Luoyang City woke up with the echoing bells.

Because the weather was getting colder, Luoyang City was shrouded in a faint mist in the early morning. In this mist, Ye Chang and his party walked through the neighborhoods of Luoyang City and headed towards the government office.

The roosters crowed and dogs barked in the city. People who woke up early came out one after another, gathered with scholars and women, and were crowded with business travelers.

If history does not change such a prosperous city, it will face a catastrophe in more than ten years. It was first occupied by the rebels, and then sent to alien mercenaries by Li Tang. Countless scholars and women, like peonies in the city, fell to the ground and crushed into mud.

Barbarism always has its own advantages over civilization. If civilization falls into internal strife again, then the overturn will not be long.

With such emotion, Ye Chang came to Yang Shenming.

"I handed over the name of the sage the day before yesterday, why did I just arrive today?"

Yang Shenming was very unhappy. He sent someone to invite Ye Chang to help him, hoping that Ye Chang would come and help him. However, Ye Chang had arrived early, but it took two days to see him.

Two days, this is precious time

This morning the frost was heavy, and it was reported outside that two victims had frozen to death. If Ye Chang had seen him earlier and found a solution, perhaps the frozen one would have recovered.

"As soon as you enter the city, you are trapped by worldly affairs, so it's too late." Ye Chang was also a little ashamed.

"A common thing... I heard that Ye Langjun and former Taile ordered Cao Shaokui to capture monsters in Dafuxian Temple." Yang Shenming stared at Ye Chang: "Do you know that the prime minister of the dynasty, Mr. Li admired your talents very much. My brother advised the doctor and heard Mr. Li say, "Ye Shiyi is very talented and intelligent, but only two regrets. His behavior is frivolous and his words and deeds are mean. These two are all ways to die. To protect talents in the country, you should not let Ye Shiyi be an official."

Ye Chang has done a lot of things over the past year, and that is, Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan know his reputation and indirectly date him. Therefore, it is not surprising that Li Linfu knows him.

What surprised Ye Chang was that Li Linfu actually commented on him like this - this was really a very honest evaluation.

With his experience in another life, he naturally had no shortage of talent, but his experience in another life made him a little cynical even when he was old, so he rarely had a positive sign in everything and refused to let others say that. These are his personality shortcomings, and he has suffered a lot of losses since the Tang Dynasty. Last time he was assassinated outside Chang'an City, he was close to death like never before, and Ye Chang, who came to this life inexplicably, began to reflect on him.

It was this reflection that he extended a helping hand to Yuan Zai.

Many people know about his problem, but not many people say it.

"However, you are trying to stop the disaster for me yesterday. I still want to thank you." Yang Shenming said again after he blamed him.

"What did Gong Ming say?" Ye Chang's heart moved and asked.

"That's the assassination of Shen Xi." Yang Shenming frowned and was very distressed: "I never thought... there would be such trouble."

Although Shen Xi and Ye Chang and others left, they also left two managers to deal with Wuhou Shop. Therefore, Yang Shenming knew that when Shen Xi was assassinated, there were sounds of closed doors and there were still many pedestrians on the street, so many people saw it on the spot. It was not surprising that Ye Chang was involved in it later.

Ye Chang was even more curious: "This Shen Langjun, I don't know if he is a child of the family, but the assassin actually wants to assassin him? Is there anything wrong with the identity of this assassin? Ming Gong is embarrassed because of this?"

"It's not just a dilemma, but it's okay for the assassin. I already know it, but I can't help it." Yang Shenming glanced at Ye Chang, said halfway, and did not continue: "This matter has nothing to do with you, and the assassin will not take revenge on you. You just have to worry about this. It's okay to assassinate Chen Xi. If you take the initiative to assassinate you, would you be like my Tang Dynasty soldiers not here?"

"this……"

After all, Yang Shenming did not clearly state Chen Xi's identity, and there must be a reason behind this. He didn't say it, and Ye Chang couldn't ask. His attention was shifted to the resettlement of the victims.

"That's true, there are 2,319 in total - now there are 2,317 victims. The days were better a few days ago. The weather has become colder these days, and people have frozen to death every day." Yang Shenming sighed: "Ye Shiyi, what are you doing? Tell me quickly."

"The treasury is empty?" Ye Chang couldn't help frowning when he heard the news.

It's only mid-October, and some people have already frozen to death. How many will they freeze to death in November and December?

With the power of Luoyang Prefecture, it is the place of the Eastern Capital, and it hosts more than 2,000 victims. It should not be a difficult task for this big city with a population of one million. I am afraid that there is some reason behind this.

"The saint wants to go east again." Yang Shenming's words made Ye Chang understand.

