Humane Yongchang

Chapter 124 Entering Chen County

Chen Sheng sits in the county government office.

Orderly dispatched troops to take over the granaries and arsenals in Chen County one by one.

Block off all squares and cities, strictly prohibit residents and refugees from going to the streets, and wait for the county government's announcement.

Summoned the three elders of the county, the officials of the squares, the chiefs of the pavilions, and the civil and military officials of the yamen to go to the county yamen.

Those who are willing to vote, go back to their original positions and do what he commands and does their duty.

If he is unwilling to vote, he will be sent down to accompany Xiong Wan, and another person will be promoted to take his place.

Once the butcher knife was raised.

never let go.

Killed until people's heads rolled and blood flowed into rivers!
The trolleys that transported the corpses lined up one by one out of the city.

The cruel method has scared those aristocratic families who are hiding in the dark and ready to move, so they all die, and they dare not think about anything else!
in their eyes.

The merchant Chen family has gone crazy!

Totally crazy!

Not only did he kill the bear!
He also killed so many mainstays that supported the operation of the county government!
After this battle.

Not to mention that the merchant Chen family may not be able to secure the plate of Chen County.

Even if his businessman Chen's family is stable, he is determined not to be able to play with such a huge county yamen!
at this time.

Why go to confront Chen Jiagang, a businessman with him?

Just wait for them to collapse on their own!

That kind of shock and fear is just not convinced, like the famous saying that has been passed down through the ages: watch him raise a tall building, watch him banquet guests, watch his building collapse...

Also.

How many people can frankly admit that they are afraid?
Chen Sheng, through the two information channels of Huai'antang Chen's family and grain merchant Zhang's family, is like watching the changes in the mentality of these aristocratic families!
He was extremely disdainful of it!
If those aristocratic families really had a bit of loneliness and courage, when he raised his troops to attack the county government, they would join forces and rush out.

It might really give him some trouble.

Now?

Ah!
Who jumped out!

who died!

As for the county office...

He is even more so!

The seemingly huge and well-organized county government office, in Chen Sheng's eyes, is actually a bloated, dull, and riddled old man.

There are many things that can be done well by one person, but they have to arrange several different yamen and arrange dozens of people to do it together!

If many people work together to get things done, that's all!

But in this kind of environment where a family of officials and eunuchs control the officialdom, they are still enjoying themselves like a pool of backwater.

The result of many people doing one thing is often that they don't do it well, they are afraid of making mistakes when they want to do it, and those who dare to do it are held back by those who don't do it.
The law does not blame the public!
Who can enter the county government office, who is not a related household?

This kind of official, Chen Sheng didn't kill him in one breath, it was already the result of trying his best to restrain his murderous intentions!
How dare you rely on your ability of one-third of an acre of land to come to him to pretend to be arrogant and loyal, to ask for conditions and treatment?

He only worried that he didn't kill enough to make room for those who were capable and wanted to do things!
……

When Shen, Chen Qi, Li Zhong and others successfully took over the four city gates of Chen County.

During You Shi, Chen Shou, relying on Zhou Zhang, brought back the soldiers of the Qianwu Commandery and returned to the Southern Camp.

At the time of Xu, Chen Sheng dealt with the issue of the departure and retention of officials from various squares, cities and yamen in Chen County.

At this point, Chen County officially changed hands.

The last name is Chen!

The Chen of the trader's Chen family!

……

When the lanterns first went up, the cleaning work outside the county governor's office was drawing to a close.

Inside the county governor's office, the dense sandalwood wafted between the two rows of neatly arranged Taishi chairs, and there was no longer the slightest smell of blood in the air.

Many people in charge of the business Chen family gathered together.

Chen Sheng didn't sit down on the steps of the county guard.

Instead, he moved a chair and sat down in the middle of the steps.

Chen Shoudu sat on his left.

He closed his eyes, as if he was closing his eyes.

But the strange eyes that kept swiping at his face one after another made him very angry.

