    ? ¡ª¡ª

    When these tribesmen who were assigned to the government returned to their families one after another, after discussing with their clan leaders, they discovered that Wenhan had been prepared to fall out with wealthy people like them from the beginning.  - "Registered members of Piaotian Literature recommend this work" "Registered members of Piaotian Literature recommend this work" - "Registered members of Piaotian Literature recommend this work"

    When he first took office, he promoted these people to official positions. He was basically promoting them openly and secretly, depriving them of their power secretly. The new official positions they were given were simply insignificant and idle positions.

    ¡° Moreover, Wenhan arranged for the newly appointed officials to form a line of their own. Although they showed goodwill to these wealthy officials on the outside, they secretly continued to work for Wenhan.  And he also deliberately concealed it from wealthy officials like them.

    This discovery immediately caused all the wealthy families in Hedong to panic.  They found that there were very few things they had in their hands that could threaten the Hedong governor.

    In the past world, all states and counties have giant government's wealthy world.  And this Wen Bufan actually wants to monopolize power and hold the entire Hedong in his hands!

    Of course, the various wealthy families in Hedong would not let this happen. They immediately decided to gather together to discuss how to deal with Wenhan.

    In Yangwu County, Hedong Province, the Wang family.

    The power of the Yangwu Wang family in Yangwu is no less than that of the Wei family in Anyi.  Although the Wang family did not produce big figures like Wei Zifu and Wei Qing like the Wei family in Anyi, it is said that the Yangwu Wang family produced several brave generals who fought with Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty.  In the world, when the Wang family was at its peak, its power spread almost throughout the entire Hedong region.

    Today¡¯s Wang family is very lively.  There was a constant flow of traffic in front of the door, and all of them were noble people dressed in extremely gorgeous and luxurious clothes. These people had arrogant expressions, and they always looked at people with their heads held high, and they could tell at a glance that they were either rich or noble.

    In the hall of the palace, there are large gold-lacquered pillars, tiger carvings on the left and right, bronze wares, and precious jade wares everywhere. The whole hall is decorated very grandly.  Every table and chair is made of rosewood, which makes it cool in summer and warm in winter. Even the furniture is valuable.

    Wang Zhong, the head of the Wang family, is sitting in the front seat. The two families on the left and right are the heads of wealthy families who came from various counties in Hedong, a total of eight people.  These eight people are from the Zhang family in Mi County, the Chen family in Xincheng, the Liang family in Liang County, the Li family in Ji County, the Jiang family in Yanshi, the Zhou family in Pingyin, the Chang family in Lantian, and the Gao family in Juan County.

    Including the Yangwu Wang family, there are nine people in total.  These nine wealthy families are all large families with extremely deep accumulation. Their combined power can control almost half of Hedong County.

    After several servants of the palace served tea, Wang Zhong, who was sitting in the seat, waved his hand and signaled the servants to leave, and gave instructions that if there were no guests within two hours, the whole government could not disturb them.

    When the servants of the royal family left one after another, an old man in his fifties, who was about fifty years old, wearing an exquisite bird crown, and who was very clean and noble, was sitting at the head of the left table. He was the head of the Zhang family in Mi County. He heard him suddenly say:  shouted.

    "This Wen Bufan is really too deceitful! When I offered him such a good deal at the beginning, he actually turned his back on me and wanted to control the entire Hedong in his hands!"

    "Hmph, this article is extraordinary if it doesn't move. If it moves, it will be like a continuous storm. It rises and falls at night, and implements in the fields. These methods are all aimed at wealthy people like you and me. Now, our tribe is in the government,  Without power, once farming is implemented, our influence in Hedong will be greatly reduced. "

    Directly opposite the patriarch of the Zhang family is the patriarch of the Chen family in Xincheng, a middle-aged man wearing black attire.  He hummed and said in a dark voice, his eyes particularly gloomy.

