Chapter 574: Changing Face
"Thank you, thank you." Zhao Ji thanked him again and again, and then led the way in front.
The place where Zhao Yan lives is extremely obvious, because in Zhaojia Village, most of them are thatched houses, in contrast, Zhao Yan's home is a little outstanding, Lu Bu even found that the Zhao family's house is actually made of cement, cement is not sold in Jinyang at present, and is temporarily used to repair the city and roads.
Outside the door, two vicious servants blocked the group's path.
"What do you guys do?" A servant looked at Zhao Ji viciously.
"Meet Zhao Yan in the next place, go and tell me." Qin Yu stepped forward and said.
Seeing that Qin Yu was behaving modestly, and Lu Bu's outfit was not an ordinary person, the servant said a little and walked towards the courtyard.
Zhao Yan heard that there was an old man coming outside the door, and although he was puzzled, he still led someone out.
Lu Bu saw more than ten strong guards behind Zhao Yan, his brows furrowed slightly, when did there still be such a person in a village, and these guards still carried blades, if it was said that there was no collusion with the nearby pavilion chief and You Du, he would not believe it, and the state has strict control over blades, in Jinyang, unless it is a person in the army and has an official position, ordinary people cannot wear blades.
"I don't know who Your Excellency is?" Zhao Yan asked from afar.
Qin Yu arched his hand and said: "I am a merchant from Jinyang, I happened to pass by here, I heard the name of the Zhao family, I came here, I hope to be considerate." ”
"It turned out to be a guest from Jinyang, please come in." Zhao Yan arched his hand.
After the group walked into Zhao's house, Zhao Yan came to the crowd and asked in a low voice, "Zhao Ji, what's going on with these people?" ”
A trace of panic flashed in Zhao Ji's expression, and he hurriedly said: "All these years, I have also passed through the village at noon today to inquire about the head of the Zhao family. ”
"Let the people below be careful." Zhao Yan told the accompanying guards to glance, he has done a lot of bad things over the years, Zhao Yan is also a careful person, he is surrounded by guards when he travels, only in this way can he feel safe, as for Zhao Ji, he didn't pay attention to it.
One of the guards in the crowd looked at Lu Bu suspiciously, feeling a little familiar in his mind.
After taking a seat, Lu Bu set his eyes on Qin Yu, this time mainly to let the officials under Qin Yu's command get close to how to deal with affairs, the inspectorate supervised the officials, and the responsibility of the inspectorate was even greater, and the characters faced at that time were also varied.
Li Zhong, who was beside Qin Yu, said with a smile: "Don't hide it from the head of the Zhao family, when I was in Jinyang, I also heard the name of the head of the Zhao family, and in the past, I was quite rich in the next family, and there were thousands of acres of good land, but after the Marquis of Jin took charge of the state, the good land in the family was gone, and I heard that the head of the Zhao family had thousands of acres of good land, so I came to ask for advice." ”
Zhao Yan saw that the rest of the people also nodded, and he knew a little in his heart, he had thousands of acres of fertile land nearby, it was not a secret, and Zhao Yan thought that he was doing right, even if there were officials from Jinyang to check, he also had a way to deal with it, and the officials of Jinyang were so busy, He Zeng would look down, and after getting the support of the Li family, he intensified even more, on the bright side, everyone knew that the Zhao family had thousands of acres of fertile land, in fact, the fields controlled by the Zhao family had reached 3,000 acres.
"So that's it." Zhao Yan said with a smile: "In the lower happiness and charity, I can't see the people suffering, the people encounter some disasters in their homes, and they will help one or two in the next, and the people are grateful, and they will give up the fields at home, and they can only accept it." "The whereabouts of these people in front of him are unknown, and he will definitely not reveal too much.
Lu Bu looked at Zhao Yan with a calm expression, what he wanted to know was what kind of person the Li family was, and there were not a few people surnamed Li in Jinyang City.
"Alas, it's also that the Marquis of Jin's methods are too tough, otherwise he will ...... with his family resources" Li Zhong wanted to stop again.
"Your Excellency said cautiously, the great grace of the Marquis of Jin has made the people have land to cultivate, and I am grateful when I think about it." Zhao Yandao.
Seeing that what Zhao Yan said was not leaky, Qin Yu also frowned slightly, from his words, he could feel that Zhao Yan was a cautious person, and there were more than ten guards outside the door, which showed that he was also on guard.
"I see, after settling in Zhao Ji's house in the lower village, after hearing what happened to Zhao Ji, I also felt something, I don't know if the head of the Zhao family can raise his noble hand?" Qin Yu said.
Zhao Yan looked puzzled, a character like Zhao Ji couldn't match his eyes, he had been observing Zhao Ji's middle-aged age from the side, and hurriedly stepped forward and whispered.
Zhao Yan snorted coldly: "It turned out to be someone invited by Zhao Ji, and I can't agree to it, because Zhao Ji's son ordered two ploughing cattle in Xia's house to die, if this matter is known to the pavilion chief and You Xuan, they will definitely be asked." ”
"The head of the Zhao family is not claiming that he can't see the people suffering, so why not let Zhao Ji live." Li Zhongdao.
Li Zhong is a student of Jinyang Academy, and he was also a member of the poor people, he knows that the life of the people is not easy, and he hates the families who are most involved in the local area.
"Hmph, have mercy on the people, but not condone the people, if the people are not concerned because of this, then it will not be chaos." Zhao Yandao.
Zhang Fang, who was beside Li Zhong, said coldly: "Could it be that the head of the Zhao family behaves like this, isn't he afraid that after returning to Jinyang, he will explain this matter to the government office?" ”
Qin Yu nodded slightly, although Zhang Fang's approach was a bit excessive, it was a good way to make Zhao Yan show his true face, like Zhao Yan and others, what they were most afraid of was to see officials.
Who knew that Zhao Yan laughed out loud when he heard this: "With such a threat, Mo Feier and the others thought that they could still get out of the Zhao family." ”
As soon as the words fell, several guards guarding the door broke in, pulled out the knife at their waists, and looked at Lu Bu and the others coldly.
Zhao Ji suddenly panicked, in the past, he had heard people mention that the Zhao family had killed many people, and he originally thought it was a rumor, but he didn't expect the Zhao family to dare to do such a thing in broad daylight.
"Don't be angry, the old man didn't come here for family affairs, don't embarrass the guests." Zhao Ji hurriedly said.
"Hmph, Zhao Ji, the Zhao family gave you face, so that you could compensate for the land in your family, I didn't expect you to bring someone here, if the Zhao family is easy to bully, what can the businessmen of Jinyang do, even if you are all left in the Zhao family, no one will complain for you." He didn't do these things once or twice, as the so-called once born and two ripe, for some disobedient people, he would bring them home to intimidate, and the effect was also very good, of course, some stubborn people, he didn't mind making a move, even if it was close to Jinyang, what could it be, in the township, it was You Jiao and others who had the final say.
It's just that after the family business has become bigger, these things are handed over to the people below to deal with, and the reason why they came forward today is also because Qin Yu and others claim to be his old friends.
