The government of Chang'an City issued another edict.

"Spring ploughing is imminent, and anyone who owns more than five acres of land must cultivate it on time, otherwise it will be treated as the crime of abandoning fertile land."

This law has long existed to prevent large landlords from hoarding land in their hands, but buying low and selling it high, earning the hard-earned money of ordinary peasant households, and then co-opting ordinary peasant households into tenant farmers after they have gone bankrupt.

The red line of the imperial court is clear and clear, and Chang'an, an important town, does not allow land to be wasted.

The big landlords suddenly couldn't sit still, they also wanted to act in accordance with the edict, spring ploughing or something, do it early, but the problem is, the tenant farmers at hand have been scraped away by Li Ran in various ways, and they are used to reclaim fertile land?

No, the tenant farmers must be brought back.

The big landlords quickly grouped together and asked Li Ran for an explanation, and if this kid didn't agree, he would forcibly break the contract.

The abacus is shrewd, behind them is the local official power platform of Chang'an City, a few days ago by Princess Taiping to sow discord, making the relationship tense, at this time just take the opportunity to abandon the previous hatred and hatred, first "invite" these two Luoyang outsiders out of the talk.

These small actions naturally appeared in the lace news of the logistics intelligence site.

"Auntie, what do you think?"

In the palace, Li Ran and Princess Taiping sat opposite each other, enjoying delicious juice and wine, she liked the glass invented by Li Ran very much, which was full of luxury.

"This group of big businessmen turned against the sky, they used to be unclean under the nose of the mother emperor, and after the mother emperor moved the capital to Luoyang, their courage became bigger and bigger."

Princess Taiping's face was full of anger, and her hand holding the wine glass faintly revealed green tendons.

She was upset...... After getting the authority to take charge of the key departments of the yamen, he was surprised to find that various government decrees could not be implemented, and even the daily operations, the lower-level officials were in disobedience.

Gotta kill some blind flags!

was worried that he didn't have a chance to do it, so Li Ran gave a big gift.

Of course, she has a cautiousness that is not commensurate with her temper, tens of thousands of local officials at all levels in Chang'an, if you hug the group, it is definitely a force that should not be underestimated, when Wu Zetian just established the Great Zhou Dynasty, he just couldn't suppress the local forces in the city, and he couldn't control the situation 100%, so he chose to move the capital to Luoyang.

"Well, I've got an idea."

Li Ran smiled and had a showdown.

Princess Taiping is a very good gun, but she has to be provided with a bull's-eye, hoping that she can solve the problem as if she could take advantage of the situation, then she is not Princess Taiping, but an enhanced version of her mother Wu Zetian.

"Officials at all levels need to be paid, a penny suffocates heroes, there is no money, they are worried about supporting their families and have no time, how can they have the energy to make trouble with your aunt?"

Li Ran is slow and reasonable, obviously has been thinking about it for a long time, in fact, dealing with the intricate relationship is also a test for him, if he can successfully win the dominance of Chang'an City, and then face Wu Zetian, he will definitely not be stunned again, in popular terms, the political level has been upgraded.

"The officials' salaries come from two aspects, the first is naturally the salary issued by the imperial court, most of which comes from Chang'an taxes, aunt, you might as well find a reason to owe a salary for a period of time, so that they have no rice to cook, and kill their sharpness."

"Second, it is the filial piety given by all sides, how normal is the collusion between officials and businessmen, and even the benefits given by big businessmen and landlords are more than salaries.

Princess Taiping nodded again and again when she heard this, and said with a smile in her eyes, "Good nephew, I didn't expect that you not only have the ability to divinate and ask for good fortune, but also have a hand in dealing with troubles, okay, just do what you say." ”

Li Ran smiled and said no more.

In fact, in his plan, Princess Taiping was also tricked...... If she doesn't pay her salary, she will lose money, but Li Ran can cut off the private bribes of officials and businessmen, but she can do it in a grand manner.

Calculating the time, Zheng Su and the others should also go to Luoyang, so how Wu Zetian would be furious when he saw the dignified Chang'an Assassin Shi so depressed, he could imagine it with his toes.

With the political literacy of this girl, the first reaction must be to deal with the power vacuum in Chang'an, whether she will recognize the benefits that Princess Taiping has already possessed, it depends on how the two girls collude.

Therefore, before the feedback from the Luoyang side arrives, we must use the time when Princess Taiping is in power to defeat the already stubborn class in the city.

An invitation was sent to Li Ran's desk.

It was a joint invitation from the big landlords and businessmen, and the location was set in the Moon Tower, or the private room.

At first glance, it is a Hongmen banquet...... Li Ran happily agreed and brought Pei Min Shi Ran to the scene.

The owner of the restaurant closed the door directly and did not do business, he saw the murderous posture of the merchants, how dare he stay for a second longer, after the dishes and drinks were ready, he hurriedly flashed people.

Li Ran sat at the top of the table, facing a pair of tigerish eyes, and smiled slightly.

"Move your chopsticks, aren't you hungry?"

"Immortal Master Li, the contract we signed with Cheng Ji Firm a few days ago was a little flawed, and we asked Immortal Master to invalidate it and sign a new one."

Of course, the merchants had no interest in eating and drinking, and the opening line was straightforward, "In addition, return the tenant farmers to us." ”

The aggressive momentum made Li Ran couldn't help but directly take out the bronze mirror and look in the mirror.

He looks like a harmless little white rabbit?

"What if I don't say yes." , Li Ran knocked on the desk, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

"If you don't agree, I'm afraid that the tenant farmers will rise up and stop doing it, delaying several projects of the immortal master, I'm afraid it's not good."

The businessmen sneered in unison, the people are theirs, it has only been a few days, how can Li Ran be able to control it.

"Do you plan to find a few henchmen among the tenant farmers, let them fan the flames, cause a mass riot, and then sue me for forcibly conscripting the people and competing with the people for profit after the panic spreads?"

I looked at the news of the logistics information site, and it didn't fall word for word.

The businessmen suddenly had a ghostly expression, which link was wrong? How could he have predicted his own actions!

"Are they what you're looking for?"

Li Ran smiled and pointed to the cloth pocket in the corner, and the merchants wondered why Pei Min was carrying this thing when he entered the house.

When it was opened, everyone was instantly scared.

It's all heads!

The head of their henchmen among the tenant farmers!

"I have dealt with the construction progress of the emperor's mausoleum in accordance with the law, and told the tenant farmers to do a few tasks on time, and after completing a certain progress, I can grant them fertile land and restore their status as farmers."

From tenant farmers to cultivators, the difference between one word and the treatment is very different, the former helps the big landlords to work, while the latter owns their own land!

The businessmen were stunned, this kid is afraid that he is not out of his mind, it is tens of thousands of tenant farmers, even if each person only divides a few acres of land, he has to lay a foundation of 100,000 acres of fertile land, and the land that can be reclaimed around Chang'an City has long been reclaimed, where can he find land?

When they saw Li Ran's smiling expression, the group suddenly shuddered.

land assets, each of them has a huge amount in their name!

In a trance, it seemed that a butcher's knife was cut off on the head.
