Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 219 Blue training card, 【Dragon Babu】

In the county government office of Changning County, a monk with a sinister and vicious appearance, wearing a black monk robe, sat majestically on the head of the county government office.

This scene seems quite inconsistent.

But at this time, the original county government officials seemed to have no objection at all, and they were in a hurry, constantly summarizing various problems encountered in the city today, and handing them to him, asking him to deal with them.

The original magistrate Jiang of Changning County was already old and weak.After receiving Dao Yan and knowing that there was a plague in the city, he was frightened and frightened for a while, and finally fell ill directly, and could no longer handle political affairs.

Shi Xiaowei was born in the army, and he was good at marching and fighting, but dealing with political affairs was obviously not his forte.Therefore, the entire Changning county government lost its presiding officer after the county magistrate Jiang fell ill, and immediately lost the ability to operate.

With such a situation in the city, it is obvious that the county government cannot be allowed to stop functioning.

At this time, Dao Yan asked himself to preside over the county government.In desperation, Shi Xiaowei had no choice but to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

But I don't want to, this monk Daoyan not only has superb medical skills, but also can maintain the lives of people suffering from plague.The ability is still so outstanding that he actually runs the county government in an orderly manner.

"Master, another 33 patients were found in the city, and the Qingshou Temple where the patients were housed has 330 patients at this time."

"Kang'anfang City in the city has been vacated before. After finding a patient, I will send it there to take care of it!"

When Dao Yan said this, he suddenly raised his head and said again:

"There are only 11 doctors and doctors in the city. They work day and night, and their bodies must be extremely tired. The patients discovered today don't need to be divided into two groups, and they are changed every six hours."

In border towns, there are naturally not many doctors.Of the eleven doctors, most of them are military doctors with the army.Fortunately, Dao Yan was proficient in medical skills and prescribed a prescription. Although he could not cure the plague, it could still maintain the lives of patients.

"Yes!"

Dao Yan nodded, continued to lower his head, and dealt with the official business in hand.

Immediately, another official came forward and said:

"Master, the patrol officers and soldiers have captured 27 people who left without permission and resettled Fangshi, how should we deal with them?"

Dao Yan didn't raise his head, and said in a flat voice:

"kill!"

At this time, the officials already knew that Master Daoyan was no ordinary monk, so they were not surprised by his words.

"Master, the government office has sent a second batch of supplies, most of which are medicinal herbs. Because the rations of 10 people are needed, the food and grass in my city have already bottomed out!"

Hundreds of thousands of refugees, even if they lie still, need tens of thousands of shi for daily food rations.If it weren't for this ignorance of the future that brought a lot of military rations that have not been used up, it would be impossible to maintain it at this time.

"Urge the government office to find a way to send more food and grass. The medicinal materials can be put away first. In addition, the rations supplied to the refugees in the market will be reduced by [-]% starting tomorrow!" Dao Yan said solemnly .

Dao Yan said a few words at this time, although he was still plain, it made the officials present feel slightly chilled.

Those who need medicinal materials most these days are those who are suffering from the plague.But now that they are sick, they are weak and unable to cause turmoil.

In comparison, hundreds of thousands of hungry refugees are more dangerous.

Although the words were not clear, it also secretly expressed the meaning of giving up the patient at any time.

And at this moment, there was a sudden "plop" in the county government office.

Then, a voice of panic and panic was heard:
"Plague, he has the plague!"

When the officials in the county yamen heard the words, they trembled all over, showing fear and fear on their faces.

"plague?"

"Isn't the county government office guarded and ordinary people can't enter? Why would someone get the plague?"

The news of the plague is enough to turn people's faces.

The officials in the county government and the soldiers stationed there are also ordinary people, so how could they not be afraid?It's just that some people are because of their duties, and some people are afraid of the country, law and military law because of the strict orders of the top, so they suppress the fear in their hearts.

Now that he suddenly heard that someone around him was infected with the plague, the fear that was suppressed in his heart could no longer be contained.

A young official, with a face full of fear, shouted in a panic:
"Let's run, the city is full of people suffering from the plague, and Changning County is hopeless..."

Before the words fell, Dao Yan put down the official document in his hand with a cold face, stepped on his feet, and appeared behind the young official in the midst of moving his body, stretched out his fingers and tapped lightly.

