Damn it, I'm in the garbage book I wrote

Chapter 447 starts!

Zhuo Heng's abilities were actually quite good. He moved among local tyrants and officials, looking for people. The people he wanted were simple, just some refugees without any land.

Henan Province was originally a densely populated area, and the war against Wang Shichong never really broke out. Although places like Xialin were almost completely empty, didn't most people still flock to places like Luoyang and Xudu?

So Zhuo Heng went around lobbying people in these places to release some of the population pressure, asking what they wanted to do. He said that Xia Lin should develop the abandoned land over there, otherwise it would just remain abandoned. Many people said that Xia Lin and Zhuo Heng were naive, but they didn't really want to make things difficult for him. After all, they had also inquired and found that many businessmen wanted to go there to lease land, and some were even bigwigs in the court.

Besides, Zhuo Heng is the son of Wang Shichong, and most of the people present here are Wang Shichong's old subordinates. Besides, Wang Shichong has been cleared of all charges, so everyone will give this young master some face.

Another point is that Zhuo Heng is the son of Wang Shichong. Everyone knows what kind of person Wang Shichong is. He would not betray his father and the aristocratic class, right?
So his lobbying went quite smoothly, and he was basically given some face wherever he went.

So after just one round, he easily exceeded the target set by Xia Lin. He increased the minimum of 30,000 people to more than 80,000, and more people joined along the way.

Some of these refugees are local people. They turned back when they heard that their families were going to redistribute the land. Some of them were displaced people from other places, so they followed here to try their luck. After all, if they stayed there, they would only be doing things worse than pigs and dogs.

Of course, another point is Xia Lin's fame. Although they don't know who Xia Lin is, with the flow of businessmen, some of his deeds have spread here. These people can ask each other and still know what this great man has done.

Now that the buff is in place, all that's left is to start pouring in this direction. In nine days, the number of people increased from 40,000 to 50,000 at the beginning of the journey, to 70,000 to 80,000 on the way, and then to 110,000 or 120,000 when almost arriving. This journey can be said to be vast and boundless.

Fortunately, Xia Lin is bedridden now, otherwise he would shudder when he saw this scene.

After all, a number sounds monotonous and boring, but if you make this number concrete, it will be shocking.

Simply put, if there are tens of thousands of people, there will be no end in sight. If a hundred thousand people were spread out on the ground, there would be billowing smoke and dust, and all you could see were heads. The appearance would be very terrifying.

"Marshal, the refugees have arrived! They are still ten miles away from here!"

Xia Lin, who was lying in the yard basking in the sun, suddenly received this news. He raised his head with great effort: "Go, start preparing for the shelter. My wife will go and coordinate."

The little princess said "oh" and went out with her people.

Luo Shixin, who was standing next to him, asked curiously, "Sir, let the princess go. Does she understand?"

"Don't underestimate this crybaby of mine. The dispatch of 100,000 people is like child's play to her."

"so smart……"

Don't say that the little princess is a vase. She has been seriously trained in Fuliang these days. She is not very familiar with the resettlement of cities with a population of millions, but she is knowledgeable. Now that the scale has been reduced to 100,000 people, it can really be said that she is in her comfort zone.

After the little princess arrived outside the county, the first thing she did was to arrange for people to prepare medicine and food. This large-scale migration was essentially the same as fleeing famine. The first thing was to ensure the stability of the lives of critically ill patients, and then to ensure that they had enough to eat. The third thing was inspection and quarantine to prevent the spread of a large-scale plague.

If this matter happened a few years ago, the little princess would be completely in the dark, but now she was standing there giving orders, and the whole process was well organized, without any panic at all.

"Men and women are separated. Men pass from the left and women pass from the right. Children under ten years old can follow their mothers."

"Tents are now being set up in the resettlement area, and patrols are being carried out to ensure public security."

"Cooks, stand by, logistics department, run forward, come to me!"

The little princess's orders one by one stunned Master Shan Wu who was standing beside him. He had originally planned to use the military camp method to control these refugees, but who knew that while he was still thinking about how to deal with them, all the orders had been issued.

"Your Highness...how come you are so amazing?"

"Is it really that great?" The little princess blushed at his praise and felt quite embarrassed: "I just learned from my husband... He arranged it like this in the beginning, and it worked."

"Then I should learn. Apart from marching and fighting, I don't know much about these things."

