The three countries are very nuclear

Chapter 27 Dead Knot
The Chen family, the Du family, and the Luo family are all well-known families in Zhending County. Over the past century, there have been many talented people in the family, all of whom came from Shizhou County. Although they can't compete with the world's first-class families, they are also quite famous in the entire Changshan County.

But in this short day, these three hundred-year-old families completely collapsed!

The family's wealth, money and food were looted by the refugees, more than half of the clan members were killed or injured, and all the heads of the three families died.

A hundred years of hard work and a hundred years of brilliance, it took only one day for Lin Chao to collapse them all.

After the refugees looted the wealth of the three major families, all the remaining families in the city were in danger, and even the families joined together, gathered their servants together, and prepared to fight these refugees with their lives.

But at this moment, Liu Bei appeared in front of the refugees in due course.

"All strong men, please listen to a certain word!"

Liu Bei's opening remarks were exactly the same as that of the Patriarch of the Chen family, but the effect he received was completely different.

After these refugees heard Liu Bei speak, they all stopped.

"What teachings does Mr. Xuande have, I will listen with all my ears!"

Someone among the refugees shouted loudly, and the people beside them nodded.

Liu Bei said with a sad face: "You are all people who have been tortured by Zhang's thieves and left their homes as a last resort. I felt very sorry for him, so I opened the treasury and embezzled military rations to keep you alive. But what are you waiting for! In broad daylight, You even rushed into other people's houses to snatch property, you still have the laws of the big man in your eyes!"

After being reprimanded by Liu Bei, these refugees all showed shame, and some people argued unconvinced: "Mr. Xuande, it's because these bastards refuse to borrow food, otherwise we wouldn't go for it!"

"You can grab it if you don't want to borrow it?"

Liu Bei scolded loudly.The man knew he was wrong, so he lowered his head and dared not answer.

"Let's say today that you are the first offender, and there is a reason for the incident, so you can pretend you didn't see it." Liu Bei said loudly in the face of tens of thousands of refugees, "but if you dare to commit robbery again, as a court official , I will definitely take you down and punish you according to the laws of the Han Dynasty!"

Hearing this, the eyes of tens of thousands of refugees lit up.

According to Duke Xuande, he doesn't intend to pursue it.

Not only did he not pursue it, it seemed that he was not even going to take back the stolen things!
Thinking of this, these refugees gripped even tighter what they had just snatched!

Now that they have grabbed money and food, and there is no danger of starving to death in a short time, who is willing to work hard?

What's more, the target of desperate efforts is Liu Bei.

"Thank you, Lord Xuande!"

"Duke Xuande is benevolent and righteous!"

……

All kinds of voices praising Liu Bei came and went.

These people robbed the things of the three major families, but it was Liu Bei who was grateful in their hearts.

And the most frightening thing is that tens of thousands of people present take this for granted.

These refugees seem to have a huge team, but in fact they are just stragglers. If they want to use them, they can only use a vigorous method.

In other words, after today, these refugees have grabbed enough food for a period of time. Even if Liu Bei personally takes them to grab the food, it is unknown how many people are willing to follow.

No one is willing to work hard when they can fill their stomachs!
After the three major families were wiped out, these refugees gained a lot and hoped to survive, and naturally lost the courage to move forward.

Liu Bei came out to stop them at this time, and at the same time implicitly stated in his words that all the things he snatched today are his own. There is no reason for these refugees not to kneel down and thank them.

"You wait and return to the original place, set up the pot to make food, and fill your stomach first." After some severe reprimands, Liu Bei slowed down his tone and began to appease everyone, "Wait until tomorrow, and then send someone to borrow food, I will never let you wait to starve."

Hearing these words, a group of refugees borrowed the slope to get off their donkeys, and returned to their original place happily.

Even if Liu Bei can't borrow food tomorrow, don't be afraid, after all, the three major families are too rich!
Seeing this, Liu Bei heaved a long sigh of relief, he was really afraid that these refugees would not listen to him.

In Lin Chao's words, it would be a lot of fun if you get off the hook.

At the same time, those families who were preparing to jointly resist the invasion of refugees also breathed a sigh of relief.

The fate of the three major families is in sight, if they have no choice, they really don't want to fight these untouchables.

It's no good to win a fight, and you have to die if you lose. Anyone will think it's not worthwhile.

Not far away, Lao Yin Bilin Zhao couldn't help laughing when he saw that the drama directed by him was about to end.

"Lin Zichu, thank you for being able to laugh." Tian Feng said angrily.

"Why can't I laugh, you see, such a happy ending." Lin Chao asked a little strangely.

Did this Lin Zichu have some misunderstandings about happiness!
Tian Feng really wanted to slash Lin Chao with his sword, if Dian Wei wasn't right beside him.

"With your Lin Zichu's wisdom, if you don't believe me, you can't think of any other plan, so you must do this?"

Lin Chao shook his head, and said with a smile, "It's a great honor to be evaluated by Tian Yuanhao. It's just that you think highly of Lin. This is a dead end. What can I do? Besides, it's just a few rats that died, Yuan Hao needn't be so sad."

Am I grieving for those families!
I'm lamenting your shameless and vicious methods, Lin Zichu!
However, the word "shuoshu" in Lin Chao's mouth still made Tian Feng quite concerned.

"Lin Zichu, in your opinion, is it true that all the aristocratic families in this world are masters? I don't agree with this statement!"

"Of course not." Lin Chao denied, "Wealth has been accumulated for generations, and eventually it snowballs more and more. This can be called a good way of making money. How can it be called a Shuoshu?"

"Then you..." Tian Feng was completely puzzled.

Lin Chao didn't answer Tian Feng's question, but sighed: "Brother Yuan Hao, the big man has a lot of land. Some people have more land, while others have less land."

"In a disaster year, those heads of Guizhou who have worked so hard on the land can't even feed themselves, how can they pay the imperial taxes?" Lin Chao looked at Tian Feng and asked, "Tian Yuanhao, if you were these heads of Guizhou, what would you do? "

"I……"

Tian Feng was silent, he had already realized what Lin Chao meant by the knot in his mouth.

"There are only two options. One is to sell the land. Sell the land cheaply to rich people in exchange for food that can last until next year. At the same time, I have to pray to God that next year will not be a catastrophic year like this year, or else The land has to be sold. As time goes on, more and more land is sold, and the remaining land is not enough to provide a family's livelihood even if it is a good year."

"But even so, natural disasters will come unexpectedly. For those Guishou who have already sold most of their fields, even if they continue to sell land for food, they will not get hope."

"So, they can only use the second method, which is to escape."

"Fleeing to those rich families who bought their fields back then, selling themselves as slaves, just to get a bite to eat. What's more, if no one is willing to sell themselves, they will have to starve to death, and luckily they will die. Those who die are the refugees you speak of."

Lin Chao looked at Tian Feng, and asked seriously: "Imagine, ninety percent of the land is in the hands of an adult man, and ninety percent of the common people who only control [-]% of the land, how can they survive?"

Tian Feng was silent again...

"This should be the knot you mentioned."

"Yes, with brother Yuan Hao's ability, is there a way to untie this knot?"

Tian Feng shook his head with a depressed expression.

"Someone can't, in this world...no one can."
