One hundred and twenty-nine smoke and rain dissipate
Heaven's movement is always constant, and it will not exist for Yao, nor will it perish for Jie. These are the words that the founding emperor of Yao expressed when he broke away from the previous dynasty Jie and came to the capital. It has been recorded by historians and has been handed down to this day. Among them, the theory of the rise and fall of dynasties, especially the rise and fall of dynasties.
praised by the world.
"There will be no chaos in Jiangzhou, and the country will be safe." This emperor said to his children and grandchildren.
Within the territory of Dayao, Jiangzhou was the most prosperous among the sixteen states. It accounted for nearly 23% of the treasury tax every year. The silk, silk and rice produced were enough to support the people of several states. Therefore, Jiangzhou strived to stabilize it.
This explains the responsibilities of successive feudal officials in Jiangzhou.
Emperor Yao had always been very concerned about Jiangzhou. Whether it was the silver used in the royal treasury for fun or the military supplies used to conquer the barbarians and expand their territory, half of them came from Jiangzhou, so the other fifteen states all came from Jiangzhou.
But if there is chaos, only in Jiangzhou, the people in the capital will have trouble sleeping and eating.
Therefore, the rivers and lakes of Jiangzhou were unified by Songfeng Mountain, and there would be less turmoil. All the kings and ministers of Yao were happy to see this happen.
The winter of the fourth year of Emperor Lie's reign finally came to an end after more than 100,000 people in Huisu and Suzhou were turned into white bones due to hunger. When the first spring rain fell, grain trucks allocated for relief from the treasury began to drive into Huisu and Suzhou in a continuous stream.
In various parts of the state, coupled with the imperial edict to exempt and exempt the two states from taxes for three years, it is only a matter of time before the food production of the two states is restored to its original state.
As for Jiangzhou, which had the largest influx of hungry people, not only could taxes not be reduced, but they had been increased by 20%. The governor wrote three memorials and sent them to the capital to denounce the shortcomings of this move, but there was no news.
That person's attitude was very obvious. How to raise taxes is something that you, the governor of Jiangzhou, have to work hard on. I want to make an expedition to the north. If the army is short of food and grass...
I'll take your head as a counterweight.
The governor had no choice but to burn incense and pray to Buddha to pray that this year's harvest would be better than last year's.
Jiangzhou Jianghu has gained a lot of new atmosphere since it was unified by Songfeng Mountain. First, Gao Xu, the mountain owner, and now the co-owner of Jiangzhou Jianghu, invited the leaders of Jiangzhou's large and small Jianghu sects to come to the gate of Songfeng Mountain. The matter of discussion was actually with
Related to carving up the industrial sites left by Yanyu Tower.
Could it be that there is some deceit in it? If Songfeng Mountain has eaten something in its stomach, how can it spit it out and share it with everyone? These masters, big and small, murmured in their hearts, but they did not dare to neglect it. After all, Songfeng Mountain is now worthy of its name.
The master of the rivers and lakes in Jiangzhou, according to gossip from the rivers and lakes, it is said that the master of Songfeng Mountain, Gao Xu, seems to have some blood relationship with the Jiangzhou general. This time, the Jiangzhou general contributed to the annihilation of the Yanyu Tower, which had been in conflict for more than a hundred years.
Quite a few, and there is also the news that Songfengshan has roped in Jiangzhou sect from other states to deal with Yanyulou. I don’t know whether it is true or not. It is said that the sect is full of assassins who are good at assassination. Yanyulou doesn’t know how to deal with it and suffers a big loss.
, otherwise we wouldn’t have failed like this.
Jiangzhou people are in charge of Jiangzhou affairs, and it is not the turn of outsiders to interfere. This is a rule set by the Jianghu elders in Jiangzhou. In addition to excluding Jianghu forces in other states, it also means to protect Jiangzhou's own Jianghu people. After all, Yao Shi
Among the six states, Jiangzhou's martial arts warriors are notoriously weak in combat. Not only did the Yao court deliberately suppress Jiangzhou's martial arts, but the warriors from this state rarely showed their talents. Once the knights who went to other states showed their Jiangzhou accent,
, it’s good to have some ridicule and ridicule. If you get angry and argue with others, you will most likely be beaten by warriors from other states whose level of combat power is much higher than that of Jiangzhou.
