Step on! Step on! Step on!
From the guard of honor that Cui Geng brought today, a man in his fifties walked out, walked a few steps, and went up to the high platform.
This person is no stranger to everyone, and someone exclaimed: "Jiang Shidu, it's Jiang Shidu!" Isn't he the history of Yizhou Thorn? Why did you come to Weizhou? โ
"Yes, it's the old man." Jiang Shidu nodded slightly, and said: "Cui Xiang has just given an order, from today onwards, the positions of the old man and Zhang Yangou will be changed, he is the assassin of Yizhou, and the old man is the assassin of Weizhou." โ
Cui Geng said with a smile: "This official asked Jiang Tingshi to build water conservancy in Weizhou, and turn the saline-alkali land into fertile land. As long as the three families of Weizhou give up collecting debts in advance, the official can make the decision and sell these newly created fertile land to them. โ
"It's a good deal! In short, what is the difference between buying the land, buying those small people, and buying the government? โ
"Cui Xiang is really smart, how can I forget Jiang Shidu?"
"It's easy to do when Elder Jiang comes."
โฆโฆ
People talked a lot, and they all thought that as soon as Jiang Shidu came, Cui Geng could reach a compromise with the three families of Weizhou.
Without it, Jiang Shidu's ability to control water is too powerful.
Jiang Shidu is a native of Weizhou and a model of late bloomer. When he was young, he entered the Ming Dynasty and did nothing.
However, after serving as a landlord for 20 years, he suddenly showed his talent for water control, and he didn't know how many drought, flood, and saline-alkali lands he had turned into high-quality grain fields.
I don't know how many people in the state capital are looking forward to him serving in their own state capital.
Jiang Shidu lived up to expectations, and everywhere he went, he devoted himself to building water conservancy. So much so that there was a proverb at that time, "Filial piety knows the sky, and the teacher knows the earth." (Fu Xiaozhong is good at observing the heavens and is well-known in the world.) This proverb is to say that Fu Xiaozhong only knows how to look up at the sky, and Jiang Shiduzhi knows how to look down at the ground, which is quite funny. ๏ผ
Gradually, Jiang Shidu actually accumulated merit and became the third grade of Yizhou Thorn History.
Of course, when it comes to his popularity, he is welcomed by the government and local powerful figures, but the people are not very popular.
Without it, the water conservancy was built and the people were required to serve as conscripts, but in the end, it was the local wealthy families who benefited.
However, the situation in Weizhou is different.
If Cui Geng announced that those small people who owe debts will not have to repay their debts in advance as long as they go out to work to repair water conservancy, wouldn't they enthusiastically participate?
It's a win-win situation!
This is not over, I just heard Cui Geng continue: "After the water conservancy is repaired in Weizhou, Jiang Tingshi will also be transferred to it. He planned to dig two canals in Qingchi County, Cangzhou, one leading to the Mao's River and the other to Zhangshui; build a canal in Dizhou to divert water from the Yellow River; opened Jiahe River in Beizhou Jingcheng; In Cangzhou, Lucheng built a canal to divert water to improve saline-alkali land...... If anyone is interested in the extra land from these water conservancy projects, they can tell Jiang Thorn History. โ
"To be able to tell such a major thing bluntly, Cui Xiang is really bright!"
"Fortune boy, absolute wealth boy! In the future, I will not be for the God of Wealth at home, but for Cui Xiangye. โ
"What kind of wealth boy, it should be called Cui Xiangwanjiasheng Buddha!"
โฆโฆ
People are very excited, and they don't need money to compliment them, so they can really rush out.
Until now, Cui Congli really regrets it.
He thought to himself, if I didn't embarrass Cui Geng just now, with my identity, the members of Anton Capital Reclamation Company wouldn't buy as much as they wanted? As soon as this is sold, it's money!
And now, with the extra land being built for water conservancy, I think I can also get a foot in it.
But now, it's all ruined!
Think about it carefully, my son Cui Wu is dead, what does it have to do with Cui Geng? That's what the Silla people did.
Now that Cui Geng is the commander of the Tang Army's expedition to Silla, isn't that just revenge for Cui Wu? I should be grateful to others, why should I still be embarrassed by others?
Besides, Cui Wu is not my only son, and he is quite a good man, so it is up to me whether I can pass on the lineage. Why did I bother to turn my face with Cui Geng for the sake of this brute.
Thinking of this, suddenly, Cui Congli smiled all over his face and said, "Erlang, Erlang, I'm an uncle and grandfather, can I discuss something with you?" I don't want the 10,000 yuan, can I ...... it?"
"What? Uncle and grandfather have changed their minds and want to buy a part of Anton Capital Reclamation Company? โ
Cui Congli rubbed his hands together and said nervously: "Should you be...... Let me buy from someone else, right? โ
"Of course. Although the rules are immutable, the son-in-law has some personal shares, and he is willing to transfer it to his uncle and grandfather. โ
"Thank you Erlang, thank you Erlang!"
Poof!
Li Yongliang finally couldn't stand the blow and fainted.
He couldn't help but faint, he was too bullying. He was not the only one who was clamoring against Cui Geng just now. Especially Na Cui Congli, the opposition is the most fierce. However, how did you end up just being unlucky? Is there any reason for this? Is there still a royal law?
The others didn't care about his life or death, and after ordering the little servant to carry him down, they couldn't wait to consider the details of the Andong Capital Reclamation Company.
However, just when everyone thought that a storm was over.
Suddenly, someone laughed loudly and said, "Cui Erlang, Cui Erlang, no matter what you do, it won't be able to penetrate people's hearts." The old man is here to tell you clearly, it shouldn't be mine, I don't want a penny. It's mine, and I can't miss a penny. Now that I have the deed in hand, I am determined to want the land of those small people, how will you stay? โ
"Oh? Is it? Cui Gengyin said compassionately: "It seems that you have eaten the scales and have an iron heart, and you are going to be embarrassed by this official?" โ
Of course, Wei Li understood the allusion of "Wang Ba eats scales", and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, you just say, I insist on the land of those small people, what can you do?" โ
"In that case......" Suddenly, Cui Geng's face turned grim and said, "Someone!" tied Wei Li up and handed him over to the Criminal Department for questioning. Other than that...... Feng Changqing! โ
"The last general!"
"You took five hundred officers and soldiers and raided Wei Li's house!"
"The last general commands!"
Cui Geng said again: "Xin Chenghei! โ
"In!"
"The people who led us will take down all the maids and servants of the Wei family today. ๏ผโ
"Yes!"
Cui Geng gave three orders in a row, and they were quickly executed.
Wei Li almost suspected that he was having a nightmare at this time, and it wasn't until someone tied him up in a knot that he reacted, jumped to his feet and scolded, "Why? Why did you Cui Geng arrest me? Still raiding my home? You must know that my Tang Dynasty has a royal law, and I will never allow you to declare personal vendettas. โ
Cui Gengzheng said: "It's not a personal vendetta to be announced, but to punish crimes according to the law!" โ
"Joke, I violated the law of the Tang Dynasty by recovering the land of the small people according to the deed signed in advance?"
Cui Geng said unhurriedly: "According to the deed, you are not guilty of recovering the land of the small people." But murder ...... What about the officer? Also innocent? โ