When the emperor went on a tour, it meant a huge sum of money. Not to mention anything else, the number of soldiers and officials accompanying him would be 100,000. So many people ate and chewed horses, and the food and drink of the servants who had to run for these people, all of which were consumed was not a little bit.

There are naturally food and money in the Luoyang treasury, but those money and grains are not something that Yang Shenming can use. He can use them, but he has to stay to guard against them from time to time.

"Nothing" Ye Chang couldn't help but curse in his heart.

When is this time? Li Longji was still thinking about the Eastern Tour at this time. Although the flood disaster in the summer was not too great, it also caused thousands of victims.

"At least, Your Majesty will definitely go to the Hot Spring Palace." Yang Shenming added, and then smiled bitterly: "So, I am really powerless. Thinking that you did not have any help at the beginning, I brought the people of a village out of the flood... I fully support you. Have you settled these more than 2,000 victims?"

"I'm not an official..."

"I know that you are not determined to be here, but for the sake of being a good deal, I have submitted a letter to the court. As in the case of Chang'an, I specially hired you as the official of Luoyang."

Ye Chang was speechless, Han Chaozong had a good start

The record is not a good person. Although he has a rank and can be regarded as an official of the highest level, this official position was originally prepared for those officials who are not as high level. They have no hope of the imperial examination and are promoted to the current level, so they are counting on this record.

It can be seen how embarrassing the positioning of the official position of "records".

As for adding the word "公" in the first place, it means temporary. It is used when there is something to do, and dismissed when there is nothing to do. Now it is called "公" and another generation is called "temporary worker". No matter which life, it is the best target to shirk responsibility.

This Yang Shenming is not kind, too

Ye Chang whispered a few words in his heart, but he was cursing in his stomach. Yang Shenming said over there: "You are not here, and I have known this for a long time. The position of power to register as a military officer is just to facilitate your actions. Other places in Luoyang are different from Chang'an, but there is one place that is just a place full of powerful people and no name. Even if you are a clerk, you will not be able to move."

"I'm adding a position of power to record the affairs, I'm afraid I won't be able to move." Ye Chang said with a wry smile.

"I said, I will give you whatever I want."

Ye Chang thought for a while, then said, "I stayed in Dafuxian Temple for a day, but it was not without harvest. With that, the first step should be to move the victims outside the city from the north to the east of the city, located between Jianchunmen and Luoshui. I saw that there were several open spaces. Now the autumn harvest has been completed and it has not been planted. I built a wooden house first to prepare for the cold winter.

"These open spaces are private fields."

"It's okay, at most, the beginning of the next spring, and these victims will be resettled, either returning to their hometowns to rebuild, or working in Luoyang City. When you go to the wooden houses on the space and space, you will be the owner of the private fields. The wood used in the wooden houses can be placed in Luoshui for easy transportation..."

The first thing to do to resettle the victims is to have a place to stay. Although Ye Chang did not go to the north of the city to see the victims' residences, he had already inquired yesterday that the victims' residences were just thatched huts that could not even cover the wind and rain, let alone keep warm.

He talked about his thoughts one by one, and Yang Shenming nodded repeatedly. After talking about the general framework, Ye Chang said again: "It is easy to say this and it is difficult to do it. How to do it? I have to go see the victims in person before talking about it... In short, it is nothing more than labor-for-relief."

"This is the key. Work-for-relief is ultimately about money and food. Where can I get a lot of money and food?" Yang Shenming sighed and said, "Where does the money and food come from? If you have money and food, why bother Mr. Ye?"

"A good woman can't cook without rice. She wants the horse to run away, and she doesn't eat grass. How can this be true?" Ye Chang couldn't help but complain, "You just said you would give me whatever you wanted."

"Except for money and food"

"It's really a brother's style." Ye Chang murmured in his heart.

Yang Shenming's identity is extraordinary. Strictly speaking, he was the great-grandson of the former Sui clan and Emperor Yang of Sui. His father, Yang Chongli, was responsible for the treasury and wealth for the Shaoqing of the Taifu, but was honest and self-righteous. His brother Yang Shenjin has his father's legacy and is accustomed to managing finances, so he likes Li Longji.

The support obtained from Yang Shenming was mainly verbal. In addition, some servants were assigned to Ye Chang's tribe. Ye Chang decided to go to the north of the city to see the victims, so he said goodbye. He left, and then he left. After his back, a person was transferred out from behind the screen.

"Do you believe this son?"

"This is the only way now. Brother doesn't believe him?" Yang Shenming bowed to the person who came.

Ye Changjue never expected that Yang Shenming's brother Yang Shenjin was hiding behind the screen.

Among the three brothers of the Yang family, Yang Shenjin was the most famous, with a sharp eye and good financial management. Therefore, he was appointed by Li Longji as the Shaoqing of the Taifu and replaced their father.

