Listening to Li Tai say this, the family will eventually become a business family, or even a consortium family. In order to replace the current status of the family.

However, in terms of practical and accurate words, they should no longer be called a family. They should be described as family more appropriately.

Because at that time, they would use economic monopolies to balance the country. It is not like now, with the right to speak in the DPRK and China to check and balance the country. So to describe it as a family, it's a little bit inappropriate.

"My lord, if you follow what you said, then you shouldn't help them to deal with the big families of the Central Plains. Because leaving them behind may become a new trouble for the lord. Liu Renliang opened his mouth and said to Li Tai.

Liu Renliang is right, if these family dignitaries will one day become business families, or even consortium families. So why not just nip them in the bud?

"Liu Xiang, these nobles in the Yan Kingdom don't want to argue with the country at any time. Even now, their family's right to speak in the court is equivalent to zero. ”

"Except for a little influence in the local area, they don't want to make any big waves. So even if they are left behind, they will not be able to become a business family, let alone a consortium family. Li Tai said to Liu Renliang with a smile.

"I remember my father once told me that any form of existence has a certain lifespan. The princes of the Shang and Zhou dynasties are almost the same as today's families. ”

"The princes existed for thousands of years, and finally slowly disappeared into the long river of history. Now that the chefs of the family have existed for thousands of years, I am afraid that the family is about to slowly withdraw from the stage of history. ”

"But just the form changes, but the essence does not necessarily disappear. Because as the lord said, they will appear in another form. That is, the consortium family that the lord said. Lu Wanda opened his mouth and said to the crowd.

Li Tai didn't think that these five surnames and seven sects had already thought that one day the family would no longer be as graceful as it used to be, and they would no longer be able to call for wind and rain in the court.

And the five surnames and seven sects in history were in the Huangchao Rebellion at the end of the Tang Dynasty. It caused a large number of casualties among the clansmen, destroyed the rich homes and industries, and lost the ancestral genealogy that the five surnames and seven clans were proud of. The clan declined, and eventually became indistinguishable from the common people, and the status of the clan was replaced by the landlord and gentry class.

And these landlords and gentlemen are the prototype of a business family or even a consortium family. Eventually, after a long period of development, they finally began to restrain the state again when they entered capitalist society.

"So in the end, it was these original families who became the counterweight to the country, because they had a strong economic expenditure. Therefore, they have unique conditions for transformation at a critical moment. ”

"Of course, this is just a matter of getting a head start, and it doesn't necessarily mean a successful transformation. It may even become history. Li Tai said.

"The meaning of the lord is to use these nobles of the Yan Kingdom to restrict the development of the Central Plains family. However, I am afraid that these nobles do not have such ability. Liu Renliang opened his mouth and said to Li Tai.

"Liu Xiang is right, since they can call the wind and rain above the court. Even my father sometimes had to compromise with them. How could it be that these small families could compete with? ”

"But if they get the king's help, it will be a different result. The king will make a development plan for them, so that they can develop according to the king's ideas. ”

"Eventually, when their family has developed to a certain extent, they can use them to restrain the Central Plains family. At the same time, we must not let them get out of the control of this king, otherwise it is possible to raise tigers and become troublesome. Li Tai opened his mouth and said to Liu Renliang.

"Then I don't know what method the lord can use to control them firmly in his hands. Even if the lord can deter them, he does not dare to guarantee that the descendants of the lord have this ability. Lu Wanda asked Li Tai.

Lu Wanda asked right, this is how their five surnames and seven sects developed. If the monarch who had just begun to train them knew that there would be today, how could he give them that opportunity.

Because the monarch who cultivates them can make them bow down. But the descendants of those monarchs, in the end, could not control them. In the end, it led to the formation of five surnames and seven sects.

"The king is going to set up a tax office, account for their annual income, and finally collect taxes from them reasonably. In this way, we can understand the development of their family. ”

"At the same time, we can also set up a political office in their family to control the development of their family. And even at some point, it can be directly nationalized. Li Tai opened his mouth and said to everyone.

In fact, Li Tai also knew in his heart that these were just treating the symptoms but not the root cause. Everything is man-made, and he wants to rely on himself to protect the future generations. That's a dream.

……

Later, Li Tai stepped forward and, according to the records on the roster, began to repay the family and invested the silver in the run plot. Li Tai was refunded in full according to the quantity.

And the people sent by Li Tai to return the money are not ordinary people. Rather, it was several generals of Li Tai's Iron Guard Forbidden Army. They personally led the troops to return it.

Undoubtedly, he was warning them if they dared to participate in something like Yan again. The next time it's just the Iron Guard.

