Chapter 129: Showing Fangs

Liu Wei himself also tightened the strings, quietly watching the movement of Xiyuan, he had already made plans, once his cheap father was a little dissatisfied, he was ready to come out with a huge amount of money, enter the palace to ask for guilt, to coax his father, Qinghe's plan He can't let go, he can only try to exchange interests.

However, it was the news that Liu Hong was drunk. A crucial temptation and cultivation unfolded.

Liu Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart, even if he felt relaxed because of Liu Hong's ignorance, he didn't understand why Liu Hong's change was so big all of a sudden, so he could only think that Liu Hong was discouraged......

Why did the eleventh emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, who killed Dou Wu, depose the Empress Dowager Dou, monopolize power, suppress the party, and beat the ten permanent servants, suddenly settle for pleasure and ignore the government.

Although Liu Hong bought officials and sold knights, but the country has continuous natural and man-made disasters, the imperial court can not collect taxes, it will not be able to provide disaster relief, and the situation will be more serious in the second year of disaster relief, falling into an endless cycle of death, donating money to become an official is actually a continuation of the phenomenon of the entire feudal society.

And Liu Hong did not do anything wrong, after the introduction of the policy of selling officials, Liu Hong frequently used the excuse of famine and man-made disasters to transfer the positions of the three dukes, attracting those officials who wanted to be the three dukes and were not qualified to move the crooked idea of donating money to be, and successively came to Yan, Chen Tan, and Liu Yi as Sikong, Zhang Hao, Chen Qiu, Meng Yu, Qiao Xuan, and Xu Yu as the captains, and Guangluxun Chen Guo Yuan Peng and Guangluxun Yang Ci as Situ.

To list so many names, I want to say that these people basically don't rely on real skills to become the third public, but on donating money, and the starting price is 100 million yuan! The longest of them did not spend two years in a single position.

Liu Hong did this, firstly, he stretched out his hand to disturb the ironclad faint alliance of the families, and once again balanced the forces of the DPRK and China, and secondly, he squeezed out a huge amount of wealth from it, otherwise, the Han Dynasty has been plagued for many years, how can Liu Hong have the money to build this West Garden!

Duan Xi, the reinstated lieutenant, did not last long, Duan Xi asked himself to step down as a lieutenant, Liu Hong was added as the general of the chariot cavalry, and the top was the highest general position in office, and the general has always been vacant, and Duan Xi only got this position.

It is because without Liu Hong's restraints, causing the two factions to be like wild horses that have escaped the reins, and now the contradictions between the ten permanent servants of the DPRK and the ten major boards of the family have subsided in the shadows and mentioned the surface again, and this time, Liu Hong does not care......

The disaster of the Wei family did not end, under the bitter pleading of the Wei family, he hemorrhed heavily, and took out a sum of money to atone for his crimes, Wei Long was changed from exile to captivity.

The Wei family was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, when the businessman surnamed Zhang came to the door with a look, the Wei family pulled the skin and wanted to blacken this matter directly, and the businessman surnamed Zhang showed his golden signboard!

That's "Liu...... Oh no, Yizhou Wu family! In fact, if you think about it carefully, you can understand that there are not many families that can take out so much silk, and the Wu family is the overlord boss who monopolizes the silk in Shuzhong!

Some people may be unfamiliar with the Wu family, but it occupies an important position in history, the Wu family has two famous figures, one is the famous general Wu Yi in the later period of the Shu Kingdom, Prime Minister Zhuge Liang Northern Expedition to Cao Wei, and Wei Yan in Yangxi to break the Wei generals Guo Huai and Fei Yao, promoted to the left general, into the Gaoyang Township. The second is Queen Mu's Wu family. After Liu Yan entered Shu, in order to win over the richest Wu family in Yizhou, he married his son Liu Mao to the Wu family. After Liu Mao's death, Wu became a widow, and then Wu married Liu Bei! and gave birth to two sons, Liu Yong and Liu Li.

When people have enough power and status, on the other hand, people will also lose a lot of things, marriage is like this, when Wu faced Liu Bei, who was sixty, did she really want to marry in her heart? And what did Mrs. Sun think in her heart? But can it all stand with those women?

"Aha, want to pay the bill?" The merchant surnamed Zhang laughed angrily all of a sudden, Wu Kuang, the Zhonglang general who was stationed outside Luoyang City, was of the same clan as the Wu family, and there were all kinds of people outside the Wei family's shop who were inexplicably having trouble finding the Wei family. The silk and satin shops all over Luoyang City suppressed the Wei family together, no matter how low the Wei family sells, the silk shop outside will always be 100 yuan lower than him!

