Longevity: Beginning from Becoming a Clan Leader

The Gao family... was wiped out.

Mr. Gao's head lay on the cold ground. His eyes that gradually dimmed looked at the blood on the ground, but he couldn't figure it out.

How did that happen?

How could it be so easy to gain power?

Shouldn't we start with money first?

Only if you have money, those officials will like you.

Only when you have money can you be protected by officials.

Only when you have money can you pretend to be powerful.

In fact.

From a certain perspective, Mr. Gao's idea is actually okay.

However, powers are diverse.

After all, he still hasn't figured out what is the greatest and most firmly established power in this world!

It's force!

There is a flesh and blood realm warrior!

It's power!

Three villages unite, there is strength in numbers!

It's military power!

Legal food tax team members!

In all aspects, he can't compare to any of them!

Chen Nuo started from his own strength, but he only placed his hope in external things and others.

It just so happens that I don’t have self-awareness yet.

The final outcome has already been determined.

…

A big family.

The so-called big family in town.

It is a small and well-established family, prosperous in business, and has a small reputation among low-level officials in the government.

He owns several profitable shops, many fields and farm laborers, and has a dozen or twenty nursing home servants at home. From time to time, he communicates with other wealthy households in the town...

This is the general size of large households in the town.

but.

Compared with the fierce armed forces that are like wolves and tigers, the large towns-level households seem somewhat weak.

Although this armed force is not very professional...

boom!

Three strong men forcefully broke open the door, and then there was a rush.

Those with armor will advance forward to break the formation!

Those with spears stand behind and assassinate!

Four or five servants with swords died in the blink of an eye.

The subsequent development was also very smooth, and the family was soon beaten to the point of surrender.

Chen Xiao stood up and led someone to take away a cart of goods, leaving behind a sealed document.

It roughly states how much the Mo family in Qinghe Town pays for food... It is worth encouraging.

Quick victory.

Chen Nuo hid in the grain tax team and quickly broke into several large households in the intelligence, killed their servants, and took away a small amount of the property on the surface, leaving only a legal document.

There is basically no offense to the wealthy family members who surrendered.

After all, if you kill all these big households, you won't be able to fool them even if you have the guise of a grain tax team, and you will definitely be in trouble.

It would be better to weaken these big players first and use them as a deterrent, and then just give them some sweet dates.

If they were shameless, it wouldn't be a big deal for Chen, who had become stronger by then, to destroy them.

but.

Except for two.

One is the initiator and has an old grudge against the Gao family.

Chen Yong, Chen Li and others destroyed the family.

One is Shan Jia, the largest medicinal material dealer in Qinghe Town.

Chen Nuo secretly led people to destroy the family.

As for why?

Of course, the Shan family, who seconded the coercive behavior, would not be destroyed, but if it blocked the Chen family's path, they would have to be destroyed.

…

dusk.

The dim red sunlight gradually sets.

The light shines on the small town, but the earth is reflected in a bright red, bringing a sense of foreboding.

Town centre.

Chen Nuo sat opposite the mayor.

Surrounded by the heads of large families.

At this moment, everyone was trembling, looking at the young man sitting on the seat, drinking tea calmly, with fearful eyes that wanted to resent but did not dare.

no way.

It was this young man in front of them who suddenly walked in while they were eating delicious food and watching singing and dancing.

The bloody corpses of the servants were still lying in the yard.

What's more, this guy actually has the right to do this!

There are two ways to pronounce the official character, you can say it however you want.

If you are said to be a traitor if you don’t pay for food, then you are a traitor!

No, no!

So, I am really scared and panicked...

Qinghe Village Chief Li Meng was almost stunned.

Looking at Chen Nuo who was drinking tea calmly, the corners of his mouth twitched and he felt his head start to hurt.

Why is there such trouble all of a sudden...

No matter what, he still forced himself to start the "banquet".

"Everyone, please introduce me. This is the newly appointed envoy of the county, Chen Nuo, Mr. Chen."

"The chief officer is responsible for the payment of money and grain in Qinghe Town, Chenjiazhuang, Shang'ao Village, and Xiaoshan Village."

"As for the grain tax team... it is also legal, but I hope Mr. Chen will tell me in advance beforehand. At least it needs to be coordinated with the local people in charge."

Li Meng said with some resentment.

He had just turned over the documents that had been handed down from the county some time ago.

The position of Baozhaozhi is of no rank and rank. To put it bluntly, it is actually the same as the village chief.

But the power is not small. As long as sufficient money and food can be collected, the restrictions on it will be much smaller.

For example, the armed force of the grain tax team is legal and equivalent to the local township warriors.

It is also allowed to practice, and you can also wear armor, hold spears, use knives, etc. Of course, you must bring your own weapons, and the county government will not pay a penny.

Moreover, there is a limit on the number of people. A village can only have fifty people regardless of its size. Chen Nuo has four villages (Qinghe Town is actually a village), so strictly speaking, he can recruit two hundred legal armed forces.

The purpose, of course, is to allow Bao Bao Envoy to better suppress the countryside and collect money and food.

Otherwise, if they collect so much money and grain, but haven't assigned enough people to protect the first level, they might be killed by the angry villagers led by the local big households before they collect enough.

At that time, the people will be resentful and it will be difficult to deal with.

Now?

The contradiction has shifted!

Don't blame the officials, this is all because the envoys are not human!

Killing them as a sacrifice to vent the people's hatred!

So, this position of envoy seems to have power, but in fact, it is a double-edged sword.

I don't know if this young clan leader has seen it?

Li Meng subconsciously glanced at Chen Nuo.

But he saw that Chen Nuo was also looking at him seriously.

"Okay, I was so anxious before, and I was a little presumptuous."

"Next time, I will inform Village Chief Li in advance."

Li Meng's eyebrows jumped wildly.

Good guy, are you going to come next time?

Not only him, but also the big family heads sitting next to him trembled and trembled, cursing this bastard in their hearts!

Murderer!

"Haha, okay, okay, remember, just inform me, that's it." Li Meng said reluctantly.

Chen Nuo smiled kindly.

"Ahem, then let's talk about how to collect money and grain in the future."

"After all, it's only good for everyone. If I'm good, everyone will be good."

"Yeah, what Patriarch Chen said is right."

"That makes a lot of sense."

"I agree."

"..."

"Thank you all for your kindness. I'm overwhelmed."

"In the past, the money and grain collection was mainly grain, but this year it has changed. Money can be used to pay it off."

"In the past, it was..."

Chen Nuo began to talk.

The big family heads below gradually calmed down and listened carefully.

Although they were very scared.

But if Chen Nuo really went too far...
