In the evening, while several townsmen were anxiously waiting, Li Tai finally returned to Fucheng from the north bank of Weishui, naturally followed by the dejected Lu father and son.

"You guys, let's leave the hall for now, and then come to visit after I finish dealing with the eucalyptus accumulation."

Li Tai first left them some time to communicate with each other, then raised his hand and pointed to the Lu father and son behind him and said to everyone.

After hearing this, several people hurriedly nodded yes, and repeatedly thanked Li Tai, and then went to the other hall under the guidance of the state officials.

Li Tai returned to the state capital and sat down, first listened to Huangfu Mu concisely report on today's affairs, and after making sure that there were no difficulties or omissions, he then instructed: "Summarize and calculate the shortages of all military supplies and miscellaneous items, and make a book." ”

When Li Tai was still reviewing and reviewing a few more important documents, the relevant accounting books were put on the table. This is already the focus of state administration in the near future, and new data will be updated every day, so a result will be available soon.

Li Tai took the book and browsed it, and then he knew in his heart, seeing that it was not early, and after arranging the night duty personnel, he went to the other hall where the townsmen were located.

In the other hall, several Haoqiang first questioned the Lu family and his son in detail about the abduction of Li Xian. Lu Fuhu did not hide this, and also exaggerated the ability and strength of Li Xian's trilogy a little, and slightly demonstrated the embarrassment of being controlled by others.

After listening to Lu Fuhu's story, the expressions of several people present were not very good-looking, and they hurriedly asked: "Did the Duke of Xia Feng clearly say that what angered him and let him commit such an atrocity under his anger?" ”

Lu Fuhu sighed after hearing this, and one of his sons said with some heart: "Xia Fenggong said that the former promised Li Changshi's plan, and he was already forgiving for the sake of the hometown. But when it comes to acting, but it violates the previous plan, how can people believe that they can keep their promises for a long time? Therefore, therefore, ......"

Several people looked a little unsightly after hearing this, they excluded the state capital mostly because they followed Lu Fuhu's advice, not because they were greedy for gold minerals, but they planned to control the nostalgia, but they didn't expect it to collapse at the beginning, and they couldn't take advantage of it to control the two clans, but they caused a commotion.

"Since Xia Fenggong is willing to release General Lu back, then this matter is over?"

Some people said with fantasies, and in their hearts they didn't want to continue to entangle with Li Xian, an inbound strong dragon, after all, it was not a major event related to the rise and fall of the clan industry and the survival of the family.

When Lu Fuhu heard this, he shook his head, his expression was faintly angry, and he said in a deep voice: "I don't know what he thinks about there, but Li Xianhe is really too deceitful this time!" It's my family who is in trouble today, but you and all of you here are not safe. In order to prevent such persecution and humiliation again, it is necessary to be more prepared. Now the Duke of Hanoi is not in the state, Li Changshi is a young man, and I am afraid that he will not be able to shelter the people of the state, so we still need to ......."

This time the incident was really a disaster for Lu Fuhu, after getting out in a panic, he couldn't swallow this breath in his heart, and on the way back, he was already thinking about how to persuade his relatives and friends in the state to fight against Li Xian. Of course, his family is not Li Xian's opponent, but if several families can join forces, although Li Xian is a transit strong dragon, he will have to walk around without eating!

But he didn't know that under Li Tai's intimidation before, several people had already directly rejected the option of armed confrontation. Seeing that Li Tai understood Lu Fuhu's family as soon as he traveled, it can be seen that Li Xian is not arrogant and cannot be negotiable, since the matter can be resolved peacefully, there is no need to use force.

So when they heard Lu Fuhu's proposal, everyone just laughed, anyway, it was your family who suffered the humiliation, and you took the initiative to provoke this trouble, and everyone really couldn't afford to share the same hatred with you.

Lu Fuhu is an old man in the township who has gone through vicissitudes, and most of the time he can see through the thoughts of the villagers at a glance. At this time, seeing that everyone was quite cold about his proposals, even if he realized that they must have reached some kind of consensus, they may even have a tacit understanding to sacrifice their own interests to solve the incident if necessary.

Thinking of this, he secretly felt that something was wrong in his heart, and when he stood up and said to his sons, "Let's go!" ”

When several people saw that his father and son were about to leave, they also raised their hands in person and raised their hands to stop them a little: "Li Changshi hasn't come here yet, this time because of his appearance, General Lu and the others can get out of trouble, if they don't say goodbye, it will be too rude." ”

Seeing this, Lu Fuhu snorted coldly, and had no choice but to sit down again.

After another half an hour, Li Tai was late, and as soon as he walked into the hall, he noticed that the atmosphere was a little depressing, and it seemed that he had collapsed a little, and his heart was suddenly happy.

