Chapter 870 870: Dragon Slaying Knife [Please vote]
The old man murmured and repeated: "Thirty percent is too much appetite?"
The old man holding the staff glanced at Lin Feng calmly.
The child in front of me, whose appearance and demeanor are impeccable, is a child of the Lin family, but he is also a member of Shen Youli. He didn't know how much weight Lin Feng held under Shen Tang's tent, but he could figure out the latter's thoughts to some extent. Lin Feng said that 30% was too much, and he was afraid that Shen Youli thought the same. He said: "Seventy percent is a lot..."
Lin Feng said: "The Lord will not agree."
Those seemingly harmless black eyes made Lin Feng gentle and dignified, but the words she spoke were full of blood and blood: "The noble family is safe and sound, and the Lord can get 70% of it. If I kill one group and support another, I don't know." How much can I get?"
This sentence is like an unconscious whisper.
The old man holding the staff: "Your lord will not kill. You also said that 60% of the government offices in the territory are stagnant. How big is the vacancy?"
Lin Feng: "..."
< br>Educational resources are heavily skewed to one place, that is, in the hands of aristocratic families. It is very difficult for ordinary people to become apprentices and study. The level of teachers is uneven, and there are very few who can become talents. Common people with strong roots often have to join the local wealthy families and use the rest of their lives as bargaining chips in exchange for opportunities to get ahead. The local wealthy families are also willing to train such children from an early age to assist their heirs.
Lin Feng studied under Chu Yao and knows the ropes better.
The lord can recruit talents from among the people in an eclectic way, but it is hard to say what their level is and whether these people have received favors from aristocratic families. The academy founded by the lord himself was established too short ago, and it has not yet reached the harvest season, so he can only swallow his anger.
Lin Feng straightened his mind in an instant.
Whispered to remind great-grandfather one thing: "Great-grandfather, my lord started out in a rough way. Back then, only a few people in his tent were able to hold up the foundation. How could we know that we can't do it today? At that time, we were weak and were not controlled by others, let alone today. What's the situation? If you just want stability, you don't need to be a very talented person. It can also be used by ordinary people from poor families, and it doesn't necessarily have to be a big family."
Lin Feng slightly bent his eyes.
"The big fish eats the small fish, and the small fish eats the shrimp. If the lord kills the big fish and feeds the small fish, how can the small fish not be grateful?"
In the end, the lord is too kind-hearted.
Both the old man holding the staff and the old man fell into a long silence, looking at Lin Feng with strange and complicated emotions in their eyes.
"Jiaojiao, if there had been a confrontation before, I would not have allowed you to take charge of the overall situation. Instead, you would have insisted on your own opinion." After a while, the old man holding the staff asked a sharp question softly, "Would you have allowed me to let my blood splatter on the spot? ? Will you draw your sword?"
Lin Feng subconsciously touched the hilt.
Lowering his eyes: "My great-grandfather understood the righteousness well, there are no ifs."
The old man looked at him in shock, but the old man holding the staff burst into laughter. He raised his hand to stop his second brother from speaking: "Who do you study under? You seem to have said that , your teacher gave you the word Lingde?”
Lin Feng said proudly: “My great-grandfather Chu Yao, maybe I haven’t heard of it. More than 20 years ago, there was a small country named "Chu", but three talented people with a second-level Chinese heart were born in this small place. Teacher was one of them. "
Hearing "A second-level student. With the words "in", the old man holding the staff raised his drooped eyelids a little and said: "Lingde too?"
Lin Feng had mentioned it before, but he didn't pay much attention.
Lin Feng nodded: "It's a fluke."
The old man holding the stick touched his crutch and sighed: "It's a pity that your father and brother took the people south to seek refuge. If there are no other changes, they will not come back. Ling Deyou What’s the plan?”
Lin Feng didn’t know what his great-grandfather had in mind. For what purpose, why did the topic suddenly jump to an unknown clan member, and he considered it: "If you move a tree, you will die, and if you move a person, you will live. The Lin family will definitely prosper under the leadership of father and brother. If there is an opportunity, we can write to each other again in the future."
The old man holding the staff carefully pondered every word in Lin Feng's words.
He turned his head and looked at Lin Feng: "Which one?"
Lin Feng said matter-of-factly: "My father and brother are not here, so my grandson will naturally honor his great-grandfather and several great-uncles for them, and provide for you until the end of his life, so as to fulfill the filial piety of his descendants. Although the children of the Lin family are far apart, they are still in the same spirit, and so are the grandchildren." Count it as one.”
For father and brother, count it as the Lin family of a certain place.
This side of the clan belongs to the Lin family in Lingzhou.
The Lin family in Lingzhou, even if it’s just her and a few old people.
She seemed to be worried and asked the two elders.
"Did your grandson say something wrong?"
The old man holding the stick grasped the stick tightly and said with a smile: "No, Ling De is not wrong. You said it very well. Your teacher and your lord also taught you well. Very good. The mark Lin left on you should not and cannot be It's good for you to be a burden that binds you..."
