Cultivation: I can reincarnate in the heavens

Although what Chang Ji said was somewhat exaggerated about the Xu family's achievements.

But this is not all lies.

With King Xing Tian as the backing, the Aoki-Xu family suddenly became the top powerhouse in Kansai Road from the powerhouse in Aoki County.

Being ruled by outsiders, the powerful people of Kansai Road will still be wary.

But..., the powerful people in this place are all inextricably linked.

With the Xu family and King Xing Tian as guarantees, and the powerful men not being die-hard loyalists to the imperial court, they had no intention of resisting the rule of Siming Mountain and easily gave up various cities on Guanxi Road to Siming Mountain.

Otherwise, if Siming Mountain really burns, kills, loots, and loots all the way, relying on the wealth of the powerful people, Siming Mountain wants to capture Guanxi Road in half a month, that is wishful thinking!

Even..., powerful officers and soldiers will be united to completely surround them and kill them.

The powerful and powerful family may not be like the Aoki Xu family.

But once Simingshan gets a firm foothold in Qingmu County and several surrounding counties, it will grow rapidly in a snowballing manner. At that time, these powerful people and wealthy people will no longer be able to think too highly of themselves...

…

"General Chang is so complimentary."

"We, the Xu family, are just trying our best."

When Xu Xing's biological father Xu Ming heard this, he cupped his hands and said modestly.

"If it weren't for our Siming Mountain Rebel Army, why would your Xu family..."

A rebel general asked.

"What General Chang said is true..."

"Our Siming Mountain was able to capture the Guanxi Road, and the Xu family and the Xu County magistrate really contributed the most.

Seeing the conflict between the local faction and the outside faction in Siming Mountain, Yao Dang, the king of mourning heaven, quickly spoke up to stop the further dispute between the two factions.

Silence fell in the living room.

Just now the rebel generals questioned the Xu family because they refused to give face to King Xingtian...

In Siming Mountain, apart from Yao Dang, the largest force is the faction led by Xu Xing. Even because of the support from outsiders, Xu Xing's power was already far ahead of the mourning king Yao Dang.

"Kill the gentleman..."

"This is for me to spend my own martial arts."

Xu Xing rubbed his eyebrows and looked at Kun Tianwang Chang Kun.

He didn't know if this was King Kun's unintentional and frank words, or if someone was instigating it.

He also understands the disadvantages of the gentry...

But to revolutionize the gentry means to revolutionize his current life.

The reason why he was inside Siming Mountain and the east wind prevailed over the west wind was because of the entry of the Kansai Taoist gentry.

When he was in Hupo River before, he asked Gong Yangyi to propose a rough plan to enter the Kansai Road. One of the purposes is that because Guanxi Road is his hometown, and with the support of talents from Guanxi Road, he can seize the power of Siming Mountain as he wishes.

"There has been a severe drought in Kansai Road for several years..."

After a moment of silence, Xu Xing finally spoke. As soon as he spoke, everyone in the audience paid attention and did not dare to neglect at all.

“Not only the common people suffer, but the powerful have also experienced repeated crop failures and have long been unable to make ends meet.

"What Third Brother said must be based on hearsay."

"The people are tired, and so are the gentry."

Xu Xing first set the tone for what King Kun Tian said, and then said: "However, the hungry people are all my fellow villagers in Guanxi Province. It would be disrespectful to not provide relief."

"In my opinion, the king's orders are for sale, and the orders of generals and officers are for sale."

"A gentry who donates more than five hundred dan can get the position of county magistrate; a gentry who donates more than 1,000 dan can get the position of governor; a gentry who donates more than 3,000 dan can get..."

"The rebel army is short of generals. Gentlemen who donate more than fifty dan can get a hundred generals. Donate a hundred dan and get a thousand generals. Donate a thousand dan and get a general..."

He spoke every word.

Selling an official position to win a title seems to be a bad policy. But in fact, selling an official position and getting a title, if done well. You can achieve unexpected effects than ordinary policies.

"Fourth brother, our Siming Mountain..."

