In Wuyi County, Li Che stood tall and said lightly to Yang Kai, who was seeing him off: "I have taken care of my little brother in my heart, and I will definitely repay it in the future." ”

Yang Xinghua bloomed happily and bowed again and again: "Doing something for the little prince is what the lower officials should do, and the eldest prince can rest assured." ”

Li Che laughed twice, beat the horse and walked away.

Wang Mingyi glanced at Yang Kai with pity, and also followed the horse to chase after him. Poor Yang Kai didn't understand the twists and turns here because his level was too low, and he also boasted for Li Ze in front of Li Che, what loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, love for the people, everything was not to push Li Ze into the abyss more, and more importantly, he also tied himself to Li Ze's broken ship a little tighter.

Yang Kai wanted Li Che to have a deeper image of him, and now that he had achieved this goal perfectly, Wang Mingyi, who was very familiar with Li Che, could see his disgust for Yang Kai from the depths of Li Che's eyes, this kid, it's over.

Looks like I'm going to have to find a way to cut off this guy. Brother Yang, Brother Yang, don't blame my brother for being unkind, it's true that I'm also a mud bodhisattva crossing the river now, and I really don't have the ability to pull you along. Ask for your own blessings!

Li Che seems to be very generous and tolerant on the outside, but with Wang Mingren, a person who has stayed by Li Che's side for a long time and is regarded as a confidant by Li Che, Wang Mingyi knows that Li Che is actually relatively narrow in his heart. Since he was a child, he has been the pride of the sky, and the stars hold the moon, but there is nothing left in his eyes. In addition, he himself is indeed competitive, so he is even more arrogant, he only feels that the heroes in the world are nothing more than that, and in the future world, there must be a place for him Li Che.

Now suddenly a Li Ze popped up. In such a difficult environment, he actually made a huge career, and when Li Che was still thinking about how to get more money to expand the armament and fill the treasury, Li Ze had already made a lot of money silently.

You must know that the innate conditions of the two of them cannot be compared at all.

Doesn't it seem that he, Li Che, is much worse than Li Ze?

If Li Ze was another wealthy nobleman with a similar identity to Li Che, Li Che might still be able to figure it out, but it was Li Ze who was partial.

How can a person he has never put in his eyes and never regarded as a threat, but suddenly makes him realize that he is so good, how can this make him feel at ease?

He was no longer his father's only option.

A layer of gloom appeared in Li Che's eyes.

Such a thing is naturally to be stifled in the rocking blue.

Of course, killing people, this is the next resort. Anyway, Li Ze is also his half-brother, if he really wants to kill him with a knife, it will be simple, but this will greatly damage his reputation, it will be stigmatized, and secondly, it will make his father dissatisfied with him, even if it is born by a little mother, it is also his father's blood.

Li Che is not like his father, who guards the one-third of an acre of Chengde wholeheartedly. After Gongsun Changming arrived in Chengde, in order to urge Li Anguo to join the alliance to defeat Lu Long, he analyzed the general trend of the world very clearly to their father and son, and both father and son were extremely excited.

Li Anguo is excited, if he really wants to be as analyzed by Gongsun Changming, then he will have a greater possibility of becoming virtuous, because he no longer has to worry about the imperial court suppressing him in the name of righteousness. And Li Che was excited, but he saw a bigger opportunity.

The world will be the same, would you rather have a kind?

Since it is a great chaos in the world, there will naturally be heroes, in this world, who can hold the bull's ear, it depends on the guy in his hand to speak. Why doesn't Chengde have a chance?

It is precisely because of these considerations that Li Che is unwilling to let his reputation be damaged, over the years, in order to have such a good reputation as now, how much he has sacrificed and how much he has endured! How can you waste your work in this matter?

If you want to compete in the world, a white and flawless reputation, it is indispensable. Can't underestimate such a reputation, he will attract more people of insight, talented people to come to like, if his reputation of killing his brother spreads, it will only make people sneer and make people laugh, not to mention attracting talents to vote, but I am afraid that the internal will also be detached. At least, Li Anmin of Zhaozhou, this second uncle is definitely good at finding trouble, and Li Ze is also a member of the Li family, even if there is no serious person to enter the clan and enter the family tree. But does it matter? If you want to find a ballast, you only need to have such a reason.

Li Che was depressed in his heart, Wang Mingyi was a little frightened in his heart, anyway, after contacting Li Ze a few times, he still recognized Li Ze from the bottom of his heart, but this time he sold him cleanly, and now he was forced by Li Che to see Li Ze himself, and he was really a little uneasy in conscience.

The two of them did not speak, and the more than 100 knights accompanying them naturally kept silent, and along the way, they could only hear the sound of horses' hooves.

Wuyi is a small and remote place, and it is rare to see hundreds of heavily armed knights running on the main road like this, and when passing by some villages with a slightly concentrated population, it will inevitably attract onlookers.

This is also Chengde Li Anguo's governance of the place over the years is quite benevolent, the common people are not very afraid of being soldiers, in a place like Henghai, seeing such a formation, I am afraid that every household is closed and closed, praying for God's blessing not to cause any trouble.

As soon as he entered Li Ze's circle of influence, Li Che immediately saw the difference. Even though the ground is still covered with snow, the outlines of the fields can still be seen, and the irrigation system that surrounds the land is clear at a glance. Although the houses are all adobe houses, they are not basically covered with thatch, unlike other places, but are all tiled.

A group of dogs ran after the knights from a distance, leaving strings of plum blossoms on the snow, and in the courtyard walls made of those fences, chickens and ducks and other poultry were rummaging in the snow to eat, and when they heard the sound of horses' hooves, they only craned their necks to glance at them, and then retracted and continued their work of wild food with concentration.

Some of the little dolls were dressed tightly, stuffing snacks into their mouths, and staring curiously at the samurai by the fence wall, and then adults hurried out of the house and carried their children into the house, and the adults, without exception, were all very well dressed.

As far as the eye can see, Li Che feels rich.

And this is actually extremely rare, at least in Li Che's opinion, the people here live a much better life than the people in Zhenzhou. Zhenzhou is the seat of Chengde Zhi, and the policy is naturally much more relaxed, whether it is taxation or forced labor, it is much lighter than the other three states, but a village like this cannot be found in Li Che's image.

Li Che has been cultivated as a successor since he was a child, but he is not only excellent in martial arts, but also one of the categories of his study, and when he sees the scene here, he will naturally not be untouched.

Affluence means more taxes, abundance also means more children will be born, there will be more soldiers, and abundance means that Chengde has greater war potential. In the end, it is not only the bravery of the army, the military strategy of the generals, but also the money.

Because you'll have stronger soldiers, better armor and weapons, more logistics, more pay and rewards for your soldiers, and higher morale.

In the 25 counties under the rule of Chengde, there are about 100,000 households and nearly 600,000 people.

Seeing all this, Li Che was even more jealous of his younger brother who had never met before.

Such a person must no longer be allowed to grow wild outside, he must be controlled by himself in the palm of his hand. Since you are talented, of course, you can't bury it, but you can only do it under one premise, that is, to do things for yourself.

Li Che feels that he has the capacity to accommodate people, and he also has the skill to control people.
