the military doctor said that these people are not sick, but hungry. As long as they have enough food and drink, they will soon be able to raise them back.” Their people also have conditions to benefit those officials, that is, the people who send them must be healthy and not sick. So the people sent this time are in good health.

Oak Xi said, “How many people can have enough food now?” Excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes are more fierce than tigers, not to mention that several surrounding provinces have been suppressing bandits and quelling rebellions, and the life of the common people is miserable. If you can survive, your life is already big, and you can’t ask for more.

Yun Qing snorted: “This time we recruited 34,000 strong men, plus the 2,800 bandits who came to join the army, it’s still a little short of 50,000.”

Oak Xi said, “It’s not less than ten thousand people. He Rui, I don’t think it’s appropriate to recruit troops in the northwest. The common people are going to recruit soldiers after two days of peace. They should be panicking.” It’s like going to die. No one wants to send their son or husband to die. And they weren’t in a situation where they couldn’t help, so Oak-hee felt that there was really no need to recruit troops in the northwest.

Yun Qing felt that Yuxi’s words made sense: “It would be good to collect some people from the surrounding area. After training for a year and a half, when the time comes, they will all be brave and invincible.”

Oak Xi shook his head and said, “We’ve moved too far, and we’ve already alarmed those people. Even if we pay double the price, we won’t be able to buy anyone.” Those who bought it were all the officials below, and the people above didn’t know it when they started. It’s just that they are facing four provinces, and the action is too big, and these people have already noticed it.

Yun Qing said, “How much did the 30,000 people recruited cost in total?” Yu Xi was good at managing money, so Yu Xi managed the finances. However, Oak Xi would tell Yunqing about his income and expenses every month.

Oak-hee said, “Including the rebate, it cost a total of 970,000 yuan.” Oak-hee felt that the money was well worth it. It is also now that they are loose on their hands, or they can’t put it into action even if they have this idea. This is also why Yan Wushuang envy Yuxi and his wife, they can do everything with money.

Yun Qing said, “It’s a bit too much.” If he recruited troops directly in the northwest, the money would be saved. However, Yun Qing also knew that Oak Xi did this for the long-term development of the Northwest.

Yuxi shook his head and said, “On average, it’s less than thirty taels of silver per person, so it’s not too expensive.” Thirty taels of silver to buy a strong labor force is not a loss.

After a pause, Yuxi said, “These people have all suffered, and they should be very obedient when they arrive at the barracks.” Not to mention other things in the army, it is guaranteed that they are fed and clothed. Those who can sell it must have a hard life at home, and they will naturally cherish such a good life in the military camp. Of course, Oak-hee was talking about most of the people.

Yun Qing nodded and said, “It’s really obedient. This hot day has made them train for four and a half hours a day. Not a single one said a word. The bandits are also trained honestly and are not picky. It was also because of the performance of these people that Yunqing felt that although the price was a bit high, it was still worth it.

The husband and wife had another conversation and were about to go to bed. Suddenly I heard a loud knock on the door outside. Soon, Licorice came over and said, “Your Highness, Princess, Master Xu said that there are 800-mile dispatches delivered.” Usually, the 800-mile dispatches are delivered only during wars.

The husband and wife both had the same idea, the Babaili Express must have been attacked by someone. Yuxi quickly got up and put on clothes, but the woman was too slow. Yuxi had just put on a dress, and Yun Qing had already taken the Qiushui sword on the table and walked out.

Yuxi’s clothes were just put on when he saw Yun Qing folded back again. Seeing that Yun Qing’s face was very ugly, Yu Xi asked, “Did someone from the imperial court call you?” It was July, and it was extremely hot. It is definitely impossible to carry out the Beiluren at this time, and the rest is the army of the imperial court.

Yun Qing shook his head and said, “None of them, it was the earthquake that happened in Wucheng.” Those who are superstitious when they hear the earthquake will think that it is a punishment from God. Usually, when there is an earthquake, the emperor will sacrifice to the heaven to confess his sins to God.

Oak-hee was startled, and the ground moved. However, this news is better than the imperial army attacking the city. When Yuxi heard that more than 20 people had died, she frowned and said, “It seems that the ground movement is serious.”

Yun Qing nodded and said, “I have already asked Xu Wu to invite Master Tan and Uncle to come over.” Although Yun Qing likes to do it himself, he also knows that this matter cannot be solved by him, and must be solved by everyone.

Oak Xin hummed, “What we have to do now is disaster relief. If it’s too late, those survivors will be in danger.” Apart from rescuing those sexual beings, there is still a lot to do. Otherwise, an omission will lead to a big disaster.