Soon, the refugees arrived, but the scene was not chaotic at all. The whole diversion process was well organized. Although they were tired along the way, they were not considered disaster victims after all. Food and other things on the road were still available, so there was no looting or other violence. Everything was very peaceful. Everyone came here with hope. People with hope are naturally peaceful. They came here with the vision of having a better life, right? So they cooperated quite well during the resettlement.

Of course, there were also doubts about why a family of three should be separated. The people around them also patiently explained that it was unsafe to live together. After all, there were a hundred or eighty guys in a circle, and if your wife suddenly got in among them, it would be difficult to deal with, and she would have to give her a bath afterwards.

When it comes to this, everyone has a tacit understanding. After all, no one wants their wife to be watched by a hundred or eighty guys while taking a bath.

Temporary tents have also begun to be built, but this time the construction is very interesting. The materials brought from Fuliang have actually begun to be modularized.

When Xia Lin saw it for the first time, he couldn't help but sigh, the ancients really had poor basics and it's not that they had low IQ, their creative ideas were really awesome.

The tent is made of steel bars and steel pipes of different thicknesses as its frame. One end of the steel bar is inserted into the bottom, and then the other end is passed through sections of steel pipes. A piece of wood is screwed on as a limiter, and the other end is also inserted into the ground and fixed.

This will form an arch shape, but isn't it unstable? So we need to use hemp ropes to pass through steel pipes to connect dozens of similar things in series, and prop up a bamboo at each end for support. After a configuration is formed, the hemp ropes at both ends can be knotted and tied to tree stumps or iron wedges to form a relatively stable structure.

Then a layer of lime is laid inside, and then straw is laid on top, and then a thick layer of straw is tied on top to cover it. This is not only windproof, moisture-proof and warm, but also extremely cheap. The key is that the construction speed is extremely fast. Hundreds of people can build all temporary residences in one day.

During the day, you can also lift up the straw on top to allow for ventilation and sunlight to ensure cleanliness and dryness.

Overall, this plan is efficient, convenient and full of wisdom. It can be seen that those guys really racked their brains for the county's annual invention award and progress award.

By almost evening, the huge crowd of more than 100,000 people had actually settled down.

Then there was the issue of cooking. The cooks played a big role at this time. The mode of distributing meals in batches and at fixed locations was also very scientific. Moreover, supplies were sufficient at the moment, so the entire temporary residential area was even filled with joy.

Xia Lin was finally carried here. Lying on a stretcher, he saw the atmosphere in each small settlement. The feeling was indeed different. He still remembered the lifeless and hopeless walking corpses of the disaster victims back then. Now, looking at these people today, although their identities may not be much different, they are full of joy and hope, and have visions and yearnings for the future.

The children were chasing and playing in their small area, while the adults were leaning back and drinking soup, eating dry food, and relaxing after walking hundreds of miles. Some people went to bed early, but there were still many people sitting there chatting.

"Fifth brother, I'll leave the rest to you." Xia Lin lay there and took a deep breath: "The weather is getting colder and colder. We need to start organizing them to produce to save themselves."

"I know. I asked His Highness this afternoon and he said the same thing. I will start working on it tomorrow."

"I believe you on this, but I still say that we need to make sure these people are relaxed and not let them run wild."

"Understood. Marshal, go and have a rest soon. Your waist must not catch a cold. I will give you a massage later."

"No, no, no... Don't take it. If you take it again, I'll really die." Xia Lin smiled bitterly and waved his hands, "I'll just rest for a few days and I'll be fine."

Xia Lin was carried away. Shan Xiongxin looked at the tents below and saw some traces of a military camp. He was not without some doubts in his heart. Xia Lin was much better and more powerful than himself, but he still entrusted such an important task to him. So, he was probably being trained as a member of his team.

Thinking of this, Shan Xiongxin couldn't help but become ambitious. A real man is born between heaven and earth, and he should accomplish a great cause, whether it is competing for the Central Plains or saving the world and the people, it is ultimately a heroic path.

If that's the case, then let's do it! Even if I die on this road in the future, it won't be in vain. When I see the King of Hell, I can drink and chat with him.

The next day, Shan Xiongxin brought a group of people and began to organize and recruit these refugees. Although he was a military officer, he was also good at winning people's hearts. And because he was motivated, he really enjoyed his work.

Xia Lin had nowhere to go at the moment, so he just lay on the recliner basking in the sun, and kept talking: "Your fifth brother is really a natural political commissar."

"Sir, what is a political commissar?" Luo Shixin was puzzled.

"You'll know then."
