Chapter 51: Here's Your Chance
Ye family compound!
Ye Xiang, the head of the Ye family, convened the elders of the family in the bright hall. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Big brother!" A man in his forties spoke, and said to Ye Xiang: "Now that there are displaced people everywhere, it is the time for us to become bigger, if we can get thousands of people in one fell swoop, the Liu family will not be a problem!" ”
"Dick!" The third man with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks stood up, and objected without saying a word: "Second brother, it's useless for you to say this, although our Ye family is rich now, the expenses are also large, and the inheritance left to us by our ancestors is so little." Although the Liu family has the upper hand now, our group training has begun, and we are not inferior to him. You are thousands of people with one mouth, can you afford to raise them? ”
The Ye family has money and food, but it has been accumulated little by little by the ancestors, and it is not easy, if it raises thousands of people at once, it will definitely not be able to make ends meet, and the coffins left by the ancestors will be taken out.
"Third child, you, why do you want so much money and food? For example, if the chaos has appeared today, to gain a foothold in this troubled world, having soldiers in hand is fundamental, and no matter how much money you have, if you don't have the power to protect it, you will just be a fat sheep in the eyes of others. The second child was angry when he saw the third unproductive miser: "If we don't seize the opportunity, it will be too late when these homeless people are left in the mountains and fall into the grass!" ”
"Besides, if the Liu family takes the opportunity to annex these homeless people, it will be very bad for us!"
"Impossible!" Lao Sanyi waved his hand: "Everyone knows the details of the Liu family, although his family has an osmanthus soap business, but the background is far from enough, he now has three or four hundred regiments of soldiers in his hands, and there are three or four hundred children to feed, and today's business can barely support these is the limit, and he can't afford to raise more." ”
"Big brother, keep ...... when you break it"
"That's it!" Ye Xiang waved his hand, interrupted the argument between the two, and said, "What you two said makes sense. The second said that we should prevent the Liu family from becoming bigger and strengthen our own strength, and the third said that the money was not enough, which is all true, I think so. ”
The eldest Ye Xiang pondered for a while, then got up from his chair, "Gather those homeless people, select five hundred strong young ones to be used by our Ye family, and expel the rest from Fang County, out of sight and out of mind." In this way, we have the power to defend and solve the problem once and for all. ”
"Big brother, this method is inappropriate!"
"That's it!" Ye Xiang said: "Second brother, don't worry about it, we currently have 300 regiments of soldiers in our hands, plus there are as many as 800 of these 500 homeless people, and the Liu family is no longer a threat." ”
"Master, master!" A subordinate outside the door ran over and said, "Lord Liu of the county begs to see the master!" ”
"Oh?" Ye Xiang squinted his eyes and waved his hand: "Please let him in, oh no, I'll go in person!" ”
Liu Xin entered the living room, and the rest of the people had already dispersed.
"Lord Liu, please take a seat!"
Ye Xiang respectfully and respectfully, and the people below re-delivered a pot of hot tea that had just been brewed.
Liu Xin is a serious person, in this world where scholars rule the world, he Ye Xiang can't help but be disrespectful, even if it's just on the surface.
"I won't drink the tea!" Liu Xin waved his hand and sat down, and said, "I won't be polite to you who is in charge of Ye Da, let's get straight to the point." ”
"Ye listened."
"Good!" Liu Xin nodded and said, "Now you have also seen the situation in Fang County, the displaced people are everywhere, and the people are not living. Your Ye family has always been the largest clan in Fang County, and now that you have held a group exercise, I wonder if Mr. Ye can find a way to resettle these victims? ”
"Placement?" Ye Xiang showed an embarrassed face, but looking at Liu Xin's face full of hope, he pretended to be ruthless, and his facial muscles twitched, "Okay, since Lord Liu said so, I will reluctantly make it difficult, my Ye family can accommodate five hundred people, no more!" ”
"Five hundred?" Liu Xin sighed: "A drop in the bucket, Master Ye, can you ......"
"Lord Liu!" Ye Xiang stood up, his face was a little stiff, and said: "Ye is not the only big household in this Fang County, and now the placement of 500 people is the maximum I can bear, his Chen family, Yuan family, especially the Liu family, all of them are fat, can't they all be placed?" ”
Ye Xiang's attitude is obvious: You Lord Liu is here, I will give you face and place 500 people, but as the saying goes, there are difficulties together, you can't let me carry the beam alone, and those people!
"Ye Family Master ......"
"Lord Liu doesn't need to say much, my Ye family's ability is indeed limited!" Ye Xiang spread his hands, looked at Liu Xin's bitter melon-like face, and his heart suddenly blossomed: he can recruit five hundred elite soldiers, and he can have a good reputation, and he will gain both fame and fortune.
"Okay, then thank you to the Ye family master!"
Liu Xin sighed and came out of the Ye family, and walked towards Liu Yuanshan's house without stopping.
There is no way, the county lord never takes care of things, if he doesn't care about things anymore, the entire Fang County will soon be in chaos.
"Oops! Lord Liu, why do you have time to come to me! ”
Liu Yuanshan invited Liu Xin to the hall very enthusiastically, and also arranged for him to sit down on the main seat.
"Tea!" With a howl, someone immediately brought hot tea.
"Liu Gongzi!"
"Ahem!" Liu Yuanshan smiled all over his face, arched his hand at Liu Xin, and said, "Don't dare, don't dare, Lord Liu can call me Sanlang!" ”
"Huh!" The depression in Liu Xin's heart calmed down a little, and said: "It's okay, San Lang, I won't hide it, let's get straight to the point, the main purpose of my coming to you this time is to ask you to cooperate with the government to settle some refugees!" ”
"Ah......" Liu Yuanshan pretended to be surprised, then scratched his head and said, "Resettle those homeless people?" Didn't the adults go to the Ye family? Their family is the largest family in the local area, and this kind of thing is the smallest in that round. ”
"Alas......" Liu Xin thought it was no fun, sighed secretly, and said, "I found it, but the Ye family didn't want to." ”
"Those homeless people look really pitiful, it's just ......" Liu Yuanshan spread his hands: "If you say that you cooperate with the government, I will naturally do my best, if you say that I will be resettled all in one go, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult, my lord!" ”
Liu Xin just said that letting Liu Yuanshan cooperate, it was purely a swollen face and a fat man.
"This, ahem!" Liu Xin said again: "You also know the situation in the yamen, not to mention that there is no silver, even if there is a little silver in the county treasury, it is not enough to resettle so many displaced people, your Liu family's business is big, and there are many contacts, and you also need regimental soldiers, so you can't consider resettlement." ”
"A little?" Liu Yuanshan's eyes were shining.
"Uh, ahem!" Liu Xin smiled embarrassedly: "Naturally, the more the merrier, if San Lang you can settle the homeless people this time, Lord Huang will naturally be a great merit!" ”
"The more the merrier?" A smile appeared on the corner of Liu Yuanshan's mouth, and he keenly felt that the opportunity he had been waiting for had come!
