"Arrest them." Before dinner, the Huazhou Provincial Governor failed to invite Li Yi and met him.
They saw the first Tang dynasty inspection team led by Li Rizhi and Liu Youqiu. Both of them were scouts.
They came to arrest people, then sealed the accounts and the treasury.
Li Rizhi and Liu Youqiu were still familiarizing themselves with their new positions. They were only responsible for Li Longji.
The other inspectors of the Tang dynasty had nothing to do with them. They were above the other officials under His Majesty.
The two of them knew what Li Longji meant. He didn't want to give them too good positions, but he also thought that they had done meritorious deeds. He was afraid that they would take things too hard.
Therefore, he set up a separate department and gave them a lot of power.
It was the first time they were used today. They knew a few officials in Huazhou.
So what if they knew them? They used to be above them, and now they could still deal with them.
Since they were going to be exiled, they naturally had to search their houses and see how many good things they could find.
The more good things and money there were, the bigger the problem was.
Huazhou's leadership team was wiped out in a wave of grievances.
The two of them were in charge, and they would deal with the state affairs.
"I finally understand what our regiment is for."
Liu Youqiu looked at the past official documents and said to Li Rizhi.
Li Rizhi nodded. "I know. We arrested a group of people. When there are more people in the regiment in the future, it will be easier to help deal with local affairs."
The two of them understood. They were all experienced officials.
What about the local affairs if they arrested people? They had to wait for Chang 'an to arrange for people to arrive.
During this period, they needed the local stability.
After they arrested people, they could stay in the local area for a while, waiting for the new officials to take over.
They were familiar with the process of the imperial court and had experience in the local office. There would be no obstacles for them to connect up and down.
"Let's see if Li Yi has time tonight. Let's have dinner together."
Liu Youqiu opened a few documents and frowned. He saw the problem. He was too greedy.
If it were another inspector, he probably wouldn't be able to find the problem. He understood.
"Okay, I've long wanted to meet this amazing young man. It's said that no problem is a problem in his hands. How arrogant. "
Li Rizhi knew that it was Li Yi who instigated the First Patrol Group to appear. At the same time, it was Li Yi who mentioned his name that His Majesty pulled him into the group.
When they arrived at Chang 'an, they realized that Li Yi was really something.
If he had money, he could help the people earn money.
Donating a hundred thousand taels at a time during a war, he simply didn't see money as money.
Chang 'an Chengzhong used the Li Family Zhuangzi's exchange coupons. He could issue currency privately.
Moving the Emperor's private army tonight was as easy as moving his own Zhuangzi's Zhuangzi.
He had to see what kind of person the other party was. He was so powerful that he defied the heavens. Could it be that he wanted to rule the world?
During dinner, Li Yi was invited to have dinner at the provincial government office.
The food was provided by him, and he didn't drink. Previously, he had accused others of drinking, but now, he was drinking …
"Old Liu, Old Li, have you been waiting for a long time?" Li Yi brought food over and greeted Li Rizhi and Liu Youqiu with a smile.
The two of them were stunned and looked at each other. Sure enough, they were familiar with each other.
Bi Goo was called "Old Bi" when they first met.
Now, it was their turn?
"How dare you, Li Yi. Do you know your crime?" Liu Youqiu asked with a straight face.
"That's enough, Old Liu. Don't learn from Old Bi. Look at what I brought for you two."
Li Yi opened the lid of the rectangular basket that he brought over.
"I just arrived last night. It's not convenient to transport things in Zhuangzi because of the disaster, so I'll just have a bite."
Li Yi said as he took out the dishes.
There was a plate of dried cowpeas fried with bacon shreds, a plate of steamed dried fish, a plate of preserved eggs dripped with vinegar, a plate of fried eggs with Chinese toon sprouts, and finally, a plate of crucian carp soup.
The main dish was rice with garlic, eggplant, pickles, and fermented bean curd.
"Actually, if I wanted to eat something good, the farmer would send it to me. But looking at the people, I really can't eat anything good. So I just have a few bites to fill my stomach."
Li Yi laid out the dishes. He took a salted egg and cut it into three portions with a knife. The oil even dripped out.
The two of them looked at each other again. They felt that Li Yi was showing off.
There were four dishes, one of which was his soup, pickles, and salted goose eggs. How could this be called making do?
"What do the people in the disaster eat?" Liu Youqiu raised his eyebrows.
"It's the same. As I said, I'm embarrassed to give them special treatment. I want to share the joys and sorrows." Li Yi looked sad.
"The people don't feel bitter, do they?" Li Rizhi looked at the dishes and wondered what was bitter about them.
"The houses are gone and the furniture is broken. How can it not be bitter?" Li Yi arranged the plates and chopsticks.
"Yes, it's bitter." The two of them said at the same time.
But did the bitterness of not having a house have anything to do with food?
"It's enough for the people to have wheat rice and pickles." Li Yi was afraid that Li Yi would spend too much money and lose too much.
Li Yi nodded and then shook his head. "It's fine to cook wheat porridge, but I have to give them confidence. If I say that I can help them solve their winter problems, they have to believe me."
Li Yi explained why he gave the people in the disaster good food.
The people who were eating outside were just like Li Yi said. They ate the four dishes and the soup and didn't dare to eat more.
They ate a small mouthful of the dishes and a big mouthful of rice.
There were meat and eggs in the dishes. In the past, when there was no disaster, they couldn't be seen during normal times.
The people in the disaster ate better. They wanted to cry.
"Everyone, eat the dishes. Otherwise, who will eat the leftovers? We didn't have time to transport too much fresh meat today. We can only make do with one bite.
Don't worry. Starting from noon tomorrow, there will be good food. Dongzhu said that eating too much cured meat is not good for the body. "
The farmers were persuading them with the same tone as Li Yi.
When the people heard this, they wanted to cry even more. It had nothing to do with the disaster. Today's dishes were only made with one bite?
"Do you usually eat this in Zhuangzi?" A man in his thirties with a slightly swollen forehead asked the farmer next to him.
"Who usually eats this? There are dozens of dishes. When there is cured meat, the kitchen will only make a little. Otherwise, there will be leftovers. No one likes to eat it.
Also, this dried fish doesn't taste as good as fresh fish after steaming.
The best way is to roast it. First, soak the dried fish, brush it with sauce, add some cumin, and serve it with wine.
We also eat very little of this century egg. You can't cut it with a knife. You have to use a rope to strangle it.
Dongzhu said that there is no lead in this century egg. The disadvantage is that it takes a long time to solidify. There might be bacteria, so you have to use aged vinegar … "
The farmer introduced the food and talked about many things in Zhuangzi.
When the people in the disaster heard this, they felt that the people in the Li Family Zhuangzi were living like immortals.
In the Li Family Zhuangzi, they only needed to work according to orders. They didn't need to care about anything else.
Moreover, if they were hungry in the middle of the night, they could look for food.
"Therefore, when Dongzhu said that he can help you, you don't have to worry. Zhuangzi has money and things."
The farmer finally said the most important thing to give the people in the disaster a sense of confidence.
In the disaster area, the people were first comforted and then thought of ways to solve the problems.
In the end, the work was done by the people. They were not enthusiastic and couldn't help even if they were exhausted.
The people in the disaster area did not understand Li Yi's strategy. They only felt that this year's winter would not be a problem.
In the future, they would see what Li Dongzhu arranged. They would definitely follow his instructions.
Children who were sensitive to adults' emotions became lively. After eating a few mouthfuls, they went to play with their neighbors' children.