At any time, if there is harmony and happiness in the township, it is not a good phenomenon, and there are no contradictions, disputes, and conflicts of interest that need to be reconciled by external forces, so there is no way to intervene in it. Only by making you make trouble and rolling up, can I say justice for you!

Since the atmosphere was already a little bad, Li Tai didn't mind adding another fire, and after sitting down, he lowered his face and reprimanded Lu Fuhu again: "General Lu is a well-known village sage and elder who is deeply respected by the masses, so I have no doubt about you and entrust you with this matter." As a result, you acted recklessly, resented others and provoked revenge, and asked me to come forward to be considerate, I knew that why should I be superstitious about the virtue and righteousness of the township, and send a member of the government to not have such twists and turns! ”

The father and son of the Lu family were all ashamed when they heard this, and one of the sons even glared at Li Tai angrily and said: "This matter is not my family's private matter, and Ayeta is willing to accept it, and it is also for the sake of the township." Even if things occasionally go wrong, shouldn't we first ask the planner if he has a good idea? ”

"Shut up! This matter has been discussed by the masses in the township, and it is not allowed to be blamed wildly! Li Changshi risked his life and entered the human formation, leading your father and son back, it is not different from the grace of saving lives, the great grace has not been reciprocated, and he actually reprimanded Engong first, how can this be reasonable! ”

Before Li Tai could respond, a townsman present had already slapped his head and pointed at the son of the Lu family and said angrily.

After Lu Fuhu heard this, he immediately ordered his son to kneel down and apologize to Li Tai with a gloomy face, and at the same time he also bowed his head and said that his godson was not good.

Thinking about the time ago when he was crossing the horse ditch, this old man also took the posture of a township sage representative and opinion leader, and communicated with Li Tai without humility or arrogance. But now, it is the father and son who need to bow their heads to Li Tai and admit their mistakes.

Li Tai didn't care about this offense to a great extent, waved his hand and motioned for everyone to take their seats, and then sighed again: "As long as you can save people and don't have any more disputes, it doesn't matter whether you repay your kindness or not." But the matter has not been completely resolved so far, and Xia Fenggong put forward a few conditions, and you can listen to them. ”

As he spoke, he explained a few requirements to the people, such as the families taking turns to go out to fight and produce the mineral deposits as soon as possible, and before the minerals were realized, they would advance the materials for the relief of the two families, and so on.

For Li Tai, this is the level of a slap and a slight punishment, and he hasn't really cut them down, if they still have any objections to this, they are really a little illiterate.

But the position of people is different after all, these people were just a help, but they didn't expect it to become a real burden on their shoulders in a blink of an eye, and there is no profit at all, and they can't even get a thank you, after all, this is a result of people pinching their necks and persecuting, and their hearts are somewhat resistant.

Li Tai did not blindly intimidate and persecute them, but talked about the state government's plan to give priority to recruiting a group of villagers to carry out trade routes after pacifying Liangzhou. Merchants who are not approved by the state government will not be protected and may even be punished.

As soon as these words came out, several people present all showed surprise on their faces, including the Na Lu father and son, who temporarily put aside the sense of humiliation in their hearts and showed great interest in it.

There are indeed a lot of strong and strong in Longyou, but the strong may not be rich, and some local forces even simply get together to make a living because of poverty, and the output of farming and animal husbandry may barely maintain food and clothing, but there is no considerable surplus, so the expectations for commerce and trade are still great, but the previous situation environment is not suitable for the development of commerce and trade.

Although Li Tai did not put forward a clear request, everyone is an adult, and they should understand what the rules of adults are, and it is convenient for others to be convenient for themselves, so they all said again and again that there is no problem with the past, and they will bear the consumption of all the characters.

Only then did Li Tai put forward further conditions, putting a list of some of the shortages of military supplies in front of several people, and carefully explaining to them the conditions for borrowing military funds in exchange for trade qualifications, and saying that if they were interested in joining, they should prepare as soon as possible.

Because of this kind of selection, it is not only necessary to test the assets and financial resources of the powerful people, but also to test their recognition of the rule of Xingtai. Only with considerable financial resources can we carry out large-scale commercial transactions, so that the scale of east-west trade can be restored as soon as possible. At the same time, only those who are loyal to the imperial court and the state capital are eligible to share in the dividends brought by this war.

Therefore, such an opportunity is also first-come, first-served, first-served, first-served, and if you miss this opportunity, you will regret it!

After hearing this, several people suddenly became even more anxious, and it was too late to bargain a little, but after remembering clearly the types and quantities of materials that the state capital needed to borrow, they were busy and got up to say goodbye, and no longer worried about whether they would continue to be kidnapped and held hostage by Li Xian, so they rushed to their homes with a roar, intending to preemptively lock in a place.
