Da Song: Possessed by Overlord at the beginning

Chapter 66
Gao Cheng, who hadn't spoken at all, could not help but sneer in his heart when he saw the situation in front of him.

The law does not blame the public, so many officials oppose it, it depends on what you can do, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, in this Terengganu, everyone who is not sleepy has to lie down obediently.

Chao Tian watched with cold eyes, seeing more and more officials coming out, the number has reached more than 30, so he sneered.

D?Do you think I won't dare to punish you if you don't punish the public with just one sentence? It's a joke.

"I'm not discussing with you, but an order!"

"Come here, arrest all those who just objected, and interrogate them severely. All those who committed crimes, corrupted the law, and corrupted the law will be imprisoned and dealt with together with Wang Kaide."

Chao Tian yelled angrily, and then a large group of Jin Yiwei rushed in, dragging and dragging away all the officials who were still opposing just now.

All of a sudden, the entire lobby of the prefect's mansion fell silent, and the rest of the officials were all terrified. They didn't expect the new commander to play cards so unreasonably, arresting people as soon as he said they would.

Gao Cheng was also confused, shouldn't it be, isn't it said that good laws don't blame the public?
Chao Tian sneered and asked, "Who else objects now?"

With the lessons learned from the past, no one came out to oppose Chao Tian's orders this time, and immediately Chao Tian promulgated a few more decrees, and this time it went smoothly, and no one stopped him.

Seeing the civil and military officials who were frightened, Chao Tian felt disdainful. Today's goal of getting rid of the majesty has been achieved, so he stopped talking, and arranged for someone to write an announcement on the few days set today, and post it, so that everyone in the city would know , and then Chao Tian took the people away.

When Chao Tian left, Gao Cheng looked solemn, and hurried back towards his home, and ordered someone to summon the heads of several major families in Dengzhou City.

When several decrees of Chao Tian were promulgated, the common people in Dengzhou City were elated and excited, and there was a lot of discussion, praising the new commander, Mr. Chao Tian, ​​as a good official who pleads for the people, Master Qingtian.

"Have you heard that all those exorbitant and miscellaneous taxes have been cancelled, even the city gate tax has been cancelled."

"Really? Don't be gossip, it's a lie."

"The government has posted a notice, black and white, with the seal of Commander Penglai on it, so how can it be fake?"

"That's really great, our new lord is Lord Qingtian."

"That's right, I heard that in the lobby of the prefect's mansion today, the Commander arrested all those bastards Wang Kaide, it's very satisfying!"

The people of Dengzhou were discussing a lot. After dinner, everyone was talking about what happened in the lobby of the prefect's mansion today.

The back hall of Gao Cheng's mansion.

The heads of several major families in Dengzhou, the Gao family, the Wang family, the Zheng family, and several other middle-level families are all here, and each of them has an ugly face.

Most of the civil and military officials captured by Chao Tian today are disciples of their families, and every decree issued by Chao Tian today is harming the interests of their families.

"This Chao Tian is too deceitful, Dengzhou City is not a place for him to run wild!" Wang Kaiming, the head of the Wang family, said angrily.

Today, Wang Kaide, who was captured and beaten by Chao Tian and the military commander of Dengzhou, was his younger brother, so the head of the Wang Kaiming family was so angry.

"However, even though Chao Tian is young, he is experienced in doing things, ruthless, and has tens of thousands of elite teachers who are like wolves and tigers. Just because of us, how could we be his opponents?" The patriarch of one of the small families Said with a sad face.

Hearing the Patriarch's complaints, everyone echoed, and then all eyes were on Gao Cheng, the current Patriarch of the Gao Family, the prefect of Dengzhou.

Gao Cheng pondered for a while, then smiled coldly, and said: "I heard that Chao Tian has the courage of all men, and he was a grassroots bandit in Liangshanshuipo. of."

"The grass bandit at the water park is a warrior. He is an expert in charging and fighting, but we have to govern the city with our big families."

"Add one piece to everyone here, basically completely monopolizing all the grain, cloth and other businesses in Dengzhou Prefecture. If Chao Tian insists on going his own way, we will drive up prices and strike the market, so that Chao Tian can't afford it."

"The people don't have enough to eat and don't wear warm clothes. The first one to scold me is not me, nor everyone here, but Chao Tian, ​​the commander of Penglai. When the time comes, under pressure, he will have to cooperate with us."

"When the time comes, a small grass bandit in the water will not be at our mercy."

When everyone heard Gao Cheng's strategy, they all looked up to the sky and laughed happily.

Immediately, after discussing the plan, more than a dozen Patriarchs left Gao Cheng's mansion with happy faces, and went back to get ready.

Commander's residence.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully capturing the military power in Dengzhou, rewarding 300 pieces of fine steel armor, [-] fine steel knives and guns, and [-] fine steel bows and arrows, which have been stored in the Dengzhou warehouse, and [-] senior blacksmiths are already waiting in the barracks. 】

Sitting on the soft couch in the back hall, Chao Tian was enjoying Li Shishi's massage, and he was in a good mood when he heard the sound of the system.

At this moment, another voice from the system reached his ears.

[Ding, the system has issued a task, within half a month, solve the landlord and bully family of Dengzhou City, and completely control Dengzhou City! 】

[Mission rewards: Shen Wansan, a great businessman in the Ming Dynasty, 500 skilled shipbuilders, refined salt manufacturing technology! 】

Hearing the mission released by the system again, Chao Tian's face changed slightly. It took half a month to solve those families and take control of the entire Dengzhou City. To be honest, the time is tight and the task is heavy.

Thinking of this, Chao Tian became a little worried.

At this moment, a soldier came over, clasped his fist heavily at Chao Tian, ​​and said, "My lord, General Li Yuanfang asks to see you."

When Chao Tian heard Li Yuanfang asking for an audience, his eyes lit up immediately, and he arranged for Li Yuanfang to secretly keep an eye on those big families in Dengzhou, it seemed that they were dishonest.

"Since there is something to do, my husband can go." Li Shishi said in a soft and reasonable voice.

Chao Tian smiled at Li Shishi, and then walked towards the study.

When Chao Tian arrived at the study, he saw that Li Yuanfang had already arrived. When the latter saw Chao Tian coming in, he stood up hurriedly, clasped his fists heavily, and said, "The general has seen the lord."

"But what's the matter with those big families?" Chao Tian waved his hand and asked directly.

"My lord's guess is true. Just yesterday, after my lord knocked the mountain and shook the tiger in the lobby of the prefect's mansion, Gao Cheng couldn't hold back and called the heads of more than a dozen families in Dengzhou City overnight to discuss matters.

"We don't know what their plan is. I'm afraid the plan is not small. After the general learned the news, he hurried over."

Li Yuanfang stood beside Chao Tian and spoke truthfully.