He knew exactly what these bastards were looking at!
Don't you just want to see their father and son put on a show of kindness and filial piety?
He can't be fooled by this!
snort!
Chen Sheng also looked around at the faces of many uncles and uncles.

He is also worried that the uncles in the family will have bad views on him, such as being unfilial and being too utilitarian, because of his actions today.

But the seat above the county governor's office really couldn't let his father sit.

This is better than not being able to negotiate the seat of the head of the Chen family.

Chen Shou could sit on the seat of the head of the Chen family, a businessman. Even if he occasionally made mistakes, it was a small problem that did not affect the overall situation.

But the county governor's seat.

Chen Shou can't play, um, even if he uses the part of his hidden ingenuity, he can't play!

And once this position goes wrong, it will definitely be a big deal!
It is impossible for him to follow behind his father all the time and clean up the mess for his father...

Moreover, this position is also related to his subsequent series of layouts and plans.

Including but not limited to the luck point bonus that this seat will bring him.

Fortunately, Chen Sheng looked left and right, and the uncles in the hall were mostly joking and teasing about this.

He was relieved.

What he has to do will get bigger and bigger.

There will be more and more people to contact.

He cherishes this warm and harmonious incense in the Chen family.

Soon.

Chen Sanye, who came back from Panlong Village outside the city, finally arrived.

Many uncles in the hall got up one after another.

Chen Sheng greeted him, personally supported his old man's arm, and asked him to sit on the empty seat on the upper right.

Chen Sanye glanced at the changes in the seating arrangement in the hall, his cloudy eyes slowly narrowed into a line.

He patted the back of Chen Sheng's hand and said three "good" words in a row.

Chen Sheng smiled and respectfully invited the old man to his seat.

Then they returned to the middle seat and spent a quarter of an hour reporting their achievements and achievements today in detail.

At the end, he concluded: "In general, from now on, Chen County is our family's final decision. In the future, when our son goes out, there is no need to report to the Chen family. From now on, we will— —Chen County Chen Family!”

There are many Chen families in Chen County!

All walks of life, all races and halls, large and small, can easily count twenty or thirty!
But from this moment on, their merchant Chen family is the first in Chen County!
It's not the first family with the surname Chen in Chen County!
It is the first of all the aristocratic families in Chen County!
The Chen family is the Chen family of Chen County!
Chen County is the Chen County of the Chen family!
Everyone in the hall already knew the result.

But at this moment, when I heard this sentence from Chen Sheng's mouth, I was still so excited that my whole body was trembling, and my eyes were filled with tears of pride!

Someone grabbed the collar and stuffed it into his mouth, biting desperately, biting desperately!

Some people are rubbing their hair, frantically rubbing and scratching their scalps, as if trying to see if rubbing can catch fire on their own heads.

Some people are desperately slapping the seat, slapping the seat, and the seat is smashed and the palms are dripping with blood, and they can't help but want to shoot something...

Chen Sheng looked at them, opened his mouth several times but couldn't say the words "quiet and quiet".

For the first time, he knew that it was difficult for people to shout when they were excited to a certain extent.

He looked to Third Master Chen for help.

However, he found that even Chen Sanye's old eyes were full of tears.

Aware of Chen Sheng's gaze, he smiled reluctantly, and said softly and kindly: "Let them be happy for a while, be happy for a while, our family has been waiting for this day, it's been too long... too long, too long!"

Chen Sheng was a little confused.

He couldn't understand why the first family in Chen County could make these uncles so happy.

It's as if he doesn't know how much effort and grievance the four generations of the Chen family have put in in order to gain a firm foothold in Chen County...

The merchant Chen family felt that they were the merchant Chen family in Chen County.

But Chen County never regarded the merchant Chen's family as his own merchant Chen family...

evidence?

Just look at the four generations of mistresses of the Chen family, who are all from outside the county.

Good half sound.

The lobby gradually calmed down, and many uncles and uncles turned their attention to Chen Sheng again.

Chen Sheng was very keen to find that there was something more in their eyes.

