Damn it, I'm in the garbage book I wrote

Chapter 581 People cannot be idle.

The eldest brother-in-law was a righteous man. Although Xia Lin tried to refuse, he finally ordered someone to send 100,000 taels to Xia Lin when he left Fuliang.

Looking at the 100,000 taels of silver that he got for free, Xia Lin suddenly felt like he had received a windfall.

He held the 100,000 taels of cash in his hand and sat in front of the desk in a daze for a long time.

Looking out from where he lived, the city in front of him was as prosperous as Beijing. Even playing simulation construction games might not be able to depict such a scale of prosperity.

But who could have imagined that the initial start-up capital for all of this was 100,000 taels of silver given by Prince Teng.

Thinking of the embarrassment of having to spend every penny in two, and those guys who started to make money crazily after they became successful and were then punished, Xia Lin couldn't help but feel a little sad.

To be honest, if they can control their desires, they can reach the peak of their lives step by step even if they just wait for seniority.

After seeing the 100,000 taels, the first person Xia Lin thought of was Zhao Da, a name that had not appeared for a long time. He asked about it a few days ago, but learned that Zhao Da had died of illness in Leizhou many years ago.

It’s really sad to say that the old man could have enjoyed his old age in peace.

"People." Xia Lin stretched and stopped thinking about anything else.

The days passed peacefully. After about a month and a half, intelligence came from the front that Liu Heita and Dou Jiande had started fighting, and Li Mi also sent troops to Zhuozhou to prepare to attack Liu Heita.

Xia Lin found this news ridiculous, because in history, Liu Heita was really powerful. He fought against Li Shimin in the Battle of Mingshui. He not only killed Luo Shixin, but also forced Li Shimin to drown his seven armies before he barely won. If Liu Heita had more stable logistical support or more time to integrate the forces of Hebei, the outcome of the Battle of Mingshui would be hard to predict.

The most famous event in the entire early Tang Dynasty was the Liu Heita Rebellion. At that time, he fought against heaven and earth, and now it is inevitable that he would appear in the world situation.

And the current situation is even more complicated. I am afraid that the speed of his rise will definitely exceed everyone's expectations.

Liu Heita's appearance disrupted the entire situation in Yanzhao. Dou Jiande and Li Mi had already begun to mobilize. No matter whether Liu Heita wins or loses this time, no matter where he goes, the situation in the entire Central Plains will undergo earth-shaking changes.

Xia Lin looked at the spheres of influence marked by different colors on the map with a solemn expression. The side effects of Li Yuan's enthronement finally showed up. The entire north was in real chaos, and the situation in the south also changed. Scattered warlords appeared one after another. In name, they obeyed the orders of the Great Wei, but in fact, they had already formed their own circles.

It has become the norm to obey orders and not announcements, just waiting for a war to come and turn the world into a mess.

Li Yuan's new Xianyang was still under construction, so it was no wonder that they would attack Li Yuan at this time, but he had no other choice. Once the construction was stopped, the economic liquidity of Li Tang and Tian Wei would instantly drop to the bottom, and the financial crisis of the seventh century would be no joke.

"There is Li Shimin in Sichuan and Chongqing, Li Yuan in the northwest, the major families in the Central Plains, Yanzhao has already broken away, and there is Goguryeo and Shiwei in the northeast. The chieftains and warlords in Yunnan and Guizhou are also entangled together. There is also Zhou Guiwu in Lingnan, and there is also Tubo on the plateau." Xia Lin looked at the spheres of influence on the map and suddenly laughed: "Oh yes, there is also a Cao Han on the grassland. What kind of chaos is this?"

"If the general hadn't been stationed in Jiangnan Road, the south of the Yangtze River would have been as chaotic as the north."

The lieutenant general beside him also sighed heavily: "It's difficult for us to even mediate at the moment, as one move could affect the entire body."

"Then don't move." Xia Lin took the pencil from his ear and drew a few circles on the map: "Send people out to collect the people. Hang the Xia flag along the way. Attacking the migrating people is considered as declaring war."

"Order!"

Then he continued to draw a few more circles: "Send someone to tell Li Shimin to find a way to send troops to suppress Yunnan and Guizhou. Don't let them cause chaos. Oh, and use the geographical advantages of Shu to make him be careful of Tubo."

"Order."

Finally, he tapped the land of Yanzhao with his pen: "The war here is intense. Inform all parties that I don't want to see anyone massacring the city. If anyone massacres the city, the Po Lu Army will dispatch troops immediately." "Understood."

His order came out quickly from the camp, and the first place to arrive by express horses was the battlefield of Yan and Zhao. Li Mi, Liu Heita and Dou Jiande all received the same message, that is, they were not allowed to massacre the city.

Moreover, he told them not to massacre the city in an imperative tone. Were they angry? Of course they were angry. We were all warlords. Why did Xia Daosheng dare to order people like this?
But at this critical moment, they have really provoked the Bulu Army, and they will have to bear the consequences. After all, whoever is attacked by the Bulu Army now will not only be attacked by the Bulu Army, but there will definitely be people who want to take advantage of the opportunity to eat their flesh.

So they held their noses, endured the nausea, and replied to Xia Lin with a "I understand" sentence.

Only Liu Heita wrote a very long letter to Xia Lin, and the entire content of the letter was to persuade Xia Lin to become emperor.

"If you become emperor, I will serve you at your service."

Xia Lin burst out laughing when he saw the content of the reply. Sure enough, this guy has always been like this, just like the three-surnamed slave back then...

Xia Lin naturally would not respond to such a letter, but he did not expect that he would receive a letter from Emperor Jingtai without replying.

Emperor Jingtai was speaking earnestly in his heart. He reminisced about the late emperor together, called Xia Lin "brother" all the time, and recounted in detail the many things that happened when he met Xia Lin that year.

To put it bluntly, he was afraid that Xia Lin would also raise his own flag, because under the current situation, if Xia Lin rebelled, the Wei Dynasty would be really finished.

But in the final analysis, Emperor Jingtai was still that suspicious person. He never trusted Xia Lin. No, it should be said that he never trusted anyone except himself.

Maybe it was his personality. Xia Lin now felt that his decision to return to Jiangnan Road was absolutely correct. Instead of feeling uncomfortable with each other, it would be better for them to part ways and become pen pals.

"Forget it." Xia Lin put the letter aside and shook his head helplessly: "Let's go drink."

However, there are not many people who can shake Fuliang now. The original gangs have almost been dismantled, and the only one who can say a few words is the fifth brother.

The fifth brother is also a man who is not good at speaking. When he drinks with him, he pours two bottles of wine and then starts talking nonsense...

So Xia Lin was not very willing to drink with him, and finally he went to find his second brother. His second brother had been under house arrest here recently, and his eldest brother-in-law asked Xia Lin to keep an eye on him and not let him go out into the world.

"Second brother!"

Xia Lin called out from outside the house, and the second brother's flying head popped out, his eyes sparkling with gold: "What's up, brother? Want to go out and play?"

"Change your clothes!"

"Okay!" The second brother changed into scholar's clothes like a whirlwind, then supported himself on the two-meter-high wall with one hand and jumped out in a flash.

Xia Lin couldn't help but frown when he looked at the scholar's suit that looked like a sexy COS costume on him.

"Brother, this dress is too tight, isn't it?"

"What's wrong?" The second brother looked down at himself and said, "You all dress like this."
