As soon as he finished speaking, several family heads in the room nodded in agreement.

"Yes, this Su Mo is used to being powerful in the border army, do you really think that he is in charge of this world?"

"The border one, I can't play it."

The person who spoke was one of the four great families of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the head of the Chen family in Lingnan, Lingnan is located in the hinterland, mainly deep mountains and steep, which is rich in products, the people are fierce, and the minerals are famous all over the world.

When Xiao Xuan was the emperor before, he had great respect for the Chen family, so the head of the Chen family was extremely disdainful of Su Mo, and he felt that Su Mo was just lucky to meet Xiao Xuan, the pig-nosed emperor.

The head of the Wang family on the side also echoed.

"What Brother Chen said is very true, what he said is very true."

"The surplus money of the trading house controlled by my Wang family is more than 10,000,000, and the grain in his granary can only last for more than ten days."

"At that time, I still have to let my family decide."

According to his information, there are only one or two granaries under Su Mo's hands, which are enough for the Great Zhou Dynasty to consume for more than ten days, and using these granaries to open warehouses and put grain is just a drop in the bucket in the eyes of the family.

The head of the Zhao family nodded in agreement, and then sighed with some pity.

"This Su Mo is short-sighted, and he can't even see that the person who buys the grain is from my family."

"At such a price, we can make a lot of money this time."

Hearing this, the rest of the family heads all laughed, and everyone was extremely disdainful of Su Mo's opening a warehouse to release grain, the money in the hands of their four major families was more than 10 billion taels, even if Su Mo took out more than ten times the amount of grain, they could buy it.

Now it's spring, if you want to sow grain, you have to wait until summer, even if Su Mo has monstrous ability, it won't help, this grain department can't grow out of the ground, as for Su Mo's set of selling beef and mutton at a low price to relieve pressure at the border, it is a joke for everyone.

If the entire Great Zhou Dynasty was fed on beef and mutton, it might not be enough to slaughter all the cattle and sheep of the entire Xiongnu Dynasty, not to mention that Su Mo could not slaughter all the beef and mutton of the Xiongnu.

At that time, they will not only be able to stabilize their position again, but also make a big profit from it, after all, the initiative is in their own hands, and Su Mo is just letting everyone handle it.

Now that Su Mo is in charge of the four dynasties, the treasury is incomparably abundant, and the four great families are eyeing this wealth, and they have already finished negotiating, and no one will fight for the wealth of one dynasty in one family.

The rest of the family heads laughed when they thought of this.

"A stinky soldier became an emperor by rebellion."

"He knows the economics of."

"We'll take it all and see how much he has."

The words of several people made everyone laugh again, and everyone recognized this strategy, purchased grain, and forced Su Mo to continue to transfer grain, once Su Mo's grain could not keep up with the supply, it would be the day for their family to use their means.

Seeing that everyone had already discussed, the head of the Zhao family got up and clapped his hands, and then there were more than ten maids dressed in light veils and purple veils, and walked in slowly, more than ten dancers danced in the room, and the eyes of several family masters who watched were straight.

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, the head of the Zhao family said with a smile.

"A few, these dancers are not a tribute."

"Let the kings pick it up."

The remaining three were also unceremonious, each holding the two dancers and leaving with a smile.

The news of Suzhou County soon spread to the capital, Zhuge Liang entered the palace with a document with a displeased face, and in the study, Liu Bowen had been waiting on the side for a long time, and when he saw Zhuge Liang's figure, he nodded and said that you signaled.

Zhuge Liang was slightly stunned, and then quickly reacted, and said with an angry expression.

"Your Majesty."

"These families are simply rampant."

"They bought all the grain released by the government, and then sold it on the spot next to the grain store."

"Such a move is undoubtedly provocative."

Liu Bowen on the side looked indifferent and resisted a document.

"What is this?"

"Thirty percent of the officials we selected have been bribed by the family, and thirty percent have been coerced by the family."

"If the family is not eradicated as soon as possible, the world will be in danger."

He is in charge of officials from all over the country, and the situation of the officials sent out has a supervisory agency responsible for investigation, and as the information collected from various places is summarized together, Liu Bowen's body is trembling, he never expected that these families would be so bold.

The officials sent have been screened, all of them are loyal and reliable people, even so, there are still thirty percent of the officials who have been bought by the family, if they are left alone, I am afraid that it will not be long before all these officials will be bought by the family, and thus become corrupt officials.

The two glanced at each other, then looked at Su Mo and asked.

"Your Majesty, how should we deal with this?"

Listening to the discussion between the two, Su Mo looked indifferent and spoke calmly.

"It's okay, let them play a little longer."

"You two just need to collect evidence."

The methods of these families are all pediatric in Su Mo's eyes, and manipulating the price of food is a means he played when he had no money at the beginning, which is neither difficult nor interesting, and Su Mo has countless ways to counter it.

He is now at the mercy of the family, without any counterattack, the purpose is to make the family crazy, as the saying goes, if you want to destroy people, you must first make them crazy, and these families are now at this stage.

On the surface, they manipulated the price of grain, bribed officials, and fished the common people, which seemed to be extremely prestigious, but in fact, this was an illusion given by Su Mo in order to collect criminal evidence.

Under such an illusion, these families are even more crazy, and there are more flaws leaking, and the more evidence he has to settle accounts after the autumn, if he is just eradicating some people from the family, then Su Mo has a simpler way, his purpose is to eradicate the family of the whole country in one fell swoop, and completely solve the disaster of the family.

On the side, Zhuge Liang and the others listened to Su Mo's words, and their expressions were tight.

Both of them are veterans of officialdom, and it is easy to analyze the meaning of Su Mo's words.

Su Mo was very tolerant of those families before, and it seemed that he was a little relenting, but in fact he was not at all.

Su Mo is planning to put a long line and catch big fish.

He asked the two of them to gather evidence and it all said.

It's not that Su Mo doesn't know what the people of the family have done, on the contrary, Su Mo knows it very well.

These families disdained his discussions in private, and those rebellious words were even better than being placed in Su Mo's study.

But even so, Su Mo still didn't mind, he saw those humiliating remarks, he didn't have the slightest anger, just smiled and put those documents aside.