Hey, the Jiangzhou people are here again looking for a beating?
This is the attitude of the warriors from other states towards the rangers from Jiangzhou. From this point of view, the rules set by the Jiangzhou elders are not unreasonable. If foreign enemies from other states come in,
I, Jiangzhou Territory, have insulted me, Jiangzhou son, so we should put aside our usual grudges and fight together. Not only do we feel that we share the same hatred with the enemy, but there is also the bitterness of being inferior to others and having to join forces.
It is not just a matter of a day or two for Jiangzhou to become weak. At this moment, it is a unified situation that is rare in a century. It is not known whether the warriors of Honshu can take this opportunity to go further, not to mention that Songfeng Mountain does not seem to take this opportunity to
With the intention of catching all the sect leaders in one fell swoop, these second- and third-rate sect leaders also entered the Songfeng Mountain Gate while having doubts.
Damn, we only have this little family fortune anyway, and it’s nothing compared to Songfeng Mountain. I’m not afraid of those who are barefoot and wear shoes, but I want to see what tricks Gao Xu is playing.
When many leaders entered the gate of Songfeng Mountain with this idea in mind, they never saw the scene in the romance novels of "ambushing three hundred swordsmen and axes on both sides" and "taking the opportunity to throw cups as a sign". Instead, they were attracted by cleverness.
The maids and maids served them attentively, and after tasting the pine-scented tea on Songfeng Mountain, Gao Xu showed up to greet the masters one by one.
They really carve up the territory of Yanyu Tower! Many leaders were shocked after hearing Gao Xu’s words. These second- and third-rate sects were wavering in the previous protracted confrontation between Songfeng Mountain and Yanyu Tower, and even overtly and covertly
Those who offered help to Yanyu Tower never expected that Yanyu Tower, with Mr. Zhang from the Zhang family in Qishan County as its strong support, would actually be defeated by Songfengshan, which had never been known for its disciples' fighting prowess, and then disappear. These efforts towards Yanyu Tower would disappear.
The sects that offered help felt that a catastrophe was imminent, and many of them were planning to move their sects to other states. However, they happened to encounter a famine in other states, so they were unable to do so. They were in Jiangzhou until this moment in fear, and watched.
When life was better, I was about to move out of Jiangzhou. Suddenly I received an invitation from Songfeng Mountain. The invitation to come to the mountain was to carve up the Yanyulou site and property. How could you teach these people not to beat the drum in their hearts?
Several people dressed as accountants brought many account books and pictures, all of which were the property left by Yanyu Tower. At that time, due to the shortage of money due to the confrontation with Songfeng Mountain, they sold a small part at a low price, and the rest is now collected by Songfeng Mountain.
In the bag, it can be said that there is a huge windfall, which is enough to make up for all the losses of Songfeng Mountain in the past three years, or even worse. But now it wants to take it out and share it with them. What is the intention? Even these people with the sect
It's something that even the cunning and cunning people who have lived in the gap between Yanyu Tower and Songfeng Mountain for many years can't figure it out.
To these warriors, many of whom could not read a single Chinese character, the account books and pictures were like a book from heaven. The accounting clerks tried their best to explain to these heads how many acres of Yanyu Tower's property there were, and how many acres of property there were in the Yanyu Tower.
It took two hours of talking about the amount of jewelry, the amount of silver, and the number of shops to give these leaders a rough idea of the amount of Yanyu Tower’s property. Among them, one of the second-rate sect leaders exclaimed that half a year’s income from the Yanyu Tower’s property was enough to cover the amount of the property.
He's worth every penny.
