The so-called hidden fields are just a general statement, and the specific means of operation can be described as eight immortals crossing the sea in a variety of ways, on which the landlords are often hollowing out their minds -

For example, a person of merit has some privileges of exemption from servitude, so he illegally accepts excess land contributions, so as to evade servitude; Another example is when buying and selling land, colluding with the government officials to reduce the area of the land deed, and the original purchase and sale of ten acres was only written on the land deed of five acres;

There are also those who pretend to entrust the land to the name of a certain extinct household, and then try to cancel the household registration of the extinct household, and then the land will "disappear" from the official register; As for forcibly occupying land and then not filing and registering it with the government, that is the last practice that can not be put on the table.

In the Jiangnan area, where heavy taxes are levied, many large landowners are inevitably affected by this problem. At least none of the nine families sitting in the lobby of the Han family at the moment dare to say that they are completely innocent.

Han Xiong Han saw that he had taken a lot of effort, and gradually persuaded his relatives and friends to be the head of the family, and he was secretly relieved in his heart, if they all supported him, then how bold would they be.

Otherwise, if the Han family rebelled against the minister alone, the head snake would not dare to say that he would definitely fail to cross the river, but the risk was very large, and the consequences of failure were also very serious.

Therefore, after Master Han learned that the minister planned to attack the Han family, his first thought was to bring together his relatives and friends to reduce the risk.

At this time, a steward hurriedly went up to the lobby and reported to Han Xiongyu: "Master! According to the clansmen's report, there were some strangers around Zhuangzi today, and they didn't see anything to do, just wandering around. When I see someone, I will inquire about the news of my Han family! ”

Han Xiong patted the case and said: "As expected, it really came!" This must be Lord Qin's dispatch to spy on the situation! ”

If only eighty percent of the people present had believed. Then now it's ten, it turns out that Han Xiong is not alarmist. The minister really wants to do it!

The Xu family, who had doubts before, immediately asked, "The matter has come to this, I don't know what Brother Han has planned?" Tell us about it! ”

Han Xiong was waiting for this time, so he took a few sips of tea and talked eloquently: "After I have thought about it again and again, it is not appropriate to have a hard fight with Qin Cha at the moment, and there is no need for this. As the so-called army is plotting, it is the best policy to surrender the army without a fight.

Although Fang Qincha's methods are ruthless, he may not be familiar with the world, and his ideas are bluffing, so he can just retreat in the face of difficulties. I would like to start with public opinion. It's enough to have a three-plate axe down!

First of all, spread the news that the minister of the Qin mission was going to deal with my Han family, so that everyone in the city would know about this matter and understand the ins and outs.

Secondly, there are a total of nine families here, and they must speak with one voice and express something, and they must do something to show others, so that others can know that we are advancing and retreating together!

There are such facts laid out, I don't believe that Fang Qincha will not weigh it repeatedly and think twice. A family may be easy to clean up. But when the nine families are combined, who dares to do it with confidence? Especially for a woman, is it worth it?

Third, we will make people speak. It is necessary to publicize the difficulty of clearing the land, and in turn to increase the confidence of other large households. At the same time, Fang Qincha thoroughly understood how big the resistance was, and it was not a shameless way to take the initiative to retreat in the face of difficulties. ”

When everyone heard this, they applauded. "Brother Han's method is very good, and it is quite subtle but not revealing. That's the best policy! ”

When the decision was made, the crowd dispersed. Then he acted intensively according to Master Han's arrangement.

In one day, the minister of the Qin mission intended to clean up the fields, and the news that he planned to take the Han family outside the Pingmen to open the knife spread throughout the city. Of course, Han Xiong's side did not publicize that the minister of the Qin Mission took the Han family because of women, which was a bit of a slap in the face, which did not conform to the original intention of implicit but not revealed.

Then another day later, nine large landowners, including the Han family, held a public meeting at Wangjiang Tower, which was located in the important traffic area outside the Changmen.

The landlords exchanged dozens of acres of land with each other and agreed to jointly build a dam and ditches on their land for flood control and irrigation.

When it was rumored that the Han family was going to be cut by the minister, the nine landlords publicly performed such a play, even fools knew that there was a deep meaning in saying goodbye! This is tantamount to telling others that the nine of them are in the same spirit, advancing and retreating together, and engaging in one is equivalent to building a nest.

So far, neither the minister nor the Han family, who has been targeted, seems to have taken any actual action. However, this air-to-air public opinion still created a tense atmosphere and aroused great concern among the locals.

Around the issue of clearing the fields, under the propaganda of well-intentioned people, public opinion does not seem to be very optimistic about Fang Qincha, because this matter is too difficult!

Judging from the old example, there are many officials who have done this, but they have not reaped all the credit, and even many of them have lost Maicheng.

Judging from the reality, the big landlords are deeply rooted in the local area, and the officials are all outsiders, so how can they really understand the land issue?

Not to mention anything else, it is necessary to rely on the officials to measure and count the land, and the officials are easily bought by the landlords. Moreover, the officials still have to make a living in the local area, so there is no need to offend the local tyrants in this kind of thing.

Not to mention that Fang Qincha can probably only make it to the end of the year, and he will leave in a few months, how can he have time to carefully implement the affairs of Qingtian?

In fact, there are still many poor households or poor people who support Lord Qincha's measures in their hearts, but in the face of an official who is ready to leave at any time, even if other local people are resentful of the local tyrants for occupying land and passing on taxes, how can they show their sincerity to help Fang Qincha? Aren't you afraid of being settled by the local tyrants?

After this analysis, anyone with a little IQ has little confidence in the other party, and has the idea of supporting it in vain.

But the other landlords who had ghosts in their hearts were a lot more relieved, and felt that Fang Qincha really couldn't do this, so they didn't have to worry too much. What's more, there are big families such as the Han family in front, they just have to follow behind and wave their flags and shout.

When everyone has no confidence in you, then no one is reliable So Han Xiong's goal was all achieved, and it was completed very smoothly, and it was effortlessly made the minister of the Qin Mission fall into the passivity of public opinion!

However, this kind of passivity is only brought by speculation and inference, and Lord Qincha has not made any actual moves, nor has he really made a move, so there is enough room for maneuver - in the eyes of Master Han, this room for maneuver is what he deliberately left for Fang Qincha.

As long as Lord Qincha has a little enlightenment, he should understand the truth of retreating, then it is better to be able to save face than to suffer setbacks after making a move, and it can be called a great joy for all.

As an official who can get mixed with the Qincha at a young age, he may be reckless and hot-blooded, but he must not be an extremely pedantic and stunned person. In the face of such obvious gains and losses, it is impossible to make a choice to make. (To be continued......)
