Chapter 395: Blowout Development (5)

After returning to Shihe, Liu Fan was awakened by a knock on the door before he could rest for a while. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Liu Fan reluctantly let go of his wife in his arms and said, "Is it Bing'er?" The door is not closed, come in! ā€

"Crunch" The door opened, Liu Bing'er appeared in front of Liu Fan, and said to the two of them, "I've seen Mrs. Ying, I've seen the Overseer!" ā€

Shuyingqiao's face flushed, and she glanced at Liu Fan with disgust, Lianbu stepped forward and grabbed Liu Bing'er affectionately, "Sister Bing'er, why are you so polite, we are all a family sooner or later, just call me sister!" ā€

Liu Bing'er secretly glanced at Liu Fan and saw that he had no objection, she was secretly happy in her heart, and hurriedly said, "Thank you, Sister Ying'er, I'm afraid that someone won't agree!" ā€

"Ahem!" Liu Fan touched his nose in embarrassment and said, "Ying'er, do you have anything to do with me?" ā€

Liu Bing'er's eyes were red, she couldn't bear the bitterness in her heart, and replied aggrievedly, "Overseer, just now someone came to report, Mr. Zhang Yupeng and Mr. Zhang asked to see him, and the concubine has already asked him to wait in the study."

"Yupeng?" Liu Fan was a little surprised in his heart, and hurriedly said to the two, "Ying'er, Bing'er, you talk first, I'll go to the study to see what's going on with Yupeng!" Without waiting for the two to answer, he hurriedly pushed the door and left.

Walking quickly to the study, Liu Fan pushed the door and saw that Zhang Yupeng was really pacing in the study with an anxious face. Seeing Liu Fan coming, Zhang Yupeng grabbed Liu Fan's hand violently, and said urgently: "Overseer, it can be regarded as waiting for you." Something happened in Laizhou! ā€

Liu Fan's free left hand pressed Zhang Yupeng's shoulder, and comforted him repeatedly, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll stand up when the sky falls!" Sit down and tell me what's wrong? ā€

Zhang Yupeng calmed down a little, sat on the chair and said hurriedly, "Overseer, something is really wrong in Laizhou. Since the Spring Festival, Laizhou has begun to be unstable. In the past two days, according to your orders, our civil administration and the peasant association have jointly carried out land redistribution, but we did not expect to be met with unprecedented obstacles at the beginning, and now even the people have begun to oppose us! ā€

"What?" Liu Fan couldn't believe it, "The people are against dividing the land? I heard you right! Liu Fan couldn't believe his ears, the policy of land reform ultimately benefited these landless ordinary people, the fields given for nothing, the good things of pie in the sky, they have no reason to refuse, right?

"You heard it right, it is!" Zhang Yupeng explained with an affirmative face: "Most of the people in Laizhou are now not allowed to let our people from the Ministry of Civil Affairs enter the village, and the land reform policy is basically at a standstill now!" ā€

Liu Fan's face was a little ugly when he heard this, and he said angrily, "What is the reason for this?" Do you know why? Who is manipulating in the shadows? What are the findings of the Military Intelligence Division? ā€

"Uh" Liu Fan's series of questions, Zhang Yupeng was a little confused. After a long while, Zhang Yupeng shouted, "That, Overseer, I don't know the specific reason. Ostensibly, it was the people who clashed with the peasant associations and the Ministry of Civil Affairs because of the uneven distribution of land. As for who is manipulating behind the scenes, I don't know, a few **** asked Zhao Bo a few times ago, and he said that he was investigating! ā€

"Damn!" Liu Fan couldn't help but scolded angrily, "You don't know what the reason is, what am I raising you for, and I still have the face to ask Lao Tzu for help!" Let me tell you Zhang Yupeng, Lao Tzu will give you ten days, and within ten days, you must solve this matter for me and find out who is behind the scenes. Otherwise, go home and pick up the baby! ā€

Zhang Yupeng knew that he was wrong, he lowered his head in shame and said nothing, Liu Fan handed over all the affairs of Laizhou to him, and in terms of real power, he was the nameless prefect of Laizhou. He was only in his early twenties, and he was one of the only two states and counties in the Broken Army, which shows how much Liu Fan trusted him. Now that there is such a big mistake, Zhang Yupeng feels that he can't escape the blame, so he can only honestly wait for Liu Fan to finish scolding.

Glaring at Zhang Yupeng fiercely, Liu Fan was furious and said, "In addition, tell Zhao Bo to let him personally sit in Laizhou and assist you in arresting the murderer." In addition, the governor of Song Ben gave you the right to transfer troops, and allowed you to mobilize the garrisons of Changyi and Weixian in case of emergency. The three of you must solve this matter in the shortest possible time, otherwise Lao Tzu will kill you all together! ā€

Although Liu Fan was still foul-mouthed, Zhang Yupeng obviously heard the concern from Liu Fan's mouth, otherwise Liu Fan would not have asked the Military Intelligence Department and Song Cheng's garrison to help. Zhang Yupeng was moved in his heart, and said with a trembling voice, "Overseer, you can rest assured that your subordinates will definitely calm down the incident in Laizhou in the shortest possible time, and will not delay your major affairs!" ā€

Liu Fan glared at Zhang Yupeng angrily, and said angrily, "It's better to be like this, otherwise don't blame Lao Tzu for turning his face and not recognizing people, let Lao Tzu go back to Laizhou, it's annoying to see you!" ā€

"Yes, the subordinates are retired!" Zhang Yupeng sighed helplessly

After Zhang Yupeng left, Liu Fan was still angry in his heart, and the good mood he had just reached an alliance with the Zheng family disappeared in an instant. After all, his team is still too young, and when he encounters a little problem, he panics and loses his senses. Although there is no problem with their loyalty, loyalty alone will not make a big deal. Liu Fan is now more in urgent need of a talent who can coordinate the overall situation.

Originally, Liu Fan was very optimistic about Mao Yuanyi, because this person was at the lowest point in his life, and according to the trend of history, this person would die depressed in another four or five years. Such a depressed talent should be easy to get his hands on, but his reputation is too bad, even if his strength is strong, he is also a "martial artist", which is very discriminated against in the eyes of orthodox literati like Mao Yuanyi. If he were a civil official, even if he was a governor like Zhu Dadian, I am afraid that as soon as he conquered Mao Yuanyi, he would only bring dry food and fart to come over.

Sometimes Liu Fan wants to travel to the end of the Han Dynasty, at least if he has the strength, he is not afraid that there will be no talents under his subordinates. Even a reckless man like Lu Bu has a talent like Chen Gong under his subordinates, and Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu give advice to him. But at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Liu Fan had obviously become a strong party, but there were still two or three big cats and kittens under his command, and these people were still cultivated by themselves, which was too hard.

With the current status of the Ming Dynasty, it is even inferior to the army composed of hooligans and criminals in the Song Dynasty. The literati of the Ming Dynasty held themselves in such high esteem that they had even detached themselves from their actual status as an isolated class. It would be better if it was placed in a peaceful and prosperous era, in this troubled era, if they continue to play like this, sooner or later they will collapse themselves.

The long-term dilemma of lack of talents has made Liu Fan's thinking change greatly. If you want to achieve a great cause in troubled times, you can't divorce yourself from reality. After all, the current Ming Dynasty is still the world of literati, and Liu Fan is also considering whether to compromise and lower his posture to win over a group of "royal" literati?