"It's not surprising that Yanyu Tower has a bit of industry with a hundred years of accumulation." Gao Xu still sat in a high position, picked up the tea cup nearby, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Do you guys know something about the size of Yanyu Tower's industry?"
Then Gao Xu began to divide the Yanyu Tower industry. There was no doubt that Songfeng Mountain occupied the lion's share. However, it was unexpected that more than twenty second- and third-rate sect leaders would receive 30% of the property.
Some of the heads of the various sects who thought that at best Gao Xu would be able to make some leftovers were quick-thinking, and soon calculated in their minds the value of their sect's property, which was enough to double their own property.
..
"The whole Haisha Gang in Yuyin County, only Lord Gaoshan obeys his orders." The leader of the Haisha Gang, who received most of the boats left in Yuyin County from Yanyulou, stood up and saluted Gao Xu with cupped fists.
The remaining sect leaders who were still a little swaying suddenly woke up and successively stated that their sects would only follow Gao Xu's orders. A few people were still hesitant. They were all sects who had a close relationship with Yanyulou and had some or all of them in their hands.
More or less the lives of Songfengshan disciples, who had previously shown their attitude to support Yanyulou, this Yanyulou industry is not easy to bear, and it may even hurt the gastrointestinal tract if eaten.
"Lord Gaoshan." Among these sects, the power is the strongest. The leader of Youyumen, who is in the same Yuyin County as the Haisha Gang, pondered for a moment and then said calmly: "I, Youyumen, worked for Yanyulou before, and against Songfeng Mountain
This is really an offending act. Please forgive me, Master Gaoshan. If Youyumen gets a share of the property, it should be regarded as my sect’s apology to Songfeng Mountain. In the future, Youyumen will also follow Master Gaoshan’s orders.”
This was said so well that even the leader of the Haisha Gang, who had always had disputes with Youyumen, couldn't find anything wrong with him and could only hold his nose and secretly scold the old guy from Youyumen for being cunning.
As expected, when the aged and white-haired leader of the Youyu Sect said this, Gao Xu smiled and said: "Three years ago, none of you here might have had the foresight to see the victory in Songfeng Mountain.
What's more, with such a great victory, the centuries-old grudges with Songfeng Mountain and Yanyu Tower were settled in one fell swoop. For the sake of their respective sects, it is reasonable to find a family to bet on. The master of Youyu Sect must not do this.
We still have to get the Yanyu Tower property."
"If that's the case, I won't be polite." The owner of Youyu Sect beamed with joy. After all, he was heartbroken to give back those properties that he couldn't even imagine three years ago. "Master Gao Shan is so generous.
"
It doesn't seem to be a bad thing to follow such a generous and generous co-leader of Jiangzhou Jianghu. There is no telling whether his own sect can be further improved under his own hands. The leaders of these second- and third-rate sects in Jiangzhou
I thought of it all by chance.
"Right." As if remembering something, Gao Xu frowned, clasped his knuckles lightly on the table beside him, and said after a moment, "It seems that there are still a few family members who haven't come..."
The leaders present here looked at each other. All the branches of Yanyu Tower in Jiangzhou were wiped out. Very few escaped, and the scattered ones were out of place. Only the Zhang family in Naqishan County was killed by Songfeng Mountain.
Mr. Zhang and several other disciples set up their own schools after they left school. They opened martial arts schools in Wuhang and Yuyin counties to recruit disciples. Many of them were children of powerful families in Jiangzhou. However, many of them had cut off contact with the Zhang family in Qishan County.
Due to the mediation of those powerful children and elders, they were not designated as accomplices. Gao Xu's words were clearly directed at these direct descendants of the Zhang family.
Among the martial arts schools in Wuhang City, anyone who rushes to get into trouble is afraid of having a long life. Only the one from Yuyin County is still a little bit involved. He just accepted Gao Xu, a huge favor, so he might as well take this opportunity to repay it.
The leader of the Haisha Gang and the leader of the Youyu Sect stood up together:
"I would like to relieve the worries of the Lord of the Mountain."
