Chapter nine hundred and fifty sixth strange morning
What Ma Zhou is worried about is that as the focus of Dream Group gradually shifts to Hu County, the population of Hu County will increase. By then, Hu County will become extremely prosperous. If all the business in the county is handed over to the court,
Ministers, this is a huge loss.
Hearing this, Du He waved his hands indifferently: "Old Ma, even if we pick up all the businesses in the county, how much money can we make every month? I don't care about this small amount of money. Besides, I
Sending all the business in the county away is not a whim, but a deliberate decision, as you will know later!"
"Nothing left?"
"Of course, I keep my word." Du He said with a smile.
Early the next morning, people began to arrive from Chang'an.
These people all came from the residences of the ministers of the DPRK.
The purpose is also very simple, to acquire shops, houses, and land.
Originally, Du He wanted to sell some land outside the city, but everyone didn't want it.
What they want is the houses and land in the city, because they can make money here.
As for the land outside the city, it is mostly barren land that no one wants at all.
Du He could only lament that these are all a bunch of snobs.
…
Amidst the melodious sound of bells and drums.
The courtiers entered the Tai Chi Hall one after another.
The morning of a new day has begun again.
Changsun Wuji, Wang Gui and others who had returned from Hu County appeared in the main hall again.
When Li Er saw everyone, he asked: "My dear friends, if you go to Hu County to inquire about the land enclosure movement, do you have any clues? I heard that Du He was the mastermind of this matter, and the King of Shu and the Crown Prince were also involved. If so,
The evidence is conclusive and I will never condone it."
If the courtiers objected strongly and the people's voices were too loud, even though Li Er couldn't bear it, he would have to punish Du He.
Moreover, in his opinion, punishing Du He was not the purpose, the purpose was to stabilize the Tang Dynasty.
The land enclosure movement sounds very scary. All you need to do is draw a circle on the map, and the land belongs to the Huxian Development Company. Doesn't that mean that if someone draws a circle in the future, Datang will belong to him?
His Majesty Li Er is the biggest landlord in the world!
He was even a little afraid of this enclosure movement.
He must curb this momentum in time to avoid threatening his rule even in the slightest.
Wang Gui was the first to stand up: "Your Majesty, we have thoroughly investigated the land enclosure movement. First of all, all the nobles and merchants in Hu County voluntarily sold their land, left Hu County, and settled in other places. They were not oppressed.
, the so-called Prince Consort Du drove away the nobles and merchants with a whip is simply nonsense... Secondly, some people said that Huxian County had already become an empty city, and people were panic-stricken. But when I went to Huxian County, I discovered that,
This time, it was a completely normal land sale. As soon as the nobles and merchants from Hu County left, people from other places bought the land and houses. In less than a day, all the shops were opened, and the streets were crowded with people.
There has not been any bad influence... Finally, the previous ministers and others were worried that all the nobles leaving Hu County might cause panic among the nobles in other places. In fact, after so much time, no one cared about this matter.
, Hu County is still the same Hu County, and the people are still the same people, there hasn’t been any trouble, it’s just that some of the people living there have changed!”
What?
The other ministers were all stunned.
Even Li Er looked confused.
But Changsun Wuji stood up again and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Wang is right. Previously, some people were bold and said that such a large-scale relocation of nobles would affect the people of Hu County and there might be chaos. Ke Chen and others personally
When I arrived in Hu County, I found that the people were not affected at all. The people of the Tang Dynasty were all sensible and etiquette people. They did not take this mere change to heart at all. Now, this land enclosure movement has ended.
Your Majesty, please don’t take this matter seriously.”
"I second the proposal!"
"Seconded!"
The ministers who had been to Hu County all stood up and couldn't help but say.
Li Er was so surprised that he opened his mouth wide.
Is this matter solved so easily?
Last night, he went to bed very late.
I have been thinking about how to properly resolve this matter, which should not only prevent the enclosure movement but also not dampen Du He's enthusiasm.
He had been depressed about this matter for a long time.
Who knew that the result would be like this.
Li Er didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and announced: "My dear friends, since this is the case, there is no need to mention this matter again."
The other ministers were confused. It can be seen that His Majesty Li Er has spoken, and no one dares to seek death.
Situ, Sikong, the left and right prime ministers, and the bosses of the six ministries all supported this land enclosure movement. Looking at the central government, no one dared to stand up and oppose it.
…
Thirty miles to the northwest of Hu County, in a mountain valley, a group of troops was stationed here, forming a large-scale camp.
At dusk, there is very little smoke.
The sighs of the old man, the cries of the children, the sobs of the women, the neighing of the horses, the curses of the men... all merged into one.
A carriage pulled by two horses stopped at the edge of the woods. The carriage creaked and swayed, and the sounds of men and women playing cards could be heard from inside.
It took about a stick of incense to pass by before the noise stopped.
The carriage curtain opened.
Liang Kai jumped down and straightened his clothes.
Inside the carriage was his recently married concubine, who was only sixteen years old. She was so beautiful that she was so enchanting that she couldn't extricate herself.
No, in such a tense situation, he quietly took his concubine and the wife of the wife on his back to the woods to play two games of cards.
That feeling... tsk tsk!
However, he suddenly felt something was wrong around him, it was too quiet.
Swish.
As soon as he raised his head, he was stunned.
There were no less than twenty people gathered in front of him.
They are all heads of various clans.
The young one is only in his twenties, and the old one is already sixty years old.
Liang Kai was surprised and said: "You..."
"Master Liang, we all heard clearly!"
"Just now the curtain of the carriage was blown open by the wind, and I saw it. The curtain was so white, and the pillow was so big!"
"Yeah, tut tut..."
"..."
Everyone was talking and commenting.
Some say he is great.
Some say his concubine is pretty!
Liang Kai almost spurted blood.
He said angrily: "You guys are really bastards, I'm ashamed to be associated with you!"
Yang Cheng, the head of the Yang family, was not happy. He stared at Liang Kai and said, "Master Liang, this is your fault. Now, everyone is nowhere to be found. As you said, within two days, the court must have an order. We have nothing to do with it."
You can get back the land and house without spending any money, but three days have passed and there is no news. Everyone is anxious, but you are happy here with that bitch. Do you really think that we are fools? Is that possible?
No, do you want everyone to stay in this barren mountainous place for the rest of their lives?"
As soon as Yang Cheng opened his mouth, everyone started to accuse Liang Kai.
