As soon as the army set out, Gao Wei's disaster relief plan began to be implemented.

If it is a normal disaster relief, then Gao Wei does not have to plan for so long and just distribute the food directly. But this time it is different, Gao Wei will make big moves.

Gaowei not only needs to solve the disaster, but also needs to repair the main river traffic in the upper and lower parts of the Northern Qi Dynasty, open a few canals, and build a few water conservancy channels to make transportation between the north and the south more convenient. At the same time, it ensures that some areas in the north that are prone to drought ensure water transportation. The waterway convenience in Yuzhou must be used well.

And these victims are the most suitable labor force.

A month ago, Gao Wei used "work-for-relief" to give instructions, and Zhao Yanshen quickly issued an order. Within a month, refugees from all over the country had been dispersed and disrupted and lived outside the cities of major counties. The large-scale refugee riots in history have been greatly alleviated.

With Zhao Yanshen rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the treasury and the support of the aristocratic family, Gao Wei collected all the money and grain needed for the implementation plan.

The beginning of spring is the time to start implementation.

The most severely affected places this time were northern Jianghuai and Shandong.

First of all, Gao Wei wants to divide refugees into three parts.

It is also the vast majority of them, and it is divided into two batches. The first batch goes north to Youzhou, Pingzhou, Yanzhou and Shuozhou to reclaim wasteland, and the second batch moves to the Jianghuai generation in principle, and Gao Wei is preparing to mainly move refugees to Yuzhou and Hezhou. The waterways here are well developed and the land utilization rate is far from saturated.

That is, some of the group that are unwilling to reclaim land in other places. Gao Wei will allocate these refugees to various places to build water conservancy, open canals, repair city walls, etc. They will naturally return to their hometowns when the drought is over.

It is the voluntary group. If they are willing and pass the selection, the officials assigned to the victims will be sent to the camp in Yecheng. After training, they will be transferred to Jinyang, Luoyang, Youzhou and other places to guard the border.

Of course, due to the limitations of conditions, their treatment is slightly higher than that of regular troops, but they can become regular soldiers after staying in the army for three years.

To the greatest extent, the power of the victims can not only prevent the disaster victims from rebelling, but also build water conservancy and transportation. The Northern Qi Dynasty has a good terrain, especially the Jianghuai River, with many rivers. If the Northern Qi Dynasty can clear the river channels and open canals to connect the river channels, the value it generates will be immeasurable.

Gao Wei, the candidate needed for this disaster relief, has already been selected. The candidate from Shandong, Zhao County King Gao Rui, went to preside over the presidency. Gao Wei chose Bai Jian, who was in charge of Yuzhou.

Bai Juyi is a descendant of Bai Jian. Although Bai Jian is not famous in history, he is indeed a person with very strong business capabilities. His biggest advantage is not that he is smarter than others, but that he is mature and conscientious.

Gao Wei deliberately took him out of the cabinet just to make the disaster stable quickly. Although Bai Jian could not compare with Tang Yong and Yuan Wenyao's talent in governing the government, Bai Jiansheng was rich in experience. Gao Wei also inspected for a long time before he included Bai Jian on the list.

There are those who are responsible for the position, and there are those who are responsible for the overall situation of the Prime Minister. Gao Wei thought hard for a long time and finally chose Hu Changjie. Hu Changjie died early in history, but for some reason, Hu Changjie is still alive today. Perhaps the Hu Changjie in history may not be depressed.

Gao Wei also examined Hu Changjie. What did Hu Changjie say? His business ability is average, but his advantage lies in having a long-term vision and balance ability - that is, his ability to coordinate the overall situation is not weaker than that of Zhao Yanshen, and he can enable every colleague who cooperates with him to play his strengths.

Gao Wei did not choose some young and radical ministers, but instead favored old ministers, which was enough to show Gao Wei's attitude of seeking stability.

Young ministers such as Yuan Wenyao, although they are very talented and do have their own unique insights on government affairs, but they lack experience and are not stable enough.

