Under the incredulous gaze of the Chen family, Yuan Jian boarded Yuan Yao's carriage and drove away, leaving only two shallow traces after the wheels were crushed.

Taishou House.

Since they are all in the Yuan family, Yuan Yin also showed great enthusiasm for Yuan Lian, and did not reject him because he was the Yuan family of Chen County.

Liu Ji's purpose in recruiting Yuan Jian is also very simple, that is, the specific executor, relying on his identity as a member of the Yuan clan to register the population and measure the land.

At this time, the population was not as simple as in later generations, not only the hidden slaves of the great families, but also the refugees who were exiled by the war, plus the bandits and robbers everywhere, the population count was very difficult.

These situations also exist in the measurement of land, but it is mainly the fields held by the family, among which the largest family in Jiujiang County is the Yuan family itself.

The Runan Yuan clan has taken root here for many years, not only has many hidden slaves, but most of the land in their hands is some fertile and fertile land.

But it is precisely because of the great business of the Yuan family that these clansmen rely on the prestige of the Yuan family to conceal the land and population, and no one dares to take care of it.

Yuan Jian is a person with real talent and learning, and he is also resolute in doing things, just a few days after taking office, he directly found Yuan Yao's mansion.

"Childe, I want to borrow someone from you!" Yuan Jian said straight to the point.

Yuan Yin had vaguely informed Yuan Jian that his appointment was actually arranged by Yuan Yao, and through Yuan Yin's conversation, Yuan Jian came to a bold conclusion that Yuan Yao was the real master of Jiujiang County.

With this conclusion, Yuan Jian simply visited Yuan Yao, who was practicing at home.

"Borrowing whom?" Even if Yuan Yao was stunned by Yuan Yao's straightforwardness, he was still very kind.

"Captain Jiujiang, Chang Nu!" Looking at Yuan Yao, Yuan Lian didn't drag the slightest bit of mud and water, it was just like instant noodles.

"Why?" Yuan Yao looked at Yuan Jian suspiciously.

Since crossing into this world, Yuan Yao is the most bookish person Yuan Yao has seen except for Liu Ji, the two are not far apart, and Yuan Yao can feel a positive air flowing invisibly from him.

And this guy speaks very straight, has a bit of a straight man of steel, and is not afraid of offending people.

"Childe, please look! This is an official document of Jiujiang County when it was under the rule of Zhou Ang. Yuan Jian took out a ball of bamboo slips from his arms and put it in front of Yuan Yao.

Yuan Yao didn't know that just now, he had been slightly calculated by Yuan Yao for a while.

When Yuan Jian mentioned borrowing Chang Nu, he specially used the term Duwei of Jiujiang County, which is an official title of the local military rank, and his status is slightly lower than that of Taishou.

Borrowing the Jiujiang Governor Chang Nu, it stands to reason that Yuan Jian should go to Jiujiang Taishou Yuan Yin, but he ran to ask Yuan Yao what he meant, and Yuan Yao, who was unaware, did not point out that there was something wrong, but took it for granted.

This further confirmed the conjecture in Yuan Lian's heart, it seems that Yuan Yaoguo is really the master of Jiujiang County.

At this moment, Yuan Yao didn't notice that he had invisibly exposed the identity of the big guy, and he was frowning and looking at the official document on the bamboo slip.

The words on the bamboo slips are not easy to recognize, and the whole text is written in ancient Chinese, Yuan Yao is like reading a book from heaven, he can't understand the meaning at all, so he can only tilt his head and frown.

"Childe, it seems that you didn't expect that things would be so serious, right?"

"The population statistics of the entire Jiujiang County are insufficient, nearly half of the land is seriously deserted, and the people who are really short of food and clothing have no land to cultivate."

"In the long run, there will be more and more displaced people in the entire Jiujiang County, and the people will also fall into turmoil because they don't have enough to eat."

"This will not only reduce the prestige of the prince, but also cause immeasurable losses to the prince!"

"If Childe wants to settle this matter once and for all, he must have a heavy hand and forcibly record the land and population by forceful means!"

"The subordinate officials are weak and weak, and I need Captain Changnu to act with me. The most important thing is that Childe has to give me the right to arbitrarily act on the spot! ”

Yuan Jian saw Yuan Yao's brows furrowed, thinking that Yuan Yao was also distressed by the current situation of Jiujiang County, and while nodding secretly in his heart, he simply added another fire, telling all the current ills.

Yuan Lian's way is simple and rude, not only does he plan to attack the Yuan family directly, but he also forcibly masturbates!

Glancing at Yuan Lian, who was sincere and resolute, Yuan Yao fell into deep thought.

That's right, but can Yuan move?

After all, is it really so important to count the population and measure the land?

Yuan Yao, who was a small common man in his previous life, suddenly felt tired of managing the government affairs of one party, and it was better to fight on the battlefield.

Whether this Yuan Jian is a capable minister or not, Yuan Yao doesn't have any impression in his mind, but this is the first time that Liu Ji has recommended a talent to him, if he has no talent, Yuan Yao himself is a little unconvinced.

After all, it is a talent who has been checked by Liu Ji, even if he is not famous in history, he should have two brushes.

Let yourself do it to your own family, and it's still the kind that will be wiped out!

This wave of Yuan Lian's operation is heartbreaking!

In fact, Yuan Yao didn't know that when Yuan Shu occupied Huainan in history, it was precisely because there was no sanction against these Yuan clansmen that a vicious circle gradually formed.

The peasant households could not find the land, so they could only turn into displaced people, and the Yuan clan refused to give up the surplus land for farming, coupled with the entry of refugees from other places, resulting in more and more displaced people in Huainan not doing their jobs, and there were starving rotten bones everywhere.

This is also one of the reasons for the final defeat of the Yuan family.

When he was uncertain, Yuan Yao looked up and saw a figure standing quietly not far from the courtyard, it was Liu Ji with an indifferent face.

"Berwyn, you've come at the right time!" Yuan Yao hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Liu Ji, and told Liu Ji about Yuan Ji's words.

Liu Ji first listened quietly, first smiled lightly, and then said slowly: "The Runan Yuan family is not exactly the Yuan family of the lord, but the lord is the Runan Yuan family. ”

"What do you mean?" Hearing Liu Ji's words, Yuan Yao said that he didn't understand.

And Yuan Lian, who was sitting on the side, heard Liu Ji's answer, but his eyes flashed, and he stared at Liu Ji carefully.

"It seems that the subordinates did not express it clearly, so in other words, the Runan Yuan clan does not belong to the lord, but Jiujiang County is a territory that the lord can control."

"Just in Jiujiang alone, which is more important than the Jiujiang County and the Runan Yuan clan for the lord?"

Liu Ji casually changed his words, and clearly expressed the relationship between the two.

"I see." After Liu Ji said this, Yuan Yao suddenly realized.

"My lord, but even so, we can't do too much to the Yuan family, so our subordinates have a compromise plan for reference." Seeing that Yuan Yao already had an idea, Liu Ji spoke again.

"Berwyn, please!" Yuan Yao stretched out his hand to signal.

"In fact, it's not a clever strategy, it's nothing more than co-opting, dividing, and suppressing!" After Liu Ji finished speaking, he spoke specifically in Yuan Yao's ear.

Yuan Jian on the side widened his eyes, looked at Liu Ji who was talking solemnly, and a chill rose in his heart for no reason.

Yuan Jian silently gave Liu Ji a label in his heart that he couldn't be offended: This is a hater!
