Chapter 019: Shen Lian's persistence

Thinking of the idea of laying the foundation of Donghai Town at the Grand Canal, Zhao Zongwu's mood also became very comfortable, after all, this is a strategy to decide how to better consume the living force of Jiannu.

can wear away the vitality of Jiannu, then for the whole of China, this is a great achievement!

Zhao Zongwu should be remembered by future generations.

Although in many places in the Ming Dynasty, none of them think that it is impossible for a small and small Dongyu to destroy the Ming Dynasty and finally sit on the world......

But this excitement that belongs to Zhao Zongwu alone, after he entered Jinan Mansion, this comfort has changed.

At the same time, this also brought everyone who accompanied him, and his heart began to become heavy.

On March 27, the second year of the Apocalypse, Leling, Jinan Prefecture, the people in the territory had no fixed residence, and more than half of the land cultivated had been seized by the gentry and wealthy merchants;

Many of the people of Leling have been reduced to tenants and domestic slaves, and the household registration that should have existed in the Daming fish scale book has disappeared in a high-sounding manner after colluding with the officials.

And in Leling, the earth dragon turned over more than once, which also made it more difficult for the local people, but the local government ignored it, blindly thinking about its own interests.

Due to the turning of the earth dragon, the river in Leling was changed, which also caused a number of land to be flooded, and the local gentry and wealthy merchants did not care about the lives of the people at all in order to minimize their losses.

What makes people feel even more infuriating is that during this period, some people even deceived the people under the pretense of heaven's will......

On March 29, the second year of the Apocalypse, in Ling County, Jinan, the people in the territory were waiting to be fed, although the place was not big because of the dragon turned over, the earthquake was not big, but the land annexation was more serious.

Due to the deliberate misguidance of the local gentry and wealthy merchants, the local people, in order to ensure their own livelihood, sold their land at a low price.

Due to the serious local superstition, in order to achieve the above point, the gentry and wealthy businessmen colluded with demons and thieves and monks, and used charlatans to deceive the people.

Miraculously, this also makes the local people believe in this......

On April 2, the second year of the Apocalypse, Yucheng, Jinan Prefecture, although the damage to the land was not serious, and the land annexation was compared with Leling and Lingxian, and the eating appearance was still within the normal range.

But this does not mean that the people of Yucheng have an easy life, because of the showdown of Liao, so that the people of Yucheng, who have been affected by some of them, spend all day in sorrow.

After all, the newly apportioned Liao salary needs silver to pay, which is a great disaster for the ordinary people!

On April 5, the second year of the Apocalypse, Licheng of Jinan Prefecture, as the capital of Jinan Prefecture, is also a more serious area that has been shaken by the earth dragon, and Licheng is also not much better.

One out of ten houses in the city collapsed, the city walls cracked, and the people in the city were panicked because the earth dragon turned over.

Walking on the desolate street, Zhao Zongwu was in a very low mood, although he had a bottom line in his heart, but after all, he didn't expect that this situation was far more serious than he imagined.

Nowadays, in the mountains, the silver needed to buy one stone of grain can be bought three stones of grain in the past, and the sharp increase in grain prices will eventually harm the people at the bottom.

Black!

It's so dark!

But as a strategy finalized by vested interests, how can these people, who are struggling at the bottom, be able to resist?

Even if the price of food is dark, what can you do except passively bear it?

Although this cannibalism has not yet appeared, most of the people in Licheng are in a state of semi-starvation all day long, which is a very normal thing.

As he went deeper into the life of Daming, Zhao Zongwu no longer thought that he was playing a game, this was a living world!

I once thought that coming to Daming would be just a game to occupy the first position, but now Zhao Zongwu has already changed his mind.

As a result, the indignation in Zhao Zongwu's heart became more and more intense.

The experience of the past few days has made Zhao Zongwu understand a truth.

If you want to truly control your own destiny, you must master the absolute means of production, and only in this way can you become a master in Daming.

The means of production are not only land, but also rivers, cattle, tenants, and so on.

In the eyes of the gentry, most of the time, the tenant was nothing more than a tool for them, without any emotion and without any emotion!

What they need to do is to continue to cultivate their fertile land through tireless labor, so as to rely on time to precipitate, and finally get the deserved and precious food!

"My lord! Someone is stalking us! ”

Walking on the desolate streets, although Zhao Zongwu and his entourage looked very eye-catching, no one paid attention to them at all, after all, the current Licheng is most concerned about the food problem.

But at this time, Shen Lian still found something unusual, as early as when he was in Yucheng, Shen Lian was subtlely aware that someone seemed to have been watching in the dark.

Although Shen Lian didn't find such a trace on the way, his instinctive sixth sense told him that there was indeed a secret whistle in this dark place!

Listening to what Shen Lian said, Zhao Zongwu was also shocked in his heart, to be able to chase the sentry for such a long time, and let them not know, then this team is indeed not simple.

Zhao Zongwu frowned and said, "How many did you find?" ”

Shen Lian stepped forward and said in a low voice: "I only found a few signs, this time the sentry is very vigilant, but the more like this, the more this matter may not be so simple!" ”

Hearing Shen Lian say this, it also made Zhao Zongwu's heart vigilant, the street is not so safe, if you want to find out the forces behind the scenes, it is better to find a safe place first, after all, there are many weak people in the entourage.

Chen Qiyu and Sun Chuanting's safety must be absolutely guaranteed!

What happened and what they saw made Chen Qiyu completely fall into the stage of doubt and questioning, they never thought that such a place existed in Daming!

Bully the top and press down!

Chen Qiyu They didn't expect that in the mountains?|There is such a serious phenomenon, although most of them are seen in Jinan Prefecture.

But Jinan Mansion as a mountain?|The capital of the city, the rich Jinan Prefecture is like this, so what will be the situation of the other prefectures and prefectures?

They couldn't even dare to think deeply, because this matter is not worth pushing deeply!

So this also made their state very bad, so that when they were placed, Chen Qiyu and they didn't realize that the danger might be approaching them.

For Zhao Zongwu and them, there is nothing wrong with thinking about other things when there is no danger, but once there is any crisis, the first thing they need to deal with is the crisis!

As a staunch idealist, Zhao Zongwu firmly believes that everything in this world depends on his own struggle, even if there are many difficulties on the way!
