    "The Qinghe army kills people without blinking an eye. Maybe the knife will fall on our heads at any time. Hurry up and pack up, let's go too."

    The Qinghe army severely punished the Zhang family in Zhangjiazhuang, beheading dozens of heads, which won the applause of the people, but also frightened many gentry and rich men.

    Wujiabao is not far from Zhangjiazhuang, when Wu Zhenrui told his father Wu Youcai what he saw and heard.

    Rao Wu Youcai, who was in his sixtieth year, has experienced great storms and waves all his life, and he was terrified enough, so he decided to flee with his family from the territory of Yunxi Mansion.

    After all, even if the officials of the imperial court are dissatisfied with these country gentry and rich lords, at most they charge a little more money and food, and they have to rely on them to control the people in the vast villages and towns.

    But the Qinghe army is different. They not only want to carve up the land of these gentry and rich men, but also kill people at every turn, which is not bad.

    So Wu Youcai was also frightened by what the Qinghe army did, and he didn't dare to stay in Wujiabao anymore, and wanted to flee with his family.

    "Father, the world is full of chaos, where can we escape?"

    Facing Wu Youcai's idea of ??fleeing Yunxi Mansion, his son Wu Zhenrui stayed instead of being a refugee.

    "Although the Qinghe army wanted to divide our land, they didn't give up all of it. They still left us a lot of land. As long as we work hard, we won't be hungry. If we go out and become refugees, we will be in danger.  .¡±

    Wu Youcai said: "It's better to be a refugee than to be killed. Dozens of members of the Zhang family have lost their heads. Our Wu family can't lose their incense."

    "The Zhang Family is completely self-inflicted. Usually in Yurou Township, this time they colluded with bandits to kill the people of the Qinghe Army. I think they deserve it."

    "I went to Zhangjiazhuang to see that the Qinghe army has strict military discipline, and Qiu has committed no crimes. Moreover, their Chief of Political Affairs, Mr. Qin, also said that they will not kill innocent people indiscriminately, and only punish those who commit crimes."

    Wu Zhenrui looked at his sixtieth-year-old father and said: "Our Wu family is building bridges and paving roads, and giving out porridge in disaster years. It is different from Zhang's family. The Qinghe army has no reason to attack us."

    "You're not the Qinghe army, how do you know they won't attack us?" Wu Youcai asked his son back.

    "If the Qinghe army would attack us, it would have done it long ago. Why wait until now? I see that the Qinghe army wants to establish a long-term development in Yunxi Mansion. Otherwise, it would not distribute land to the people to win the hearts of the people.  gone."

    Wu Zhenrui looked around and continued to analyze: "Other rebels are robbing money and food, eating meat and drinking heavily, but this Qinghe army is distributing land to the people to win the hearts of the people. I see that General Chen,  The picture is huge."

    After hearing Wu Zhenrui's words, Wu Youcai also realized that the Qinghe army was really different from other rebels.

    "Father, even if we sold our land and houses and fled to the imperial court's control area, let alone the bandits and thieves along the way, even if we arrived at the provincial capital safely, we are not familiar with the place where we live, who knows what dangers we will encounter?  , Maybe it will go bankrupt overnight."

    Hearing what his son described, Wu Youcai couldn't help but sigh. Could it be that their Wu family really has no way out?

    "But if we stay here, the Qinghe army will also divide our land, and the future will become more difficult."

    "Father, we can't plant that much land, so they can divide it up if they want. Anyway, we can't die of hunger." Wu Zhenrui said.

    "You can think about it. It's the family business accumulated by our generations. If you say nothing, it will be gone. After a hundred years, how can I have the face to meet my ancestors?"

    "Father, several generations of us have worked so hard to accumulate such a little family property. To be honest, in the eyes of others, we are just a rich man from the countryside, and we can't get on the stage."

    "What do you mean?!"

    After hearing Wu Zhenrui's words, Wu Youcai raised his eyebrows and asked loudly.

    "Dad, I don't mean anything else, I think we shouldn't just want to be a rich man in the countryside."

    "The Qinghe army has a big plan, why don't we hold on to the Qinghe army's thighs, if they take over the world in the future, we can follow the trend, not to mention the Yunxi mansion, even the Jiangbei province, that also has a place for us.  "Wu Zhenrui expressed his thoughts.

    After hearing Wu Zhenrui's words, Wu Youcai was also stunned on the spot, never expecting that his son would have such thoughts.

    "Son, do you want to be in the Qinghe army?"

    "You?Looking at the joy of the river army now, once the imperial army comes back, they will have to flee in desperation. We can¡¯t get on their thief boat. When the imperial court settles it, our family will really be over.  "

    "Father, do you think the court can call back?"

    "this"

    Wu Youcai also knew the situation of the imperial court. Not only were the officials at all levels corrupt, but also uprisings were happening all over the world, and the imperial court was actually unable to control the situation.

    "Father, the Qinghe army has strict discipline and is not weak. Why don't we take a gamble? If we win the bet, our Wu family can flourish. If the Qinghe army loses by then, we will hide in the mountains at the worst.  Cut off the incense."

    "This matter has a lot to do with it, let me think about it."

    Wu Youcai has managed the family business passed down from his ancestors all his life, and he is so reserved that he dare not have any unreasonable thoughts.

    But now his son Wu Zhenrui is no longer willing to manage this land for the rest of his life, and has greater ambitions.

    Now Wu Youcai even regrets that he shouldn't have sent Wu Zhenrui to a private school in the first place, which caused him to have so many thoughts now.

    Wu Zhenrui saw that his father could not be persuaded for a while, so he was not in a hurry, and left immediately.

    During the days when Wu Youcai was thinking about it, the Qinghe Army was also moving quickly, and those bandits hiding in Yunxi Mansion suffered a devastating blow.

    At the same time, the work of dividing the land in various villages and towns was also in full swing. Dozens of heads of the Zhang family were circulated in various places. Coupled with the vigorous propaganda of the Qinghe Army, they immediately won the support of the people.

    In Leyuan and other three counties, some heinous country gentry and rich men were also punished as typical examples, scaring many modest people to flee.

    But not long after fleeing, news came back that someone had found the bodies of many gentry and rich men somewhere outside the Qinghe army's control area. Some people speculated that they had been ransacked by bandits.

    With such news being sent back, it is natural that those who originally thought about fleeing would not dare to act rashly anymore, because no one wants to die in another country.

    The Qinghe army did not blindly suppress the situation, but the carrot and the stick. While severely punishing the clan forces of the common people, they introduced new policies.

    The new policy of the Qinghe Army is very simple. They have divided up the land of many gentry and rich men, which can be regarded as causing losses to them.

    Therefore, the Qinghe Army also gave them some benefits as compensation, that is, giving them the franchise to do business. As long as they do business, they will receive financial and policy support from the Qinghe Army.  Tax.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