Yao Dang frowned, "It's okay to sell an official position and get an order from the court. How can we, Siming Mountain, have such a reputation?"

He didn't agree with Xu Xing's strategy.

Let’s not talk about selling one’s official position, which will reduce the combat effectiveness of the rebels. Even if they really go to Simingshan to sell officials and titles, these gentry may not buy them. Who will buy a regime that lasts and dies?

"Mourning the Heavenly King..."

"This plan of King Xingtian is very good."

Hearing this, Gong Yangyi's eyes lit up. He walked to King Mou Tian and whispered: "This is King Xing Tian's desperate plan. Anyone who dares not to buy our official position in Siming Mountain is thinking about the imperial court and intends to return to the imperial court again. When the time comes to kill a few powerful men who refused to surrender before, how can the remaining ones be in trouble with their lives?"

"As for official positions, just pretend to be official positions. If you really have real talent and learning, then you can hold the position for real."

He analyzed the pros and cons of this for Yao Dang.

If the gentry's homes are really raided, not only will Simingshan be untenable in Guanxi Road, but even if the basic base of Guanxi Road is stabilized and other territories are occupied in the future, one can imagine the resistance of the gentry.

Selling an official position and getting a title is much more gentle.

Giving the gentry the motivation to rebel will not only not force the gentry to rebel, but on the contrary, it can also stabilize the basic base of the Kansai Road. When the general trend is established in the future, instead of resisting this policy, the gentry will actively join it.

"also……"

"King, these gentry are not all stupid people. Not only the court wants their food, but the rebels also want it, and the hungry people also want it. The food is in their hands and they cannot hold it, but...the more the disaster, the more Seriously, the more they dare not put out grain, the more they fear the hungry people will not only be unaware of their kindness, but will rush into the house, burn, kill and loot."

"This is a dead end. King Xingtian's strategy can resolve this concern."

Gong Yangyi pondered for a while and then explained.

At the end of the dynasty, it was not that some gentry refused to assist the government in disaster relief and would rather the food rotted in the granaries. But the officials in the imperial court were too corrupt and were outsiders. If the left and right hands are moved, only 30% of the food may be used for disaster relief.

This little food is just a drop in the bucket.

If things go on like this, the victims will get no relief, the gentry will bleed heavily, and only the officials will get fat.

These gentry are not stupid, it is not that they cannot see short-term worries and long-term concerns.

But there is nothing to do but to wait for death...

Of course, it’s not that there are no evil gentry, but the Kansai Road is so vast that not all gentry are evil gentry.

"Just follow what King Xingtian said, and implement the "Order on Selling Lords" and "Order on Selling General Officers"!

After King Mou Tian understood the benefits of selling his official position, he immediately gave the order.

"I will obey the order of the King of Heaven."

"I'll wait...respect the king's order."

"Your Majesty..."

Everyone in the hall echoed in turn.

…

Out of the meeting hall.

Xu Xing, along with his father Xu Ming, second uncle Xu Jing, and cousin Xu Shenghua, boarded the carriage heading to Prince Xingtian's Mansion. On the carriage, the four people gathered together and began to analyze today's events.

The carriage was surrounded by thick guards.

"Brother, I'm afraid Chang Kun and Yao Dang have ideas about you."

"It's better to make plans early..."

Xu Shenghua was the first to speak.

"good……"

"If you, Heavenly King, had not responded in time, our Xu family would have broken our trust with the powerful people and powerful families in Kansai Road, and we would have died without a burial place."

Second uncle Xu Jing also nodded.

Although they, father and son, did not win the same fame as Xu Xing, they became officials in the sacred capital. However, as a powerful man in Qingmu County, Xu Jing served as the official historian of Qingmu County. Xu Shenghua worshiped local celebrities as his teachers and made many friends.

After learning that Xu Xing led his troops to invade Qingmu County, the two father and son immediately drove away the county magistrate, broke into the county magistrate's residence with their family members, and forced the county magistrate to open the city gate and let Xu Xing's troops enter the county seat.
