Chapter 363: Proposal(2/3)
"Well, time has passed and there is no need for you to take it to heart."
Liu Bei said he was grateful to Xi Yu, and at the same time, he was thinking in his heart that he hoped to use Xi Yu's platform to become independent in the future.
But now it seems that this is a very difficult thing.
And Liu Bei suddenly became curious. Now that Liu Bei only had soldiers stationed in Fang State, who would be entrusted with handling some of Fang State's major military and state affairs?
Liu Bei never expected that it would be Mao Dacheng.
But now Mao Dacheng is no longer the emperor.
Moreover, there are soldiers taking care of themselves, just waiting for Liu Bei to come and take over.
However, Liu Bei could not get the title of emperor even if he was just a manager.
He can be called Liu Gong.
"But Mr. Xi, the people here still won't have enough to eat in a short time."
Xi Yu felt very relieved after hearing this question, which proved that Liu Bei really cared about the issues here.
This is the best. Only by truly treating yourself as the master can you do better things. Only by treating the people as your subjects can you shoulder your responsibilities.
"Do you think you and I are just traveling around the mountains and rivers? The reason why I walk slowly is to enjoy the scenery, but also to let the grain transport army arrive."
Xi Yu said that he had transported grain from Youzhou and Pizhou to temporarily solve the people's problems, and then talk about other land reclamation and production.
Of course, Cao Pi also contributed food to him, and Sun Ce also sent people to transport food from Jiangnan.
Liu Bei was confused. Sun Ce had become a showman. It was natural to transport grain, but why did Cao Pi do this?
Xi Yu remembered that he sent someone to deliver a letter to Cao Pi a few days ago, hoping that he could send some food to aid Fang Guo.
When Cao Pi received the letter, he discussed it with everyone.
Xi Yu was very polite. Although he said he wanted to borrow food temporarily, if he didn't pay it, Xi Yu would probably attack him.
Now his strength is not enough to compete with Xi Yu, so he can only obey.
It's just a symbolic transportation, but it's enough to solve the people's problems.
Xi Yu said that the food delivery army should be coming soon today, so they must go to the city gate in advance to greet them.
When the two people arrived at the city gate, they saw many people here.
The people heard that Xiyu would come again, so they looked forward to it every day.
Xiyu was shocked.
I didn't expect these people to be so down-to-earth, so they kept waiting every day.
He immediately saw the people kneeling down.
Hope Xiyu solves their ecological problems.
"Player, last time we all knew that you owned this place, we were all very happy and even set off firecrackers. Moreover, those areas affected by the disaster also avoided excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, but after all, there are still many people who are suffering and unable to eat."
An old man boldly asked Xi Yu how to solve this matter?
Xi Yu said that the last self-study was not explained clearly to everyone, and this time is to solve this problem.
Soon, the food transport team will arrive, and the troops will be divided into several groups.
Everyone was overjoyed, and the old man said: "I just said it, how could the actor leave everyone alone?"
Seeing everyone's surrender, Liu Bei was also filled with joy.
Because he could see that the people were sincerely surrendering, which was not something ordinary people could achieve.
So Xiyu really has two moments.
The key issue is that he really regards the people as his real people, just like his own children.
And Xi Yu suddenly remembered two events from his previous life.
I have a female friend who often helps out-of-school children and children in impoverished mountainous areas.
But later she was criticized by people, saying that she broke the laws of nature.
Because there must be poor and rich people in the world, so that the poor can struggle and the rich have the motivation to live.
But what she does is just narrowing the gap between the rich and the poor, which is absolutely undesirable.
As a result, the girl was so depressed that she committed suicide.
The girl thinks that many people are too poor to eat. What’s the use of talking about these theories here?
There is also a friend who also does charity, but was suspected of withholding money from him.
Because if there is no benefit, you can’t afford it early. If there is no benefit, how can you do such a thing?
As a result, many people did not believe him, and he fell into a reputation of being just a man who was just trying to gain fame.
When he thought of this incident, Xi Yu's eyes began to glaze over, and the people did not dare to speak.
Liu Bei quickly asked in a low voice: "Player, what's wrong with you? What are you thinking about?"
Xi Yu was stunned for a moment, and then quickly introduced Liu Bei to everyone.
"I have named him Liu Gong. Of course, his Liu Gong is still not on the same level as me, the actor."
He asked everyone to obey Liu Bei's management in the future, and Fang Hao would no longer have an emperor for the time being.
The old man who spoke immediately understood what Xi Yu meant, because Xiyu wants to rule here, and the supreme leader here cannot be called the emperor.
It is equivalent to Fang Country no longer being a country.
It seems to have become a county town in the Central Plains region, but it doesn't matter, as long as you can live a good life during the day, you can call it whatever you want.
And some people also asked, when will the food transport team arrive?
Xiyu said that it was almost done today.
But now he and Liu Bei were going to wait on the tower.
An hour later, the grain transport team finally arrived, and the first team was from Youzhou.
Xi Yu handed over the matter to Liu Bei.
Let him see which places were affected by the disaster, how much food each person needs, and the remainder will be temporarily given to the treasury.
Xi Yu was also very angry because the official food was no longer available. It was usually sold to other countries by some high-ranking officials and Minister Mao in order to obtain more benefits from them.
Although this work was a bit tedious, Liu Bei did it immediately, together with some squires.
And when these squires knew that Xi Yu was here, they didn't dare to sell it anymore, and they immediately cooperated with Liu Bei's work.
The second team is the team that criticized Pizhou.
The third team is Sun Ce's team.
Cao Pi's team arrived the last, and the food was shipped the least.
After this, Liu Bei turned a deaf ear to Xi Yu.
He thought it belonged to Cao Pi, disrespected him, and deliberately looked down on Xi Yu.
"Well, don't talk nonsense. After all, it is very valuable that he can lend it to us. And since it is a loan, of course it must be returned to others. If we borrow too much, we may not be able to afford it back."
Liu Bei laughed, Xi Yu was so powerful, how could he not be able to repay the debt?
At dusk, Liu Bei arranged for people to line up and then began to distribute food.
And those refugees who were making trouble in other places also returned to Fang Country at this moment.
They knew that Fang Guo had a wise master from now on.
Everyone who shared the food had tears in their eyes and thanked Liu Bei.
Liu Bei said: "You must not thank me. You should thank the actor. All this is his credit. I just distributed it for him."
The entire grain distribution process is extremely long.
When it was over, Liu Bei was already a little tired, but he felt very relieved because he saw the people's eyes filled with tears.
Xiyu also prepared a banquet for him.
"You worked hard today."
"Master Xiu, you went too far. Thank you for giving me such an opportunity. I learned a lot from seeing those people like this."
"Very good, the purpose of letting you do so much is to make you truly love the people like a son."
"Drama Master, I will never betray your trust."
Liu Bei seemed to have something to say, so Xu Xiyu asked him if he had anything to say, there was no need to hesitate.
"Xi Gong, you said that Fang country cannot have an emperor, and it means that Fang country is no longer a country. In this case, it is better to change Fang country's name."
Xi Yu was stunned, yes, this issue has not been considered. Without the emperor, it seems a bit inappropriate to call it a country.
"Then let's call him Fangjun"!
Originally he planned to call Fang Zhou, but Xi Yu felt that it would be easy to cause Fang Zhou.
To be continued...
