Chapter 353 New way out

Chapter 353 New way out

What Zhou Lin said was sincere, but the villagers in Dawangzhuang just lowered their heads and dared not speak.

Some didn't care, while others were full of guilt.

Those who are sensible, know that the court repaired the embankment is for the benefit of themselves and others, with shame on their faces, when they are said to be uncomfortable and want to go out, they are held back by their wives, and they turn their heads to look. His wife's vicissitudes of life are full of dissuasion, shaking her head and looking at the family behind her.

The moment he saw his family members, the original enthusiasm also calmed down.

And the result here is that even if Zhou Lin, the servant of the left, broke his throat, none of the people dared to stand up.

Zhou Lin is like a theater clown, speaking and persuading each village.

But nothing worked.

Everyone knows the strength of the Zhao family in Bian'an County, and no one dares to defy it.

When Zhou Lin returned to the barracks after dark, he still couldn't hide the disappointment on his face when he saw Li Dingguo.

"General Li, I said that I broke my throat today, but none of the common people came to help me."

Li Dingguo smiled and shook his head, and after asking him to sit down and take the two of them to dinner, Li Dingguo said: "Master Zhou's direction is wrong, no one wants to be a civilian husband, it's not that the common people don't know how to be grateful, what's good or bad.

The real key to this matter lies in the Zhao family. The Zhao family has too much influence in Yunzhou County. Before the Zhao family speaks, even if these people know that what you said is right, they will never dare to come to help. "

"Then what should we do?" Zhou Lin asked with a worried face.

As he said that, he couldn't help but get himself a glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp, using the wine to relieve his worries.

This was specially prepared by Li Dingguo for him, because he knew that he would never go well today.

Just when Zhou Lin was worried, Li Dingguo smiled and took out a secret letter from his arms and handed it over.

"Senior Zhou, take a look."

Looking at the envelope handed over, Zhou Lin looked puzzled, but still took it and opened it, and read it carefully.

Who knows just looked at it and smiled, and stood up abruptly!
There was a look of horror on his face!

"what!"

It's no wonder that Zhou Lin reacted so strongly, it was because the news in the letter was so shocking.

Just across the river from them, another uprising broke out in Daxing County!
Daxing County is the largest iron ore producing area in northern Hunan. There are a large number of iron ore in the county. In order to excavate these iron ore, the mine owners in Daxing County have hired a full 20 people to mine the minerals day and night.

Everything was going well in the first place, the mine owner paid the wages, and the miners worked hard.

But there are always those greedy people who are half a month in arrears at first, then a month, two months, half a year, and the most extreme ones are a whole year in arrears.

Moreover, he also threatened the miners in his own mine that if they did not continue to mine for him, they would not be able to get a penny of the wages they were owed for a year.

But year after year, the so-called wages have never been paid. On the contrary, many miners have had accidents because of mining.

In this regard, a normal mine owner loses money and settles the matter, but how could someone who is in arrears even pay the money and just throw the corpse in the mass grave area.

This matter finally angered the miners who had already been suppressed to the extreme, and then a riot ensued.

Nearly 20 able-bodied miners rioted, but the government servants in Daxing County were broken without stopping for a moment.

Until yesterday, the entire Daxing County was occupied by rioting miners, and the bastard who owed them wages was hung on the railing to endure the wind and sun.

The county magistrate who colluded with the mine owners, officials and businessmen was tied aside and asked him to watch the sunrise and sunset with the unscrupulous mine owners.

The news of Daxing County quickly spread to the capital, and the order from the capital quickly came down.

It happened that the Pingwa army was in Bian'an, across the river in northern Hunan, so today's emperor transferred the Japanese army to quell the rebellion.

Li Dingguo didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but he completely ignored the court's order.

But seeing Zhou Lin's sad face and the almost crumbling embankment, Li Dingguo finally softened his heart. After discussing with his brothers and sending a letter of advice to Yunzhou County.

Then came to find Zhou Lin.

Zhou Lin looked at the channel: "Your Majesty asked you to go to the Qingbei in Xiangbei?"

Li Dingguo nodded.

"Then what do you mean by showing me this, is it possible?" Zhou Lin had some guesses in his mind, but he wasn't sure.

Li Dingguo helped him to affirm it.

"Since there is no one in Bian'an County, we can't find anyone to help build the embankment, so we will look for it from other places.

It just happened that this happened in Daxing County. After we went to put down the rebellion, the generals brought all of them back to build the embankment, so wouldn't you have a helper? "

Zhou Lin still hesitated: "But they are all rebels?!"

But Li Dingguo shook his head and said: "So what? If you don't tell me, I won't tell, who else knows?

At that time, I will directly report and wipe out all of them. After the river embankment is repaired, I will be responsible for taking them away, and I will never let them appear in the pass again.

Wouldn't that be killing three birds with one stone!
You get people, they get jobs, I get people.

Zhou Shilang, is there anything else to consider? "

Having said everything so clearly, Zhou Lin didn't continue to be hypocritical.

Dang even nodded in agreement.

The situation in Bian'an County is now like this, but the construction of the river embankment cannot be stopped.

Otherwise, there is not enough time. Since the local people in Bian'an County are unwilling to repair it, let the Pingwa Army bring those people to repair it.

The living can't be suffocated to death by urine!

Having made a decision, Zhou Lin asked again: "How long will it take you to bring the person?"

In this regard, Li Dingguo said:
"Just a bunch of miners.

Counting back and forth, up to seven days!
After seven days, I will bring these 20 people back. You have to prepare a place for them to live in, as well as supplies, money and food to start building embankments. Can this be done? "

Zhou Lin nodded and said: "That's no problem. The large ships transporting money, food and materials have already arrived at the border between Bianjing and Bian'an County for a long time, and they can go down the river from the border of Bianjing at any time. I just need to send out a signal, and the material ship will arrive sooner or later!"

After Li Dingguo heard the words, he immediately slapped the table and stood up and said: "Okay, since everything is ready, I only owe Dongfeng. I will go to Daxing to borrow Dongfeng!"

"General Lao!"

……

Heyue Mansion, Zhao Family.

"Patriarch! There is news from Huangshan Mountain!"

The housekeeper of the Zhao family, Zhao Yi, rushed to the courtyard where the head of the house, Zhao Ansheng, was located.

Zhao Ansheng had just finished handling the things in his hands, and asked casually after hearing the words: "How?"

Zhao Yi replied with a smile:

"The effect is very good. These days, Zhou Lin ran all over the villages and counties in Huangshan Prefecture, but no one is willing to repair the embankment even if he talks all the way, the left servant of the dignified Ministry of Industry, it is really embarrassing to be in this state!"

After Zhao Ansheng finished listening, a smile finally appeared on his calm face, and he said slowly:

"So what if he is the left servant of the Ministry of Industry? On the territory of my Zhao family, even if he is a dragon, he will coil up, and if he is a tiger, he will lie down. If he dares not to follow the rules of my Zhao family, then we will make it difficult for him to move!"

Zhao Yi immediately echoed: "What the Patriarch said is that no matter who he is, since he is here, he must obey the rules of our Zhao family!"

Speaking of this, he seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly changed the subject: "Patriarch, Zhou Lin is just like this this week, but what really worries me is King Yun's army to suppress the Japanese.

The villain is worried that if he delays, these killers who kill people in Gaodong will have any crooked thoughts! "

Speaking of this, Zhao Ansheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
