Chapter 525 Under the iron fist, the momentum is like a bamboo
In fact, the bald gentry and the pig-headed gentry are the same as Zhang Nianzu and others, and they are not blindly iron-headed.
After saying cruel words in front of Xia Tang, they wanted to slip away. Go to the mountains to find a Taoist temple to avoid the limelight, wait for the official to leave, and then come back to clean up the situation.
But who would have thought that the task force had already set their sights on them, and when they went to the meeting, the manpower had already been arranged. As soon as Zhang Nianzu and the others came out of the Xia Mansion, they were caught by the officers and soldiers who were ambushed in the alley......
The task force was supposed to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, but these people took the initiative to hit the muzzle of the gun, how could they still survive?
And it was none other than Zhang Nianzu's own long-term follower Zhang San who told the task force...... Thanks to the vigorous publicity of the beggar gang, Zhang San knew that 'whoever says bad things will stop it,' and the family property will be half of the property.
Zhang Nianzu is used to being domineering on weekdays, and the same is true for his subordinates. Zhang San has long held a grudge, and if he doesn't report it, he will keep it for the New Year?
This is the importance of publicity, in this era when everyone does not attach importance to publicity, the sixth child attaches special importance to it, and the effect is surprisingly good.
After His Royal Highness the King of Chu used ingenious means to divide the gentry and the common people, and even their own slaves. The dogs, who were already isolated and helpless, couldn't withstand the thunder of the two highnesses, and most of them honestly accepted the government's arrangements like Xia Tang.
A small number of diehards like Zhang Nianzu who could not see the situation clearly were naturally ruthlessly suppressed by the task force.

Yaqian Street.
The common people are three layers inside and outside, and the old men who are watching with great interest and are invincible on weekdays are put on heavy wooden shackles and tied to the yamen to be embarrassed.
"Haha, Zhang Nianzu, you also have today!" Those ordinary people who had been abused by Zhang Nianzu were naturally gloating, and some people spat on him and threw clods of soil. It made him embarrassed.
The rest of the squires were not having a good time either, and they all hung their heads and were spurned by others......
"The way of the world has really changed...... "At this point, the common people believed that the order that had been stubborn and unchanged for thousands of years was finally going to change.
"Yes, didn't Master Zhang say, 'The emperor takes turns, and the squire will last forever'?" Someone sarcastically said to Zhang Nianzu: "Are you still stubborn at this time? β
"Nonsense!" In the crowd, a Mr. Dong Yan with a goatee shook his head and sighed: "Since ancient times, gentlemen and scholars have shared the world. The emperor allowed them to kill the scholars and doctors, and the people's hearts would be lost. β
"Yes, could it be that the emperor still expects to share the world with these poor ghosts?" Another scholar, who was also sour, also said bitterly: "It's really unbelievable! β
"Almost." At this time, the person next to him couldn't help but say loudly: "Emperor Hongwu is the master of our poor ghosts, and it's in the way of you, right?" β
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't just look at what is in front of you. The imperial power is not lower than the county, it has been thousands of years. There must be a reason for it. β
"The ...... of the Imperial Court How long can the Rausch team stay with us? When they are gone, they will not return to dust and dust to dust, so what should they do? "The two scholars said a word to me and educated this group of 'country fools'.
"Nonsense, Zhang Nianzu and they have all been raided, even if they can save their lives, will the court return the family property to them?" The ordinary people who had just done it immediately retorted loudly:
"Who is afraid of poor ghosts like us?"
"Ignorance." The goatee shook his head and said, "Even if Zhang Nianzu falls, there are still Wang Nianzu, Li Nianzu, and some are squires who are in a hurry to get on the throne." They don't have as much family background as Zhang Nianzu, and they will look even more ugly when they eat, don't believe it, let's see. There will be times when you will miss him. β
"Besides, what the imperial court is used for, that is, the emperor uses it to collect taxes from us. How naΓ―ve are you expecting man-eating tigers to show mercy to you? Another reader also sneered.
"......" how could the common people say anything about them, and gradually they fell silent.
Just when the two of them were about to make persistent efforts and continue to make a lot of nonsense, they suddenly saw a beggar and led a team of officers and soldiers to drive over.
The two of them were weak for a while, and just as they were about to apply oil on the soles of their feet, they heard the little flag leading the team say loudly: "Don't move!" β
The two had no choice but to stand still, hiding in the crowd with their necks bent, not wanting to be noticed by the officers and soldiers.
"That's them!" The beggar had sharp eyes, pointed at them and said loudly, "I have been sowing discord there." β
"Come with us." Xiaoqi said to the two of them.
"What, aren't you allowed to speak?" The goatee said sharply: "Don't you hear the 'mouth of the people, more than the mouth of the Sichuan'? β
"That is, we didn't go against the court, and it was illegal to talk a few words?" Another reader also said excitedly.
"Don't be afraid," Xiaoqi said lightly: "I'm not here to arrest you, I'm asking you to go to a study class." β
"What class?" The two were stunned.
"I'll give you a reformation of your mind." Xiaoqi didn't talk nonsense, waved his hand and said, "Please, two." β
Said yes, the four fierce sergeants stood beside the two of them. They dared to say half a word, so they could only hang their heads and obediently follow.
In fact, not only them, but also those down-and-out scholars, Mr. Dong Yan, ruffians, street slickers, etc., who are most prone to yin and yang weirdness, rumors and confusion, etc., have also been forcibly gathered together by the task force for full-time study.
I heard that the study class does not need to pay for the food, and the common people are quite envious. If they feel that they have the ability, they will be favored by the masters of the task force, and they will definitely be used in the future.
As everyone knows, His Royal Highness the King of Chu just thought that these people were good at singing the opposite, and they added resistance to the work team, so they locked them up in the small black room first.
In fact, the sixth didn't expect to be able to transform their minds.
He planned to wait until everything was done and then put the honest one back. It's really dishonest, just send it to Chenzhou and Yongzhou, and let them go to the side with Shengfan......
~~
The two highnesses used both soft and hard, basically cleared the obstacles and stumbling blocks, and when the work of clearing the zhang finally began, the natural implementation was extremely smooth.
In just one month, the county's 200,000 acres of cultivated land were cleared, and a total of 80,000 acres of hidden fields were found!
The team even revised the poster without delaying additional work. A total of 40,000 hidden households were found!
His Royal Highness the King of Chu took the opportunity to add these 40,000 hermit households, as well as all the landowners of the hidden fields, to the list of immigrants.
After grasping the data of the county's fields and acres of household registration, the task force will divide the first division according to the actual situation, determine the head of the first division according to the amount of grain, and arrange the order of service.
After all these tasks are completed, the results will be recorded and compiled, and the yellow book of Dehua County will be completed.
The team then went to neighboring counties non-stop to repeat the previous work......
