Zhao Hanzhang stepped on the snow, and her breath was steaming with white smoke, which blurred her vision. She looked into the distance, and her eyes were filled with white. At this time, only a poem from the past was left in her mind, the scenery of the North, thousands of miles of ice.
It's closed, thousands of miles of snow is falling.
She turned to Yin Sheng and asked, "Are these lands lost?"
Yin Sheng gritted his teeth and said, "Yes."
This vast field is on the eastern outskirts of the city, not far from the city gate.
The terrain of Nanyang country is flat, and the area of Luyang is also mostly plains with few hills. Besides woods, most of the roads here are cultivated fields.
Zhao Hanzhang walked to a field and raised his foot to scratch away the snow on it. Below was wheat that had grown as long as a finger.
Seeing the wheat, she couldn't help but smile on her face, "With two snows in a row, next year should be a good harvest year, right?"
"Yes," Yin Sheng couldn't help but smile on his face, "Many people said that the situation next year should be good."
Zhao Hanzhang went to other fields to look. No matter how flowers bloomed or snowed, there were only weeds underneath.
And according to Yin Sheng, from here onwards, it is basically all abandoned land. The people have fled and left, and it has been abandoned for two or three years.
There is so much lost land in the suburbs, not to mention other places.
Zhao Hanzhang thought of the population estimate made by Fu Tinghan this morning and couldn't help but sigh deeply, "Let's choose this area and let people build the Yushan Hall here. This lost land will be attributed to the name of the Yushan Hall."
Next, the land output will be used for Yushantang’s expenses.”
"Yes." Yin Sheng also breathed a sigh of relief. He had been in charge of the refugees for the past two days. To be honest, he was under a lot of pressure.
Bearing the food and drink of so many people was not a big deal for a day or two, and he could bear it for three or four days, but as time went on, he would be strained. Therefore, when Zhao Hanzhang first revealed that he wanted to resettle the refugees, he immediately agreed.
Even though the land she chose had been spotted by several people before and was about to be traded away.
But...compared with Qian and Zhao Hanzhang, even a fool knows what to choose.
Zhao Hanzhang chose a place, and the county magistrate was about to send out labor, but Zhao Hanzhang stopped him, "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and everyone's life will be very difficult this year. It's better not to send out labor, and just hire people."
The county magistrate felt a pain in his heart, "Please, please?"
Zhao Hanzhang glanced at him with a half-smile and said, "It's just a work-for-relief project. Nanyang Kingdom can still get this little money, right?"
It is possible, but it is impossible for a county to put all its finances here, especially as spring is about to begin and there are many places to spend money.
But the county magistrate would not refute Zhao Hanzhang's respect for such a trivial matter, so he agreed.
As long as he doesn't pay for it.
As soon as he returned to the county governor's house, Zhao Hanzhang issued a work-for-relief order and began to recruit workers to build houses.
In fact, winter is not suitable for building houses because the ground is frozen and the foundation is difficult to dig.
Being unsuitable just makes it more difficult, not impossible. They have to settle all the refugees before spring, and then they can start their normal lives.
"Children and women will make up the majority of the people in the Yushan Hall, and there will also be some elderly people and people with disabilities. It is best to manage them separately, so I decided to demarcate the area from the beginning," Zhao Hanzhang said, opening the drawing.
He said to everyone: "This is the sketch drawn by Mr. Fu. Do you think there is anything else that needs to be added or modified?"
Everyone said that the planning was very good and there was nothing they could add or modify.
Zhao Hanzhang glanced at them, clicked on the sketch and said, "Then let's build it according to this."
She was also asked to take a look at the capabilities of the officials in the Nanyang County Governor's Office. Zhao Hanzhang directly handed over this task to Yin Sheng and others, while she and Fan Ying stood aside and occasionally came up with ideas.
Naturally, things like recruiting workers cannot be done by an official like a county magistrate. All orders are handed down to the officials layer by layer.
Despite their low status, they also knew Zhao Hanzhang. She attracted so much attention when she entered the city. In the past two days, whenever she went out, the county magistrate and the others would follow her. As long as the government officials wanted to know, they would stand on the street for a while.
Can see people.
Zhao Hanzhang is so conspicuous that once you take a look at it, you will never forget it.
So Zhao Hanzhang, whose eyes ached from approving official documents, wanted to visit incognito to see how to recruit workers, but he was discovered as soon as he got close. The officials who were sitting recruiting workers immediately knelt on the ground.
Zhao Hanzhang could only wave her hand to let them get up, and then left after briefly understanding the recruitment process. There was no way, they were all stumbling when talking. If she stayed, there would be no work at the recruitment site today.
The incognito private visit failed, which made Zhao Hanzhang a little depressed.
Tinghe came out from nowhere and said to Zhao Hanzhang: "Girl, they have spread it privately. Some time ago, girl paid a private visit incognito, and the soldiers guarding the city gate saw you."
It's about her pretending to be a girl from the fifth house.
Zhao Hanzhang was speechless: "I have a good memory."
She sighed, "I wanted to observe their ability to organize things up close, but I didn't expect that they failed because they were too famous."
Fu Tinghan passed by her, stopped when he heard this, tilted his head and said: "If you really want to go, just dress up."
Zhao Hanzhang was disgusted, "I just want to use the fragmented time to observe, not only to relax my eyes and brain, but also to collect some information. Do I need to put on special makeup?"
Half an hour of observation and one hour of makeup?
This is too much to put the cart before the horse.
Fu Tinghan said: "You have overestimated the facial recognition capabilities of ordinary police officers in this era."
"Um?"
Fu Tinghan took her to change clothes, and the two of them changed into a set of patched linen clothes. The cold wind blew through her, and even a healthy person like Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help but shrink his neck.
Not to mention Fu Tinghan, who grabbed the clothes on his body, shrank his neck and whispered in a low voice: "Let's go."
Zhao Hanzhang followed him blankly. When they both stood in line with their necks hunched, she still couldn't understand. She poked Fu Tinghan's lower back and said, "It's okay if I come. What are you doing here?"
She is the governor, and she can understand the public sentiment and official sentiment through private visits incognito. Why is he following her to join in the fun?
Fu Tinghan was trying to beat the cold with sleep. He opened his misty eyes and said, "Didn't you get my budget back? Some people ridiculed me for being unrealistic, so I'm going to make it practical."
Zhao Hanzhang asked: "Who is so hateful that he dares to ridicule you?"
Fu Tinghan glanced at her and did not say who it was, but said: "Since we want to use Nanyang Country as a model, we must do our best to solve as many problems as possible, so that other counties can have reference value."
Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "Okay, then we will visit privately incognito for a few days."
Just go back and deal with government affairs in the evening.
The two of them waited in the queue with their necks hunched, but Fu Tinghan waited in line honestly, but Zhao Hanzhang refused to be honest and kept turning his head and looking around.
While she was spinning around, she noticed someone approaching. When she turned around, there was a young man standing next to her and Fu Tinghan. She was wondering, and the team moved forward. Fu Tinghan slowly raised his foot to keep up with the person in front, and then stood where Fu Tinghan raised his foot.
In an instant, the young man next to her also raised his foot. She was slow for a moment, and in just that moment, he raised his foot and inserted himself between her and Fu Tinghan. There was no sense of disobedience, as if he had always been lined up in the middle.
What a master!
Zhao Hanzhang was amazed when he saw it, but he was not annoyed. He raised his foot and followed him, then stretched out his finger to poke the other person's shoulder, "Hey, brother, you jumped in line."
