Compared with the situation in Jizhou, Yuzhou where Yuan Shu went to, although the overall situation also made people feel desperate for the bureaucracy, it was much easier for Yuan Shu to deal with it than Liu Zhang and Liu Ye, because the situations of the three were completely different.
.
"Your dear Mr. Yuan is back, little brother, your melons look good, let me take a bite." Yuan Shu drove over from Nanyang and entered Yuzhou. He saw local farmers planting melons in the fields and reached out.
He turned his head and greeted the other person hey hey.
Regardless of whether the other party recognized it or not, Yuan Shu reached out and patted the round melons planted in his field. After patting them for a while, he felt that when he photographed a ripe one, he had to pick it.
But at this time, the old farmer who was weeding in the field, who looked much older than Yuan Shu, had already recognized that it was Yuan Shu, stopped planting the field, and ran over quickly.
"Mr. Yuan, don't eat that one. It's not sweet and not yet ripe. There are good melons in the ground." The old farmer recognized Yuan Shu and quickly greeted Yuan Shu. Can Yuan Shu tell the difference between raw melon eggs and ripe melons by photographing them? That's nonsense.
, he doesn’t have this skill. He just takes a picture when watching other people buying and selling, and he just follows suit and pretends to have learned it.
"Ah? Isn't this ripe?" Yuan Shu pulled the vine of the cantaloupe and asked with some confusion. He didn't have Si Niang's ability to tell whether the melon was ripe, so he could only rely on feeling.
"Unripe is better, underripe is better, this is ripe." The old farmer picked a big, round cantaloupe from the side and took it over. "This one is sweeter too."
Yuan Shu took the melon, put his head on it, and started knocking, pretending that he understood, and after knocking for a while, he asked, "Will this melon stay ripe?"
"It's definitely cooked, it's definitely cooked, just feel free to eat it." The old farmer said happily.
Yuan Shu was not polite and killed the melon in a few strokes. Then he and Man Chong, who got off the car, ate the melon together. While eating, they commented on the melon and then asked some random questions.
The old farmer knew what to answer. After all, the most arrogant thing Yuan Shu did in Yuzhou was to gather the people of Runan, burn the IOUs and land deeds, and then perform a big show for more than ten days and set up flowing water mats. It was precisely because of this
Many tenants who rented the Yuan family's land were able to become ordinary free citizens.
Later, when Yuan Tan contributed money and Yuan Shu exported his talents, except for the Xun family and Chen family who ran away early, Yuan Shu was present when other families in Yuzhou burned their certificates, so the people of Yuzhou were quite familiar with Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu was arrogant and arrogant, but
Again, he treats the people as cattle and sheep, and himself as a dog. In fact, there is really nothing to say.
Therefore, the people of Yuzhou have a good impression of Yuan Shu. After all, Yuzhou has not experienced the plague in this life, so there is no such thing as Yuan Shu's lack of money and tax increases, so it is considered a good thing for you and me. Finally, Yuan Shu made another big move, and the people of Yuzhou
I was very impressed with Yuan Shu.
After all, if a rich man invites a young man from the community who has a mortgage to have a meal, and then forgives the mortgage, and if the rich man asks for help in the future, these people will certainly be willing to help, not to mention that it is not a violation of law and discipline, and
If it is a just matter, then people will definitely be very enthusiastic about it.
"The melon is pretty good." Yuan Shu said with great satisfaction after finishing the meal.
Without saying a word, the old farmer found a few good ones from the ground and picked them out for Yuan Shu, asking Yuan Shu to take them away. Yuan Shu was not polite and found a cloth bag and lifted it into the frame of the bicycle.
After Yuan Shu left, the old farmer found a few copper plates where Yuan Shu had been sitting. He scratched his head and put them away.
"You are very popular in Yuzhou." Man Chong looked at Yuan Shu's proud expression and said strangely. Previously, Man Chong heard Yuan Shu say that as long as he traveled to Yuzhou, he could basically suppress him, and he was still a little confused, but after reading
In that matter, Man Chong felt that Yuan Shu was not a bit capable, but very capable.
"Of course it won the hearts of the people." Yuan Shu said with excitement. Among the biggest things he did in his life, one of the biggest things he did in his life was to kick the box of land deed documents, IOUs, etc. into the brazier. The people of Runan were
Cheers.
In fact, Yuan Shu had read the book and knew that this kind of thing was already a matter of Tian Chen Da Dou coming out of Xiao Dou Jin and Feng Xuan Shi Yi. From a legal point of view, it was a very dangerous matter for a country, but Liu Bei didn't care, and Yuan Shu didn't care.
Just care about having fun.
"Let's go to Runan. When we get to Runan, you can see how popular I am." Yuan Shu said with great confidence.
Man Chong saw another side of Yuan Shu when he entered Yuzhou, but when he entered Runan, Man Chong fully realized what Yuan Shu could do.
When the people of Runan discovered that it was Yuan Shu who had returned to his hometown, they came out to watch in large numbers and stopped doing any work. When Yuan Shu raised his hand to signal, the people of Runan all cheered.
