At the end of the summer harvest, labor force recruitment began in Luoyang and Yuzhou, and each household was required to send a strong man to serve for one month.
However, both Yuzhou and Luoyang had experienced war not long ago, especially in Luoyang, there were not many families with strong men at all, and most of them were old, young and women.
Zhao Hanzhang could only issue another announcement to recruit paid day laborers, and encouraged counties to recruit refugees to build water conservancy projects. In addition, in addition to elite soldiers, the rest of the garrison troops in various places were required to help local areas build dams, ponds, ditches and other water conservancy facilities.
In order to prevent the local government from doing useless work and wasting manpower and material resources, Zhao Hanzhang also decided to go back to Chen County to meet Zhao Ming in person and hold a meeting to finalize the regulations.
She discussed with Fu Tinghan, Ji Yuan and others that it would be better to have a deep well, a dam or a large pond that can be irrigated every mile. The most important thing is to be deep, so that water can be better stored.
The location chosen is particularly important. Deep wells must be easy to discharge water, so the location must be found correctly. The dam or pond used for irrigation must not only consider the irrigation coverage area, but also integrate existing ditches and try to connect and utilize them all.
In this way, they need a large number of people who are good at arithmetic to work at the grassroots level.
Students from various county schools in Yuzhou, especially Xiping Academy, were directly recruited, and all students who passed the third-level arithmetic examination were required to report to each county government office.
Of course, it is just an order at the moment. Each school has received the order and is preparing for the exam. The first person who can follow the teacher will go to Chen County to meet the envoy.
So orders were sent to all schools, and the students studied arithmetic like crazy and put aside other subjects for the time being.
In order to better discuss the student management regulations, Zhao Hanzhang called Zhao Cheng and wanted to take them back to Chen County for a meeting to meet the student representatives.
When Zhao Hu found out, he was still wandering around Luoyang City. When his servants reported that Zhao Cheng had packed his things and was going back to Chen County, he immediately left Yaren who wanted to take him to see the shops and ran directly back to Zhao's house.
"Zhao Hanzhang, Zhao Hanzhang——" Zhao Hu rushed into the courtyard aggressively, but was stopped in front of the study door. No matter how he approached the guards, they refused to give in. When he came closer, the guards held the hilts of their knives with cold eyes.
, has the momentum to kill people with its sheath.
For some reason, Zhao Hu felt that they dared to chop him, so he did not go any further and just yelled angrily in front of his guards, "Zhao Hanzhang, I know you are in there, come out!"
In the study, Zhao Hanzhang smiled apologetically at everyone, asked them to sit down, and then stood up and walked out. Zhao Cheng, whose face was not very good, followed him out.
The others just bowed slightly and sat still, waiting for her to come back and continue after processing.
Ming Yu frowned and was very displeased. After Zhao Hanzhang went out, he turned to Ji Yuan and asked, "Does your Majesty indulge your clansmen in this way?"
He was very afraid that Zhao Hanzhang would be the next Gou Xi.
Ji Yuan smiled at him and said, "Mr. Ming, don't worry. Shijun is a very principled person. In the future, I ask you to remind Shijun to be more kind to his people."
Mr. Ming was slightly surprised that it was even more generous?
Ji Yuan glanced at Bei Gongchun and others who were motionless, and said to Mr. Ming: "Seventh Master is an elder. Even though he is loud now, isn't it possible for him to break into the study?"
When Ming Yu thought about it, it was true that if it was Gou Xi, his personal guards would really not be able to stop Gou Chun.
But maybe it’s because Gou Chun is young and Zhao Hu is older?
No, no, Zhao Hu is still an elder.
Ming Yu couldn't help but prick up his ears to listen to what was going on outside.
As soon as Zhao Hanzhang went out, he quickened his pace and almost jogged down. He nodded approvingly to his guards, and then faced Zhao Hu with a tolerant smile, "Why is the seventh uncle here?"
Zhao Hu was very angry, "You tricked me from Xiping to Chen County, and then from Chen County to Luoyang. It turned out that I was in Luoyang, and you asked Zhao Cheng to return to Chen County. What are your intentions?"
Zhao Hanzhang looked confused. She didn't expect that he was angry about this. She was also worried that something as big as exchanging old money for new money would go wrong.
"Seventh uncle, Uncle Cheng is only temporarily returning to Chen County for work. It's not like he won't come to Luoyang. You just need to live peacefully in Luoyang. Don't worry, he can't run away."
Zhao Cheng:......
Zhao Hu looked at her with disbelief, and
He glanced at Zhao Cheng and said, "You said he wouldn't run away, so he wouldn't run away? Who knows if he will go to other places after returning to Chen County?"
Zhao Hanzhang was a little confused, "Seventh Uncle, Uncle Cheng traveled everywhere in the past, and he has never seen you so angry." Chinese website
Zhao Hu looked at her with a look of resentment and said: "In the past, I was in Xiping, and he ran away. No matter how angry I was, there was nothing I could do. But now I have chased him to Luoyang, and if he runs away again, I will
Wouldn’t the trip be in vain?”
He said: "When the mountain didn't come to me, I went to the mountain, but when I got to the foot of the mountain, the mountain ran away again. Do you think I'm angry?"
What he said was so reasonable that Zhao Hanzhang was speechless, so he turned back to see Zhao Cheng.
Zhao Cheng looked at her silently, trying not to move, but Zhao Hanzhang kept winking. Zhao Cheng had no choice but to say to Zhao Hu: "Father, don't worry, I will come back to Luoyang."
Zhao Hu was worried, "I heard that you will take Zheng'er with you this time."
Zhao Cheng nodded and said: "Although Zheng'er is young, he has some talent in arithmetic, so I plan to take him back to practice."
"Don't we also need to build water conservancy projects in Luoyang? Zheng'er can also practice here, why do we have to take him back to Chen County?"
Zhao Hanzhang on the side nodded slightly, thinking that Zhao Hu was right.
Zhao Chengdao: "There are Cao Yushi and others here in Luoyang. There is no shortage of people to calculate. However, the counties under the jurisdiction of Yuzhou are very short of people. Zheng'er can do more by following me."
This is indeed true. Zhao Hanzhang also nodded, feeling that Zhao Cheng's plan was right.
"Bah, you just don't want Zheng'er to follow me. Luoyang is so big and takes in so many people every day. Zhao Hanzhang shouts that there is a shortage of people every day. I don't believe that the huge Luoyang city can't arrange for a Zhao Zheng," Zhao
Hu was so angry that her face turned red, "Yuzhou has recruited talents three times, and with the schools opened by counties and counties, there are only a lot of people who can do arithmetic. Is there still a shortage of Zhao Zheng?"
Zhao Hu was so angry that his eyes were red, "You just don't want Zheng'er to follow me, and you won't allow us to be happy."
Zhao Cheng's face was solemn and he remained silent without speaking.
Zhao Hanzhang quickly tried to smooth things over, "Seventh uncle misunderstood Uncle Cheng. Luoyang is big, but isn't Yuzhou bigger? There are so many counties in the country, and even though they have held three talent recruitment exams, they are still very short of manpower. Is it true that the younger brother is studying
Okay, Ting Han has already praised me, I can count as ten."
Zhao Hu sneered at her and said to her: "Anyway, you lied to me. In this case, I won't exchange the remaining money."
Zhao Hanzhang:......
After saying that, he gave Zhao Cheng a cold look, rolled up his sleeves and left.
Zhao Cheng frowned and turned to ask Zhao Hanzhang, "The money exchange is very important. Do you want me to..."
"No need," Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile, "Seventh Uncle is speaking out of anger. I have already signed a contract with him."
