44. Contemptible people are not talented, and the family has quite assets
No one came forward to speak to the man who had been escorted out of the door.
Everyone is not stupid, they can see that Fang Yi now has the intention of killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys, if you are not a monkey, you have to be a second chicken.
And that guy really deserves it!
The crowd in the hall cursed secretly.
What does officialdom pay attention to? Friendly!
Everyone is having a good time, you have a hot temper, you jump up and down on the bright side, you think you are the boss?
Fang Yi was very sure that no one would stand here to refute him for him, after all, he was not even a pawn of the Shi clan, and this time he jumped his feet, he just wanted to take the opportunity to suppress Fang Yi to curry favor with the Shi clan.
Unfortunately, the method and timing of the curry favor are not very clever......
"But then again, Lord County, where should I get the money for the grain?"
The bearded man regained his breath and asked.
"So General Lu Bu didn't tell you yesterday?"
Fang Yi laughed secretly, seeing them behaving like this, then Lu Bu clearly didn't tell them the news that he got the money, otherwise even if they pretended, they wouldn't have pushed so deeply.
"Where is the county lord, the military generals at and below the county level have always been well water and do not interfere with river water, General Lu Bu, why do you want to tell me and wait?"
When the man saw him lead his words to Lu Bu, he suddenly felt bad, not to mention that he was also a little weak-hearted, if Lu Bu really had something to hide from them, his own side would obviously be at a disadvantage, maybe if he said something wrong, he would be cocooned like the man just now.
"It's a pity..."
Fang Yi raised his head lightly, so that the audience couldn't figure out his thoughts.
If Lu Buzhen told the scholars the news that he had gotten the money, he could also punish him for the crime of interfering in the government, after all, it has always been one of the taboos for military generals to participate in civil and official battles.
What's more, he is a rebel general, and his identity as a slave with four surnames has room for his own operation.
"Presumably it was the Diao Chan guy who told him the seriousness of this matter, with her, it is still a little difficult for him to move Lu Bu."
Fang Yi sighed secretly, no longer entangled in this, beckoned, signaled Qin Liangyu beside her, she reflexively walked back to the compound, and after a while, she returned to the hall with a group of domestic servants, carrying a lot of treasure chests full of gold and silver.
The eunuchs of the scholar clan had long been dumbfounded, and boxes of gold and silver reflected their iron-blue faces, which was really a demeanor.
"Contemptible people are not talented, the family is doing business as soon as possible, quite some assets, Luoyang City is in this difficult time, as the county lord, I am naturally willing to lead by example, contribute some property, of course, not much, there is just 5 million taels of grain purchased."
Fang Yi laughed, they wanted to use money to force themselves to weaken their control over Luoyang, so they would use the money to knock them down in a wave.
In the past month, the impact of foreign businessmen and the centrifugation of the people, most importantly, coupled with the scramble during the war, made Fang Yi very confident that the economic situation of these people at the bottom would not be much better.
Even if there are so many smart people, it's okay to have Fang Yi, a big dog?
Tens of millions of silver taels, I'm afraid the net profit in this city in a year is not so much, right?
Of course, that's without counting the subordinate counties.
Therefore, Fang Yi is very confident and very strong, even if he spends the remaining 5 million silver taels, he will let this Luoyang City change the sky!
I want to let real people help me manage this county town, not a group of wine bags and rice bags that will only oppress the people.
It's just that they are well versed in the way of officialdom, relying on power and wealth in their hands to fight openly and secretly, but they don't have the ability to do things, and those who can really do things are still subject to them, why?
I have power, I have wealth, so what use do you have?
A month into rebuilding the city, he had had enough of the abomination of these moths.
Pull out the rotten ones and replace them with a bunch of fresh blood!
Whether or not the blood is spoiling, at least they can do something, can they?
Fang Yi looked at the stunned expressions in the audience, and the expression on his face became more and more indifferent.
"Food and silver, when the people of Daqin arrive, they can be exchanged, of course, you don't need to contribute a penny, after all, everyone is here to earn money, and I don't have a reason to ask you to dig out of your pockets."
Hearing this, many people in the hall breathed a sigh of relief, but there were a few shrewd ones, and their faces became more solemn.
They know very well that not taking their money is not a good thing.
Before coming, these scholars and bureaucrats had gathered together to discuss, and the only way in front of Fang Yi was to work with them to exploit the people in the city, so that everyone was mud, and no one should dislike anyone.
The second is to let Fang Yi open his mouth to ask for their help. The so-called short-handed manpower, they can also take the opportunity to make some excessive demands first, and even firmly hold Fang Yi in their hands, turning into a county lord with no real power.
If you buy grain with our money, then the grain has to be put with us first, and we have to put grain before we can put it, and you have to owe us a huge debt.
Not repaying? This is the official of the Great Han? Just casually order the imperial form, can Emperor Wu let you go?
No grain? Then just tell the people, you don't give them a way to live, do you think the people are coming to us for business, or for you, a lonely city lord?
They thought so before they came, and they also thought of a lot of Fang Yi's countermeasures, but they didn't expect him to really be able to come up with the money.
You have five million taels, even if you let the emperor pay for it himself, he will have to feel distressed, right?
Where did this get the money from the cubs?
The minds of the nobles were so full of this thought that they could not think of a new countermeasure for a while.
"The county lord can use this kind of wealth to help the people, it is really Luoyang's blessing!"
The bearded man and a few scheming guys saw that they couldn't escape today, so they flattered and flattered them.
Okay, you can solve it, count you rich, that's it this time, as long as we don't tear our faces, we will continue to walk and see in the future.
They think like this, Fang Yi doesn't think like this, who wants to continue walking with you and see?
"The food matter is settled, and besides, I think the bureaucratic system in the city is still too redundant,"
Fang Yi put his hands behind his back, walked to the crowd, and said slowly, "You see, there are hundreds of important officials who have come here alone, blocking my hall to the brim. Is this good? It's not good. ”
He spread his hands and continued as if helplessly: "Therefore, we have to further streamline the bureaucratic system, and the conditions for streamlining are very simple, just since last month, everyone present and your subordinates have contributed to the reconstruction of Luoyang. ”
Many scholars trembled, and they naturally heard that this county lord meant to lay off people.
Among the officials present, there were really some contributions to the reconstruction of Luoyang, but only one-third, Fang Yi's words were very simple, that is, to let the two parties confront each other, and himself, standing behind the people who had contributed, cut off all those utter waste wood.
"The evaluation of the streamlined system lasted for five days, and the relevant matters were in charge of the right envoy."
Fang Yi pointed to the man left by Emperor Wu at the beginning.