Lin Feng bowed and saluted: "My grandson still has something to deal with, so I will leave first. If my great-grandfather has anything to do, he can send someone to summon him."
As she reached the door, she stopped.
“Jiao Jiao grew up under the watch of my great-grandfather and was taught by her mentor. She cannot commit such an act that goes against human ethics like parricide.”
After that, he lifted up his skirt and strode out of here.
The old man holding the staff sighed quietly: "If Lingde were my son or my grandson, the Lin family would not have fled south."
Back then, when the war was raging here, Lin was the only one in the local area. The clan chose to move to seek refuge, and many of their fields were sold at low prices. It's not that I don't feel distressed, but it is helpless that Lin himself is not as good as the previous generation, and his support until now depends on a few good seedlings adopted by the private sector.
Just kindness cannot bind them for long.
Protecting Lin for twenty or thirty years can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous act.
If he continues to stay, he will be swallowed up by enemies or a covetous family at some point. He can only cut off his tail to survive. A few old men stayed, and the best family land was sold at a discount, so that the few buyers who acquired it could taste the benefits. He also had a mentorship for the nearby aristocratic families, so those people naturally couldn't save their face and continued to embarrass him. He thought he had no hope.
I never thought that Lin Feng would appear.
Lin Feng had been carefully raised in the house before, and her starting point was different from other men. The old man holding the staff was also worried that she would be unnecessarily soft-hearted and hesitant, but after some testing, she unexpectedly made an outstanding decision: "Now It’s not too late, hahahahahaha——”
The old man looked at the elder brother who was smiling happily.
As soon as his mind changed, he knew his plan: "Brother, Jiaojiao——"
"Second brother, she is not Jiaojiao, Lin's crescent moon is gone." The old man holding the staff stood up slowly, "She is Lin Feng, Lin Lingde! Lin's Phoenix Girl, Qilin'er!"
The old man looked at his elder brother who was suppressing his emotions and kept silent.
"Send someone to send a message to several other companies..." The old man holding the staff calmed down his excitement and returned to normal, "Explain the misunderstanding."
Every time you learn something, you gain wisdom! In the future, if you meet someone like Shen Youli who is reckless from the get-go, stop engaging in any temptations like back-and-forth and flirting, just to show the blind man.
Lin Feng also passed the news back immediately.
When Yu Zi knew about this, he clicked his tongue: "Is this the case? These rich and powerful men are also interesting. Is there anything you can't say clearly? What kind of tacit understanding, what hints? Look, don't you just put yourself in trouble?" My life is at stake.”
Lin Feng was looking through Lin’s accounts for the past few years.
Responded casually: "Those families are better off dead."
They are all the ones with the worst attitude towards the lord and the most resolute resistance. If they are left alive, the negotiations will not go smoothly. . The grasshopper who survived yesterday's operation is the most lovable. They will change their words and increase their money for the sake of their lives. They will also lower their bottom line and expectations and spit out more land and people for the sake of their lives.
Yu Zi gnawed on the cake and said, "That's true."
The pancakes recommended by Lin Feng are indeed very delicious.
Chao Lian waited anxiously for several hours.
When he learned that Lin was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Feng was free at noon and was curious about why he appeared in the Lin family, and even more curious about why Chao Lian was still alive. Although the Chao Lian in front of him looks like a knight-errant, he can tell from his attire that he is paying great attention to his filial piety. This filial piety should be related to Gu Zi's sworn brothers. "It's a long story."
Chao Lian didn't hide anything, he explained everything.
"Fourth uncle, he is still alive?"
"Still alive."
Lin Feng, who has always been emotionally stable, rarely could not control his inner agitation. The nightmare night a few years ago still appears frequently in my dreams today. She watched her relatives being slaughtered one by one, but now she knows that there are still people who survived...
That feeling is beyond words.
In the spirit of courtesy, Lin Feng also told Chao Lian some news that the outside world didn't know: "It's better not to go to Shangnan. Gu Gong's relatives have already been secretly transferred, and now it's all in vain. The bad news of Gu Gong reached the rear, Qi Zhubu was worried about their safety and transferred them to Sibao County early."
Lin Fengru. After saying this, Chao Lian, an honest child, did not think about controlling this behavior, and said excitedly: "Is this true? If the eldest brother is still alive and knows that his sister-in-law, nephews and nieces have all been taken under the wing of Shen Jun, he can rest in peace. ! "
In the eyes of everyone in the Shangnan family, Shen Tang is as white as his eldest brother! In Chao Lian's view, his sister-in-law and the others were protected by Shen Tang and were as safe as they were protected by Gu Ren himself. Mr. Shen can definitely provide a stable world for orphans and widowed mothers.
Excited, Chao Lian thanked him again and again.
His enthusiasm and simplicity made Lin Feng uncomfortable.
How could Lin Feng not see what Qi Shan was planning?
