Liu Bei might not have reacted to this kind of thing, but Chen Xi knew it in his mind. Although it was Liu Bei's fault, if he really wanted to say this, it was not Liu Bei's fault. Shi Xie probably knew it even if he couldn't guess it.
The fire in Panyu burned all night and stopped at dawn, while Shi Xie drank tea all night in front of Liu Bei and Chen Xi as if he was using himself as a hostage.
The three of them were speechless all night, because even Chen Xi didn't know how to persuade this old man who was nearly 70 years old and had lost his son today.
Liu Bei was equally speechless. In fact, when Shi Xie personally came to the high platform of the post station and staged a Panyu fire for Liu Bei, Liu Bei understood that Shi Xie had never thought about rebelling. Unfortunately, when individuals form a force, pregnancy is inevitable.
When you can't help yourself.
Shi Xie did his best, but after all, these clans were the support of the Shi family and could not be eliminated or eliminated. Borrowing Chen Xi's help was the most correct choice. It was a pity that Shi Hui could not understand his father's painstaking efforts and did too many things.
What he shouldn't have done was discovered by Liu Bei again.
When Liu Bei found out, his first reaction was that Shi Xie had this idea, and then he looked at what Shi Hui had done in the information. In the spirit of this, even if he couldn't take down Shi Xie, the man behind the scenes, he would first kill Shi Hui, the backbone adviser.
, so Liu Bei killed the opponent directly.
Liu Bei's so-called waiting for Shi Xie to plead guilty was just a joke. In Liu Bei's view, the other party was preparing to turn Jiaozhou into the Jiaozhou of the Shi family, so how could they come to plead guilty? Therefore, when Chen Xi said that Shi Xie would come to plead guilty, Liu Bei replied
Yes, I hope so.
However, when Shi Xie really came and the Panyu fire broke out, Liu Bei understood Shi Xie's thoughts. Shi Xie might really want to protect his son, but Liu Bei thought about the information and the contents of his investigation.
Regarding Shi Hui's records of purging neutral personnel in Jiaozhou and buying, selling and persecuting technical personnel, Liu Bei still felt that he had killed them with one sword.
If he hadn't killed him, the current situation would have made things difficult for Liu Bei. If he didn't deal with his conscience, 80% of the evidence would be insufficient. Moreover, Shi Xie was on the front foot and behind the horse, so Liu Bei didn't say anything. He dealt with Shi Hui, and he couldn't live with it.
Xie, but the national law is ruthless.
The next day, when the sky was dark, Shi Xie, who was kneeling with numb legs, stood up unsteadily, bowed to Liu Bei and Chen Xi, and then walked unsteadily off the high platform.
"Is this solved?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi and said.
"Well, from now on, the scholar governor will be like a lonely minister in Jiaozhou." Chen Xi sighed, "Xuan Degong, don't take it to heart. This matter is not your problem. It is the result of the factional fighting within the scholar family. The scholar governor wants to
What Shi Hui thinks, and what another faction of the Shi family thinks are three different things, and they are in conflict with each other."
Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi confused, and Chen Xi informed Liu Bei of his speculation.
Liu Bei was silent for a while. He was inexplicably disgusted by the information he had obtained, and also a little disgusted by the behavior of the person behind it. However, thinking about the behavior of Sergeant Hui, he felt that the lesser of the two evils, Shi Hui was more disgusting.
.
"These are just some dirty tricks. They can't be brought to the surface. Just pretend that you don't know about it." Chen Xi shook his head and said, "The sales have been preheated for so many days. We will start selling the items tomorrow.
Sell them one by one."
"It seems you don't want to stay in Jiaozhou for a long time." Liu Bei took a sip of herbal tea and sighed.
"After all, the governor of Jiaozhou just died of his legitimate son. Even if the other party knows that the fault is not between you and me and that his son has a way to die, you still have to consider the other party's feelings and leave after solving the problem." Chen Xi replied with a calm expression.
, Shi Xie will still work hard in the future. There is no need to tease each other like this. If there is no legitimate son, won't there be other sons?
What's more, if you look at it from the family's point of view, with your ability, you have not been exposed, you have taken away your competitors with the last blow, and then succeeded in taking over, you can be considered an excellent heir anyway, so even if Chen Xi didn't see that
The name is a bastard who makes a profit, but no matter what, the opponent should be better than the current Shi Hui, the legitimate son of the scholar family.
The next day, the sale officially started. Shi Xie was obviously a little unmotivated. After all, he was an old man close to the age of seventy. He understood everything he should understand. Even if he was confused for a moment, he later understood what was going on, and it was just as Chen Xi thought.
In that case, the matter has already reached this point, and it is not easy to pursue it any further.
So Chen Xi was able to meet the eldest son Shi Yan brought by Shi Xie, a young man who looked quite honest. Chen Xi just nodded and was not interested in going into more details. I think this eldest son was the biggest benefit of this time.
By.