Seems to be tough.

Seems to be firm.

In short, the original fluttering eyes have suddenly gained content and power!
It made him suddenly feel a little pressure.

He couldn't help laughing and said, "Masters and uncles, don't look at me like that, I'm still a child..."

"Hahaha……"

Everyone in the hall laughed in unison.

"Don't be afraid, you go back and give Lao Tzu the whole two grand-nephews, you are an adult!"

"Nonsense, two are not enough, no matter what, you have to have ten or eight. Qingniang is still young, I see, she can do it!"

"Hey, why are you making it difficult for Qing Niang alone? With our current status, can't we get a few wives and concubines?"

"Lao Qi, I've known you for so many years, and your words are the most human-like words. My brother supports you. If you drive tomorrow, you can go to the street and step on the plates. When you see that girl looks like Zhou Zheng, you can grab it back for Dalang! "

"Okay! Seventh brother's urination! If there is no one, you should say something, and my brother will help you carry someone!"

"Go go go, when did I say that I was going to grab the eldest daughter..."

A group of unscrupulous uncles laughed and scolded them. Many uncles listened, but no one reprimanded them. Instead, they smiled and stroked their beards, and some people kept nodding, as if they were in favor of some of them. statement.

The condensed atmosphere in the lobby also relaxed.

Chen Sheng could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It was the things in their eyes that made him feel inexplicably scared.

"OK OK!"

Chen Sheng greeted them and said, "Let's get down to business first!"

Many uncles closed their mouths and looked at him again.

Chen Sheng raised a finger: "Our family is currently facing a big problem, and that is how to gather these aristocratic families in Chen County!"

"I believe I don't need to say the strength of these aristocratic families, everyone knows better than me!"

"Before the Xiong Clan was able to let them be, that's because there was still a court above them, so they weren't afraid of making trouble."

"There is no one on the top of our family to help us!
"We only have Taiping rebels standing in front of the court!"

"So, our family must take advantage of this stall where no one can manage Chen County, and persuade these aristocratic families in Chen County to let them all listen to our family!"

"What are we letting them do!"

"What do they have to do!"

"Let's let them kill someone!"

"They have to kill someone!"

"It's a must!"

"Only if they are obedient, can our family be safe!"

The uncles and uncles in the hall nodded in unison, thinking that what Chen Sheng said was very reasonable.

Well, no matter what the reason is, as long as they deal with those aristocratic families, they will definitely find it very reasonable!

Their family has been angered by the aristocratic families in Chen County for more than 200 years!

"Didn't you send someone to invite Duke Li?"

Chen Shou suddenly interjected, "Didn't he come?"

Chen Sheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, he will come to see me!"

Listening to his firm words, Chen Shou raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "What if he refuses to come? You should know that Li Si is the family of the county, he Li Si does not nod, and Chen Jun's These aristocratic families, I am afraid that few are willing to accept this soft!"

Chen Sheng stretched his tone and said a puzzled "um": "Who did you just say? Li Si?"

Chen Shou looked at him suspiciously: "Yes, the Li clan chief!"

Chen Sheng raised the corner of his mouth expressionlessly.

Ha ha……

Really... a big surprise!
"Then don't wait!"

He took a deep breath and said lightly: "I was going to give him some time to think about the Li family before. Since the patriarch of the Li family is his, then I won't give it to you, father, you can bring some 2000 yuan later. People, go to the land of the Li Clan and bring Li Si to see me... If he still refuses to come, then let the Li Clan be slaughtered!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the hall was shocked!
That's Li's!

butchered?

Say slaughter?

They grew up listening to the name of the county Wang Li, and their respect for Li was no less than that of the county government.

Even Chen Sanye said solemnly: "Dalang, this matter has to be well thought out. The Xiong colluded with the Taiping rebels. Our family did them. It's barely reasonable. Li... It's not going to end well!"

"Nothing bad to end!"

