The settlement of the marriage means that Sun Yang's private affairs are all settled, and he is also beginning to prepare to move Chaisang, but before that, there are still Li Ru and Li Feng's affairs to be resolved.

On the third day after marrying Dong Yi, Li Ru couldn't help it, and took the initiative to ask to see Sun Yang, after all, now that the raw rice has been cooked and cooked, Li Ru thought, this time is good enough.

"Meet Wu Hou!" After Li Ru entered Sun Yang's study, he hugged his fists and said.

"Wen Xian students don't have to be polite, please sit down!" Sun Yang smiled, stretched out his finger and pointed to the seat under his head to signal Li Ru to sit down.

After Li Ru sat down, Sun Yang also spoke first: "Hehe, Wen Xiansheng, the Japanese Marquis has been too busy these days, sir, please forgive me!" Sun Yang said a humility, since the last time he met Li Ru, Sun Yang has not seen Li Ru again.

"Wu Hou said with a smile, this Jiangdong Mountain is good and the water is good, Wu Hou, you take care of us like this, how can you mention neglect?" Li Ru hugged his fists again, speaking of which, he has traveled all over Wu County in the past few days, and what he has seen and heard is enough to shock him! Although the scale of this Wu County is far less than that of Chang'an and Luoyang, the world's big cities, the liveliness is not inferior at all, and even surpasses it! In his heart, he attached a little importance to Sun Yang again.

Along the way, Li Ru is not only responsible for the task of sending relatives, but also for their camp to see the situation in various parts of the world, passing through so many places, in this war that has lasted for several years, especially in the places that have been deeply affected by the Yellow Turban Thieves, except for the towns that are slightly better, the rest of the places have withered in manpower, which can be said to be the people's livelihood.

Although Jiangdong has not experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it is a barren place, and it has never been a place that can be put on the table for such a long time, but only a few years have passed, Li Ru is sure that in the current world, except for Jiangdong, which is an acre and three points of land, there is no such prosperous place.

Seeing the benefits, Li Ru will naturally pursue the reason, and through the exploration of the past few days, he has also found some stunned news, and it can even be said that Li Ru can't believe it at all!

The news that can shock Li Ru is naturally about the Jiangdong family, in his cognition, most of the land in the world is in the hands of the family, it can be said that if the princes of the world do not have the support of the family, it is basically difficult to get into trouble, for example, for example, they seem that their Xiliang Army is self-made, but behind this there is also a group of families to support, if there are no these families, it is difficult for them to succeed.

But the situation in Jiangdong was reversed, when he heard that all the families in Jiangdong did not have any land in their hands, he couldn't believe it at all, and it wasn't until he confirmed it again and again that he was sure that it was the truth! It turned out that all the land in Jiangdong had been used as official land and distributed to the people for cultivation, and the tax was extremely low, not even one-tenth of the most ordinary tax!

The tax is so low, then the question is, where did Jiangdong get so much money and food to feed so many troops? Driven by curiosity, Li Ru also went to inquire about the news through various channels, and it was not until he spent money to buy an official in Wu County that Li Ru understood some of the major policies in Jiangdong clearly!

After knowing the reason, Li Ru's surprise was even worse, he didn't expect Jiangdong to grow like that!

It turns out that Jiangdong can develop so fast because of money! From the mouth of that official, Li Ru learned that Sun Yang's policy all along had been to encourage business, accumulate huge wealth through commerce, and use this wealth to build Jiangdong into this!

And what surprised Li Ru the most was that the land in Jiangdong was originally in the hands of the family, but he didn't know what means Sun Yang used to make these families in Jiangdong give up the land accumulated by their families for decades, or even hundreds of years, and actually go to business! Therefore, Li Ru can also understand why Jiangdong's business is so developed, because Jiangdong is basically a business for the whole people!

After fully understanding these beginnings and ends, Li Ru knew that Sun Yang was completely a madman, and he had achieved a feat that no one had been able to accomplish all these years!

Regarding the threat of the family, Li Ru actually understands it very well in his heart, just in the past few hundred years, many people have tried to find a way to subdue these families or change the situation of the family's dominance, but without exception, they all ended in failure! As for the reason, it is very simple, the supreme power in this world is basically in the hands of the people of the family, even including the imperial power!

And those who try to change all this are basically the children of the poor family, but the cold forces are still too weak, and in the face of the intertwined family, they are soft-spoken, and they can't affect the overall situation at all! In addition to the children of the poor family, the royal family has also used many methods, but they are all symptomatic but not cured, and in the end, it is over!

Especially now, the strength of the family can no longer be described as rampant, in their own territory, they seem to have become the emperor of the soil! The princes all know about this situation, but they can only turn a blind eye, after all, they also need the support of these families.

The best in this regard, I'm afraid it's Yuan Shao, their Yuan family is originally a big family, plus, Yuan Shao's posture is to continue to work for the benefit of the family, of course, those families are eager to support him, until now, Li Ru believes that at least Yuan Shao is not weaker than them on paper!

Looking at the princes of the world, Li Ru is sure that almost all of them are winning over the family and letting them support him, because this is the fastest way to rise!

The general trend of the world is like this, so Li Ru will be impressed by Sun Yang, who has embarked on a completely different path!

Although Li Ru was very frightened by Sun Yang's achievements, he was more disdainful, because he was the most orthodox Confucian scholar, and from the beginning of his education, he knew that although businessmen can create value, their threat is also great, and businessmen can do anything for the sake of profit, which is not conducive to rule! The businessmen he had met were basically like this!

Therefore, he looks down on businessmen and businessmen, and in his opinion, Sun Yang is completely sacrificing his roots by doing this! Although this can obtain huge benefits for a while, the hidden danger is also big enough, and the threat of the merchants' rise is even far greater than the threat of the family, because the merchants can shake the foundation of the rule and fool the people!

Sun Yang is still too young, too eager for quick success! Li Ru also felt a little pity in his heart, he saw Sun Yang's potential, and also saw his self-destruction, he knew that if Jiangdong continued like this, the scenery would not be in a few years, and there would be chaos!

However, it's okay like this, this kind of Sun Yang is what he really values! Although they said that they wanted to find someone who could contain the south for them, of course, they couldn't lift a stone and shoot themselves in the foot, now it seems that Sun Yang is undoubtedly the most suitable person, he is young and courageous, but his shortcomings are also obvious!
