Chapter 873: It's like a feudal town

Thanks to Duan Anping, a reliable person, it is much safer to inquire about the places he manages than elsewhere, and he cautiously got some news, and the territory of Shandong Wenxiang Sect has changed greatly, and a group of people have suddenly changed at all levels, and the activities have also begun to become secretive, no longer as ostentatious as before, and these owners of incense who have been arrested will naturally have to be replaced with new people, and those who have not been arrested have also been replaced.

After such a sudden change, the Shandong Wenxiang Sect not only became transparent to Zhao Ziying, but became even more impermeable, and the threat was even greater.

What can be seen and the clues that can be learned, Zhao Jin and his partners can surmise something, for example, the Shandong Wenxiang Sect should take advantage of this battle between the official army and the Zhao Ziying to clean a group of bones in the sect, and those who were captured and killed needless to say, the rest have no friends and Olympic aid, and their strength is also greatly weakened, and the current Wenxiang Sect should be reorganized.

Now Zhao Ziying has an understanding of the concept of Wenxiang Sect, there are a large number of believers who burn incense in Beizhili, Henan, Shandong and Nanzhili, and there are also many noble and high-ranking officials in Beijing and Nanjing and even eunuchs in the inner court who believe in religion, but these are not the same thing.

The vast majority of the incense cultists in the north and south are related to Cao Yun, often those who are Cao Ding Yun and the like, they burn incense and believe in religion, in addition to asking for the blessing of God and Buddha, more is to form associations for self-protection, and there is no plan to fight against the government, Henan side is on the Yellow River on the Cao Yun related to more than half, the rest is with the Shandong Xu Hongru this line of confluence, this part is a great plot, and the imperial court and the government swear not to stand with the attitude.

The Wenxiang Sect members related to Caoyun are now dealing with the Zhao Ziying system a lot, everyone is a cooperative business partner, this group of people is far away from the same sect members in Shandong and Henan, when the business is doing well, they will be more estranged, when the Zhao Ziying is harmful to them, they will collude with those people to come in and make trouble.

The Wenxiang Sect in Pizhou, Xuzhou and Huai'an Prefecture has been shrinking, and the people who stayed behind are either for the internal guard to inquire about the news, or their beliefs are difficult to change, as for the new believers to join the church, it is strictly forbidden, but from Mu Shulan to the ordinary people below, everyone is not much interested in this mission.

After the matter of appeasement was decided, the five counties of Tancheng, Yixian, Tengxian, Yutai, and Shanxian had completely opened their doors to Zhao Ziying, and the stores and granges under Yunshanxing were opened one after another, and there were no local forces at all to resist, and they did not dare to resist.

Even the stewards of the Lu Wangfu transferred the grange to the other party free of charge, all the properties of the Lu Wangfu in these counties were obediently transferred, and the people were all withdrawn, even the emperor's relatives bowed their heads like this, who else would dare to stiffen the top?

However, in the place where there were some accidents in Teng County, there were two granges that pleaded in a low voice, willing to obey the arrangements of Zhao Ziying, but it was impossible to withdraw, and the identities of these two places were also a little different, but they were the Zhuangzi of the Meng family in Zoucheng.

After being the same saint, the Confucian Mansion of Yansheng Gong has a vast industry, and the Meng family is much worse, but in Zou Cheng and Zuojin, it is also a first-class family, but the Meng family is not as good as the Confucian family, and it is not as good as the Lu Wangfu, so it can only be whispered

However, the reputation of the Meng family in the local area is not bad, and the Tengxian gentry who are trembling about the strength of Xuzhou actually dare to intercede, you must know that in various parts of Shandong, where there is the industry of Yanshenggong Confucius, the land has been scraped badly, not only the people are miserable, but even the gentry are gritting their teeth, and the Meng family is different.

For this harmless force, Zhao Ziying will not be too embarrassed, and he is very considerate of the human feelings, but the obligation to bear is not because he is a descendant of the saint is not a penny, which makes the Teng County father quite convinced, in front of real money, the Confucian and Mencian families are not qualified to be less than everyone.

From October to the end of the year, when Zhao Ziying, Yunshanxing and Xuzhou Pizhou entered these five counties, these places from the gentry to the people of the rivers and lakes were frightened and abnormal, to this juncture, the industrial property is no longer a big deal, but the other party has even defeated the official army, so what else is there to care about, if you don't agree, you will definitely be swept away, and your life is not guaranteed.

But to the surprise of these counties, the people of Xuzhou, who they thought were brutal in the past, and this time they were the most vicious people who defeated the official army, they did it very reasonably.

This time, there was no such thing as forcible seizure and seizure, all of them were in accordance with the rules and fair trade, and the Zhuangzi industry occupied by the Nalu Wangfu naturally did not need to be said, if you wanted the local people's land and the like, they would pay cash at a slightly higher price than the market price, and they would never be in arrears, and the handler would not do anything.

