Zhuge Liang, who was in the Southern Barbarians, didn't know that the two scheming villains Zhang Zhao and Zhang had thrown a big trouble package at him. At this time, he was dealing with the population transfer task arranged by Yuan Shu.

The situation in the southwestern countries is extremely complicated, and the situation among the various families is even more intricate. Often a small country or tribe has several families secretly controlling it. This is not because they do not control the power of a country alone, but to avoid risks and for the future.

Gather together and strengthen your own power.

After all, not all aristocratic families have family backgrounds like the Xun family and the Lu family. For these small aristocratic families, which account for the majority, controlling a small country is simple, but it is meaningless. The strength of a small country is too weak. If there is a conflict between the aristocratic families in the future,

How can we resist if we attack and annex each other? Only by holding together can we have the power to protect ourselves, and only by holding together can we better utilize resources.

If the territory and population of ten small countries and one large country are almost the same, the national power that the latter can produce will definitely exceed the former several times. The centralized utilization and deployment of resources can greatly expand production, which is inevitable.

But because of this, the situation in the southwest countries has become more and more complicated. Just like in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the princes of various countries are related by marriage. The mother of the king of Qin is the sister of the king of Chu. Recruits were recruited from various small countries and tribes

The interests involved by the people are extremely complicated.

Zhuge Liang didn't have the time to argue with the aristocratic families over these minutiae. He directly took action from all over the world, instead of starting from various countries. Instead, he went to various aristocratic families.

"Everyone must know that Cao Cao has been defeated. Our lord has captured Qingzhou and Xuzhou. The general trend of the world has basically been established, and what you expect is not far away. But now Qingzhou is extremely empty due to the war.

We need to mobilize a lot of manpower, and now we need your full help."

Looking at the heads or spokesmen of various aristocratic families who had gathered here under his notification, Zhuge Liang, who had always been calm, couldn't help but feel an uncontrollable excitement in his heart. He took a deep breath to suppress this feeling, and Zhuge Liang said straight to the point calmly.

.

"Your Majesty, if you have any needs, I will serve you voluntarily. Please let me know." Lu Kang, the head of the Lu family, stood up from his seat with a cane, coughed lightly and said directly.

He represents the attitude of all the aristocratic families present. Although the people here are all leaders of the best aristocratic families in the world, they really don't dare to be presumptuous in front of Zhuge Liang, a ninth-grade official.

In short, Zhuge Liang is now in charge of all the southwestern countries, and even they have to listen to him. Zhuge Liang may not be able to directly punish them, but when he is in the middle of the referee, he is slightly biased to one or two, which is enough to make them

It's a stretch. And with Zhuge Liang's intelligence, how could he not make full use of this method when he now has control of the general trend?

To put it further, they do not want to offend Zhuge Liang, the future prime minister of the country. After all, whether they can achieve their wish in the future depends on the attitudes of Yuan Shu and Zhuge Liang.

Yuan Shu is unwilling to deal with the aristocratic family now because it will hurt his muscles and bones, and the gains outweigh the losses. However, this does not mean that Yuan Shu cannot control the aristocratic family. On the contrary, the current aristocratic family is simply submissive to Yuan Shu, because Yuan Shu will not

It's easy to deal with them as a whole, but it's still very easy to deal with some of them.

As far as the matter of aristocratic families going out after the unification of the world in the future, if Yuan Shu cuts out a small number of candidates, other aristocratic families will definitely not unite with these people and harden Yuan Shu. They will definitely take pleasure in others' misfortune and add insult to injury.

It was too late for him to be happy that some of his competitors were missing. It was precisely because the aristocratic families had this kind of self-awareness that they had no intention of resisting Yuan Shu.

"Everyone here is the person in charge of each family, so I won't say too many lies. This time, His Majesty asked me to transfer at least 200,000 young men from the southwest countries to Qingzhou, and now the southwest countries

The situation is complicated, and I can't make specific assignments. Therefore, I can only trouble all the family heads here. You know each other best, and you can make your own decisions on how to distribute these two hundred thousand young people. But

I can only give you two days. After two days, the specific indicators assigned to each family must be agreed upon and sent to me." Zhuge Liang said unceremoniously.

Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, the heads of the families below had different expressions, and some started talking in small groups, while smart people like Lu Kang, who had been well prepared, sat still and stood there.

Zhuge Liang didn't care. He gently shook the feather fan in his hand and waited quietly. Soon, the discussion in the field gradually subsided.

"Do you have any questions?" Zhuge Liang asked.

"Do you only need 200,000 young men?" Unsurprisingly, Lu Kang was the first to speak.

After hearing this, Zhuge Liang smiled slightly: "Of course, the more, the merrier."

For smart people, there is no need to say more. As soon as Zhuge Liang said this, everyone present understood the meaning of this sentence, and it was time to show their loyalty again.

"My Kuai family would like to have five thousand more young men!" Almost as soon as Zhuge Liang finished speaking, the person in charge of the Kuai family immediately stood up and said loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Mi, the head of the Qin family, also reacted. His heart trembled. He gritted his teeth and stood up and said loudly: "My Qin family will contribute 10,000 yuan!"

The last time Yuan Shu selected the top ten aristocratic families and excluded the Qin family, he has always regretted it. Now that this choice has appeared again, he will naturally not make the same mistake again. If he does not show his loyalty, the Qin family may fall.

He came from a first-class family.

The thoughts of everyone present were similar to Qin Mi's. Let the king know that the loss he suffered was not really a loss, but a huge profit. What they invested today would definitely be doubled in the future. However, they still suffered a lot from Qin Mi's move.

Surprise, ten thousand young men, Qin Mi is really a generous person! This is simply unimaginable among some small aristocratic families. Although it is possible to do it, it will definitely hurt the vitality.

Seeing the shocked and shocked eyes of everyone present, Qin Mi straightened his back. Although he was heartbroken, he breathed a long sigh of relief. He finally showed off the majesty of the Qin family. Especially when he saw Zhuge Liang's approving eyes, he felt

I am even more happy that this wave is not a loss.

Among the people present, only the Qin family has this confidence. Those who are closer to the water come first, Yizhou is the closest place to the southwest countries, and it is also the core of trade with the southwest countries. The Qin family, as the largest group in Yizhou,

The strength of the aristocratic family is not just blown away. Among the aristocratic families present, the Qin family may not be ranked in the top five in terms of strength, but when it comes to the power and population of the southwest countries, there is really no one in the Qin family who can.

Comparable.

After operating in Yizhou for so many years, how could he not have some thoughts on the southwest countries? In the past, he looked down on these barbarian countries, and the secret contacts were just to leave a back-up to control Yizhou. However, this back-up was not used for the rebellion.

, now it has a miraculous effect that makes the Qin family extremely excited, giving them an absolute advantage.

But taking the advantage does not mean that he can sit back and relax. So many aristocratic families are eyeing this piece of fat. Qin Mi has been forced to give up a lot of interests, so he urgently needs the support of Da Chu. Otherwise, if he falls out

If he belongs to a first-class family, then he will completely become a piece of fat in the eyes of many aristocratic families.
