The wealthy landlords near Jinyang first watched a big chop off of heads for free, then they were politely beaten by Wei Qiswen, and then they were escorted back to their homes by the soldiers of the Tiance Army. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

While they were still in shock at home, the news of Tiance General Lü Bu's victory over Xianbei in Jiuyuan County, north of the Yellow River, came from Xihe, making these landlords and rich people accept the silent shock again.

It is indeed a very dangerous thing to reason with the Tiance Army with a steel knife in his hand. Looking at the fate of the Sun family, you can see how insidious Lu Bu is. It is necessary not only to seize the family property of the Sun family, but also to seize the official position of the Sun family, and finally to use the method of public trial to completely crucify the Sun family, so that it has no chance to turn over at all.

Nowadays, the common people in Taiyuan are singing the name of General Lu Bu, which family rebels in Bingzhou at this time, it is estimated that without the Tiance army, the nearby civilians can unite and kill him!

Since the road of rebellion has obviously become a self-defeating road, and these landlords and rich people do not want Wei Qi to come to the door with wolf-like guards to "visit", they can only follow the "clear road" pointed out by Wei Qi to carry out and implement it.

Returning the land that was originally annexed to the common people to the civilians, remedying the evil things that were originally done, and confiscating some land and property, although it will make these landlords and rich people feel painful, but they don't have to worry about being cut off their heads! The soldiers of the Tiance Army who cut off people's heads are really sharp with knives in their hands, and they won't even blink their brows.

Wei Qi's practice of vigorously rectifying the nearby landlords and tycoons in Jinyang with the help of the trial of the Sun family's extermination case spread to Xihe and Shangdang at the same time, and after Lu Bu received a detailed report, he had a new understanding of Wei Qi's ability.

Lü Bu gave Wei Qi the task of handling the Sun case with full authority, and did not ask Wei Qi to use this matter to deter the landlords and tycoons in Taiyuan, but Wei Qi did so in the hands of Lü Bu.

This is the same nature as Zhang Liao's help to Yang Feng in Hedong at that time. Lu Bu did not force Zhang Liao to help him get back 30,000 displaced people, but Zhang Liao fully grasped the opportunity and overfulfilled the task assigned by Lu Bu.

Originally, Lu Bu only thought that Wei Qi would become an authoritative talent in formulating laws, but now it seems that Wei Qi is actually a very capable internal affairs talent, and the law is only one aspect that he is good at.

Wei Qi saw that Lu Bu's plan was very big, so he knew what practical significance it was for Tiance Mansion to maintain the already sparse population of the state, and he showed the way to the landlords and rich people in Taiyuan, which was equivalent to saving tens of thousands of lives.

Originally, Lu Bu was not ready to attack the landlords and rich people in Taiyuan, but after Wei Qi's beating, Lu Bu didn't have to worry.

As long as these landlords and tycoons have a little longer brains, they have to honestly clamp their tails and behave at this time, do what Wei Qi asks, and return some of the benefits they originally seized to the common people of Taiyuan, so that the originally tense and antagonistic class contradictions have been alleviated to a certain extent.

In order to express his appreciation and support for Wei Qi, Lu Bu specially wrote a letter and sent someone to Jinyang to send it to Wei Qi.

Compared with the worries of the landlords and tycoons in Taiyuan County, the landlords and tycoons in Shangdang County have a better life.

So far, the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion and the Tiance Mansion have not touched officials at all levels in Shangdang County, and they have also adopted the method of observing and tolerating these landlords. However, the landlords and rich people of Shangdang were smarter than those of Taiyuan County, and they had suffered a big loss from the rampant "bandits" before, so they knew how dangerous the result of resisting the army was, so they pushed the Chen family to the front and let the Chen family coordinate with the Tiance Mansion to try to avoid conflicts similar to the Taiyuan Sun clan in Shangdang.

The Chen family is not stupid, rather than being used by the landlords and rich people of the Shangdang, it is better to simply take refuge in the Tiance Army, so as to at least minimize the danger of the Chen family, as for whether other families will follow, it has nothing to do with the Chen family.

Lu Bu's appointment of Chen Shi as Cangcao's military participation is to tell everyone unmistakably that the Chen family will be covered by me in the future! Lu Bu appointed Chen Shi's brother Chen Tao as the Sima of the other division of the Tiance Army, which was equivalent to handing a quick knife to the Chen family. Although Chen Tao's soldiers are still those people, everyone's identities have changed, and the banner has also changed, if anyone in the party dares to threaten the Chen family with force, Chen Tao can fight back under the banner of the Tiance Army.

What are the consequences of a confrontation with the Tiance Army, Taiyuan Sun has already given the answer.

After Chen Shi returned to Hyunshi County, he first sent people to drive ox carts to transport the grain stored in the warehouse to Xihe. Although 3,000 stone of grain is not a large number for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the entire Xihe, it can also postpone the problem of food shortage for a while.

Subsequently, Chen Shi organized all the laborers in the clan who could work in the field to take advantage of the good weather to harvest and dry all the autumn grains and incorporate them into the warehouse.

After doing this, Chen Shi sent people to the counties of Shangdang to summon the landlords and wealthy households in the county to discuss matters at home. At this time, the news that Wei Qi, the iron-faced judge on the east bank of Jinshui, had cut off forty-three heads, had spread throughout Bingzhou. All the landlords and tycoons sent people who could call the shots in the clan to the Chen family.

Chen Shi said to these people: "Everyone should have heard about the Sun family in Jinyang, and you have also seen our Chen family's convoy transporting grain to Xihe on the road, right?" ”

Everyone nodded.

Chen Shi continued: "The Sun family and our Chen family are actually the two best examples, and the confrontation with the Tiance Mansion is ultimately the end of the Sun family; The cooperation with Tiance Mansion is the result of our Chen family. I have personally met with General Tiance, who is open-minded and extraordinary, and is by no means a greedy martial artist. Although the world is becoming more and more chaotic now, it is definitely a deal that can ensure long-term peace and security by taking out the excess grain and selling it to the Tiance Army at a reasonable price! ”

"I won't say anything superfluous, anyone who is willing to sell grain to the Tiance Army, tell me the quantity and type of grain, I will record and make a record first, and then someone will go to the door to collect the grain, and then use other goods to compensate you, there will definitely be no trickery and plunder."

The patriarch of the Zhao family asked Chen Shi: "If we sell all the stored grain to the Tiance Army at a low price, when the year is bad in the coming year, will the Tiance Mansion take care of the food difficulties of the people in our clan?" ”

Chen Shi nodded and replied, "This question or worry of the Zhao family master must also be your worry. In this regard, General Tiance has a clear attitude. All the landlords and wealthy households who are willing to sell the surplus grain at a low price are good citizens and should be protected and cared for by the Tiance army. If there is a famine in the coming year, Tiance Mansion will not only no longer collect grain from various families, but will also find ways to transport grain from other states and counties and sell it to each family at a reasonable price to ensure that every family has food to eat and will not starve to death! ”

"Good! Since the general can treat us equally, the Zhao family is willing to take out the five thousand stone surplus grain stored in the cellar and sell it to the Tiance army at a low price! ”
