I dare not let Bo Hao know about this situation, so as not to kill him with his sword.

At that time, maybe we will really achieve the achievement of "killing Cao Cao at the beginning".

But this is not beneficial to Zhang Yu.

In this chaotic era, there was no Cao Cao and Zhang Cao and Wang Cao.

If the matter is exposed, I will offend the Cao and Xiahou children for nothing, and I will never stop.

"To be honest, Cao is very curious about this place..." Cao Cao looked around and there was a vague prototype of a city that began to appear. "Cao asked the King of Jinan that this place was not a pavilion, but a place for the Taoist priest."

He paused and asked formally: "So, in the opinion of Taoist priest, what is this place?"

"Daoyuan!" Zhang Yu replied, "On the hills, Taoist temples will be established as a place for preaching and practicing. This valley under the hills is mainly a place for ordinary Taoists to live and practice."

"A temple of tens of thousands of people?" Cao Cao still heard this statement.

"There is so popular, there is no way." Zhang Yu shook his head, "The fellow Taoists who had come with me were less than 300. I settled here, and soon these more than 8,000 refugees came to join me one after another.

Most of them are not in good condition. As long as they don’t care, they will die, otherwise they will go on the risk. Prime Minister, do you think I can accept these thousands of religious people, or let them corpse in the wilderness, or become mobs, cholera places?"

Cao Cao was silent. In fact, since the first year of Guanghe (178 AD), there were turmoil and rebellion all over the country.

The weather is not normal, either a drought or a flood. Sometimes a sudden frost occurs in the beginning of spring, and the newly sprouted grains are frozen to death...

Just five years later, in 182, the epidemic worsened the drought.

In the sixth year of Guanghe, a large number of people came to Luoyang to beg for life. Refugees who left their hometowns to beg for life were everywhere.

It was the refugees all over the mountains who finally joined the Yellow Turban thieves.

There is no need to incite and join spontaneously.

The Yellow Turban Thief, whose total number was only 40,000 to 50,000, soared by millions after these refugees joined!

In a sense, this is also the main reason why Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song wanted to kill hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban thieves after the Battle of Changshe.

In the court, there was really no extra food and grass to help these "former refugees".

During the pre-Han period, excessive liquidation of positions was set up.

But it was abolished during the reign of Emperor Yuan of Han.

During the reign of Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he planned to reset it, but finally gave up.

In other words, the imperial court not only could not stabilize the price of grain, but also had no food to use for disaster relief.

Another reason is that the fire burns Changshe for a while, and everything is finished after burning supplies and supplies.

After a war, I found that it was not seized, and hundreds of thousands of people could not provide food!

If you want to leave it alone and don’t rebel, you will no longer want to live!

That day, Cao Cao began to understand why the Qin army wanted to kill hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops in the Battle of Changping.

Then I felt a sense of powerlessness, and I could only watch everything happen...

"The leader is benevolent and righteous, Cao doesn't have any trouble saying anything." Cao Cao shook his head, "Can you take Cao to visit here?"

"There is nothing shameful... There are exceptions, such as the place where I can make medicine and refine medicine." Zhang Yu looked at Cao Cao.

"I can't tell anything after Cao went there, so I'd better forget it." Cao Cao expressed his understanding.

Before coming, he investigated that this temple is largely based on finished elixirs and talismans to make profits.

Along the way, several hills were transformed into medicinal fields, mainly to reduce the cost of raw materials.

The lush trees on it were originally there, but now they are all cut and bald.

The terrain is not suitable for farmland, so it is simply changed to a medicinal field.

I had to take Cao Cao around the town, and the latter liked it the more I looked at it.

First of all, the plan is very reasonable, you can tell at a glance that it is the hand of a talented person.

Secondly, the people's faces are full of hope and are not as numb as other places.

"Cao doesn't understand..." When he arrived at Zhang Yu's mansion, Cao Cao sat down and asked, "Since they were still on the verge of survival two or three months ago, why do they have such a face now?"

"Nothing is strange." Zhang Yu knew that Cao Cao was suspicious of him. This guy was very suspicious. "The people themselves have low requirements. They have no worries about food and clothing, and they are almost satisfied. If you can find a woman with three or five children, even if you are at the peak of your life..."

He paused, looked at Cao Cao and asked, "Everyone knows that when it grows up, can't work, can't give birth, and can't produce milk, they will only kill them. Officials from all over the country claim to be His Majesty's Majesty, why don't they even understand this basic principle?"

"Probably..." Cao Cao thought for a while, "When he became really fat, it might not be their turn to kill him."

Not to mention the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were this problem in all dynasties and dynasties.

Officials from all over the country will basically not implement long-term policies.

That kind of policy that takes more than three to five years to achieve results.

I only have to invest in my job and can’t see much benefit.

As a result, the next term came up and the policy was effective. The officials of this term made great achievements. Who would remember the investment of the previous term?

Unless there is no way, you have to do that, and all the funds are not in place, and even they are unfinished and tofu projects.

In ancient times, it was even worse. It was just getting better and there were people who had the background to come and pick peaches.

Over time, some "fools" will be deducted, otherwise everyone will just want to have no mistakes.

Anyway, as long as the local area is stable and there is no chaos, your political achievements will not be bad.

"In other words, if you see a big fat pig here..." Zhang Yu said with great interest.

"……………” Cao Cao was silent. When this place develops, there would probably be a large number of officials who would look at it.

It's a bit ironic. It's clear that when it's the most dangerous time here, the government has never cared about the lives of these tens of thousands of people.

As a powerful man, Cao Cao was somewhat confused.

The scholars attributed this situation to the result of the eunuchs' chaos in politics.

But the question is that his grandfather was a eunuch. Can he know that the eunuchs began to be in power for only three years.

The chaos in various parts of the Han Dynasty had already occurred seven or eight years ago, and even earlier, so it doesn't make sense!

But is it said that scholars are the culprits that cause all this?

He didn't dare to think about this idea, let alone what he said publicly.

I dare to say that my father and he have been in vain for the efforts he has made to rely on the scholars over the years!

"If that day really comes, what are the leader's plans?" Cao Cao looked at Zhang Yu.

"This is already the Taishan Mountains, and it does not belong to the jurisdiction of Tugu County!" Zhang Yu reminded, "Not to mention the Taihang Mountains, there are millions of hidden people. In the Taishan Mountains, there are no less than 200,000 to 300,000, and there is no shortage of tens of thousands of hidden people like us."

It's nothing more than a closed entrance and exit, just like a paradise, just be self-sufficient, if he wants to do so.

Speaking of this, he smiled and looked at Cao Cao: "Cao Guoxiang probably forgot that everyone here is outsiders. He actually doesn't care about secular power and status."

"The leader is free and easy!" Cao Cao sighed. If Zhang Yu really brought these people to be secret people, it would be difficult for the court to deal with it.

Most of them sent officials to subdue them to the mountain to serve the people.

If you don’t have the opportunity to send troops to fight, if you don’t have the opportunity, you can only block the entrances and exits, and not let hidden people go down the mountain, nor let materials enter the mountain.

It's just useless. There are many people who are willing to do business with hidden people secretly.

Otherwise, how did the Montenegro army's supplies, weapons, horses, salt and oil come from?

How can the materials obtained from robbery be sold out?

This kind of thing is almost an open secret!

"Free and easy, ha..." Zhang Yu smiled when he heard this, "It is already the best result to be a hidden man. God knows when we will become 'rebels'. Free and easy, no one in this world can truly be free and easy."

He paused and continued, "It's still late, so why not stay for a meal?"
