I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 170 Liu Billion

Most of the local gentry, prominent families, and powerful families in Jizhou are centuries-old families. Many families existed before Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiucheng became powerful in Hebei. Farmers, making them a local existence beyond the imperial power.

As soon as the court's three mutual laws came out, the land of Jizhou couldn't even select officials with suitable identities to take up the post. It is conceivable how deep the background of the local prominent families will be.

They control Jizhou's property and use it to clamp down on the government, so that every governor or prefect of each county has nothing to do with them, but can only cooperate with them calmly.

However, the most difficult forces and people with the most rules can often be defeated with the simplest and least rules!

The undefeated prefect of the imperial power, those Li Shuneng who have suffered so much!

The people at the bottom who have been exploited and oppressed by aristocratic families for a hundred years have finally found a vent.

The people at the bottom chanted the slogan "Heaven makes up for the average", and severely beat those blood-sucking families who are used to standing on the top of the pyramid!
I thought that after the Yellow Turban Uprising, everything would return to the right track, but the Haoyou really miscalculated this time.

The Yellow Turban Uprising seems to be just the beginning.

Those hooligans who are usually called "savages" by them can shake their existence.

All the families who are used to standing at the top and looking down on the wild people never thought that a simple sentence of "evenness" could actually arouse the soaring anger that has been oppressed for a hundred years, and it will intensify.

The growth rate of the Black Mountain Army and the speed at which they absorbed refugees far exceeded Haoyou's imagination.

To deal with imperial power, they can make use of the economics and politics of contacts.

To deal with local officials, they can also make use of the economics and politics of contacts.

But for those gangster rebels who are crazy and just want them to die and hand over their wealth, their methods of dealing with the imperial court officials are all bullshit.

There is nothing more terrifying than someone who doesn't even want their life.

I don't know how the prominent families in other states and counties should deal with this situation, but for the county Wang Haoyou of Wei Jun, Zhao Guo, Julu, Qinghe and other places, the only person who can solve their current troubles is this new Mr. Liu has taken office.

But Liu Jian didn't do anything at the moment.

Many people in Jizhou know that Liu Jian had some kind of friendship with Tian Feng in the past. When he dealt with the three powerful families in Zhending, he relied on Tian Feng to travel around Julu and Changshan, and persuaded several major families for him. .

In Jizhou, others have no friendship with Liu Jian, only Tian Feng has this face.

Therefore, at the request of the heroes of the four counties, today's scene of Tian Feng coming to see Liu Jian happened.

Then I heard Tian Feng start a verbal bombardment:

"Your Majesty, now Weijun and Zhao Kingdom are heavily harassed by bandits from the Black Mountain Army, and the people in the counties are unbearable. The private property of Wubao of many local families has been seized by thieves, and the state government is in turmoil. At this time, it is the time for the envoy to use Wu to stabilize the situation. the time of the peoples,"

"But Shijun just sits in the hall every day, and ignores the wars and wars, and the sufferings of the common people, and turns a deaf ear to them."

"My envoy, is this what a pastor should do? Is this what a wise person should do?"

"Is this what a minister trusted by His Majesty should do?"

"Is this what a pillar of the country and a barrier of states and counties should do?"

Tian Feng questioned Liu Jian like a cannonball, showing his true qualities as a straight man.

Liu Jian now understands why this Tian Feng was gifted to death by Yuan Shao in history.

Maybe he is a wise man, maybe he is a straight talker.

But when he speaks, he really doesn't save face.

This is because there is no one else around Liu Jian, Liu Jian feels awkward.

If you said what you said just now, if you directly questioned him in front of all his subordinates, where would Liu Jian put his face?

Even Liu Jian felt that he couldn't hold his face. Don't you think Yuan Shao would feel ashamed even more?
If Liu Jian didn't know something about Tian Feng's personality, he would actually want to kill him.

For some things, I really don't blame Yuan Shao.

What he said was really annoying.

Liu Jian took a deep breath, and tried his best to suppress the flame that shot up in his heart.

Afterwards, Liu Jian stood up and gave Tian Feng a long salute.

"Mr.'s words made Jianmao suddenly enlightened and ashamed."

Tian Feng couldn't help being surprised that Liu Jian was still able to show such a sincere attitude after seeing him "so upright" spraying Liu Jian.

He was actually ready to be kicked out by Liu Jian.

But I really didn't expect...

Tian Feng also stood up: "Ashamed, ashamed, Tian has lived for more than forty years, and this is the first time he has met someone as humble and courteous as an envoy, Tian Feng is ashamed..."

Liu Jian smiled when he heard what Tian Feng said.

However, Tian Feng continued to say:

"It's just that even though Shijun is humble, Tian Feng still wants to say that Shijun's behavior in Jizhou this time is really disappointing. In fact, Feng can also understand that it is inevitable that he will be complacent when he suddenly becomes a high position at a young age. Don't lose your tongue when you are in the world, and don't forget your form when you are proud! Please make you think about it carefully!"

Liu Jian really wanted to give Tian Feng a kick.

Do you still have the nerve to say that I "don't lose my mouth?"

You see yourself blah blah here.

But Liu Jian sighed lightly and said: "Mr. Yuan Hao, I'm not going to hide it. It's not that I don't want to do things. It's just that I have just arrived in Jizhou and I don't have soldiers and horses in my hands, and I have no one to use. Anmin, however, is also powerless."

Tian Feng said: "If you are in charge of four counties and a population of 200 million people, how can you say that there are no available people?"

Liu Jian said: "Although the people are here, Jizhou just passed through the Zhangjiao Rebellion last year, and the governors' department and all the counties' soldiers and horses were exhausted. Now the main soldiers of the imperial court are attacking Beigong Boyu in Liangzhou. I can't write a letter. Your Majesty, please send troops to help."

Tian Feng said: "Could it be that, as the head of a state, you can't recruit more than ten thousand strong men for use?"

Liu Jian sighed: "Mr. Yuan Hao, you are also a native of Jizhou, so you naturally know that during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhang Jiao invaded the counties and seized the arsenal of warehouses. All the warehouses in the county have been plundered, and now all the supplies from Taicang are used for the Western Expedition. Even if I write to your majesty, there is no money and food supply. My pastoral office is still short of food and money. Please teach me, Mr. Tian, ​​what should I take? Conscription? Actually, I just want to wait until next year, when I have collected enough food and rice, and then deal with other matters.”

Tian Feng sighed: "Emissary, if you just don't have money, why don't you just open your mouth? You have to postpone until now! How much money and grain do you need? Let Tian go to ask the families in Jizhou to ask for it for the envoy." !"

Liu Jian said: "Such a cheeky thing, Jian vowed not to do it!"

What a wise man Tian Feng is.

If Liu Jian really "swears not to do it", he wouldn't tell himself these things here.

The method of playing hard to get, Tian Feng has lived for more than 40 years, so he can naturally see it.

But from Liu Jian's point of view, this is a matter of etiquette, and it is also related to his face as a shepherd of a state.

Tian Feng could only cooperate with him.

So Liu Jian kept pushing.

Tian Feng kept trying to help.

After dragging for a long time like this, Liu Jian finally accepted Tian Feng's kindness "helplessly".

"Since that's the case, then Mr. Liu can only brazenly beg Mr. to raise food and pay for him to build an army."

Tian Feng nodded and said: "Okay, I just don't know how much food the envoy needs to recruit soldiers and generals? I will go and raise money for the envoy."

Liu Jian clenched his fist with his left hand and said to Tian Feng:
"Not much. I did a rough calculation. In the initial stage, it only takes one billion yuan to barely form an army."

　There is another update, but it will be later, the unit is off work late today
