C614 The Unusual Travelling City (1/2)
”The people can make it their own, but they cannot make it known... Emptiness Realm! Xiao Letian, this monster actually knows these governance methods? Great Qing's misfortune … ”
Just as Lord Third was visiting the sulcus longus engineering project, a sigh came from their side. Turning their heads to look, it was actually Qingliu Leader Weng Tonghe.
At this time, Weng Tonghe also saw the Fuqing, so San Ye politely smiled and cupped his hands towards him.
”Ah, Qing San Ye, you are also from a noble family. Why did Fuche have a traitor like you? What Xiao Letian did in the capital was nothing more than dig up the hearts and minds of the people of the imperial government. Furthermore, he even used such outrageous methods like prophecy and ballads, what did he mean by having food with the Prime Minister? If he, Xiao Letian, is able to manage a city, then how can he control the whole city? ”
”He doesn't care. He's just pretending. He's just trying to take advantage of the imperial court. He's just bullying the ignorance of the people!” Weng Tonghe vented all his anger onto Fuqing.
Qing San Ye did not have the mood to bicker with him, he only said a few bland words, ”I'm doing it, the heavens are watching!” With that, she ignored him.
”You!” Weng Tonghe looked at Qing San Ye's back, and was so angry that the roots of his teeth were itching, but he couldn't do anything about it.
”Come, let's go to the palace. I want to see the empress dowager …” Weng Tonghe's only hope now was to convince the empress dowagers. Seeing Xiao Letian's plan to reform the sulcus longus, he knew that the princes and officials could sell anything for money.
No matter what methods Weng Tonghe wanted to use, the character of the Qing San Ye and the rest of the people in the travelling city had not weakened by even a little. After leaving the sulcus longus, the group walked towards the big fence on foot, and it was time to find a place to lunch at noon.
Along the way, there were Qing Dynasty soldiers cleaning up the place, the patrolling new army was wearing brand-new military uniforms, and carrying their Gun, they were shouting ”one two one” as they walked through the streets. At this time, all the eyes of the citizens were no longer filled with fear, and even the little kids dared to carry their wooden sticks and study at the back of the army line.
”One two one …” ”One, two, one …” The childish voice of the child was met with laughter from the adults. This was a love that San Ye and his men had never felt in their lives before. An army that people respected but did not fear was something rarely seen in history.
The clean streets, the newly painted walls, and the sense of security that the patrolling army gave the citizens, all of them felt as if they were in a dream. There were no longer beggars on the streets who begged for food, nor gangsters with red arms. Under the threat of the Gun, not even thieves dared to commit crimes.
It was true that the New Army loved the citizens as their children, but it was true that they suppressed their crimes when they saw them. Previously, when a few gangsters tried to rob the department stores in troubled waters, the new army saw a row of Gun s and nailed them to the wall without saying a word.
A new army wouldn't care if you were wronged or not, if you still ran away after shouting three times, don't blame us for being ruthless. The corpses of the dead bullies were hanging at the intersection, intimidating all the unscrupulous ones.
The peace and order were unprecedented, the city was so clean, the price of 40 square meters was a once in a hundred years, and there was also an army that never bullied the common people.
To be honest, the scholars like Weng Tonghe admired Xiao Letian's methods. It was impossible for him to turn the capital city into a state of unwillingness within a few days. But it was a pity that all of these belonged to Xiao Letian, not them. Scholars with red eyes could only look at Xiao Letian with even more hatred.
Bang bang bang … After the sound of several gongs, a few bailiffs pulled at their necks and roared, ”The Prime Minister's order …” Hire a bold and bold woman, and set up the red cuff! As long as you become the red cuff, you get three liters of rice every month, it's a rare opportunity, it's good that you come early … ”
”red cuff? ”What is this?” Mu Ginger looked doubtful. He waved at the bailiff and asked, ”Come here, let me ask you, what is the red cuff?”
The bailiff with the gong instantly recognized Qing San Ye, Mu Gelou and the rest. He quickly knelt down and started beating them up, ”Greetings Lord, this humble one pays his respects to you …” This red cuff is an organization set up by the Prime Minister. It is to gather all the shameless, fierce women who dare to curse the streets and fight, and let them help to maintain the security and cleanliness of the city! ”
”How so? These red cuff s were responsible for keeping people at bay and scolding others. Their ancestors had scolded them for stinking, scolding them so hard that they would have to take care of cleanliness for the rest of their lives … ”Sigh, this Prime Minister is great everywhere, it's just that he loves to be clean too much …”
San Ye and the rest were dumbfounded, they did not think that Xiao Letian would play like this, was he trying to unite all of his power? You even want to borrow Madam's power?
As he spoke, there was suddenly a row in the alley, and the bailiff stuck out his tongue, ”Sir, look, didn't red cuff already start cursing? This group of spicy women, the moment they heard the word 'scolding', gave them three liters of rice, they all went crazy! ”
San Ye followed the sound and walked into the alley. In the end, there was a sea of people inside and all the neighbors had come to see the commotion. He saw three women with big feet, with their hands on their waists, cursing at a closed door.
”Grand Scholar Hu, you shameless old bastard who gave birth to a son without a butt, and has a head full of sores and pus flowing from his soles …” The prime minister had spent money to paint these snow-white walls with white ash. How dare your family break through the dirty water? ”This alley's hygiene is all contracted out by us three sisters. If you break our rice bowls, we'll dare to scold you …”
”Pah …” He was an Elementary Scholar who would never become a High Scholar in his entire life. Serves him right for cutting off all his descendants. Your wife is bringing you a green hat … Your daughter-in-law raised a wild man, and you are a shameless turtle yourself … ”
