Chapter 186: Reactions from all sides
Qinnan Road.
The Meng family.
In the meeting hall, Meng Tianfang sat on the main seat, and below Meng Tianfang, the elders of the Meng family were sitting.
It's just that among these elders, they didn't see the shadow of Meng Jingu, after all, now Meng Jingu is under Yang Lin's command, so naturally he will not appear in Meng's house.
"Now Your Majesty is implementing a new system! Inventory the land of the world, abolish the old currency ......, I think all the elders already know! Meng Tianfang's gaze swept over the elders.
After hearing Meng Tianfang's words, many elders lowered their heads one after another.
"This seat, I have gathered all the elders today for this purpose!"
"Now that my Meng family and Dashang are both prosperous and lossy, I can hope that there will be any people in our Meng family who disobey His Majesty's will!" Meng Tianfang's eyes showed a cold look.
Meng Tianfang also clearly knew that Yang Guang's will really infringed on the interests of the Meng family, just like the collection of private soldiers in the first place.
But now that his own Meng family has been completely tied to the big business, Meng Tianfang naturally doesn't want the clansmen in his family to do anything against the will of the big business.
This is also the reason why Meng Tianfang deliberately convened all the elders in the clan to discuss the matter.
"Head of the house!"
At this moment, an elder stood up, with some dissatisfaction in his voice.
"Although my Meng family is a minister of great business."
"But in the original battle of Chaoge, the head of the family, the ancient and modern times, was due to the great merchants, and now His Majesty's will is aimed at the rest of the families and sects."
"But even my Meng family is among them, isn't Your Majesty afraid that my Meng family will be cold?"
"Not bad!"
After someone spoke, another elder stood up angrily.
"The head of the family, before the big merchants collected the private soldiers of the world's families, my Meng family has taken the initiative to cooperate, but now the big merchants have abolished the old system, and they have to check the land of my Meng family!"
"This is to roast our Meng family on the fire!"
Hearing the words of these two elders, the faces of Meng Tianfang and the Great Elder instantly turned cold.
"Is that what you mean?" Meng Tianfang said coldly.
"Head of the house!"
After feeling the coldness in Meng Tianfang's words, the elders who spoke out before couldn't help but be afraid in their hearts, but they still said stubbornly.
"That's not what I meant!"
"Your Majesty's will, my Meng family will naturally obey it, but it is too ...... to abolish the old currency and exchange it in full."
"Good, good!" Meng Tianfang slowly stood up, and a terrifying momentum instantly overwhelmed the elders who had just spoken out to the ground.
"I understand what you mean." Meng Tianfang's deep voice was like thunder, echoing throughout the hall. "How many scaffolders have you done on top of our Meng family's silver ticket!"
For the Meng family, the silver ticket is essentially just paper.
Since the Meng family has the ability to issue silver tickets, it is natural that some people will have thoughts that they shouldn't have, after all, as long as they use a few pieces of paper, they can exchange for all kinds of property.
And how can no one be targeted?
"Great Elder, you are responsible for clarifying this matter, I want to see how many moths there are in my Meng family!"
At the moment when Meng Tianfang's words fell, the elders who had just been overwhelmed by Meng Tianfang's momentum spit out a mouthful of blood from their mouths.
Many of the elders who were not implicated also showed solemn expressions, after all, it was not only a few elders who had just spoken out who were involved in this matter.
"Yes, Master!"
The Great Elder looked at the elders below and returned to the Tao in a condensed voice.
Regarding Meng Tianfang's actions, the Great Elder was extremely understanding, and his Meng family bet on the right big business before the gambling game.
Meng Tian is the marquis of the Great Shang, and there are many clansmen in the family who serve under the command of the King of the Backers, as long as he honestly follows the Great Shang, his Meng family will not have to worry about the decline.
But now the elders of the family are still trying to confront the Meng family against the big merchants, and their essence is not for the Meng family, but for their own selfishness, no wonder the head of the family is so angry.
……
"The head of the house, they have all confessed!" After nightfall, the Great Elder came to Meng Tianfang's room alone.
"How?" Meng Tian asked the Great Elder in a deep voice.
"Head of the family......" A wry smile appeared on the Great Elder's face. It's no wonder that Jinning and the others will refute the head of the family above the clan meeting! ”
"If you exchange the old currency in full according to Your Majesty's will, I am afraid that my Meng family's family treasury will be emptied, and even if it is not enough......"
"What!" After hearing the Great Elder's words, Meng Tianfang let out an exclamation.
This is no small matter.
"How so?"
"Great Elder, I remember that the silver tickets issued by the clan have a fixed number! How could it be possible to empty out my Meng family treasury! ”
"Family master, Jinning and others ......" The Great Elder dragged out all the things about Meng Jinning and others privately printing the Meng family's silver tickets.
After listening to the Great Elder's words, Meng Tianfang's face instantly became gloomy.
Meng Tianfang never thought that there was still such a big rat hidden in his Meng family, and the number of silver tickets released in private was even more than the number of silver tickets released by his own Meng family.
Previously, this silver ticket was used for more circulation, and no one would pay it at once. The Great Elder naturally couldn't discover the means of Meng Jinning and the others.
However, with Yang Guang's decree to abolish the old currency, after the old currency was exchanged in full, what Meng Jinning and others did naturally couldn't be hidden.
"Great Elder, Your Majesty's will, my Meng family must not disobey it!"
"If someone comes to exchange for a silver ticket, give away the property and land in the clan first!" Meng Tian said in a condensed voice.
"Yes, Master!" The Great Elder nodded.
"The head of the family, the ...... of Jinning and the others"
"Abolish their position as elder, let them spit out all the things they have eaten over the years, and then arrange them to idle places in the clan!"
"Yes, Master!" Hearing Meng Tianfang's words, the Great Elder couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The Great Elder was afraid that Meng Tian would be angry and would kill Meng Jinning and the others.
"Master, I'll do it now."
……
There are all kinds of roads in the world.
Not only the Meng family, but every celestial force that had the ability to discover the silver ticket at the beginning fell into a similar predicament.
After all, this kind of thing is not just the Meng family.
Among them, the saddest should be the Great Light Temple.
Originally, the treasures in the temple of the Great Light Temple had been swept away by Yuhuatian, and most of them were divided into two parts, handed over to the elders in the temple, and a new temple was set up.
This account can not fall on the heads of the rest of the new temples, and can only be settled by the Great Bright Temple himself.
However, in any case, Yang Guang's holy decree has been issued, and Daguang Temple has no second choice except to honestly follow Yang Guang's will.
Those families who refused to hand over their private soldiers had already used the price of blood to tell the world the fate of disobedience.
