That was their hometown, and how could they not work even harder when farming there?
However, the origins of some of them are unknown. Wouldn't it be wonderful to send them to Kuaiji Commandery to help General Sun build city walls, cultivate fields, and resist those unruly mountain tribes?
Yang Hong raised an eyebrow and saw Yuan Shu winking at him, so he quickly echoed.
“What Hui said makes sense, but we also need to talk to the four major families of Wuzhong, Gu, Lu, Zhu and Zhang, and ask them to provide some food and equipment so that these refugees can work normally.”
This would greatly increase the chances of success!
Yuan Yin frowned, but he couldn't very well contradict his cousin in court.
The military officers were all speechless with astonishment upon hearing this.
Isn't this just sending resources to Sun Jian and servants to the powerful clans?
But they couldn't refute it; they were just military officers, not strategists or civil officials.
A rough plan for land reclamation was the best solution they could come up with.

Ji Ling grabbed Zhang Xun, who was still struggling, making Zhang Xun realize his current situation and that he could only go along with Yuan Shu.
"Yes, Your humble servant obeys!"
Before Yuan Shu could even say he was leaving the court, Zhang Xun turned and left, much to Yuan Shu's displeasure.
However, he made up his own mind that Zhang Xun had been with him for so many years, and these matters should be handled sooner rather than later. He had just personally ordered Zhang Xun to do the work, so it didn't seem like there was any problem with him leaving.
Yuan Shu, who was completely oblivious to the change in Zhang Xun's expression, immediately felt refreshed and waved his hand.
"That's all for today. By the way, cousin, please keep a close eye on the construction of that palace and make sure it's finished as soon as possible."
"...Yes, ma'am."
"Hmm... This is Mrs. Feng's place!"
