God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 957
What Ma Zhou is worried about is that as the center of gravity of Dream Group gradually shifts to Hu County, the population of Hu County will increase. By then, Hu County will become extremely prosperous. Ministers, this is a huge loss.

Hearing this, Du He waved his hand indifferently: "Old Ma, even if we collect all the businesses in the entire county, how much money can we earn every month? I don't care about this small amount of money. Besides, I Sending out all the business in the county is not a whim, but after careful consideration, and you will know it in the future!"

"Not at all?"

"Of course, I keep my word." Du He said with a smile.

Early the next morning, people from Chang'an came one after another.

These people all come from the mansion of the minister of the DPRK and China.

The purpose is also very simple, to acquire shops, houses, and land.

Originally, Du He wanted to sell some of the land outside the city, but everyone didn't want it.

What they want is a house and land in the city, because they can make money here.

As for the land outside the city, most of it is some barren land, and no one wants it at all.

Du He could only sigh with emotion, this is a bunch of snobs.

……

In the melodious sound of bells and drums.

The courtiers entered the Tai Chi Hall one after another.

The morning of a new day has begun again.

Changsun Wuji, Wang Gui and others who came back from Hu County appeared in the hall again.

When Li Er saw the crowd, he asked: "My dear friends, go to Hu County to inquire about the enclosure movement, do you have any clues? I heard that Du He was the mastermind of this matter, and the king of Shu and the crown prince were also involved. If so The evidence is conclusive, and I will not tolerate it."

If the courtiers objected strongly and the common people shouted too loudly, although Li Er couldn't bear it, he had to punish Du He.

Moreover, in his opinion, punishing Du He is not the purpose, but the purpose is for the stability of the Tang Dynasty.

The land encirclement movement sounds terrible. You only need to draw a circle on the map, and this piece of land belongs to the Hu County Development Company. Does that mean that if someone draws a circle in the future, Datang will belong to him?

His Majesty Li Er is the biggest landlord in the world!

He was even a little afraid of this enclosure movement.

He must curb this momentum in time, so as not to pose a threat to his rule, not even a little bit.

Wang Gui was the first to stand up and said, "Your Majesty, the matter of the enclosure movement has been thoroughly investigated. First of all, the nobles and merchants in Huxian County all sold their land voluntarily, left Huxian County to live in other places, and were not oppressed." , The so-called Concubine Du's claim to drive away the gentry and merchants with a whip is simply nonsense... Secondly, some people fancied that Nahu County had already become an empty city, and people were in panic, but I didn't find out until I went to Hu County This time, it was a completely normal land sale. As soon as the gentry and merchants in Hu County left, people from various other places bought the land and houses. In less than a day, all the shops were open, the streets were crowded with people, There is no adverse effect... Finally, there are previous ministers who are worried that all the gentry leaving Hu County may cause panic among the gentry in other places. In fact, after so much time has passed, no one cares about this matter Hu County is still the same Hu County, and the people are still the same people, there is no trouble, but some of the people living in it have changed!"

What?
The other ministers were all stunned.

Even Li Er was dumbfounded.

However, Changsun Wuji stood up again and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Wang is right. Before that, some people spoke out loudly, saying that such a large-scale relocation of the gentry would affect the people of Huxian County, and that there might be chaos. The ministers and others personally When I arrived in Hu County, I found that the common people were not affected at all. The common people in my Tang Dynasty were all sensible and well-mannered people. They didn’t take this mere change to heart. Now, this land enclosure movement has ended. Your Majesty, please don’t worry about this.”

"My minister agrees!"

"Seconded!"

The ministers who have been to Hu County all stood up and couldn't help saying.

Li Er opened his mouth wide in surprise.

This matter is so simple to solve?

Last night, he went to bed very late.

I have been calculating in my mind how to properly resolve this matter, not only to prevent the enclosure movement, but also not to dampen Du He's enthusiasm.

For this matter, he was depressed for a long time.

Who knows, the result will be like this.

Li Er didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and announced: "My dear friends, since this is the case, there is no need to mention this matter."

The other ministers were at a loss. It can be seen that His Majesty Li Er had spoken, and no one dared to seek death.

Situ, Sikong, the left and right ministers, and the bosses of the six departments all support this enclosure movement, and no one dares to stand up against it.

……

In a mountain depression thirty miles northwest of Huxian County, a group of people was stationed here, forming a large-scale camp.

At dusk, there is very little smoke from the kitchen.

The sighs of old people, the cries of children, the weeping of women, the neighing of horses, and the cursing of men... merged into one piece.

A carriage pulled by two horses was parked at the edge of the woods. The carriage creaked and shook, and the sound of men and women playing cards could be heard from inside, with non-stop crackling.

It took about a stick of incense to pass before the noise stopped.

The carriage curtains were thrown open.

Liang Kai jumped down and straightened his clothes.

Inside the carriage was his concubine who had just married recently. She was sixteen years old, and she was so beautiful that it made people addicted and unable to extricate themselves.

No, under such a tense situation, he quietly brought his concubine and his wife behind his back to the woods to play two cards.

That feeling... Tsk tsk!
However, he suddenly felt something was wrong around him, it was too quiet.

Swish.

As soon as he looked up, he froze immediately.

In front of him, no less than twenty people surrounded him.

All are heads of various clans.

The young ones are only in their 20s, while the old ones are already in their 60s.

Liang Kai said in surprise, "You..."

"Patriarch Liang, we all heard clearly!"

"The curtain of the carriage was blown open by the wind just now, and I saw it. The curtain is so white, and the pillow is so big!"

"Yeah, tsk tsk..."

"..."

Everyone talked and commented.

Some say he is great.

Someone said that his concubine was good-looking!
Liang Kai almost spurted blood.

He said angrily: "You are really a dog, I am ashamed to be with you!"

The head of the Yang family, Yang Cheng, was not happy, staring at Liang Kai and said: "Patriarch Liang, this is your fault. Now, everyone is unaccounted for. As you said, within two days, the court must have an order. Let's write a letter." You can get back the land and the house without spending money, but it has been three days, but there is no news, everyone is anxious, but you are having fun with that bitch, do you really think I am a fool? No, you want everyone to stay in this barren place for a lifetime?"

As soon as Yang Cheng opened his mouth, everyone began to criticize Liang Kai.
