Guoyuan and the others couldn't believe it when they heard these astronomical figures.
Is this how powerful Da Gan is? A few businessmen actually have more money than their entire Qingzhou Prefecture. It is impossible for Caozhou Mu to spend so much money!
Cui Yidao: "We are gathering together to discuss the glass factory! It is said that Jizhou Glass Factory can earn 1.5 billion this year, and they have also made glass mirrors that are hundreds of times better than bronze mirrors. It is not possible to earn 3 billion next year. Impossible! It can be said that this is an inexhaustible gold mine! So we people gathered here to discuss and see if we can raise a sum of money to also occupy a share in the glass factory!"
Wang Gaidao: "Although the glass factory makes money, we still want the shares of the glass factory. I'm afraid it's impossible. When good things happen in these years, Lei Gong will only think about the merchants in Hebei and the powerful families in Youzhou and Xiliang!" "
Then he ridiculed: "They defend the border for the country and are the heroes of the world, but we, the nobles in Hebei, are born with original sin!"
Although Wang Gai's tone was mocking, it was actually envy, jealousy and hatred.
Although Xu Wei hates noble families, it is not a one-size-fits-all approach. The wealthy noble families in Youzhou and the family cadres who have contributed to border defense will also absorb them. The same is true for the powerful people in Xiliang. They are originally the rebellious people of the Han Dynasty. Speaking of it, they are still the same as Lei Gong. Along the way, Daqian's treatment of the noble families in Xiliang mainly focused on killing chickens to scare monkeys. Except for the most evil families, the rest were absorbed into the Daqian system!
And the powerful people who merged with the state were obviously from the frontier. They had shed blood and sacrificed their lives to protect the people of the Han Dynasty over the years, but they didn't expect that Lei Gong actually classified them as the nobles of Hebei. This made Wang Gai and the others go to reason, they just I can watch helplessly as Youzhou and Xiliang, who used to be brothers in need, join forces.
And although they clearly didn't get any benefits, they were inexplicably put into the same category as the noble families in Hebei.
Cui Yi said: "Making money is secondary. Even if we lose money, we can accept it. Now we just ask Lei Gong to stop discriminating against us and allow our family members to take part in the imperial examination and enlist in the army! If the ban can be lifted, even if we lose everything, I’m willing to wait too!”
Families like theirs are not short of money at all. They may not have the ability to get 80 billion, but they can still make it together with one or two tens of billions.
Moreover, although Cui Yi and others were released by Lei Gong, they lived in fear all day long. Later, Da Gan obtained bonds, and they did not even need to copy the bonds when they ransacked their homes. Therefore, in order to save their lives, wealthy people like Cui Yi also bought many bonds. They just thought they were paying tens of billions to save their lives. But they didn't expect that these bonds could actually earn more than one billion in interest every year!
It is because they can get these interests that they can stay in Hebei with peace of mind. At least Lei Gong is reasonable. If they exchange these bonds for glass factory stocks, it will be more profitable for them! If Lei Gong can lift the restrictions on them ban, then they would really make a lot of money.
These powerful clans all know that money is just an external possession, and only power is the most powerful force in the world. The merchants of the Han Dynasty were slaughtered like pigs by Dong Zhuo. Do you think Dong Zhuo dares to imitate Lei Gong? Kill all the noble families in the world!
Liu He looked at Guoyuan and the others and said: "Actually, you need to buy the shares of the glass factory more. The current situation in Jizhou, even if I didn't go there, is still as dangerous as a goose egg, otherwise you wouldn't have come to Jixian to find a solution. Got it!"
"But I can tell you here, don't think too much about luck. The land will definitely not be saved. If there are any children in the family who do evil and commit all kinds of evil, they should be separated and exterminated quickly to prevent these people from affecting their family, and then No matter how much you try to buy more Daqian bonds and stocks, no matter how much treasures, gold and silver you have in your hands, you will not be able to keep these treasures when Daqian's army breaks through Qingzhou, but if you have a lot of money left in your hands The bonds and stocks, Lei Gong also wants to save face, I'm sorry to rob your house like this, otherwise, it will be no different from a robber who robbed it openly!"
"So for you, gold and silver are not wealth. Dagan's bonds and stocks are the real wealth. The reason why we people can recover so quickly is also thanks to the Dagan bonds we bought. Otherwise, If we do, not only will we lose our power, we won’t even be able to keep our current wealthy life!”
Kong Yu said angrily: "It's not because of people like you that Lei Gong is so invincible. You are simply helping the evil deeds. Originally Lei Gong still had a few years to repay these debts, but just because you supported Lei Gong like this, he Only then will it be possible to pay off these debts. If there are really no debts, Lei Gong will definitely continue to attack our Qingzhou next year!"
Xian Yufu saw Kong Yu being so angry and said, "Then what are you doing in Youzhou? Do you want to do that kind of thing that specializes in Yu Rang?"
He's already coming to Da Gan to beg for mercy, but he still can't tell right from wrong. There are all such disciples in the noble family, no wonder he can't defeat Lei Gong.
Guoyuan immediately said: "Of course not, we came to Youzhou also to find a way to reconcile with Lei Gong!"
The wealthy clans in Qingzhou really couldn't fight anymore. Daqian wanted to divide their fields. They divided the fields in advance to protect themselves. Moreover, Lei Gong was divided into 30 acres. In order to win over the people, they divided the fields into hundreds of acres. They did it even more thoroughly than Daqian. Not only did he cut himself, but he cut deeper than Dagan!
In the past, the noble families in Qingzhou liked to talk about mysteries and Taoism. Zheng Xuan's school gathered the world's talents, and the martial artist Qiu Ba was the person they looked down upon the most.
But now Kong Rong has to learn martial arts and art of war every day, and the noble families in Qingzhou are sending their own children to the army. They have lost their land, and military power is the only thing they can control. There are no noble families in Qingzhou now. They are all warlords.
After Cao Cao's reforms, Qingzhou had an army of 200,000, and the wealthy nobles in Qingzhou even thought they could fight against Lei Gong!
But this year's Central Plains War has completely awakened their dreams. Although they have a large army of 200,000, they are useless against Daqian's million-strong army. Their children suffered countless casualties in the face of Daqian's army, and they can only escape. Back in Qingzhou, they spent a huge amount of money and even mortgaged their ancestral property to form an army, but they were defeated by Da Gan.
After Cao Cao, the herdsman of Qingzhou, came back, he even demanded that they use all their property to cast bronze cannons to resist Thunder God, otherwise Qingzhou would fall. He threatened them with such words.
They have lost all their land in order to resist the Thunder Lord, and all their children have become warriors in order to defeat Da Qian, and now even their last family property has to be put on the gambling table. If they win, they can recover everything, but if they lose, they will have nothing.
What these families with a history of thousands of years fear most is that there is no way out, and what they dare not do the most is risk everything to gamble.
Because the world belongs to them, why should they risk everything to gamble?
Ordinary people have nothing, and many of them don't even own their lives. So when the people rebel, they lose their shackles, but they have the opportunity to gain the whole world.
