Abnormal Three Kingdoms

Chapter 117
"Chu County, it's not good to openly offend the prefect, isn't it?" After Zhang Hong left, a director couldn't help persuading.

"I always want to offend people." Chu Nan leaned back and smiled. When a person makes money like killing his parents, although he hasn't done much in the past two days, he has touched the hearts of many people. Zhang Hong is just the beginning .

There is no way to resolve this kind of matter peacefully, because it involves interests. In the farming era, the most important resource was farming. There are many factors that have contributed to the decline of the Han Dynasty, but the lack of control over the local area, the merger of various lands is definitely a must. The most important part, if this problem is not resolved, it will be a virtue even if it is changed to a new day.

As he learned Confucianism and Taoism from Chen Gong, Chu Nan learned more about the things of this era. Combining some experiences of later generations, he naturally had his own views on the reasons for the formation of this era.

If there is no chaos in the world and the great Han is still prosperous, then family politics can indeed maintain local stability and save the cost of governance. Of course, the problem is also here, and the family will continue to grow. First of all, you will encounter obstacles from the aristocratic family, absorb what is beneficial to you, and ignore or ignore what is unfavorable.

If local officials want to do well, they have to look at the face of the family. Just like Zhang Hong is now, becoming the spokesperson for the family to negotiate with him, the root is broken, and there is no way to fix it.

But now I am just a county magistrate, thinking about it is a bit far away, even if I become a prefect, I can't help it. Humans have to move forward. Wanting the rise of the family is an instinct engraved in the genes, whether it is the court and the family or later. Whether it is a gentry, a balance needs to be maintained. When this balance is broken, it may be the root cause of the dynasty's decline.

Even now, all Chu Nan can think of is to win over the small family to fight against the big family, not to win over the common people to fight against.

On the other hand, when Zhang Hong returned home, the warm smile of the past disappeared. From Xiaolian to celebrity, to his current status, although his reputation is not obvious, he is considered to be in a high position. This is the first time he has met Such a situation of being contradicted by subordinates.

I really didn't save any face!

"Why are you angry?" Chen Ying, who was drinking alone in the main hall, looked at Zhang Hong and said with a smile.

At this moment, there are still people in the main hall, the leader is Chen Ying, and there are three other people sitting next to Chen Ying.

"You son of Chu Nan humiliated me face to face, he is really not a son of man." Zhang Hong snorted coldly, sat down and said, "Yuanyou, it's not that I don't want to contribute, it's just..."

It’s just that he, the prefect, really has nothing to do with the county magistrate of Chu Nan, here is Xiapi, even if he is Chu Nan’s boss, if he uses his power to do something to Chu Nan, Lu Bu will replace him before he even does it. .

My family knew about my family affairs, and my eunuch was acting as an acting eunuch. Although I didn't understand why Lu Bu appointed him like this, I guess he was reserved for Chu Nan.

If it were a different monarch, his words might still be useful, but Lu Bu is obviously not a wise monarch. Between his own family and outsiders, Lu Bu would choose his own family without reservation, and he probably wouldn't listen to what others said, which is very difficult up.

Alas, mediocre!

"In that case..." Chen Ying looked at the other three and said with a smile: "The three are from famous families in Xiapi, so they should know what to do."

"Ah, last time, I tried to force Lv Bu to compromise on the Yanzhuang with the price of grain, but Lv Bu did not know where to get a large amount of grain. Once or twice a month, each time was as much as hundreds of thousands of shi. It seems that there are more, not only failed to force Lu Bu to compromise, but I lost popularity, the loss of food is small, but this reputation... Sigh~"

Such things as driving up food prices are generally not done on their own land. After all, the most important thing for aristocratic families is their own reputation, and they dare not do things like fish and meat villagers.

It's just that after Chu Nan became Jin Cao, he came up with a new method of making salt, which cut their salt profits by more than half. Now the state government directly trades sea salt with other princes. I can watch Lu Bu make a lot of money.

But that's okay, at least they probably know the other side's method of making salt now, and now Jiangdong is willing to accept their deal, and they have made some money.

But now, after the salt, Chu Nan began to reach out to the farmland again. Although according to Chu Nan's government order, the target is only the farmland that has been registered but has no owner, but everyone understands that a lot of farmland is sold privately. , and the farmers who sold their land were voluntary, and they did not force them.

Now that Chu Nan has an official document, he wants to take back these lands, why?
This is also the reason why they gathered together, but if they were really against Chu Nan, no one wanted to be such a young bird. Judging from Chu Nan's wrists in the past two days, this kid really dared to be cruel.

"We did not violate the law. Chu Nan respects the law in what he is doing now. If I do not break the law, if he does something, then he is wrong. Why do you hesitate?" Chen Ying looked at the three and said with a smile.

The three of them naturally wanted the Chen family to be the first bird, but Chu Nan's decree was only implemented in Xiapi County. He wanted to deal with Lu Bu, but he didn't want to fight Chu Nan in this place, and now was not the time for the Chen family to show up.

