Everyone looked at the head that rolled out of the sack and was still bleeding, and then looked at Liu Tai's body, which was not tall, but gave people a majestic feeling.
At this moment, everyone really didn’t have the courage to raise their heads and object to Liu Tai!
After all, the heads of several clans that showed resistance have been chopped off and placed here.
Liu Tai looked around at everyone and asked Gongshi Yu beside him calmly:
"By the way, there seem to be about twenty families on the list who are not here today, right?"
"Yes...yes!" Gongshi Yu nodded repeatedly after hearing Liu Tai's words, and had to admit that Liu Tai was very powerful at this time.
Liu Tai continued: "Inform these families to hand over 300 acres of land each, and forget about not giving me face today.
Otherwise, if I personally send troops to get it, then this will be the fate of these three families who have been wiped out to pieces."
When Liu Tai said this, he turned to look at everyone and said with a warm face, "I am very grateful to you for your willingness to fund our army's food and grass. It would be better if you could fund some weapons..."
Veins could not help but appear on the faces of the aristocratic families present, and some people even glared at Liu Tai, as if whoever had the courage to take the lead would swarm over and fight with Liu Tai.
The reality is that the people who will come here today are either mature and prudent, or they are smart and intelligent. Let them play tricks and fight among themselves, and they will definitely be self-taught masters.
But for them to risk their lives to face Liu Tai, let alone have the courage to do so. Otherwise, they might choose to ignore Liu Tai like the Song family, and be prepared to wait and see and sit on the fence.
After all, being able to become the head of a family, or a clan elder who comes here, is more or less for the sake of one's own clan.
"Of course, I'm not someone who doesn't know how to reciprocate politely!" Liu Tai looked at the crowd and said,
"When I first came to Yecheng, I didn't have any good gifts to give you.
I can trade the fields sent to you by families who don’t obey me..."
Well, those clan lands haven't been handed over yet, but now, Liu Tai has already changed hands and traded these things.
Everyone present was dumbfounded when they saw this kind of operation. It was the first time they discovered that such an operation existed!
But for Liu Tai, this kind of operation is really not worthy of praise.
After all, the land is actually there, and I have just sold the concept of land ownership.
In contrast, in the contemporary era, the concept of the future can be bought and sold in the modern era, and even more arrogantly, the concept of nothingness can be bought and sold as real currency. Compared with this, what I am doing is nothing, it is not even entry-level. "Liu Xiaowei, what is the price for trading these lands?!" Zhen Jie took the lead and said.
Originally, all the aristocratic families who were ready to sit on the fence and watch Liu Tai's treatment were more or less hurt.
But when they found that they could also pounce on the soup, or rather eat meat, these aristocratic families decisively lost the face they had just attached to their faces.
Why is it that the local clan is so sad when the rabbit dies and the fox is sad? It is precisely because it is a local clan that there are many conflicts!
At this moment, these aristocratic families found that it would be possible to replace Liu Tai in Yecheng.
What benefits did I get when I followed the Jin court? But when Liu Tai came, he not only suppressed his competitors, but now he seems to be giving himself land!
As soon as they figured this out, the aristocratic families present breathed a little heavier, and the temperature in the entire room couldn't help but rise a few degrees.
"I want strong men between the ages of eighteen and thirty. If a strong man joins my army, the clan can take away twenty acres of land!" Liu Tai looked at the crowd and said calmly, "This is what I will give you.
A gift."
Everyone's eyes widened when they heard Liu Tai's words.
They feel like they are just talking in their sleep. One person is exchanging twenty acres of land, and it is mature farmland acquired from other aristocratic families?!
When did the value of human beings become so great? As far as this era is concerned, human life is worthless at all.
"Liu... Lieutenant Liu, are you telling the truth?!" Zhen Jie was trembling when she heard this.
"Yeah!" Liu Tai nodded and said, "However, due to staffing issues, I can't accept as many people as I want, so I'll just see who works harder tomorrow, then I can better choose who to cooperate with. Are you the one?
That makes sense!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" All the aristocratic families nodded in agreement. The land has not been obtained yet, so whatever Liu Tai says will be whatever!
