The Supreme Call of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 76 Yingchuan Guo Fengxiao

After overthrowing the Zheng family with a stick, Gao Chong also went on a killing spree in Beihai and ransacked the Guo family!

The king of Qi was overwhelmed, the Zheng family and the Guo family were punished, and almost on the same day, hundreds of heads fell to the ground in Qingzhou. Troubled times are so cruel and ruthless.

Liu Xiao used rare iron and blood methods to kill chickens and monkeys. The two big families used the flags to sacrifice, which completely shocked the powerful families in Qingzhou who were about to move. If Liwei succeeds, his foundation in Qingzhou will become deeper and deeper, and his foundation is built on the people of the Li people, not the gentry. With the support of the people of the Li people, even if the gentry want to turn their backs, there is nothing to be afraid of Yes, with a flip of your hand, you can mobilize the army and clean up these gentry!
Just by confiscating the Zheng family and the Guo family, Liu Xiao immediately enriched the treasury of Qingzhou. The two families control more than 60 mu of land, and the grain in their own manor is piled up like a mountain. It took Liu Xiao more than ten days.

The Guo family owned 18 mu of land, embezzled 3000 mu of land, hoarded more than 20 taels of gold, tens of thousands of taels of silver, tens of thousands of catties of red gold, and thousands of farmhouses; the Zheng family owned more than 30 mu of land and embezzled eight 30 mu, the family wealth is huge, even more points than the Guo family. As for the hoarded grain, each family has nearly [-] shi. You must know that even Sima, Sikong, and Situ have a salary of only ten thousand a year. It's just stones, and even the imperial salary received every year is only a few thousand stones. The surplus food accumulated by the two great families has exceeded [-] stones. [-] stones of grain, even if a soldier consumes three stones of food a year, it is enough for [-] stones The soldiers have stored food for a year.

The embezzlement of social wealth by the powerful nobles has reached a shocking level. No wonder the Yellow Turban Army wants to rebel. All the food has entered the hands of these wealthy families, and the common people starve to death. It’s strange if they don’t rebel...

Liu Xiao looked at the account book in front of him and kept rubbing his temples. He was good at fighting, and it was no problem to pretend to be a magic stick based on his memory, but it was definitely not his forte to deal with these complicated and trivial government affairs.

Fortunately, I still have Xun Yu, and Cai Wenji in the back house, so why don't I just be the shopkeeper!
"Ziyi, hand over all these account books to Mr. Wen Ruo. In the future, Mr. Wen Ruo will make two decisions about the administrative affairs of Qingzhou. You don't have to ask for instructions on everything. It makes my head hurt..."

Liu Xiao smiled wryly at Tai Shici.

Tai Shici said helplessly: "My lord, do you think that Mr. Wen Ruo is very leisurely? In just over a month, Mr. Wen Ruo has exhausted his energy and has obviously lost a lot of weight. The general feels distressed when he sees it..."

amount……

Liu Xiao's heart hurts even more when he hears that, now he has Xun You and Xun Yu, and Xun You is guarding the gate for him, and only Xun Yu is available in his hand. Talents are easy to get, but a general is hard to find. This is a good minister who governs the country. It's even harder...

"Sister Wen Ji, go to the back and cook a pot of ginseng soup, and order someone to deliver it to Wen Ruo, don't get tired..."

Liu Xiao said.

Cai Wenji smiled slightly, and replied: "Well, I'm going to prepare right now, and when I'm done, order someone to send it."

The Xun family, although the Xun family in Yingchuan is also a first-class big family in the world, but when Xun Yu first arrived in Qingzhou, his foothold was not stable. Except for two uncles and nephews, the rest are still in Yingchuan, so there are no people in the house, and it is empty. Yes very.

Xun Yu looked at the ginseng soup in front of him, and felt a warm feeling in his heart. The lord would always give himself a surprise when he didn't expect it. A bowl of ginseng soup didn't mean anything, but it contained the lord's love for him. Heart, kindness and fist, the kindness of knowing you, it's natural to be heartbroken!

"My lord, my lord!"

When Xun Yu was about to pick up the bowl and drink the ginseng soup, an attendant ran in from outside the door, "My lord, there is a gentleman outside the door begging to see you!"

Xun Yu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who?"

The attendant quickly replied: "He claims to be Yingchuan Guo Fengxiao..."

"Fengxiao is here? Hahaha, please hurry up, no, no, I will pick it up in person, you, go to the back and deliver a letter to the lord, saying that his Zhang's wife has arrived!"

While Xun Yu was talking, he had already run out.

"Fengxiao, Fengxiao, haha, you want to kill me too!"

Xun Yu came to Guo's house with a big smile, hugged Guo Jia and said with a smile, "It's been more than two months since I started studying, and you just arrived in Qingzhou. ..."

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The so-called traveling thousands of miles to read thousands of volumes of books, along the way, passing through Sili, Yuzhou, and Yanzhou, before entering Qingzhou, where all the scenery of the Central Plains is in your arms, naturally you have to taste it, if it is not for you and the company If Da Xiang calls me, I might go straight to Jingxiang and take a walk."

"It's fine when we arrive, let's go in and talk!"

Xun Yu dragged Guo Jia into his public place and ordered people to prepare refreshments.

"Brother Wen Ruo, you've lost a lot of weight over the past few years, and you look haggard, as if you've aged several years..."

Guo Jia sat down, looked Xun Yu carefully, and said in a deep voice.

Xun Yu smiled and said, "It's not like before. In the past, I was just an idle official with nothing to do all day long. Now I work for Qingzhou, but the envoy has thrown all the government affairs of the state on my shoulders. Recently, I have even promoted the strategy of farming. Gongda is far away in Jinan County, and I am burdened with all the complicated affairs. Fortunately, you are here, aren't you? Just to share some with the envoy for me, and let Brother Yu take a breath..."

Guo Jia was secretly shocked, this Liu Xuanqian actually handed over all the general affairs of Qingzhou to Wen Ruo, it seems that he has enough trust in Wen Ruo.

"Wen Ruo, I heard that Liu Xuanqian is still young and is several years younger than me. How can he work so hard to be an elder brother?"

Guo Jia asked.

Xun Yu didn't pass over the tea, but the bowl of ginseng soup.

"Feng Xiao, you are a person who lingers in the flowers, indulges in wine and sex, and is severely depleted. Now you have traveled a long distance, and you just came to Qingzhou. You can drink a bowl of ginseng soup to replenish your vitality. Let's talk about it in detail..."

Xun Yu smiled.

Guo Jia wasn't too polite, the two of them were close friends, so naturally they wouldn't be so estranged.

Guo Jia gulped it down and said with a smile: "Good soup, good soup! Haha, it seems that brother Wen Ruo is not living so hard."

“Nature is a good soup!”

Xun Yu smiled and said, "The ginseng soup prepared by Cai Bokai's daughter and the future wife of the governor of Qingzhou, if it's not delicious, what other soup can enter your mouth, Guo Fengxiao?"

"Daughter? Ma'am?"

Guo Jiachi questioned.

"Not bad!"

Xun Yu sighed, and replied: "Cai Bokai's daughter, Cai Wenji, is now Liu Xuanqian's fiancée, so that you know that brother Yu is burdened with tedious work and is extremely hardworking. The ginseng soup specially made by his wife has just been sent over, and I haven't had time yet. I took one sip and it went into your stomach. I am a filial piety and a kindness to acquaintance. Naturally, I will repay you with death. I can't say it, but I also want to drag you, the great master, into it..."