    "We can't just sit back and wait for death, allowing this person to monopolize the power east of the river. This person has no good intentions as soon as he comes, and uses this trick of pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, throwing us all around. If we don't take action, I'm afraid this person will  It will get worse.¡±

    The Liang clan clan chief in Liang County, who was next to the Chen clan clan clan leader in Xincheng, also spoke after taking a sip of tea.

    "Not only Wen Bufan, but also the Wei family! If it weren't for Wei Zhongdao's help, how could we have been deceived out of all the wasteland in our hands by the two of them. Without the wasteland, it would be impossible to implement this farmland.

    After solving Wen Bufan, the Wei family cannot stay.  What do you think?  "

    "Well, what Mr. Liang said makes sense. If the Wei family betrayed us and surrendered to Wen Bufan, then the Wei family no longer has to stay in Hedong."

    As soon as the Liang clan leader¡¯s words were spoken, many people in the room immediately expressed their approval.

    "Everyone is quiet. Since all the princes have unanimously agreed, Wen Bufan and the Wei family can no longer be left in Hedong. Of course, Wen Bufan must be dealt with first. As long as Wen Bufan leaves Hedong, we and the NineWith people joining forces, the Wei family would be a piece of cake.

    How to solve this problem Wen Bufan, the prince is very resourceful, why don¡¯t you listen to the prince¡¯s ideas first.  "

    At this time, the Pingyin Zhou clan leader spoke. As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present immediately turned their attention to Wang Zhong who was sitting in the seat.  Wang Zhong is about sixty years old. Although he is old, his eyes are particularly bright.

    "Yes, Mr. Wang is highly respected, so I ask you to come and make decisions for everyone."

    Wang Zhong chuckled and put down the teacup in his hand.

    "Haha, actually you don't need to worry. This Wen Bufan just comes from a poor family, so why bother dealing with such a person. I have heard of his deeds before.

    Along the way, he encountered a lot of open and covert attacks.  Do you know why?  "

    "Humph, I know a thing or two about this. When this man was still white, he dared to talk so brazenly that he would stand up for the poor families in the world. Doesn't this mean he is hostile to wealthy people like us? He is so arrogant, of course there are many people  Give him a lesson."

    "Haha, of course his arrogance is one of the reasons, but the biggest reason is that unlike you and me, he has the full support of the powerful forces in the court. In order to please these powerful people, our family has spent an unknown amount of silver.  Win the friendship and support of these people.

    Although he is now the governor of a county, he is still just a minor figure to those who hold great power in the court behind you and me.  I have prepared a letter and prepared the gold and silver. I will hand it over to the first of the ten permanent attendants in the future.

    At that time, after Duke Zhang receives the letter from me, he will tell the emperor that Wen Bufan has not built anything since he became the governor of Hedong, but has also caused great chaos in Hedong.

    " Moreover, the Holy Emperor sent this Wen Bufan to annihilate the rebellion around Hedong.  At that time, Zhang Gong once again informed Wen Bufan that he was afraid of fighting and was delaying the war, which was a disgrace to his holy hope.

    Although this Wen Bufan is one of the eight captains of the Xiyuan School personally appointed by the Holy Emperor.  The Holy One favored him very much.  But it can't stop everyone's mouth.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mbOUT?

    Under the public opinion, the Holy One could only act impartially and remove this extraordinary man from his official position and transfer him out of Hedong.  In this way, wouldn't everyone be happy?  "

    "Haha, the prince deserves to be a prince. This plan is very clever. In this way, Wen Bufan will not be arrogant in Hedong for long. I don't believe that under the condemnation of these powerful officials, this Wen Bufan can be the governor of Hedong.  You can stay in your position!¡±

    "That's right. Money is an external thing. For you and me, spending a mere taels of silver to get rid of this plague god. It's worth it! It's worth it!"

    "Haha, that's true. As the saying goes, if money can solve a problem, it is not a problem! In this way, we can all rest easy."