"Mr. Gongshi, tomorrow you will come and make a statistics for the friendly clans and families who have expressed their feelings. It is probably that whoever sends money and grain first will be the first to select the land. Whoever gives more grain will have a larger share of the transaction. After all, I don’t have any hobbies, I just like to follow rules, so I can’t let people who follow rules suffer!”
Liu Tai looked around at everyone and said calmly, "Of course you will be screened when you join our army. You only have one chance. If you are kicked out without selection, don't blame me for being unkind."
The faces of all the clan elders present changed, but they all showed smiling faces to apologize to Liu Tai. Although they felt unhappy, they could not lose their smiles.
Although I haven’t been in contact with Liu Tai for a long time, I at least understand that Liu Tai is not the kind of person who makes trouble out of nothing.
So as long as you follow the rules, I believe Liu Tai will not deliberately embarrass himself, otherwise there would be no need to buy and sell land like this.
Liu Tai waved his hand and said, "If there are no other doubts, please leave now.
All in all, I want food and strong men, and you should also want mature land. I think we can achieve a win-win situation!"
Faced with Liu Tai's kindness, would these clans and families refuse? Or would they dare to refuse?
As for those clans and families who didn’t come, since they didn’t come, they naturally became the meat on the chopping board.
Everyone present understood that if they did not want to become meat on the chopping board and be eaten by others, then they could only eat these benefits and make themselves stronger so that they could refuse in the future.
Moreover, Liu Tai directly opened the army to let his family members in, which gave them an opportunity to catch up with the Huns and Han Dynasty.
It can be said that there is no reason to refuse whether it is from the interests of the clan or the personal development of the clan members!
Again, there are only traitorous individuals, not traitorous classes. Liu Tai's order was not issued to a specific person, but to the entire Yecheng clan and family who were willing to come today.
Although it seems to be Liu Tai's decision, in fact it was discussed and unanimously agreed upon by everyone.
Therefore, all the clans present, large and small, hope that they can take this opportunity to have a bite!
After all, this is land!
Watching these people disperse one by one, either fearing each other or discussing with each other, at least Liu Tai can be sure that there will be no problem with the eight thousand stone of food tomorrow.
At this time, Tian Tian also bowed and said goodbye to Liu Tai. After all, a lot of things happened today, and he also needed to clear out three villages and settle down his begging army.
Especially now that it’s almost October, it’s too late to replant anything.
The only hope is that these three families can have more food, enough to feed the begging soldiers.
"I'm afraid of endless troubles!" Chu Hui couldn't help but sigh behind Liu Tai.
"Will the clan become more powerful, or will my reputation be ruined from now on?" Liu Tai turned his head and asked curiously.
"Although Yecheng has been stabilized with a quick and easy way, neither the Yecheng clan nor Tian Zhen are truly convinced by you.
If you can win, it's easy to say, but if you lose, I'm afraid they will definitely add insult to injury!"
Chu Hui couldn't help but said in a deep voice, "Although this is wartime, if you act like this, you may be in danger of breaking steel easily!"
"Isn't this about replenishing our army's strength to the maximum extent and then solving Wu'an!" Liu Tai shook his head and said,
"At least it's been handled smoothly. As long as I borrow troops to deal with Wu'an, I will continue to be our captain.
What will happen to Yecheng in the future, and what does it have to do with me, a little captain!"
At this moment, Liu Tai was confident and confident. As he said, he was seeking his own government in his position. If Wang Zhang hadn't vaguely revealed that he wanted to capture Wu'an himself, then why would he have come all the way to Yecheng to snowball and just scout around Wu'an?<
/p>
But since I have to work as a forward now, I must do my best to do this job well.
Perhaps hearing the sincerity in Liu Tai's words, Chu Hui asked curiously, "Don't you covet the land in Yecheng? You must know that Yecheng is a big city. It was the capital of Cao Wei. The land around here is very developed." "If you want to drive others to do it, you need to make a transaction after all.
I have no reputation and no rights, so all I can exchange for is these land without capital!"
Liu Tai shook his head and said, "Do you still want me to stay in Yecheng forever?"
When Chu Hui heard Liu Tai's words, he couldn't help but stroke his beard, and had to admire Liu Tai's decision.