The panicked young official's eyes suddenly went dark, and he collapsed to the ground.

Dao Yan waved his monk's robe, and stopped looking at the official, and went straight to the outside.

When Dao Yan left, the officials at the side remembered Dao Yan's incomparably fierce and murderous temperament before, and panicked in his heart, he stretched out his hand tremblingly, and stretched it out under the nose of the young official.

When it was found that the young official was still breathing, the people next to him finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But at this time, Dao Yan walked to the place where the commotion happened just now.

Then I saw outside a hall in the county government office, a group of officials looked frightened and avoided them from a distance.An officer was lying on the ground at this time, his face was hot and flushed, and his brows were tightly knit.

Looking at it like this, it looks like he is suffering from the plague.

Dao Yan frowned, but he directly took out the cloth to cover his mouth and nose, pushed away the crowd and came forward to treat the officer.

The pulse condition is swollen, the beating is only slightly fast, and the tongue image is still normal.It's not a plague, it's more like the wind and cold that enters the body after fatigue.

After Dao Yan confirmed again, he stood up slowly, and in the astonished eyes of all the officials, he suddenly tore off the cloth, and said immediately:
"It's not a plague, it's just a cold!"

Daoyan is a monk, but he also practiced Taoism, Yin-Yang, and Confucianism.It is also because of his family background and his powerful medical skills.

Nowadays, in Changning County, in the face of the shortage of doctors and doctors, most of the patients' lives can be barely maintained, all thanks to Dao Yan's medical skills.

At this time, when he spoke, all the officials were dubious, but they were not as flustered as before, and regained a bit of reason.

At this time, Dao Yan originally thought, let everyone go back and continue to deal with official duties.But looking around, I saw a group of officials with tired faces and panic in their eyes. They were all in a trance, their thoughts stopped, and they stood there blankly, not knowing what to think.

When Dao Yan saw this, his heart suddenly sank.

This appearance is obviously the appearance of the officials who are discouraged and have no confidence.

He stood there, silent for a long time, thinking of ways in his mind.

But when everyone was silent, there was a sudden gust of wind.

The originally bright sunshine was suddenly covered by clouds, making the sky a bit gloomy.

Then they heard the sound of "bang dang" breaking, and everyone followed the prestige.

I saw the county government plaque hanging on the county government lobby not far away, blown off by the strong wind, smashed hard on the ground, smashed to pieces, and made a huge noise.

All the officials came back to their senses, and their expressions suddenly became ugly.

The plaque was blown off, but it was not an ominous omen, and it was not uncommon in previous years.

But under the scene at this time, the plaque suddenly fell, which gave people a feeling, as if it was a warning from heaven and earth.

Could it be that Changning County is hopeless?
Thinking of this, all the officials couldn't help but show frustration, sighed several times, and remained silent for a long time.

But at this time, Dao Yan turned his head to look at the plaque that fell on the ground, but suddenly an inexplicable familiar illusion appeared in his heart.

Under Fu Ling's heart, Dao Yan suddenly laughed, pointed at the broken plaque, and blurted out:
"Hahaha, the plaque on the county government office fell, which is a good omen! After we have cured the plague, we will reward the court for meritorious service. At that time, you will be promoted to official positions! At that time, you will not be promoted to the government office The post is to be transferred to the central government, so why is it necessary to stay in this county government office and not be able to display your talents?"

At this time, the clouds were blown by the strong wind, and the bright sunshine that was originally covered was projected down again, filling the county office, as if reflecting what Dao Yan had just said.

In the hearts of all the officials, they may not necessarily believe Dao Yan's words.But sometimes, when people are in despair, they always need a little hope.

At this time, a glimmer of hope suddenly emerged in the hearts of all the officials.The original frustration in my heart dissipated, and everyone's faces recovered a little, and they were no longer as depressed as before.
-
Not far from Changning County, an old man with a dignified appearance and a deep imposing manner was carrying two long swords, one black and one white, standing upright, looking at the distant county town with his hands behind his back, with a pensive look on his face.

At this time, behind the old man, there came the crisp sound of "tick-tick" and the sound of chanting.