The merchant who provided the goods also came to the door to inform him that he would no longer supply to the Wei family, which made the Wei family even more desperate that even the last struggle, the caravan that was transported to Liangzhou was all intercepted halfway, and the goods were placed at the door of the Wei family as they were, and there was a group of Wei family members who broke their hands and feet and did not know whether they were alive or dead.

In the end, the Wei family could only give in, because even if they mediated, they could not find anyone, because the other families whose interests were damaged by the Wei family sat on the wall and were happy to have prejudices. Liu Bian's plan to capture the past has completely brought the Wei family into the status of the "handful" of people in the plan.

The Wei family's struggle did not last long, and soon in order to compensate for the loss, the Wei family abandoned and sold all the assets and fields in the Guanzhong region that had been accumulated by the clan for hundreds of years, and left the gambling table as a loser, packed up his things and returned to his old nest to make his fortune, Hedong County.

Most of the fields flowed into Liu Wei's pocket, and the silk as the fist industry of the Wei family was basically eaten by the Wu family, and the leftovers flowed out and caused a bloody "fight". The reason for the Wei family's exit, everyone has long forgotten in front of interests, and the rabbit is sad when the fox dies? If that rabbit had a fox, he would only cheer with joy!

The businessman surnamed Zhang took the "friendship" written by Liu Bian, respectfully bid farewell to Liu Bian, and embarked on the road back to Shu.

Most of the big salt merchants in Luoyang are from the Xuzhou Mi family in the land of Qilu, Xuzhou has a vast coastline, although Qingzhou is more qualified than Xuzhou to make sea salt, but since the first year of Guanghe, Qingzhou is the most serious area, thieves, homeless people are as many as cattle hair, as a human life necessities salt in the wolf and tiger service place, how can it be intact.

For the Central Plains, there is no salt production area, either from Qilu and Jiangdong along the coast, or can only eat the well salt in Shu. Compared with Shuzhong, which is difficult to transport salt from Shu Road, Xuzhou can be transported by water, and it has a unique advantage in cost.

The people sent by the Mi family soon replaced all the Qingzhou salt merchants and monopolized the non-salt-producing market in Guanzhong, and salt in ancient times was like oil now, a strategic necessity! As long as people don't eat salt for a few days, they will get a big neck disease, and they will lose their strength and even die.

Even the fist products of the caravans that connected the customs were salt, iron, silk, and tea.

After the people sent by the Mi family earned a huge amount of wealth, they became independent, and the arrival of Mi Cheng caused everyone's panic and hatred, and they wanted to resist the Mi family together, and no one was willing to give up the boss's wealth to others.

However, Mi Cheng's plan to wait for the rabbit soon worked smoothly, less than two days, there were wavering Mi family people came to visit Mi Cheng's residence, the former walked out of the yard and bumped into the latter at the same time, it was a sworn common advance, but at the same time stood here, except for an embarrassed smile, nothing else to say.

After all, no one knows whether the opponents who are also allies and enemies want to kill themselves, and no one wants to fall to the ground and be eaten up!

Three days later, Mi Cheng regardless of the cost, began to crush the salt merchants who still did not choose to serve the Mi family, and quickly rectified the Luoyang salt merchant industry in this chaotic capital, and the Xuzhou Mi family regained power.

In China, if a businessman can become bigger and stronger, there must be a relationship with officialdom, just like the size of the Mi family, and the friendship of fellow villagers was an important relationship in ancient times. In the later period, the power of the township party became an important symbol of the clear factional division of the power struggle, and the Zhejiang Party and the Jiangxi Party used the background and teacher of the Juzi to divide the sect into obvious regional factions.

The same is true for doing business, Jin Shang and Guangdong Thirteen Lines are usually one person who makes a fortune in a certain business, and when he returns to his hometown, he will bring his own small partners to form a group to make this business a national monopoly, such as the modern "Putian Department", as well as those few express delivery companies that reach and pass.

Mi Cheng, who dragged his sick body, knew that the wealth of the Mi family would last for a long time, and the Mi family would be smoothly passed on to his son Mi Zhu. It is necessary to support the township party members of their own family to shelter the Mi family, so as to be the retreat of the Mi family. Soon, there was a person who appeared in his sight, his surname was Tao Mingqian, the word Gongzu, he had just been promoted from the local area to worship as a speaker, and he was in the limelight for a while, a native of Danyang County, Danyang County, Xuzhou!