The branch of Nayun Shan Xing brought a lot of high-quality and inexpensive goods, such as private salt, cotton cloth and silk, from top to bottom.

Although the land price in Teng County has always been very low, because it is a canal basin, no wells can be drilled, and even river water cannot be diverted for irrigation, coupled with the endless harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, the output has always been very low, and the price of land is naturally not high, but after all, it is a fair trade, which shows an attitude, this group of Xuzhou people will not be as unscrupulous and barbaric as Lu Wangfu.

That is, around a month ago, the style of Zhao Ziying and Yunshanxing made those who went away to take refuge return, and some even took the initiative to report the news.

Thanks to the news they reported, Zhao Ziying knew that the activities of the Smelling Incense Sect in these places were frequent again, and the cultists burned incense and gathered and preached in private, all of which were secretive and abnormal, if it weren't for those local natives with keen ears and eyes, Zhao Ziying really wouldn't have known about it at the first time.

"We fought with the official army, and then killed and arrested nearly 100 leaders in the Smelling Fragrance Sect, why did this Smelling Fragrance Sect follow the strictness, it seems that we cleaned them up." The news from all parties came together, and Zhao Jin was very helpless.

"Now Lei Zi's side can already see that the rumors are wrong, the Yunshan branch in Linqing has been targeted, according to the news given by the Li family, the people who are watching must have nothing to do with the government, and the factory guards don't even pay attention to it at all, it should also be related to the Wenxiang Sect, and their activities in Shandong have suddenly intensified." Liu Yong opened his mouth and said.

"It's also the carelessness of the younger brother, after March, the internal guard felt relaxed in dealing with all parts of Shandong, but I didn't expect such a change, and I couldn't deal with it for a while." Liu Yong looked very distressed and said with self-reproach.

Zhao Jin waved his hand and said: "It's none of your business, we are all staring at the official family in front, and we are negligent about this smelling incense sect, you have so many people, how can you keep an eye on it, and we don't think that only we will be brave and diligent, others will remain the same, we are changing, and others are also changing." ”

Liu Yong nodded again and again, but still said with a little apprehension: "Big brother, there are too many people coming to our Xuzhou now, even if a few other brothers help, most of the manpower of the internal guard team must keep an eye on Xuzhou, otherwise it is easy to make mistakes, and I am afraid that Shandong will not be able to take care of it." ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Jin also sighed, and could only say in a muffled voice: "Take care of the fundamentals first, you can't ignore everything in Shandong, and leave the basic human hands to stare at"

Wang Zhaojing, who has not been very vocal all the time, also shook his head at this time, and said with emotion: "The current situation makes our Xuzhou like a Tang Dynasty town, and those who are unwilling in the imperial court have to come here to try their luck." ”

The victories of the Zhao Ziying have expanded the manpower of the internal guard again and again, but at present, there are too many people from Xuzhou and too many people, and there are too many places to use people outside, so the family members on the side of the internal guard have become insufficient.

The chaotic people of Xuzhou gathered together, went south to defeat the soldiers and horses of the south Zhili Jiangbei, and went north to defeat the soldiers and horses of Baoding and Shandong, and then the imperial court appeased, sympathized with the grievances, and then the chaotic people dispersed.

The land of Xuzhou, with such a ability, and it is said that the wealth is rolling, is the most prosperous place in Nanzhili at present, such a place, naturally attracts visitors from all walks of life.

In addition to the local hub location of Xuzhou, it also means that the goods on the Cao Yun can be imported into Xuzhou in large quantities, so that Xuzhou has become a hub for the export of commercial goods from Nanzhili and even Zhejiang and Jiangxi to Henan, Shaanxi and Shanxi.

Such a key hub is a treasure land for attracting wealth and treasure, attracting merchants from all walks of life in the southeast and northwest to come and see if there are opportunities for their own wealth.

It is said that after October, the merchants of the world have begun to wonder when to go home for the New Year, and there will be fewer and fewer people in various commercial towns, but Xuzhou has become an exception, and the merchants from Henan, Nanzhili and Shandong alone have been crowded to the point of crowding, not to mention that the merchants from Shanxi and Zhejiang are on their way.

The inns on this side of Hejiazhuang have been full, and the local residents who have spare rooms at home have followed Xiaocai, and those villages and granges around Hejiazhuang have also become places for people to load goods, only on the ground in Xuzhou, I don't know how many vehicles and boats do not stop all day, from the Yellow River, from the canal, from each 6 roads, the local needs of various flowers and all kinds of goods are brought together.

There are even tents around Hejiazhuang, and the businessmen can naturally see the opportunity, and they are reluctant to leave when they see it, and they want to understand and eat thoroughly.
