At the same time, another gate in the city came from Zhao, Li, Qian, and Fei from Yuzhang County, and several wealthy families and family heads from Gu and Lu from Wu County, and walked towards a restaurant.

"Brother Lu"

"Brother Gu"

"Brother Fei"

In one room, everyone greeted each other, and the scene seemed a little lively. There is no doubt that the people gathered here are all wealthy families who are close to Jia Nian, on the contrary, the Wu family and other wealthy families have a lot of resistance to this. No matter what happens, in the vast majority of cases there will be vested interests and losers.

Yuzhang Qianshu and Fei Heng were the first wealthy families to take refuge in Jia Nian, and later saw that the power of bonds was huge, and the two wealthy families of Zhao and Li also took refuge one after another. After Er occupied the three counties of Huiji, Wu County and Danyang, the Gu and Lu clans naturally joined in by virtue of their relationship with the Jia clan in Anhui County. Now that you have calculated carefully, you have a lot of power under your command.

It is precisely because of the existence of this force that the Wu family and other wealthy families have been suppressed, otherwise the land of the three counties would have been in flames at this time.

"Why did Taishou suddenly summon me and others unusually?"

"I don't know"

Everyone in the room shook their heads.

I didn't hear any news about this beforehand, and it came very suddenly. Just like when Guo Junshi led the Shanyue soldiers to leave by boat, when they set off, they only thought it was just an ordinary change of defense. But after half a month, I found out that they had actually gone to sea.

What is even more surprising is that I don't know the goal and route of this army.

However, the soldiers of Shanyue are self-contained, and their tentacles can't reach into it at all. In addition, it is too strict to keep it secret, so it is normal not to hear the slightest rumor.

"Brother Lu, Brother Gu, don't you know?"

"I don't know"

The two middle-aged men glanced at each other and slowly shook their heads at everyone. If you know why, why waste time here.

Fei Zhen couldn't help frowning, and a tricky feeling appeared in his eyes.

"Could it be that something has happened in Jiangbei? Otherwise, why would Taishou summon us with uncharacteristic fanfare? ”

"Shouldn't be"

Qian Shu shook his head slowly.

His eyes looked around the crowd and spoke to them.

"If there is an accident in Jiangbei, Taishou will definitely order the Yuzhang County Government, and it is impossible for us not to hear the news."

"And why is that? Summoning the wealthy families of the Jiangnan family, there is no big move"

"Could it be that there is something going on in Jiaozhou and Xuzhou? The soldiers and horses of the two states want to flank the four counties south of the Yangtze River."

"Yuan Jiujiang doesn't move, do they dare to move? Qingzhou yellow scarves are raging, and Xuzhou is too busy to take care of itself. As for Jiaozhou, it is even more at war with Jingzhou, how can it make enemies on both sides?"

"Then there is only one possibility, something happened to Guo Junshi"

The voice fell in their ears, and everyone was stunned for a moment, could it be that Guo Dapang had made something big again? Calculating the time, this fat man also led the soldiers of Shanyue to leave for a month, and maybe something big will happen in this month.

"What big thing can happen in the vast sea?"

"I can't figure out why Taishou suddenly divided his troops to go to sea at this time, and now the three counties in the south of the Yangtze River are newly attached, and the situation in Jiangbei is changing. It was when it was necessary to garrison heavily and the troops were not enough, so they divided the troops."

"Strange and weird"

One person sighed at Qian Shu and others.

Everyone frowned, unable to figure out what the meaning of this move was.

"Do you think Taishou will learn from Liu Jingzhou?"

"Smugglers?"

"Now that Shanyue has been attached, bandits and water bandits are also being surrounded and suppressed by the generals under the command of Taishou. Moreover, the treasury of Yuzhang was opened to replenish the soldiers and horses of various armies, totaling more than 30,000 people. In other words, in a short period of time, Taishou has recruited more than 10,000 people in the four counties. If we can collect the soldiers of our wealthy families, won't the army reach 50,000 people? Relying on the natural risk of the Yangtze River, we should not be afraid of Yuan Jiujiang and Xu and Jiaozhou"

"This?"

Everyone in the room hesitated, thinking about this possibility.

Qian Shu suddenly laughed.

"We have to train private soldiers as a last resort, if Taishou wants it, even if it is given to Taishou? Can we still be arrogant and think that we can occupy the land south of the Yangtze River with only a few hundred private soldiers in the palace? ”

"What Brother Qian said is reasonable"

"In Reason"

All the people came to their senses.

Not to mention that he and others are supporters, even if they are not, when facing Jia Taishou, who occupies the four counties of Jiangnan with the power of a great victory, he can only choose to obey the order. Just like Qian Shu said, can you still expect these hundreds of soldiers to be able to enter the Taishou Mansion? It must be known that the 30,000-strong army stationed in various places is not a showmanship.

If you are carefully calculating an account, it is not cost-effective to raise private soldiers, but people have to do it in troubled times. After all, not everyone likes to compete for hegemony, as long as they hold their own one-third of an acre of land and live a peaceful and stable life.

Sending soldiers to the family is a favor, can it be that Taishou can still treat himself badly, and it will not be able to chill the hearts of everyone?

After figuring these things out, the people in the room breathed a sigh of relief. The worst is acceptable, then as for the rest, there is nothing that is not acceptable. What's more, there are many families in the south of the Yangtze River, and those people in the Wu family will definitely be unwilling, and if Taishou wants to collect private soldiers, he is afraid that he will have to go a long way.

"It's not beneficial for you to speculate too much, it's better to wait for three days to gather in the Taishou Mansion, and it will naturally be clear at a glance."

"Yes"

Everyone nodded.

Fei Zhen smiled and said to everyone.

"It's a bit inappropriate to gather here for too long, after all, I heard that Jianye is prosperous and now that I'm here, why don't I go shopping with you?"

"A month ago, Taishou mobilized skilled craftsmen from the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River to build a bronze bird platform. Although we can't go up and take a look, it's a good thing to see it from a distance."

Hearing this proposal, everyone's spirits couldn't help but be shocked.

Since he has fully supported Jia Taishou, he will support Taishou no matter what decision Taishou makes, and it is unfounded to worry about some messy things.

"Let's go, everyone, I'll wait for a rare get-together, and I'll go to the Tongque Terrace today to take a look from afar."

"That's right, let's take a look"

Everyone agreed, followed Fei Zhen and Qian Shu and turned around and walked outside the house.

The two middle-aged men glanced at each other and turned over.

When he walked to the door, he looked at the servant who had been waiting for a long time, and asked in a low voice.

"Have you ever found out where Sun'er is?"

"Academy"

"Did the head of the house go over and take a look?"

The two servants spoke to the man.

The man shook his head slowly.

"No more"

"The relationship between Xun'er and Jia Taishou will definitely be fine, and now it's better to deal with the things in front of you."

"Closely inquire into the situation of the Wu family, the Zhang family, the Zhu family and others, although the Taishou will be prepared, but we also need to be careful"

"No"

The two men bowed, turned and strode away.

Looking at the departing back, the other person looked puzzled.

"Brother Lu thinks they will do something unpleasant?"

"Be careful, let's go see Tongquetai"

"Yes"

The man answered, and followed with a step.

There is no doubt that from now on, the water in Jiangnan will begin to become muddy, and if Taishou insists on forcibly seizing the private soldiers, we have no opinion. But it can't stand the counterattack of other major families, and it will inevitably be a big mess at that time. I can only hope that Taishou did not summon us to wait for this matter, otherwise he would have to choose another master.