"Come on, I don't have Liu Xuande's low-key habit. In my hometown of Runan, I burned the Yuan family's century-old foundation, and the hearts and minds I gained in return are here, so I generally don't go back to Runan." Yuan Shu looked at the people already here.
The stunned Manchong said arrogantly.
However, Yuan Shu was arrogant. As a legitimate son who had completed the education of an aristocratic family, Yuan Shu knew very well how dangerous his situation was. So when he was building roads in Yuzhou, Yuan Shu discovered that his reputation in the Yuzhou area, especially the Runan area, was really high.
It was too high. It was so high that after Yuan Shu completed the road construction, he basically did not dare to return to Yuzhou.
In the past few years, Yuan Shu had been living in Chang'an every year and rarely returned to Yuzhou.
"So no matter what the Yuzhou bureaucrats do, no matter how they connect, as far as I'm concerned, as long as they violate the promises they made when they were officials, they are nothing more than sandcastles on the beach. All it takes is for me to ride a wave and they will all be finished.
"Yuan Shu said with a certain amount of arrogance.
What is foundation? This is foundation. He Yuan Shu can easily destroy the country's bureaucracy in Yuzhou. As long as he wants to, he can easily crush it.
"So you basically won't go back to Yuzhou?" Man Chong asked tentatively.
"I'm not really a fool, and I also know how dangerous this situation is." Yuan Shu said angrily, "So after the roads in Yuzhou are repaired, I won't go back to Yuzhou very often, just to avoid this kind of thing happening. But
This time, it’s fair and square, so I’m happy to come back.”
Before, Yuan Shu considered the actual situation and in order to avoid causing pressure on Chang'an and unnecessary suspicion, well, he is talking about Liu Ye. That guy can now be said to be a natural defender of imperial power. Who makes him a member of the clan and has the ability?
It is easy to get into books if there are any threats.
Yuan Shu was too lazy to argue with Liu Ye, so he just didn't go back to Yuzhou. But this time, it was Liu Ye who asked him to go back to Yuzhou. No matter how eager the people of Yuzhou were, or how they cheered, no matter how high-profile I Yuan Shu was, it didn't matter.
What happened to me was all caused by Liu Ye.
"Mr. Yuan actually has this kind of thinking." Man Chong said dumbly.
"I already know that you hired your son to be a lawyer. Why do you think I have this kind of thinking?" Yuan Shu said angrily. Man Chong's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Don't mention this to me. I will Several times it felt like I beat my son to death and then had another one.
As a result, you all caused me trouble one by one. In the end, you even married Sun Qian's daughter. Man Chong's mentality was a bit broken.
"Go to the Runan government office first. If you have any questions there, just ask." Yuan Shu said to Man Chong again, what is confidence? This is self-confidence. Yuan Shu believes that no matter what the Runan governor thinks, No matter what kind of tactics he uses, it's all nonsense when faced with Yuan Shu.
So far, the Yuan family in Runan has only moved their family to old people, but even so, as long as the Yuan family in Runan still has people in Runan, it will be an iron curtain shrouding Runan. The bureaucracy wants to There is still a long way to go to destroy this monster.
This thing is equivalent to the hearts and minds of local people, local influence, upper-level influence, the influence of the bureaucracy, plus the combination of external combat power. The local bureaucrats, the old men of the Yuan family are not energetic enough, and they are not hindered. alright.
Yuan Shu did not go back to his hometown in Runan, because after going back, despite how arrogant Yuan Shu is now, Yuan Shu had to kneel down one by one when he got home. The old Yuan family who are currently retiring in Runan are all those who cannot go to Sizhao City, at least They are all old men in their seventies or eighties.
In a dynasty like the Han Dynasty, which ruled the world with filial piety, even if Yuan Shu was more arrogant, he still had to kneel when facing his elders, so Yuan Shu decisively went to handle official business first, and then went to see his grandfather and so on.
When Yuan Shu arrived at the Runan government office, Liu Yi, the prefect of Runan, was waiting at the gate of the government office. It must be said here that it is easy to be an official in Runan, but it is also not easy to be an official. The reason why it is easy to be an official is that if you lie down, then The Yuan family will take over by themselves and handle everything very well. You can just hang around every year and get a good job, just wait for the qualifications to get ahead.
It's hard to say that if you want to do something, if there is a conflict with the Yuan family, you have to find a way to convince the Yuan family, and the Yuan family are all old men, and you can't convince them at all, so whatever the official does, he has to consider the Yuan family. It feels like a super low-income person, and it’s very uncomfortable anyway.
However, Liu Yi is the kind of person who has little desire to fight. When Chen Xi came here, he thought that Liu Yi would get over it in a few years and be transferred to other places. But in fact, Liu Yi has been working in Runan for many years. Yes, he is a bastard.
"What happened in Yuzhou, does it have anything to do with you?" Yuan Shu and Liu Ye were cautious in Jizhou. After Yuan Shu saw Liu Yi, he went straight to the topic. He was not afraid of trouble. Yuan Shu didn't exist in Runan. Things to live in.
"The bureaucrats are collaborating with each other to take over the power vacuum after the departure of the major families. My words, Mr. Yuan should also know, I..." Liu Yi looked at Yuan Shu calmly and said, I am a bastard with a hammer. idea.