    "Then what are you waiting for? I'll go back quickly, prepare this gold and silver, and send a letter to Luoyang. As long as Wen Bufan is still the governor of Hedong, I won't be able to sleep well!"

    The other side is at Anyi County.

    Wenhan was reviewing documents related to farming, while Zhou Long, Zhang Hong, and Han Song were in the next room, all of them sweating over the population calculations and the food budget that needed to be allocated in the next few days.  The three of them were very tired from the farming promotion, and they were busy in the county hall almost every day.

    Hedong County originally had a population of more than 300,000 people. Since the implementation of farming, refugees from other states and counties have increased the population of Hedong County dramatically. Today, Hedong County has a population of almost more than 400,000 people.

    ¡°When there are more people, many trivial and trivial things will happen one after another.  Although housing and food have been temporarily solved, there are also many heretics among these refugees who like to steal and commit crimes. Wenhan adopts extremely tough methods to deal with these people. Once discovered, the land will be taken back and thrown into jail until the end of the sentence.  After that, they were expelled from Hedong.

    Wenhan's toughness also temporarily suppressed some of the heretics. They finally had a place to live, fields to cultivate, and were able to survive. Of course, they did not want to go back to the past where they had no food to eat and no clothing to cover their bodies. They didn't know one day that they would  The days when you fall asleep and never get up again.

    Wenhan put down one volume and just picked up another. As soon as he opened it, the volume cracked for some reason.

    Wenhan frowned, suddenly feeling uneasy, so he put down the book, walked out of the balcony, and looked at the scene outside the hall.

    In his mind, the words Xilong said two months ago suddenly rang again.

    "My lord, after the farming is implemented, if we count the days, those wealthy people who were promoted and secretly surrendered by us should also find some clues. By then, the wealthy people in Hedong will hate our lord to the core.

    OfIn the end, it was inevitable that they would not bribe the high-ranking officials in the court and slander their lord in front of the Holy Emperor.  People's words are terrible. If the Holy One listens to the slander, I'm afraid that all the master's careful planning and conspiracy will eventually turn into a Huang Ke's dream.  So, my lord, do you want to be prepared first?  "

    At that time, Wenhan thought for a while and smiled bitterly.

    Prepare?  How can he prepare?  In the court, except for his friendship with his teacher Wang Yun, it was impossible for anyone else to help him.  And when the farming was implemented, Wenhan fell out with the wealthy people in Hedong. After Wang Yun's family learned about this, they were afraid that they would ban Wang Yun from interacting with him again.

    After all, there is a saying among wealthy families that all wealthy families in the world are one family.

    The number of wealthy people occupies a very small part of the world, but they can control a huge part of power, financial resources, and land.  Naturally, there are reasons. Even though there are fights between some wealthy families from time to time, once they encounter something that threatens the interests of the entire wealthy family, these people will immediately unite to deal with the outside world.  It can be said that these wealthy people are a group of people with special status, or it is more appropriate to use a race to describe the relationship between these people.

    And how about using silver coins like those wealthy people?  Wenhan was not reluctant to give up.  But he knew that those senior officials would never accept his money.  Wenhan and wealthy people can be said to be two completely different groups. Which of the two groups can bring them more benefits does not need to be estimated at all, it can be seen at a glance.

    And many of the high-ranking officials in the court also came from noble families, so of course they would not abandon their roots and favor foreigners and help an outsider like Wen Han.

    As for Wen Han¡¯s former immediate boss, He Jin?  This person's interests come first and he doesn't talk about old feelings.

    Wenhan thought for a while, and he had no other choice but to place all his hopes on Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.

    "Zhicai, it doesn't matter if we wait for all the agencies, our path is still in the hands of others. I have no preparations, but I hope the Holy Spirit can see this fact clearly."

    Gradually, this sentence sounded again in Wenhan's mind.  Today he thought of Xilong's question from that day, and he only had the same answer as that day.