The most important thing is that with the completion of this deal, Liu Tai stabilized Tian Tian with force and won over the local clans. Needless to say, from now on, he and others can occupy Yecheng. Because in this process, Liu Tai himself realized the right to seize Yecheng. The most important thing was to form an interest system to safeguard Liu Tai's policies.
If the beggar army represented by Tian Tian wants to settle in Yecheng, it must support Liu Tai. However, if these local wealthy families want to swallow up the territories of the clans around them, they must rely more on the rough rules formulated by Liu Tai.
No matter how crude the rules are, they are still rules. Especially when the rules are supported by everyone for special reasons, the execution of such rules will become quite terrifying, and it will even gradually become the case that local clans and families push this policy forward.
.
It can be said that, at least for a short period of time, the internal conflicts in Yecheng have been suppressed. At most, this internal balance will be somewhat fragile.
If something happens externally or something happens to Liu Tai, it might collapse.
Liu Tai turned his head slightly and said to Taishi Yu: "Mr. Taishi, please do me a favor. Tomorrow you will be responsible for notifying those large and small families who need to hand over their land."
"Do I need someone to go in person?!" Gongshi Yu's mouth twitched, and he felt that he would be stabbed to death by the local nobles.
Even if a certain clan can't bear to think about it and wants to rebel, they might sacrifice themselves as a flag!
"Of course we need it!" Liu Tai said slowly, "They didn't come to slap everyone in the face, but our knife cut them too hard, and I'm afraid they will fight back.
Therefore, we can be merciful and they can only give out two-thirds of the land. As for the other one-third of the land, they can also use strong men to cover it, but they can only exchange for fifteen acres each!"
"They just slapped you in the face!" Gong Shiyu complained in his heart, but he had to admit that Liu Tai took a step back.
These aristocratic families will definitely suffer losses, but even if they retain a little more now, it will be good.
These aristocratic clans cannot struggle at all now. Now that they have handed over their land and men, they still have a chance to turn over.
But if they don't make it this time, what they will have to face is the combination of local gangsters and brutal force.
Needless to say, the villages where the three families were wiped out were a silent warning. Liu Tai was easy to talk to, but he only talked to people who followed the rules.
"I'm curious, why do you want to be accommodating to these people?
You know, even if you open up a wide range of things, they may not be very grateful to you. In the final analysis, it is you who took away their land!"
Chu Hui said, "Strictly speaking, they are your enemies!"
"How could there be so many enemies? As long as they accept the decrees of the Han Dynasty, they are not all Han people!" Liu Tai raised his head and looked at Chu Hui, but he did not flinch at all.
Of course, the real thought in my heart is that with only two forces left in Yecheng, it is too easy for conflicts to suddenly break out due to certain conflicts.
But when the most seriously injured local clans stayed, the situation became different again.
First, they may not be very welcoming to the beggar army, and they may not be very fond of the clan families represented by the Zhen family who have grown up by eating their own flesh and blood.
They are so weak. If they want to survive, they must either find a backer or find someone to join forces, otherwise they are still waiting for death.
So naturally, these three forces in Yecheng may become entangled in the coming days.
For Liu Tai, the three forces restraining each other in Yecheng in a short period of time were enough to ensure the internal balance of Yecheng.
As for ruling, what does it have to do with me as a general? I just need to ensure the stability of the rear and nothing will happen!
As for the way Liu Tai looked directly at Chu Hui, it can only be said that some people believe lies in order to make others believe it, so they believe it first.
"Mr. Taishi will have to register the quantity of grain stored in the warehouse tomorrow. It's up to me to do this kind of thing!" Chu Hui sighed.
"Chu Jijiu, your feet?" Liu Tai asked with concern after hearing Chu Hui's words.
"It's just a fall, not a broken leg!" Chu Hui said coldly, "I came to Yecheng before going to Youzhou for refuge, and I met a few local aristocratic families. Otherwise, if Mr. Taishi went,
I’m afraid there will be unnecessary casualties!”
When Taishi Yu heard these words, his face showed a bit of joy of escaping death. To be honest, he was really scared.
But after all, Chu Hui is from a high-ranking family, so it would be much better for him to communicate than in the past.
"Then leave this matter to Chu Jijiu!" Liu Tai respectfully saluted Chu Hui.
No matter what reason Chu Hui is willing to help him, he must always fulfill his etiquette!