"Travel far away, and look around freely. The sky and the earth are so vast, and the mountains and rivers are vast. The birds fly separately, and the trees are empty and desolate. Climbing to see thousands of miles, nostalgia for the past makes my heart sad. Standing and looking at the floating clouds, I am peacefully flying in the wind."

The poems chanted by this person are extremely grand, without the sourness of the words chosen carefully.At first glance, it seems to express the nobility of sages and hermits entrusting mountains and rivers.

But the last sentence in the poem still expresses the ambition in the hearts of future people.

The old man turned his head and saw a thin middle-aged man riding a well-groomed donkey, reciting poems, and heading towards Changning County along the official road.

Seeing the middle-aged man heading towards Changning County, the old man frowned, and immediately reminded him:
"Sir, don't go forward! The plague is rampant in Changning County ahead. It's not a good place to go. Let's return quickly."

The middle-aged man riding the donkey heard the words, immediately reined in the donkey, smiled at the old man, cupped his hands and said:
"Thank you for reminding me, old man! It's just the destination of this trip, which is here."

Hearing this, the old man said again:

"The plague is getting worse here, nothing is more important than your own life! You should leave as soon as possible."

The middle-aged man heard the words, but shook his head slightly, and said:
"The old man misunderstood, my destination is here, not the county town!"

Hearing this, the old man was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously asked:

"Here? What are you doing here?"

The middle-aged man looked the old man up and down, and stayed on the black and white swords behind the old man for a long time, but suddenly smiled meaningfully, saying:

"Perhaps the purpose of the old man is the same! To see if what I have learned in this body is worth entrusting to the Lord!"

When the old man heard this, his eyes flashed.Immediately, he cupped his hands slightly, and said in a deep voice:
"A member of the Zongheng family, Zhang Yue!"

The middle-aged man hurriedly got off the donkey, turned slightly sideways, and saluted:
"I'm Liu Ji, I've met Mr. Zhang Lao!"

Force 90, Literature 74, Wisdom 74, Morality 38, Age 30, Domination 60, Politics 58, Charm 78, Loyalty 100, Ambition 90]

In Yunguo Imperial Palace, Xiao Cheng couldn't help but smacked his lips when he saw the flashing blue card in front of him.

Speaking of which, I once had a Dika of [Dali Taizu], so I can barely be regarded as Duan Yu's ancestor...

Xiao Cheng let out a laugh, and closed the golden finger panel with some disappointment.

Even if the world is upgraded between today and earth, the restraint and restrictions on warriors in the world have been released, and it is easier for warriors to improve their cultivation and break through the realm of martial arts that is difficult for their ancestors to break through.

But even with such a change, after all, it didn't take long.Nowadays, in the Jianghu, a ninth-rank martial artist is still a rare top master.

This time a blue card directly sent four ninth-level masters to Xiao Cheng, which seemed to be a big profit.

It's just that for Xiao Cheng who is currently in charge of the huge Yunguo, these four people can only be called simple masters of the rivers and lakes.Except for force, the rest of the values ​​are really mediocre, and cannot bring much help to Xiao Cheng.

Perhaps it is precisely because it is not of great benefit to the country that this card is just a blue card.

Forget it, it’s better than nothing, after Li Chao’s side, it’s useless...

With a thought in Xiao Cheng's mind, the blue light shot straight into the sky, then turned into four blue lights and scattered away.

At this moment, Feng Bao's voice came from outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"His Majesty."

"Come in!" Xiao Cheng raised his head slightly and said in a deep voice.

Feng Bao pushed open the palace door, trotted over, bowed to Xiao Cheng, and said:
"Your Majesty Qizuo, the first batch of supplies has already set off!"

Now in Zhongqing City, there are powerful miscellaneous families leading the organization in the business world, and Shen Wansan, who is quite talented in business, is helping.It is also to assist the court to stop the plague in the northern border, and all the merchants are also dedicated.

However, within ten days, the first batch of supplies had already begun to be transported to the north.

Feng Bao paused, and continued:
"This time, a total of 50 stones of grain and grass and 130 vehicles of various medicinal materials were dispatched. The merchants dispatched their own manpower and transportation capacity to send them to the northern border. The [-] troops sent from the camp on the outskirts of Beijing will escort them to arrive safely... This time, thanks to Zajia and Shen Wansan, the dispatch is stable, so prices in Beijing and China have only risen slightly, not serious."

