Chapter two hundred and ninety-three: clean up the fields

Quan Yun stared at Wang Hou standing in front of him, feeling deeply moved. He had been a county magistrate in Shayang County for several years. Of course, he recognized this famous person in Feng County. When he first took office, this Feng County celebrity came to visit him and gave him a valuable gift. However, at that time, he did not take such a small person seriously, but let his housekeeper come out to make some politeness, drank a cup of tea, and then saw him off.

As time goes by, this person appears in the county magistrate's mansion again today, but as his deputy.

Although he is a deputy, today is different from the past, and the identity of this deputy is a bit unusual. He is a confidant of the new master of Shayang County. Yes, the new master of Shayang County, the young general who is too young.

When Shayang County changed its owner, Quan Yun was the one who was most afraid of. He was not like the wealthy families in Shayang County, with deep foundations. Even if a new owner was replaced, it was still impossible to shake their foundation. He was different. He was born into a wealthy family and could achieve his achievements today. It was completely supported by Mr. Liu. To this day, he still remembers that when he was still a small proofreader in Yuejing City, Mr. Liu invited him and asked him only: "Do you want to do a career?"

Just for this sentence, he became Quan Yun today.

A Quan Yun, who was tied tightly to Shayang County.

He was born in a poor family. Even if he had the ability, he could only be a small official in Yuejing who would not be noticed at all. He had to earn a meager salary and lived hard. After taking off his official robe, any small boss on the street would be richer than him. He thought he would be like this in his life, but Old Master Liu changed his life.

He regarded Old Master Liu as his mentor. With this person's support, he became the county magistrate of Shayang County in a short time and was in charge of the country. Of course, he also used his own ability to repay Old Master Liu. Shayang County has been in harmony in politics in recent years. Although the wealthy families are in power, the people have lived a comfortable life and become richer. This is his ability.

He used his ability in governance to successfully act as a lubricant between wealthy families and ordinary people, not only to satisfy these wealthy families headed by Mr. Liu, but also to make ordinary people feel that their lives are getting better and better. Only in this way can they have hope, can the two sides coexist peacefully without intensifying deeper contradictions.

Because Old Master Liu gave him this stage, when the conflict between Old Master Liu and Yuejing City began to intensify, he stood by Old Master Liu without hesitation.

Zhou Wenlong's death completely left him with no way out. He knew very well that he had definitely been on the blacklist of the left prime minister. If he left Shayang County, he would definitely not be able to survive for three days.

But what made him at a loss was that Old Master Liu left like this and handed over Shayang County to a person he didn't know at all, and this person was a young general.

Quan Yun had to worry about his future and his life. Now, he was not alone at the time, but had a wife, concubine, children, and the lives of a whole family were all maintained by himself.

Wang Hou came to the county government for office on the first day today, so he gave himself a warning, and he wanted to clean up the land.

This made Quan Yun both startled and angry. Cleaning up the land was a huge problem. If one was not done well, it would cause a disaster. As a wealthy family, Quan Yun was not sure about the poor government on the land, but as the agent of the wealthy family, he was unwilling to poke the pustules and did not dare to touch this taboo.

"Mr. Wang, is this what you mean, or General Li?" His voice was a little trembling, half shocked and half angry.

"Is there any difference?" Wang Hou smiled and said calmly: "Mr. Wang believes that the land problem in Sha Tin County has reached a time to solve it. Now, it is the best time to solve it. Once you miss this opportunity, you are afraid that there will be more chaos in the future."

"What kind of trouble will happen?" Quan Yunqiang pressed his anger and looked at Wang Hou with some disdain: "Mr. Wang, have you ever been exposed to such government affairs before? Do you know that this is a big deal that will motivate the whole body?"

Wang Hou walked back and forth in the house a few steps, looked at Quan Yun, and said, "Mr. County Governor, how much land is there, how much population is there, how much taxes and silver should be there per year, and how much grain should be there. I think the county Governor has a account in his heart, but in fact, how much has the treasury been invested, I am afraid it will be another account?"

"What do you mean?" Quan Yun took a deep breath. He now understood what the young general behind Wang Hou wanted to do.

"The things that should have entered the treasury ended up in their private pockets, and they were fertile and abandoned. It would be fine if it was Shayang County in the past. To say something that should not be said, Shayang County in the past was a bit inseparable from public and private, but now Shayang County is different. Whoever belongs to it is, whoever belongs to it. It is not yours, and you can't take a little more." Wang Hou said aggressively.