"This boy is in the west city of Chang'an. He has made great achievements in rectifying the appearance of the city. The cement incident has given Jingzhao Mansion a great source of wealth." Yang Shenjin's brothers are both majestic and arrogant. He raised his eyebrows: "It's a pity that Han Chaozong and others are so close that even the Taifu can't reach their hands. If you invite him this time, you must make a better deal than him and let him make a plan for my own use."

After a pause, Yang Shenjin said again: "Li Xiang wants to call me the Chief Censor again."

Although the Shaoqing of Taifu was a noble official, he was only a minister of financial planning in the court. The Chief Censor was not like this. If he went further, he might become a prime minister. Therefore, when Yang Shenjin said this, his voice trembled a little.

Yang Shenming immediately understood what he meant.

For the Yang brothers, this step is the key. If they can take it, the prime minister can expect it. But if they can't take it, that's all for their family.

Previously, Li Longji intended to be the Chief Censor of the Censor to commend him for his contributions to increasing revenue and reducing expenses over the years, but Yang Shenjin was afraid of Li Linfu and refused the appointment. Then, Yang Shenjin began to make good friends with Li Linfu, especially through his cousin Wang to establish a good relationship with Li Linfu. Li Linfu was very satisfied with his tact, so he intended to be the Chief Censor of the Censor.

But intentionality and action are different. If you want to get the real support of Li Linfu, Yang Shenjin still has to take action.

However, the "Post Disaster Emergency Questions" written by Yang Shenming was not valued by Li Longji, which gave Yang Shenjin an excellent opportunity.

"My foolish brother still doesn't know why his brother placed his hope on Ye Shiyi."

"My virtuous brother is not in the capital. I don't know the rumors in the capital now. It is said that Wei Jian, the transmigrant, may be the prime minister." Yang Shenjin said tactfully.

"Wei Jian?"

Yang Shenming immediately understood the causes and consequences.

Wei Jian was valued by Li Longji because of the canal transportation. To put it directly, he could send money and grain to Emperor Sanlang. If Yang Shenming could do a good job in Luoyang, it proved that their Yang family was not inferior to Wei Jian in delivering money and grain, and he would naturally be appreciated by Li Longji.

Although he did not have a direct conflict with Li Shizhi, Wei Jian and others, he indirectly helped Li Linfu, and Li Linfu also hoped that there would be support from the scheming planners. Perhaps it was for this reason that the disaster information in Luoyang went to Chang'an, but there was almost no movement in the center.

Therefore, the seemingly small disaster resettlement work in Luoyang City actually affects the whole body, which is related to the balance of the growth and decline of the forces of the two central parts of the Tang Dynasty.

"Also, Ye Chang has always been close to Han Chaozong and others." Yang Shenjin smiled again at this time: "What's strange is that Han Chaozong has never recommended Ye Shiyi as an in-class official, and most of them are looking for him to give advice. It's funny that Han Chaozong is also famous for knowing and recommending people. First, there was Li Taibai and then Ye Shiyi, and they all missed their relationship with him.

In order to seek officialdom, Li Bai wrote a letter to Han Chaozong, who was famous for his recognition and recommendation. This was the famous work of "Letter to Han Jingzhou", which was later a famous work of eternal origin. However, Han Chaozong probably felt that this person was exaggerated and did not recommend him. Yang Shenjin used this matter to mock Han Chaozong behind his back, but he did not know Han Chaozong's true intention.

Ye Chang was close to Han Chaozong, and Han Chaozong was close to Li Shizhi. Therefore, being able to bring Ye Chang to serve him to some extent, to reduce the power of Li Linfu's political enemies.

Why not do things that can kill multiple birds with one stone?

"Now, it depends on whether this Ye Shiyilang is famous and is actually difficult to tell, or is he really talented and learned." Yang Shenming realized the true meaning of this move and sighed.

Ye Chang is a bit of real talent and knowledge. Yang Shenming is waiting to see, while the victims outside the city are also waiting to see.

These victims came from several counties around Luoyang. When Ye Chang arrived, it happened to be the time for the morning porridge to be served.

These ragged victims all shrunk their heads and looked at the dozens of big pots in the porridge shed with their hot eyes.

"Everyone is optimistic."

A servant shouted, then grabbed a long chopstick and inserted it into the porridge pot.

I saw the long chopsticks twisting in the porridge pot, and although they were a little slanted, they did not fall down.

This proves that the rice and water are too much, and the victims sighed slightly: Today's meal can be considered full.

The porridge is in order and there is no competition. Ye Chang repeatedly emphasized in "Ask for Post-disaster Emergency Strategy" that the most important thing in post-disaster rescue is order. Yang Shenming, who has read this article, naturally attaches great importance to it. In addition, he can also be regarded as a capable official, so the situation Ye Chang saw is quite optimistic.