Seeing that everyone did not answer, Chen Ying said: "Everyone, my brother has offended Lu Bu by winning the prefect of Guangling this time. If the Chen family moves at this time, Lu Bu will definitely move. If you make a move, Chu Nan will still make some sense, but if you lead out Lu Bu..."

If Lu Bu personally intervened, there may only be two choices, whether to give or not.

It's as simple as that, you just can't choose not to give it.

With the help of Chu Nan, Lu Bu has gradually got rid of his dependence on the gentry, and now he has the advantage over Xuzhou Mu, even the emperor of Xuzhou. If Lu Bu comes forward, the nature will change.

"Forget it, let's see how Chu Nan ends up!"

……

Early the next morning, when Chu Nan came to the yamen office, he saw that the yamen office was deserted and deserted, only a few of his masters and yamen servants were there.

"Where are the others?" Chu Nan asked, coming here every morning to talk about what to do today is almost a rule set by Chu Nan. It is not just a few master books who maintain law and order.

"I'm sick." A chief bookkeeper said with a wry smile, "Although not all of them, most of them are."

Chu Nan glanced at the few people who were still there, nodded in satisfaction and said, "Forget it, just sue if you are sick, today's matter..."

"Reporting to the county magistrate, the big and small towns and cities in the city are now closed and announced to be out of business." A government official came over and saluted Chu Nan.

"Understood, let's go down." Chu Nan nodded, indicating that he already knew.

A group of county officials looked at Chu Nan carefully, wondering what this man was planning, he was too calm, did he have a plan in mind?Still don't know the seriousness of the matter.

"Chu County, the closure of businesses in this city will cause panic among the people," a director reminded.

"I know, I have my own concerns about this matter, don't worry about it, each should do his own thing." Chu Nan nodded, he started his business as a businessman, how could he not know the problem, but he had thought of it a long time ago.

After preparing for so long, it's time to touch it. This battle is won, and it will be a leader for other counties.

"Today, I will continue to clear the cultivated land. I have marked the fields in the county that are in doubt to be taken back. Everyone, please work hard, and go to each other. If the other party does not agree, don't conflict with them. When you come back, someone will take it back. "Chunan marked the map one by one: "Master Li, you go here to harvest the fields today, Master Zhang is here..."

After Chu Nan explained what he was going to do today in an orderly manner, he looked at the crowd and said, "Go ahead, I will arrange things in the city."

"Here!" Now that Chu Nan had said that, everyone stopped talking and left according to their orders.

"Go and invite some people over for me." Chu Nan said to a yamen servant.

"Here!"

A quarter of an hour later, Xue Nian, Tian Yang, and Ren Zhao came to the yamen office, saw Chu Nan smiling and said, "Zi Yan, why are you looking for me today?"

Since the opening of Yanzhuang, the three of them are the biggest winners outside of Chu Nan, and they are also prominent figures in Xiapi now.

"Before I proposed to form a chamber of commerce, which would be directly under the jurisdiction of the state government. How many people are involved now?" Chu Nan looked at the three of them and asked.

Previously, Chu Nan intended to gather capable traveling merchants together to form a chamber of commerce, which would be directly under the management of the state government. He was so busy these days that he didn't have time, so the matter was handed over to these three people.

The chamber of commerce actually already existed, and now the chamber of commerce is involved in the trade between Xiapi and the princes.

"More than seventy people, most of them are former merchants from Xiapi, and some are also from Xuzhou, so they know the basics." Xue Nian laughed.

"The chamber of commerce was secretly preparing the shop, and now it can open." Chu Nan laughed.

How will those tyrants deal with themselves?When violent confrontation fails, soft knives will naturally be used. What is soft knives means that no one will do things for you, and let you rule the people's livelihood and ruin all businesses.

In the government office, the officials are all arrogant, and local businesses are also controlled by them. Outsiders can't get in their hands. If the county magistrate dares to fight against them, he can't do anything with you.

This is also the reason why Chu Nan is only working hard now. He has been preparing for these things before. The things he exchanged from the princes from all over the country, besides food, are all wanted by Chu Nan and Lu Bu. They can last for a while, and they These traveling merchants in the past were all engaged in the supply of downstream raw materials, such as Xue Nian's supply of silk, which the big family despised, but now they unite and can cut off the supply of the big family in reverse.

It depends on who can control whom.

Collective strike?Just make room for me!

"I've been waiting for this day for a long time!" Among the crowd, Xue Nian said bitterly. He was the one who was oppressed the hardest before, and even if he wanted to start his own cloth shop with all his wealth, he could get what he wanted now. , and can grab a batch of business fiercely, he is the most relieved.

"Are you ready?" Tian Yang looked at Chu Nan and asked.

"Well, now everyone is closed and closed, so polite, how can we wait for no reason?"

"Okay, let the others know!"
