After Cao Shuo occupied Huainan, Sima Yi purchased grain and cloth from various places.

A large amount of grain and cloth were transported into Huainan.

The amount of grain and cloth that the treasury enters and exits every day is amazing.

In Shouchun City, the people lined up in long queues to collect grain and cloth.

Next to the team, a Cao army soldier walked around the line with a cylinder made of iron rings: "Listen to the people of Shouchun, the young master has an order. Any craftsmen with craftsmanship will report to the craftsman's mansion. The young master will arrange a livelihood for you. Huainan is no longer short of food and clothing, but does not raise idle people who are good at eating and laziness. Regardless of men and women, everyone must have a livelihood. If they really don't know what to do, they can go to the village outside the city to collect land and plow the fields."

The people in a long queue received food and cloth, and they were all happy. How many people listened to him carefully?

Chen Gong and Sima Yi stood behind the soldiers who were distributing supplies.

Looking at the people who received the supplies, Sima Yi asked Chen Gong: "What do you think of the young master?"

"Although the young master and Cao Mengde are father and son, they are very different." Chen Gong said: "The first thing he thought of was the suffering of the people when he seized Huainan"

"Actually, Cao Gong is the same." Sima Yi said: "Those who accomplish great things cannot be bound by trivial matters. The Gongtai may not know that when the young master kills people, he is even more cruel and decisive than Cao Gong."

"But he saved the people of Huainan." Chen Gong said: "The treasury goes in and out so much food and cloth every day. If it were Cao Mengde, it would probably hurt a lot."

"Actually, the young master is also very painful." Sima Yi smiled slightly: "It's just that there is no way to get Huainan. If the people are gone, this is just a barren land. If you want the people to support you and then achieve great things, the first thing you have to do is to give them a way out."

"I have also walked through many villages recently." Chen Gong said: "Not talking about those villages that are no longer human, but only those villages with people. The rest of the village is the elderly and women, and there are very few children."

"This is what the young master is worried about." Sima Yi said: "Yuan Shu exploited too much, and the people of Huainan refused to give birth. In another twenty years, there will probably be a lot of people here. That's why the young master encourages giving birth. I hope that in ten or twenty years, Huainan will be prosperous and hustle and bustle!"

The two of them were talking, and the crowd queuing outside suddenly became riot.

Someone shouted, "Young Master is here!"

Whether they were still queuing up or getting supplies to leave, the people who had already received the goods and were about to leave, they all knelt down when they heard the shout.

In an instant, the road was full of people.

Chen Gong and Sima Yi quickly came out.

Cao Shuo, surrounded by Cai Ji, Wei Tu and a team of guards, came to the place where he received the supplies.

"I've seen the young master!" Sima Yi and Chen Gong saluted and greeted him.

The people were even more crying. From the "Prince's mighty" they shouted, everyone who made the shouts came from the heart.

"Get up!" Cao Shuo said to the people: "The family is still waiting for food to fill their stomachs, waiting for new clothes to make winter clothes."

The people stood up one after another, and before the guards let them stand behind, they consciously retreated a lot, keeping a certain distance from Cao Shu.

In the eyes of the people of Huainan, Cao Shuo has become the god who saves them.

Walking to the supplies being distributed, Cao Shuo grabbed a handful of white rice, looked at Sima Yi and asked, "Are these rice sent from the south?"

"Young Master is urging grain to urge you." Sima Yi replied: "In addition to millet, I also have someone collect it together with rice."

"Rice is considered essence of grain." Cao Shuo asked: "Can Huainan plant it?"

"The climate between the Jianghuai River and Huai River is suitable, and what you plant will grow." Sima Yi said: "If you can become poor here, Yuan Shu has a good governance!"

Cao Shu smiled slightly: "The governance is good. If Yuan Shu heard you praise him like this, he wouldn't know how proud he would be."

He turned around and shouted to the people: "People, with these food and cloth, can you survive this winter?"

"Thanks to young master!" said an old man standing in front of the crowd: "If it weren't for young master, I don't know how many people would die of starvation this winter!"

"I can't bear to die of starvation!" Cao Shu said with a smile: "Without you, what's the use of wanting Huainan? The territory without people is just a piece of land. With people, this territory can be called a country! To me, you are the most important thing!"

The words Cao Shu shouted were very ordinary, but in the ears of the people of Huainan who had been oppressed by Yuan Shu for many years, it seemed like a warm current passed through their hearts, making them excited.

"I'm not hiding it to everyone, I'm in a difficult situation now!" Cao Shu said: "I have finally obtained some money and food for years, and I have spent all my money and food on going out to fight. Now I'm also struggling and poor."

When he said these words, the people present stared at him.

No one spoke, the scene was so quiet that even people could hear each other's breathing.

"To be honest, if I hadn't found some money from Yuan Shu's house, I wouldn't be able to afford food and cloth." Cao Shuo continued: "Even if there is that money, I still owe a lot of foreign debts with both hips!"

Cao Shu's words were vulgar and the people laughed.

"Don't laugh, I'll tell me the truth." Cao Shu said seriously: "I'm not afraid of debts, but for you, I'm not afraid of debts! I'm just afraid of one thing, that is, you and I have different hearts and virtues!"

"We will do whatever the young master wants us to do!" someone shouted in the crowd.

"I'll be relieved with you!" Cao Shu said: "I don't ask you to pay off your debts with me. I'll say the same thing. Huainan will not collect taxes for ten years! I only ask you to have more children and raise more pigs after you go back, so that we Huainan people will flourish and every family can be prosperous!"

Turning his head to look at Chen Gong, Cao Shu said, "Tell the people all the things you have done recently."

Chen Gong responded, stepped forward and stood slightly behind Cao Shu, shouting to the people: "Young Master asked me to open a clinic and recruit doctors to see the people for free. From then on, no matter whether it is a serious or minor illness, there is no need to worry about no doctors treating you. You also opened a craftsman's mansion. Craftsmen with craftsmanship can report to the craftsman's mansion. From then on, as long as they concentrate on craftsmanship, they can support the whole family. Not only that, villages outside the city are also being built, and the land is also being measured. In short, everyone in Huainan will have something to do, everyone has food to eat, and everyone has clothes to wear."

Chen Gong said a full incense stick or two before he talked about what he was doing.

The people all looked shocked.

They never dared to dream that after Cao Shu occupied Huainan, they actually brought them so many benefits.