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng nodded slightly, but his mind was a little heavy, and he said:

"These supplies seem to be a lot, but we don't know how serious the plague will be in the northern border, so it may not be enough."

In fact, if it is just to isolate the inside and outside, and let the people in the northern border fend for themselves, naturally they don't need too many supplies, but Xiao Cheng obviously can't choose that way!

Fortunately, there are not many rich and fertile lands in the territory of Yun Kingdom.Moreover, many of the lands in the small countries in the south annexed by Wang Xiao's troops are treasure lands that can be grown three times a year.So for Yun Country, food is not precious.

If there is such a big move in Xia Guo to buy grain and grass at this time, I am afraid that the momentum of grain and grass rising will be unstoppable.

But even so, if the plague is too severe and cannot be resolved for a long time, the price of food and grass will rise, which will naturally be unstoppable.

People are greedy, and merchants are even more profit-oriented.At that time, I am afraid that some people will find it difficult to resist greed and hoard odds in order to obtain huge profits, making the situation even more difficult.

Xiao Cheng moved his eyes, looked up at Feng Bao, and said in a deep voice:

"Do you still have enough manpower in your East Factory?"

When Feng Bao heard the words, he immediately understood what Xiao Cheng meant.

He bowed slightly, and replied in a deep voice:

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I can assure you that as long as Your Majesty thinks, no one can escape Dongchang's eyes in my Dayun territory! These merchants, my servant will pay attention!"

Xiao Cheng nodded slightly, and said:

"Just in case, don't let the loyal people feel chilled by showing their traces!"

"Yes……"

Speaking of this, Feng Bao suddenly thought of something, hesitating for a while, carefully leaned into Xiao Cheng's ear, and whispered a few words.

Hearing what Feng Bao said, Xiao Cheng frowned, and said coldly:
"Oh, such a person who can't figure it out, the miscellaneous family is really... You send someone to pass on my oral order, tell Jin Shengyuan, let him reprimand his disciples! The situation in the northern border is difficult now, and I don't want to see such a situation again. Something happened!"

Obviously, what Feng Bao just whispered into Xiao Cheng's ear was the matter between that miscellaneous family, Jin Tangfeng, and Shen Wansan.

Seeing this, Feng Bao hurriedly bowed and said:

"Yes!"

At this time, Feng Bao was suddenly delighted, and subconsciously touched the large bank note that Shen Wansan had sent before, which had been hidden in his sleeve.

At this time, Xiao Cheng suddenly seemed to have reacted, his eyes moved, and he turned to look at Feng Bao, playing around:

"After all, this matter did not delay anything. It is not a big deal. Why do you have to ask you, the governor of the East Factory, to say something more?"

Feng Bao, who hadn't been happy for a long time, suddenly felt a sudden pang in his heart, and beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead.

His legs were trembling, and he was about to defend himself a few words.But even though he thought so in his heart, his body subconsciously softened his knees, knelt down on the ground, kowtowed to apologize, and stammered:

"Slave, slave... I know I was wrong, please, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Cheng looked at Feng Bao quietly for a long time, then said quietly:

"What's wrong?"

Feng Bao trembled all over, filled with regret and fear, he quickly took out the bank note in his sleeve, raised it above his head, and said in a trembling voice:
"Wrong, wrong in accepting bribes from outside the palace!"

Xiao Cheng shook his head slightly, and said coldly:

"Wrong, the mistake is that you have the guts to play tricks in front of me. My trusted eunuchs love money, and I don't mind if someone tries to please you. But as my only eye, don't have your own thoughts! Otherwise, I don't mind deducting it."

Feng Bao's heart was suddenly filled with fear, beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, he kowtowed repeatedly, and said loudly:

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty! Please forgive me, Your Majesty..."

Xiao Cheng's expression softened slightly, and he said in a deep voice:

"Remembering your meritorious service and hard work, I will reward you with a silver ticket, and I will not be an example!"

Hearing this, Feng Bao breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly knelt down to thank you, saying:
"Slave, thank you, thank you Your Majesty for your reward!"