The legitimate son died, the faction that followed Shi Hui was purged, and the eldest son who originally seemed to have no sense of existence was promoted to the throne. How natural and reasonable.
As for the sales, Liu Bei didn't know how he persuaded the local clans and actually raised money to buy several factories with nearly a thousand people. For this reason, many clans were directly split into two pieces. From a certain perspective, this was extremely
It greatly weakened the clan power under the patriarchal system.
But if you think about it carefully, this is actually a win-win situation. At least the elders of the clan did not end up being overthrown by their own young people because of problems with their economic foundation. On the contrary, they bought the young people at a good price. From this aspect
, the elders of these clans indeed played a good card.
Although if this card continues to be played, it means that the clan will be dispersed, but after receiving the money, at least life will no longer be a problem. As for the young men who signed the contract on their behalf, sooner or later they will have to divide the family property with them and rob them.
If the guy who seizes power can be transferred and sent away in this way, from a certain perspective, everything will be fine.
After this, Chen Xi will naturally not pursue the nonsense of these people. Anyway, your clan has fallen apart. As soon as I merge you, after a generation, the local clan will completely become a thing of the past.
As for the young people who signed the contract on their behalf, no matter whether they are well-intentioned or not, I am afraid that they will not have a good sense of these clan elders. However, after all, it is a work contract, not a contract of prostitution, so it is disgusting for these young people.
Zhuang will inevitably acquiesce.
When the time comes to shamelessly take away these young and strong family members, the problem will be almost completely solved, so this time everyone can be said to be happy.
As for the largest processing plant in Qiongya, it is currently being handed over to Shi Xie for custody. After Zhou Yu comes to discuss it, the next step will be taken.
Chen Xi made it clear that it can be sold, but because Zhou Gongjin intervened, you need to negotiate with the other party. To a certain extent, it also made these businessmen realize certain problems. Times are changing, but some things
The child will still not change.
"So many things have happened." When Liu Tong left Jiaozhou by car and headed for Jingnan, he learned that Shi Xie's legitimate son Shi Hui had died at the hands of Liu Bei, and he couldn't help but be a little shocked.
"It's not a big problem, it's been solved." Chen Xi shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter if Shi Hui is dead, a big problem has been solved."
"But I didn't find any particularly sad expression on Shi Xie's face." Liu Tong said a little strangely. She really didn't notice any big changes in Shi Xie.
"Probably because Shi Xie has actually been mentally prepared." Chen Xi shook his head and said, Shi Xie most likely had such a premonition, so even if the unfortunate premonition became true, for Shi Xie
I am also somewhat mentally prepared.
"But, I don't think the other party has changed at all." Liu Tong said seriously.
"There is no need to delve into this kind of issue." Chen Xi squinted his eyes and said, "What we want is the result, not the process. It is best not to investigate the internal reasons."
In fact, there are some other reasons, such as Shiwan, such as that information, but these are meaningless. For Chen Xi, it is enough that the clan in Jiaozhou collapsed naturally under the impact of government power. Others,
He had no interest in finding out.
"Okay, we're going to Jingnan next, right?" Liu Tong asked casually.
"Yes, we are actually a little overtime now. We might not be able to go back to Chang'an during the Chinese New Year. Although there is nothing going on in Jingzhou and Yuzhou, we definitely need to visit. What's more, there are trading cities in Jiangling and Nanyang. This is
A place we must go to." Chen Xi sighed and said. He originally thought that the Eastern Patrol could return to Chang'an on time, but now it seems that there is some trouble.
"Don't even think about sending me back, I haven't finished transferring it yet." Liu Tong would have just paid it back at other times, but at this time, he seemed very shrewd.
"I didn't say I'd send you back. What I meant was that we need to inform you that the meeting will be postponed." Chen Xi said helplessly, "According to our current situation, when the meeting is held at the beginning of the year, we will definitely still be in Jingzhou. Unless we are just watching the show, otherwise the two of us will
Not even a month is enough.”
"Can the meeting be postponed?" Liu Tong was surprised that such an operation was still possible.
"Okay, you won't go back, so we can only postpone it." Chen Xi thought about it and thought it would be better to throw the blame to Liu Tong. It is not their fault anyway.
"Hey, hey, hey, what you said is as if I have gone back and you are still hanging out, so the meeting can be held. I remember that the second five-year plan will be launched this year, right?" Liu Tong said rather dissatisfied,
This court meeting is a relatively comprehensive one that very few people will come to.
Families like the Yong family who stayed at home all came here.
Although there are various reasons, a large part of the reason why the Yong family sent Yong Kai over is that the sixth year of Yuanfeng means the second five-year plan, and Chen Xi will definitely describe the work of the next five years in an outline.
, listen to it more or less and be mentally prepared.
However, Central Asia did not stop this year. The famous founding generals of Sassanid Persia began to swell rapidly after receiving blood transfusions from Kushan, and then the fat on the bodies of the aristocratic families turned into tendons.
