Chapter 63: Cleanup
Three days later, the time came.
The nine families in this city still thought that their twelve families had joined forces and were about to dismount Zuo Houdra.
Unexpectedly, Zuo Houde used them to fish these days, dug out a lot of unstable factors in the city, and secretly sent people to monitor the nine families, when the time comes, Zuo Houde does not plan to let go of one person!
Zhengdong General's Mansion, Zuo Houde played with the clay figure in his hand and listened to Yao Ping's report by his side.
After Zuo Houde listened, he said leisurely: "Close the net!" ”
Yao Ping immediately received the order and led the army to capture the unstable Jiujia and the rest of the unstable people in the city.
Zuo Houde looked at Yao Ping's back, let out a long sigh, and said, "Greed is not enough to swallow an elephant!" ”
With Zuo Houde's order, I don't know how many bloody storms will rise in the city.
In fact, three days ago, even if Zuo Houde gave them the last chance, the power of these twelve families was really great, rooted in Dingcheng for a hundred years, and deeply rooted, so that Zuo Houde would be worried at any time that these twelve families would sell Zuo Houde when Zuo Houde was not in the city in the future!
In the view of Zuo Houde, who has the memory of two lifetimes, these twelve are already big capitalists, and for capitalists, capital must flow in order to generate sufficient benefits.
Zuo Houde is also a capitalist, but he is also a ruler, with the memory of his previous life, Zuo Houde naturally understands that once the capital in the hands of the capitalist flows, it will not only produce benefits, but also produce a powerful force, enough to drown the power of the ruling class.
Therefore, capital is not not not flowing, but must flow in the hands of Zuo Houde, so that Zuo Houde can use the power of this capital, and only when capital is in the hands of the ruling class is stable capital!
For any ruler, it is unacceptable for such an unstable factor to appear under his hands, just like "Zhu Yuanzhang killed Shen Wansan" in his previous life.
Of course, Zuo Houde has other purposes, the accumulation of these nine hundred years has been favored by Zuo Houde, and each Zuo Houde is estimated to be no less than 10 million taels, plus shops and land.
Just raiding the house is enough for Zuo Houde to raise soldiers for decades, how can Zuo Houde not be moved?
……
On July 7, it should be difficult for the people of Dingcheng to forget this day, this day was originally Qixi Festival, but Zuo Houde's order made the entire Dingcheng full of blood.
Thousands of people were dragged to the center of the city and beheaded, these are the descendants of the nine families, and Zuo Houde will definitely not let any of them go.
As for some people who did not have greater involvement, Zuo Houde was also merciful and spared their lives.
Of course, what made Zuo Houde most pleased was that there were only dozens of people involved in the army, and these dozens of people originally wanted to win over the rest of the people, but the rest of them denounced these dozens of people in the blink of an eye as soon as they heard about it.
After Zuo Houde found out, he was also quite happy, after all, no one wanted to be betrayed by the subordinates who had worked so hard to cultivate.
……
In the General's Mansion, Zuo Houde listened to Yao Ping's report on the harvest of this raid.
Yao Ping held the account book in his hand and meticulously reported to Zuo Houde: "Family master, we have copied out a total of 3.74 million taels of gold, 94.32 million taels of silver, plus a number of jewels, a total value of 157.83 million taels of silver, as for the rest of the real estate, shops, and land, they are not counted, and they are still being counted." ”
Hearing this huge number, Rao is Zuo Houde couldn't help but be taken aback, Zuo Houde raised the 200,000 troops under his command, and the annual cost was about 1.5 million taels, and this money could allow Zuo Houde to raise it for a hundred years!
Although Zuo Houde had already expected it in his heart, he didn't expect these nine families to be so rich.
Of course, Zuo Houde understands that real estate, shops, and land are the main ones, and generally speaking, especially in ancient times, most of the wealth of the rich is real estate, such as land, shops, etc.
So Zuo Houde immediately instructed Yao Ping: "Immediately count the shops and land, this is the big head, so that these few can have 500 million?" ”
Hearing Zuo Houde's words, Yao Ping nodded and said: "The head of the family, the land and shops, I only slightly estimated, it is two or three hundred million taels, especially the land of some villages around Dingcheng, almost all of them belong to these families." ”
Zuo Houde nodded, people's love for the land has always been like this.
However, Zuo Houde has obtained such a huge wealth, but he can develop his rule well, so I want to thank Zuo Houde for the dedication of these families.
Zuo Houde instructed again: "You arrange people to take over these nine shops, you continue to use those who can be used, and if you can't use them, recruit people, try to find the family members of the sergeants!" ”
Yao Ping clenched his fists and left.
When Yao Ping left, a middle-aged man came out of the back curtain, the man's face was plain, only these eyes were even sharp.
Zuo Houde looked at him and said lightly: "How has Yao Ping performed recently?" ”
The man clenched his fists and said, "Lord, Manager Yao has noticed the existence of the shadow guard, and these things have always been very regular!" ”
"I've been the manager by my side, it would be strange if Yao Ping couldn't detect your existence! Just follow the rules! Zuo Houde said lightly.
This man is the leader of the Shadowguard.
A few years ago, Zuo Houde excavated Ying from the army, Ying is a talent, although his face is ordinary, no one can pay attention to him in the crowd, and at the same time, Ying is thoughtful and never makes mistakes.
At that time, Zuo Houde was still forming his own private army, so he was very concerned about everything in the city, so he asked Yao Ping to recruit three sects and nine streams to listen to the news in the city.
Secretly Zuo Houde let the shadow and establish the shadow guard, Zuo Houde made this movie satellite TV his own "brocade guard", recruited people, organized secret agents, and all the high-level people in the city were surrounded by the existence of the shadow guard, and explored private information for Zuo Houde.
At the same time, Zuo Houde did not just put the shadow guard in the city, Zuo Houde's shadow guard gradually grew with the support of Zuo Houde, and cultivated a lot of secret agents, Zuo Houde's idea is that within ten years, the shadow guard should be all over the world, serving as Zuo Houde's eyes and ears.
Of course, this shadow guard is still a private unit, not known to outsiders, and is only responsible for Zuo Houde.
Zuo Houde looked at the shadow and said lightly: "Retreat, and immediately send more shadow guards to Jiangling, the Ming Dynasty is the enemy, we can't be blind in the south!" ”
Shadow clenched his fists and retreated.
This power is intoxicating, Zuo Houde has gradually become suspicious since he took power, and he has less trust in the people around him, of course, Zuo Houde understands that this is a necessary quality for every person in power, that is, Cao Cao does not return and says: "I kill people in my dream!" ”
