Chapter 554 Interviewing the Family

After issuing the order, Da Liang's army quickly began to move, and large waves of troops headed towards the two places.

However, such movement did not cause the slightest disturbance. Instead, the focus was on the harvest season in front of them. It was finally time to harvest a new round of potatoes.

Although not many people got potato seeds, there were too many people who were curious about potatoes. Seeing some people who were about to harvest potatoes, they all went up to watch.

After fist-sized potatoes were dug out, the people in the south became excited. It turned out that the legend of potatoes was actually true.

"No wonder the north has always said that one acre of potatoes can feed a family. These potatoes are really high-yielding. One plant can produce five or six, which is a meal for the whole family!"

"Good guy, no wonder some people call it a divine species. How many people can this thing feed?"

"I heard that there are more seeds this year, and the emperor will distribute them to the people for free. In the second half of the year, we can all grow potatoes. That will be really wonderful."

"You only listened to half of it. Although potatoes can be used as a staple food, they are not as good as rice. Your Majesty has found super rice. I will plant this in the fields this year and some potatoes in the mountains."

The common people's faces were all red, and they were not as decadent as after the war. The dynasty change from Daning to Great Liang was completed quietly, without causing them much harm at all.

On the contrary, the strong rise of Great Liang brought them hope.

The people of Daliang were delighted, which made some people in neighboring countries envious. Many people came secretly to check the situation.

Looking at the round potatoes, they were filled with envy, but unfortunately they could do nothing.

A businessman with a bruised and swollen face couldn't help but sigh and said bitterly: "The Emperor of Great Liang is good at everything, but he is too stingy. He will not sell this seed to people from other countries."

He had previously spent money to buy seeds and plant them in his own country, but as soon as he made this request, he was beaten up by a group of people from Daliang.

Forget it, people from the patrol camp later came and took them to the Yamen.

If they weren't really businessmen, they would probably die here by now.

"Hey, this thing is so valuable, no wonder Great Liang won't let it go!" The businessman next to him couldn't help but said with some regret.

Da Liang's seeds are not open to the public. Anyone who trades them privately with foreigners will be severely punished. This is no joke. He doesn't want to offend Da Liang.

Compared to the sadness of these foreigners, Zhang Wanhao and others on the other side had stiff expressions.

Looking at the potatoes being harvested, Lao Zhang couldn't help but shed tears of sadness, and said quietly: "Hey, I also have thousands of acres of potatoes in the south, and now they all belong to the emperor!"

"Nonsense, I have more than 10,000 acres in Jiangling, and now it belongs to the emperor." Liu Kun rolled his eyes at the two of them and said angrily.

Why!

Everyone sighed, they were really sad, working for the emperor was in vain.

Wang Hui rolled his eyes at a few people and said angrily: "Okay, it's just some external possessions, so what does it matter? The emperor spared us our lives, this is better than anything else!"

If your life is gone, why do you need so many potatoes? It's all in vain.

"Damn, you're pretty open-minded, you still have your nephew." Zhang Wanhao said with some envy.

Although the Wang family also suffered huge losses, there is another member of the Wang family, Wang Yunze, who had previously taken refuge with the emperor. This is the only person who is still hanging around in the middle class of Great Liang. He has more hope than others like himself.

Wang Hui rolled his eyes at him and said angrily: "It's just a governor, the emperor wants to change..."

"Huh?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a familiar person walking over, and his eyes lit up. He was actually a member of the Zhang family, a noble family in the north.

Looking at the situation, this is coming for you.

Zhang Wanhao and others also saw them, their eyes suddenly narrowed, and they all looked at the people from the Northern Family unkindly.

Things are changing. In the past, their southern family was the mainstream, but now after being bloodbathed by Li Anlan and his wife, he and others have become remnants, and the north has become the mainstream.

This is really embarrassing.

Seeing people like him coming straight towards him, Zhang Wanhao said coldly: "Zhang Ruohai, what do you want to do, come to see our jokes?"

"Haha, how is that possible!"

Zhang Ruohai looked at Zhang Wanhao and others who looked wary, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, and explained: "Although you have suffered huge losses now, you cannot pose a threat to the emperor at all. On the contrary, our life will be difficult!"

Oh, it’s so uncomfortable!

They originally thought that the northern family could rise up and completely suppress the southern family, and then a powerful person would come to control the situation in Great Liang. However, in the end, the "Family Management Law" was directly thrown down, making them dizzy.

There's no good in this, it's just like a light on my back.

"this?"

Wang Hui and others were stunned at first, and then burst into laughter. It was acceptable to say that their southern family was in ruins. At least this time, the northern family was the most suppressed.

Liu Kun didn't gloat about his misfortune, he just sighed: "Now that the emperor is sweeping the world, your northern family's role is not even as good as the icing on the cake. Naturally, you won't get much benefit. It's good that the emperor didn't liquidate you!"

This kind of fat sheep was not killed. I can only say that the emperor is kind.

"Although there is no liquidation, I feel like I could be slaughtered at any time." Song Yuming said with a wry smile.

The current emperor is too powerful, and the aristocratic families are like tools in his hands. He can kill them whenever he wants. This is very insecure.

Everyone was sighing, it was such a sad day.

Ahem!

Zhang Wanhao coughed twice and said angrily: "Whether you are sad or not is one thing, but why are you looking for us?"

"Hmph, you think I want to see you? I'm here to inform you that Cao Cao, the Minister of Rites, is interviewing all the major families. Everyone must be there!" Zhang Ruoyun glanced at him and said angrily.

Cao Cao has an interview!

Everyone's pupils shrank, and the thing they were worried about finally came. They had to deal with the aristocratic family.

Zhang Wanhao and others, who had been a little relaxed before, suddenly became stiff. Now they have to decide whether they will live or die. It is really heart-wrenching.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Hui said in a deep voice: "Now, it is inevitable. The emperor has not killed us, which means we are still useful. Let's go and see what Cao Cao wants to do with the family!"

"Let's go!"

Everyone nodded, what Wang Hui said was true, and they couldn't care less now.

Without the Emperor of Great Liang’s nod, no matter how many paths there are, they are all dead ends. Only the path of a noble family approved by the Emperor is the only way to survive!