I just want to control Gu Ren’s relatives so that I can justifiably take over Gu Ren’s political legacy in the future. Even if Wu Xian wants to rob him, the lord's side will be able to show off his skills and make his plans loud and clear. In Chao Lian's opinion, they were doing good deeds...
Lin Feng forced out a sweet and harmless smile.
The eyes looking at Chao Lian were also kind.
"Nvjun Lin, if Chao goes to Sibao, he can see his sister-in-law and the others?" Chao Lian's eager mood eased a lot.
Lin Feng nodded: "Of course."
Chao Lian stayed in Lin Zhai for several days.
After Lin Feng confirmed that things were settled, he set off.
Both the Shijia and Shen Tang received secret messages.
The two reactions were very different.
The aristocratic family was furious and sent people overnight to find out which family's fool was loose-mouthed and caused Shen Tang to have such a big misunderstanding! His misunderstanding directly affected the four families! Shen Tang's mood was stable, his apricot eyes widened, and he was forced to gain knowledge.
“Is there such a tacit understanding?”
Looking around, no one knew.
No, someone still knows.
I returned to my ancestral home a while ago, and by the way, I did some ideological work on the local aristocratic families and learned about the situation of the local government officials! You know, he is the head of the Xie family! Before Zheng Qiao came to power, the Xie family was also ranked high in the local area.
Ever since Xie Qi and his wife became hostages, the Xie family has been wilting.
"Indeed."
Shen Tang was shocked: "Why didn't you say it?"
Xie Qi said: "You are so resourceful, Qi thought that this move must be for the master. The result of careful planning with them..."
First, give the disobedient family a showdown! The aristocratic family is used to being domineering in the local area, and they are arrogant at heart. They will definitely complain about the master's background and look down on her. The Lord first uses force to shock them and dispel their arrogance. This process is normal.
It is also convenient for you to bargain after you come to me.
A few people who were not on a business trip: "..."
Xie Qi immediately lowered his head, reducing his sense of presence.
I am afraid that my colleagues will hate me if I am slow.
Shen Tang rubbed his brows: "Then what should we do now? According to the tacit agreement, the family wants 30%. 30%, why don't they rob? They want 30%, and I, the future leader of the country, am a Seventy percent of the country’s leaders? Still not enough killed?”
The donations that came one after another did not make her happy.
"Shizang, did you make any sound after you went back?"
Xie Qi was almost dumbfounded.
The Lord wouldn’t want to use one of his own people as a model, would he?
However, even though he was cautious, he took out a copy of the accounts from his sleeve and presented it to Shen Tang. This account is the record he made when he went back to inspect the family's farm house. It says the people of the Xie clan, land, tenants, servants...
Shen Tang frowned after reading it, then raised his eyes to look at the thank you.
Xie Qi raised his hand and said: "Return to my lord, Qi and his wife have been held hostage in the capital for many years, and the affairs of the clan have been taken care of by the clan elders, so that the management has been lax and has caused the breeding of moths. This time I go back and examine the bad debts over the years. Eliminate the internal thieves, and the results are all here."
He failed to notice in time that the conflict between Shen Tang and the family was also related to these things, and he focused all his energy on it.
All illegally obtained properties were seized.
Diao slaves and even clan members who committed crimes were all imprisoned.
All tenant households were re-enumerated and registered.
He was so scared that he couldn't sleep a whole night.
The Xie family really gave him a big surprise!
Shen Tang closed the copy of the accounts and said in a tone that showed no emotion or anger: "You and your wife have had a hard time these past few years. You are not to blame for the internal problems of the Xie family. These things have been done well, but I want to know, How much can Shizang accept as the head of the family? "
Let her be mentally prepared before she bids again!
We must definitely press the psychological bottom line of the family!
Xie Qi’s forehead was covered with sweat at some point.
He swallowed: "Lord, Qi has a word!"
Shen Tang said: "You say."
Xie Qi obviously expected this scene, and had already Well prepared: "I thought it would be enough for each family to keep their own clan fields. However, the number of clan fields is uncertain. In recent years, the accounts of clan fields can be checked, but it is difficult to trace the old ones..."
Who knows that these clan fields are really legitimate?
If each family is allowed to retain their own clan land and hand over other properties, the real proportion will probably shock Shen Tang! Xie Qi also knew this method, but his lord would not agree, so he had other ideas: "In that case, why not hand it all over!"
Shen Tang: "..."
Xie in front of him Who took the weapon away?
Do you still know that you are the head of a noble family?
Just when Shen Tang suspected that the Xie utensil was a rare second and fifth son of a family, he added: "After it is handed over, the number of people in the clan will be counted, and the clan land will be returned to the clan according to the number of people at that time. Regardless of male or female, everyone will get a share. For the same amount of clan land, the amount is based on the land needed to support one person...it can be more appropriately..."
Shen Tang held his chin and thought for a while.
“It seems like Xie’s accounts are very bad...”
What’s the difference between this and causing trouble in the underworld for hundreds of years?