Li Tai exchanged Tang Yuan, and naturally received tens of thousands of Kaiyuan Tongbao and silver. So they have enough money to repay them. And it will not cause any substantial harm to Li Tai.

However, these Kaiyuan Tongbao and silver, Li Tai can still come in handy. At the very least, they can be handed over to Li Shimin and exchanged for some things they need from Li Shimin's hands.

Li Tai's move completely made those big families panic. They never expected that in the end, those Yan family families would choose to take refuge in Li Tai.

and also informed Li Tai of the details of their participation in this matter. In other words, they are now completely on Li Tai's blacklist.

And with Li Tai's retributive character, how could they not be worried. So when Qin Huaiyu and the others sent the silver, some families chose to refuse to accept it.

Of course, they didn't want to sell favors to Li Tai, but they didn't admit that they had participated in this matter. So naturally, he would not accept the silver repaid by Li Tai.

In some small and medium-sized families, almost all of these things have happened. Because they knew that with their family's ability, they couldn't compete with Yan King Li Tai at all. So it's better to lose some silver than to be hated by Li Tai.

And the few families with five surnames and seven sects did not take this matter to heart at all. Unceremoniously pocketed the silver. And he was also very arrogant, as if he was telling Li Tai if it wasn't for his face this time. This matter will not rest on its laurels.

Maybe it's because Qin Huaiyu and they can't get used to these five surnames and seven sects, or maybe it's Qin Huaiyu and they suddenly have a bad taste. In short, Li Tai didn't need to explain anything, so they gave a powerful response.

That is, when he was about to leave, he began to talk loudly without any scruples. The content of the conversation was that such a large mansion, how many soldiers need to be brought to besiege it. And even how much oil is needed to burn it to rubble.

And Cheng Tieniu shouted even louder: "Why bother, let me take the Four Spirit Qilin Army to kill it now, and keep them from leaving chickens and dogs." ”

"The third brother is right, when the time comes, you and my brother will split up. Let's compare and see who is faster, how? Luo Tong said to Cheng Tieniu with a smile.

"Okay, when the time comes, the losing side will give half of what it gets to the winning side." Cheng Tieniu said with a laugh.

And Qin Huaiyu, Yu Chi Baolin, and Yu Chi Baoqing are willing to be this middleman. Then he took his soldiers and left.

This can make the Li family in Longxi, the Li family in Zhaojun and the Zheng family in Xingyang extremely angry. and immediately ordered someone to write a recital, threatening and intimidating Li Shimin to impeach Li Tai.

It stands to reason that the Li family in Longxi should be Li Tai's own family, and they should not embarrass Li Tai. It is even necessary to vigorously support Li Shimin.

But on the contrary, they are in collusion with the other five surnames and seven sects, and they put the interests of the family first everywhere, and they don't care about the people of the world at all.

Therefore, Li Shimin also hated the Li family in Longxi, but he didn't have the slightest way to take them. As for the rumors that Li Shimin's family does not belong to the Li family in Longxi, but Li Yuan forcibly leaned on it after becoming the emperor.

But Li Tai didn't want to dwell on this, because there was no conflict between this and what he wanted to do. Even if the Li family in Longxi is Li Tai's own family, they are on the opposite side of Li Tai, and Li Tai will not treat them as his own.

……

Li Tai made such a big move, how could Li Shimin not know? However, Li Shimin not only did not think that Li Tai did something wrong, but also praised Li Tai in his heart.

So when Li Shimin received the impeachment of the three families. Li Shimin opened his mouth and asked, "The three of you are talking about Li Tai, the king of He Yan, and send people to intimidate and threaten you. And what evidence is there? ”

This time the representatives of the three families were dumbfounded, after all, this kind of threat was only verbal. How to find evidence, if you want to say that there is, it can only be the party as a witness.

But these people all belong to their own families, how can they convince the Manchu civil and military? So for a while, they didn't know how to answer Li Shimin.

But at this moment, Cheng Yanjin on the side stood up and asked loudly: "You said that it was my Cheng Tieniu who threatened and intimidated you, so I don't know why my Cheng Yanjin's son went to your house?" ”

Cheng Biting Jin's words made them even more speechless. They originally thought that as long as their impeachment was folded to Li Shimin. In order to appease the anger of the three families, Li Shimin has to blame Li Tai to some extent.

Perhaps this is the fault of the so-called inertial thinking, and they have become accustomed to pointing fingers at Li Shimin. So naturally they didn't think so much, otherwise they would not have directly spoken out about impeachment.

"Brother Cheng Wang is right, why did the Iron Guard Forbidden Army of Yan King Li Tai come to your house. I'm very curious at the moment. Li Shimin asked.