In addition to Yuan Wenyao, there are more than a dozen officials from the aristocratic family, Gao Wei was very optimistic, so Gao Wei assigned them all tasks with a stroke of his pen and went to Gao Rui and others to assist in disaster relief, especially Gao Rui, which is the most serious. If the aristocratic family helps, it would be much less difficult.

The influence of the aristocratic family in the local area is no joke.

Before the imperial examinations were prevalent, the influence of aristocratic families was unparalleled. As the saying goes, a dynasty that flows through water and aristocratic families that were strong.

The names of aristocratic families are sometimes more effective than imperial edicts.

Among the famous Seven-Wang and Five Clans in Northern Qi, the six-Wang family of the Boling Cui family, the Qinghe Cui family, the Fanyang Lu family, the Zhaojun Li family, the Xingyang Zheng family, the Taiyuan Wang family, and the other one is the Longxi Li family. Li Yuan all wanted to recognize relatives from the Longxi Li family with a shy face. People may not like him, but you can imagine how high the status of the aristocratic family is.

The more than 10,000 private soldiers who were "donated" can see the huge energy possessed by the aristocratic family.

The reason why Gao Wei could use them as a knife this time was because before Gao Wei took office, the power of the aristocratic family in the court was very weak.

The children of aristocratic families were oppressed and excluded by the Xianbei ministers. Northern Qi itself was close to the Xianbei, and many management departments were replaced by Xianbei people who did not understand government affairs.

Not only did the Xianbei people not manage people's livelihood, but they also occupied the official positions in vain.

Children of aristocratic families are also facing an employment crisis, and Gao Wei just needs a strong force to help him.

Disaster relief, talents, checks and balances, no better help than a noble family, so the two hit it off.

The abilities of the children of aristocratic families are indeed worthy of recognition. Part of them were transferred to local officials, and soon the mess left by the former Xianbei officials was managed in an orderly manner.

However, there is also a threat to the growth of aristocratic families, that is, the family has a long history and is deeply rooted.

Some of them can even trace back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when generations of officials came from aristocratic families, creating such a huge creature today.

In an era when the imperial examinations were not yet very popular, aristocratic families monopolized almost all political resources.

It is not that no one has tried to break the monopoly of aristocratic families. For example, the recommendation system of the Han Dynasty and the nine-rank Zhongzheng system of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, but after implementation, these policies to select talents eventually became a competition for the children of aristocratic families. The origin of the so-called "there are no poor families at the top and no nobles at the bottom" is like this.

Gao Wei is also worried about the consequences of the aristocratic family, but he can only choose the aristocratic family at present.

There is nothing else, because most of the civil servants in the court now come from aristocratic families, and even if there are a few poor families, few are not dependent on aristocratic families.

It is not because the aristocratic family used despicable means, but because poor students faced a very embarrassing situation, that is, there is no book to read.

At that time, books were very expensive, and poor families would never have such luxury. Most of these books were held in the hands of aristocratic families.

If a poor family without reading books does not depend on aristocratic families, then there will be no resources to learn.

Not to mention, you want to curry favor with others, but do you have this connection?

Not all poor students will be so lucky.

First of all, in terms of knowledge, poor students are already behind the children of aristocratic families, and knowledge determines a person's ability from one aspect.

Therefore, even if students from poor families are given a fair opportunity to compete, poor families will not be able to compete with their noble families.

In the Sui and Tang Dynasties, when the imperial examinations were first opened, most of the people who passed the imperial examinations were children of aristocratic families, and few poor families had the opportunity to pass the imperial examinations.

At least Gao Wei has not yet discovered a poor man with outstanding ability.

However, it is not impossible to check and balance the aristocratic families and maintain a balance between the poor families in the court...

What about an imperial examination?

Gao Wei thought about it, but in the end he just sighed softly, and it was not yet time to turn against the aristocratic family...

【Then, it’s OK to have a smaller scale, right?