Tan Tuo, Han Jianming and others got the news and came over immediately. Hearing that the earthquake was very serious, Tan Tuo said: “Your Highness, Princess, you must rescue the disaster as soon as possible. Not only that, but also deal with the disaster site. Otherwise, it is easy to cause a plague.” Now is the hottest season, and the corpses of those animals If it is not handled properly, it can easily lead to a plague.

The group negotiated until dawn, and finally Yuxi ordered Han Jianming so that he could go to Wucheng for disaster relief. Originally, Tan Tuo asked Ying on his own initiative, but because Tan Tuo was old, and things in Haocheng needed him to take care of him, Yuxi did not agree. As for An Zike, it just so happened that he wasn’t feeling well for the past two days. So only Han Jianming is suitable.

Although Han Jianming is Oak Xi’s eldest brother, the past two years he has taken over are all hard errands. However, Han Jianming never complained, because he knew that Yuxi had done everything he did in his heart. Although it was a bit hard and tiring, Han Jianming thought it was worth it. However, Ye Shi obviously didn’t think so.

When Mr. Ye heard Han Jianming said he was going to Wucheng for disaster relief, he began to cry: “That place is too dangerous, sir, you can’t go there.” When an accident happened, who would their orphans and widows rely on?

Han Jianming said with a cold face, “Why are you crying? I’m just going to disaster relief, so what’s the danger? Take good care of my mother and children at home. I’ll be back in a month at most.” Ye knew that he was going to do dangerous things Although he was worried and sad, he never stopped him. I don’t know why I changed my attitude this time.

Ye Shi can’t be Han Jianming’s master, and Qiu Shi is doing morning class at this time, and she doesn’t even have anyone to ask for help. Ye Shi could only endure the anxiety and worry in his heart and sent Han Jianming out of the house.

After seeing off Han Jianming, Mr. Ye didn’t go back to his yard, but went to the upper court. Can’t wait for Qiu Shi, Ye Shi told Mama Li about it. After finishing speaking, she burst into tears: “Why is the princess so cruel, all dangerous errands are done for the master, and there is no brother and sister relationship.”

Seeing this, Mama Li persuaded, “Don’t worry, Madam, the master will be fine. After a while, the master will come back safely.” If Mama Li said that Ye was concerned, it would be messed up. If it was really life-threatening, how could the princess send the master to die.

Ye Shi wiped her tears and said, “How long will it take, mother?” Hearing that there was still a quarter of an hour, Ye Shi sat down and waited.

A quarter of an hour later, Mrs. Qiu walked out of the Buddhist hall wearing a robe. Looking at Ye Shi’s red and swollen eyes, he asked, “What happened?” It was definitely not a trivial matter that could make Ye Shi cry.

Hearing that his son was going to Wucheng to rescue people, Amitabha Qiu said: “Tomorrow, this is to do good deeds, you should be happy, why are you crying?” Qiu’s current thinking is completely different from others. .

Ye Shi was choked and coughed.

Qiu waved his hand and said, “If you are not feeling well, just rest in the yard and don’t run around. Also, your body is the most important thing, and the affairs of the mansion can also be handed over to the steward.” Busy, she wanted to go to Wucheng with Han Jianming.

Ye Shi got up, bowed towards Qiu Shi Fu and said, “Mother, then I’ll go back first.” Fortunately, she knew Qiu Shi’s temperament, otherwise she would definitely think it was trying to seize power.

Oak Xi did not block the news about the earthquake in Wucheng. So the next day, the entire Ho City knew about it. Some people are spreading rumors behind the scenes, saying that the Yuxi pheasant is Sichen, so the earthquake will occur in Wucheng. This is a warning from heaven to Yunqing.

Oak Hee heard this rumor and was no longer indifferent to it. He immediately ordered all those who spread rumors to be arrested and severely punished.

Two days later, Zhezi from Wucheng came over. Yuxi breathed a sigh of relief after reading the excerpt, and said to Tan Tuo, “This earthquake was not within Wucheng, but in a small town 60 miles away from Wucheng. And the earthquake happened in the afternoon, so casualties were made. It’s not serious.” If it were at night, the number of people who died would have doubled.

Tan Tuo breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the center of the earthquake was not in Wucheng. In small towns, where the population is small, casualties will be reduced a lot.

Yuxi put the book down and said, “Fu Minglang did a good job this time.” As soon as Fu Minglang got the news, he summoned the manpower and rushed to the town. He didn’t think that his life would be in danger if he went to the town. It was also because Fu Minglang arrived in time, the victims were all settled properly, and those unclean things were quickly disposed of.

Tan Tuo said: “Master Fu is a talent.” It’s a pity that the princess is not at ease with Fu Minglang.

Yuxi was very satisfied with Fu Minglang and said, “It is indeed a talent.” As for whether to transfer to Haocheng, Yuxi had not yet decided.