Quan Yun looked at Wang Hou and sighed for a while, and his tone softened: "Mr. Wang, when you were in Fengxian, you were also a wealthy landlord. You and I understand the hidden information here. I don't believe that when you were in Fengxian, there were no hidden fields and hidden households. Now that you have taken over the Hao family's property, it is another wealthy family in Shayang County. Under the name of the Hao family, these hidden fields and hidden households are even more amazing. These are all your property. General Li may not understand these things, but you won't understand them, right?"

Wang Hou smiled softly: "Today I have sent my housekeeper to start accepting the Hao family's property. Except for the official land deed and the tax paid in full on time, Wang will accept the land for the grain course. Wang will not ask for anything else."

Quan Yun was shocked and stared at Wang Hou: "Mr. Wang, are you going to be enemies with the other families in Shayang County?"

"You are wrong. I have never thought about who to be an enemy. I only know that we have embarked on a road of no return. If the people walking on this road cannot recognize the form and cannot change the past, they will only have to go to the guillotine sooner or later. Lord Quan, compared to Mr. Wang, you are a person who is knowledgeable and knowledgeable in history, and you will not misunderstand this truth. Shayang County is already unwilling tolerate. If we cannot strengthen the people and the army, we will be swallowed one day. At that time, we will die without a burial place."

Quan Yun sat dejectedly on the chair, looking at Wang Hou. How could he not know about these great things? But since ancient times, people have been blocked by people's wealth, and he has no capital to compete with those people. Moreover, if he really moves, the first person to be Liu, who is his benefactor. How can he do it? Moreover, even if he wants to do it, can he really move? Old Master Liu left, but in his opinion, Shayang County City is still the five great masters. Could it be that the one or two thousand soldiers under the young general can help? Just yesterday, Luo Ke, the Chen family, had just brought five thousand fully armed county soldiers out of the county city. Once something happened, the five thousand county soldiers would return, and he would be in a huge disaster.

"I want to see General Li, and I want to make a statement to General Li in person." Quan Yun struggled to stand up, "If you do this, it will not only not make Shayang County better, but will only make Shayang County fall apart, and will make the battle results obtained by finally repelling Molo. Even if the general wants to do it, it cannot be so urgent."

"Of course, sir, you can go to see General Li at any time." Wang Hou said with a smile.

Liu's house, small study room, Liu Chen, Huang Tianfang's patriarchs gathered together with heavy faces. Chen Jialuo led his troops out, and his younger brother Chen Jiahao replaced him. Li Feng's attempt to clean up the fields had already reached their ears. The five people gathered together and were discussing countermeasures.

"This is to dig our foundation!" Huang Xi said angrily. "Are you just in charge of your family, and you want to kill the donkey? Don't you see how much he has. This is not his Taiping City, but Shayang County City."

Fang Ke, the head of the Fang family, slapped the table and said, "The boy is too rude. He thought that now that Old Master Liu has left, Brother Chen has taken away another 5,000 soldiers. The city is empty, can he do whatever he wants? The private soldiers of our five families gathered together, but they are far more than his troops. Besides, in this Shayang County city, we raised our arms and shouted, and there were many people who responded. At that time, I was afraid that he would not regret it."

"What nonsense!" Liu Xingwen looked at him dissatisfiedly, "Now we have just repelled Molo. Shayang County has finally settled down. With such an internal strife, I am afraid that Molo will make a comeback. What's more worrying is that Yuejing will definitely take advantage of the situation. Don't forget that if Yuejing succeeds, we will die without a place to bury."

Tian Zhen was silent for a moment. At this moment, what he thought of was the young general, the understatement he used to treat the Qingsha incident.

"Kill her!" The three words "Kill her!" were spit out of their mouths, without any breath of fireworks. The momentum that those who follow me prosper and those who go against me died made Tian Zhen a little tremble.

"Old Tian, ​​what do you say?" Fang Ke turned his head and looked at Tian Zhen who had not expressed his opinion and asked.

"I think we can still discuss this matter well." Tian Zhen looked at everyone with guilt, "Maybe General Li is young and doesn't understand what's going on here, and Wang Hou thought he wanted to show up in front of General Li to have such suggestions. Didn't Quan Yun say he would go to see General Chen Qing? Why don't we wait first? If we come forward directly, we will confront each other and there will be no room for revolt."
