Chapter 1284

The next day, early in the morning.

About six miles away from the Lord's mansion, it is the granary of Wulei city.

The granary covers a wide area and is built solidly. Not only that, outside the granary, there are troops stationed to ensure the safety of the granary. When Ji Mu was defeated and retreated, it was too late to destroy the granary, so that Zhang Xiu could easily seize the granary and control it.

Outside the granary, it was also an open space.

The terrain is very broad.

It's not a problem to accommodate more than 100000 people.

And early in the morning, outside the granary, people have gathered one after another, around the granary, in twos and threes, talking about Zhang Xiu's announcement.

Most people think that Zhang Xiu is now ready to open a warehouse to release grain.

Otherwise, the news will not be announced in the granary.

With the passage of time, from all sides of the granary, a steady stream of people gathered. By the end of the day, the whole granary was already overcrowded, with countless people gathering.

Looking around, it's full of heads.

There are countless black and white people. But these people have one thing in common. That is, these people are not fat people, they are all thin people, even skinny people.

After all, they are ordinary people.

There are even a lot of untouchables.

On each face, are brimming with bright smile. Many people, in particular, carry sacks like sacks so that they can hold grain.

In the crowd, there are Afanti and other nobility in Wulei city.

These people are not here to get food.

It's for jokes.

Around them, there were circles of slaves to ensure that Afanti and others would not be detained.

As time goes by, many waiting people are anxious. While the people were waiting anxiously, suddenly, a voice came from not far away: "Your Majesty is here!"

This voice comes, all eyes turn, Qi brush brush to see the direction of Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu was protected by soldiers.

Where he passed, the soldiers made way.

Not long after, Zhang Xiu has come to the door of the granary. Standing on the platform already built at the door of the granary, his eyes swept the crowd outside the granary, which is also quite shocking.

At a glance, the number of people gathered here is no less than 60000 or 70000.

This is not a small number.

Zhang Xiu coughed twice, then raised her hand and pressed it down to signal all the people to be quiet. The gathering of 60000 or 70000 people, even if it was a very low voice, when more people gathered together, the voice was buzzing, lingering outside the granary, making the whole granary outside noisy. Even if Zhang Xiu spoke, the people behind her could not hear him.

As Zhang Xiu signaled the people to be quiet, and the boos of the people rang out, the whole scene gradually quieted down.

Everyone was silent.

A pair of eyes, fell on the body of Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu took a breath and said in a loud voice: "yesterday, I sent a notice in the city saying that I would announce the news outside the granary. As for the announcement, I didn't say. You don't know. You just speculate on it. "

"However, many people don't know why I chose to be in the granary. I tell you that the first reason is that the news to be announced has something to do with grain. The second is to let you know that I have enough food. "

"There are countless grains in the granary of Wulei city."

"In addition, today, all the nobles of Wulei city will join hands to donate 200000 stone grain to me, so that I can dispatch grain and stabilize the local situation."

"The reason why I want to say these two pieces of news is that I want to tell you that I am not short of food. I have enough food in my hands at any time, and there will be no shortage of food. "

Zhang Xiu talked and made an opening speech.

This has nothing to do with the news Zhang Xiu wants to announce, but in fact, it is also a very important message.

After hearing this, the people didn't pay much attention to it.

The reason is simple. They only want food. As for the others, they don't care and are not interested.

Zhang Xiu said, "there are three pieces of news I want to announce."

"First, with the help of 200000 stone grain donated by the families of Wulei City, I plan to set up a special grain shop in Wulei city to be responsible for the purchase and sale of grain."

"This grain shop, run by the government, is not only in pursuit of interests, but also in pursuit of public welfare effects and relief for the people. No matter how high the price of grain on the market is. "

"The price of this grain shop will not change."

Zhang Xiu continued, "this is my first arrangement. I will use the 200000 stone grain to enliven the business of grain merchants in Wulei City, so as to ensure that the people can buy grain easily, so that they will not be unable to buy grain even if they have money."

All the people were happy when they heard the words.Although they did not distribute grain directly, it is not bad that they can buy grain at a very low price. With such a basic guarantee, the grain price of Wulei city can be reduced.

When the people heard it, they cheered as well.

Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down again, indicating that all the people were quiet. After all the people who spoke were quiet, Zhang Xiu continued: "the second thing I want to announce is to continue to implement work relief in Wulei city. When the government recruits people to work, the amount of food you can get will double, so as to ensure that the whole family can eat and wear well. "

"Thank you, your majesty!"

When Zhang Xiu's new order came out, many people cheered and their hearts were filled with hope.

They finally had a chance.

They finally got through it.

Compared with the cheers of the people, Afanti and others standing in the crowd are angry.

What about the distribution of grain?

Up to now, not a hair has been seen.

Afanti was furious and clenched his fist. The rest of the nobility in Wulei city also had anger on their faces, just like Avanti, they were angry in their hearts. But they didn't dare to show up, so they had to hide in the crowd.

Zhang Xiu looked at the boiling noise of the people, the heart of a big stone is also landing.

It's done.

Even if Zhang Xiu did not distribute food to the people, the people were glad to hear Zhang Xiu's second news. Because they can earn money to support their families by working.

After some discussion, the people spontaneously shut up.

One by one, they stopped talking.

With a faint smile in her mouth, Zhang Xiu said again: "the third point I want to say is that you are no longer guishuang people. Now, you should call yourself Qin people. Because now, you are the people under the rule of the Qin Dynasty. "

After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "I have said before that we should abolish slaves and nobles and caste system. Now I can tell you clearly that this matter will certainly be carried out, not for fun.

The people are even more excited.

For ordinary people, even slaves, they were targeted by the nobility of Wulei city and lived at the bottom of Wulei city. Now I have the chance to get rid of my identity and become a real person. I'm very glad.

Seeing this, Afanti wanted to vomit blood.

What about opening warehouses to release grain? "

Afan saw that Zhang Xiu didn't mention the issue of distributing grain, so he specially arranged a man to ask a slave under his command why he didn't distribute grain.

These words spread to Zhang Xiu's ears.

Many people also look at Zhang Xiu.

Waiting for Zhang Xiu to explain.

Zhang Xiu looks in the direction of Afanti and sees the questioner, but Afanti hides early. Even if Zhang Xiu takes a close look, she doesn't find Afanti himself.

Zhang Xiu stopped for a moment and explained, "in yesterday's notice, I didn't mention opening warehouses and releasing grain. I didn't mention distributing grain. The reason why I chose to stay in the granary is to tell you that I have enough food to support my work and the operation of the shops. What's more, in my opinion, it's better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. Only if you can make money on your own is the long-term way

After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "I hope you can support a large family by your own ability."

The people are in awe of Zhang Xiu.

After Zhang Xiu's explanation, there was no common people criticizing Zhang Xiu, but they all supported her.

Afanti stood not far away, looking at the explanation of Zhang Xiu. He wanted to aim at Zhang Xiu, but the slaves and the people around him recognized her, so Afanti's words came to his lips and he didn't dare to say them.

Afanti stood in the crowd and could only watch Zhang Xiu persuade the people.

After Zhang Xiu's words, she has finished the matter. He just wants to win the hearts of the people with the help of this. Especially after Zhang Xiu's words, countless people in Wulei City Trust Zhang Xiu, and they are willing to follow her.

This curtain fell in the eyes of Avanti and others, but they were so angry that they wanted to vomit blood. Because this return of grain to Zhang Xiu, in vain to help Zhang Xiu a big favor, they did not get anything.

Even, Afanti and others brought countless slaves to the granary to get food. But now Zhang Xiu does not open a warehouse to release grain, they are empty handed and busy.
