He turned and looked at the Great Elder in the image of the communication talisman: "Great Elder! The new version of the migration order is directly confiscated, and not a single one is allowed to be left outside!"
The Great Elder was horrified: "This is openly going against the royal family!"
Han Zhe smiled and shook his head: "No! Now Han is threatened by Chu day and night. Facing a strong enemy, we naturally cannot be careless. The army needs people, the city defense needs people, and the logistics need people. Is it too much to issue the order to relocate people without manpower?
What’s more, the New Year is coming soon, and local officials are also human beings. They also want to go home and reunite with their families!
Every Korean is loyal to the imperial court, but even the best cook cannot cook without rice. Without enough manpower, no matter how loyal they are, it will be of no avail!
Just follow my instructions and deal with it with confidence!
Until the war in the north is over, no matter how much the court urges me, I will remain unmoved.
Even if you finish the fight early, don't do anything before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month!"
The elder hesitated for a moment and nodded heavily: "Yes!"
No matter how inciting the order to relocate people is.
What’s the point if you can’t send out any?
Although this move is somewhat risky, extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures.
Before the Zhao family gathered all their strength, they would never show any disrespect to the Han family.
This decision was the right one!
Han Zhe continued, "Starting today, we will open the seed warehouse and sell high-quality seeds at low prices. Don't keep any seeds. At the same time, we will issue a decree that half of the harvest from the public fields next year will go to the farmers."
Hearing these words, everyone's heart ached.
Today, well-fields are still the mainstream in Han land. Taking away half of the public land is equivalent to cutting nearly half of the Han family's income.
But if it's only this year, it's still acceptable.
These people were reluctant to give up the high-quality grains or the harvest from the public fields.
It would delay them for a year at least.
Although the Han family will also suffer a lot of losses, it is far from being a serious loss.
On the contrary, the Zhao family can't afford to delay.
They had no objection to Han Zhe's request.
Han Zhe took a deep breath and continued, "Also, allocate funds to scholars from all over the country to spread the word that the new land is the former land of the Di Kingdom, that the water and soil are full of barbaric spirits, that evil spirits are rampant, and that crops cannot grow.
If they migrated there, the fetuses born would easily be possessed by evil spirits and full of barbaric habits, and killing their father and mother would be common.
The reason why the royal family issued the order to relocate the people was to use this group of people to absorb the evil spirits of the barbarians, so that they could be completely incorporated into the territory of the Central Plains after several decades.
The crime is committed in this present age, but the merit will last for generations to come!
Our King Li is a great ruler!"
"yes!"
The great elder nodded as he listened.
Those common people cannot read a single word and they love to believe in these rumors they hear from others.
After these measures, even if the people are greedy for cultivation resources and want to forcibly turn things around, they have to think carefully, right?
I have to say.
Han Zhe, the head of the family, is really cruel.
Everyone in the hall also praised: "The head of the family is wise!"
Han Zhe's expression was stern: "Thank you all for your hard work! The real test will not begin until after the New Year. Let's take a break before the New Year. After Zhao Ning returns to the court, it will be a tough battle that will last for at least a year!"
"yes!"
Everyone present responded in unison.
indeed!
The real test will come after the new year.
Everyone in the Han family has been on high alert during this period. Now that they have figured out Zhao Ji's background, they should indeed take a few days off.
After all, the current situation in Hantu is very ideal. Ever since the first wave of refugees was suppressed, the people of Hantu have become more obedient than others and have basically no intention of migrating.
This behavior even made them nervous for a while, and they wondered if some organization was deliberately instigating them to stay on the sidelines.
If they had not found any trace of the mysterious organization after a thorough investigation, they would not have dared to let go of their worries.
It seems that these are all the results of the Han family’s previous actions.
Han Zhe's move this time can be regarded as a continuation of a series of previous moves and should be very effective.
This wave is still stable!
At least we can relax a little before the new version of the immigration order is announced.
Have a good new year!
Han Zhe cancelled the communication talisman and breathed a sigh of relief, but his attention soon shifted to an old man.
He was looking at the old man, and the old man was also looking at him.
His eyes were somewhat confused.
The old man's eyes were slightly evasive.
finally.
He took a deep breath and said, "Father-in-law, His Majesty seems to be summoning you more and more frequently recently!"
The old man is none other than himself.
It was his father-in-law, Zheng Yuan's father, and also the eldest elder of the Zheng family - Zheng Lian.
Zheng Lian had known that Han Zhe was going to ask this question, but when he heard him ask it in person, he still looked a little unnatural.
Especially now, all the eyes of the Han family in the meeting hall are on him.
He felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, like a thorn in his back, and like there was something stuck in his throat.
How is this different from a public trial?
He sighed softly and said something ambiguous: "Your Majesty may be too nostalgic!"
He and Zhao Ji were indeed old acquaintances.
At that time, the Zheng family was still the Zheng State.
He was still a hostage of Zheng State in Li State, and had met Zhao Ji, who was still a little boy, several times.
This is the only way to fool people.
But the Han family obviously didn't buy it.
This time, the Han family specially pulled Zheng Lian over for the meeting because Zheng Lian and Zhao Ji had been in contact too frequently in recent times.
How could one be so easily fooled by such a sentence?
"oh?"
Han Zhe raised his eyebrows slightly: "May I ask, my father-in-law and His Majesty met twice in three days. What did they talk about during that time?"