Chen Sheng shook his head and said: "If you are not convinced, you will fight, if you are not convinced, you will kill. The sun will rise as usual the next day without Chen County. These aristocratic families are far less important than they think, in the eyes of their grandson. Here, without them, Chen Jun's life might be better!"

"Exactly, the current Taiping Road chaos is not a scabies disease that can be calmed down in a day or two. Taking advantage of this stall, even if our family slaughtered all the aristocratic families in Chen County, there is still time to rectify Chen County. , to fight for the position of governor of the imperial court!"

"When the time comes, you say they were killed by my Chen family?"

"Did I say they were killed by Taiping rebels?"

"As long as our family is strong enough, no one will come to trouble our family for the dead!"

Many uncles and uncles in the hall were all moved when they heard the words.

They all felt that what Chen Sheng said seemed very reasonable.

But I always feel that there is something wrong with what he said!

But what was wrong, no one could tell.

Only Chen Sanye could hear the taste.

In this brat's mind, it seems that there is no distinction between the imperial court and the powerful.

Only the difference between strength and weakness!

As long as the strength is strong enough, he dares to stretch out his hand to measure it, whether you are a descendant of Emperor Gaoyang, or a family of a thousand years of county watchers!

He instinctively felt that this kind of mentality without awe was wrong and dangerous, and wanted to persuade him.

But his eyes swept across this majestic and majestic crimson hall, and he couldn't say anything to persuade him.

in awe?

Chen Shengruo was in awe of the powerful.

I'm afraid that the young and strong people of the Chen family who traded have been packed by Xiong Wan and sent to Zhoukou to dig canals...

Where will there be today?

Chen Shou also felt that although Chen Sheng was very reasonable, it was not right.

But he couldn't figure out the truths that Chen Sanye thought up, so he could only stare at Chen Sanye who was sitting opposite him, and felt that with the experience of his third uncle, if there was something wrong, his third uncle would definitely be able to see it.

But after looking at it for a long time, he didn't see his third uncle speak, and he felt a little relieved, nodded and said, "Leave it to Lao Tzu, and then Lao Tzu will lead the troops to Li's!"

No problem, that can be done!

Chen Sheng smiled and nodded.

He said again: "Second Uncle, is the inventory over at the granary finished?"

Chen Hu replied: "Not yet, but there is a large amount... There are still [-] stone grains left in the grain warehouse's account, but I estimate that it is about four or five thousand stone."

"So much difference?"

Chen Sheng frowned, and immediately let go!
No, no, no!

Go back and find each other for alms!

After pondering for a while, he said again, "Second Uncle, hurry up and count, as well as the arsenal and silver vault, give me an accurate number as soon as possible!"

Chen Hu nodded without hesitation: "Leave it to me!"

Chen Sheng looked at Chen Qiu who was sitting near the gate again: "Uncle Thirteen."

Chen Qiu bounced off his seat: "Hey!"

Chen Sheng: "In the early morning of tomorrow, send someone to notify the sub-rudders, capture the county and county offices, and keep the counties in hand, and wait for the commander's notice. "

Chen Qiu nodded and said, "Okay, let's go back and arrange the manpower to make sure that nothing goes wrong... By the way, Dalang, do we still need to do the recruitment of troops from the Tiger Hall?"

Chen Sheng smiled and shook his head: "Since the banner of our Red Army has been launched, there is no need to pass through the Tiger Hall... Li Zhong!"

A neatly dressed big man rushed out from the left, and respectfully tapped one knee: "The mark is here!"

Chen Sheng: "I'll leave the recruitment to you... Do you know why I leave it to you?"

Li Zhong suddenly raised his head and said loudly with a red face: "Yes, the general wants them to know, why!"

Listening to his cry, Chen Sheng was lost for a moment.

"very good!"

He said with a low and powerful sentence: "I remember, you haven't forgotten... Today's battle, you all did a good job, go back and prepare, five days later, I will give you the flag!"

Li Zhong looked at him with a frenzy on his face, as if he was looking at a god walking on the earth: "Wei!"
