My father is Yuan Shu?But I want to be a Cao thief

Chapter 168 Killing chickens to scare monkeys, means【Subscription】

Outside the house, the two looked back.

Zhuge Jin and Bu Zhi looked at each other again,
Bu Zhi sighed, "Ziyu, this official's request is a bit big. Those guys in Wujun don't worry about it. We probably have to bear it!"

Zhuge Jin nodded, but frowned and said in a deep voice: "Zishan, this lord is not simple. In just a few words, I feel that he seems to see through everything."

"Even my younger brother is not yet young enough to be a weak crown. Only a few people in the world know that he is a young talent, but he can see through everything."

"And you and I, we both claim to be outstanding talents, but people in the world don't know much about it. There are countless people who have served as officials to Chu Feng, but he opened his mouth to give you and me the post of captain of the county guard."

"I'm pretty sure he didn't serve for nothing."

"That is to say, he knows your abilities and my abilities extremely well, even my brother's abilities. It's too scary. I'm afraid this person's intelligence has spread throughout the world."

"Everything in the whole world is vivid in his mind."

After hearing Zhuge Jin's words, Bu Zhi frowned involuntarily, pinched his beard and said, "Ziyu, from what you said, it seems to be true."

"But that's fine, at least he knows how to use it well." Zhuge Jin continued.

As for the other side, in the posthouse, all the major families who had arrived were chatting with each other, all puzzled by Chu Feng's purpose for letting them come here.

----

In a blink of an eye, the next day was dusk.

In a manor, various families came one after another.

This time is a banquet for Chu Feng, and some things will be discussed at the banquet.

There is a seat for each person, and they are lined up in order according to their status, and they sit in several rows. It is estimated that there are at least a hundred people attending this time.

These are the families of officials, large and small, from all over the world.

At this moment, Chu Feng strode forward, straight to the first place, and his tense face made everyone's hearts rise to their throats, but at this moment Chu Feng laughed out loud.

"Everyone, it's not a big deal to call you here today, I just want to meet you, have a meal, drink a glass of thin wine, and chat a little bit,"

Hearing what Chu Feng said, most people breathed a sigh of relief.

"Of course, there are some trifles that may need to be said a few words. I'll talk about it after drinking." Speaking of this, Chu Feng clapped his hands,
I saw countless maids coming with meals,

A bowl of rice mixed with rice husks, a plate of boiled wild vegetables, and a half pot of turbid wine. These meals made these people who are used to big fish and big meat frown and nervous.
What does Chu Feng mean by this?

"Everyone, Shouchun is poor and only has wild vegetables to satisfy his hunger, so please don't dislike him!" After Chu Feng finished speaking, he took the lead in picking up the rice with rice husks, and ate with two wild vegetables.

"This!!!"

Everyone hesitated, but took two bites.

However, they who have always been well-clothed and well-fed, when did they eat such wild vegetables, and their throats were still a bit bitter, which was extremely difficult to swallow.

As for rice husk, it is even more difficult for them to swallow.Bite the bullet and took a small bite, these people all slowed down and held their breath.

Some even spit it out secretly.

Snapped!
Chu Feng restrained his joy, and smashed his chopsticks on the pottery bowl,

Everyone was shocked,
Chu Feng looked around at more than a hundred people, and said in a low voice: "Eat!"

As the words came out, everyone was really frightened by Chu Feng's stern aura, and they all swallowed the rice in the bowl and the wild vegetables in the plate. They couldn't swallow it, but they didn't dare to stop.

After a long time, everyone finished eating in that silent environment,

There is no way, if you eat slowly, Chu Feng's cold and murderous eyes will look over, no one dares not to follow.

"how is the taste?"

Everyone bowed their heads, and no one wanted to be the first bird.

Chu Feng smiled again, striding forward in front of each desk, every step touched everyone's hearts, at this moment Chu Feng stopped in front of a fat head and big ears,
"Magistrate Qi, is it delicious?"

Qi Geng bowed his head and said tremblingly: "Okay, delicious!"

"Huh, is it?"

Chu Feng's smile suddenly turned cold. He heard a clang, and he pulled back the sword at his waist, and then pressed his head on the desk.
Pfft!

The sharp sword was pierced from the back of the neck, directly through his throat and nailed to the wooden case.

"This!!!"

In an instant, there was an exclamation.

Everyone was shocked by the sudden scene before them.

Chu Feng actually made a move directly, and stabbed a county magistrate to death with a sword.

Clang!
Pulling out the sharp sword, Chu Feng wiped the blood on his robe, and raised his head again, with a warm smile on his face, a little evil, as if he hadn't done anything.

"My lord, dare to ask the magistrate of Qi what he committed?"

Chu Feng raised his hand, and several guards came in with documents and handed them out one by one. Chu Feng returned to his seat and opened a document.

Everyone looked at the document, all pale.

It says taxes!
Holding the Chinese book in his hand, Chu Feng solemnly looked at everyone and said, "This is Wushang's tax, and there are only three thousand households in a county?
The land in the territory is less than half of what it was decades ago? "

"Isn't it ridiculous? That's more than ridiculous, it's ridiculous!"

"The reason this person gave me is that Wushang has been harassed by Shanyue for a long time, and the people have withered, so there are very few farmers. But I sent people to investigate, and Wushang has not had any troubles in Shanyue for several years."

"The fertile land reclaimed in its territory is more than half of what it was decades ago. The people in these fertile lands pay taxes and food, and the money and food are all pocketed by this person. Do you think they should be killed?"

Chu Feng's icy voice was not loud, but it made everyone feel like they had fallen into an ice cellar. They were all terrified, and they hung their heads and dared not answer. If they thought they should be killed, what was the difference?
"The rice husks you ate just now are hard to swallow, right? But you know, many people in my territory can't even eat the rice husks and vegetables!"

Chu Feng's voice became louder and louder until he scolded angrily, that was hate.

Lu Su looked at Chu Feng, feeling a little worried in his heart, he was afraid that Chu Feng would mess it up.

As for the major families, they were all frightened at the moment, for fear that Chu Feng would set fire to them, after all, there were no clean ones present.

"For the time being, I only read his documents, and the documents from other places were accidentally burned by subordinates. As my subordinates, you also hope to share my worries."

"Now Shouchun has been massacred by Cao Cao, and there are many refugees and hungry people. I hope you can share the same hatred with me. After returning this time, I will submit taxes again,"

Chu Feng's voice softened a bit, and said in a deep voice.

After Lu Su listened, his eyes were slightly bright. There is something about the lord's trick of retreating. First, he killed chickens to make an example of monkeys, and then he pretended to burn them as documents.

Obviously to give these people a step,
In this way, the question is directly thrown back.

First, they were not forced to death, and second, after this incident, they must not dare to conceal too much, so as to increase taxes and even reduce hidden households.

There is still something.

"Don't worry, my lord, we will do our best." Several big families looked at each other and clasped their fists together.

They could see that Chu Feng had brought them here just to put on a show, and if he wanted to drink some of their blood, it would be difficult for those who didn't lose two pieces of flesh.

Seeing the statements of several major families, the rest of the people also agreed. It seems that this tax payment should not steal too much.

However, Chu Feng left a retreat after all, and didn't let people measure the land, etc., because he was afraid that the one step in place would completely annoy the group of people.
