Chapter 620
Bai Fan's call caused a brief silence in the field, and there was no sound for a while.

Everyone never thought that when they were cheering with the common people for Tang's possession of immortal food, now Lan Tianhou actually told everyone that the nobles would have a crisis of survival that would come with immortal food.

This is different from what is recorded in the history books. Isn't it only when the people are in trouble and the people are struggling to make ends meet?The prosperous Tang Dynasty has just emerged, so why is there such a disaster?
At this moment, an old and firm voice came, breaking the short silence.

"I, Mr. Li from Zhao County, agree to Lan Tianhou's proposal!"

What? ? ?
Everyone looked in amazement at Li Derao, the patriarch of the Li family in Zhao County. This gray-haired old man, who is in charge of the most powerful family in the world, actually nodded in agreement?
Even Bai Fan was puzzled. In his opinion, the Zheng and Wang families could use coercion or inducement to make them submit, but Bai Fan, the remaining Zhaojun Li family and Boling Cui family, was prepared. A lot of backhands dismantled the moves, but none of the backhands would be useful, so I agreed?
For a moment, Bai Fan had an illusion that this old man had already vented his anger with His Majesty, or that he had been an undercover agent of the imperial court all along?

"Brother De Rao, what are you..." Cui Minshou of Boling Cui Clan asked.

"Old Li, the Li family of Zhao County is the leader of the aristocratic family, how can you give in to this kid?"

yes……

Because of Li Derao's attitude, the crowd broke into chaos again.

boom!
Li Derao put the crutch in his hand on the ground, and the audience fell silent in an instant. Looking at this old man who was not angry and arrogant, many people were in awe. Unlike the fear of Bai Fan, some people dared to despise him Bai Fan, but no one dares to look down on this one.

"Confused!
Lan Tianhou has already stated the pros and cons, even this old man who is dying understands, are you still clinging to the obsession in your heart and can't let go?
As Lan Tianhou said, every sentence is for the sake of the development of the nobles, but it is just to ask us to give up the marginal tribes.

For those tribesmen and us, what can we scruple about?In the past, they were sheltered by us only because they wanted to survive, and to evade food taxes under the name of aristocrats. Now that there is no threat of starvation, what's wrong with them being able to face reality in peace?

What Bo Ming said is correct, the big business of the family is not in harmony, how many playboys and incompetent scums are bullying the neighbors and people in the neighborhood under the name of nobles?These people are far away from the lineage of the clan, good and bad are mixed, keeping them will not only be of no benefit to the prosperity of the family, but will also tarnish the reputation of the nobles. Instead of this, it is better to kick them out early, and save us nobles from being poked at the spine by the people and saying that they are rich and unkind.

In times of suffering in the past, the nobles gave kindness to the people in exchange for the kindness and tolerance of the people. In the future, this kindness will gradually fade.

I don't care whether you let it go or not, in short, I, the Li family of Zhaojun, are willing to support the imperial court. "

Li Derao's words caused the audience to reflect, and Bai Fan wanted to pay homage to Li Derao, and bowed solemnly to Li Derao, "Thank you, Boss Li, for your understanding. What Li Lao said is exactly what is good and bad. Fan has already said that I am also a member of the nobility. The reason why I do all this is not to target anyone, but to solve problems and avoid chaos in the Tang Dynasty. For the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, we must make some sacrifices.

Today's aristocrats cut their flesh to survive. Anyone who believes that when the prosperity of the future comes, you will definitely feel lucky because of today's actions, because if you old aristocrats can't follow the pace of the Tang Dynasty to save the old and bring forth the new, you will only be more and more behind. On, one day will be eliminated. "

After hearing Bai Fan's explanation, everyone was still speechless. Most of them did not expect such a scene today.

And Zheng Wenyong of the Zheng family in Xingyang sighed, and took the initiative to say: "Forget it, if a gentleman sees something good, he will move, and if he sees it, he will change it! What Mr. Li and Jianzhi said is fair, impartial, and hits the point. I am the Zheng family of Xingyang. There is no reason to persevere, and if you persevere, you will never let your evil go, and I, Mrs. Zheng, also support the imperial court."

Zheng Wenyong is also helpless, no matter whether this niece and son-in-law have cheated him or not, but now the problem is in front of him, the person who knows the current affairs is a hero, and the Zheng family wants to save, so naturally he needs to make a decisive decision.

"My Taiyuan Wang family is also willing to support the imperial court."

……

In this way, everyone can no longer hesitate. Four of the seven families with five surnames are left. Now the three families have agreed. The Cui family of Boling saw it. , we didn’t want to mine, so we nodded and agreed, and soon basically everyone agreed, and even those who were unwilling, did not object.

"Thank you for your generous understanding. With your support, the imperial government's decree can be implemented smoothly. I believe that with our concerted efforts, the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty is not far away..."

At this moment, Li Derao interrupted Bai Fan's words: "Wait a minute! Marquis Lan Tian, ​​are you trying to trick me into being old and forgetful?
For the sake of immortal food and the development of the country, you said that we agreed to pay food taxes, and you said that we agreed to reduce power. As representatives of the old nobles, we made such concessions, so you and the court have nothing to say? "

amount……

Only then did everyone understand that Jiang is still old and spicy, no wonder this guy is patient and patient, so he is waiting here, really clever, isn't this playing hard to get?We can make concessions, but if Hou Lantian can't offer reciprocal conditions and benefits, then the previous concessions may be out of the question.

Even Bai Fan couldn't help admiring the old man's shrewdness and wisdom. He cursed the old fox in his heart, but he could only smile on his face and began to give benefits. Originally, Bai Fan wanted to take the opportunity to turn around the matter of [-]% slaves. Come on, I can only figure it out slowly, this group of people didn't fall into the trap, and they agreed so easily, and I can't force it too much.

"Hahahaha, how could it be? The boy is about to talk about the support from the imperial court to you all. You are a wise old man, even if you are a junior, you will never dare to fool your old man.

Please come with me. "

Everyone followed Bai Fan in puzzlement to the [-] mu of fertile land outside Chang'an County. Looking at the well-leveled fields nearby and the two unknown species of plants in the distance, everyone couldn't help guessing, could it be? Is it related to this?
"Everyone, the first batch of fairy grains that have been harvested are called potatoes, with a total of [-] mu, with an average yield of [-] catties per mu. They have been put into storage. We saw them just now.

The second batch and the third batch are called corn and sweet potatoes, and the yields are extremely high, especially corn. This is not only comparable to the relief food for hungry people like potatoes and sweet potatoes. The yield of corn is about [-] catties per mu. A good staple food can be ranked with wheat and rice. This thing can produce thousands of catties per mu, so it is the most rare thing among fairy grains. "

"Hehe, we can imagine the benefits of fairy food, but what does it have to do with us old nobles? If fairy food becomes popular, we will naturally be able to get it."

Bai Fan smiled and said, "Mr. Li, after this year's breeding of corn, there are still not many fairy foods. How about giving priority to feeding you next year? Potatoes and sweet potatoes will be supplied to the common people. After all, you have sacrificed a lot to help, and you have obtained the staple food fairy." Food can be regarded as the court's preferential treatment for nobles, which is a good thing to save face."

"Hehe, you little doll has a lot of eyes. This can be counted as one, but it's not enough. It's just a year's worth of face. Sooner or later, this food will spread throughout the country." Li Derao squinted at Bai Fan and smiled.
